WILL GET AN INCREASE.
Conductors and Trainmen Have MOI
Yet Settled Their Griveances

Cedar Rapids. Jan. 12-"There Is
nothing especially new in the negotia-
tions between the committees of con-
ductors and trainmen with the various
railways" said Grand Secretary Max
we'll, of the Order of Railway Conduc-
tors yesterday morning. but am con-
fident that the negotiations will result
in a substantial increase of wagzs for
the conductors and tTainmen, and 1 do
not believe that there will be a strike
The men DO not want strike and T do
not believe that the railway managers
do, either.
The negotiations between these
committee and the heads of all the rail-
ways west of Chicago and ST. Paul is in
accordance with the original plans.
Each organization presents its case to
the managers of each railway and that
is the usual plan. Occasionally there is
joint action, when railway considers
the request of number of organiza-
tions, but the usual way is for each or
ganization 10 present the matter to each
of the roads.

ports that any one of the railways will
grant the 20 per cent increase in wages

Former Minnesota State Senator !.
Party to Important Suit.

Duluth, Jan. 12.-Alonzo ]. White
man, of Dansville. N. Y. former state
senator for Duluth, may be wealthy
once more. His sensational career OF
the past ten years is we'll known to
the newspaper reading public. A suit
entitled the A. j. Dwyer Pine Land
Company VS.. A. j. Whitman, involv-
ing title to valuable tracts of pine IN
this part of the state, has just been
concluded at Brainerd. A decision will
be given in about thirty days, but
owing to the values involved the case
will probably go to the supreme court
MIR. Whiteman testified on cross ex-
animation that he had never been con-
yicted of felony. never been in peni-
Tertiary, and that there are no judg-
outstanding against him. An
other important suit involving White

London Papers Mention Some

LONDON, Nov. If the latest
work of the English woman writer who
uses the pen-name of Victoria Cross"
Is published in the United States, it
will be rather interesting to see If it
receives as lively q reception as that
which has greeted it here. This book,
which is called six Chapters in a
Mans Life" has succeeded, by start
ling code of morality which it adj
vances, in calling forth strong Ian
guage from most reviewers. while two
prominent London newspapers have
pronounced it unfit for decent people
read.
Miss or Mrs. "Victoria
Cross" has kept her real identity well
concealed, and it cannot be said what
is her true name. She is the author of
several rather successful novels, the
best known of them being anna Lom-
bard" which was published last year
and which neWSdealer told me

latest of Marie Corelli and Mr.. Game.
One does not recall any ones having
been shocked by Anna Lombard" but
there seems to be little doubt that
six Chapters in a Mans Life" is
pretty strong meat.
In case the book has not yet reached
America, it may be said that it's hero
and heroine are an English man and
woman travelling about together in Eu-
rope without having gone through the
formality of marriage. The woman
wears masculine -dress-apparently in
order that she may be able to accom-
pany her lover into all sorts of shady
oh 1,r9, ~
both imbibe freely-and her ideas are
of the sort that might have been ex-
pected.
What one feels regarding both re-
ligion and morality" she says, lis that
there is no absoluteness about either.
Both are merely things of time and
place, both very directly with the lati-
tude."
And later on she observes: "Chil-
dren! I dislike them immensely; they
bore me unutterably. 1 should sdetest
the man who made me a mother"
Finally the precious pair visit Egypt,
where the woman is kidnapped, and
spends some time in a harem, pre-
ferring, as she says, cher life to her
honor"
Regarding this elevating work, B.
Fletcher Robinson, the intimate friend
of Dr. Doyle, who advised him to kill
SHCIlOCh I1OlluCo ny lllIOWluS Hllu over
a precipice, and who also suggested the
plot of "The Hound of the Basker-

The words in this speller were Sc
lected by classroom teachers after
observing the class vocabulary for a
year. They include, therefore, those
words which require special attention,
and which will be of most immediate
practical use to the child. They are
arranged by years, from the second to
the seventh, and very carefully graded
according to difficulty. In the earlier
lessons the accumulation and pronun-
citation of the words are marked. H.
Illustrative sentences show the uses and
meanings of words with the same
sound. Among the selections for study
are such favorites as Whittier's Bare

conditions in the school, and not upon
theories. and will be proportionately
successful among practical teachers.

This is very different from David
Graham Phillips other books, being a
satire on a successful man who uses
doubtful methods to obtain his mil
lions. The story is told by the man
himself in the first person, and he re-
counts his rise from clerk in dry
goods house in New York to the own
ership of the business. After his first
million has been obtained by squeez-
ing the original owner out of the bust
ness he had founded and built up, the
rest of his wealth came comparatively
easy. His children he did not con-

most of the story is taken up with
telling what trials he had with them.
One of his daughters, Helen, was true
blue, and did not show the cringing
fear of her father that characterized
the others. In the end Helen inherited
his wealth and made every one happy
about her. The writer has done much
better work than this, and "The Mas

security.
