Have You a COzy :?
FREE LABOR MEN MEET.
Tenth Annual Conference Has Opened
 In Leeds, England.

Leeds England, October 2O.-The tenth annual congress of the Free Labor as- sociation opened here today. The dele gates represented 100000 workmen. Presi- dent John Chandler made virulent at lack on trades unlonism. He claimed that the growth of industrial freedom greatly tended towards the dimlnution of strikes and declared that trades union excessive violations of personal freedom were a disgrace to labor in this country. Nothing could more forcibly illustrate the intolerance which perverted trades un- lonism than the statement said to have been made to the Rev. Charles Edwards, a Pennsylvania clergyman, some time ago by a non-unionist that striking coal miners had threatened to cut off tho ears of every man returning to work. If British trades unionists do not sympath- lze with these abominable atrocities" the speaker asked, Why do they vote e1000 sterling in aid of the strikers of America who made such an infamous threat?'

General DeWet Does Not Take Time
 to Dress Himself.

Berlin, October 20-General DeWet spoke in his night shirt at o'clock Sun day morning at the Hanover station to a thousand persons who almost stormed the train. The general leaned out of a window as he addressed the assemblage, recounting the warmth of the Boers re- ception in Berlin and the Hberality of the Germans.
 The generals collected total of ST. 800 here. They undertook to give auto- graphic receipts to every contributor of S1 25 and had to spend several hours daily signing receipts. DeWet said that if the thing kept up his right arm would be in a sling as the result of writer's paralysis. Envelopes containing money were thrown into the Boers' carriages when they were out driving.

HE numerous admirers or ihdt
 charming woman. Mrs. Thomas
 M. Owens. will be interested in the announcement of her having won the third prize offered in a short story con test. and which was inaugurated by the Sunny South last May
 The names of the fortunate contestants appeared in Sundays issue of that maga- zine. "sehoys Is the fascinating title se- leeted by Mrs. Owen for her story.
 The first prize in the contest was awarded Mir. W. N. Harben, the we'll known southern writer.
 It is interesting to note that Mrs owens story ranks third in Q contest en- tered by men and women of long es- tablshed reputation as writers of fiction. and when it is seen that 1t ranks higher than the story by Walter Howard which receives fourth prize, 1t Is clearly evil dent that the field of fiction has been en- tered by a writer who will doubtless win many laurels should she be ambitious m this direction.
 The Sunny South calls attention to the interesting fact that Q majority of the piJ1t HiIhtIS dIt NbIntIi, anu III IcAttAAHS to the contest makes a statement that should be constantly reiterated
 The promoters of the paper feel that there is ample literary ability in the south, and that all that Is required for it's development Is the constant and dlscrim- mating encouragement of a magazine printed in the south. with southern ideals and southern purposes its principal, vital elements. A short story contest inangu- rated year ago had been entirely grati- flying in results. over 400 manuscripts hav- ing been received from every portion of the country. The prizes offered aggre- gated s1oo, and not only did the issue of the contest eminently encourage southern writers, but it was the means of giving the readers of the Sunny South some of the best fiction In the history of na- tional periodicals.
