FROM CLEVELAND, O.
How Some Unions Held Their Mem
bership During the Recent De-
preston.

There are some fifty unions in our city
m AIDE up of the different crafts. Thirty
five are represented in the Central Labor
union. During the recent severe depres-
sion in trade several unions disbanded
The work of building up has started, but
it is slow. The unions that have held
their membership up through the trying
times are those that pay out OF work
benefits These are as follows. The Ger
man Typographical, Cigar Makers, Anal
gamated Society of Engineers, Machin-
lists, Blacksmiths and Pattern Makers,
ETC, and Amalgamated Carpenters and
Joiners. These few unions do not
have to start anew, but are already in
the field TO take advantage of whatever
good may come out of our past evil times,
and are equipped ready for work along
lines, to build up their unions whenever
trade shall revive. which there is some
slight signs of now.
The union of the future, if it is to ac-
complish any lasting good will have to
be better supported. Its members will
have TO contribute such dues as will
establish out Of work benefits in such
amounts as will pay them better to re-
tain their membership in hard times than
to abandon their union, though it may
cost some sacrifice. The fund should be
national or interna tional, and kept equal
" divided among the locals so that all
will have the means to meet their obi
cations promptly, for failure to do so
brings distrust, and many times raises
unnecessary suspicion that brings disaster
before checked. The Amalgamated
Engineers. etc, solved the question of
out of work benefit forty-five years ago,
and equalization of funds, being interna-
tional in reality Its American and
European branches has received in eigh-
teen months $4,000. But this could NOT
have been done without thorough disci-
pine and organization. am sorry to saw
that this discipline does not exist to a
very large extent among union men as a
rule. They will raise a howl about a q
cent assessment to help some struggling
comrade. And too frequently we find
the same men setting them up for all
hands at some saloon. So long as this
STATE of affairs lasts we will have the
same old fght-not against CAPITALISTS
but against scabs. What unions we have
IN our Central body are mostly alive and
progressive. We endorsed the ten uIanks
OF the American Federation and stand hv
them as the great object that all true
union men should strive for.

from the ordinary course of nature

claim to worship is shared potentially
IN the east by every great tree that

A ROYAL MYRTLE BUSH.

From the Westminster GaZette.l
Near the principal entrance at Os-
borne there is a flower garden, in
which an immense myrtle bush is to
be seen. This has been grown from a
sprig which was taken out of the we'd
ding bouquet of the Empress Frederick
in 1858. 1t has been a rule at court
that at every royal marriage in which
either bride or bridegroom was a de-
scendant of the queen some pieces of
this myrtle have been placed in the
brides wedding bouquet. The practice
commenced when Princess Alice mar
ried Louis of Hesse at Osborne in 1862,
and it has been continued until today,
when their daughter is to be married
to the emperor of Russia, and she is to
carry a bouquet of white flowers. in
which there will be several Sprigs from
the Osborne myrtle, which have been
sent by the queen to st. Petersburg

and with very limited funds at their
command. This association is really a
Womans Labor bureau. Its object is to
ind employment for women in various
industrial departments, to relieve imme-
dIate necessities of those temporarily I'M
able to work. and to restore to seIf-re-
spect and responsibility those who
through want, ignorance and misfortune
have been led astray. The association

lies. In addition to this work We have
found situations for fitty-fcur girls, and
all of these girls who do not have pa
rents residing in the city are instructed
that their home is with US. and that they
are to come to US when out of employ
ment. On April 1st we opened our rooms
to receive such girls or women. Those

Those who have no money pay their
board by working in the sewing room.

be cared for free of charge.
The work for which the association
was first organized has not been lost
sight of. We have done what we could
for erring girls. Five of these girls have
been cared for by us in whole or in part
during the last three months. We would
open home for them tomorrow if we
had the money. When a child of d was
turned over to us by the police court,

SAVED BY A SWIM OF Is MILES.

lying close to the bark Ophir, ESsl

coming into collision with her. The

commenced to swim. as they thought,

that the wind had changed to the
west. After several hours swim they
reached the reef at BatiEi, a distance
of about eighteen miles. After a
