WOMEN IN eRIckyARDs.
Many Are Employed In Chic sgo At Rough
Labor.

Many Are Employed In Chic ago ss 1ougn
Labor.
The statement made the other day ~
the Chicago trade and labor assembly
that women and young children worked
in Chicago's brickyards appears to have
q foundation in fact.
A visit was made to various brick-
yard and, although only one woman
was found at work, this W as simply be-
cause the yards quit work at ten o'clock
in the morning No one connected
with the in dustry denies that women
work in the yards, but say their work
Is mostly what is technically called
backing" brick.
This consists Of turning the bricks
over and piling them up in rows. 1t
does not sound like very hard work, but
when it comes to either stacking or
turning over thirty thousand bricks .
day it will be seen that the task would
tax the back of many q man.
Most of the rough labor is done by
Poles, and it is said that this is mostly
the race which allows its women to
work in the yards. Contrary to sxpec-
tation, it is neither widows nor single
women who do the work. but the wives
and mothers OF families, who labor in
the yards right beside their husbands.
Not much can be learned from the
employees themselves, but the police
who have travelled around the yards
tell bad tales. They say that it is no
uncommon sight to see little girls
turning bricks who are so tired that
they crawl on all tours from one pile to
another Their backs are bowed and
bent and they cry when they try to
stand up straight.
The women, for their work, are paid
six dollars a week. The children get
three dollars-or, rather, their parents
get it. Owing to the hours in the yards
the school inspectors can do nothing
because most of the children attend
afternoon school.
Work at the brick yards begins at
half-past three or four o'clock in the
morning and is over when the sun gets
hot-about ten o'clock. Then the little
children can go to play or go to school
and the mothers can 60 to their house
work. They have earned dollar and
a half.
Women and children have only been
employed in the yards recently. There
was general strike among the brick.
makers few weeks ago on account Of
the manufacturers not paying the
union scale Of wages, and women and
children have been employed to take
the places of the strikers.

SHE WAS DISCOVERED.
When Mrs. B--'s Cat Was L~s Out Of tn
Bag It Did Some Scratching.

Wnen MRS. B--'D Cat WAS 1ssss Gus OF the
Bag 1t Did Some Scratching.
Mrs. B. was summoned to the door
one morning by an old-clothes man,
says the Detroit Free Press, but she
resolutely told him that she had moth.
ing for him until he took out an old
chamois-skin purse, and, on opening it,
said:
Look, lady, 1 git you gold for any
old things what you got to SELL"
This was too much temptation and
soon she had the contents of her ward
robe spread out for his inspection. Her
heart misgave her, though, for her hus-
bana had positively forbidden her ever
to sell any of her old clothes. She
only hoped he would never find out,
and with the money she could buy such
fine new ones.
There was one gown that she did
hesitate to part with. 1t was lowered
teagown, with q big bow at the side
and long sash ends of gorgeous ribbon,
and Mr.. B. particularly liked that
dress, because she had served afternoon
tea in it for him often during their en-
gagement. However. the man offered
q good price for it and it went with the
rest.
When Mr.. b came home in the
evening his wife had guilty look as if
something lay on her conscience. But
she ascribed it to a headache and the
old-clothes deal remained . profound
secret.
A week or two later Mrs. B. asked
her husband to do the marketing. She
usually attended to this herself, but
was going to have company and could
not spare the time.
Mr.. B-accordingly took the market
basket on his arm and went from stall
to stall purchasing supplies, when sud-
denly he saw his wife standing near
him, haggling over some vegetables.
'Great Scott" he said, under his
breath. "And in that teagown, tool l
wonder what ncxt?"
He stepped up to her and gave her q
vigorous rap ON the back.
The next moment he saw moons and
stars. Whacl, whack, whack! came the
blows from q castiron fist and shrill
voice screamed in his ear:
"You impudent wretch, I'll teach you
to know lady when you see one! Take
that and that and that
He escaped with his life and hurried
home for repairs. The cat was out Of
the bag and it had scratched him se-
verely, but never, never again will Mrs.
b sell any of her ID clothes
