VIOLA ALIENS DEPARTURE.

The theatres of Boston are III q sense
a barometer of the financial condition
of things in New England, and, there
fore, their receipts are, in d sense, a
qualification to all people.
Viola Allen has played at the Boston
Museum since March 9Th, to the largest
receipts recorded in the Hub for many
years, and next Monday evening, May
Sth, begins her tenth week with every
indication of maintaining her business
to the quite uniform limit upheld dur
ing her entire run-capaclty. Her en-
gagement at the museum will undoubt-
eddy go on record as the most eXcep-
tional in receipts and popular interest
that has occurred in years.
Miss Aliens great success is 10 be at
tributed to her wonderful personal and
professional popularity, to the remark
able strength of her play, and the fact
that both have appealed with equal
force to theatregoers and TO the reilg
iOUs element.
The limit Of Miss Aliens run is fixed
for Saturday evening, May Goth A
special matinee will occur Thursday
afternoon, May II. Although an effort
is being made by the management to
extend her time, it is not lSely that
her run will be prolonged.

BEER BOYCOTTED.
Product of the Wor-
cester Brewing Go.
Under the Ban.
NON-UNION LAR0R.
Building Trades Council
Says 1t is Employed
There.

At the meeting of the Central Labor
union executive committee, last night
in labor headquarters, the product OF
the Worcester Brewing company
plant, now in the hands of the Wcrces'
ter Brewing corporation, was placed I'M
der the ban.
The trouble at the present time is
renewal Of the fight against the Wor-
cester Brewing company, which
started when the plant was being built
At that time the Central Labor unior
boycotted the company, alleging un-
fairness in hiring non-union men ant
permitting contract work on interior
finishings to be done by firIss which dc
not recognize the union.
Conferences between Jefferson D
Pierce and Manager A. G, Reimold re
suited in the announcement that a sat
isfactory adjustment had been made
and the boycott was removed. Charges
of receiving money from Manager Rel
mold were preferred against Mr.. Pierc'
by the Central Labor union, but he wa
| exonerated after an investigation. Tn
| Massachusetts Federation Of Labor, o
which Mr.. Pierce is president, charged
him with dropping the fight agains
the brewery because of monetary con
sideration.
The Worcester Brewing corporation
is making changes in the interior fit
tings of the plant, and the action of tn
Central Labor union last night was sal
to have been at the instigatton 0
the Building Trades council, that bod,
claiming that non-union help is EN-
ployed there. The Central Labor uniol
voted to withdraw its endorsement o
the product of the corporation unit
such time as the rules of the Trade
council are conformed with.
The bill before the legislature for tn
! enactment of a law granting an eigh
| hour working day to city employees wa
| discussed. jefferson D. Pierce and re
| representatives. of the Massachusetts
| Federation of Labor have appeared a

Of the bill, and a referendum vote vii

tors of the bill will urge the representa-
| tives and senators from this district t
vote for the passage of the bill.

ton of a bill to be introduced by tn

which, if passed, will place building

The recent session of the New York
legislature has dealt a severe blow to
the partnership that has long existed
between the bosses and the corpora
tons. AS the New York Evening Post
remarks, the corporations will stop
their contributions if the bosses cannot
guarantee them immunity from unde-
sirable legislation. The corporations
contribute with the utmost impartiality
TO either side, according as the one or
the other is in power. At times the
enforced contributions have been tam
tamount to blackmail but whichever
way the influence of corporations in
legislation is viewed, it has become one
Of the conspicuous evils of New York
politics.

In the midst of the abuse heaped
upon him, because of his Philippine
policy, President Mckinley can find
consolation in unwonted quarters. The
New York Times, a democratic expan-
sion paper, copies the following TRADE
which was printed in the Aurora, the
organ of the adventurer Duane, upon
the retirement of Washington from the
presidency:
IF ever a nation was debauched by
a man, the American nation has been
deceived by Washington. Let his con-
duct, then, be an example to future
ages. Let it serve to be a warning that
no man may be an idol. Let the history
Of the federal government instruct
mankind that the mask Of patriotism
may be worn to conceal the foulest de-
signs against the liberty Of the people

Editor LEADER:-Will you kind
ly give space in your columns for a
few words of appreciation to those
who so generously administered to
us in time of need. When our
house, precious keepsakes, furni-
ture, library and winters supplies
were nearly all consumed, and we
realized our helpless condition-sit-
uated where we could not get money
or supplies for work-we earnestly
cried to the Creator and Upholder
OF all things for help. After a night
OF suffering our condition was made
known, and kind ones came to our
assistance. We recognize the Holy
Spirit as the foundation of every
good in thought Or act. While
this Is true, and we thank Him for
blessings received, yet recognize
persons who have been inspired to
act the part of the Good Samaritan
to us. While we have lost many
mementoes of old f.iends, we find
they are not forgotten, and now we
have evidence of many new and
dear ones. Our hearts will ever go
out in gratitude 10 the giver OF each
article, great or small. We sincere
ly thank all. We cannot recon-
pence you, can only say look to
Him who said, Chou shalt be
