to his Long Island club for two days
of duck shooting was really the only
luxury he allowed himself; and his
economies in other directions desery'

told his wife nice little story about
boots and had let him have pair
"for practically nothing" The boots
were not worth much anyhow, he
carelessly explained, and congratulate.

When Banks came back from his
next shooting trip he was tired and
sleepy, and threw his new boots, all
muddy as they were, into closet, to
be cleaned when he should have more
energy.
"And what do you think happened
to those toot5" he said two days
later to q group of sympatheti.

ers say there is not the slightest
change in their sentiment. and that
they feel substantially entrenched
now that they are affiliated with the
older strikers in the Locomotive Build
ers' Trades council. Said one wood
worker:
Though our numbers are not so
very great, we feel that our action in
striking had a peculiar significance far
beyond that which the action of a body
of fifty or seventy-five men would
usually carry. You see. President
Burt had informed the eastern mag
mates of the Union Pacific railway dur
ing the conference at New York city
that most of the men here wanted
piecework. Then he came home and
tried to introduce it among the wood
workers and pipemen, with the result
that everyone quit work. That would
seem to tell its own story. and a strong
