The opening chorus, Lead Kindly Light" was rendered in very pleasing manenr by members of the choir. Joseph Barry in his Irish i'm presentations was the great favor1te with the audience. J.. J. Dunn, Master Keefe and MT Drescher contributed greatly to the entertainment by ely rendering some musical selections. The "F1orodora" sextet, the pantomime, Jesus, Lover of My Soul" and the fan drill, all of which were enacted by members of the junior choir. were ap- plauded to the echo. St Johns male quartet also contributed greatly to the program. Miss Louise Malone as ac- companist had the most difficult part of any and to her great credit is due for she was not only responsible for all the accompaniments,' but she has been persistent from the start in her en- deavors to make the affair grand sue cess. R. N. Deland had the managing

Failure on the part of employers to notify men of the annoyance or vio- fence to which they may be exposed in taking the places of others who are on strike renders the employers liable to damages in the event that such em- ployes meet with injury at the hands of the strikers. This decision was rem dered by the court of appeals of Col orado in the case of an employe who had been shot by strikers, and who claimed that he was hired without being informed that there was strike at the plant where he was engaged. This claim was an explicit statement of fact that could not be offset by the mere argument of the employers counsel, who asserted that the en- ploye ought to have discovered that a strike was in progress and that the strikers were not in tranquil state of mind.

plOye ought to have discovered CndL1 d. strike was in progress and that the strikers were not in a tranquil state of mind.
 Representatives of the Tobacco Workers International union have been in Waterbury for several days past for the purpose of pushing the sale of union made tobacco. They have visited the different unions. and while strongly advocating the use of their own line of goods they made strong pleas in favor of union men pur- chasing no article unless it bears the seal of organized labor One of the strongest arguments made was the fact that while strikes, boycotts, etc which were formerly much resorted to by unionss were more and more frequently enjoined by injunction, the insisting upon all goods purcha ased bearing the label was something that could not be restrained by the law or courts. If the union men of this and other places would follow the advices of these men there would be no. question but that the condition of all would be benefited.
 Many attempts have been made to
 
 various locals to tho Central Labor union for the benefit of the striking trolleymen discontinued and in some cases these efforts have succeeded tenn porari1y. One day this week a mem Der of a union that has been paying from the outset (and that has a goodly percentage of members that will con- tinue doing so until the word "finis'') entered into conversation with man who claimed to be one af the trolley strikers. Said trolley striker made the assertion that the weekly stipend re- celved by him had always been small, $6 per week being about the average; that a considerable portion of the money raised for local benefits had been paid out for the support of inter- national officers" and many other as- sertions of a similar nature too sense less to require denial so far as any who had attended the meetings of their own organizations were concerne& The as- serted striker claimed that it was inn possible for him to live on any such amount and so he procured work else where, as many others have done who have sought to cast no reflections on those who have assisted them. The s'tale of woe,'' having gained some cir cuIation, was looked into and it was found that no person bearing this gen t1eman's name had ever received one penny of strike benefit, much less the small sum of $6 per. It was further found that no person of his name had ever been a member of the Amalga- mated Street Railway Employees union of Waterbury. While it is said that "a1l is fair in love and war" tactics of this kind rarely prove successful in the

Since the annual number of the Brief published anonymously by the students of the Harvard law school, made its ap- pearance, there has been much com ment caused by some new law analyses contained in the first article in the publication. It divides law into four great branches. thus: Common law, equity, Standard Oil law, and lynch law" The third branch is given the following definition: Standard Oil law is generic term to classify all law where you have a soul-killing monopoly as defendant and a small tuberculal partn nershtp as plaintiff.

A decided victory was scored for the champions of union labels by the de cision of the St Louis, Mo. court of ap- peals, affirming the judgment and sus- ta1ning the conviction by the court of criminal correction of Frederick Mes mann, 8 St Louis cigar manufacturer, who was fined $500 for selling cigars from box containing a counterfeit of the cigarmakers' label. The suit was prosecuted by'a St Louis cigarmakers' union. and the state was represented by an attorney. This action by the ap- pellate court Is novel, in that it is the first important label case that has been presented to a higher court for adjudi. cation since the supreme court upheld the constitutionality of the act making it 8 crime to use counterfeit labels.
