FATALITIES IN FACTORIES.
More Persons Killed and Injured Inst
Year Than in the Spanish
American War

Commissioner John McMackin, of the
state bureau of labor statistics, in his
annual report of the legislature com
pares the number of deaths and in iu-
riesamong the millionpersons employed
in the factories and shops of this state
to the number of killed and wounded in
the Spanish-American war. He points
out that 700 toilers met their death
through accidents last year ard that of
the injuries sustained by 10000 work
men, 5000 of these injuries entailed
iisablement for n period in excess of
three months. He contrasts this rec
ord with the casualties of the recent
war, stating that only $50 were killed
and 1877 wounded in battle. The COM
employers liability law.
Between 1886 and 1899 the number of
employees in 1858 establishments in
creased 56,321. In these establishments
the wages during that period increased
from Sal, 1S4,8 45 in 1896 to $162 645 $40
asst year. The only branches of indus
try which do not exhibit improved
lS97-98 are the textile and building in
lustries. The decline in the textile in
iustry is confined to the wooden and
cotton factories, and does not occur in
the manufacture of silk, hosiery and
knit goods, or in any. of the other tex
tiles. The reported decline in the build
ing industry is more apparent than real,
as it is simply the result of abnormally
large figures for 1S97-98, reported by
single establishment.
Comparing 1899 with 1896, the indus
tries enjoying the largest growth are
clothing. public utilities g. e., gas, cleo
tric lighting and street railways, met
ais, machinery, etc, and leather, all of
which exhibited larger increase than
the general average.
During the first three months of 1897
virtually one-fourth of all members of
labor unions were unemployed. There
after a gradual improvement set in,
with the result that fewer members
were reported idle each quarter than in
he corresponding quarter in the pre-
,eding year, until the last three months
1898 and the first three in 1899 And
t was not until the second and third
quarters of 1899 that the number of
he unemployed was reduced to any,
hing like normal proportions. In the
bird quarter of 1899 the proportion of
1nionists continuously employed was
scarcely a tenth of the proportion in the
irst quarter of 1897, and was less than
half the proportion in the third quarter
of 1897.-N. Y. Sun.

and read his evening paper in the shade
of its striped awning.
Arthur Wade was walking home from
his lady-love's house one evening in July.
He was one of the lovers who had been
estranged by Alpheus the previous spring.
Tonight he was gloomy and morose. Al
ice had shown a marked coldness that
evening and he remembered how their
former trouble began in just that wey.
Hes up to his old tricks again." Arthur
muttered as he came opposite the Chuck
buck cottage. He frowned darkly at IL
and at the hen-cart that showed plainly
in the moonlight.
He walked up 10 the next corner where
he stopped suddenly. He turned about
and retrGced his steps and for a long
time he stood looking at the pink and
green hen-cart.
TN do it," he said at length. Yes,
I'll do IL the very first cloudy night" and
with that he walked briskly away.
1t was several mornings later that
when Alpheus. as was his habit. went TO
the dining room window to look out at
his hen-cart, he gave a start of surprise
and exclaimed, What in thunderr' Then
he snatched up his hat and ran out into

There stood a rickety. dilapidated hem
cart. Alpheus looked at it blankly, then
his eye caught sight of an envelope tack
ed to the side. On it was written the one
word Boot" With trembling fingers he
tore it open and drew forth a five-dollar
bill.
When he went in to breakfast his eyes
were sparkling. IT'S worse than the 9TH

until they got better acquainted. Alexan-
der looked like Russian, and he had as
imperious a nature as that of any czar
that ever lived. Before he was twelve
years old there was no one able to cross
him. If he had been wicked or even ill
tempered he could have made it unpleas-
ant for the world in which he lived
which was this world, by the way-but
despite his power over people he seldom
exercised it unduly, and so ii was possible
to live in his vicinity and enjoy life.
Once in a while he exercised his power
for the good of the public. Almost every-
