The free labor bureau began business
Monday morning with w. F. Markus
in charge. From the minute Of it's
opening it has given even the most
doubtful, hope for it's success. During
first twenty-four hours Of its existence
it received forty applications for work,
and furnished work for ten men. Mr..
A. c. Volk receives the credit of being
the first person who made application
to the secretary OIL the bureau for men.
It's location so far from the center Of
the local labor market-the Union
depot and the Bowery-works against
the new agency, but In spite of that
and strenuous opposition from other
sources. the free bureau 10 gaining a
footing. 49,
The working men are patronizing 1t
more than the employers Of labor so
far. but once the employers become in
terested the promoters OF the free
bureau predict good future for it.
The office is In the Armory building,
Second avenue east and First street. It
is a long way from Michigan street,
Fifth avenue west and the Bowery,
where the workingmen have been ac-
customed to look for work. Still quite
a few of them find their way up to the
Armory, and Manager w. F. Markus
says the first days work has kept him
busy. -
The bureau is cooperating with those
already established in Milwaukee and
West Superior. It is to furnish en-
ployment to men and women without
cost to the employe or employer.
When the bureau becomes fully
established a private office will be ar
ranged for women applicants. The
plans now under consideration are to
go into the servant supply problem
very thoroughly, and endeavor to sat
isfy the great demand for cooks maids,
nurses, saleswomen, and chorewomen.
One citizen has made the suggestion
that the agency would de well to send
out literature through the state, and
especially in the farming districts, So
liciting applicants for household work.
When the applications were filed in the
office, the housekeepers Of Duluth could
Igo to the employment office and get

|s Ia this way II u claimed that the girls
would not need to- leave their homes
in the country until they could come
direct to one in the city. In this way
much temptation and undesirable asso-
Citations frequently thrust on friendless
girls in cities would be avoided. ~
There is another feature Of the em-
ployment agency business by the city.
Frequently laboring men get what they
can out Of an employment agency and
then jump their contracts. That will
not be tolerated by the city. The NUM-
cipal bureau will do what II, can to give
employment without cost, but when a
contract is broken the city ceases to
become friend.

The hog market opened strong and

before. AS to quality of the offered hogs
yesterday It may be said thar the one
top load was very choice. These We're
Sl5p0und hogs, selling without a sign
OF dock and Of fine, extra fancy stuff.
There was one other load which sold at
the next point, 2iz cents under the tops,
which might BE called extra good. These
were of medium weight. 233 pounds also
selling without any doekage. As for the
balance of the yarded hogs there can
BE nothing said TO hatter them any.
There were some few good hogs 70, but
The whole lsr OF offerings were deCid diy

A.ith coarse heavy p0rEars and 'nieger
