Then a Wisconsin Representative told

Mississlppi Valley Lumberman.

Mississippi Valley Lumbermsn.
The utter absurdity of some of the
rules of the unions that are causing q
suspension of building operations in
the city Of Chicago, is illustrated by a
recent occurrence in that city. A
journeyman plumber, employed by
one OF the large plumbing concerns,
was laid off for a few days when work
was light, and as he had recently
built house for himself, and some
plumbing was needed, he put in the
time working for himself. Now il
happens that the amount OF work the
union prescribed as days labor ID
only about one-third of what compe-
tent workman is able to do. Work
ing for himself, the plumber did all
he could. A walking delegate hap
pened to come along, and finding out
that the rules OF the union had been
fractured, the plumber was obliged to
pay the regular fine before he could
return to work. That about touches
the limit. If every member of the
plumbers union should be given q
similar dose of union medicine some
of the demands made upon contractors
would be modified.

We have been caught by the slot
machine disease during the last few
years to so great an extent that most
persons think these devices are only OF
the most modern invention. Such,
however, is not the case, for twenty
two centuries ago the great mathema'
tician and mechanician of Greece,
Hero, had perfected a slot machine
very much like those of our day which
sprinkle cologne on your handkerchief
after penny has been put into the

pies OF Alexandria, and a worshiper
who dropped a coin into the slot
would find q little stream of water
pouring out to wash his hands.

Both conventions were enthusiastic

yentions.

One More Lump Of Sugar.

Mr.. Havemeyer's claim that the
sugar trust is losing money has
brought out the following from the
New York Press: "Sugar is worth in
the grocery stores about 6 cents q
pound, and everybody in the world
eats it. If Mr.. Havemeyer could per.
suade all of the inhabitants OF the
United States to use one lump more
in every cup of tea and coffee that is
drunk he might manage to declare
the same old dividend. Estimating
that 50,0O0,OOO drink tea and coffee,
the increase would be 100000

THE SOLDIERS PAROLE.
1t Is Purely a Voluntary Compact Between
Captor and Captive.

Parole, it must be understood, is a
purely voluntary compact. The cap
tor is not obliged to offer to parole his
prisoner, the prisoner is not obliged,
and cannot be compelled to give his
parole. If he does he will probably
be released on pledging his word not
to serve during the existing war. If
he refuses he will remain captive un-
til the war is over or until he can
make his escape. The usual parole
pledge extends only to active service
against the enemy. A prisoner re-
leased on parole is not breaking his
contract if he drills recruits, quells
civil commotions or fights other ene-
mics.
A soldier taken prisoner has no
authority to pledge himself never to
serve against particular enemy. He
cannot throw off thus lightly the duty
he owes to his sovereign or country.
and if he makes any pledge it must be
confined to a limited time. More
over, if a prisoner should make a
pledge not approved by his own gov
ernment he is bound to return and
surrender himself to the enemy.
In the British army soldier can
only give his parole through COM
missioned officer or an officer OF infer.
ior rank cannot give parole either for
himself or for his men without per-
mission from his commanding officer.
The United States authorities, by the
way, give greater liberty of parole than
is the case with the British army.
A captured prisoner who has violat.
ed his parole may be punished with
death.

ERNEST Howell, who was for several
years Superintendent of st. PauPs
Sunday school, at Oakland, CAL, has
entered the dramatic profession as
manager of a stock company. He
says: "I still believe in religion, and
will always do so, but I see nothing in
compatible between Christianity and
acting. A man can be morally good
or bad, no matter what profession he
enters, and clean plays certainly do a
great deal of good. Had I the time
would still be engaged in Sunday
school work."

FAILURE AS A NEWSPAPER.
Editor Of Topeka Capital Sums Up on Shell.
don's Experiment.

don's Experiment.
"The estimate placed upon Mr..
Sheldon's experiment will generally be
that it was a failure as q newspaper
and not above the average as a religi-
Gus paper"
Thus J. X. Hudson, editor of the
Topeka Capital, sums up his opinion
of the Rev. Charles NJ. Sheldon's at
tempt to run newspaper as Christ
would have done. Here are some fur
ther extracts from Mr.. Hudson's edi-
torial:
"The Topeka Daily Capital again
assumes its sphere and work as Re-
publican daily newspaper. The ex-
pertinent tried by Rev. Chas. M. Shell
don from March 13 to March Is in
making Christian daily is matter
of history. 1t has deeply interested
millions OF people. With the jealous
ly religious people, at least with many
of them, there is a sincere belief that
the experiment will be benefit in
arousing interest in higher standards
of journalism, while large majority
Of people will refuse to see anything
in it but the great zeal OF an earnest
evangelist in strange field of labor"
"No matter how widely one may
differ from him (the Rev. Mr.. Sheldon)
regarding the experiment he has tried
or the work he has done, all who come
to know him recognize his intense
earnestness, his unsullied integrity,
his modesty and lack of all pretense.
What he does is from high, consci-
entious sense Of duty to which he ad-
dresses himself, regardless of praise,
of criticism. There is neither vanity
nor self-exaltation about the map."
Dell Keiser, President and manager
of the Capital Publishing Company,
lately made the following statement
for The World concerning the profits
of the Sheldon edition of the Capital
"Some of the figures named in this
connection by the newspapers are alb
surd. The amount of profits has been
greatly exaggerated, but they cannot
be definitely ascertained until settle
ments have been made with news
companies and numerous other agen-
cies, which will take some time. No
definite amount has been agreed upon
between the publishers aud Mr.. Shell
don. There is no misunderstanding
or disagreement between them"
The Capital is running in the secu-
lar ways as before, under the editorial
direction OF Gen. j. X. Hudson. The
paper prints daily page of newspaper
comments regarding the edition,
nearly all of them being hostile to the
Sheldon idea.
