SMALL FIRE
At Halstead & Harmount's Lumber
Yard.

Fire broke out yesterday afternoon at
2:15 o'clock in the lumber yard of Hal
stead G. Harmount. The origin Of the
fire is unknown, but is supposed to
have started from lighted cigarettes
thrown on the lumber piles by small
boys who battle in the vicinity. The
Waterman of the yard said that he has
had a great deal of trouble with small
boys, who will persist in bathing off
the end of the dock between the Hal
stead & Harmount yard and the pier
of the Starin line. The fire caught a
pile of planks and did no damage be-
yond scorching few at the bottom of
the pile It was soon put out.

THE WILLFUL CRIMINAL.

Tramp Life and Then Tried to
Reform Him.

The willful criminal may have a soft
spot in his heart for somebody, and
gladly deny himself for that Others
good. Josiah Flynt, in his "Tramping
with Tramps," tells the. sickening
story of the boys who r lured from
home and taught, by vagabonds. the
first steps of that lawlessness which
leads to crime and punishment. But
in one case the instructor in this evil
course became very much attached to
his little charge, and when Mr.. F1ynt
saw the two they were at a railway
station, the man sending the boy to
his mother for a visit. For the lad
was homesick, and had begged to re-
turn for a short time, promising to
run away again and find his leader.
The man had been asking the boy
to repeat what he had learned for the
purpose of getting an illegal living,
and the items were seven in number.
you sure that's all, kid?" insisted
the tramp.
"Well, amt that enough? You
don't know much more yourself. No.
you don't, and you're three times as
old as I am"
Here the boy began to pout.
Now, kid, d'you know what I want
yer to do?"
"Yesi Amt yer been telling me

minutes you'll be gone. Now I want
you to promise that you'll forget
everything I taught you. Listenin' ?''
The boy was gazing down the
track.
"Nown you promises?
It'll be hard work."
Cant help it. You got to do it. You
don't wanter be like me. You wanter
be somethin' dead fne-'spectable."
"Ain't you somethin' dead fine?"

was a surprise in his look too great
t.. be concealed. The train was ready,
and the man turned 70 the boy.
Their good-by was as tender as any
] ever saw. A kiss, a gentle stroke
on the shoulder, and the man helped
the boy to climb into the box car.
Would he remember, and would he
try? Alas, the master had taught his
lessons too thoroughly! The boy
made a brave fight for a time, but
his weakened will gave way, and he
drifted back into the old life.

IN G
Fictitious capitalization II Trusts
Makes Reduction of Wages
NeceKsaFy.

The prosperity enjoyed by wage
workers is outlined in a report pub
lished in hat stanch republican organ,
the Chicago Tribune. from which the
following extract is quoted: "The re-
port in circulation several days ago to
the effect that wages at the mills of the
American Steel and Wire company had
b~eenredueed to betrue in spite
of the emphatic denials of the company
officials at the time. 1t is understood
that the company intends to gradually
reduce wages in the different depart
ments, taking one department at .
time, and thus get wages back to the
level where they were at the time the
trust was first formed. The horizon
tai reduction of the pay of all the men,
if made at one time, it was feared,
would bring on, a general strike. /"
Therefore the trust has decided to cut
off. the dogs tail by inches and trim it
down to the panic scale gradually.
The report does not state why 10
should be necessary to reduce wages.
That is left to inference, the Tribune
merely stating the fact that wages
have already been reduced and that the
reduction will gradually be come a gen.
eral one The trust is capitalized for
$75. ZOO, 900. More than one-half of that
amount is fictitious, but in order to
pay dividends on ali of it the wages of
the employees must De reduced. That is
the way trust prosperity strikes the
working masses. The amount filched
from the scant earnings of the en-
ployes is used to pay divid ends. That is
prosperity with a vengeance. If trade
conditions are such that the stockhold-
ers of this trust are compelled to live
off their employees then it is time that
radical reforms ne introduced and a
system changed that makes the
wealthy weather. and the poor poorer.
