HoLD-UP EASILY FoILED.
With vaIuab1es in Left Hand Protec- tion Is Perfect-PIan Has sanc-
 ton of Police.

A man who carries his money and his watch in his left hand will never lose penny nor tine- piece in hold-up. The precaution which is a perfect one, is so simple that few people have thought of it. Yet 1t has the sanction of the police, and it's efficacy has been proven in more than one instance, says the Chi cago Tribune
 As soon as the citizen is confronted by the hold-up man he will, if he has his money and his watch in his hand, throw them on the. nearest lawn or Into the ditch. No highway robber has time to stop and look for either There is no sense in carrying vaIuables in the right hand, because the first move of every accomplished hold-up man is to grab his victim by his right arm The movement is made to prevent the victim from reaching for revolver.
 The man who tries to draw a revoI- yer while the hold-up man is in front of him takes his life in his hands If a citizen carries revolver at all he should carry it in his right hand whsle in dangerous street. His money and his watch should always be in his left. Then after he had thrown them away and the robber has departed discom- fited the victim can take his time about finding his property.
 This simply plan discounts all the revolvers, sword canes, slungshots, and brass knuckles ever invented and has the added beauty that it can be employed by a woman as we'll as a man. To throw the purse or the watch away takes but fraction of second, and that isn't long.

BEING IN SOCIETY.
If Man Likes to Be Exclusive, Just
 Let Him Alone

If Man Likes to Be Exclusive, Just
 Let Him Alone
 A woman is so irritated because she cannot enter that corporation known as the smart set that she has cut up rusty and got her name into the pa pers, like the disappointed heir in The Black Sheep" This might be pre- lfminary to getting a job on the stage in some quarters or classes, but to- her it is very serious. What is there about the little company of four hundred people, more or less. that stirs the jealousy of so many women? One can understand why people like mon ey, but it doesn't needfully make the people interesting who own 1t. On the contrary, when people are cele- brated only for having money it is found that they do not know how to be celebrated for anything else,
 One can understand why the fine houses of the four hundred should be admired, but you will see deeora- tions and bric-a-brac every bit as fine in the hotels and shops, you will see better pictures in the Metropolitan museum you will hear better music at the opera and the symphony concerts, you can inspect clothes quite as inter- esting in the stores, and jewelry as expensive at the jewellers; the dinner served over the rich mans tables are less varied and no better than you can buy for yourself in the restaur- ants; the parks, boulevards, libraries and galleries are as free for you as for the Astors. What is it, then, that en- yeIops the leisure class in this gla- nor of mystery and charm and So piques the envy and interest of wo- mankind? Nothing but this: The four hundred want to- be exclusive.
 The right of any individual and of any club or coterie of individuals to be exclusive ought to be respected. It is free country, and if man wants to sit on hill top and be club or an aristocracy, let him alone. He isn't harming anybody. If you push your self into the society of the avenue when you live on the Bowery, the ave. nue may act so unpleasantly that you will be sorry that you crowded in. If you pay no attention to the avenue you will discover your reward in many things that are better worth while, You can see the same plays, read the same books, eat the. same food as are seen, read and eaten by the idols and have just as good a time. For, between ourselves, nobody has a good time in this world unless he does are dull company for folks who do, and for themselves. Brooklyn. Eagle.

a NEW LABOR DECISION.

An entirely unique labor decision
has just been handed down by q Penn
sylvania court. Contrary to the usual
method Of procedure, the employer did
not invoke the assistance Of the court
in . fight with labor; nor did the labor
ing man ask the court to help him in
. battle with their employer. 1t was
q case of union against union, and the
story of the trouble is worth telling.
The Council of Allied Building Tades
Of Philadelphia bad long wanted the
Plumbes' league to afiliate with it.
Time after time overtures we're made
and as regularly as they we're made
the plumbers turned them down. Then,
in order to force crisis. the council
ordered strike on some work where
members of the rival organizations
we're employed. The only way in which
the contractors could effect a settle
ment was by the discharge of the
plumbers.
Encouraged by this successful out
come, the council declared it's inten-
ton of ordering strikes wherever the
members of the plumbers organization
were employed with it's men. Another
attempt was made. but the plumbers
took the matter into court. A decision
just handed down by the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania sustains the
plumbers. The opinion Of the court is
SO clear and so we'll put that We
quote:
I'VE do not question that defendants
right to- the free use of his hands e
the workman's property as much as
the rich mans right to the undisturbed
income from his factory, houses and
lands. This right Of acquiring proper
ty is an inherent, indefeasible; right
! Of the workman to exercise it he
must have the unrestricted privilege
Of working for. such employer as he
chooses, at such wages as he chooses
to accept. This is a right which the
law Of no trade union can take frosl
him.
<It is argued that the defendants
either individually or by organization
suade plaintiffs and others not to wors
and their employer not to hire them
!. so they have. 1t is further argued tina
they can quit work when they choose
!. SO they can But neither of these sug
gested cases is the one before us. Thu
men lost their work: the employer
were inundated because they feare'
further loss. How absurd it is to cal
this peaceable persuasion, and how ali
surd to argue that If the law attempt
/ to prevent it the right Of the workmel
to organize for their common benefi
is frustrated"
There is nothing that can be adde
to the words Of the court except tn
opinion that the judgment is tho!
oughly righteous one. 1t should teac
: the warning factions in Philadelphi
that they must maintain toward eac
other the friendly, tolerant spirit the
expect from others outside Of labo
organizations. Otherwise trade uniol
ism cannot survive.-Salt Lake He
