ment. The person must apply to the office
stating age, residence, kind of work wanted
and reference Employers of all kinds OF
labor are requested file applications fol help
by letter or other wise. The Bureau will at
once put the two in communication with
each other, or where positive Instructions
are given will send the applicant to the EN-
ployer at once with letter.
While this is being done a list Of labor or.
CARNATIONS will be arranged and the officers
of such requested to keep the Bureau posted
as to mechanics out Of employment and how
they can be easily reached, so that the wants
of the county employers can be quickly sup
Piled
OF course, as there is no appropriation for
the work at present, the effort will be limited,
but it is hoped to demonstrate by the next
session of the Legislature that this is work
both of practlblity and usefulness to the
people of the State.
The State of Illinois has established three
employment bureaus in the city of Chicago.
These were opened August 2nd, 1899, and
up to date of July 29lh, 1900, had accom-
| plishcd the following good wook--
Applications for employment .....44,2G1
Number of positions secured. ......... .3,7l2
Application for help ...... ..... ..3o 539
| Applications for help untitled. ........ ,S27
1t will be seen by the above figures what
an immense amount of good has been accom-,
plshed by the Illinois Bureau in securing
work for the unemployed, and ifonly small
proportion of such work can be accomplished
by the Maryland Bureau, the Legislature
will have sufficient data to base any lcgisla-
ton upon that may be deemed necessary.
There will be absolutely no discrimination
between applicants, the first come being the
first served That is, the list will be strictly
adhered to and persons on that list assisted
to employment according to rotation. 1t is
proposed to enroll men and women alike,
without reference to race, creed or color,and
endcavor to help all kinds of labor, from
house help to factory or shop.
The employers Of the State can make the
effort q success by rendering their aid and
sending to the Bureau for help Of all kinds,
while il remains to be seen whether those
out employment will avail ofthc opportunity
offered,

Uoa. Thos. A. Smith, Chief Of the Bureau
of Industrial Statistics, has decided to start
an Employment Bureau under the auspices
of his department, The man object OF the
Bureau is to bring the employer employee
together without cost to either party, 1t IS
believed that farmers ana employers in the
various counties of the State, as well as in
the city, often require help, mechanics nd
mbOrng men and women, but owing to the
trouble in securing the same are compelled
to wait until they make a yisi! To the city or
depend upon the various employment bureau
run tOI a profit. On the other hand there
are many work people who do not possess
the necessary amount of money to pay Tor
enrolment in these bureaus or whose wages
are too meagrc too even spare thc dollar oi
two demanded by these agencies even after
the employment is secured.
Il is thought that the Bureau OF Industrial
Statistics may accomplish this work with but
tile cost, If the effort to be made Is seconded
by the press Of the State and various labor
organic .tions and the work people generally.
For the present the following programme
has been mapped out; A book Will be opened

Paris, France, September 10, 1900.
For those who are interested IN art,
the Paris Exposition offers a formlda-
Bile collection Of specimens. There are
assembled here, as in gigantic ency-
clopedia, all the materials serving in
the history Of art in the past, marking
its development by stages, and showing
in the present, or means of comparl-
son between the displays of all races,
the dominant thoughts, the modes Of
expression, and the progress achieved.
1t is true that these materials are scat
tered throughout the exposition. In
the Grand Palace Of Fine Arts, one can
with single & ance embrace the stimuli
taneous effort of nations in what was
formerly called the noble arts; one can
recognize what each people has achieved
in painting and sculpture in the last
ten years, but the conclusions to be
drawn from this examination are in

The troops withdrawn from China

makes them needed. In fact, the need
for soldiers in the Philippines is be

the administration to decide to hurry
w the withdrawal of the American
troops from China. There will be no
delay, as Gen. Chafee was ordered
nearly a month ago to hold himself IN
readiness to withdraw at any time.
