corner Was an old lady. Mr.. Hume
said to his friend that he really did
not know how to murder anyone in a
new way. He had murdered at least
20 people, but he now wanted new
mode. The old lady shivered, and
looked most apprehensive. At the
next station she got out hnrriedly,
Evidently she took MIR. Hume for a
dangerous lunatic travelling with his
keeper.

Roosevelt and the Unions.

The central labor union of Washing
ton and other labor organizations In
various parts of the country are doing
incalculable harm to the cause of organ
lied labor by their stand in opposition
to President Roosevelt because he re-
fuses to countenance the dismissal of w.
X. Miller, non-union man, a foreman
in the government printing office, mere
ly because he will not identify himself
with unionism.
In his course in this matter, as in
most other matters of official duty, the
president is manifestly in the right
Positions in the government printing
Office are urder the civil service, and
the law does not specify membership in
the union as one of the qualifications
for a place. Indeed, it is doubtful If
such law would stand the test of con-
stitutionality if enacted. At any rate,
such policy would be dangerous to the
unions, as there would be less liability
of such a law than of one denying mem
bers of unions places in the government
service, as the trades uniorists are but
small minority of the voters.
Very properly, the government looks
at all citizens alike, and asks only proper
qualification and faithful service from
its employees.
From the new viewpoint of the eX-
treme trades unionists, the declaration
of independence should be revised to
read; "All men are created equal; they
are endowed by their Creator with GER
tain unalienable rights; among these are
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
all of which is with the understanding
that they be members of the union
There is no graver danger to the re-
public to-day than the growing tyranny
and arrogance of trades unions, under
the leadership of agitators who are
bleeding the la5oring men and foment-
ing disturbances for their own selfish
ends. There is no reason or justice in
this new demand for special privileges
under the law for union men, and an
inslstence by the unions may result in
specific laws against combinations of
labor, even as combinations of capital
are outlawed now.
At any rate, President Roosevelt need
have no fear of the labor vote. The
sturdy American farmers, the residents
of the rural communities and the think
ing voters of the great cities will unite,
regardless of political affiliations, to ad
minister to trades unionism deserved
rebuke if an attempt is made to carry
this issue with the next national cam
paign.

Painting AnimaIs' Eyes.

One of the most difficult things which
the artists and taXidermists of the gov
eminent studio have TO do is the paint
ing and preparation of glass eyes for
the mammals, birds and reptiles
mounted at that institution for exhibit
ton in the National museum.
These "eyes" are made of glass, hol-
low within and from the rear, so that
the inner surface may be painted any
are alike and as the colors are often
complicated and unusual, it requires a
great deal Of skill, study and practice
before one is competent to undertake
the work.

Railroad returns published today showed large gains in gross earnings but de- crease in net earnings which Is far from encouraging, especially in the case of the Pennsylvania, where increase in operating expenses has been very large. There Is all kinds of bull talk. but thus far there has been no public buying and the ad- vance in the market has been due to arti- fcial measures. We believe that re- action is due and that stocks sold on this advance will show profitable returns.

Baxter 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, October 2.-Cotton eased off sharply during the morning and there was considerable selling. The market showed little snap. Outside business was moderate the south bought at the de- cline. Gables were lower today and the weather was very fine. Receipts were full. There was nothing stirring as re- gards the crop or the prospective move ment. The more settled situation in Wall street was having a good senti- mental effect on cotton despite early weakness today
 The condition is that there Is no big crop ahead but this view will prevail as soon as frost appears and It's general ly agreed that freezing weather prior to November 20th will lead to the adoption of the lowest crop estimates than for some time
 September closed with 500OOO bales be- hind last year.
 What October may do is a question but even with an increased October move ment over last year which was 196O,OOO bales we expect to see an earlier peter Ing out subsequent to that date than in many previous years.
 There was some manipulation by bull leaders today who seemed anxious to depress the market in expectation of a very bullish bureau report tomorrow Cables were steady at the close at 2 to IA points loss. Yarns at Manchester move slowly. cloths show fair busi- ness.
