A Kansas exchange says: 1t is SO
hot and dry here that the wagons are
going around with their tongues out,
and ice has to be soaked all night before
it is wet enough to make lemonade.
Tie catfish kick up such a dust in the
bed of the Gasconade river that the
river has to be sprinkled before you
can go fishing. A spark from an
engine set the railroad pond on fire
and burned up a wagon load of bull
frogs before the fire could be extin-
pushed, and the ground is so hard
and d.y that the crawfish holes in the
low places are being pulled up and
shipped off for gas pipes.

THE FATE OF SHAFfER.

The severe denunciation of Mr..
Theodore J. Shaffer, president of the
Amalgamated association, by the
trade union organ, the Labor World
of Pittsburg, and the long array of
reasons for his impeachment which it
presents, taken in connection with un-
mistakable signs of dissatisfaction
with his declaration and conduct of
the strike by prominent union men,
clearly foreshadow his impending fate
1t is manifest to any one, remarks
the Chicago Tribune, and most of all
TO the strikers themselves, that the
strike. though not yet called off, is al
ready a failure, and many of them are
acting for themselves and quietly go
ing back to work in their old positions
or seeking new ones. They find that
organized labor will not support the
strike. and that Shaffer has gone into
il without money or the prospect of
any to contend against corporation
with surplus of millions, and that
the public has no sympathy with the
violation of contracts: Shaffer must
eventually surrender, but it is of lit
tie consequence now when he sur
renders. When the break comes it
will be the end of Shaffer. He may
90 back into the mills to work or he
NAV take up his old profession OF
preaching. 1t matters little what he
NAV do. He will drop out of public
sight.
This has been the fate of every Ia
Dor leader who has aspired to be a
GREAT strike leader when he had not
the right on his side, and the fate OF
every labor leader who has been rad
ical. an agitator. a demagogue, or a

CARRIE NATIONS HATCHET
DANCES FAIL TO DRAW
AT CONEY ISLAND.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3-Mrs. Car
RE Nation, in whose antics while
she was on the rampage on hel
native Kansas heath there was
for a time some little public in
tereSt, has now become an ad.
junct to a CoEey Island dance and
all-around amusement hall. APP.
parently it is part of her con
tract to do preliminary Ratchet
war dances and to make herself
generally noisy and offensive
enough in public places to attract
attention, get written about in
the newspapers, and SO turn in a
liberal amount of free advertising
to show with which she has an
engagement.
If this is the case, the Coney
Island dance hall managers as
suredly can find no fault with the
amount of public disturbance she
kicked up yesterday. With a
press agent at her heels, she
started early in the forenoon of
Labor day and did a good freak
advertising business up to the
time of her arrival in the after
noon at the Coney Island show
where she was billed to appear
By previous arrangement one
of the Manhattan drinking places
permitted her to smash a bottle
or two of water on the premises,
but, with this exception, all her
other liquor.store demonstrations
were entirely harmless, save that
she made herself more or less a
nuisance to people who had got
weary of reading her rant, much
less hearing it.
She went down to Coney Island
on the iron steamboat Pegasus.
and while she was on board kept
up general rumpus of one sort
and another. She made abortive
dashes at walters who were car.
rying beer to people, pretended
to make a rush for the bar on the
lower deck, and finally wound up
by climbing on a chair and max
ing a pest of herself to every
body within sound of her voice
by turning loose one of her te-
dious TRADES.
1t was all good business in an
advertising way for the show
with which she is connected, and
the holiday crowd was for the
most part good natured under it.
Furthermore, Carrie was wary
about doing things that might
entail arrest, always stopping
short of any act that could be in
terpreted as distinctively a breach
of the peace.
A glowing banner in front of
the show announced that she
was to be there, and she was, in
fact, billed to deliver three
lectures" at 4 o'clock, z o'clock,
and $50 o'clock in the evening.
1t cost so cents to hear Carrie
talk, and as comparatively few had
escaped hearing her already,
there seemed to be a general dis
position to regard the short time
that her Language was confined
to a hired hall as a sort or publlc
boon which few were inclined to
lose.
She was ready to begin the 4
o'clock lecture promptly on time,
and, although leather-lunged
bankers made records in the
barking line, there were just two
people in the hall at 4:30, and
they were deadheads. She
didn't do much at the later lect-
ures.
