The Same Old Lesson.

As the Norfolk Landmark remarks,
the same old lesson is found in the
brooklyn strike. Men may quit work
themselves, but they cannot prevent
others from working, and every act of
violence is nail in the coffin of those
who institute and promote it. Six thou
sand men have voluntarily left their
employment in an effort to enforce a
demand for higher wages than their
employers were willing to pay. They
have tried by force to prevent other
men from working in their places. The
result is that the strike is over, and the
strikers are out. Work is resumed, but
by others. There is great suffering, no
doubt, and much loss of money. Prop
erty has been destroyed and the cause
of labor has been injured infinitely.

prohibited everywhere. They do not

Because of the failure of Congress to
pass satisfactory currency legislation
it is stated that the President and
Secretary Carlisle have determined up
on another bond issue, the amount to
be 800, 000,0 600, and the interest to be
per cent. No hope is entertained
that currency bill will be passed by

Methods, Church Notes.

AT cabinet meeting oi the Epworth
League last Monday evening the work
OF the various departments was dsilnite-
ly outlined by the president, and IL is
a general conviction that TO the many
young people OF the church there are un-
usual opportunities for usefulness open
ing in many lines OF Christian work.
The subject for the prayer meeting at
6:30 last Sunday evening was prayer
for Colleges" The Universities and
Colleges, with their faculties and the
students gathered in the College halls Of
our land were the subject Of earnest
prayer. The greatest schools OF our
country are Christian Institutions, and
in the classic atmosphere, along with the
search Tor truth in scientific and literary
domains, the christian life is held up as
the most conspicuous and most desir-
able achievement in any mans career.
In numerous Universities and Colleges
OF first rank the old time revival Is
annually expected, as much IA any part
OF the curriculum. And 40 the young
people OF the Epworth League, million
strong, send up their petitions that these
educational institutions may enjoy un.
precedented blessing and prosperity in
the present and coming years.
The Junior League will conduct n
Sunday evening service in the nearIuture.
The Junior meeting at y. m. Sundays
are mort delightful occasions. The older
people may profit by their example OF
feryent inthusaism and eagerness in the
devotional exercises. Such bright testi.
monies Such singing Such a host of
boys and girls 1t is an inspiration.
The ladies will give their second bi-
weekly social at the home OF Mrs. Albert
Farmer on Crystal Avenue Those who
had the pleasure 81 attending the first

rated by the ladies will not fail to enjoy

Great Decrease In Logs From Year TO Year on
the Menominee River.
As the pine timber is being cut off more
closely from year TO year by the lumber
men on this river, says the Enterprise,
the size OF the logs greatly decrease, as is
shown by the late report OF the Boom
company. The past year each log
averaged only 103 feet and in the past
five years the decrease has been thirty.
FIVE per cent. Five years ago the logs
averaged six TO the thousand feet. In
1894, an per report, they were nearly
ten and in n great many cases came
nearer to fifteen and twenty to the
thousand. One reason for this also 10
from the fact that the pine lands are
tsins cut on much closer than in early
days. when only the larger trees were cut
down. AZ the present day much smaller
trees are cut than formerly and lands
cleared OF the standing pine very closely
Trees that were considered fifteen OF
twenty years ago as no value and lett
standing, are now cut and find their
way to the mills. Pine is too yalua bl
to allow small trees to stand in the
forests.

Dan Ross. q Cruiser, Finds Evidence ofs Crime
Near Quinnesee.
Dan. Ross, a cruiser for the Hamilton
x Merryman company, made strange
discovery while cruising in the woods
around Quinnesec recently IL Was on
the Wisconsin side Of the Menominee
river. lie was walking through the
woods when he ran across four blazed
trees. To cruiser this is always an
unusual sign, and Ross stopped 20 in.
vestigate. On one Of the trees, which
had been laid bare by an axe. he was
astounded by finding the following
words: "Two hundred and fifty feet
from here lies the body OF John Munger,
killed by me. His remains are buried
between a small hemlock and pine" IL
was signed "a Hunter" Ross did not
have time TO investigate, but returned
To Quinnesec, where he told his story.
Marinette county authorities propose 10
investigate the affair. II IA man was shot
and buried as stated, il was perhaps
another headlight accident, the game law
violator perhaps fearing the consc.
quences OF his blunder buried the victim.

Deputy Sheriifs John Trombley and
Frank Ball brought three pot hunters
down from the Deer river Wednesday.
IL had been rumored for some time that
deer were being killed in that vicinity
and officers made trip up there some
time ago, but were unable TO find the

received from lumber camp in that
vicinity that the game law violators
were again at work and Messrs. from
bley and Ball departed for the scene and
succeeded in capturing three pot hunters
who had in their possession about 250
pounds OF venison. The prisoners are

Justice Rogan yesterday morning. John
Pennolier plead guilty and was SEN
