THE EIGHT HOUR DAY.
President Gompers Issues a Letter
on the Subject.

Washington, Nov. president Com
pers, of the American Federation of La
Dor has sent a letter to state branches
of the order in reference to the bill to
create an S-hour day for all government
work whether done by the government
direct or by contract, in which he says:
During the last session of congress
our 8-hour bill (H. r. 1880, passed the
house of representatives. Owing to the
opposition of some senators it did not
passed the senate. 1t is unnecessary at
this time to enter into an argument in
favor of the S-hour day and it's estab-
1ishment by law for all government
work, whether performed direct, or by
contract; but, one statement made by
an interested opponent will suffice to
convince all that it will not destroy nor
injure or be an obstacle in the general
industries, nor the development of our
increasing ship building.
''Mr Cramp, of the Cramp ship yards,
before the senate committee on educa-
tion and labor, admitted that notwith-
standing that the workmen in the ship
yards of France worked IL and Il hours
per day and the workmen in the ship
yards of the United States 8 or 10, that
while French ship builders offered to
build Russian war ships in five years,
Mr.. Cramps company agreed to build
the vessels in 80 months. Notwithstand-
ing wages are higher in the United
States than in France, the French ship
builders wanted more money to build
the Russian war vessels than the
Cramps had contracted to believer them
for.
1.-THE executive council of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor at the meet
ing held here, October 24-25, instructed
the undersigned to request you, and I
do so request you now, to associate with
yourself, any committee of union men
for the purpose of waiting upon sena-
tors for the purpose of securing d prom
Use from them that they will favor our
S-hour bill at the coming session of con-
gress in December. If necessary we
should be pleased to have you appoint
committees to wait upon either, or both
of these senators to obtain like results.
I'VE have no partisan interest to
further or to punish; our movement, our
cause and our interests are committed
to and largely involved in the S-hour
law and the S-hOur movement; we pro-
pose to oppose those who are antagonis-
tic to the lawful and peaceful methods
and measures Of our organized fellow
workers. BY the cordial and prompt CO.
operation of all there can be no doubt
but we shall remove opposition to our
bill"

OMAHA SHOW A SUCCESS.
Closes With 100000 in the Treasu-
~ for stockholders.

Omaha, Neb., Nov. 1.-The Transmits
sissippi and International exposition
closed at midnight. The closing hours
of the exposition were the most bril-
liant in the history of the five months
exhibition. 1t is estimated that $4,000
people crowded the grounds. It was
Omaha day, and everybody was there.
Up to yesterday morning 2,552, 1913 peo-
pie had registered at the turnstiles, so
the grand total will considerably ex-
ceed $500, 900. The exposition was a
financial success, something over $400,
900 remaining to be divided among the
stockholders. A fraction less than two
million dollars have been received and
81, 500, 900 expended.
The concessions paid the exposition
$500, 900 and the exhibitors 5000, 600.
Eighty thousand dollars were received
from other sources. The highest num-
Der of people in any one day was the
opening day of the peace jubilee, when
President Mckinley spoke, 9S,786 per-
sons being present on that occasion.
The exposition owed 5000, 900 when the
gates were opened; $780, 600 were sub
scribed for the exposition and all but
100000 of that amount paid in. In ad-
dition, corporations donated $160,0U0. 1t
is estimated that the subscribers should
receive back so per cent of their sub
ScriptiOnS.

JOKE ON THE GIRLS.
Society Young Man Acts as Driver For
Halloween Party.

The Bachelor club girls had a good
time last night and incidentally several
young men around town are having
good time today laughing over the es-
capades of drunken hackman.'
For several weeks the young ladies
who comprise the feminine portion of
the Bachelor club have been planning
just a quiet little party for Halloween,
that is party composed only of girls
dressed up in their big brothers or best
beau's clothes. The young men have
tried hard and diligently to discove
where the party would be held The
young ladies refused to divulge the Sc
cret and the young men were just as
persistent that they would find out.
Last night four of the young ladies
gathered at the home of one of the num-
ber and dressed in the bifurcated cos
tunes their brothers and beaus wear at
full dress parties. They had left an or
der for a hack to call for them at 8
o'clock and drive them to the house
where the secret party was to be held.
With many giggles and snickers to say
nothing they awaited the coming of the
carriage
The door bell rung and the hackman
announced that he was ready. His
heavy cape overcoat and silk hat did
not fit him any too well and his Whisk-
ers were of a very Irish red but the
girls thought nothing of it and he es-
corted them to the hack and closed the
door behind them with a professional
bang and climbed to his seat.
Away they went but where? Why In
the world was the driver taking them
through all the dark alleys and side
streets? Was he drunk? When he
suddenly stopped in the middle of a
very dark alley and they heard some
thing pop they were sure that he was
uncorking fresh bottle. The young Ia
dies were scared. What if he should
dump them out somewhere and they all
rigged up in those horried clothes?
Driver, oh Driveri'' they cried but
no answer. They knew their hair was
turning white and still that driver kept
on his mad way. They never knew be
fore that there were so many alleys in
town. 1t seemed like an age before the
hack stopped at the house where the
party was being held and then such a
chatter as there was when the young
ladies told of their awful experience
with a drunken driver.
The fact of the matter was that a
well known society young man donned
the drivers coat and hat and borrowed
some red whiskers and did the part of
a drunken Jehu to such perfection that
the young ladies are still talking of
their terrible experience but the young
men who are on to the facts of the case
are having a good laugh at the expense
of the girls who had such a quiet little
stag party"
