must act accordingly.

and allow the masses to hug their delu.

this reason the line between the money

distinctly drawn in this country. The
rich dared not make it as vivid as they
believed it should be; the workers would
not admit it existed, or, if it did, that it
could not keep them from crossing over to
the other side if they tried hard enough.

THE LABOR WORLD

hard toll, endurance and risk as few un-
derstand who have not gone through it
all. Men who do this mighty work
should be rewarded by the best the
world has to offer. Yet, but for their
desperate struggles in the past and their
strong organization, their condition
would be most deplorab]e. Owners, con-
tractors and bosses have shown every
disposition to encroach to the last en-
durable limit.
The colored workers, wherever they
are numerous, are used as badly as hu-
man powers can endure. Whatever the
nature of their labor, they are employed
in gangs by contractors, paid at truck
stores and driven worse than men drive
beasts of burden. 1t is seldom that any
of them ever receive cent Of money.
Their account at the truck store, with
fines, charges, etc., is kept balanced
with their meager wages. An abomina'
BILE system of fines and imprisonments
is in vogue If worker bids fair to
have a considerable balance in money
coming to him he is arrested on some
trivial charge and thrown into jail.
Sometimes he is given the farce of
trial, sometimes not. When the boss is
ready, he gets him out and charges it
up to his miserable victim, so that no
money is overdue him. The young min
er told of seeing q white man on
horseback driving negro on foot by
rope securely tied about his arms into
town to have him arrested and thrown
into Jail. He had trotted his horse six
miles, forcing the poor wretch to keep
up with him. He was painting, sweating
at every pore and seemed in great dis
tress. The white man, ripping out an
oath at every other word, informed the
bystanders that the darky had been
swearing in the presence Of women.
The method of hiring workers on in
definite terms and then treating them
so abominably that they are forced to
leave without receiving any pay is not
new or uncommon. Many respectable
people in the cities contrive to get their
work done in this way. Domestics are
engaged and compelled to work SO hard
under such degrading conditions that
they cannot endure it, leave without
giving the usual warning, and so re-
ceive not a cent for what they have
done. Fashionable dressmakers as we'll
as "sweaters'' advertise for girls and
women, keep them at work as long as
possible without stating terms and final
II offer so little that it cannot possibly
be accepted, when they are sent off with
nothing.
Unorganized workers simply have no
chance for Justice whatever. The
strength there is in united numbers can
force the employing classes to recognize
in some degree labor's rights, but alone
and at their mercy the conditions ao-
corded them are simply inhuman.

Doubles of Famous People.

From the Chicago News.
There seems to be some foundation for
the old Hindoo belief that all men have
their doubles, for most OF the celebri-
ties OF the day have their counterparts.
Her most gracious majesty Victoria is
reproduced in the person Of an old woman
employed in a north of London church

is so striking that persons go TO the
church simply TO see this woman, who,

be discovered as an impostor by the
Prince of Wales himself.

The most remarkable case, as the dou-
bles of persons in high life are usually
found in lower classes, is the resemblance
between the Duke Of York and the Car
of Russia, who. on account OF wearing
their boards the same way, are almost
indistinguishable when together.

A FAwN's FLIGHT ron LIFE.
1t Forced a Hunter Who Had Hold
of Its Tail to Let Go.
From the baltimore American.

From the Baltimore American.
Glen Flora, Wis, Sept i6.-Catching a
wild deer by the tail is not to be rec
commended as a first-class way to get ven
ison, but it is a good way for a conscien-
tious man while shooting deer is prohibit
ed by law.
The process of grabbing deer by the
tail is full of difficulty, but it is not to be
compared in that respect with hanging
on after a grab on the tail. The deer is
wary, the deer is fleet, and it's tail is
short, but in spite of all difficulty man
who is not hundred feet from me as l
write caught a young deer by the tail a
few days ago and remained a sort of
tail attachment over windfall and slough
and stump for a considerable distance.
The man was out in the forest on his
big farm looking for wildcats with an
especial eagerness on account of the
bounty of IS a cat offered by the author
tiles. AS he was wading up the creek
with pair Of old shoes protecting his
feet from the rocky bottom he espied a
fawn at a lick While he was looking at
the little spotted beauty II lay down be-
side q log, and the hunter resolved to
get the little animal alive. He knew that
If he could get hold of one or both of
the fawns hind legs he would succeed.
Luckily the cows of the farm appeared
at that moment on the way to the creek
for drink, and the fawn, evidently fire.
quenter of the pasture, seemed TO be un-
concerned after a quick glance at the
cows. Selling the opportunity, the hunt
err, while the cows were coming and
cracking branches and sticks, stole up
to the log moment later the fawn
passed directly in front of him, and the
hunter made quick thrust of his arms
to catch the deer by the hind legs. He
partly succeeded, but in the struggle that
followed, with the staring cows and year
lings as spectators, the delicate limbs of
the fawn began to slip ont Of the wise of
the human hand, and somehow or other,
in desperation, the man grabbed the
fawn's tail.
The little animal began to run, and the
hunter, who is a very strong man, held
desperately to the tail. Down an old log
ging road they went little way and
then the fawn turned in. 1t could not
run very fast with the man attached to
its tail, but the first quarter of mile was
done in good time nevertheless. About
the beginning Of the second the fawn
went over log and headed for thickei.
In spite of all, the little beauty reached
the brush and plunged In. The hunter
was scraped off and he had the pleasure
Of seeing the fawn Join its mother on
the other side Of the thicket and dart off
with her into the depths of the forest.

MY SHADOW.

have little shadow that goes in and out
with me,
And what can be the use of him is more
than / can see.
He is very, very like me, from the heels UP
to the head;
And see him jump before me when I jump
into my bed.
The funniest thing about him is the way he
likes to grow
Not at all like proper children, which is al
ways very slow;
For he sometimes shoots us taller, like an
India-rubber ball
And he sometimes gets SO little that there's
none Of him at ALL
One morning very early, before the sun was
up,
I rose and found the shining dew ON every
buttercup.
But my lazy little shadow, like an arrant
sleepyhead,
Had stayed at home behind me and was fast
asleep in bed.
