The West Coast Trade notes that a
mercantile agency has collected data
showing that the losses accruing from
strikes in the United States the present
year amount to S600,oOO,0O0. "The
enormity OF the figures is such as to de-
mand pause for consideration oe caus-
es leading up to this steadily increas-
Ing drain upon our industrial system
and wage earning population. There
ARE no losses presenting less compensa-
ton and engendering more suffering
than those arising from differences be-
tween capital and labor, and no two
classes whose prosperity and continued
advancement are so interdependeDt.
1t is not improbable that the figures
are magnified to a degree, yet it is al
most impossible to calculate the full ex-
tent of damage direct aud indirect from
strikes and lockouts."

THE AGILE OSPREY.
Hungry Bird and a Tragedy of n
Trout stream.

! Hungry Bird and Tragedy of n
Trout Stream.
A big brown and white bird came
.ailing up the trout stream, his long
wings stretched far out to right and
eft. He flew slowly, for he w3s look
Eng for something sOmething that he
wanted very much. He was doing his
family marketing. Up in the top of a
big pine tree q mile away his wife was
.itting ON nest full of eggs, and it
was both his duty and his pleasure to
find supper for her. Suddenly he
stopped short. EIe had caught sight of
the thing for which he was searching
a dusky, shadowy shape, with an out
line like that Of a submarine torpedo
boat. lying moveless in the clear water.
For Just an instant he seemed to hang
poised in the air, but it was only long
enough to change the direction of his
motion; then down he went with a
rush and a swoop.
The brook trout saw him coming and
tried to dart away, but it was too late.
With mighty splash the osprey
struck the stream and went clear I'M
der and out Of sight, while the water
boiled and surged over him. He could
not see for the commotion about him,
but his aim had been true, and his out
stretched feet touched slippery,
Shiny, wriggling body that was just
beginning to gather Roadway.
Quicker than a wink his toes closed
about it and his sharp talons sank
deep into the trouts flesh. Then up he
came, rising out of the stream like
some tabled monster of old and shak-
ing the water from his feathers in a
shower of flying drops. Every thread
of muscle in his wings and breast was
working with all its might to lift that
heavy trout Up went the birds great
pinions till they were straight above
him; then down they came, lashing the
air like whips. Up again and down, up
and down, up and down, harder and
faster and fiercer, and little by little
he and his victim rose from the stream
till at last they were clear of the tree
tops, then straight away to the nest
in the old pine, where the wife was
waiting to make them both welcOme.-
