Facts Regarding Labor Troubles
Occurring in Germany.
Consul General at Frankfort Reports
That OF 800 Strikes, 81 We're sue
cessful, 81 Partially So and 146
Were UnsuccessfuI.

Richard Guenther, consul general at
Frankfort, furnishes the state de-
partment with statistics of strikes in
Germany obtained from the imperial
statistical Office at Berlin. He says:
''The number of strikes not settled
on January L. 1900, was 46; new strikes
inaugurated during the first three
months of 1900, $50; terminated dur
ing the first three months of 1900,
BOB. This latter number affected L.
e22 managements, of which 943 were
closed down completely. Under all of
the 1922 managements the number of
employees was S1,151, of whom 1852
quilted work. In 272 arrangements
the strike did not extend to all en-
ployes. The highest number of en-
ployes striking at the same time was
35,606. One thousand seven hundred
and thirty-eight employees were forced
to be idle. OF the 3O3 strikes 81 were
entirely successful, 81 partially SO,
and 145 were unsuccessful. The strikes
affected the following industries:
Mining, quarrying, metal working,
machinery, chemical illuminating,
textile, paper, leather, wood carving,
food articles, clothing, building, poly
graphic, artistic, commercial, and
transportation. OF the 46 strikes in
augurated before January 1, 1900, AZ
were terminated, during the first three
months of this year, and of the $50
strikes begun during this period 261
terminated before April 1, 1sO0.''

MARRIED A WHOLE FAMILY.
Career of a Kentucky Man Who We'd
ded Three Sisters, One of
Them Twice.

The Moore family certainly held out
attractions to S. w. Hodge of Win
chester, KY, for he married three sis
ters, one of them twice, was divorced
from two of his wives, while the third
now seeks legal severance of the tie
that binds her to the attractive
Hodge. Each of his wives brought
forward charges of cruelty in her plea
for divorce. To the plea of cruel and
inhuman treatment the last wife has
added the charge of misappropriating
her property. Hodge came to Win
chester about ten years ago. To wom-
en- he was fascinating, and he quick
ly won the hand of Miss Anna Moore,
daughter of a prosperous Laurel
county farmer. They had not been
married two years before she pro-
cured a divorce. Then in another year
she died. After the death of his first
divorced wife Hodge began to pay at
tention to her younger sister. In a
year they were married, in another
year divorced. Then after the ex-
piration of six months came a recon-
ciliation and remarriage of the di-
vorcees.
The court was asked to separate
them finally within few months aft
er their second wedding. The third
Moore sister helped Hodge bring
about his fourth marriage two years
ago. Now she, too, is suing for di-

OSAGE INDIAN WINS BRIDE
IL Persistent and OvercOmes Oppose
tiOn of bis Fathers Old
Time Enemy.

A few miles west of Vinita, I. r., in
the Usage nation a novel wedding
is being celebrated. The contracting
parties are Tall Elk, an Usage Indian,
worth in his own right $4,000 and
heir to much more, and Mary Red
Eagle, daughter of a very wealthy
Usage Indian chief. Old Red Eagle
and Tall Elk's father have for years
ben bitter enemies, and for that rea-
son the father of the beautiful squaw
would not allow Tall Elk around his
wigwam. Tall Elk was persistent, and
finally forced the reluctant Red
Eagle to give his permission.
The wedding, celebrated after tho
Indian fashion, was, tie event of the
week among the Osages. Tall Elk
paid Red Eagle As ponies, the price
exacted by the father for the bride.
The girls mother brought her out to
the center of the square mounted on
little pony, clad in gorgeous red and
blue robes. She dismounted from her
pony, which was turned loose to be-
come the prize of the brave who could
catch it. Then Tall Elk appeared,
riding like mad in the direction of
his bride. Her mother took off the
splendid robes and left her standing
alone, clad in single rough dress.
Tall Elk caught her and carried her
away as he rode swiftly by, going
straightway to his tepee, and the
ceremony was thereby concluded.

BEWITCHED IN SALEM HOUSE
Woman in al Old Massa-

The people of Salem, Mass, are
f1ocking to see young woman who
declares that she is bewitched. Her
name is Carrie Peabody Bly,. She lives
part of the time in an ancient house
built more than 100 years ago, an adj
dition to the famous house at North
and Essex streets. The greater Por.
tion of the day, however, Miss Bly,
spends in the witchhouse itself, eth
er in the upper chamber or in the gar.

There Miss Bly, says she holds com.
munion with their spirits, goes into
frances and flies off into space and
does numerous other stunts which
have startled her townsfolk. She is
controlled, she says, by the spirit OF
Nathaniel Hawthorne and the spirits
OF Betsy Williams and other noted
personages hover about her.

War Cost $40 per Family,

The census OF 1000 is expected TT
show population for the United States
Of from 7O,000,000 to s0,0o0,O00. The
yearly current cost of holding the Phil
lpp1nes therefore amounts to nearly or
quite 81 per individual. 1t accordingly
amounts to $40 per year for each aver
age family. TO the large majority of
families in the United States tins sum is
nearly or quite equal to what the head
thereof are able 10 ear, in a week.
The taxes which z, TO meet this mos:
costly enterprise are colltcted from the
people in indlrcct and unobscrvable WAYS
but they are taken, nevertheless, from
the pockets of the people, and not a.
cordlng t" ability to pay, but according
I" the consumption mainly Of the neces-
saries of life. They are paid none the
less celtalnl j., even though indirectly
and they reduce by SO much the earnings

and enjoyment.

MINERS FIND STONE MAN.
Image of Large Proportions Dixcov.
cred at Depth of Twenty
Five Feet.

In an upper story of a South Boston
junk shop, carefully packed in straw
and excelsior, there has been for days
the stone figure of man. With the
exception of an uneven hollow in the
abdomen and few smaller imperfec-
tions in the mold, the ina &c is excel
lent. It is that of man nearly six
feet tail, lying with bent legs. and one
arm across the breast, modelled in gray
ish stone.
Several weeks ago, the story goes,
two miners digging a shaft in Sprung
gulch, near Reno, New, came upon the
image of stone. They found it at a
depth of 25 feet in gulch.
They took out the figure rather care
lessly, breaking off the feet, which
they recovered later, and sold it to
George D. Burton of Boston. 1t has
been examined by two or three per-
sons connected with the Peabody mu-
scum of Harvard university. Though
the face is said by some to be more
typical of white man than an Indian.
the profile is distinctly Indian in con-
tour. The image weighs more than
400 pounds

Es-MInlster Barrett on Expansion.

Ex- Minister Barrett on Expansion.
Randolph fired its first gun for McKin'
ley and Roosevelt Friday evening. Ii
spite OF very short notice and limited
advertising, there was a good attendance
/ Dubois e Gays hall being nearly filled.
Chairman j. b. Adams OF the town
committee presided. He asked to take
seats on the stage all those old Repu
who voted for John c. Fremont in 1856
and a number responded.
The first speaker was Judge j. K.
Parish OF Ashland, Wis, native OF Ran
dolph, now visiting his brother,
Luke. He dwelt upon all the issues, hold
! ing he most important to be the threaten
ed interference by the Democrats with
l the courts.
/ Hon. John Barrett, ex minister to Siam,
was the PRINCIPAL speaker. His sole
theme was expansion and he presented 1t
most effectively. His voice and style are
vigorous and pleasing and he was deeply
| interested in his subject
air. Barrett had an exceptional oppor-
tunity to study the Philippine question.
He was at bong Kong just before the war
with Spain and knew conditions there.
He followed Dewey to Manila, became
we'll acquainted with Aguinaido and his
compeers, travelled extensively through
Luzon, was in Manila when the insurgent
outbreak occurred, and with the Ameri-
can forces for some time afterward. He
was close to Dewey, Lawton, Stotsenburg
and Others
His address was principally a careful
history OF the Philippine affair, With
full justification of the Republican policy
at every step. He denied that the natives
were ever our allies. or that Aguinsldo
was ever so recognized by Dewey or other
officers. Aguinaldo had once been bought
of bv Spain and agreed to leave the
49, NJ DaN rafN "A h.1
was present at a banquet in Hong Kong
when Aguinaldo, whom the anti-imperial-
lists hail as modern George Washington,
responded to a toast given TO the infant
king OF Spain as "the fairest OF earth's
sovereigns.n
The Americans were at first received
by the Filipinos with Joy. He ascribed
the revulsion to lies industriously clrcu-
luated By Aguinaldo through pamphlets
and papers, describing the Yankees as
s'pigs,n and saying that they would en-
slave the natives. The ignorant people
believed this and the raising of Agui.
nsldo's army was easy. Arms we're cap
tured from the Spanish garrisons scattered
about and Others Struggled in.
MIR. Barrett described the attack made
on the Americans at Manila, saying IL
was pre-arranged and unjustihable. He
maintained that it was our duty to sup
press the revolt and repress the turbulent
element among the natives which wanted
independence merely as an excuse for
license. He dwelt on the Importance OF
the islands to the United States, both for
their own worth and as a depot to the
open door OF the East. He showed how
America had grown before the world
by the events OF the past two years and,
in closing, urged Vermonters to do their
duty next month. The address created a
deep impression on all who heard 1t.

plation. He is mistaken in this asser-
ton. Wyoming does not contend that
Colorado shall not use the water Of
the Big Laramie for irrigation pur-
poses, but It does contend that it should
not divert from said stream water
which has been previously appropriate
ed by residents of this state. We hold
to the doctrine that prior %appropria-
ton gives the better right. Our inter
ests as a state are perhaps along the
other line OF the argument. for the rea-
son that we have many large streams
which rise in Wyoming and flow into
other states. In fact only a few Of our
streams rise in other states.
There is Just one safe ground upon
which the irrigators OF the arid states
can stand and that is upon the doctrine
OF prior appropriation.

A sERENADE OF WOLVES.

In the May Century, Ernest Seton
Wolf" Thompson, from his familiar
ty with this particular form Of wild
animal, tells how he started a wolf
serenade at the National Zoo" In
Washington.
While making these notes among
the animals OF the Washington Zoo,
| used to go at all hours to see them.
Late one evening l sat down with some
friends by the wolf cages, in the light
of a full moon. I said, Let us see
whether they have forgotten the mu-
sic of the west" l put up my hands
to my mouth and howled the hunting
song Of the pack. The first to respond
wa a coyote from the plains. He re-
membered the wild music hat used
to mean pickings for him. He put up
his muzzle and "yap-yapped" and howl
ed. Next an old wolf from Colorado
came running out, looked and listen
ed earnestly, and raising her snout to
the proper angle, she took up the wild
strain. Then all the others came run
ming out and Joined in, each according
to his voice, but all singing that wild
wolf hunting song, bowling and yell
ing, rolling and swelling, high and low,
in the cadence OF the hills.
'"They sang me. their song of the
west, the west,
They set all my feelings aglow;
They stirred up my heart with their
artless art.
And their song Of the long-ago."
Again and again they raised the cry
and sang in chorus till the whole
moonlit wood around was ringing with
the grim refrain-until the inhabitants
in the near city must have thought all
the beasts broken loose. But at length
their clamor died away, and the wolves
returned. sunk back to their dens, ST.
lently, sadly I thought, as though they
realized that they could indeed join
in the hunting song as Of old, but their
hunting days were forever done.
