BREWERS To LOCK OUT.
All Union Men to Be Excluded From
Work.

New York. March 1.-The National
Union of United Brewery Employees
has issued a circular to it's local unions
throughout the country, stating that
the United States Brewers association
intends to lock out all the union men
in this city and vicinity on April 8. The
circular says that the association COM
prises all the large brewery firms in
the country. The brewers local unions
throughout the country, it continues,
have not given the master brewers any
good cause that might justify a new
attack upon the union. They have
done justice to all employers who made
and signed contracts with the national
union, and they believe that their re-
lations with the employers should be
based on mutual esteem, and such re-
spect and esteem the national union
will compel from those New York
brewers who a. number of years ago
discharged all their union hands.
The circular goes on to say: "All
brewers working with union men, and
consequently getting along harmoni-
ously with organized labor, have done
good business last year, despite the dull
times. Why. then, should the boss
brewers of New York and the vicinity
not also be compelled to recognize the
right of their employees to organize for
their own protection? To fight for and
secure such recognition is our right,
and we shall make good use of this
right until we can announce The vic
tory is ours"

MIR. DAMROSCH LOST MONEY
$500 Out of Pocket by His ST. Louis
Season.

ST. Louis, March 1.-The Damrosch
opera season closed Saturday night at
Music hall with the worst Tannhauser
that ever happened.
Paul Kalish was announced to sing
the leading role, but the hoarseness
which affected him Thursday night had
increased, and he was unable to sound
note. Fritz Ernest was pressed into
service. The young man did the best
he could, as did the others in the cast,
but their efforts to please were trying.
With the exception of William Mertens,
who gave a full voiced and pleasing
Wolfram, the others were in deep
water. The score was cut unmerci-
fully, but those who patiently endured
were not aggrieved thereat.
Mr.. DamrOsch was not on hand to
witness the agony. When Kalish threw
up the sponge the leader followed suit
and hied himself to the ST. Louis club,
leaving his assistant, Mr.. Richard Fried,
to WELD the baton.
Mr.. G. Heck, Mr.. Damrosch's assist
ant business manager, said after the
performance that the week represented
in round numbers a loss of So, 500 to the
organization.

PETERS WHIPS A BULLY.
The Congressman Drubs Coward on
His Way to Church.

Kansas City, March 1.-Congressman-
elect Peters paused while on his way to
church to whip a bully. He did the
job nicely.
1t would never do to call Congress
man Mason Peters of Kansas City,
Kan, the fighting congressman for
he is one of the greatest loves of peace
in the land. Besides, he weighs only
a little over 100 pounds and has never
developed a taste for pugilism- But
the fellow who yesterday felt Mr.
Peters fists pounding on his head had
cause to believe that he met a profess
sional pugilist out for exercise. The
bully was nearly twice the size of the
congressman, but he got his eye black
ed, his nose peeled and his trousers
well kicked, all in about two minutes
after the Second district POpulist con-
gresham got hold of him. Populism
won the day in Jig time.
1t took place while Congressman and
Mrs. Peters were on their way over to
Dr. NeePS church Sunday morning.
The were driving along the street
near the stock yards when they saw a
great big man run out of building,
seize small boy, smack him soundly
and then kick him brutally into the
street The lad howled with pain and
lay on the pavement almost helpless.
Mr.. Peters is of Kentucky ancestry,
born in Missouri and lives in Kansas.
That sort of a combination means an
inherent love of fair play. When that
great strapping fellow kicked the boy
into the street, he handed the reinS to
his wife, sprang out of the buggy, ran
to the fellow and gave him a right
handler in the face that sent him reel
ing against the house. Then he
whacked him again, gave him an up
percut and a left hook for good meas
ure and planted his boot heavily on the
hull1ing coward. Then he told the fell
low that if he ever saw him lick an
other boy he would give him thrash
ing he would remember all his born
days.
Then Mr.. Peters climbed back into
the carriage and drove on to church.
The interruption did not make them
late at the services, but 1t gave the
congressman sore knuckles.
There isn't a boy who lives near the
stock yards or is employed there who
isn't personally acquainted with Con-
gresham Peters, and is his sworn
friend. Ever since Mr.. Peters has lived
at his splendid home over in Greystone
heights, he has given the stock yards
boys an annual outing in his orchard,
and the day at the orchard IS one that
is looked forward to with great interest.
When it comes around the boys are
notified, and the colored man from
Greystone heights comes driving down
to the yards with the big farm wagon
The boys Chamber on and away they go
for the drive They are welcomed to
the home and turned loose in the or
chard and told to help themselves.
After they have Toasted they are given
a lunch at the house, and later are al
lowed to ride back to the yards on the
big wagon
