TROUBLE AT THE
SHIRT FACTORY.
Colored Girls Find That
They Cannot Win There.
TOO LITTLE MONEY.
Over Two-thirds Leave on
Pay Day.
New Ones Come In, But Not Enough
To Fill Vacancies.
TOO LITTLE MONEY.

The Old Dominion Shirt Co., opened
branch of its factory at 727 North 3rd
St. Sewing machines were put in place
and run by 7-horse power gas engine.
At it's main factory in Manchester, Va.
it had much trouble with the white
girls on account, it is alleged, of the
low wages paid.
In this case however, it was adver-
tised that girls could make from So to
Sc per week, and it was bet short
time before 250 colored girls had regis
tered their names although only from
40 to 60 were needed.
The establishments has been running
about three weeks or more and the
girls became restless as to the amount
OF compensation. They were given
books in which were placed the result
Of their labor.
On Saturday last they got an idea
OF how much they would be paid which
was 31s cents for sewing twelve pair
sleeves one cent per dozen for hem
ming and six cents for making one
dozen shirts, the patterns being cut
out before hand.
As result of this on Monds for two
and three weeks work some of the
girls received from Scots. up to 81. 60,
few received as much as two dollars,
Tuesday morning, out of over forty
girls employed, not over ten or twelve
reported for work. New ones were
sent for and the number on Wednes-
day last increased to about twenty,
bat there are many vacant spaces at
the machines.
Those who seem to know by expert
ence scout the idea OF being able TO
make 80 co per week, believing that
only an expert could accomplish the
task.
The hours OF work were frem
o'clock to half past five, one half hour
being allowed for lunch.

Houston. Tex, July 25.--Some two
weeks ago q colored man, WAS lVnehed
in Grimes County. Last night church

burned the church.
John was found at his home, his an

csped, badly wounded, but was recap
tured today at noon and st once strung

Revenge for former lYnching, it is
thought, was the motive of the incen-
diaries.
