Will NOT SLAUGHTER
WOMEN WHO DRAW THE LINE AT
THAT
Have Entered Very Many Other Lines
of Employment at the Stockyards,
But Leave Killing to Men.

Slowly but irresistibly women and
girls are forcing men out of the light
er work that is done at the stock yards
Thousands of them are employed in
the packing and canning factories
there, and if the business grows as it
has done within the last three years
thousands more will be used. In no
case, however are the women working
at anything but what might be term
ed Kitchen work. such as cutting
dried beef, packing cans stufting sau-
sages and labelling cans.
Dread has been aroused by this
growth of female labor in the yards,
and many of the social settlement lead
erS fear the time may come when the
girls will use the knife even in STAY
ing. So great has this become that
Miss Mary Mcdowell of the university
of Chicago settlement, suggested it at
meeting of the Womans Union Label
league. General opinion in the yards,
however is that the day is still far dis
tant when the girls actually will take
a hand in the killing of even a chicken.
Between 5000 and 5000 women and
girls are on the payroll of the various
stock yards houses. They form 70 per
cent of the employees in the canning
factories. In both concerns the girls,
while taking work that once was done
by men, are hired to do only the

whether they were willing to give up
their places to men.

THE question is right here" said
James ROstande, who works in the
packing department of Armour q co.
The girls have been coming in here
by the hundreds and they have taken
the light work. There is not a girl and
never will be a girl or woman who will
use the knife for slaughtering pur-
poses, but they have taken the easy
and easy money making jobs. Their
fingers are more deft than ours and
where strength is not necessary they
are doing well. 1 am under the i'm
preston that no man has been forced
out of easy work"
The girls cut and pack dried beef and
label the cans. Beef is cooked for ex-
tracts and then packed by them. They
clean and pare vegetables and put them
into cans for use. The meat extras
are trimmed and cut up by them. All
this is called Kitchen work" In addi-
ton to that the canning companies
have their girls solder the cans and
feed the tin machines.-Chicago Record

that Governor Dole has already fOrmu-

The supposition is that they crossed the

CHAPTER XIV.


The Turning of the Tide.
Whatever may have been the mys-
terry of his past life, the marquis dem
onstrated the fact beyond all perad-
venture that he was a man of action,
able to meet an emergency as it arose
and overwhelm it.
One leap and he was outside the
door of his attic room-another took
him to that OF the adjacent chamber,
from whence had come the murmur Of
voices.
He tried to open this, but was baf-
1ed-then he remembered, having
heard the key turned in the lock after
the entrance of the detected miniature
painter.
He threw his full weight forward. in
such manner that the impact was
something tremendous.
There was a crash, and the door flew
back.
Into the chamber darted the mar
quis, holding his breath, for the deadly
fumes Of the wretched little charcoal
stove were almost suffocating
His first move was to throw up the
window, thus allowing a current OF
pure air, at least as good as this Sec
ton of London could boast, to sweep
through the chamber. draught being
formed by the open door.
Next he picked up the pitcher of
water standing on the box and dash
ing it over the smoldering charcoal.
effectually wound up its miserable part
of the tragedy.
To the bed he fastened.
The women lay there wan and mo-
tionless-indeed, his first thought was
that he had come to the rescue too
late. and that death had already
claimed his victims.
Picking up the younger one in his
strong arms, this resolute man of ac-
ton bore her to the window, and laid
his burden down where the incoming
current of air would fall upon her
face.
Then he went back for her older
companion.
Her eyes were open, though she
seemed to be speechless-evidently she
had partially covered her head with
the bed clothes and thus in a measure
escaped the full result OF the smoth-
ering sensation.
Again he hurried to the side of the
form at the window, bending oh, so
eagerly over her, and scanning her
pinched face for signs Of returning
animation.
The flutter of an eyelid, a low sigh,
slight movement Of a hand-these
were enough to tell him the joyfA
tidings, and when he had assured him
self OF this fact, faint. but fervent
thank God" came from the bearded
lips OF the man.

Funny Thing. Tha. Escape.

w. j. Arkell complains that most
really funny things happen outside of
the comic papers and don't get round
ed up and brought in. One morning
he was at the telephone in his Office,
apparently having trouble of his own
trying to communicate with some
body:
What? Speak up! Can't understand
word! Say. give me that all over
again, pleased"
Then he turned to those about him
and said:
"Pll bet the wires are crossed again.
This telephone service is getting worse
and worse"
Another fruitless effort and then a
sudden light broke in upon him:

He Was Not o Bird.

No one who sees Justice Gray of the
United States supreme court, sitting
solemnly upon the bench. would be-
lieve he is susceptible to humor. In
fact, throughout his long service on
the bench only one instance is re-
corded where he deigned to exhibit a
ocular mood. 1t was the day when
Judson l.. Harmon, the attorney-gen-
eral. was making an argument before
the court He had occasion to display
a map showing the loyalty in which
the land in dispute was situated, and
held it up for the inspection OF the
court. II was a very small map and
difficult to see from the bench. Mr..
Harmon referred to it as "a birds-eye
view" Justice Gray squinted his
eyes in the effort to discern the map.
"Mr. Attorney he said in
despair, Il regret to tell you that am
not bird" And then the justice,
chuckling over the outburst of humor,
sank back in his seat.

The Marquis of Montezuma.
1t was lovely June. and London shell
tered at least million and half of
visitors within her gates. for the great
est Jubilee the world has ever known

ing of sixty years reign on the part
of the beloved sovereign, Victoria.
Among the millions who gazed upon
the marvellous spectacle. none occu-
pied more commanding position than
a gentleman of distinguished appear
ance. who seemed to control several of
the best windows in the second floor
of famous hotel in front of which
the procession moved.
His manner seemed cold and re-
pressed, as though his heart were not
in this scene. Indeed, at times he ap-
peared gloomy. as might man bowed
down with heavy cares.
Among those who speculated with
regard to the identity of this mysteri-
GUS guest of the fashionable hotel
were couple of gentlemen seated at
the window Of an Office further down
the street
One of these was no other than Cap
tain Maurice Livermore. the famous
traveller. His companion was a club
man. who pretended to do little busi-
ness for the looks of the thing, which
accounted for the office in the Strand.
Come, tell me who that fellow over
yonder may be? He seems to lord it
like prince Of the blood. From what
part of the world does he hail?" ask
ed the captain.

a comet, and in two days the talk of
the town was nothing but Don Juan

him, the Marquis of Montezuma.
His wealth is affirmed to be with

assertion which can be said of few
men; but Don Juan spends money like
water, and his extravagances have
cast poor Barney Barnato quite in the
shade. while even Dumas Monte
Cristo is hardly In the swim.
1T has even been given on strong
authority that he has a personal for
tune of over twenty million pounds
sterling"
The captain raised his hands to ex-
press surprise.
"Jove! Have you met the Marquis?"
"Well, have had that pleasure"
complacently.
"Then some day when the oppor-
tunity arises, make me acquainted with
this remarkable Spanish-American ma
bob, this modern Croesus. whose
touch is gold, like that of mythical
Midas"
Willingly. You like to study man,
and in him you will find puzzle
