CUTTING MEMS HAIR.
And How 1t Materially Alters the Ap-


pearance.
Il never will understand" said the
bright girl, meditatively, according to
the Baltimore News, why in all these
years men haven't learned the proper
way to have their hair cut OF course,
one can't expect a barber to do any
thing less than give his patrons what
he considers their moneys worth, so
1t behooves the patrons themselves to
see that he does not turn them out
scalped almost beyond recognition. /
met man on the street the other day
and noticed inconsequently that his
hair was arranged becomingly and
that he looks very well. The next day
when the same man appeared / gave
gasp of astonishment. He was SO
changed my first thought was that he
must have been very i'll indeed, but his
beaming countenance put that out of
the question. Then | decided he was
wearing quite a low collar; careful
scrutiny. however. assured me that
that article was as usual. Then | was,
indeed, puzzled to account for the
metamorphosis. Presently the solu-
tion of the question flashed upon me
he had had his hair cut-mowed would
be better word On the back of his
head there was not a superhuous quar-
ter of an inch, and over his forehead,
where once all was waving tresses,
there was nothing now but a desert
waste. 1t was at least two weeks be-
fore that man looked like himself, and
as soon as he did he went right off and
had it cut all over again. Women
wouldn't make scerecrows of them
selves in that fashion. They would
rather have tiny portion cut off their
locks every other day. so keeping them
uniform length. even at fifteen cents
per cut than to startle their friends
into believing that a too enthusiastic
barber had used razor instead of
scissors and left little but the cuticle.
or lay themselves open to the sus-
picion that they had only recently left
the state prison. If I were a man l
would measure exactly what was to
be cut off and If my barber disobeyed
my instructions | would sue him for
malicious destruction of property;
that's what | would do

AS to the points we shall take
in our defense | am not at liberty
Just now to make any statement,
In the main, however. we shall
hold to the unconstitutionality of
the proceedings of the board of
equalization to usurp the power Of
the county assessor, and tamper
with the levy on special articles.
We shall also claim that, in the
time allowed him until January |
of next year it would be impossi-
BILE for Assessor Ames to reassess
the county, and that todo SO would
mean an additional expense which
would more than eat up the in
crense brought in by the addi-

Coal Miners Jobs Begging at ST.
Ton.

A sign hangs in the front of
Aliens employment agency, at the
corner of Seventeenth and Market
streets, which tells the whole story
of the present coal difficulty. 1t
reads:
Wanted Coal Miners, 80 cents
ton"
1t has been hanging there long
time, although the laborers who
read it understand, in spite of the
ambiguity, that they we're not to
be hired by the ton, Denver has
always been one of the greatest
distributing points for coal mine
labor.
Coal miners are always wanted,
bat never in the history of the
country have they been offered so
cents a ton for mining. The wage
is unprecedented, yet it is not the
highest that is offered. In other
places as much as 81 has been
given, and few have accepted even
this, AT present Denver is praoti-
cally stripped bare of every kind
of laborer who can work in mine
or handle coal
"If there are any coal miners or
any men who would like to be coal
miners in the city, | have not seen
them,' said Mr.. Allen yesterday.
In two days there has been only
single applicant for mine work,
and he was not available. Every
coal mine is clamoring for hands,
and is willing to do anything to
get them, even Offering to supply
transportation, which is unusual.
We could ship out of Denver fully
800 men to the coal mines alone,
and still not ffr the demand for
labor of that sort.
"The average wage of last year,
for example, was from 60 to so
cents a ton. Now the mines are
offering IS cents to 81 ton, with
all sorts of extra inducements.
There usually is a full supply of
laborers. The demand for ranch
hands has just come to an end,
and the men should be coming
back to the cities hunting for other
jobs. But they are hot. They
have all they want to do where
they. are. Railroad work is giving
jobs to many more this year than
itdid last. Denver Republican.

THE LIGHTS THAT FAILED.

The scientists have played con
fidence game on the people during
the past week. They have adver-
tised spectacular performance
which has failed to appear. Each
night, when the curtain was lifted
from the stars, the audience assem-
bled and waited to see the show
promised them, but each night
they have been disappointed. The
amount of sleep lost, the colds con-
tracted and the midnight iags ac-
cumulated are beyond calculation.
The only ones who have derived
any consolation from the continu-
Gus non-performances are the
young couples who were glad of
an excuse to sit up and make their
own sparks fly. But many hap
py home has been ruined The
husband who came home at 3 a,
m. from a down town game would
give his wife graphic description
of the brilliant display of shooting
Leonids in the sky and express re-
gret that he hadn't taken her with
him to see the wonderful spectacle.
In the morning paper she would
read that the meteors had failed
to materialize, and then domestic
trouble began.
After having kept the country
in suspense for nearly week,
watching for the heavenly visitors
who failed to keep their engage
ment, one of the most eminent
astronomers of the United States,
who is in charge of the naval OBJ
servatory at Washington, now an
nounces that the other ostrono-
mers we're mistaken in their calcu-
lations, and that the meteoric
shower will not come off until No
vember of next year. 'Phe people

represented S. Ives Wallace. At the

the Wallace men said would be a suit
for criminal libel if their demands were
not satisfied, Mr.. Stone signed the fol-
lowing communication which he wrote
himself:

M'KAY STITCHERS STILL OUT.

Webster, Nov, A. ]. Bates, million
aire shoe manufacturer, in an interview
with the Webster correspondent of The
Spy today, said there was no strike at
his factory. He had noticed the papers
were having a good deal of talk rela-
tive to a supposed strike at his fac
tory. He wished the reporter would
correct the idea of a strike as he said
there was not any.
The manufacturer admitted that the
newspapers had hurt him with articles
relative to the strike He said that it
had been spread broadcast over the
country and that now the trade jour
nais were picking the subject up and
making various comments on it. He
said 1t injured him in getting help to
MI the PLACES of those who had left
him, although he had steady ads. in
the Boston papers for help
Mr.. Bates stated his side of the case,
and an hour later the strikers gave
their side of the issue for the Sunday
spy. MIR Bates story was as follows:
A couple of weeks ago, after figuring
up his expense of Mckay sewing, he
ascertained that he was paying too
much for that work. In fact, he was
paying more than the average of his
competitors in other factories were Ae-
cordlngly he determined to reduce
the wages of the men employed at Nc
Kay sewing.
He was paying them IA cents a case,
fWenty-four pairs, for sewing the
shoes. He determined to reduce
their schedule to Y cents a case. They
accepted the reduction and were willing
"a oil that
he had decided to release two of the
Mckay sewers. They were William H.
Collins and William Reilly.
He said that caused them to leave
and not the reduction. He said he
would not have either Collins or Reilly
in the shop again, but was entirely will
ling to keep the others.
The men left their work and have not
since returned. He said he had received
already some twenty applications for
the Jobs vacated by the strikers. He
said that he had already put man on,
stranger, and that he would have an
other working on the job before the
first of next week
Speaking about the average wages
that the Mckay sewers had been earn
ing at the factory, Mr.. Bates stated
that they had been drawing a big week
ly stipend for their work. The manu-
1acturer mas singled out Collins for the
leader in the strike. Collins is the Oldest
operator in that department.
Collins record was shown the re-
porter for the past five weeks, COM
mencing Sept 20 and ending Oct 81
During that time he drew $S6.67 He
worked 246 hours. Mr.. Bates had fig
sured his earnings per hour at 35H
cents an hour very good pay indeed
providing he - that average. Mr.
Bates stated ti.;.t the others made
about the same.
Collins claims he has suffered enough
injustice in the factory. Since he has
been employed there he has been cut in
wages five different times. Once he
had experienced what was similar to a
cut, but executed in different manner
1t was the removal of rs revolutions on
his machine which figured up to a big
ger cut than the recent two cents a
