bleed he began to repent. Among his
herd was 3-year-old Jersey heifer, a
beautiful animal as near perfect as could
be found. If ever Mr.. Lawton was in
love with an animal the 3-year-old heifer
was the one. From the day of it's birth
he was greatly attached to it, and his
attachment grew strong as the animal
grew large. He took all the pains in the
world with its bringing up with the
result that it grew to be prize taker in
all the departments of the school for
three-year-old heifers. The beautiful
animal was dehorned with the rest and
it seemed to bleed more than any of the
Others. Mr.. Lawton was considerably
worried about his cattle, especially this
heifer, but being assured by those who
knew that they would be all right in the
morning, he went to bed in an easy
frame of mind and to sleep. When he
awoke in the morning his first thought
was for the dehorned cattle, and he hur-
ried to the barn. He found them all
chewing their cuds as calmly as ever
with the exception of the beautiful
3-year-old heifer, and that one was
dead. 1t was bad blow to Mr.. Law
ton. The animal was not only valu-
able one, but it's owner had become so

scarcely bare to think oft as dead, much
less the cause of it's death. Mr.. Lawton
is now more strongly than ever opposed
to dehorning cattle, and hopes all dairy
men will take lesson from his expert.

several of the manufacturers have shown strong
desire to settle the present strike soon as pos
sble Meyer Schoenfed, the leader OF the strikers,
was by no means confident yesterday that this would
result as the largest manufacturers have not YET
come forward with any proposition to better the
condition Of the strikers.
Mr.. Schoenfed sent notices to all the tafors Tor
a list of the dissatisfied judgments for wages which
they had obtained from the bosses in the last nve
years. His idea Is to show the public how the
tailors have cheated Of their wages by ire
sponslble contractors.

have voted In favor Of striking. and will receive
their wages tonight and will not return TO the shops
