New York, June 6-Orect response
bility for the condition of child labor
existing in southern mills is charged
by an H. glshwoman, who has been
investigating the subject for Samuel
Gompers. to capitalists and mill own
ers in New York and other northern
cities. The woman is Miss Irene A.
Ashby, and she recently visited Ala
bama and other southern states on
tour of investigation. In speaking OF
her experience before the Social Re.
form club She said:
Half the Operatives Children.
~ found that in many mills in Ala.
bama and Georgia one-half of the OPP
eratives were children; and in some
cases the percentage ran as low as
six or seven. Their ages ranged from
five TO twelve. and. of course, beyond.
THE mill owners and proprietors
said IN eNtenuation that they had
taken these people from their little
farms. where they were living in con-
ditions of the utmost poverty, and
brought them together in commune
ties and made of them an industrial
people.
but the children saw living on the
little farms had bright cheeks and
round limbs. while those | saw in the
mills were haggard and wan.
Own the Legislature Also.
"Having seen these conditions as
they exist to-day, throughout the
south, | went to the capital of Ala
bama and with others tried to get
bills through the legislature prohibit

learned that all had been cut and
dried before MS. We had the bill in
troduced. In answer they put up the
manager of mill entirely controlled
by northern capital, mill that had
been moved 70 fhe south from the
heart of New England.
THE representative they had be.

man. In rebuttal he spoke of the lace
curtains in the windows of his opera
tives. of their neat houses. but never
word of child labor. The bill was
defeated.

I'VE learned later that it is the
truth that the new south is depend

bring about the industrial develop

impending. In defeating the bill,
they cried: Don't do anything that is

We Will bring our capital. but you
must allow us to take advantage of

must have your child labor SO divi-

 "The Man in the Street, of the
 Danbury News says: If the male
 readers of this column attended the
 session of the Federated Women's
 clubs of Connecticut, held in this city yesterday, they would have found much surprising to them. Ever since have been able to read have, at regular intervals, seen humorous &C., counts of the troubles that strew the paths of women's clubs of all kinds. According to the facetious writers women have no more idea of parlia- mentary rules than they have of aer- ial navigation, and they have as much trouble conducting a meeting as a man has in threading needle. This may all be funny reading, but I'm afraid the writers of these articles do not know what they are scribbling about. In the Baptist church yesterday was held one of the best conducted meet ings ever called together in this city. No gathering of men no matter how learned, need have been ashamed of the speeches made by the women from all over the state. The, dis courses were brainy and brilliant, showing deep thoughts by bright minds. The meeting progressed in perfect order and the business was dispatched in a manner that would have done credit to the most learned association of men in the country. If all the women's clubs are doing this, then I say good luck to the women's clubs

FRATERNAL ORDERS.
What Connecticut Insurance Commis-
 sioner Says of Them.

What Connecticut Insurance Commis-
 sioner Says of Them. F. L. Scofleld, insurance commission CT of Connecticut, in his annual report just issued, makes some important statements regarding fraternal life in- surance societies. He says:
 "The reports of fraternal societies for 900 show an increase in assets over 1899 of s2,360, ,253.23, and of liabilities $379.- 419.n. The balance to protect contracts increased $2,739,672.94, an increase in membership is shown of 149,416, and the amount paid and compromised in- creased in the sum of $s5S, ,39S.62.
 These figures when taken in connec- tion and used in comparison with the increase in business in 1899 over 1893, do not in my judgment warrant the belief that any very substantial growth was achieved during 1900
 T am decidedly of the belief that the public is more and more being brought to understand that this species of in- surance is valuable only in the line of affording temporary indemnity and that it does not answer the purpose of relia- ble whole life insurance.
 "The experience of the past few years has shown with the latest possible clearness that if these institutions con- tinue their present rate and system of assessments, making no provision as against the time when there will be an increase in mortality such as the re- serve in level premium insurance pro- vides for and the expense rate is to be as at present they will pass out of existence and leave in their trail a most unsightly wreck.
 When one of these institutions has been required for any cause to sub stantially increase its assessments the practical effect has been shown to be that disintegration then sets in.
 'The acquiring of new members ceases because no one wants to become 8 member of an association whose as- sessment rate is on the increase. Mem- bers also begin to retire and enter oth-

CT associations where the rates are low CT or embrace level premium insurance.
 "The retiring merbers as rule are the best lives, the younger members, those in good health and to whom in surance elsewhere is available. The members remaining are largely the inn paired lives, those who contribute to an excessive mortality.
 Assessments necessarily increae with great rapidity and oon the point is reached where insurance becomes so burdensome that it cannot be longer continued; then the days of the institu- tion are easily numbered.
 This situation can be guarded against only by providing reserve or some fund to meet the contingency of an in creasing mortality. If done, these as- may live and serve useful purpose; but if not done, death is inevi- table,

M1GNIFICENI.
The Great New Soda Water Fountain at
 HauffB,

A town topic of late which, although not as exciting as the old state house demolition question was, has confront
 ed the jntellects and most happily touched a responsive chord in the artis-
 tic taste of thousands of New Haven
 people who indulge in soda water at
 the Hauff ice cream and confectionery
 store, is the truly massive and nlagniti- cent new soda water fountain which
 now adorns the soda water department
 Of the store. And not only New Haven
 people, but people from all the neigh
 boring toWnss have surveyed this won-, drous and lovely piece of artistic skill
 and joined in the big chorus of appro-
 bation and admiration concerning it. It
 is probably the largest and most ornate
 soda water fountain in the state of
 Connecticut. It occupies a space well
 approaching the whole width of the
 store, and towers far above the heads of the happy throngs who are constant
 ly to be seen indulging in soda water or ice cream at the store, and far above
 the heads of the busy salesmen who
 draw soda water from this big foun-
 tain. It is of Mexican onyx and beau- tiful by daylight, the resplendent blendings and delicate hues of the onyx appearing still more beautiful at night,
 when the Oriental lanterns at the sides shed many hues of color and when the electric light globes in front of the great mirrored background of the fountain give still more brilliancy to the scene. The great mirror of the fountains background is a splendid ornament in itself, and at each end of the fountain is another smaller mirror. The long counter in front of the fountain is of Italian marble, faced and trimmed with Sienna marble. The fountain was made specially to order for the Hauff store by the famous John Matthews, of New York, and MT. Hauff yesterday, speak ing regarding 1t, said that congratula- tions received on this beautiful piece of work had been many The fountain is not only beauty, but is scientifically made and most practically useful, and does splendid service. Quality the best, and only the best" is the Hauff 1 motto as to what is sold at the Hauff 1 store, and the soda water menu covers "a vast variety of delicious drinks. Get | a programme at Hauffs and see what | a host of dainty drinks are supplied | there,
