In loving but sad remembrance of my
dear mother, Catharine A. DuFief, who de.
parted this life one year ago to-day, April
3rd, 1902.
One mournful year has vanished,
I.think as tear drops start,
But the memory of my mother
Is still fresh within my heart.
Oh but then my life has saddened,
Ever since my hopes seem vain,
But her voice seems sweetly saying,
Courage, dear, we shall meet again.
Rest on, loved one, thy labor is DER,
Your willing hands will toll no more,
A faithful mother, both true and kind,
A truer mother you could not find.
Strew the sweet flowers around the still
form,
Kiss the pale lips that loves kiss can never
warm,
Tears fall like rain on her beautiful head,
Fond hearts are weeping for our mother
is dead.
Her Loving Daughter, Maggie.

DECISION OF IMPORTANCE.
Vinita, 1T, Dec a8-A decision
Of some Importance has been rend-
cred in Judge ] A. ellis court at
sallisaw. Joseph Weaver and w. ID.
Hogen were arrested on a charge
Of larceny, it being alleged that
they had taken leases on land Of
Cherokee citizens and the original
owners had traded the land TO third
parties, who desired possession.
The leases antedated the Cherok &c
treaty and had not expired. Upon
being notified that the new owners
desired tthe occupants to vacate
the defendants having made their
improvements according to contract
it is alleged, carried them away
with them when they removed from
the premises. The owners objected
and applied for a restraining order.
This was granted and dissolved on
a hearing. Hogen and Weaver were
then arrested for larceny.
The Court held that parties leasing
land had right to remove their
improvements, if they were not
paid for them, provided they re-
moved them before the expiration
of the. lease.

Perhaps the most dramatic hit of

our Children are old men and wo-
men, is Sun and Fowlers beautiful
production Of Circumstantial Evi-
dence, by James NJ. Martin. For
the past ten years Mr.. Martin has
been making his home in Chicago.
One morning he got up and found
the papers full Of a shocking murder
case. II appears one Strong had, in
a state Of beastly intoxication, whit
tied his wife to death with A razor
Srtong was dressed in light suit
of clothes. He left a saloon on W.
Madison street a few moments be-
fore II:4o p. m, walked six blocks
and was found bending over the
dead body Of his wife at I1:4sp. M.
the police having been attracted to
the place by his cries. The razor
with which the crime was committed
was never found. How he could sue
cessfully cut his wife's throat with
out as much as getting a drop Of
blood on his hands, much less on
his clothing, some people could new
.er guess, although these facts wer e
fully brought out the three trials.
At the third trial he begged theaU-
thorites to have him hypnotized, ii
being the general belief that while
in a soporifc state the subject will
speak the exact truth, but even this
was denied the poor man and he
was hanged according to the requir-
ments of the law few weeks after.
1t has since transpired beyond a
shadow of doubt the man was in
nocent and the real cul prit escaped.
The trial. conviction and judicial
murder of this man so worked up
on the feelings of Mr., Martin that
he determined to write a drama
and call it Circumstantial Evidence
The piece was purchased from Mr..
Martin after ITS completion BY Gus

year ago and put upon the road

derground coal miners get about s a week and iron miners a little less. The Government figures state that ''the wages in the petroleum fields are com paratively high. the average for all work CTS being less than SIP monthly, while farm hands taking the statistics for the last fifteen years have received on the average 19 c0nts a day for planting in seed time and 31 cents at harvest, with correspondingly low wages when work was not plentiful.
 Understand these are the wages paid to white men, women and children and to people who have a natural intelligence as great as our own and who, when ed ucated, are the full equals of any white people all the world over
 No Eight-Hour Day.
 There Is no eight hour day in Russia. On the Government work the laws pro vide that the day must not extend be- yond eleven and half hours not count ing the recesses. and on Saturdays and days before holidays not more than ten hours. Daytime is reckoned here as from a. m. to p. m. and those who work at night must be kept working more than ten hours out of the twenty-four.

READY FOR NEW LAW.
Railroad Safety Appliance Act of
 Congress.


 What is known as the Safety Appliance Act of Congress goes into effect on the first of the coming month, says The Nash vile Banner. This is the law that re- auires the railroads of the country to equip all of its rolling stock with air brakes, automatic couplers. snatch-bars and other safety devices.
 xts has been a matter of nearly twenty Vearu to get the railroads of the country 10 the point where they will nearly all be .awhen the first of next month comes. The aw requiring safety appliances was ught bitterly in Congress after Con- ess, but was finally passed three years
 0 and the naming of a date on which
 was to become effective left with the
 jerstate Commerce Commission. It was bvided, however, that there were to be
 extensions beyond Septembr l, 1903, Hess 1t were shown that 1t was a physi- ppossibility for the roads to comply dozen roads to apply for a further ex- tension, but not more than that.
 The law requires that all draw-bars shall be 34 1-2 inches above the rails, not to vary from that more than three inches. All roads in the country have complied with that. The next requirement is that not less than 50 per cent of the cars in any train. freight or passenger. must have its brakes controlled with air by the en- gineer of the train. Automatic couplers must be on all cars, and there must be a q ASnafch-bar so that cars can be uncoupled < without going in between them.
 The Louisville and Nashville has about sE per cent of it's freight cars equipped with air brakes, much more than 2 suffi- ei&nt number to comply with the law.

Petersburg has become a manufactur- ing city, and it has iron works of all kinds. Warsaw has now about three- quarters of a million people. who are largely engaged in textile industries, and LodZ. a great cotton town of western Russit. is now growing faster than any town in the United States. It was a vil- lage only few years ago. It had about hundred thousand population in 1S90 and now it has more than three times that many. It makes goods for ship ment to all parts of Russia and to Siberia, China, Turkestan and Persia.
 Russia has now great linen and woolen mills. It has in its textile factories alto gether more than six million spindles and something like one hundred and fifty thousand looms employing more than three hundred thousand hands. There are sixty thousand engaged in dyeing bleaching and printing and almost three quarters of a million employed on textiles alone
 There are half a million Russians en- ployed in mining and smelting and fully that number in making food stuffs. There are three hundred thousand men in the iron works and thousands at work in the l oil fields.

Foreign Factories h Ru--,,.

Within the past few years the English, French, Germans and Americans have been establishing factories in Russia to avoid the tariff and to take advantage of Russian cheap labor. The country is open to foreign capital, and many of the foreign establishments are making money. I have spoken of the Westinghouse air brakes works and those of the New York Air Brakes Company. The Nesting house Company has electrical works in south Russia and others of our manu- lecturers will likely establish plants on account of the present discrimination against the United States, which can be avoided by making the goods here. am told that American capital will be well comed and that 1t will have every ad- vantage possessed by the natives.
 Working for Two Cents ain Hour.
 The wages in the Russian factories are cents an hour and upwards. There are thousands who work for a cent an hour and tens of thousands who do not receive 30 cents a. day for ten, eleven and more hours work. have before me some
 figures given by the order of Mir. Witte the Russian Minister of Finance. They state that in the two great industrial provinces of Vladimir and Moscow the men on the average earn from $7.50 to B a month. This would be g a week or B cents day. Women get $5.25 month or about 1.3o per week and boys of six teen A month or less than 15 cents a day. while children are paid as low as g

to hospitals and give medical assistance for their workmen. There are labor pen- sions and labor insurances both for death and accidents. There are also mutual labor insurance companies for permanent and temporary disablements and one or two old-age insurance companies.
 The factory laws were revised in 1886. when the working hours for women and children were limited. Now all wages have to be paid in cash, and there are no such things as store orders and factory stores. An employer cannot dismiss his workmen contrary to his contract with them and he can infiict fines only. accord ing to the rules of the labor department. All large factories outside the towns hava to provide free hospitals. baths. schools and libraries for their people, and any employer who mistreats his men can DC fined; on the other hand, the men can be punished for striking without cause. If an employer abuses hls employes the gov- ernment may close his factory and put him in jail, so that altogether the laws are pretty fair.
 Russia has fewer strikes than other countries. Its labor Is not organized as ours is, and 1t will be long time before the unions have the power there that they have in England and Germany.

 Along the Volga there are thousands of women who weave fishing nets. using million pounds of hemp and other raw material every year. They labor on the farms in the summer and do this work in the winter. Their average earnings are about 10 cents per day, while the children who help them are glad to get 5, or cents.
 In the Big Factories.
 Within the past generation a great num- Der of big factories have been establish ed in Russia. The millions who are working in their homes are to a large ex- tent skilled laborers, and it takes but little time to teach them to handle machinery. The result is there is an abundance of cheap labor and all the industrial centers are growing. St.

month or 50 cents a week, about-8 cents a day. In general 1t is reckoned that the wages of a woman should be two-thirds, those of a girl or boy of 16 or r one-half and those of child one third the wages of man.
 This is in Central Russia. The wages are little higher in St. Petersburg and in the west and south, but they are low CT in the east and especially along the Volga.
 The highest wages are paid in the en- gineering and machine shops, where the average Is $l25O a month for a ten-hour day. In the textile industries men get less than $S per month and women about $5, the woolen hands receiving more than those in cotton. In the silk mills women receive about SIPS a week and men on the average not more than g per week, although some skilled laborers on velvets and brocades have as much as 8 a week.
 There are 5000 hands in the sugar mills and their wages average $9 month. Un-

 In some such establishments along the Volga cheap jewelry is made. Fifty vil- lages make a speciality of it. They manu- fracture earrings. bracelets, lockets and rings and gild them. They make copper and brass jewelry and ship 1t to Asia, The product is enormous.
 There are many thousands engaged on icons, or the pictures of saints cut out of metal and painted. which are found in every Russian home. They sell for from few cents to many dollars, and are ex- ported to all countries where the Greek Church has a foothold. There are some engaged in printing, others color litho- graphs and many make boxes of papier mache and enamel them. There is one town where old-fashioned wall clocks are turned out and another where they make little looking glasses SO chauplv that 1,000 can be sold at wholesale for SEQ and still leave the manufacturers a profit of about 8 In the same villages more expensive wares are produced. including costly pier and mantel glasses.

certain persons of the ''new rich" have been appearing in Hyde Park with be- wigged footmen, and, oblivlous to the customs they are tramping under foot, ride haughtily by with their footmen grandly powdered. Worst of all Is the wife of a certain South African million aire who has the wigs of her footmen ornamented with five white curls on eith- CT side. In the days of the Georges, only the royal family used five curls, and the conservative element shuddered when this example of lese majeste was shown.
 In London 1t is said that the court will soon post list of regulations that will inform persons how many curls should be worn on footmen's wigs and also what persons are entitled to this mark of rank.

In all cases where the working time ex- ceeds ten hours day there must be one interval of not less than an hour. Men can make contracts for more than eleven and one-half hours if they wish, and on the farms fourteen hours and more Is not uncommon. Women and children are not allowed to work at night in the iron works, and they are not allowed in the mines at all.
 How They Live.
 The American workman who receives ten, twenty or more times as much as the Russians. will ask how men can live on such wages. They cannot, in our sense of living The houses of many of them are little better than our stables although at some of the factories the people live rent free in homes furnished by their employers. In the Government of Moscow 57 per cent of the workmen live in such houses, while only 25 per cent. own their own homes. Rents are low and our average workingman's fam fly wastes more every day than would keep that of the average Russian labor CT. His staple food is rye bread and cabbage soup, He has little meat; it seldom costs him more than g a week, and $20 will keep him for six months. or more.
 was in Russia during the famine, when millions of people had to be fed at the lowest possible cost l visited one gov ernment works, where 700 laborers were being boarded at an average cost of 9 cents a day, and for this each got four meals, two hot and two cold. Every man received four pounds of bread a day, he had soup, three-quarters of pound of meat and also vegetables and mush. This was for workingmen, and indeed I was told that thousands were fed on half that amount.

 Low Profits the Rule.
 Goods are sold so low that the profits are small. It is chiefly question of raw material the labor cost being little. In some of the associations men, women and children work from daylight to dark. and if each makes a few cents day he Is satisfied. Take the lock makers.
