CHiCAGO'S LATEST.
Footpads Decoy a Woman From Her
Home in a Cab, and Rob Her.

Chicago, Jan. S.-Mrs. Charles
BOuschsein of Al Clark street was at
tackled by two highwaymen at Kinzie
and West Water streets tonight as
saulted and dragged from the cab in
which she was riding, and robbed.
About 10 o'clock, a cab was driven
to her home and a note was handed
her purporting to have been signed
by friend asking her to take the cab
to his home at once Mrs. Bouchsein
hurriedly dressed and departed in the
cab. West Water street is a dark
thoroughfare, and as the driver turned
north into it two men ran out from the
shadow of a building and threw open
the door of the vehicle. One of the
men threw red pepper into the woman's
eyes to blind her. She was then
beaten with revolver until she was
unconscious. Her assailants robbed
her of her iewelry. valued at $1,000,
and secured her pocket book which
contained $500. She was dragged into
the street and her assailants escaped
in the same cab. Her injuries are said
not TO be dangerous. The police are
working on the case.

POEMS THAT LIVE.
The Dreams.

Two dreams came down to earth one
night
From the realm of mist and dew;
One was a dream of the old, old days,
And one was dream of the new.
One was a dream of shady lane
That led to the pickerel pond,
Where the willows and rushes bowed
To the brown old hills beyond.
And the people that peopled the old-time
Were pleasant and fair TO see.
And the dreamer he walked with them
AS often of old walked he.
Oh, cool was the wind in the shady lane
IhaI tangled his curly hair,
Oh. sweet was the music the robins made
To the springtime everywhere
Was it the dew the dream had brought
From yonder midnight skies,
Or was it tears from the dear. dear years
That lay in the dreamer's eyes?
The other dreams ran fast and free,
AS the moon benignly shed
Her golden grace on the smiling face
In the little trundie-bed-
For twas a dream of times to come.
OF the glorious noon OF day,
OF the summer that follows the careless
When The the child is done with play
And twas dream of the busy world
Where valorous deeds are done:
OF battles fought in the case of right,
And OF victories nobly won.
1t breathed no breath of the dear old
home
And the quiet joys of youth;
1t gave no glimpse of the good old friends
or the old-time faith and truth.
T2,,+ twas q drear, of vol,tl,ful homes
And it told TO a sleeping little child
OF a boy beCzne a man.
These were the dreams that came one
night
To earth from yonder sky;
These were the dreams two dreamers
dreamed.
My little boy and l.
And in our hearts my boy and [
Were glad that it was so;
He loved to dream of days to come,
And l of long ago
So from our DIRE my boy and L
Unwillingly awoke.
But neither of his precious dream
Unto the other spoke.
Yet of the love we bore those dreams
Gave each his tender sign;
For there was triumph in his eyes,
And there were tears in mine.

The year 1897 begins with one clear

ity would have been dangerous to
business. Banking failures amounted

The Last Hymn.

The Sabbath day was ending in village
by the sea.
The uttered benediction touched the peo-
pie tenderly,
And they rose to face the sunlight IN the
glowing lighted West,
And then FASTENED to their dwellings, for
Gods blessed boon of rest.
But they looked across the waters. and
storm was raging there;
fierce spirit moved above them-the
wild spirit of the air
1t dashed and shook and tore them, till
they Numbered, groaned and
doomed,
And. alas, for any vessel in their yawn-
ing CULTS entombed.
Very anxious We're the people on that
rocky coast of Wales.
Lest the dawn of coming morrow should
be telling awful tales;
When the sea had spent its passion and
should cast upon the shore
Bits of wreck and swollen victims, as 1t
oft had done before.
With the rough winds blowing round her,
a brave woman strained her eyes,
AS she saw among the pillows a huge
vessel fall and rise;
Oh it did not need a prophet to tell what
the end must be,
For no ship could ride in safety near
that shore on such sea.
Then the plying people hurried from
'- their homes and thronged the
beach,
Oh. for power to cross the waters and
the pershing to reach,
Helpless hands were wrung in terror,
tender hearts grew cold with dread,
And the ship, urged by the tempest, on
the fatal rock shore sped
She has parted in the center, oh, the half
OF her goes down.
God. have mercy. Is his heaven for to
seek for those who drown
Loi when next the white, shocked faces
looked with terror on the sea,
Only one last clinging figure on spar
was seen to be.
Nearer to the trembling waters came the
wreck, tossed by the wave,
And the man still chung and fioated:
though no power on earth could
Gould we send him one short message?
here's a trumpet, shout away
Twas the preachers hand that took it.
and he wondered what to say.
Any memory of his sermon? Firstly?
Secondly? All, no;
There was but one thing to utter in that
awful hour Of woe,
So he shouted through the trumpet,
Look to Jesus. Can you hear?'
And aye, aye. sirl'' rang the answer
Ger the waters loud and clear
Then they listened, he is singing, Jesus,
Lover of My Soul
And the winds brought back the echo,
while the nearer waters ROLL
Strange. indeed. it was 10 hear him,
It'll the storm of life is past,
Singing bravely Ger the waters, 'Oh,
Receive my soul at last.
He could have no other refuge, Hangs
my helpless soul on Thee"
Leave oh, leave me noti' The singer
dropped at las: into the sea
And the watchers looking homeward.
through their eyes by tears made
dim,
Said. He passed to be with Jesus in the
singing of that hymn.

BUNCE'S SQUADRON.
Tt Will Soon Make Some Important
Maneuvres.

Washington, Jan. S.-Admiral Bunce's
squadron of evolution is to blockade
Charleston early in February. The adj
miral had conference with Secretary
Herbert today, and as a result his plans
for drills and manouevres of which
the rigid military blockade of Charles
ton, S. c., is the chief feature. We're
thoroughly approved and all necessary
arrangements for carrying out the pro-
posed operations will at once be in
augurated. The scheme involves the
maintenance of a strong blOckading
fleet off Charleston harbor, and the
assignment of one or more fast vessels,
including the Vesuvius. to duty as
blockade runners. Stores and coal will
be massed at Port Royal as base for
the smaller blockading cruisers, but
the battleships, and perhaps the big
cruisers. will have to take turns going
TO Hampton Roads for supplies unless
it proves feasible to serve them on the
high seas 1t is expected that the new
cruiser Brooklyn, which will be ready
to leave Philadelphia tomorrow to get
a silver service from the city for which
she was christened, is under orders
to take aboard her torpedo outfit at
Newport She will then be attached
to the squadron in time for the
manouevres. The fleet will be the most
powerful gathering in recent years, in
Guiding the battleships Massachusetts,
Indiana, Maine and Texas; the cruisers
New York. Brooklyn. Columbia,
Newark. Raleigh, Montgomery, Marble
head and Castine: the ram Katahdin;
the monitors Puritan and Amphitrite;
the torpedo boats Cushing and Erics-
son, the dispatch boats Dolphin and
VesuViuS and the transport Fern.

cording to the message the battle
ground selected is considered so much

Toronto, Jan S.-The Princess the
atre was crowded tonight to witness
the three-round sparring bout between
Jem Mace, the retired champion pu-
gilist of the world, and Jacob ScholeS,
a clever local boxer.
Several events by local men pre-
coded the principal attraction. which
was a fine exhibition of scientific tap

showed himself very active and his
quick work was much admired. This
is Mace's third visit to Canada and
his second try with Scholes.

500 600. The bank officers, however.

InspeOtion Of Factories.

The history of the development OF. the
official inspection Of factories and work.
shops In the United States Is like that
Of the history Of all social legislation.
One State has led the way by the enact
ment Of tentative measures, which 1t
has afterwards developed as dictated by
experience. Other States have profited
by the example and have taken similar
steps, The moral influence of the action
of States upon each other in the United
States Is great. A movement at first
grows slowly, but as State after State
adopts similar measures the pressure
upon others to do likewise becomes
stronger, and the movement tends to
advance at constantly increasing rate.
In the field Of the inspection Of fac
tories we are now in the midst of such
a movement. Factory inspection in the
United States Is Of comparatively re-
cent development. Though Massachu-
sets, the first State to take steps in this
direction, enacted its first law providing
for the inspection of factories in 1877,
it was not until six years later, or in
1888, that It's example was followed by
another State, New Jersey. Wisconsin
in the same year provided for inspection
through It's bureau of labor. Ohio fol-
lowed in the succeeding year, 1884. The
movement, however, once fairly strated,
has spread with increasing rapidity. In
1886 New York provided for factory in
spection. In 1887 Connecticut, Mime
sofa and Maine did likewise. These
were followed by Pennsylvania in 1889,
Missouri and Tennessee in 1891, Ill-
nols and Michigan in 1893, and Rhode
Island in 1894. There are, therefore, at
the present time fourteen States that
have made some provision for factory
inspection States Bulletin of
Labor.
This work Is left to the Labor Com
missioner in this State, although there
is enough Of 1t to be done to keep one
man busy all the year. Commissioner
Johnson is supposed to inspect the lead
ing factories in connection With his
other duties. This job alone Is worth
his entire salary, $1,000, payable quar-
terly.
The Advocate and news., 1897-12-29

While the delegates to the Nashville
convention Of the American Federation
of Labor were pounding away at their
official duties, says VIM. G. Hollister,
in the Eight-HOur Herald, the scribes
and hustlers Of the labor press were
busy perfecting an organization, which
In due time and with due formality was
Christened the Associated Labor Press
Of America. The object Of the associa-
tion Is to establish a central bureau
through which labor news OF a reliable
character can be transmitted to the
membership. The officers of the asso-
clation are: President, D. Douglas Will
son, Machinists' Journal, Chicago; first
vice president, Miss Frances L. Taylor,
Cincinnati Post; second vice president,
Warren c. Browne, American Crafts
man, New York; third vice president,
John F. 0'Sullivan, Boston Globe;
fourth vice president, John M. McDer-
mott, Chicago Record; fifth vice presi-
dent, David Black, Iron Molders' Jour
nal, Cincinnati; secretary-treasurer
Stephe s. Bonbright, editor American
Musician, Is Mercer street, Cincinnati,
Ohio.
The fnal organization was the result
Of a number OF meetings, which were
held during the noon hours, evenings,
nights, and whenever those interested
could be brought together. At these
meetings the scope OF the constitution
was determined upon, some Of the pro-
visions Of which are that writer's on
