help in their disputes. A large pro- portion of the community objects to such coercive measures, and will be more apt to take sides against the workingmen where they are Tesorted to.
 ..The most severe criticism brought against the modern use of the injunc- tion in labor disputes is that by this means citizens are deprived of their constitutional right of trial by jury as regards criminal acts. A large majority of injunctions in labor dis putes have prohibited acts which, ac- cording to common or statute law, are criminal. 4 reply to the criti- cism is made on the ground that mod ern conditions call for new remedies, particularly as regards labor disputes connected with interstate carriers; and that the antitrust act of 1890 grants specific authority for injunctions against combinations in restraint of interstate commerce.
 Tt is undoubtedly desirable that this extraordinary process of injunc- tion should be employed with greater conservatism than has been the case during the past decade. However severely the acts of strikers against which injunctions are usually direct ed may be condemned, this is, in many cases, scarcely q proper method of checking them"

Although Dead. It is Bound to Become
 Famous.
 Last evenings Hartford Post, T. p. Wells, editor. offers sympathy once more to Waterbury as follows:
 ''Waterbury's misfortunes come in punches. The big blaze is followed by the announcement that David Sheehy'S $ rooster is dead. Touching the demise, our valued Waterbury contemporaries have touching obituaries. The rooster was imported from Ireland and was a precious piece of poultry. Wednesday night a dog got into the coop, a des- perate struggle ensued, and yesterday morning the rooster was a corpse. The obsequies took place yesterday after noon This is bald and brief sum- mary of the pathetic story of life, struggle and death.
 The pity of it is that it was the rooster and not the dog that went to the grave. The affair is more than a personal loss to MT Sheeny-it is q pub lie calamity. Waterbury was just get ting into a position where it could crow Conditions in which q rooster would fill a felt want were ripening Waterbury was convinced that it again has a right to crow, and Mir Sheehy' S imported chanticleer was being relied upon to rise to the situation and to meet the exigencies of the occasion Ah death is rude visitor and it ruth lessly upsets the most careful plans As the renowned immortal poet whose name We have forgotten once put it: "'With qual face pace Impartial Fate Knocks at the hencoop and the palace gate"

HOW THE DIR BECAME KNOWN

A West side physician has hit upon novel way of attracting public atten- ton to his office and setting the tongues of gossips wagging. Re gently he had his house-a frame structure-painted a most outlandish color. The shade of the paint on the building proper is bad enough,sbut the border and the color with which he had the veranda decorated are inf nitely worse.
 The other day 2 neighboring drug gist, referring to the fact that people were commenting on the appearance of his house. asked the doctor why he had chosen so odd color.
 "Well you see" replied the disciple of Esculapius, people will talk about Dr Bank anyway, so I thought I would give them something to talk about. Milwaukee Sentinel.

KELcEY-SHANNoN

Poli's will undoubtedly be well filled this evening, when Herbert Kelcey and Fife Shannon appear in Her Lord and Master" There are perhaps no two persons on the American stage to-day whose personal popularity is greater than that of MT Kelcey and Miss Shannon. Her Lord and Mas fer7 was especially written for them by Martha Morton. and if report is cor rect it is one of the most distinguish ing triumphs of the present dramatic season. and by far the most admira bly, adapted and strongest vehicle in which they have ever appeared. Her Lord and Master" takes as a basis for the story an International marriage be tween a typical American girl and an English lord. which is claimed to be a most happy galaxy of pathos and com edy, at all times keenly appealing and the same time thoroughly logical. MT Kelcey and Miss Shannon have the highest reputation as players of thigh life in its strongest and most en- crossing views, but it is claimed that they have never had play to equal the new one nor has the stage ever seen acceptable realism so forcibly portrayed as in "Her Lord and Mas ter. and from the generous applause which 1t has received from both press and public. it is safe to say that the new play here will prove a great event from both social and dramatic stand. point Prices are D, 50. 75 cents.

X committee from the Buff fers' and Polishers'. union is making visits to the merchants whose stores were burned and requesting them not l to purchase National cash registers.
 In reference to this register. q letter was received from the local union in | Dayton, Ohio, referring to copies of i Dayton paper which are being dis l tributed all over the country. It contains an editorial which describes at length the many good things which the National Cash Register company has done for it's employees The let ] ter states that the editorial is far | from right. The letter is accompan- jed by copy of a paper which shows l the injustice of the register company to it's employees The following were named as international officers by the local union President, Nich- olas Dutle.

Nothing ever suggested as a means of settling disputes between employ CTS and employees has been so satis- factory as arbitration. In the nature of the case it is likely to involve some thing of concessions; in fact they must be involved. since the work of arbitra- ton begins with the presentation of two claims materially at variance, else there would have been no disagree ment to arbitrate But arbitration al- so begins it's operation with the con- cession that strikes are always injur- 1ous to all parties concerned. The en- ployes engage in their work as q means of support for themselves and their families. They have no time that they can afford to devote to idle waiting, with their daily wages suspen- ded. Even if they are reimbursed by a strikers fund. their support is never l so sweet and independent as when it is earned by honest toll at their trade or occupation
 Then the employer can never well aHord the suspension of his business with the uncertain feature relative to an early resumption. Tn all respects l 9 strike Is an unfortunate comDliea. ton. expensive to all concerned and detrimental to every interest of the employers and employed. That ii ] is method sometimes necessary Is firmly believed by many men. and thie proposition is not here in dispute. But the fact remains that any method o1
 settling differences which can bridge
 the objectionable features of q strike
 is a boom to all who employ help ant all who seek employment as a mean: of support.-Brockton. Mass. Times

Waterbury Democrat., 1902-02-15

In reading of the demand of the New Haven carpenters for an in- crease of pay, the writer recalls a conversation which he had with a leading member of the Carpenters union one day last week He said that at meeting of the carpenters and joiners earlier in the week one or two members of the union were in favor Of demanding higher rate of wages, but the great majority of the members considered that such q demand would be unwise at this time and would place the members of the local union in a bad light before the public. Agent Sandiford especially was more than outspoken against such demand being made. This only tends to show that the mem i bers of the Carpenters union are not seeking trouble but are anxious to continue their amicabla relations with the master builders.
Waterbury Democrat., 1902-02-15

The members of the carpenters, and joiners, union evince great pleasure over the decision rendered by Judge Burpee, finding Agent SanditordN not guilty of the charge of intimidation brought against him by Contractor Lawlor. Agent Sandiford was only doing his duty to the union in seeing that the rules of the union were obey ed.

It was thought that there would be an influx of carpenters and joiners ln- to the city shortly after the ire. As a number of joiners in the city were not working, circulars were sent out by the local union advising carpenters in other cities of the state of affairs III Waterbury and stating it would be bet ter for them not to come here.

New York. March s-"England is not
the best place In the world for an In
ventor TO conduct experiments" said
william Marconi at the Hoffman House
last evening, "and she must remember
that there are other countries whose
shores are washed by the Atlantic ocean,
and where better treatment is accorded
one who has new ideas TO demonstrate.
1T can be better explained" he con-
tinued, 'if the words OF the British post
master general are quoted correctly, by
stating that the act Incorporating the
government telegraph lines OF Great Brit
ain, l think, was passed by parliament
in 1870, with clause that no person or
persons may maintain telegraph stations
from any point I'm Great Britain TO an
other point In the island kingdom but
a station may be maintained IL the end OF
the line is in another country.
This was evidently designed TO meet the
panies. and II is now applied 10 us. We
