EMPLOYEES ANGRY.
A Poor Boy IN the Bull Pact DRY Loses
His Earnings.

If the conversation along the
rail road Saturday evening
meant any thing, there was
great Indignation among the
employees Of the Bull factory,
caused, it would appear, by the
failure Of a poor boy, who work
ed for a pittance and who was
the only support of a widowed
mother, to get his money. The
pay master, itseems, has a way
of calling the roll and pitching
out the envelopes, like, the en-
ployes said, throwing bone to
a hungry dog. The poor lad
was detained a moment for
some cause, and not being there
to answer to his name, some un-
principisd negro answered for
him and stole the money. The
pay master refused to make it
good, and the poor boy, after a
hard weeks honest toll, went
to his cheerless home heart
broken and empty handed.
1t may not be any of our bus,
mess, but we print the story as
we heard it, hoping it may
catch the eye of the directors
and that such abuses of author
ity may be put a stop to. "The
laborer is worthy of his hire"
and this poor lad should get his
scanty earnings.
