BOYCOTT Is PLACED ON
CHINESE RESTAURANTS
Cooks And Walters Union Declares
War on tho Chinks.

Failing to get satisfactory answers
from the proprietors Of Chinese res
tuarants as to the unionizing Of their
restaurants the cooks and walters
union have inaugurated a campaign
against them. This action was taken
after the action of the Trades Assem-
bly, at its last meeting, and the prom
Use of support by union labor in gen.
eral.
The Cooks and walters are not op-
posed to the Cinnamon going into
| business, but they do expect them to
pay union wages and adhere to union
conditions. This is strongly against
the practices Of the Mongolians. They
come from a country that champions
cheap labor. If it were not for the
action of Congress America would
have been Chaneized long ago. The
National Law Making body saw the
danger Of Chinese immigration many
years ago. It was after due delibera-
| ton that it passed law preventing
the importation Of cheap Asiatic labor
were in the country at the time were
permitted to remain. Hor. B. Coor
ond others pretend to have been here
then, although thousands have stoler
! their way into the country via Canada
| thence to some obscure point.
The Duluth unions should be sup
ported by every American in thei
crusade against the Cinnamon. Sew
eral avowed enemies of organized
labor have asserted that they will sup
port the Chinese restaurants for NJ
other reason than that union labor wa
against them. This is carrying tn
matter too far Whatever ones scru
pies may be there should be no ques
ton as to his attitude when it come
to a difference between the America
Workingman and the Chinese.

WORD OF THANKS.

There is one sorrow from which we
refuse to be divorced, and that is the
sorrow over the loss of a departed
loved one. We lost a little jewel from
our home this week. Although but
an infant, he occupied a place in our
haven that no one can fill. The sor-
row over his loss is an inward sorrow
that can not even be expressed by
those who claimed him. He is gone,
and gone forever. In meekness we
bow before that Divine Power and
submit to His will, knowing full we'll
~ ~ things we'll. While
the sorrow is to be borne most heavily
va lllosi faithful one, who
perhaps is least capable of bearing
1T, yet it is to be remembered that
such Is in the path of life, and we
must learn to outlive it all.
TO our many friends and neighbors
on Duluth Heights and elsewhere we
express our most grateful thanks for
the many kind expressions Of sympa-
thy, by both words and deeds, in the
loss of our little son, Armor Homes.
We were surrounded, during his
short illness and after, by kind and
loving friends who did all in their
power to tighten the sorrows of those
trying moments. ALL for which we are
most sincerely grateful.

BOER LDAR UETERANS TO
TELL OF LONG CONFLICT
General Gideon Jouber and Captain ODonne Who Took Part
in Many Bloody Battles Will Recount Experiences With
Veldt Armies Lecture ii Be Profusely Illustrated

An illustrated lecture on the South
African war will be given at the Ly-
ceum Sunday night by General Gideon
Joubert and Capt. w. S. O'Donnell,
two men who held important COM
mands on the Boer side during the
progress of that memorable struggle.
General Joubert is Of French Hugue-
not descent, his ancestors having set
tied in South Africa in 1889, and he is
A nephew of the famous Gen. Peter
Joubert who comprised the disastrous
defeat of the British at Majuba Hill
in 1881.
He was engaged in the peaceful puf-
suit Of a farmer and dealer in mer-
chandise at BrandfOrt when the bugle
note was sounded calling the African
ders to meet the incoming British
forces and forbid the invasion of the
Transvaal republic in 1899. He mus
tered his neighbors, and as only cor
poral he began the service in which he
earned advancement until he was
general in command Of the southwest
ern division in the Orange Free State
He was first in the Stormberg en-
gagement and from that until he was
wounded the last time and taken
prisoner just three months before the
termination of the conflict, he was IN

the thick of the fighting.
The relation of his personal exper-
fences with DeWet during his remark
able campaign will undoubtedly prove
Of vast interest,".
Captain O'Donnell was born in
Waterford, Ireland, but left his native
country at the age of fifteen to. try
his luck in South Africa. He is a
sturdy specimen of the Celtic race, and
did good service with the Irish brigade
under General DeWet during the war.
Among the principal views shown will
be the battle of Magersfontein, where
the Scandinavian troops fought 50
bravely and where the famous Black
Watch was annihilated, the field at
Spion Kop, the battlefield Of Modder
Sprult, where the German recruits on
the Boer side distinguished themselves
and Paardeberg where General Cronje
| surrendered with 1000 men to $4,000
| British after fourteen days hard fight
ing.
The advance sale of seats for this
event has been extremely large and the
| house will unquestionably be crowded
by those whose sympathies were
aroused by the heroic struggle of the
Beers for freedom against overwhelm-
| ing odds.
