"hen Cheaper Than Shingles,
From the American Nonconformist.
In an article in the January number OF
the Arena on THE Sweating system in
Philadelphia. ," written by Rev. Frank NJ.
Goodchild, the author says: "one man was
asked to repair the roof over his worknen.
1t was giving them rheumatism, asthma
and consumption. lie said: "Men are
cheaper than shingles; no sooner does one
drop out than a. dozen are ready to take
his place"
We do not intend to dwell upon the brti-
tally OF this expression. The man simply
said what many others think and do not
say. or II they don't think 1t they act
upon this theory. The question for us IS
simply: is It true that men are really
cheaper than shingles? Alas, 1t Is true.
Shingles cost money. men do not Men
can be had for nothing. If a workman
dies 1t does not cost his employer "a single
cent to put another one in his place. Dur
ing times Of slavery that was different
A man had to be bought Economically
speaking, free labor is cheaper than slave
labor. Tho slave has to be maintained
whether he IS working or not the free Ia
borer gets nothing unless he is at work
The slave represented a .capital4investsd
which had to be taken care Of; the free
laborer represents nothing. In our age an
industry cannot be developed with slave
labor. u IS too dear.
1t recently happened in one Of the coun-
ties Of our state that a woman whose
husband was. with mis- horse killed by a
railroad train recovered 10 cents damages
for her husband and $50 for the horse.
Probably because men are cheaper shan
shingles.

Fred Sem Of Philadelphia was one OF
tho largest exhibitors Of King Charles and
apancse spauiels.. He also exhibited soy
eral Yorkshire terriers. When Mr. Sem
arrived az the show shortly after o'clock
this morning he found two Of his dogs
sick. In very few minutes others showed
signs OF illness. He became alarmed and
sent for a veterinary surgeon. Before the
su geon arrived the TWO dogs first taken IN

after 3 O'Clock this morning. when he left
for breakfast. The poisoning was dis
covered just after he returned. IIt insists
that the dogs were all right when he left
He is Of the opinion that the poison was
administered In the shape of a liquid. The
detectives are busily at work but have no
clew TO work upon.
II was at first thought It was a personal
enemy of Mr.. and Mrs. Sem, but later in
the morning the bun terrier Pete. owned
by Thomas H. McCaffery and valued At
$1,000 developed unmistakablc evidence
of poisoning. Dr. Glover took prompt ac-
ton in Pete's case and Blthough the dog
is in a bad way, hopes are entertained of
his ultimate recovery. The bull-terriers
are CHARTERED in the arena, while the toy
dogs are benched IN the balcony.
Superintendent Mortimer at once placed
