candidate and probable holder of the
national office. There was a strong SEN
timent among local trade unionists in
favor of Mr.. Frey, and moulders eX-
pressed the wish that Worcester might
be honored by his selection.
Mr. Frey was born in Mankato,
Mimi, and is but 2S years old. He at
tended the public schools in that city,
and later in Montreal He came to
this city about 10 years ago, and be-
came an employee at Kabley's foundry
as a moulder's apprentice. Since his
entrance into Worcester, Mr.. Frey has
been a staunch trade unionist, although
not of a rabid type.
For three years ending in 1897, Mr..
Frey was president of the local union.
His retirement from office in the union
was not popular among his fellow mem
bers, and he was elected vice president,
which office he now holds. Mr.. Frey
has been a member of the New Eng
land conference board, and served one
term as its treasurer. He was dele
gate to the national convention of
moulders at Indianapolis, in July, and
served on the constitution committee.
At the convention of the state branch
of the American Federation of Labor
II
Frey achieved unprecedented honor in
labor circles.
He attended the session as a dele
gate of the local moulders' union, and
it was his first appearance in the Mas
sachusetts federation. Before the close
of the first days business, however, he
became in position where he was gem
orally referred to as that Frey from
Worcester" In the second days pro-
Mr. ~
ton delegates from heated debate into
the placid depths of calm reasoning,
by his speech upon the rights of every
man to independent political views and
free religious thought when attempts
had been made to introduce resolutions
suggestive of socialism.
When nominations for officers were
made, there was not more surprised
man in the convention hall than Mr..
Frey, when his name was placed in
nomination for the second vice presi-
dency of the state branch. Pitted
against him was Edward F. Ward of
Boston, who had served successfully
one term OF the SO votes cast, Mr..
Frey received a. and the election was
made unanimous by Mr.. Wards mo-
ton.
In the makeup of Mr.. Frey is con-
servatism rarely found in labor lead
ers. During the moulders' strike in
this. city, Mr.. Frey served as chairman
of the executive board. When enthu-
siasm among the men ran highest, Mr..
Frey was always calmest. His conduct
of the strike was of such character as
to render the entire period of the con-
test for better wages clear from trouble
of any sort
The growth of the local union has
been phenomenal since the closing of
the strike Men who never recognized
the usefulness of the union flocked to
enter it, and not more than score of
moulders remain outside the fold. In
recognition of this membership increase,
Worcester as a foundry centre, and Mr..
Frey's unquestionable ability for the
position, Worcester trade unionists dali
Iy expect official notification of the
elevation of Mr.. Frey.
James F. O'Neill of Providence, a
member of the executive board, is the
only New England man honored by a
national office.

girl was murdered in Moravia, and
Hebrew was arrested for the crime. He
may have been guilty, but it is not with
his arrest that my story lies. After he
suffered the sentence of his crime, the
papers of that country published stories
to the effect that the Jewish people, in
the ritual of their church, used Chris
tian blood for the ceremony. While 1t
is absurd, in many ways it shows the
terrible condition of our people, and
only hastens us to the accomplishment
of our proposed plans for the COLOMBIA
tion of the Holy Land. We have good
friends in the emperor of Germany and
the sultan Of Turkey both of whom are
necessary for the successful accom-
plishment Of our mission. l feel that We
can count on them to help us through.

Immediately saw the spirit of their
leader, and our banner was given a
grand salute.

that they came to America, and were

Every Jew may look to England and
America as a Zion, but we cannot all

BEDS FOR HEBREWS.
Movement to Have Them in Worceste
Hospital.

Rev. Morris Kaplin, cantor Of the
Sons of Abraham synagogue, on Ply
mouth street, has inaugursted a move
ment among the Hebrew people Of
Worcester to create fund for the es-
Enlistment Of beds in some of the hos
pitfalls in the city.
He has brought the matter to the at
tention of the various Hebrew societies
in Worcester, and yesterday the matter
was talked over. In conversation with
The Spy man last night, Mr.. Kaplin
said: 81 feel that the Hebrews of this
city get enough benefits from the hos
pitfalls to keep a bed for the benefit Of
it's people. For some time past our peo-
pie have been admitted to the city hos
pital and other places free Of charge If
they did not have the money, and
think that we should do this as our
duty"
The matter will be put in motion dur
ing the coming week and it is expected
at the society meetings. Sunday, com
mittees will be appointed and the funds
for the purpose raised.

Ottmar MereenthaIer Made Good
Guess at Its Rate of Speed.
Lee Ruble, the pressman of The
scimitar, tells this story about the
late Ottmar Mergenthaler. One day a
stranger came into the pressroom and
asked how many papers the press was
running off, says the Memphis Scim-
itar.
"About twenty thousand an hour"
answered Ruble inrpatientty, anxious to
get rid of the intruder, and not par
ticular about the truth of his state
ment.
The stranger stood watching the
press pump up and down for a minute
or so. and then said "She is running
about It's a minute.
Pressmen are enthusiastically sem
sitive about guarding the secret Of the
number Of papers run off, and Ruble
was on the point of bouncing" the
visitor when he quietly walked out of
the pressroom and left the pressman
wondering who he was.
Later, when Ruble came into the bus

TOWN TALES.

Here's a tale of the town that is a
could find in weeks travel, came to a
gentleman who was engaged in bust
ness, not far from the city hall, a week
or two ago, and asked for work. He
was vouehed for by a gentleman of
such standing that no other eredential
was necessary, and he was engaged. No
question as to his ancestry was asked.
He had clear eye and looked at you
straight. He was courteous and did his
work satisfactorily He was obliging,
obedien. and careful. Now this boy,
it turned out, has no parents. They
left him few years ago to work out
his own destiny. Something in his ma
ture made him a gentleman. The bad
influence that surround the waif had
failed to touch this boy, who will make
his mark somewhere some day.
One day keen, sharp looking man,
called on the employer. and said he had
come from Providence to take him
back, as he was runaway from the
state institution of Rhode Island. The
gentleman who had befriended him ap-
pealed to the chief of police, and the
good hearted official would not let the
Rhode Island officer take him. The up
shot of the matter was that the proper
papers were issued, and the boy was ta-
ken away weeping. Now here comes
the point A bright boy, of refined
tastes and good manners, is hurried
back to all the scum he had run away
from.

MED by another man on his trips about

selling sacred pictures, and represented
to each person who bought one, that
they were for the benefit of church

communicated with the Brighton police
and confirmed their suspicious.
