How to Feed Herself When Run

From the New York World.


From the New York World
The PostofIice Department expects
within a few days to arrange for a
complete system of pneumatic tubes
between the general postoffice and all
the sub-stations on Manhattan Island.
This will do away almost entirely with

yesterday by Postmaster Van Colt to
renew the old tubular service, which,
however, Is limited to the transmits

A W0RKINGMEN'S PARTY.
Political and Economical Movement
Set on Foot in Chicago.

Chicago, Sept. ia movement for
enlisting the hosts of workingmen
throughout the United States into a
semi political organization has been
launched in this city, says the Post
A platform said to embrace the econ
omical and political ideas of labor
leaders and covering the whole labor
situation has been prepared and will
be presented first for approval next
week before the Chicago Federation of
Labor
The platform demands the abolition
of the political machine, the establish
ment of government primaries, where
votes may be cast for nominees as citi-
zens and not as members of d machine,
and the initiative and referendum. It
favors the right Of recalling represent
tatives who are out of touch with
voters. Relief from the trusts is
suggested in the plan for the passage
of an amendment to the practice laws
of every state and the federal gov
eminent, under which litigants may
bring up in any suit in which a cor
poration is the plaintiff or defendant,
the question of it's right to it's fran
chise, whether it has usurped power
not given it under statute. and wheth-
er it has forfeited its powers.
The eight-hour day, sanitary condi-
tons, living wages, the repeal of the
laws limiting the liabilities in personal
injury suits, the supplying of free text
books to all children in the lower
grades of public schools and the
abolition of convict labor in com9eti-
ton with freemen are demanded
Limitation on the injunction powers
of judges is asked, and the popular
election of federal judges and senators
is suggested.
In all civil trials majority verdicts
are desired. The plan favors the gov
eminent instead of banks issuing all
kinds of money, and it is suggested
that private individuals be driven
from the banking business.
Laws are demanded restricting the
issue of capital stock, bonds and secur-
tiles to any greater extent than the
actual property owned by corporations.
Public ownership of public utilities is
desired and state insurance and pro-
visions for old age are approved. Child
labor is decried and educational aids
and trade unionism to keep up wages
are approved.

NOT A BURGLAR, hut AN ACTOR.
Frederick Has "a Midnight Struggle
with Mistaken Policeman.

From the New York Press.
Small articles have been stolen from
the stage dressing rooms in the Ca
sine recently. They were mot of great
intrinsic value, but endeared to their
owners by close association" etc. Sill
ver-clasped garters, for instance, were
mourned by one young woman.
On last Saturday night, Foley, the
stage doorkeeper, asked Patrolman
Kennedy, who is stationed at the thea
ter. to help him guard the building
in the hope of catching the thief. The
show ended. the players and stage
hands hurried away, and Kennedy
took up his stand in the shadow across
Thirty-nint street. At 1880 O'Clock
Foley went over and said I'm going
to make the rounds of the house. II
any thief's hidden there I'll drive him
out to you
Kennedy waited, expectantly. Five
minutes passed; then from the stage
door there came mana man Of
great hight and breadth. This man
had a bundle under his arm.
1.-The thief" thought Kennedy. He
stole across the street, tiptoed up be-
hind the big man, leaped upon him,
and bore him to the sidewalk. The
big man fought; he swore, too. He was
getting the better of Kennedy when
Foley ran out OF the theater. With his
help the big man was pinioned to the
sidewalk. Then, for the first time,
Foley saw the prisoners face.
MIR. Frederick" he gasped.
Eyes, it's Frederick. you pair of
chumps. What" with other words)
"are you trying to do with me?"
Its the Emperor Hang Chow" said
the confused doorkeeper to the police
man.
"Ain't he a burglar?"
mo, he's an actor"
Frederick had stayed in the theater
after the performance to pack up his
costume 80 that he might be photo
graphed yesterday. The bundle he car
ried contained his imperial robes.

THE BRITISH TOBACCO FIGHT.
Cat Throat Competition Denounced
by Sir John Archibald Wilcox.

London, Sept. 15.-Sir John Archi-
bald Wilcox, a Conservative member
of the House of Commons, presiding
to-day at the annual meeting of Cope
Brothers, tobacco manufacturers, de-
clared that competition in the tobacco
business had passed all bounds of fair
competition and had become merely a
deliberate and organized effort on the
part of British capitalists to destroy a
British industry and create a selfish
monopoly. Their motive, said Sir John
was sheer cupidity, as, when they OBJ
tanned dominant power, they reck-
oned upon being able to recoup their
early losses by squeezing profits from
the consumer.
Referring to American competition.
the speaker said Americans were not
likely to obtain control of the British
tobacco trade.

With all due respect to those gentle
men Of other counties who are candi-
dates for the position of speaker. The
Republican IS earnestly of the opinion
that Hon. J. S. Atherly of Albany coun-
~ is the most logical candidate for the
place. 1t has been urged that no
speaker has been reelected. Possibly
this is for the very good aso that
none has been returned by any county
o. the state save and except Mr.. Ath-
erly. Dur people have believed it the
part Of wisdom to retain Mr.. Atherly
IN the legislature for the excellent rea-
son that he has shown competency in
conducting affairs in that body. Good
work is just as important in the legis-
lature as elsewhere, and experience
counts for a great deal. Ordinarily it
taxes a member almost the length of
one session to become familiar with
parliamentary practice. the rules of the
pody, etc. Again. a man familiar with
matters in the various departments at
the state capital can always accomplish
more for his constituents than a new
man.

served one term as speaker is the
strongest argument in favor of again

Campaign lies are not always pro-
ductive of results for the party promul-
eating them. but too often they accom-
plish the anticipated result. The late
campaign bore the usual crop of pre-
varications, and in at least one in
stance the result was astounding eve
to the beneticiaries. Over in Fremont
county there is a community of cattle
growers in what is called the New
Fork precinct. Range wars have been
engaged in there between the cattle
the democratic managers circulated
the story that Governor Richards had
made the statement that it was his
purpose to force sheep into that sec
ton even if the tloCkmasterS had to
be guarded by the entire state militia.
1t worked like magic and of a total
vote of Al in a republican precinct,
Governor Richards received but I.
The average majority for the republi-
can candidates other than governor
was about 20. The lie was sprung so
late that it could not be refuted and
the friends of the governor were for
the moment thrown off their guard.
This same kind of campaign work was
OF some advantage to the democrats
in the northern part of Albany county.
and in various other sections of the
state where small cattle men and
sheep men have conflicting interests.
