THOUSANDS STARVING.
UNEMPLOYED AT ST. JOHNS
MAKE A DEMGNsTRATION
Destitution So Great That Govern
ment Aid Is Considered
Necessary.

ST. JoHN's, n. F.. Jan. T. This
morning a crowd of a5ont 5000 work
ingmen who were thrown out Of en-
ployment by the financial collapse gath.
cred before the legislative chambers.
Later they formed into line and paraded
the principal streets. AT the head Of
the procession was borne a white flag
bearing the words Work or Bread"
The movement created CONSERVATION
at first. The police prepared to dis.
perse the crowd, but as their actions
were peaceful nothing further in this
direction was done. After hOotiRg the
government the procession went to the
dry dock where is berthed the British
war ship Tourmallne, which was sent
here to help preserve order. A com
mittee of the unemployed boarded the
ship and represented 10 Capt. PeOre
how they and their families were starry
ing. gThey declared that they were
willing to work, but if no work was
available they insisted that the govern
ment should feed them. They threat
ened to take the necessares from the
stores. Capt. POOre intimated that such
attempts would be repressed with
stern hand. his orders being to Dre3erye
the peace, and to allow no interference
with private property. He. how
ever, expressed his willingness to-
help the workingmen as far as
he could. He promised to write to the
government, representing their case
and urging that help be extended to
them. lie said that he would have an
answer tomorrow to his letter and
would communicate il to them. With
this assurance the delegation with
drew.
Starvation is becoming more general
daily. The government was waited
upon by "a committee OF the clergy Of
the Marcus church. In reply to the
committee the government said that ar
rangements were making to provide
employment for the relief of the people.
Lady Obern's committee started two
soup kitchens today, one in eacn end of
the city.
Protested bills of exchange to the
amount OF thousands of dollars were re
turned by yesterdays mail. The ress-
pue during the past month was not g

spending month of last year.

HE BURIED NASBY.
Pastor McCune Has Something of
a Record Himself.

The successful candidate for chaplain
Of the house has a record to which he
may we'll point with pride. He was
editor of the Toledo Blade twenty years
ago, and had large influence in shap~
ing the tendencies Of that paper toward
temperance reform of a practical char
acter. He spoke the words with which
the mortal remains of ID. R. Locke
petroleum Y. Nasby) were consigned
10 earth, and was bosom friend of
that much-admired hum Orist. The
gentleman In question is Rev. Rob-
ert McCune, of Worthington. He is
of mature years and impressive bearing.
and has had the substantial backing of
big-framed and big-hearted Dan Shell.
In working for his man Dan approached
every member in practical way, prom
ising the prayers would be short and ef-
fective. To one of his friends Dan pri-
vately remarked tnat he didn't really
expect MAC" to aecofHpiish the regen-
Grafton Of the house, but be stood as
close to the authorities as any parson in
the Northwest, and had no l1esitaucy in
tackling the Job, big as 1t was.

election without pledges of any kind.

Edwards, Gilbertson and Colby, of Cass,
we're not present, nor were the Grand
Forks delegates.
At the meeting of the new board of
railroad commissioners this afternoon

for some time superintendent of the
Missouri division of the Northern Pa
eific, and later master mechanic Of their
shops at Fargo. Since the strike last
summer he has been uneasy in his posi-
ton, and finally decided to resign, which
especially well fitted for the place. j..

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. Z. = The
Legislature of California convened to-
day. The Republicans have a majority
in both houses, and elected temporary
officers. The new members were sworn
in today in both branches. Gov. Budd
today received from Attorney General
Hart an opinion in which it is asserted
that there can be no gubernatorlal con-
test before the present legislature, and
that the oath of Office must be admins
tered to Budd. The opinion declares
that the section of the political code
which provides the manner Of the
gubernatorial contest before the legisla-
ture is unconstitutional in that 1t con-
ferS judiciary powers on the legislature.
The Democrats are arranging to have
Mr.. Budd sworn in tomorrow, in Joint
session Of b0tn houses. Prior to the
joint session, however, the two branches
will meet separately, when the Repub-
licans may Introduce resolution post
poning the inauguration pending the
appointment Of committees from each
house to investigate the charges of
fraud in connection with the guberna-
torial election. The main legislative
interest Is the rivalry for United States
senator, ballOting for which will prooa-
bly, be commenced next tuesday.

This closed the speechmaking, and

The Terry amendment was voted on
first and was defeated-54 10 Oh.
The Sperry amendment was also de-
feated-l3 to 20. The last vote was re-
garded as significant in showing the
limited strength of the plan to issue

original resolution to indorse the Car
Isle substitute bill. 1t was decided to
divide the resolution so as to have sep
arate votes on the Endorsement of the
bill aId on the instructions to the COM
mittee on rules. The first part. ind0r5.
ing the bill, was carried by vote OF 81
to 90. The second part, directing the
rules committee to bring in rule to-
morrow. was adopted without division
and the caucus adjourned.
Those Interested in the bill expressed
satisfaction IN the result, as it gave the
prestige of caucus Endorsement to the
Carlisle bill.

characteristic story is told by a we'll
known publisher. A persistent applicant
to have his manuscripts accepted ap-
peared one day and with not little heat
demanded. you must manage to pub
lish and get off an edition of my book
and make a success of it, for / have
enough more behind it to make a fortune
for myself if this can be DONE"
Here is the key to a very large matter.
When a new book is successfully launched
. deluge generally follows. In majority
OF cases publishers outputs are consid.
cred mere merchandise, and he who has
the comm ercial instinct is much better
off than he who lays great stress on mere
literary merit. In fact, fastidious lit
erary taste is o 1T of place in passing upon
the great bulk of manuscripts, for books
ere maze, nrst OF an t1ings, to sell; and
all the arts OF the tradesman come as
fully into play here as in any other line
OF merchandise.
And somehow, curious as it is, a great
number of people appear to feel called
upon TO buy and read all an authors

to have read the latest book of one who
has attained single success is some
thing to be confessed with sorrow, if not
actual shame. by members of q certain

as Swiss Family Robinson.
There are worthy new books as we'll as
old ones; but it is hateful to have some
one rattle off list and demand that one
read them if one would be ''up" in new
things. The solemn fact is that the
running through series of comm on
place stories-or even good ones if they
be OF one cast-is unprotitable even to the
utter waste OF time and decay of mind
Give us q good story from one author,
and then from another, and let us thus

plies to books of the day and not to those
which are for all time; for these are al
ways in order. 1t is to be observed how
ever, that the people who have most TO

or nothing to say about the solid and on
