BENARES.

Behind this long length of bathing steps irregular in height, in slope, i'll everything save an inevitable crowning by the tall spires-lay Benares. Ben ares the only city i'll the world-since the reputation of Rome lives by works as well as faith-whose every stone tells of that search after righteousness which lies so close to the heart of hu- manity. Benares with it's sunless al- leys, full of the perfume of dead flowers and spent incense; alleys which thread their way past shrine after shrine, holy place after holy place; mere niches in a worn stone perhaps; or less than that;-only the bare in- print of a bloody hand on the tall, blank walls of the crowded tenement houses which seem to narrow Gods sky as they rise up toward it. Be nares, where the alien master steps into the gutter to let a swinging corpse pass on it's way to the sacred river, but where the priest behind it-his dark forehead barred with white, or smeared with a bold patch of ochre- steps into the opposite gutter, and clings to the shrine-set W@al like a limpet, lest he be defiled by a touch, a shadow. Benares which is, briefly, the. strangest, saddest city on Gods earth!-Flora Annie Steele, in Frank I.eslia's Popular Monthly for August.

DESTROYING A CITY.

In the contest between the Steel trust and the Amalgamated associa- tion the mayor of McKeesport, Pa.. who is very earnest Sympathizer with the striking workmen of the Steel trust recently announced thlt if the men would all go on strike, the municipality would immediately ap- propriate half million dollars for street improvements, and that in this way work enough would be provided to keep all the men busy until next year. This was of course intended to show the steel trust managers that the iron workers of McIeesport could live for year if necessary without receiving dollar in wages from the steel trust.
 Yesterday the steel managers made the announcement that one of the two huge establishments at McKees- port owned by the trust would be immediately dismantled and the ma chinery removed to a site in the Kis- kiminetas valley, many miles distant It will be seen at once that this an- nouncement blocks the scheme of public improvements in McKeeseport as Mayor Black advertised. If the strike is prolonged the threat of the management is to remove not only the Dewees- Wood mill, which is going to IIiskiminetas, but also the great Ma tional Tube works, to Conneaut on the shore of Lake Erie. the point selected by Andrew Carnegie last year, for the huge tube works which he then threat ened to build as rival to the Nation al Tube works.
 These are no idle threats on the part of the steel managers, because the present site of the works at Me- Keesport is by no means the best pos sible for the works. That place is now a aourishing city of 43,000 peo- pie, but if the two plants, which have cost SIG, ,000,0 900, and furnish employ ment to over 10000 people, are taken away the city will not only be crippled but practically destroyed. Of course the city government would find it diff ficult to borrow money for municipal Improvements under such circum- stances. Hartford Times.

SETTLEMENT OF STRIKE.
Industrial Commission Will Endeavor
 to Suggest Means.

! E
 Washington, Aug 144-The great strike in the steel industry has given rise to many suggestions regarding means for preventing such conflicts be tween capital and labor. The long popular remedy that the government intervene ito, settle such difficulties is among the suggestions to- reach the desired endl This, among other pro positions, will come before the indus trial commission next month, when that body will meet to frame it's re port It will first dispose of its re- port on trusts to congress, with recon mendations for legislation.
 Leaders of organizations who have been before the industrial commission as witnesses have shown no sympathy with the idea that the settlement of their disputes be taken out of their hands. MT Gompers when on the stand, clearly indicated his confidence in labor in organized form to bargain for itself and to take care of its interr ests. He indicated his Indifference to Iegislationas ameans of assisting labor, simply because he felt that the best result would come from labor's own efforts. Very generally it was shown that labor organizations were opposed to being incorporated. because of the liability imposed on them by such in- corporation.
 The fact that there are lines of in- dustry employing many thousands of men in which the workmen are fully organized and i'll which there have been no strikes for many years is pointed to as an evidence that capital and labor organizations may treat to their mu- tual advantage and avoid strikes '
 The five brotherhoods,o of railroad em- ployeS comprise one ofbthe strongest, if not the strongest, labor organization connected with single industry in the world. Many railroads employ only members of the organizations for the work covered by the organizations.
 The organizations discipline their members to guarantee efficient service, and they are fraternal and beneficial to are constantly treatineg with railroad officials in relation to disputes between employees and the companies.
 Railway men spoke only favorably of the five brotherhoods of railroad employees, and the testimony taken be- fore the commission showed that the railways and employees regarded their plan of dealing with each other mu- tually desirable for many reasons.
 They have agreements as to wages and conditions of labor. The men have a right to strike if they cannot mako satisfactory agreem ents and the rail- road officials can reduce wages if they want to do #. But there have been for years no disputes between the two par ties to these agreements that have not been settled amicaDly.
 There is nc likelihood that the ;Il- dustriai commission will recommend any plan for governmental Interference with labor disputes other than those that involve mere conciliation thai would include no exercise of power tc enforce anything.

IMPRINTED CHECKS AND DRAFT
Commissioner Yerkes Gives Out a

Commissioners Yerkes Gives Out a
 Statement as to CanceIing.
 Commissioner Yerkes of the internal revenue bureau has given out state ment regarding the return to bankers of imprinted checks and drafts that have been sent to his bureau in order that the stamp thereon might be re- funded in pursuance of the act of March 2, 1901. The banks and other owners of imprinted checks and drafts requested that the internal revenue bureau cancel each check in such q manner as to render it's further use possible and then return same to it's original owner
 They were informed that under the existing law it seemed impossible to comply with these requests. The com missioner says that the extent to which these checks and drafts are being sent in for redemption shows that large pecuniary loss will. fall upon banks and owners if the checks and drafts are de stroyed after refund is made for the stamps thereon.

THE FORGE OF DIPLOMACY.

"When Speaker Henderson was at the Waldorf-Astoria before going to Europe" remarked one of his friends the other day. "I learned the force of diplomacy in way that I shah never forget It all happened because of some 15-cent cigars which had been present ed to the speaker. I had shaken hands with him. and he had slapped me over the back a couple of time most hearti- ", when he asked me to have a cigar. Well, sir, had never seen such cigar before. You don't get 'em where was born in Vermont. They were all wrap. ped in gold leaf and had black silk ribbon around 'em.
 s'Well, took one, peeled off the geld leaf, and put the gold leaf in nay hip pocket so no one could teal it.. Well, sir, after I had undressed that cigar, I'll be blamed if ,Iscould tell which was the fire end and which was the mouth piece. The two ends both came to-a point Have light said the speaker, suddenly, so suddenly that made wild guess which end was the mouth piece, and. biting it off, lit the other end.
 ssWell, sir, the taste of that mouth piece-I can't describe it. It tasted something like cologne and it went into my nose and started me to coughing. Another thing that alarmed me still more was the way that cigar burned. Sparks of fire shot out now and then as from green wood and bubbles of sap swelled up on the wrapper and then ex- ploded into little green smoke balls.
 "I hadn't smoked very long before my jaw began to ache. I took the blame thing out of my mouth and rest ed my jaw a little but as soon as I stuck the cigar in my teeth again the jaw ached all the more. The reason was that the end I had lit was so heavy and the cigar was so long that it kept prying my mouth open like a lever
 .sThe cigar had no sooner begun to burn and draw well than it began to unravel. First the wrapper came loose and hung like a washing on a line. Then lot of filings and what looked to me like brown excelsior dropped out of it on my trousers. The filings were all afire and to save myself from being burned alive I dashed the whole business, wrapper. excelsior, filings and all into a cuspidor.
 s.Guess I lit the wrong end of that cigar said after the danger had been averted.
 Guess you did, replied the speak CT, after he had stumped across the room a couple of times. which only shows the force of diplomacy he add ed. and that even cigar must be ap- preached the right way New York Tribune

INFLUENCE OF CONVERSATION.


 The setting of ones self up as a sort of reformer and making all the young men dwhom you know feel as if they were under a microscope which will disclose all their defects, will not aid yol. or them. The right step to take first is to set up a high and noble standard for yourself, and then demon- Strate its charms by your own attrac- ton, says the Ledger Monthly.
 One way in which a pleasant girl friend can help a mans life is by the character of her conversation. What one wants to accomplish is to speak freely and pleasantly about things which are delightful to talk about, to avoid gossip and evil speaking of oth- CTS, to use clean, pure English, with out slang, and to lead the conversa- ton into impersonal channels.
 She should know enough of current events to speak understandingly about the things that we all ought to know, and which all young men like to dis cuss-the things which stir the na- tion's heart; the events which rouse the attention of the world; the books which excite public attention; the beautiful things of the earth which arc about you; the good deeds of good men and women who are helping the world along; to check an unkind tale bearing or insinuation, or especially any criticism of girls you know. A man goes away refreshed from a visit which has made him think and talk of such things, and especially if he has sweet, bright young girl to talk to. The world our young men have to work in is q hard, rough place, and they have no time to think quietly over what lies outside of the confines Of their days work. To find that their girl companions have always some new. interesting thing. sincerely and simply good to talk about, is great source of enjoyment and big step IupMard.

WATERVILLE DAILY TALK
MARTIN HOLDS THE FOX HUNT
 ING RECORD.

Knows Where The Foxes Are And is
 a Dead Shot-A Large Number in
 Vicinity of Branch Reservoir-Some
 Lively Hunts Anticipated
 During the past few weeks several foxes have been caught within a few miles of Wateryille in the hills. There are quite a few sportsmen, especially fond of this sort of recreation as they call it, and the haunts of sly reynard are known but to the few. Within a short distance of the Branch reservoir six foxes were shot by one man last year and he says there are many more to be found among the rocks and ledges. A man namer Wakeman, who is the owner of an extensive farm near the reservoir, frequently sees foxes and has shot at them near his poultry house.
 Fred Martin. a wen known knife maker, probably holds the record here for fox hunting and is perfectly famil- far with their lairs. MT Martin has enjoyed unusual luck in capturing the wary animals and is dead shot. Time after time MT Martin has returned from Northfield and the Branch reser- yoir with more game than he could conveniently carry on bis bicycle. Al though the law won't be off yet for some time, many shots are heard in the woods and hills which would in- dicate that some of the boys know how to have little fun with no one being the wiser. There is a state bounty of $1 on foxes with the skull attached, the skin being returned to the owner. Some lively hunts will take place this fall from the manner. in which the boys are planning.
 Another pool match is being arrang- ed to be played in the near future.
