Jail at Atlanta Thursday, by Commission
er Broyles of the United States court. The
cause of their trouble seems to have been
a desire to rid their neighborhood of the
whisky traffic. The government authori-
ties claim that l.. A. Couch, +. J. Entrek-
en- and j. b. Henslee went so far in their
ty to break open govern
ment distillery. This charge the REFORM
ers deny but they admit that they are
members of Standing Rock church in good
standing, and that they were engaged in
efforts 10 get whisky out of the neighbour
hood. II is said that the congregation de-
cided that the manufacture of stimulants
must be removed by any means be 1t
legal or illegal II then appears that
Couch, Henslee and Entreken were the
committee selected for the destruction of
the government still, owned by J. s. Nor
gan. Mr.. Morgan got wind of the eff
fort in the nick of time and he reached his
at the doors and knock off the locks. He
shot at them, and they fled at his coming.
Morgan believes Couch, Entreken and
Henslee to be the men.

A Peculiar Case
PHYSICIANS PUZZLED BY THE EY-
PERIENCE OF MRS. BOWEN.
The Episcopal Hospital Said She Haa
Consumption.


Consumption.
(Fro71 he Record Philadelphia. Pa.)
Last July the Episcopal hospital admitted
. woman whose pale and -maciated face and
racking cough proclaimed her the vic
tim Of consumption. She gave her name as
Mrs. Sallie q. Bowen. wife Of Vim. G.. Bowen,
residence, lS49 Meighan ST., Philadelphia.
The case was diagnosed and she was told
plainly that she was in an advanced stage
of consumption. The examining physician
even showed her the sunken place in her
breast where thecavity in her lung was sup
posed 70 exist. She went home to her family
a broken, dishearteaed woman with death
staring her in the face. That was the begin
ming Of the story, the end was told by Mrs.
Bowen, who no longer expects 70 die, to
reporter VINO visited her home.
The first symptoms Of consumption came
In the form Of terrible sweats, both night
and day. From April until September /
was constantly cold and kept wrapped up
in blankets through the hottest weather. A
terrible cough took possession Of me, my
breast was sore 10 the slightest touch, and
my limbs were like cold clay. The hardest
rubbing with the coarsest towel would not
create the slightest flush, and the least
exertion would 50 exhaust me that | could
barely gasp for water.
~ went 70 the hospital in July and they
diagnosed my case as above stated. IL
was when the clouds were the darkest
that the first CLINT Of sunshine came. Mr..
Shelme-dine, friend, who lives around at
1874 Clementine st., said 10 me one day, Mrs.
Bowen did you ever try DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People? / had never heard of
the medicine but in my condition could not
turn a deaf ear TO anything that offered re-
lief IL was after considerable thought and
investigation that concluded to discontinue
all the medicine | was taking, including
cod liver oil, and depend entirely upon
Pink Pills. / began TO take the pills. at
first with but little encouragement The
first sign of improvement was warmth
and a tingling sensation in my limbs.
Finally the cough disappeared, my chest
lost its soreness and began TO gain flesh
until was fifteen pound heavier. All this
/ oweto DR. williams Pink Pills and / can
not praise them too highly"
Mrs. Bowen is a Kindly faced lady Of
middle age, a church member well-known
and highly esteemed. She looks to-day,
well and strong and il seems almost inn
possible that she was ever given up by en-
inent physicians as an incurable consump-
tive. Yet such is the case beyond all dis.
pute.

Freaks and Hypocrltes.

Freaks and Hypocrites.
There are surely more freaks outside OF
the museums than inside Of them. Here is
a set of freaks who style themselves Mt.
Tom Council No. 10, of the American Order
of Steam Engineers, and the first plank in
their newly adopted platform and declara-
ton of principles is lie. 1t reads: ''Be-
lieving that ability will bring its full value
in this country, this order shall at no time
take part in strikes, nor interfere in any
way between employer and employee
Aside from the ignorance and lickspittle
spirit apparent in this declaration of dog
ish servility to the bosses, they give them
selves the lie by declaring further that the
object of this new freak organization is
ITO assist members to obtain employ
ment.'' Truly, from the sublime to the
ridiculous is only one STEP If ability
will bring its value in this country why
assist members to obtain employment?
Why not let them wait until their ability
brings them its value?
Here is another fraud that needs ex-
posture How our goody goody go to-
church on Sunday and skin EN- on Mon
day Christians will lie to save penny
and commit perjury to keep dollar from
going into the Golfers OF somebody else .
1t has been public secret in Holyoke for
many years that the Holyoke Water Power
Company, which owns nearly one half o.
Holyoke. succeeds in shutting the eyes Of
the tax collectors as to the real value of
the Water Power Company's estate upon
which taxes ought to be paid.
A little fractional fight in this city in which
the Treasurer of the Water Power Com
pany has been involved has brought out
statement from the Chairman Of the Board
of Assessors that the land of the Water
Power Company is worth 81, 800, 900, while
the company itself has made sworn state
ments that its land and water power is
worth only s35l, sos. Such figures will be
splendid campaign arguments next fall, and
we record them now without further COM
ment They will keep. M. RUTHER.

prospect Of the Matabele giving as good

rebellion of the Matabele must come as
sad surprise to the good Christian people who
had allowed themselves to be persuaded that
the conquest Of Matabeleland had been
effected in the best interests Of the Mata-
belle, in order to relieve them from the
tyranny Of Lobengula, and out Of con-

natives evidently do not appreciate the
benign rule Of Cecil Rhodes and. his fellow
brigands of the Chartered Company. There
are but two reasons for regret in this bust

belle is sure to be ineffectual and, second,
that they will no. be able to settle accounts
with the ruffians who have been brought to

The Street Railway Employees.

The Street Railway Employees.
The police are determined to prevent the
street railroad men Of Philadelphia from
receiving 81 day for ten hours work.
The police are appointed by the crty
government, and the city government is
elected by the voters Of Philadelphia, and
IS out of every 100 voters are workingmen.
If those workingmen had only 10 per cent
of horse sense they would elect men who
are in favor of the demands of workingmen,
and these would appoint policemen who
would not dare to prevent honest working
men from demanding 81 day for ten
hours hard labor. VIVA. is to prevent
any sensible workingman from seeing the
point in this argument? The Labor fckirs?
To hell with the fakirs fire them out! AS
to the street railroad magnates not bsing
able to pay 81 day that is all lie. They
are able to buy foreign princes for their
silly daughters and fast horses and women
for themselves, so they are able to pay 81
day all right, only they don't want to dc
1t, that's all. If they are not able to pay
it, the people can run their street railways
themselves if necessary.

The Ethical Congress.

This stagnant Lithean pool Of crime, pros
titution and vagabondage was relieved last
week by an event which will pass into his
tory as the Ethical Congress. What beau
tiful sight was within the classic precincts
Of Memorial Hall-the fashionable attire of
the ladies, the floral decorations and the
self confident manner Of the gentlemen!
They gave vent to long discourses on how
the young should be taught and on the
ethics of the home. They made little or no
mention of the fact that Thousands Of their
fellow countrymen were being robbed OF
their education in their childhood by the
pernicious social system that this band of
Ing. How long could these fashionable
parasites practice the ethics Of their own
teachings if their lives were passed in the
dull routine of monotony Of the class upon
whom they live? Did it ever occur to them
and their nigh priest, Adler, that to masti-
cate and digest their menu Of ethics we
must have conditions, and that if we had
the conditions we would have no more use
for their ethics than they?
sect off our backs and we'l II help our
selves.''
How they bewailed the fact that so few
workingmen were in the ethical movement
How they ignored the fact that part of tho
wealth that is returned to the animal with
tail and ears, who created it, is growing
beautifully smaller Is there nothing un-
ethical in that?
1t is a deplorable, but indisputable fact,
and it is as indisputable as it is deplorable,
that such characters as Prof. Adler and his
satellites have made their appearance upon
the stage of history in all ages. And to- day,
under the lofty titles Of the intellectual part
of the middle classes, they are the ana
logue, the economic descendants, of the
hangers ON and the court testers OF the
feudal ages.

Painting by Machinery.

Painting by Machinery.
The Builder, in the course of an article
on the invention Of painting by machinery,
says: "At the Barry Docks some expert
ments were recently gone through which
served to point out the uses and advantages
Of the new invention, especially in the
saving Of labor. The iron hull of large
trading vessel had been prepared for paint
ing, and the apparatus was set to work.
Nine square yards were painted in about
seven minutes, and the work seemed, on
inspection, efficiently performed. sue
cessful trial was also made with non
corrosive paint, which is hardly to be used
by hand on account of its quick drying
properties. A visit was next made to the
Barry Docks Wagon Shed, where a rail-
way wagon, which takes man two hours
to paint with one coat, was efficiently
covered in sixteen minutes by the new
machine. Experiments were then made
on various classes of goods and ornamental
surfaces. Ordinary doors were painted
with rapidity, quite smooth surface, in
which, of course, no brush marks were to
be distinguished. Stenciling on wood and
plaster was also shown, and also the paint
ing of carved woodwork, such as mantel-
piece. The painting of raised and EN-
bossed surfaces, such as lincustra, showed
that in many respects, besides the saving
Of labor, smoother and truer coat is the
result than in ordinary hand painting.
We think that there is certainly future
before the new invention.

Sunday Schools for Labor's Chill
dren.
Miss Morris letter in London Justice
tells of practical ways of gathering our
children into Sunday Schools Thoreau
says: "Let two young men travel together
over the world, the one without money,
earning his means as he goes. the ot.Ser
carrying bill Of exchange in his pocket.
1t is easy to see they could not long be
companions Those can not long be COM
panions whose economic conditions are
directly opposed. Hence there is a crying
need for education of Labor's children
beyond the general education Of the day.
Opposite economic conditions will create in
time special culture. Socialism recog
nizes that economic conditions create classes
but looks forward to a time when these
conditions will become equalized by
operation of law, and when no natural
difference will create class lines. That
happy time is not yet. At present all the
means of culture and systematic education
which we have of whatever sort, have been
devised by propertied middle class. There
have always been propertyless people, but
nothing to signify in the aggregate. Now
there is fixed propertyless class of large
proportions in this new country. 1t is not
wise for it to try to keep step, which it
can't do when it would, with the
propertied class. There can be no real
companionship between the two classes
Labor has its own mission, and to that it
must be faithful. Up to now Labor has
worked for its improvement, strictly on
economic lines The wealth it creates
supports our present school system, but
limited time prevents the children of Labor
from getting much out Of it. Labor
children need different methods of school
ing and culture. Sunday is Labor's day.
There are SO of them in year. If four
hours of each Sunday were spent in social
groups devoted to moral and intellectual
culture, it would be more time than one
gets in year. course Of study in the city
evening schools This time, if not so used,
is as bad as wasted. The years go by and
we have nothing to show for all these
hours There is nothing laborious in
thought and study. 1t has been made to
seem that there is by the hard and-fast

Municipal Ownership.

Berlin is said to be the best governed city
in the world. Its streets are the cleanest,
its pavements the best; yet Berlin, by
owning the gas works, electric lights,
water works, street railways, city tele.
phones, and even the fire insurance-in
fact, all the public mprovements-makesa
profit every year of 5, 900, 900 marks, or ST.,
$50, 900 above all expenses. Although the
Berlin Street Railway (Stadt- Bahn) cost
about 500, 900 mile, her citizens can ride
a distance of five miles as many times each
day, for 365 days, as they wish, for only
81. so. 1t costs $3.50 to ride the same distances
on the elevated railroads in New York city
to and from work each day. In the city Of
Glasgow, Scotland, it costs only 2 cents to
ride on the municipal street railways. The
street cleaning in Denver is managed by
the city at an expense Of 49,. rs per mile per
day, while it costs Chicago, which has the
contract system, SD per mile per day. 1t
is estimated that if Boston owned the
street cas- lines, fares could be reduced to
9 cents.

1000 Street Railway Employees Strike.
A great strike of street railway employees
for an advance in wages and recognition Of
the union began here early on the morning
of May 4, tying up every line in the city.
Over 200 men went out, including con-
ductors, motormen, electrical workers and
barn men. There were not more than nine
cars left running on all the lines in the city.
The strikers assembled about the barns and
power house and hooted at the men who
were at work Extra police and Deputy
Sheriffs have been sworn in. The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor last night passed
resolutions indorsing the strike and the
affair may result in a general tie-up Of all
interests in which Union Labor is en-
ployed. The strike is looked upon as a
serious matter in Labor circles, and the
developments are eagerly awaited. No
violence is expected for a day or two at
least.

The Old Liberal Party Meeting.

The Ola Liberal Fnrty Meeting.
The Liberal Federation Conference at
Huddersfield was huge fiasco, says Kerr
Hardie. The party is rent in twain just
now over the question of organization and
free discussion, and the reply Of the Fed
Grafton has been that the organization is
perfect and that free discussion will not be
permitted. The method in vogue at pres
emit is for the Liberal Associations to send
in resolutions, and for the Central Execu
tive to frame from these such resolutions
as it pleascs, and after these have been
framed they may not be changed in any
particular and the whole business of the
conference consists in ratifyi-g the resolu-
tions so formed. No party can live i'll a
dollhouse atmospere of this kind, and so
the Radical element has revolted, and more
will be heard Of it ere long. For tie pres
emit the laissez faire Radicalism of the North
of England-of which John Morley is the
type-is the dominant factor in the feder-
ton. The new Radicals see that this won't
do any longer, and 80 they are fighting for a
change. If they succeed in carrying the
change, as they must in the end, then the
DR.. Spence Watson gang will either go
over to the Tories OF form a separate party
of their own, in which case the new Radi-
Gals will, as in France, be driven to make
terms with the 1. L. P, and the Socialist
party generally.
