Crawford Fairbanks of Terre Eaute
Ind, the brewery magnate and the pro-
moter OF the strawboard trust, has q
vivid idea that the trusts are, so to speak,
on their last legs.
Did you read that expression of the
Attorney General of the United States
in which he said that the investors in
trusts would be the sufferers-not the
puh,ic?' said he. We'll. his head may
be level. The investors have a stomach
full of trusts. Trust stock is down from

CLAIMED TO BE A HERO.
''Lleut" 3. F. Waite, Well Known In
Worcester, Sentenced for Horse Stealing.

Lieut.. Benjamin Franklin Waite, or
Waite, who claims a home in this city,
was sentenced to six months in the
house of correction for horse stealing
at the session of the superior court at
Barnstable recently.
Waite was found wandering through
the streets of New Bedford last De-
cember with a valuable horse which
he claimed to be one that he had used
during the Cuban war. Later he went
to Fall River and demanded transpor-
tation in the name of the government to
New York. Local authorities had been
furnished with q description of horse
stolen from Obed j.. Baxter in Hannis
a few days before.
In a uniform partly that of member
of Roosevelt's rough riders, the self
commissioned lieutenant was arrested.
His identity has since been in doubt
He claims Worcester as his home, and
that he fought CALAMITY in the Cuban
war. Records do not bear out his
statements.
Waite was in Worcester for a few
weeks last fall, and was very enthusi-
astic over the formation of a biograph
and variety show he proposed putting
upon the road. The company left
Worcester, most Of the members being
amateurs of little ability. Towns in
Worcester county were played, and the
show reached Winchendon one stormy
night in December. The audience num-
bered about a dozen, and the company
was left stranded by the lecturer and
manager, Waite.
He was later arrested for horse steal
ing, and during his trial maintained
that he was a Cuban war hero. He had
no papers to substantiate his state
ments, and his name was unknown to
the officials in the war department.

SON AGAINST FATHER.
Louis A. Thompson of sutton Fined S25
for Assault on His Aged Parent.

Louis A. Thompson Of Sutton was
before Judge Utley in the central dis
trict court yesterday morning, charged
with assault and battery on his father,
who is 73 years old. Thej old man whose
face was a mass of cuts and scratches,
appeared against his son, telling Of the
assault. The prisoner claimed that his
father drew a revolver and attempted
to shoot him and would have succeed
ed but for the interference of his broth
er. The court did not look kindly on
the evidence offered by young Thomp-
son, and imposed a fine of $25, and or
dered him to give $50 bonds to keep the
peace.
John F. Kingsley, charged with vio-
lating his bail bond, was brought INTO
court by order of Chief brennan, who
went bail for him when he was taken
on probation several weeks ago. Judge
Utley ordered him committed to the
house of correction for four months.
christopher Ferris and Charles Burns
both charged with being stubborn chill
dren, were allowed to depart unmolest-
ed as their parents stated that the
youngsters would go to work in the
country for the summer where they
would not be led astray.
jeremiah Mahoney and Michael Lar
kin were each given four months in
the house of correction for drunken
ness. Nelson Bouchard was sent to the
state farm for the same offence, and
Michael Sederman was ordered to pay
a fine of IS for the same reason. EN-
DRY Martin was taken on probation.

land the other day. "six inches Of snow
fell and we had good sleighing.'
After the wedding, in 1S49, Mr.. Smith
took his bride to the Worcester House,
now the Lincoln House. From there
they went to High street to live, but in
1852 final move was made to Har-
ward street, where from that time on
they have lived.
Mr.. Smith has always been prom
inent figure in the growth of this city,
and in every new movement which
tended to develop the industries and
increase the wealth of Worcester, he
was found to be a sturdy advocate. For
20 years he has been clerk and treas
urer of the Worcester Mechanics As
ISOLATION, and no one knows more than
he of the inside workings of the So
ciety. AS a Mason he stands in the
front rank, having taken the 9Sd de-
gree in 1864.
Two sons of Mr.. and Mrs Smith are
now living William S. and Charles E.,
both residing in Worcester. William
S. married Miss Mary l.. Staples, and
they live at Auburn street. Charles
S. lives with John P. Marble, Harvard
street.

have been permitted to live so long to-
gether and so happily.
But the wide acquaintance of Mr.. and
Mrs. Smith in the city, whose growth
and development Mr. Smith has been
so closely identified with for over half
a century, was testified to perhaps in
10 more significant manner than in the
abundance Of the choicest flowers that
had been sent them. There were flow
ers everywhere in the house, placed in
every conceivable spot, flowers of many
varieties. but all in harmony with the
occasion. The rooms were filled with
the fragrance, and even the passerby
stopped to catch the aroma coming
from the house.
One of the keepsakes of former days
that Mr.. Smith took special delight in
showing, were two daguerreotypes, one
of Mrs. Smith, taken when she was
a young woman. The noticeable fea-
ture of this picture was the picturesque
way of combing the hair, the prevail
ing style in those days The other
was of Mr.. Smith himself, taken here
in Worcester, Oct. g. 1S43, and as Mr..
Smith expressed it, the first daguerreo-
type taken in this city where a charge
was made.
Fifty years ago Mr.. Smith AND Miss
Eliza Adeline Howe were married at
the brides home, on Thomas street, by
DIR. Edward Everett Hale. Besides DR..
Hale, only three Of the invited guests
who were present are now living. They

MOULDERS FIRM
And the Iron Foun.
ders Are Dumb
as Oysters.
D. H. WHITE TALKS.
Decision VIII Probably
Be Reached Be-
fore May l.

The cloud over the local iron indus
tries, caused by the demands of the
local iron moulders union, has not
lifted any.
The owners of the shops to whom the
demands We're made are preserving ST.
lence, when questioned in regard to
whether the moulders union demands
will or will not be acceded to.
The firms of Crompton- Knowles. Ar
cade Malleable Iron Works and the
Star foundry have been exempted
from the demands because they do not
enter the market with their production
to compete against other foundrymen
The executive committee of the
moulders' union met in Labor head
quarters last evening. At the meeting
was Daniel II. White, eX-vice president
of the International Iron Moulders
Union His executive ability in con-
Quoting matters of this kind is well
known.
He addressed the meeting last eve
ming, and looks forward to the local
founders meeting the union half way
but if there is no settlement then the
moulders are prepared f'WAa strike.
White stated that the first demand OF
the union for the recognition of the
union protects the employee inasmuch
as 1t makes him understand that all To-
cal founders are paying the same rate
of wages to all, and fair founder
then has no reason to fear that an I'M
fair founder is enabled to put his pro-
auctions on the market at a lower
price because of paying his men less
wages.
In regard to the second demand Mr..
White said that the system of piece
work was the degradation Of the union
But a few years ago the average pay
of the union men was 81 to IS per day
now it is about $3.50 in this city. TINS
condition is directly traced to the piece
system.
In explaining the day and a quarter
and day and a half, Mir. White said a
moulder gets a given rate of wages ano
is expected to do a fair days work
For a consideration he gets to the
foundry earlier than the rest, works
all day and his noon hour and into the
evening, doing in one day what shoulc
be done in two, and getting day anc
half's pay. This has a more detri'
mental effect upon the condition OF the
trade than the piece work system.
In regard to making the minimum
rate of wages $500 per day, Mr.. White
says the skill required and the kind o.
labor performed make it imperative
| that at least $500 should be paid fol
| jOurneymen work.
There is a probability that the foun
ders will have a run together before
May /, and agree on some concerted
plan of action. There is no organiza
ton in this city amongst the founder:
except the national association, which
would prove practically valueless in thu
present difficulty.

DISTRIBUTING GAME BIRDS.

The consignment of Mongolian
pheasants received Monday by Secre-
tary E. F. Swan of Worcester County
Game Protective Association was but
the first instalment of an allotment
made by State Fish and Game Com
missioner Bracket. OF the lot, three
hens and a cock were delivered to Geo.
B. Inches at Grafton, who will under
take to breed the birds. AT its annual
meeting the association voted to pur-
chase rs dozen quail for liberation
throughout the county. Part of the or
der has been given and about 30 dozen
of the birds are on their way to Wor-
cester from Kansas.
