LONDON, December 17.-That Or
ganized labor is not always uDgrateful
toward those who have devoted the

ooted trades union leader and at one
time labor member of parliament for
Bethnal Green, one of the London
districts Mr.. Howell, who is car
penter by trade, is over sixty years of
age, and IN his prime had a great re-
putstion as an organizer and orator.
A portion of the purse has been applied
to the purchase of an annuity that will
keep him from want for the rest of his
days, while the balance has been pre-
sented to him in casb. 10 q pathetic
letter acknowledging the testimonial,
Mr.. Howell says that he never sought
riches and never made money out of
his public work, and that only now, for
the first time in his long aud active
public life in behalf of the masses, has
ne been able to feel that his bread is
