WHIPPLE.

In the nomenclature of trades union
ism JAMES WHIPPLE of Olneyville is a
"dye house scab."
This dirty expression means simply
that WHIPrLE is disposed TO work and
earn what money the market foi
his labor can afford him.
He has a wife and three or four little
children TO support and is possessed OF
some respect for himself, which ex-
plains his disposition to labor even at
a time when several thousand of his fell
low workers in the Olneyville mills
prefer 10 loaf and let the other fellows
support them.
This disposition on WHIPPLE's part is
so rare, however, in Olneyville just now
that 1t has attracted the marked atten-
tion OF his comrades who are disposed to
loaf. Yesterday big crowd of the lat
ter PAID their respects to WHIPPLE by
Jeering and hooting him and
even threatening bodily harm as
ne went to aud from his
''O-NNi w BVAANtiii WHICH, III IlOoI COIllllu-
mites, would be deemed commendable,
as 1t was necessary. They pursued
WHIPPLE to his home. One of them
nunS to the breeze "A gay banner. on
which was inscribed "JAMBs WHIPPLE,
the dye house scab." They crowded
about and abused him, when he walked
abroad with the baby in the baby-esr-
riage and the other children.
1t appears that WHIPPLE had been out
of work since Thanksgiving, sick with
pneumonia, and had just gone back
when the strike came. His wife worked,
too, and the children were cared for in
a day nursery. WHIPPLE is weak
from his sickness, has nothing to live on,
unless he works, and is doubtless heavily |
in debt.
We guess the self-respecting part of |
the community of Olneyville will stand |
by WHIPPLE, if he is dye house scab-
and If several thousand loafing men do |
want to do him up for daring to work
when to loaf is the order.

THE GOLD CURE BILL.

We print in another column com.
munication from Mr.. THOMAS L. BARRY,
national secretary-treasurer of the
Kelley League, with headquarters al
Chicago
We have maintained, in regard to the
measure that our friend Judge ScoTr of
Woonsocket has introduced into the
Assembly, first, that it was not th g
business of the State TO cure drunken
ness, and second, that it certainly was
not the business of the State TO boom
what is nothing more nor less than
patent medicine, whether that is the
KELLEY Cure. the MORRILL, Cure, or
any other cure. The second objection.
however, is TO our mind not SO material
as the first.
Mr. BARRY quotes the experience in
the use OF the Kelley Cure in the ma
tional soldiers homes. We have read
this evidence before and have been
greatly impressed with it. Indeed we
do not question the value OF the Kelley
Cure, though it may be open to ques-
ton. If the Government chooses to
give the Kelley Cure TO its wards, we
are not IN a position to make obiec ton
II we were disposed to- and, at any rate,
these wards occupy a quite different
position, as related to Government, than

enness-at least SO it seems to us.
We wish, however, to emphasize the
point which we made in the observation
suggested by the claim that because the
state licenses the liquor business it
should take care of the victims of that
business, to the effect that "men can
Jump of the tops of buildings and hurt |
themselves; they can get in front of |
moving trains and they can drink them
selves into disease; but it is not the
States business to furnish the doctor"
Mr.. BARRY politely differs from us
and declares that the State does furnish
the doctor 'where the man IS unable
TO furnish one himself, AMI not only that,
but the State pays for it the
nan is taken to the hospital where he
gets the best medical treatment possible
1t the expense of the State and the same
or any disease he may contract, volun-
arily or otherwise"
This error Of Mr. BARRY offers us the
opportunity to emphasize the point we
made and wish to make. The State
oes not furnish the doctor-at least
ot in Rhode Island. Hospitals and
ispensaries and the attendance of the
MUSICIAN are supported by private ben
violence. The State, to be sure, endows
few beds but most of this splendid ,
harity is maintained by private sub
eriptton: We are Of the opinion that {,
10 application of the KELLEY cure, if {
Is desired to utilize it, should be a
lbJect for private benevolence, also J
OF for State government. ?

OUR friend, Senator SMITH of Scitu-
ate, in. moving the indefinite postpone
ment of the resolution to examine into
the condition of Kingston School before
making further appropriation for that
Institution, made the point that there is
no public demand for such an examina-
ton. Senator SMITH is correct. There
is no public demand for it. Unfortu-
nately the public has never taken any
interest at~all in the school, and prob
ably never will, so long as it is main
tanned in its present location. And.the
matter of spending Few thousand dot
lars more or less for any department of
State Is no great thing TO create a public
stir about. Public sentiment wakes up
slowly on matters of mere money, aud
Kingston School is far out Of the world,
dying Of dry rot, and long ago forgotten

ought to be interested in the school.

consider some plan for accomplishing
this desirable end.

AN IMPRESSION

From the spielkartenfest Souvenir PROGRAM.
I've been to the speilkartenfest, and sat in the

I've seen the evening dances and, likewise, the
| matinee.
| And nothing that I know of. on this round
earth, surpasses
| The beauty of the tableaux by these clever
lads and lasses.
And I'm sitting here a-dreaming yet, of all the
charming show
The whirling and the gliding Of the pareant
10 and fro,
A Kaleidoscope picture that, it seems again

With two wondrous pretty figures that will
live in memory,
To be recalled of all the host that on the stage
have played

I'm going again to see the show-I could,n
stay away!
1t matters not where shall sit, in gallery or
parquet
Ilove to watch the dancers. the games ard
froics all;
And, If cannot get seat, I'll stand against
the wall
Rather than l should lose the chance of shar-
ing with the rest
In all the wealth of loveliness that's offered
at the Fest.
And know that when tho dancing, the songs
the living whist,
And all Of that may be forgot, or lost as in n

Two pictures will remain with me that tina
shall never fade

TO OPEN C0REAN MINES.

Sy indicates Have Sent Experts for
Prospecting Purposes.
SAN FRANCISCO, September 23.-Quite
an amount of interest has been created in
local mining circles following upon the de-
parture for Corea of two noted mining en-
gineers, J. K. Eveleth of England and A.
W. Deshier of Detroit. These two mining
experts left on the last trip of the Coptic.
Both of these gentlemen are on the same
mission. though they represent different
syndicates.
1t has been learned that they have been
sent by two wealthy syndicates to inspect
Upon the sites of some of the most ancient
mines in the history OF the world. These
are in Corea and China.
A great deal of discussion concerning
these mines has taken place in late years.
and this has developed much interest in
the far-away deposits of fabulous riches
This has extended to all circles of miners
and investors. and there has been great
deal of speculation a. to the possibilities
for the development Of the mines. AS a
result, it appears that practical investi-
cation of them Is to be made.
Both Mr.. Deshler and Mr.. Evelsth were
Intercepted by local mining men before
their departure, but both were equally reti-
cent in regard to their intentions, further
tfan to admit that their trip was in regard
to the mines. Both said they were not
fully informed as to the nature of the work
in store for them. and that they would not
be until they reached the other side of the
Pacific. They have sailed under sealed or
ders. as it were.
But little definite knowledge has ever
been secured concerning the mines of
Corea, but they are reported to be very
rich in gold. They are situated in the wild
mountainous districts of the hermit king
dom, and have been worked in a prlmi-
tive way only. The rock taken out has,
however, proved to be very rich.
1t is generally believed that the King OF
Ccrea has offered Inducements to pros
pectors to develop the mines on the pay
ment to the king of a certain per cent CT
the profits of the enterprise. In fact. the
suppostion Is that the man behind the
whole proposition is Clarence Greenhouse.
formerly Of this city. who has been for
some time past the adviser Of the King OF
Corea.

He states that he notified the several
banks in this city of his appointment and
qualification as receiver, and each bank.
with single exception, stated that neither
of the companies had ever had deposits
with 1t. At one bank he was told
that their deposit had been withdrawn

heard. and it was currently reported, that
the companies, by some means unknown to
him, had removed the books and papers
early on the morning of his qualification.

be held for contempt of court, which cause
will be heard on Wednesday. He will also
