Baltimore. Aug 1.-THE indications are
that differences between the American.
Flint Glass Workers Onion and the Glass
Manufacturers Association which have
been the subject Il discussion for some
time. will be amicabiy settled before Sep
tember /. when. according to the arrange
ment between the men and their employ
ers. the regular work year begins.
President William ]. Smith. Of the Ma
tionaI Flint Glass Workers Union. was
in this city yesterday and was met by
number of members Of the local union.
among them Mr.. Thomas F. Brennan.
Mr.. Smith stopped here on his way from
Philadelphia, where he attended an i'm
portant conference OF shade glass makers.
ard was on his way to his home in Pitts
burg, Pa
'As you understand said President
Smith, "the American Flint Glass Work
ers have made a demand on the manufac-
turers for an increase of II per cent over
last years list. This would make the pay
of the men just equal what 1t was In 1882
and 1893 / want this understood. as con-
fused statements in some papers make 1t
appear that the workers are asking some
thing unreasonable, You can say that be-
fore the first week Of September settle
ment will be reached between employers
and employed, which will end all dis
cussion. The settlement VIII ne entireiy
satisfactory to all parties.
The best feeling prevails between the
manufacturers and the employees, and all
are now working with view to mutual
benefit The majority Of the employers
know that the Glass Workers Union has
for the past five or six years spent thou
sands of dollars and have used all nom
orable means to protect and assist the
manufacturers. Most of the manufactu-
rers used to complain that non-union
competition was the great bane OF the
business, and that on its account they
were not able to treat the employed as
well as II they had to compete only with
union labor To meet this we have gone
to the expense Of getting a union label,
which will be placed on every piece OF
union-made glass. and agents of the
union have been employed to see that the
non-union competitors are shown up, so
that there will be no mistake as to what
is and what is not union-made goods. we
have secured a great deal OF legislation
throughout the country, and are working
to get more"
A number of Baltimore glassworkers
bore out Mr.. Smiths statement. AL the
last meeting of the local union It was de-
cided that the best thing to do would be
to go along quietly and await a settle
ment one of them said. The president Oh
the local union is Conrad Waltman and
the secretary is George II. Shaw. The
local union is composed OF chimney
workers. shademakers, lampworkers.
moldmakers. electric-bulb workers. punch
tumbler workers. presswOrkers. engrav-
ers. cutters. stopper-grinders, stopper
makers. prescription,workers, castor
place workers. general flint workers and

hrs. Shearman's Coup.

Last Wednesday the board of coun-
ty commissioners passed an order
citing Mrs. w. n. Shearman to appear
before the board Wednesday at 8
o'clock and answer such questions as
may be put to her concerning personal
property holdings held by her in this
county. Mrs. Shea-man failec to
present herself to the ;bOard at the
appointed hour Wednesday and
upon inquiry it was learned that she
had Outwtted the board-made a
coup dgetaway and gone to California,
where she will reside in the future.
Tne board has reasons to.believe that
Mrs. Shearman possesses mortgages
and other valuable taxable papers
which she failed TO acknowledge to
the tax assessor. Accordingly the
commissioners planned a coup d'etat
20 get her before the beard for the
purpose of auding out her personal
holdings and taxing them. But Mrs.
Shearman sighted the board toa trick
or two herSelf'and performed a coup
d'ei., a coup de main and a coup de
grace. She saw an item in the Jour-
nal Wednesday evening stating that
she had been ordered 10 appear before
the board for pumping process
and she made hasty gath
erIng of her trunks and then
boarded the train for Newton,
where she remained until Thursday
evening when her husband, who hur.
riedly wound upl'her affairs in the
days interim, joined her and the two
were soon snugly ensconsed in Pull
man car bound for the land Of perpet.
ual sunshine and perennial flowers.
When the sheriff went to serve the
notice upon Mrs. Shearman Friday
morning hollow mock from an emp
ty room greeted his knock on the door
to her apartments.

ATTEND SCHOOL

The Wellington School Board
VIII Enforce ihe Law.
The board of education of this city
will hereafter strictly enforce the
compulsory education law, which
cOmpels all children between the ages
of s and IA years to attend public or
private schools.
This action On the part of the board
has recently been decided upon. H..
A. Loper, president Of the board of
education, informed the VOICE
Monday that beginning next Mon
day the parents or guardians of
all children between the ages men.
toned found idling away their time
on the streets hereafter would be
prosecuted. The law is a good one.
1t was passed by the legislature of
1874 but has never been enforced
The alarming increase in the number
of juvenile loafers in Wellington is
responsible for the boards determina-
tion to have the compulsory law car
carried out to the letter.
The law requires every parent, guar
dian or other person in the state hav-
ing control Of any child or children
between the ages of s and II years to
send such child or children tOa public
or private school for a period of at
least twelve weeks in each year, six
weeks Of which time shall be cOnsecu-
tive unless excused by the board of
education. The law applies to rural
school districts as well as to cities.
The law excuses no one except through
poverty orthe mental or physical con-
dition Of the Child. Parents who pre-
fer to teach their children at home
must use the same books, examina-
tiOnS, etc, as are used in the public
schools.
The penalty for noncompliance with
this law is fine of not less than S. nor
more than $40 for the first offense, nor
less than $40 nor more than $40 for the
second and every subsequent offense.
The prosecutions are to be conducted
by the state and all fires 50 collected
are to go into the county treasury.
Under this Jaw it is the duty of any
school director Jr president of tie
board of education to inquire into all
cases of neglect and ascertain from
the persons guilty of such negligence
the reasons, if any, therefor, and he is
commanded to forthwith proceed to
secure prosecutions. In case the
school director or president of the
board of education fails to prosecute
parents or guardians for violations
coming under the compulsory educa.
tion law within ten days after a writ
ten notice has been served on him by
any tax payer, he lays himself liable
to a fine of not less than $40 nor more
than $50.
President LOper is not going to wait
for tax payers to serve him with
written notices, however. He is 90.
ing to inquire into the case of every
boy he sees idiing himself on the
streets during school hours, and if
his parents cannot give satisfactory
reason why the boy is not in school
where he ought TO be, prosecutions
will be commenced Immediately. The
present school term closes Friday and
the new term commences next Mon.
day. The law will be rigidly enforced
from that time on, and parents whose
children are not attend ing school may
as we'll prepare to start their children
or be prosecuted. 1t is a good law
and its enforcement will tend toward
bringing up a better class Of young
men in the city.
