eyes, Philip, suppose it is"
To tell the truth, the major had been
looking at cradles for week He had
prowled around all the stores in Four
teenth street and prospected all the
places in Broadway Oh his way to the
office. He saw none of the old fashion
ed cradles which rock on rockers. They
were all of the newfangled kind, with
the bodies suspended on pivots and
swinging between two uprights at the
ends. The only thing the major was in
doubt about was whether he should buy
plain swinger or a swinger with
clockwork attachment, and finally he
decided to buy one with clockwork.
The cradle came home on Friday
night. 1t was very pretty cradle, but
the clockwork was not an ornamental
appendage. The machinery was incased
In circular box of the circumference of
cheese box and half the thickness Of
an ordinary cheese. Along with the
cradle came clock key which was
about the size and shape of the bed

bedsteads were corded and put together
with immense screws. The major wound
up the clockwork. Mrs Shottguhn laid
in the baby, and off went the cradle,

"There," said the major. there's a
cradle, Cynthia. that will rock the baby
without taking up your time. All

A MATTER OF SELF-INTEREST.

Last spring the Auditing Committee
landowners along the banks of the
Sacramento River above this city and
up to the mouth of the Feather notice
that if they would repair their levee de-
lenses the board would construct es-
cape weirs. which are so much needed
to give relief in flood stages of the
river.
To this date the landowners have
taken no steps in the direction indicated,
and now the season of high waters is
near at hand. The Board of Public
Works says that unless the owners act
promptly there will be no putting in
Of the escape weirs, for whatever is
done must be accomplished before the
Legislature meets. While it may be
true that levee building cannot be
much prosecuted in the winter season,
yet the landowners can get ready and
take all the necessary preliminary steps
for rapid work the instant the season
permits.
If this is done and good faith shown
in the matter the board will also pre-
pare and be ready to put in the escape
weirs as soon as it is possible to do SO.
This is matter of self-interest to the
land owners, and it is unthinkab!e that
they will any longer imperil the beneflt
promised them by inactivity in the
premises.

ANARCHISM AND LABOR.

A female anarchist has been preach
ing her gospel of destruction in Cleve-
land, O., to large audiences. Lately she
took up the labor organizations, and
in one CT her lectures declared that in
every case the leaders in labor are cor
rupt, selfish and can be bought and sold
by the minions of bribery. This will
do good 1t will quicken the labor or
ganizatlon membership to give the lie
to her assertion or to develop its truth.
1t viii do good by showing laboring
men that anarchists have little or no
sympathy with the organized methods
Of labor, nor with labor as a cause.
The Cleveland Leader we'll says:
Anarchists mix in labor troubles only
for the purpose of using the working
men as tools for the furthering of their
schemes for the destruction of law and
order Labor has been blind. appar-
entity to the dangers of anarchy for
within the past eight or ten years
trades unionism has frequently been
brought into alliance with anarchy by
unwise and hot-headed leaders. The
sweeping denunciation of the leaders of
organized labor by one of the most ac-
tive of the advocates of anarchy is
likely to have the effect of turning
those men against the entire brood of
revolutionists.
