Ing the largest and the strongest man
of the two had the deputy at dlsad-
vantage and made a powerful effort
to dlaarm the officer. and would have
succeeded had not the officer used his

UNION LAnoR's REPRESENTATIVES,


Much interest has been aroused In
organised labor circles by the action
or the mass-mee;ing creating the Pro-
motive club. AS will be remembered.
the committee on organization recon-
mended that board OF directors of
thirteen be elected. twelve to be Sc.
iected by the members OF the club and
the Thirteenth to be selected by the
combined labor organizations of the
CITY. This recommendation was unani-
mously adopted by the meeting. and
has met with much favor by the va
rious local labor organizations.
AS yet no definite action has been Ia
Ken by the unions toward the selection
OF the labor representative on the
board. but this lack OF action Is in no
wise due to carelessness, but is due to
the fact that the officials OF the
Trades Assembly--the recognized head
OF the labor organizations of this city
thought II best to lay the matter be-
fore the next regular meeting OF that
body, which will be held Monday
night. II Is likely that the assembly

speculations About Them by the Other
Passengers In the Car.
1t was their brief. uncrinolined dress
skirts that drew the eyes Of the up to
date girl. A messenger boy tried to fg-
ure out how their hair staid up with
cothing SO feminine as hairpins in evil
dence. The manlike cuffs peeping above
the dogskin gloves attracted the atten-
ton of a business man, while q dude
vtarted as he caught sight of their we'll
tuilt boots. Even the conductor stared
Lard at them.
One of the girls was not SO far gone
In her masculinity as the other. The
twist of velvet in her hat showed a lin.
gering leaning toward the feminine, but
the eyeglasses, the umbrella and the
armful Of books were common to both.
All unconscious of the interest they in.
spired, the two buried themselves in
their notebooks. The more masculine
planted her feet we'll apart and used her
knees as a umbrella rack. This didn't
enhance the grace Of her abbreviated
dress skirt. Every now and then she
1ourished a liberal handkerchief that
was in curious contrast to the lacy shred
tucked into the up to date girls card
case. "Who and what were they any.
way?" the passengers asked themselves.
Women suffragists." thought the
business man.
Some of those ~dreadfully strong
minded creatures that want to vote,"
said the up to date girl to herself.
"Jingo! All they need is trousers"
was the mental remark Of the messenger
boy, while the dudes feeble brain regis
tered some such impressions as these:
