whole the freight situation is more

Explanation to Washington.

.4aA --
ExplanatiO to Washington.
Washington, April 6.-Acting Secre-
tary Darling received in Saturday
mornings mail a report from Rear Ad-
miral Rogers, commandant at the New
York navy yard, upon the ejectment
from that yard Friday of a walking
delegate, one C. S. Massey, represent
ing the Housesmiths' union of New
York. Admiral Rogers statement is
temperate review Of the conditions
which led up to his action.
Seven or eight workmen, he says,
were approached by Massey. They
yielded to his demands and quit work.
These men were employed by q con-
tractor to Install the big derrick which
will handle the material for the battle
ship Connecticut, and the extent of the
admiral's activity was simply to pre-
vent interference with the working
men while in the limits Of the navy
yards.
AS the case now stands, in view Of
Admiral Rogers statement, the de-
partment does not feel called upon for
any actlOn.
Agreement Almost Ready to sign.
St. Louis, April g. promptly at ten
o'clock representatives Of the Wabash
Railroad company and the labor or
ganizations to which its trainmen and
firemen belong resumed their confer
ence over the agreement as to the new
rules to govern the employees and
wages to be paid them; Col. Blodgett,
general solicitor Of the Wabash, stated
to the press that there were still some
matters of detail to be decided on be-
fore the agreement will be signed. He.
thought that without doubt the agree
ment would be signed sometime dur
ing the day and, that all possibility Of .
strike would be averted.

Grandmother Shocked at Girls Light
 Ideas of Breaking Engagements.

From the Washington Post
 Among the many curious qualities I have noticed in the present growing gem eration," sighed the philosophical grand mother of the three Washingtons most up-to-date and charming girls, lis the strange and almost unnatural value the girls of today place upon unimportant things in connection with affairs of grave importance. I refer particularly to the silly things to which girl will take exception in selecting--a husband To my certain knowledge, my daughters each have been engaged a dozen times, which, within itself, I regard as shock ing, but the reason they give me for having broken their engagements is be- yond my understanding and really have caused me many hours of anxiety as to their sanity.
 My eldest granddaughter a beautiful girl. was engaged to marry a man with whom the family were well pleased. We really considered him worth of her, which. of course, is saying good deal. It was within q few weeks of the we'd ding and the preparations were well un- der way when, to our utter amazement, the child announced one morning at breakfast, that 1t is all off, and when l

I could not stand that eternal sniffling,' but l argued, that is some nervous affection Tt certainly is she gayly retorted. and. what's more catchng for I've gotten so l find myself waiting for him to sniff and everytime he snlffs, I do. Naturally, I'd soon be as bad as he, so just broke the engagement, and haven't sniffed since

I've never be- fore confessed why I really broke off my engagement with dear old Jack. But Jacks socks were the torment of my life, always loose, and looked as if they would tumble over his shoes without mo- ment's warning. The moment he came into my sight found myself looking straight at his socks. It got so after while I never thought of him only in connection with socks and every other minute it was Pull up your socks, Jack; 1t really looks awful and each time the dear fellow would explain how he could not wear tight garters-something about poor circulation prevented him from do- ing so. Now had Jacks socks been as straight and well in check as his morals I know I should have married him; but

 Once there was a womaB who never discussed her husbands faults with oth- CT women. This is not a fairy tale-the woman was deaf and dumb.
 It need not necessarily be inferred that the woman who dons openwork lace hose and a low cut waist in order to take a sun bath of three hours duration on the beach, never entering the water, is immodest It may be that she feels she Is too modest. and is but disclplining her self in order to overcome the fault.
 Petticoats prove little concerning the femlnlnity of the wearer. She may be "emancipated."
 It Is the unattainable ideal that causes grief. For instance, the men who wear their hair long and the women who wear theirs short the men who don corsets and the women who array themselves in frock coats and cravats, forever must keenly feel that something still Is lack ing
