labor matters and the capitalists vie with
each other in treating their hands well.
Many of the factories have free baths for
their employees such as I saw in the Loewe
works. Many have cheap eating rooms. the
Union Gesellschaft, for instance serving a
dinner Of soup, bread and meat for about
cents TO such as wish It.
In my walk through this electrical works
/ found many women employed at all sorts
OF things The delicate labor of winding
the armatures for electrical motors is done
by them and they are used in other skilled
branches OF labor. The women are we'll
dressed and good looking Many are girls
Of IS or 20, and all seem very intelligent.
They are paid only about half as much
wages as the men and they do the work
equally well, II not better.
They tell me that there is little chance
for our big electrical companies in Ger
many. / had a chat with the director Of
one of the leading electrical establishments
the other night. The man asserted that the
Westinghouse had lost money last year
and that they had little hope of doing
much in competition with the German com
binations.
Germany is the most advanced OF all Eu-
ropean countries along electrical lines. It's
chief cities are already equipped with cleo
trio lights and electric cars. It's factories
arc up to date and they have the latest in
ventions They have abundant capital and
connections which enable them to practi-
cally control the trade.
There are now four groups of electrical
manufacturers here. and their capital is
about half billion marks, or $125 600, 900.
Each Of these groups is backed by banking
and business interests which are ready to
push 1t. One, for instance, has the Dres-
dener bank and the Bleichroders, who aid
in placing the stock of the company among
their clients, who give II financial support
and who are ready to organize companies
which may support it without being directly
connected with it 30 ,-- -- o
Suppose, for instance, the company as
certains that the horse car lines OF -Buenos.
Ayres can be prohtably changed to cleo
trical lines. The financial company organ
lied by the bankers will buy the lines and
build them and the bankers will place the
stock They will also see that the cleo
trical company has the contracts for fur
nshing the supplies, so that one company
works into the hands of the other. and they
all work for the good of the various insti-
tutiOns and men connected with them.
This is the case with every electrical COM
pany here-the Siemens & Halskey, the
General Electric company and the Shuck-
erts, as we'll as the Union. So far all the
companies have been making money.

Frequent visitors to the Banks are the
beautiful squids-baby devil hsh-which
are highly priced for bait. They often APP

Reflections of a Bachelor

Conscience is the reflector of the liver.
Once there was a pretty woman who did
not know It, but she was in a picture book.
1t makes a man mad to hear the disagree
able things that are said about his friends;
II makes a woman mad not to.
It's funny, but when a woman loves a
man she wants him not only to tell her that
he loves her. but that he knows by his
great love that she loves him.
A woman would like to have a man kiss
her more IL he didn't smoke, but IL he didn't
smoke she would be afraid 1t was because
some other woman objected to it.-New
York Press.

canal is built with solid walls OF concrete,
with substantial lead gates and screen.
Thus the water is led along the high
ground. Thence II is carried through a
fume eight feet wide and seven feet deep,
constructed OF substantial timber and

snake, now burrowing its way through
promontories Of solid rock or stretching on
stills across deep ravlnes. Along such
sluiceway young river is carried through
regions rough that at hrst they seemed
inaccessible to the engineers themselves.
But II arrives safely at last at the river

which will all pass through the four steel
tubes already described tapering from their
diameter OF four feet to a mere fve-inch

There are great many people in Ma

Dixon's Cove is, as we are often asked
the question after telling them where
we live. Well, my friends, Dixon's
Cove is a gulf lying between two peaks
of old Cumberland Mountain, north
west of Sequachee City, Tenn, and is
inhabited by four or i've families, wild
cats, foxes, coons, and few grey squir-
rels. No dogs. There is only one dog
here, and he is owned by man whose
mealtub is backed by puncheon, and
he keeps the dog to bark at the owls
and keep them away from his henroost.
Dixon's Cove is very productive Of
anything adapted to its soil, and is ca
pable of producing with good cultiva-
tion and good seasons at least 20 bush
els of ticks per acre, with rattlesnakes
in sufficient quantity to face the same.
The mountain sides are very steep, so
much so that the smoke from Crutcb-
fields shingle factory can't climb it on
ly in some places.

SENSATIONAL ARRESTS.

c. S. Stevans and Robert Lee were ar
rested here Saturday night about 1890
by Sheriff Mccullough and deputies for
pistol carrying. They made bond to
appeal before Squire Johnson at JAS
per Monday morning at 10 o'clock, who
bound them over to Circuit Court under
s25O.OO bond each. Their arrest caused
a sensation in the town, and there Is
lots OF discussion. Aside from the
question whether the young men are
guilty or not, the law-abiding, self-re-
specting citizens of the town are heart
lily sick OF the promiscuous shooting
which has been going on, and are glad
to see that Sheriff Mccullough is not to
be deferred from doing his duty.

handled the case with his customary
ability, while the defense, was repre-
sented in good style by Capt. Donald
