AFTER FIFTY YEARS
Mother and Son See Each Other Again.

Elihu Allen, a farmer living
near Manchester, KY, recently
found his mother, from whom
he had been separated for fifty
years. She left home on account
of domestic troubles when Allen
was an infant, and his where
abouts had been unknown from
that time until a few days ago,
when she was located, by means
of an advertisement, near Bilt-
more, N. @. She lived for a
number of years, after separat-
ing from her husband in the
mountains of East Tennessee. af-
terwards drifting over into East
ern North Carolina, where she
married.
Mr.. Allen says that he resolved
when a small boy to find his
mother and has succeeded, al
though it took the better part of
a lifetime to do it. Mr.. Allen is
81 years old and his mother is 80.

Providence the Example.

In the strike commotion that
affects industry, so, greatly
throughout the country the situ-
alton in Providence is perhaps
the most instructive because of
its special freedom from compli-
cations. The street cars of Prov
idence, which were stopped by a
mob so violent in its demeanor
and action that the police were
unable to overcome it, were full
ly manned and were ready to
run, if not prevented. The Prov
idence people had to walk mere
ly and solely because the mob,
having its own ends in view, said
No.
The attack on wealth, the howl
ing about trusts and corporations,
the criticism of the relations ex-
listing between the managers of
business and their employees by
outsiders ignorant of the facts
and forgetful of the fundamental
principles on which business is
carried on, have emboldened
many groups of men who stop
work on strike to take their for
mer employers business by the
throat, even though that bust
ness be of such general concern
as public transportation.
When the people of Providence
get tired of being held up by
this lawlessness, the mob will
subside and the cars will run
again.
For a similar situation in the
anthracite coal fields a similar
process of public awakening will
begin some time, and then the
public will have coal.-N. Y. Sun.

Child Labor Law.

BY order of the county judge
the child labor law is IN force
in Paducah and as a result about
one hundred children under four
teen years of age, who were
working in factories, are today
idle. County Judge Lightfoot
has announced that he will give
his consent to allow no child to
work when there is any other
way for it to be supported.

1t must be a mighty poor ad that

failure of the 100000 United
Mine Workers of America to
force the 2,300 non union miners
of these counties to join the or
ganization; after spending $780,
600 in the IA months ending Dec.
81, 1902 (official report) or, at
the same rate, not less than 1926 =
600 during the past 10 months in
efforts to stop the mines in these
counties from working, by every
means in the power of unscrupu-
lous leaders-bribing, dynamit-
ing, burning and numbering. This
great organization, after promis-
ing eternal support to "strikers,"
suddenly withdraws all support
and leaves its dupes to starve-
or work. District No. %, too,
throws these people down and
refuses all further support. Ma
tional Board Member Wood, Sec.
Campbell and others at Norton
vile this week eloquently dis
cussed the subject and announced
the new way. The three non
union counties must go it alone
and support themselves. Camp
bell told them to pray; that he
was the only praying official in
the district; if their prayers are
not answered, then use clubs.
Wood told them the strike was
just begun. His eloquence was
cloud and long," but neither
Campbell's prayers nor Woods
elocution filled the empty stom-
achs of the discarded STRIKERS. !"
Chappell tried to fill the aching
voids with soothing drinks-at a
certain price per glass-but that
required cash, and there was no
cash. When National Board
Member Wood, who has told
more lies and made more false
promises to the foolish men who
have been beguiled by him, urg-
ed his hearers to remain longer
in hospitable Nortonville, Mad
isonville member replied that he
had walked from Madisonville,
had no dinner and saw no chance
for supper, and must walk back
home again.
The new "sub district" so
called, elected J. H. Tate, Pres,
jeff Bruce (colored) Vice Pres.
G. B. Buckner, Sec. and Treas.
AS Board Members Frank Ivey
and Doc Smith were elected.
No member of this sub district
is allowed to work. If he vio-
lates this rule he gets no supplies.
Neither Wood nor Blakeley, both
members of the National Board,
advised how these people are to
live without work or support.
Probably Watkins and Barnaby
will contribute the two fine hous-
es they are building or own in
Sturgis. Jim Wood may con-
tribute his bank stock or his
business houses or his handsome
residence. Sec. Campbell may
send them one of his farms or
some of his town lots and houses.
Sam Chappell and National Board
Member Blakeley may contrib
ute all or a part Of the fat sala-
ries they receive. Ben Kissen-
ger, if here, might give some of
the $3.50 per month he claimed
he was making when he managed
the camp at Nortonville.
President John Mitchell has
probably too much on hand just
now to think of the "strikers" Of
Hopkins county. His effort to
teach the foreigners, who work
in the anthracite mines and
speak no English, but talk in %
different dialects, how to pay as
sessments and big salaries to U.
M. w. officials, will keep him
busy enough for a long time.

Our sympathy goes out to the
boy of tender years who is forced
to wear hot shoes and stockings
through the summer to satisfy
the pride of a parent who would
sacrifice comfort to appearances.
1t is torture to the child and a
useless expense to the parent.
Let the boys be boys, with free
dom Of foot and comfort of limb.
Manhood, with its cares and re-
strictions, will come only too
soon, and then it will be the
greatest of pleasures to look back
to the happy, careless days when
he stirred the dust with his toes,
padded and pubbled with per-
feet abandon and dreamed not
of such a thing as toiling for a
living or suffering from corns.
Put your pride in your pocket
and the child's shoes in the
closet and you will both feel bet
ter in the end. Many a boy in
these degenerate days grows to
mans estate without personal
or practical knowledge of sore
feet, stubbed toes, stone bruises,
and other blessings reserved for
the barefooted brigade.
People grow old by thinking
themselves old. When they
reach the age of forty or sixty
they imagine they look like 9th
ers of the same age, and that
they will soon be worthless, unfit
for work and unable to perform
their wonted duties. AS surely
as they think this it will come
true, for thought is creative.
How many of us can say with
Job, "The thing which l greatly
feared is come upon me-" One
writer boldly asserts that the
time has come when children will
not be allowed to celebrate their
birthdays; when they will know
that by thinking themselves
young they will remain young,
and they will cease to grow old
when they cease to believe in old
age. The body is built up of be-
liefs, and our beliefs are stamped
on every fiber of our beings.
When we believe, what we think,
that we are, so people who re-
main young in spirit never grow
old.
The Ladies Home Journal, af-
ter having "worked" the news

A. DOWN IN THE MINES. #

PANu W hOh-uhiOh hiChJ oOuhu
very familiar to Kentucky ears.
Great is the Brotherhood CD of
the United Mine Workers of
America. No savage tribe in
the whole world can surpass it
in deceit, in monstrous atroci-
ties.
Generally speaking picnics are
considered occasions when a spirit
of joviality is supposed to rule
the day, and where the best the
market can afford as regards ed
ibles is one of the chief attrac-
tions that cause the people to
congregate, but what we may
say was sad contrast to these
usually jolly affairs was the pic
mic given by the U. NJ. w. at
Nortonville one day last week.
One who witnessed the process
sion as it moved to and from the
grounds was deeply impressed
with the great solemnity that
seemed to cast its influence over
the entire crowd which probably
numbered, all told, farmers and
all, four hundred people. So
solemn, indeed, was it that he
was reminded of funeral pro-
cession-in fact one onlooker
remarked it was really the fu-
neral following the death of that
organization in this county; es-
pecially was this true on their
homeward march, both tired out
and hungry, because on the pic
mic ground, we are told, but one
box of sardines was seen and this
could not be eaten for lack of
crackers. None Of the usual at
tractive stands where supplies
for the inner man could be pur-
chased was seen, although we are
told that quite supply of whisky
and beer was used on the grounds,
80 sorrow and hunger was de-
picted on their countenances as
they wended their way home
ward. The cause of this heavy
gloom, we are told, was the dis
position shown of late by the
chief officers of the organization
to cut off both salary and food
supplies to almost the vanishing
point, hence without work or
means their condition was indeed
a deplorable one and sadness was
justifiable. How different was
the condition of these miners two
years ago when they were con-
sidered among the most prosper
Gus class in the county; then
they worked at their vocation for
reliable companies, at good
wages; their families were well
dressed and able to attend picnics
with wearing apparel in the
height of fashion, the miners had
plenty of money in their pockets
to use in the purchase of the
necessaries and happiness of life,
but Satan appeared on the scene,
and the condition of affairs as
above referred to is the result.
False promises made by unscru-
pulous agitators have blighted
many lives in this mining region.
Sorrowful, indeed, it is.
We have often referred to the
fact that one of the chief results
of the agitator and followers was
saloons, and to corroborate that
statement we ask the readers of
The Bee to look around and see
how few of these idlers can be
found in darlington and Sebree,
where the liquor attraction is
missing. Go to Madisonville and
see the gang that swarm around
the saloons where their dropping
spirits can be revived by liquor.
The false report was put in
circulation last week, evidently
by the U. M. W. in justification
of their starvation trip to Nor
tonville, that the Oak Hill COM
pany had completely surrendered
to the soap house brigade.
The "damn nigger," as he was
