at huge bowls over blazing GOALS and still
more coming In and out with curiously
mumbled Chinese orders.
The dining room floor was no cleaner

tables with large round tops, and two
Cinnamon hastily grasped these tops one
at time, lifted an infinite variety OF small
round backless stools, showed here, there
and everywhere.
A Chinaman with pipe leisurely brought
them a pot Of tea and infant washbowla
slipped the tea and the girl stared about
her.
At one table sat white people, who ap.

two Cinnamon ate rice with chopsticks
sitting with their hats on. At still another
young and pretty white woman smoked

Labor conditions in Saxony can not be
satisfactory. Yesterday the Star called
attention to labor conditions in New
South Wales, where the time in eight
hours and the minimum rate of wakes
$40 per day. The recent strike at
Crimmitschau in Saxony shows that
the textile weaver there work eleven
hours a day and that the average pay
is $l43 per year or $275 per week. Is it
any wonder that worl1men strike under
such circumstances. Yet the employers
claim that the rate of wages paid at
Crimmitschau is higher than that paid
to textile workers in any part of the
country. Decidedly there is need of
arbitration boards in Saxony, and a
strong labor cooperation. Fancy work.
