glad to get over without giving any
money, but have heard since that we
should have been paid for our work among
the coal, and that the. young man who had
sent us got the money for it, We were
all landed on an island and the bosses
there said that Francisco and 7 must go
back because we had not enough money,
but a man named Bartolo came up and
told them that we were brothers and he
was our uncle and would take care of us.
He brought two other men who swOre that
they knew us in Italy and that Bartolo
was our uncle. I had never seen any Of
them before, but even then Bartolo might
be my uncle. SO did not say anything.
The bosses of the island let us go with
Bartolo after he had made the oath.
'sWe came to Brooklyn to a wooden
house in Adams street that was full OF
Italians from Naples. Bartolo had a room
on the third floor, and there were fifteen
men in the room, all boarding with Bar
tolo. The next morning, early, Bartolo
told us to go out and pick rags and get
bottles He gave us bags and hooks and
showed us the ash barrels. On the streets
where the fine houses are the people are
very careless and put out good things,
like mattresses and umbrellas, clothes,
hats and boots. We brought all these
to Bartolo and he made them new again
and sold them on the sidewalk.
Most Of the men in our room worked
at digging the sewer. Bartolo got them
the work and they paid him about onc-
quarter of their wages. Then he charged
them orsboard and he bought the clothes
for them, too. So they got little money
after ALL The men that were living with
him had just come to the country and
could not speak English. They had all
been sent by, the young man we met in
italy. Barto1o told us all that we must
work for him and that if we did not the
police would come and put us in prison.
He gave us very little money, and our
clothes were some of those that were
found on the street. Still we had enough
Ito eat and we had meat quite often,
which we never had in Italy.

but some of our countrynen who had been

for a dollar and a half a. day, which, when
you make it lire is very much. So we

us and made a great noise. but the boss
said that if he did not go away soon the

a NEGATIVE MAN is NAUGHT.

A vacillating, undecided, negative man can
never amount to any thing. no matter What his
environment or advantages may be. 1t would
be impossible. He constantly snbordinates his.
opinions and even his plans to what others say
and think. There Is certainty as to his action,
huences. He never relies upon himself or the
inward authority that speaks to him He is the
fore him. He is remagnetized every time he
comes in contact with new personality; Blown
opposite as the poles. like leaf whirled by
the autumn wind no one, not even himself,
knows where he will alight.
The man who lives to any purpose or accom-
plfshes anything of good in the world has an
abiding faith in himself. in his forcefulness and
of his own affairs, and In his power to accom-
p1ish whatever he puts himself to do.
