Among the bakers union men work 70.5 hours week average daily wages $205. Non-un- ion men work 96.4 hours a week daily wages averaging $1.79. Bakers union dues. 90 cents month.

Cigarmakers pay $1 dues month, or SIP q year, and re- ceive $1S6 a year more pay than the non-union men, while working 362 less hours. These contrasting con- ditions between members and non- members of labor organizations move the editor of the Troy Advocate to re- mark: "The unionist who invests the maximum amount of dues, SIP a year, or $1 month, and receives back for 1t $150 in additional wages, has no req son to kick about the business agent or other labor official who obtains 1t for him."

THE NEW STAGE ENGLIsHMAN.


 wonder, by the way, why English men persist in making such guys of themselves when they are in Paris The legend that "les Angliches' go to the opera in cricket caps and knicker- lockers is of somewhat remote origin and may have been true in one or two instances, but certainly is not in many. But, setting the opera aside, why do English gentlemen, I am not talking of men of another class, drive about Paris in the height of the season in this sort of attire? Of course, those who know their Paris well would never dream of doing so, and if the others knew what a deplorable impression they made they would probably be more careful in this respect likewise. Talking of typical Englishmen, I am pleased to see that the type of the stage Englishmen has changed. 1t has just begun to dawn upon stage managers that Britons no longer wear ginger colored whiskers, large white hats, and green gauge wells. Gentlemen of this type are now replaced by burly, red faced individuals with dropping mus taches and who wear loud checks. We have not quite reached the perfection i'll the art of representing the typical Englishmen but this is at any rate, a change for the better.-Paris Corr of the London Globe.

TT PAYS TO BE A UNION MAN.

United States Labor Commissioner Wright in his official report, gives the government stamp of authenticity to statistics showing the material advan- tages in wages of the union over the non-un1on workman-facts that have been published from time to time, as one trade union after another has won it's battle for better pay. Figures concerning a few trades indicate the general rule in industries of the JTni- ted States, and establish the fact that it pays to be union man." The large dividends returned for invest mentS by worllingmen in dues to their organizations are summarized as follows: The union bricklayer works 51.5 hours per week, and re- ceives an average of $3.S0 per day. The nOn-union bricklayer works 57.4 hours per week and receives an aver age daily wage of $2.17. Bricklayers' dues are not In excess of $1 q month, or SIP year, and the union brfcklay. CT receives $4S9 year more and works 312 hours less than his non- union brother. The union carpenter works B hours per week and receives an average of $253 per day. The non union carpenter works 5S hours per week and receives $213 per day. Carpenters dues are 90 cents per month, and they receive $120 q year more, while working 312 hours less time. Union painters work AS hours per week and receive an average of $2.50 per day, while the non-union man works 57 hours per week and re- ceives $1.S0 per day. The union man pays $S a year dues and receives in wages $210 more. In a year and works 46S hours less time than the union man.

twenty years of age and has been on the stage fourteen years.
 Daniel Sully, while remodeling one of the old buildings on his summer home in the Catskills, noticed that there was a scarcity of nails, the en- tire building being hewed out with an axe and put together with wooden pegs. In tearing off the roof, how ever, he ran across some nails, and on close examination they proved to be hand made, showing that the barn must have been built over one hundred years ago. MT Sully now says that Rip Van Wrinkle helped build the barn, and took his long sleep in, his back yard. l Y d6 ! GI1 dst1
 Last Monday began rehearsals of the Rogers Brothers and their com pany in John J. McNally's latest vaude- vile farce, "The Rogers Brothers in Harvard" in which4these comedians will begin their fifth annual tour at the Star theater in Buffalo August 25, opening long run at the Knicker- booker theater in New York Septem- Der l. This piece, while even more farcical than the Rogers Brothers past vehicles, is constructed on more legitimate lines, much of it's humor arising from very cleverly wrought out comic situations. The speciality features will be the most elaborate yet presented in a Rogers Brothers farce and the company will be the largest that has yet surrounded these comedians. The female chorous will be specially attractive and will present forty of the handsomest young women on the stage. The principal support ing roles will be played by Hattie Will Hams, Clara Palmer, Emma Francis, Edith St Clair, Neva Aymar, Eugene Jepson, Lee Harrison, William West, George Honey, Pat Rooney, Jr, James Cherry and Emil Heusel.s The mount i.cg of the new piece will be the most spectacular yet seen in a vaudeville farce, especially in the costuming, which will far surpass any previous effort in this direction in novelty, bril- liancy of colors and richness of fabrics. Each season Klaw S Erlanger have said that their Rogers Brothers pro duction would eclipse anything they had formerly done for these entertain CTS, and they make the same promise this year.
