FOOTBALL.
Harvard Has Easy Victory, %
to 0, With U. Of Maine.
Bowdoin Takes Game, IS to 5, from
New Hampshire State.
Bates Defeats the Boston COLLEGE,.
Eleven, Tito S. d.

Boston. oct. 12.-With team of sub.
stitutes. Harvard came within one
point of rolling up her largest score of
the season against an opponent whom
she expected to be teugh proposition.
In the game on Soldiers field. yesterday
afternoon. Harvard defeated the Uni
versity of Maine by a score of % to o.
When it is considered that, with the
exception of two men, Maine had her
entire championship eleven of last fall,
and that Harvard. on the other hand,
played without six of her regulars
the result was encouraging.
Both sides played Harvard football.
Head Coach Farley coached the OrOnO
boys las: season. and it was there that
he established his reputation as I,
coach. But Maine was too light to
stand up under Harvard'S great weight.
and as the game progressed it began
to tell on the visitors.
The biggest crowd of the year wit
messed the game. and the cheering was
more spirited than at any time before.
Maine had big aggregation and
cheered continuously.
Harvard had an entire substitute
back field. and the absence of Wright
and Knowlton as tackles and Marshall
as guard made the line weak. On the
defence however, the Crimson showed
some improvement. On the offence the
team was weak. except at the very end
of the game, when the second substi-
tute backs were put in and played with
Il spirit and dash that did the coaches
hearts good.
Maine did NOT h:iN weak team. D1lt
she was too light to stand up against
Harvard's big men. In the line, how
ever. Maine outplayed Harvard at sew
eral points. In the back field the
Orono team was weak, and failed to
make her distance many times. she
was forced to punt a great deal, but
had no one who could kick well. Dor
ticos failed to get the ball away for
more than 80 yards, While Stiilman
punted for Harvard at least so and
sometimes IS yards This told in the
first half. for the game resolved itself
into a punting contest. Maine played
her best in this half, and once held the
Crimson for downs. She tried several
tricks, but Harvards ends were too
quick and nipped them i'll the bud in
every case.
II was a game with few features.
Piper blocked kick in the second half
and ran 80 yards for a touchdown.
Later Ives ran Il kick back in beau
tiful style for 40 yards. Knowles also
got around the end in fine style for 80
wards. and put Cole out with ms
straight arm in u sensational manner.

Conditions ut Chicago.

While reports of strikes are re-
ceived from all parts Of the country
with the coming Of May 1, Chicago en-
joyed a period of industrial peace not
equaled in years. The reason Is not
that there is no activity in union labor
circles, neither is it that the workmen
have been making no demand for in
creased wages, for, as matter of fact,
thousands have secured an advance Of
wages, and there never was a time
when so much organization work was
being carried on.
The secret of the harmony is that
the perfect organization of working
men has forced the employers to take
a liberal view Of the question, and
that, instead of refusing to recognize
unions and treat with their represen-
tatives, they are all meeting the union
men in friendly conferences, and con-
Citation is accomplishing what strikes
may fail to bring about in the cities
where they are in force. The lockout
in the building trades two years ago
has done much to bring about this
condition of affairs in Chicago, as 1t
cleared the atmosphere and demon
strated that the unions could not be
crushed out.

rr,umph for Arbitration.

In the past week the bricklayers OF
Chicago secured an increase of five
cents an hour in wages, making the
minimum scale So cents an hour. AL
though the agreement with the EN-.
ployers was made for 80 cents, and
covered a period that does not expire
until April 1 next year, the demand
for men convinced the contractors
that the increased rate was reason
able. A clause in the agreement also
provided that the working rules and
agreement might be opened up at any
time by mutual consent. The increase
was secured by friendly Cancellation
between the accredited representa-
tives of contractors and men, and, ex-
cept in a few individual cases, there
was no cessation Of work. The coal
teamsters, van drivers, truck team
sters, stone derrickmen and other
trades have secured increased wages
through the same methods. and labor
men point to the fact as the strongest
argument in favor of the organization
of labor and treating with associations
of employers.

A Cure for Dropsy.

Ashley, North Dakota, June I'D.
H. Hanson of this place has found
cure for Dropsy.
For years Mr.. Hanson himself has
suffered with Rheumatism of the
Heart and Dropsy, and of late has
been so bad that he could not work.
He has tried many remedies, but
nothing he could get helped him in the
least, and he was growing worse and
worse.
Finally he began treatment OF
Dodd's Kidney Pills and to his great
delight he soon found that the Dropsi-
cal Swelling was gradually going down
and that the Rheumatism Of the Heart
was also disappearing. He says:
II have taken seven boxes of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and am feeling better
than l have for five years.
II am able to work again and II the
Dropsy or Heart Trouble ever comes
back I will use Dodd's Kidney Pills at
once"

Machinery and Wages.

The effect Of machinery on wages is
well exemplified by the following fig
ures: At one time in the United
States a roller in rail mill, rolling
iron or steel rails. received about Is
cents per ton, turning out from seven
ty-five to 100 tons per turn. To-day, in
some of the modern steel-rail mills,
less than 1 cent per ton is paid for do
ing the same work, and yet by the end
of the year the roller in the rail mill
can make as much money as he did un-
der the old method of working. At one
time As cents per ton was paid for
heating iron for making iron rails
To-day, through the use of the i'm
proved methods, very little more than
one-half cent per ton is paid for doing
the same work, and yet the wages re-
ceived are better than they were at
that earlier time.

HELLENEs SHOW AMERICAN SPIRIT
A Greek Newspaper Published In the

American Metropolis.
The man in the street does not hear
the newsboys cry, "Ere's yore Their
mopylae,'" and is ignorant Of the ex-
istence of a newspaper published in
New York in the type that has not
met his eye since he laid down his
Xenophon and Homer, and, in the rush
of business, proceeded to forget his
little Latin and less Greek" Yet
"Thermopylae," which justly claims
the title Of 1.-The only organ of HELEN
ism in the United" is thriving news
paper, and Its extra number just issued
in honor of the anniversary Of the
declaration of Greek independence is
an unusually interesting publication.
The national colors of blue and white
are shown in the ink used, and edi-
torials by the most prominent Greeks
and philhellenists of the country flank
present-day advertisements that look
queer in their old-new alphabetic
dress.
"Lordos Buron" does not seem SO
strange that it needs his picture to
identify him. But 1t takes more than
momentary glance to detect in Sam
usl G. Khaou, the personality OF
Samuel G.. Howe. The masquerading
of other well-known English and
American names and phrases is
equally fantastic. The Greek compos-
itor is at times troubled by the numer-
Gus English quotations, as when he
alters Byron's invocation to Greece, so
that it reads:
yet are thy skies as blue, thy
brags as Wild"
But on the whole "Thermopylae" is
highly creditable to its publishers and
to the Greek colony whose interests 1t
represents.-New York Mail and Ex-
press.

Proposition Hardly Feasible.

The proposition of labor men to
cease eating meat and thereby defeat
the packers trust in booming prices
has many drawbacks. One trouble
about lowering the price of meat by
refusing to eat 1t is that SO many are
required to act together to put it into
effective operation, and 1t is also point
ed out that the first to be punished by
it must be the retail dealers who are
not responsible for the increased
prices. A story is told to the effect
that all the people in the world once
agreed to meet and shout together at q
certain time, and that when the time
came nobody shouted at all, every one
listening to hear the yell forgetting tc
take part in 1t.

King Drought.
Ny road is fenced with the bleached white

And strewn with the blind white sand.
Beside me suffering dumb world means.

On the rim of the world the lightnings
play,
The heat-waves CULVER and dance,
And the breath Of the wind Is sword

And the sunbeams each lance.

hoofs tread,
I have whitened the sapless trees,
have driven the faint-heart rains ahead.
To hide in their soft green seas:
have bound the plains with an iron
band.
have stricken the slow streams dumb
To the charge of my vanguards who shall
stand?
Who stay when my cohorts come?
The dust storms follow and wrap me
round
The hot winds ride as guard;
Before me the fret of the swamps is
bound,
And the way Of the wild fowl barred.
drop the whips on the loose-fanked
steers
I burn their necks with the bow:
And the green hide rips and the iron
sears
Where the staggering lean beasts go.

To the CLEAN Of phantom lake;
I have laid him down. have taken ais
load.
And he sleeps till the dead men wake.
NY hurrying hoofs in the night go by.
And the great focks bleat their fear.
And follow the curve Of the creek burnt
dry,
And the plains scorched brown and sere.
The worn men start from their sleepbess

With faces haggard and drawn:
They cursed the red sun into the weN,
And they curse him out Of the dawn.

And the great West Land Is mine!

who employ housemaids are puzzled as

condition without doing their OWE

numerous advertisements appearing In

is offered. The cause of this state oil

THUNDER MOUNTAIN, IDAHO. 4
MINERAL TREASURE HOUSE.

Fortunes of Gold Are Being Feuad In
tho Center Of the state Of Idrho.
Thunder Mountain. the new Idaho
gold field, Is the most promising min
eral region in the United States. The
known until late In the fall of 1901.
after heavy SHOWS had closed all ave-
nues by which the region might be
reached except upon snowshoes. Not
withstanding this fact, Colonel w. H.
Dewey of Idaho, and others who have
had wide experience In mining, have
expended vast sums in the purchase OF
undeveloped claims. The surface indi-
cations are marvelously rich. These
gold bearing Lodges, from 100 to 300
feet, will run through mountain par
allel to each other. In the Dewey
mine, this vast deposit has values rum
ming from 81 to $4,000 per ton, and the
plates of the 10-stamp mill which runs
on the ore have to be cleaned OF their
accretions Of gold every six hours.
In few weeks two miners last
spring cleaned up $500 In placer gold,
using a small cotton hose to wash
the gravel, the water coming from .
small reservoir on the mountain side.
The mineral zone covers a large sec
ton Of hitherto UNEMPLOYED country,
and is about ITS miles from railroad.
There are five routes leading to the
Thunder Mountain country, viz: via
Ketchum, Mackay. Boise and Weiser.
Idaho. and Bedrock, Montana, all on
the Oregon Short Line railway. A
great rush to this mecca for miners is
predicted, and ION to Thunder Noun
tain" will be as familiar as the old
watchword, pixies Peak or Bust" as
coon as the SHOWS disappear so that
the camp may be reached with sup
plies, which will probably be between
May 15 and June l. A scarcity Of pro-
visions at present keeps miners away,
as flour at $50 per sack is considered
somewhat Of luxury even in the gol-
den land.
Surrounding Thunder Mountain is q
large section of country adapted to
agriculture and stock-raising.
D. E. Burley, general passenger
agent of the Oregon Short Line rail-
road, at Salt Lake City, sent an expert
to report upon that country. and will
cheerfully give any information re-
quired as to the routes and general
conditions in and around the great
mining camp.

Agreement Easily Reached.

After a conference that lasted fol
two days the committee of the Anal
gamated Association of Iron and Stee
Workers and the officials of the Amer
lean Tin Plate Company reached ar
agreement. The mills at Pittsburg
Pa, will now be in operation uninter
ruptedly during the summer months
when the scale of wages is formulated
This, it is declared, means practically
a continuous scale, preventing the
mills of the American Tin Plate Com
pany from closing and renders a strike
impossible.

The committee on federal relations
of the Massachusetts legislature has
reported favorably to the House on the
resolution in favor of the amendment
to the United States constitution which
permits Congress to regulate the hours
of labor in the several states. The
resolution has been presented to pre-
vious legislatures. This year at the
committee hearing 1t was supported by
the counsel of the Arkwright Club,
which is the organization of the fac
tory owners of the state, and has u.s.
ually opposed any legislation desired
by the employees. Many cotton manu-
facturers desire a law which would
equalize the hours OF labor in New
England and the southern states.

Complete Victory for Denver Men.
The master painters of Denver,
Colo, have signed an agreement with
the Painters and Decorators Union,
which ends the strike that has been on
in that trade for three weeks. The
master painters have conceded the
wages and hours demanded by the I'M
ions, and the result is a complete vic.
tory for the strikers. The only con-
cession made to the master painters Is
that no journeyman painter will be al
lowed to contract, and the best ele-
ment in the painters union believes
that this rule will prove benefit to
the union as well as to the master
painters. The painters all returned to
work the first of the week and with a
new scale of wages which is an in.
crease of so cents a day over the old
scale.
