SHIRT WAIST GOES.
Commercial Travellers Can Now
Dine in Their Shirt Sleeves.

In response to the requests from
numerous bodies of commercial men,
the railroads and the Pullman COM
pany are about to take a decided
stand IN favor of the shirt waist for
men. Last year there were several
unpleasant incidents caused by the
attempts of men to dine in the regu-
lar dining cars in their shirt sleeves.
When there were ladies on the
train men we're always requested
to go and don their coats before at
tempting to dine.
This year, however, everything
is changed. The commercial travel
ers protested against the absurdity
of such tormality on the trains and
the railroad officials on sounding
public sentiment found twas great
ly in favor of the shirt waist for
men. AS a result of the protest
from the travelling public, orders
will shortly be issued from railroad
headquarters that men shall be al
lowed to dine without coats pro-
vided they are CARRIED in the con-
ventional shirt waist of the latest
pattern. Similar instructions will
be issued to the employees of the
Pullman company, and the shirt
waist man will reign supreme this
| summer.

be secured the eight-hour working day

no real hope that the government

one OF the enlgmas of the industry.
Besides this. great masses OF miners,
especially in the more prosperous
localities. prefer not to be bound down
to rigid hours. They vote with the
federation. or abstain from voting, but
their interest urges them the other
