UNION HOST MARCHES.
Chica.o's Labor Day Parade the Big
gest en- Record.


Organized labor of Chicago broke the
record for industrial parades i'll this
country, if not in the world, Monday
For four hours two great columns, each
ten abreast, marched down Michigan ave-
nue. From West Jackson boulevard,
where the four divisions composing the
we.tcrn column formed, to Harrison
street and Michigan avenue, where it
Joined the South Side column, which had
been organized at Twenty-second street
the two columns marched through living
walls. Had these spectators, many OF
them toilers themselves and members OF
unions, entered the parade with their or
CARNATIONS, leaders of the Labor Day
committee declare that instead of having
100. 900 men in line the procession would
have contained the 100000 promised, and
the streets would have been filled with Il
great industrial army that would have
been marching when night fell.
AS it was, there We're thousands more
persons in line than were ever seen III Il
labr parade before. There were more
unions marching and more trades rep
resented showing to what extent the
work of organization had been carried in
this city. For months labor leaders have
been declaring Chicago to be the best
organized city in the world, and they
believe the showing made more than JUS

L will tell you, Claire. Lucian wor-
ships me and is passionately attached to
his child; l promise you that he is en-,
tirely reconciled to his marriage with
you, and regards it seriously, as he does
all other obligations in life"
"Yes," came the bitter response, SO

will tell him where to find you," said
the lady, rising with the relieved air
of one who has executed a painful duty.

and say good morning to your mother"
Claire submitted to the caress, and
when left alone sat for some minutes
among the swaying vines. At last the
burning words rose to her lips:
Heaven help me, how l loved him!
Fool that was to dream that l should
be loved in return! Why, they have been
specializing upon my approaching death |;
and if he leads me to the altar to-mor-
row, he counts upon my lying dead be-

return to the misery of poverty
Her last words escaped her lips In a
sigh of unutterable anguish, while to her
unheeding ears came the beat Of the
horses hoofs that bore her expectant
bridegroom!
Upon the spur of the moment she de-
termined to go at once to her father,
inform him that she retracted her prom
Use, and break off the unhallowed match
then and there, despite the consequences.
She sprang to her feet full of her resolve,
but ere she could take a step the sound
of voices arrested her. Her wonan's
curiosity asserted itself; she parted the
veil Of vines with trembling hands and
gazed out across the sunlit lawn.
There she saw Lucian. the man she
loved with the one absorbing passion Of
her life, standing in all his manly beau
~, in conversation with DR.. Gresham,
who was about to take his leave. The
two men were shaking hands and ex-
changing smiling words Of congratula'
ton.
The girls heart rose in her breast as
she listened, and she chung family to the
vines for support until their thorns en-
tered her delicate flesh. The physical
pain and the mental anguish reused her
once again to the exigency of the mo-
ment, and with precipitate steps she
turned and fed in at the open door.

TURKEY EXPECTS WAR SOON.
Clash with Bulgaria Seems Certain
Before September Ends.

Before Septe IN Der EnOS.
The latest orders from the Turkish
government are regarded as a sure indi-
cation that the Porte en,ertains serious
apprehensions of war Sixteen battalion1
of mustahfuz, or second reserves, have
been called to arms in the Salonica,
Uskub and Monastir districts and the ar
tillery and cavalry reserves of the
Adrianople and Smyrna divisions have
also been modified.
The commander of the third army
: corps has been ordered to strictly watch
the Servian frontier, where, it is thought,
revolutionary bands will probably cross.
War between Turkey and Bulgaria is
now regarded as inevitable. 1t is even
believed that the outbreak of hostilities
will occur before the end of September,
when the re-enforcements from Asia will
have been concentrated in Macedonia and
in the viiayet of Adrianople. 1t is not
thought that there will be any formal
declaration of war, in view of Bulgaria.
vassal status, but that some frontier IN
cident will preciptate hostllities.
The Bulgarians and Macedonians re-
siding in Constantinople are in terror
of massacre. A large number of them
were arrested a few days ago as pre-
tentative measure" and they have not
yet been released The fear of a massa-
ere is probably exaggerated, although in
view Of the present excited state of Mus
sulman feeling an insignificant incident
might perhaps lead to a massacre.
The terrible accounts received regard
ing the conduct of the Turkish troops
have not surprised European circles, but
many who have hitherto been optimistic
in their views now accept, the prevailing
catastrophe.
4 consular dispatch from Salyonica

ton the instruction in the district of

lar troops in the work of repression,

itants, but all the Christians of what
ever nationality.

THE WORLDS "BREAD BASKET"
v,rsifica Farming Is Developing
the Northwest.

Minnesota, North Dakota and South
Dakota will yield about 2OOOOO,OOO
bushels of wheat this year, which, at
present prices will bring a very rcslec-
table income for the farmers of the three
States Add to this a barley crop OF
G5, OO0,0 900 bushels, flax crop of 35,0OO,-
900 bushels and S0,000,000 bushels of
oats, and you will have the reason why
the three States named have been called
'the bread basket of the world
The Dakotas and Minnesota are begin
ming to adopt diversified farming and
are no longer given up entirely to the
raising of grain. 1t is only a question Of
a few years when cattle, hogs and corn
will be an important industry. This con-
dition has been brought about by the inn
migration of the last few years. For eX-
ample, take the territorial line between
the Red river and Minot on the west, a
distance of 200 miles; from the line OF
the Great Northern Railroad to the boun-
Diary will average about sixty-fve miles.
More than 100000 acres of land with
in that section has been recently home
steaded by new settlers from Wiscon-
sin, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana Michigan and
northern Missouri, who have brought
ing. They have all been trained to the
habits and customs and the diversified
farming of the Middle States. They are
accustomed to having cattle, sheep, hogs
and poultry on their farms, and believe
that the greatest profit is derived from
feeding grain to their stock. Whenever
you see this you find prosperous com
munity.
This tide of immigration has swept on
into Montana, Washington and Oregon
until at the present time most of the
homestead lands susceptible of cultiva-
ton from natural rainfall have been tax
ell mp, and much of the other farming
lands have changed hands The new
Corners, having sold their homes and
farms in the older States at an advanc-
ed figure, are willing to buy out the old
settlers, who are willing to sell for prices
that a few years ago were thought i'm
possible. This immigration has given
great impetus to Spokane and the coast
cities, which is indicated by the great
increase in population and in the building
of houses and business blocks.
