THE BOOMERANG BILL.

1t has been suddenly discovered by
the house committee on labor, Wash
ington that the bill which was intro
duced early in the session by Mr..
Lorimer of Illinois, at, the request of
the labor organizations of Chicago,
and which seeks to punish employers
and corporations who blacklist labor
ing men, is likely to work both ways.
and at the request of Samuel Comp
ers, president Of the American Fede-
ration of Labor, the measure has been
held up for amendments
The bill declares to be conspiracy
againsh the laws of the United States
and the public welfare any associa-
ton, or agreement or understanding
between any two or more persons to
prevent any other person from OBJ
tanning employment and provides
that conspiracy shall. be punished
with a severe penalty Mr.. Gompers
argues that such a law would effectu-
ally prevents labor organizations
from protecting themselves. against
traits, scabs', AND other nom union
employees, and thereforethe objects
to it's passage. The committee, how
ever, does not see how it can frame a
bill that will punish corporations and
other employees for blacklisting that
will not apply in the same measure
to labor organizations that do the
same thing Several members of the
committee have taken the position
that what is sauce for the goose should
be sauce for the gander also. They
hold that fit is wrong for railroad
company to prevent a man from OBJ
tanning employment it is equally
wrong for the carpenters union to do
so.and no man has yet appeared with
genius sufficient to draw bill that
will not work both ways.

THE PLAGUE IN INDIA.

For some time everything has
pointed to the fact that India is face
to face with the most appalling Gala
nifty since the British occupation.
The spread OF the bubonic plague
came almost with dramatic sudden
ness on the famine, and created in
Europe a feeling of the greatest
alarm. Up to the present time the
two visitations have been confined to
separate areas, but it is. probable that
the plague will ere long reach the ia
mine districts, owing to the. .impossi-
bility of preventing the emigration of
the panic stricken natives, and if this
proves to be the case, competent
authorities look forward to terrible
mortality, as the plague germs will
find fruitful soil in the emaciated ma
tives. The Indian government ap-
pears hardly to have foreseen such
gigantic undertaking as $4,000, 900
people, and its ready acquiescence to
the proposition to appeal to private
charity indicates that it now recog-
nizes the inefficiency of /. it's arrange
ment.
The sympathy in Great, Britain is
now thoroughly aroused, and relief
funds have been started in all the
chief towns. The Mansion House
fund is approaching $3.50, 900, and it is
hoped that the total of the fund will
reach $4,000 900, which was the
amount subscribed for the relief of
the sufferers of the last famine.
A reporter called on the Lord Mayor
Mr.. Geo. Faudel Phillips, after the
meeting at the Mansion House. The
Lord Mayor said he was hopeful that
Americans would co operate, and he
wrote the following statement:
"The Lord Mayor of London will
receive, with profound gratitude, any
donations from the people of America
for the India famine funds. He asks

the royal family to contribute to the

the royal family to contribute to the
fund.-
From the European point of view,
however, the plague is a matter of
graver concern than the famine. All
continental governments are adopt
ing precautionary measures at the
ports, and the import from India OF
rags, linen and other articles capable
of conveying germs are prohibited,
and it is announced that a European
conference will be held at Rome to
consider the adoption of combined
measures to prevent the plague from
invading Europe.

The old man who looks out at the world
with clear and healthy eyes cannot help feel
ing great qualification at the thought that his
children have inherited from him weak
ness nor tendency to disease. The healthy
old man is the man who has throughout, his
life kept his digestion good and his blood
pure. Not one in thousand does it. Germs
go through the healthy body without effect
Let them once find Judgment or let them find
a weak spot, they will develop by the million
and the blood will be full of them. Instead
of giving strength to the tissues, it will force
upon them innutricious matter, and the man
will lose flesh and the more susceptible he is
to disease. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
eoverye is the only medicine that absolutely
and infa1li blys cures all blood diseases. 1t
isn't a edicinel for SOM one particular So
Called disease IT is d m edicine for the whole

He Knew the Enperor.

A good and true story Is going the
rounds which shows to what extent
the violent ebullitions and caprices
of the German Emperor are regarded
in his own country, says the West
minister Gazette. An English gen
tleman, it appears, was walking with
friend in Unter den Linden, and in
the course Of discussion on the
Kaiser committed grevions error
of Majestats Beleidigung.
"The Emperor's d IN fool" he
exclaimed, whereupon an English
speaking police officer tapped him on
the shoulder. and said:
"You must come mid me to ze po-
lice station
"what forr' asked the English
man.
ssMein herr did call ze Kaiser a
d-n fool" replied the officer.
mo, no. urged the cute Briton;
''it was the Russian Emperor l was
talking about"
dat will not vash," went on the
constable, ''dere is no emperor a
d-n fool except the German Empe
ror"
After which Dame Rumor has it,
the police officer and the English
man agreed to keep each others Sc
cret and parted on good terms.

PICTURED POSTCARDS.
Interesting Fad Adopted by Tourists on
the Continent

illustrated postcards are slowly
creeping into use in this country, but
enterprise and art have an opportuni-
ty here of increasing and meeting a
demand in this direction. Postcards
with representations of interesting
local scenes have long been popular
on the continent with residents, and
visitors readily fall into the fashion.
Ornamental postcards and envelopes
are constantly used by correspondents.
and postcard collecting is quite as
common as stamp collecting was in
this country some time ago. The
cards are fastened in an album, cs-
pecially made for the purpose, or ar
tistically arranged in groups on walls
and tables. Our illustrated postcards
will probably be made more varied as
the taste grows, and with art and
technical schools on every hand, there
is no reason why they should not lead
to the establishment of a new depart
ment of industry. There is certainly
no more ready or pleasing way by
which a friend can give his CORE
spondent an idea of his surroundings.
Many of the great publishers are now
issuing views of English cathedrals
and other places of historic interest
and not few pretty landscapes. Some
hotels, too, are using cards with views
calculated to invite customers But
people in this country generally use
the plainest paper and postcards. On
the continent the sales of these in
teresting little works of art are
enormous, and it is stated an attempt |
to get one better will be made by enter
prising manufacturers there who
contemplate reproducing works of
the old masters in miniature. Firms
in London who are connected with
German publishers say they sell a
vast number Of these ornamental post
cards abroad, and that their customers
greatly value them.-London Tele-
