AN ATTEMPT WILL BE

New York Employing Builders Will
Use Non Union Labor On
Contracts.

NEW YORK, July 27.-The board Of
governors of the Building Trades En-
ployers association today ordered all
members of the association to start
work on buildings at once, using any
housesmith hosting engineers ana
shorers who would individually sign
their plan Of arbitration.
This means that work will be started
on the larger part of the building oper-
ations throughout the city and that
men will be employed on them ire
spective Of whether they are union or
not.
The members of the Employers asso-
citation are confident that with this
step the end of the building tie-up is
we'll in sight and that no difficulty will
be experienced in obtaining men. After
the meeting of the United Board of
Building Trades in Brewoort hall to-
day Samuel Parks said:
1.-THE housesmiths are all together
and will stay together without any plan
Of arbitration
However, there is large conserva-
tive element in the union, led by Pres

In a. world Of plenty he was to be for

commerce, transportation, travel, he
had assisted thousands of people to en-

formed an inestimable amount Of hard
labor that society could not have dis
pensed with. The world was richer
than ever before; and yet he was to
struggle under the burden of poverty
all his days. Not because the world
was poor or empty, not because he had
squandered his earnings, not because he
had been idle or drunken or extrava-
giant; society had barely rendered him
enough of labor's productions to keep
him and his family while working; now
he was laid aside as worthless, his COM

spain,s migratory sheep.

There are about 100000 migra tory
sheep in Spain, which each year travel
as much as 200 miles from the plains to
the mountains. They are known as
transhumantcs, and their march, rest
ing places and behavior are governed
by special regulations, dating from the
fourteenth century. At certain times
no one may travel the same route rs
the sheep, which have the right to
Craze on all open and common land on
the way. For this purpose Il road nine
ty yards wide must be left on all in
closed and private property. The shep-
herds lead their hocks, which follow
after and around. The hoclls are ac-
companied by provision mules and by
large dogs to guard against wolves
The merino sheep travel 400 miles to
the mountains, and the total time spent
on the migration there and back is
fourteen weeks.

Cheese Dishes.

Cheese is one of the most concentrate
ed forms of heterogeneous food and as a
food well adapted to the laboring man
or those working in the open air. When
properly cooked. cheese is probably
more easily assimilated by the ordinary
stomach than eaten raw, and hard, I'M
cooked cheese should be served grated.
In combination with certain food mate
rails cheese is valuable, but when used
in this way should form the staple dish
of the meal. Macaroni and cheese, rice
cooked in stock and then baked with
cheese or cooked with it, us in the form
of risottc, should be used in the place
Of meat. An ordinary dinner menu of
meat, potato, macaroni and cheese is
not properly arranged. Macaroni and
cheese should be used for a luncheon
dish, and Il green vegetable should be
served With meat and potato.

Bribery In Elections.

Bribery in elections is an ancient if
not an honorable custom. This is shown
in the case of Shrewsbury. England.
An extract from Parry's "Parliaments
and Councils of England of case of
bribery, With its punishment in 1911
shows how long the pernicious custom
has been in practice: Thomas Long, a
very simple man and unfit to serve, is
questioned how he came to be elected
He confesses that he gave the mayor
of Westbury and another "a for his
place. They are ordered to repay this
sum. and fine of t2O is to be assessed
on the corporation and inhabitants of
Westbury for their scandalous at
tempt" One can imagine the indigna-
ton Of those Inhabitants of Shrews-
bury who received no bride having to
pay fine for those who did.

Larry O'Brien was told off by his ship

"Denny:" said the surprised woman.
MY Denny: No, he's not in. Is the
ship here?"
sure it is. And Denny's not got

thing has happened him."
What would happen him?" Mrs. Nc

RELIGION In CHINE.
There Are Three state Systems, Com
fucio:i III, Rutiu b Ism and IN iSnl.

fucianism, Buddhism and TnGisnl.
In theory Confucianism is tie re-
ligion OF the state The state officials
are the literati who have secured their
positions through the study OF the
classics-i. e.. the Sacred Writings OF
Confucius.' Thu -onfucianiSt temples
are protected and honored by the state,
and the worship of Confucius is carried
on at the expense of the state. IN q
limited sense, too, Buddhism can also
claim TO be Il state religion. The same
is also true OF Taoism, since deceased
generals and statesmen are assigned
their corresponding ranks with the
Taoistic king of the lower world III
hades. In this role they are worShiped
in Taoistic temples. In this way it is
possible for Chinaman to make use
of all three religions without getting
into conflict with the distinctive prill-
ciples Of any of them. Their officials
worship together. In funeral services
monks of both orders are found per
forming functions on different days.
The public temples are usually III
contro! of the Taoists, but sometimes
are III charge of Buddhists. Not rarely
Taoistic gods are found in Buddhist
temples and vice versa. Sometimes
they differ only il name. The Bud
dhist goddess of mercy is the Taoist
goddess of heaven. The pearl king OF
the Taoists is the imperial ruler of the
Buddhists. Both systems teach the
same ten princes in hadcs, and even
a reproduction of the Buddhist punish
ment in he'll is found i'll the Taoist tenn
