SPIT UPON 4 WOMAN.
Unprovoked Insults Heaped Upon Mrs.
 Avery by Strikers


 Marlboro, Mass, Dec 2S.-The start ing of the shoe shops with non-union men put the strikers in an ugly mood to-day although no serious outbreak was attempted. The days trouble cul- minated this evening at a Union labor mass meeting with a contemptibIe and altogether unprovoked personal attack upon Mrs. Martha Moore Avery, so- cialist-labor advocate of Lynn. Mrs. Avery was jeered from the meeting and although escorted to the. hotel by two policemen, was hustled by the crowd of over 800 men, called every kind of a dis graceful name, buffeted and bruised by rought hands, spit upon and subjectd to many unmanly indignities by strik- ing shoeworkmen. At the meeting Will liam Inskip, secretary of the shoe work ers' union of England, and Harry J. Skeffington of Revere, Mass, were the principal figures Their remarks were of the usual character and each urged the men to stand fast.
 Mrs. Avery arrived just before the speaking began and althought he only woman in that part of the hall, she was obliged to stand in the aisle until the meeting wasov CT. Just as Mr. Skeff- ington had flushed his remarks Mrs. Avery started toward the stage for the purpose, she afterwards said, of speak ing privately to MT. Inskip. She said afterwards that she had no intention of addressing the meeting, being in the city on account of a lecture which she is to deliver tomorrow night. She had no sooner started forward than there was a wild roar from the entire au- dience and a number of men rushed forward to prevent her reaching the stage. A policeman, however, reached her first and escorted her from the hall A crowd followed and her escort did not seem to be able to ward off any of the attacks until she reached the hotel In an interview this evening Mrs Avery said that she was in favor of the strike and should consider it a crime if she, in advocating the socialis- tic labor principles, should favor call ing off the strike or oppose the side of the workingmen.

SENSATION IN NEWYOWN, MASS.
Ex-Waterworks Superintendent Ar.
 rested for Embezzlement.

Newton, Mass, Dec. 27.-The arrest tonight of Horatio Nelson Hyde, until a few days ago superintendent of the Newton waterworks, has produced a sensation seldom equalled in this vicin- ity. The allegations are embezzlement and the obtaining of money under false pretenses when occupying his official position. The warrant was issued, it is said, at the request of the water com missioners after cursory examination of the departments books and payrolls. The amount of the alleged embezzle- ment is unknown, but it is said the pay rolls have been padded, The resigna- tion of MT. Hyde as superintendent of the department was brought about at a request from Mayor Cobb.
