PlFTSBURC'S STRIKE
Only One Road Is Seriously
Affected.

Boaxts Of the strikers Not Fulaiied
During the First Day-Other I'm
Ions Not In ~ ympathy with
the Movement.

PITTSBtRG. Nov. 27.-Jndging by
apparent conditions. the switchmen's>
strike inaugurated yesterday morning
has proved a fiat faiore. The strike
was ordered by the Switchmens Union
of North America, and the claim was
made by the union officials that every
railroad IN the city with the exception
of the Fort Wayne and the Big
Four would he tied mp completely.
The developments. however, demon
strate that only one road. the Allegbe.
ny Valley. was seriously affected. On
this road but one crew was at work,
and the road is badly crippled. The
company officials. while admitting that
freight traffic has been practically sus-
pended. say that within twenty-four
hours they will have all the men they
need and work will be resumed as
usual
The other roads affected were the
Baltimore and Ohio. II men out; Pitts
burg Junction. IL branch Of the Balti-
more and Ohio, Ii men out; the Pitts
'tuN l.dhC men out, Nuho
the Pennsylvania, Is men out One
hundred and fifty would be high csti-
mate Of the number of men who struck.
None of these roads suffered mr.h in.
convenience. because new men were
readily secured to take the place Of the
strikers. and some of the men, upon
discovering, that the strike order had
not hgeh generally Obeyed, returned to
their places.
A meeting of the union was held in
the afternoon, and the claim was made
that the strike WAS Il success as far as
it had gone and that within forty
eight hours the members Of the union,
about 100 in number, would be cut.
The demands of the switchmen call
for the enforcement of the standard
scale Of wages.

THE TIME-CLoCKs OF LIFE.
Msnaurc nuratio" by High Thinking
aud Noble Scrvirc-Somc Not in
Good Working Order,

IL is common thing 10 hear one
say in beautiful quotation that We
do not live in hours or days, but by
"hcart-thrObs." II is very trup-~-and
yet the heart-throbs do not always
measure time as Il ought to be meas
ured. 1t depends on the character
of those heart-throbs. How many
live on through day or week or
ycar-and yet do not live AT all;
il is nothing more than existence.
No one would say of the brute that
he lives; in one sense he does, but in
very narrow sense; he exists
nothing more. Days are alike to
him; there is 10 aspiration. no seek
ing after high IDEALS When the
writer of the psalm said: "Be not as
the horse or mule" he did not neces-
sarily confine himself to suggestion
Of intractabiity, but OF real life.
When poet sang: "Be not like
dumb. driven cattie,' he had in mind
life, real spiritual life. II is the spir-
itual life that marks time. He who
has no spiritual life, whose days are
all alike to him, also has lifc-clock,
but it marks dead hours, not living
moments. Mary Emerson, speaking
of her associates, said: "We measure
duration by the number of our
thoughts, by the activity of reason,
the discovery Of truths, the acquire
ment of virtue, thr approach to God"
High thinking and noble service are
The time-clorks of life. How does
your. clock measure tine?-Baptist

for three things,if no other-Cake-

chocolate Aunt E., sent me have
tailed 10 duplicate though l have
tried. There are good stores in
New York, but there are Il whole
lot of fraud stores also where ice
cream hasn't an particle OF cream
in it, and everything they cell is u
fake. 1t isn't in the nationality.
the Germans are as a rule ! should
Aay honest peo pie, but one OF these
frauds in Brooklyn is German
family. After eating Ice Cream
there, it keeps one wondering for Il
week what it was made OF, for one
feels sure il had no cream in 1t.
The lady who keeps this board
ing house is married 10 a German,
but | think she is Scotch herself
at any rate she is alright. Nation
ality does not seem TO amount to
much sometimes. Carlyle was
honest but | have seen as big frauds

know what some Jews are. There
are fine people in all nationallt'es.
