The Providence branch OF the Iron
Molders union met last evening, at NO.
q North Main street, for the purpose
OF taking final action in regard TO the
proposition TO present certain demands
to the foundrymen of Providence, Paw
ducket and vicinity, and there was
very large attendance. There was an
extended discussion of the three points
involved, which are the doing away
with piece work entirely, minimum
wage OF 81 day and the recognition
OF the union card.
1t was after IL o'clock when the meet
ing adjourned: the announcement was
made that the demands would be pre-
sented TO the foundrymen on Thurs

and there was a great deal OF enthusi-
asm when the result was announced.

plants, employing about 500 molders.
While the demands to be presented
Thursday may be adjusted with no
trouble. as is now the general expecta-
tion, the molders, IL necessary, say they
will take the extreme measure of go-
ing out. although this is step en-
tirely undeslred by them.

A rumor Is current to the effect that
the Byfield rubber plant is to be re-
moved from this town to Warren. The
News representative interviewed Mr..
+. l.. Smith, one of the principal own
ers. and from what could be learned
from him IL is quite certain that the
removal will take place. There are
many reasons why the company should
make the change. The company estab-
lished ITS plant here without asking
any assistance from the town. All
other companies that have come have
aske1 for exemption from taxes and II
had been granted. Probably this is one
OF the many reasons for the change of
location. Many inducements are held
out by the town of Warren and these
also have had an effect.

A MAN WITH TWO HEARTS.

A colored person called William
King, of New Bedford, has enjoyed the
uninterrupted possession of two hearts
for a century, as he is 100 years old,
and still so hale and literally hearty
as to be able to bend bars of iron
across his arm. According to the New
York Herald, which records this re-
markable freak of nature, DR.. Munroe
b. Long, of the Muhlenberg hospital
staff, physician of high repute, after
visiting King, said; king has one
heart on the right and one on the left
SIDE of the chest, whose separate beats
in unison could plainly be determined.
By a certain muscular contraction
King let one heart drop to the left lilac
region, where l clearly heard the beat
ing; then let the other heart drop TO
the right lilac region, where its beat
ing was also plainly heard, both beat
ing in the lower part of the abdomen
in unison. Next, King threw over the
interior of the abdomen a wall of bone
from the neck down, giving every evil
dence of having two sternums, or
breastbones, one of which is movable
at his will and seems to lie behind the
regular breastbone when in repose.

CREOLE BELLIES SOCIAL DEBUT
Must be Introduced to New Orlea ms
Society at the Opera.

''Sociey goes to the French opera on
Saturday night because its great
grandfathers Handed the custom down
to it," writes Harrydele Hallmark in
the Ladies Home Journal. 80 es-
tablished is this custom that no social
function is ever prepared for Satur-
day evening during the season. The
family that gives out an invitation for
that night is Immediately classed as
not versed in the usages of society and
not worthy to be known. This is so
deep-rooted in Creole life that such
an invitation would be jeered at as if
coming from a barbarian.
THE best singers save their voices
for this browning night, and the
house is like a private ballroom, where
the guests visit and laugh and chat
from the balconies of the boxes as
they do from the little iron balconies
that connect their houses. II one
does not go to the opera on Satur-
day night through lack of invitation
or money one is very careful not to be
seen elsewhere, giving out the sug-
gestion that sickness or trouble i'm
PEELED ones absence. The proud
Creoles of the French set, some of
them in grinding poverty, ignore all
that costs a picayune, in order to save
the amount to appear at the opera on
