To Honor John Mitchell.

A movement has been started among
the coal miners to set apart one day
of the year for recreation and speech
making in honor of their national
president, John Mitchell. There is
no doubt that Mitchell deserves great
credit for his generalship as head of
the miners organization. In a short
time he has succeeded in building up
healthy, prosperous and peaceful or
ganization out of an overworked, dis
contented, unorganized people. Mitch
ellis modesty prevents him from TAX
ing any credit for the present condi-
tions Of the miners. He says that the
men themselves are responsible for
their present condition, but the miners
know that it was his wisdom on meth
DDS Of organization that raised their
association to the high standard it oc-
cupies among the operators and gen
eral public

Upon arrival Lieut.. Harris at once

that it is not strange that it is to be

of George H. Ennis of Troy, N. Y. his
idea being to make the current do the

Making of Artificial Hair.

Artificial hair has been a difficult
material to make. Cocoanut and
agave fbres have been much used for
stun1ng furniture, and chemical treat
ment Is claimed to make them imper
vious to wet, odorless, elastic, unfelt-
able and unbreakable. But their short
length limits their use in fabrics. The
success of silk from cellulose has led
some manufacturers at Frankfort-on-
the-Main to make further trials. with
the same substance, and they seem to
have produced not only a very salts
factory imitation horse hair, but a
very good substitute for human hair
for wigs. Brittleness Of the cellulose,
the troublesome dinfculty, was over
come by spinning several threads to-

To Organise freight Hustlers.-

Seven thousand freight hustlers"
employed by railroad companies in
Chicago are to be organized. A com
mittee OF the workmen requested
President James H. Bowman OF the
Chicago Federation of Labor to un-
dertake the work, and he detailed
Chairman John Fitzpatrick of the
organization committee to start the
Freight Handlers union.
The Chicago "hustlers" were aroused
by the strike of their fellow workmen
in Boston and what they consider
their unsatisfactory pay for long hours
OF labor. Circulars have been sent to
them, and 1t is expected that meet
ing will be called early next week.
The freight handlers, it is said. are
not SO we'll off as the section hands.
Their pay ranges from $1.25 to $1.5o
a day, often uncertain in length. but
always longer than ten hours. When
they are organized they will affiliate
with the Chicago Federation Of Labor.

The Girl of Yesterday.

Tho Girl of Yesterday. =
Her hands are wrinlSlea and palsied ~ =
- And her brow is decked with gray,
And we see no trace in the careworn race
OF the girl of yesterday:
But she dreams as her sun is setting
OF the Joys OF time she knew
And her hopes and fears and her smiles
and tears
Pass by In a long review.
She sits in her life's long winter
And waits for the coming spring.
And the tears arise in her dim old eyes
AS she toys with a wedding ring;
And she sees in the open fire
The bride of the long ago.
And the glad strains roll from the or
gans soul
To an echo, sweet and low.
An! you who would be forgetting.
Gaze now on this wrinkled face
That once was fair as the silken hair
That lent it youthful grace
You live in the glad tomorrow,
But your debt is heavy to pay;
Let your homage fall to the queen OF
them all
To the girl of yesterday.

COpPor-plated Doors.
It is reported that q process of COW
ering wooden doors with sheet metal
by means OF electrolysis Is now being
experimented with at Bridgeport,
Conn. The excellent fre-resistins

with tin plate have long been recoE-

has happened with doors built wholly
Of iron. A tin plate covered door has,
however, poor appearance, and 1s
therefore suitable only for workshops
and warehouses. BY depositing cop
per or bronze electrolytically it is
hoped to provide doors suitable for
buildings of all kinds, says Engineer
ing. The method followed is to place
the carefully finished wooden door In
hot solution of fossil gum in linseed
oil. This completely closes the pores
of the wood with an impervious var

to the electrolytic bath the solutions
are not absorbed. On removal from the

Homes of French Working men.

The home of the French working
man is necessarily very modest
abode. Rent in Paris and all the larger
cities is very high and hence the work
ingman limits his home to two or fouS
rooms at most. He does not dare ex-
ceed the 5O0-franc limit of rent an
nually, as whatever is beyond is SUBJ
ject to municipal taxation. In tho
northern parts of France philanthropis
manufacturers have built hundreds Of
cottages, initiating English and Ameri-
can examples; but the buildings are
poor. cold and absolutely destitute OF
sanitation. In Paris. as in the country
sanitary arrangements of all sorts are
almost entirely lacking.

Sprsad d of Electricity,

1t is said that electricity is to re-
place oil for lighting in Balixe, Brit
ish Honduras. A bill is now before
the colonial councils and is likely to
pass, authorizing the district board Of
Balize to contract for the establish
ment of an electric light plant in that
town, and granting the contractor the
privilege OF lighting public and pri-
vate houses. The plant will probably
be ordered in the United States.

Edison ~ Work ON New Ides.
Thomas A. Edison has practicall,
completed work en- his new storage
battery, which is expected, because OF
its economy of space and power. to
revolutionize power and traction, and
shortly, according to Electricity, an
experimental station will be in opera
ton in the buildings Of the Edison
company at Silver Lake. N. J. New
buildings have been erected on the
cOmpanys ground. and these, with
the old structures. will be utilized in
making models Of the batteries. In
two months it is expected the battery
will have been completed and if the
results are as satisfactory as the in
ventor anticipates, the work OF manu-
featuring for the market will begin.

Wood Preservation by Electricity.
A method OF preserving wood by
electricity is described in \ recent
number OF Praktischer Maschinencon-
structeur, which is said to be applicable
to woods for all purposes, from that
for railroad ties to that for fine furni-
ture. The apparatus used, according
to the account. is simple. 1t consists
OF a wooden box upon the bottom OF
which a lead plate is placed and con-
nected with the positive pole O.
the electrical source. Upon this
plate the wood to be treated
is then put and over it an
other plate connected with the negative
pole. The box is then filled with q
solution Of borax, resin and sodium
carbonate. The effect OF the current
sing to drive the sap out OF the wood
Id replace 1t with the preserving so
Hion. The wood is kept under treat
tent for from Ave to eight hours,
:hsn it is taken out and dried either

The Hospital for Incurables is now
entirely ready to receive patients, and
it is intended to remove all the suffer-

There are in all eighteen patients
who will be transferred under the

who has acted as physician and super
intendent of the Victoria Hospital, and
will enter the new hospital in similar
capacities. There will be no difficulty
in removing the patients, only one hav-
