BERLIN. June 1.-Nearly year ago Emperor
William. In a speech at Oeyinhausen. an
nounced his intention to promote law for the
protection OF workingmen against intmida-
ton by their fellows when a strike was in
progress. The measure. which had been
dubbed In anticipation the Hard Labor bill"
was introduced in the Reichstag to-day under
the title OF "A Bill for the Protection OF In
dustria Labor"
1t is unquestionable that the measure will
raise a lively fight between the opposing in
terests. and It is already taken for granted
that the Reiohstag will reject it by over
whelming majority. Herr Richter the Radical
leader. declares that the Socialists owe graft
tude to the Government for providing them
with such excellent material for agitation.
One OF the prominent features of the bill is
paragraph s. which provides that II a strike or
lockout endangers the safety Of the empire or
one of the federal States or human life or II
property is endangered. the ringleaders may
be punished with hard labor for five years and
other participants with hard labor for three
years.
The Radicals are indignant over this para
graph. They declare that such fearful
weapon must not be placed in the hands OF
public prosecutors. inasmuch as the vague
ness OF paragraph 3 and some of the other
paragraphs leaves the Interpretation to them.

CURIOUS CUCKOOS.

The cuckoo is generally known only
Is bird with very monotonous note:
q continuous cry of cuckoo, cuckoo"
over and over again. SAmong naturalists,
however, the cuckoo is known as bird
that never builds nest for itself, but
takes advantage of one already built by
some more industrious bird.
There is a good deal of the cuckoo
about these advertisers who, instead of
making a success of their own, seek to
profit by the success which some one
else has made with much effort and
labor. II is so with those limitations of
DIR. Pierce's methods, by which free
medical advice is offered, although those
who make the offer are without qualified
medical ability or experience. And the
cry raised In some cases of woman,
woman, woman write to woman " makes
the resemblance to the cuckoo even
stronger.
There is as far as known no qualified
woman physician connected with any
proprietary medicine establishment, and
none therefore competent to give medi-
cal advice. II is certain that there is 10
one, man or woman, who can offer free
