LIFE IN ROME
IL Causes the Temporary Visitor se
Think as the Romans Think.


The ssrsngest thing shout life in
Rome is that one not only does as the
Romans do. but ends by thinking as
the Romans think. feeling as the Ro-
mans feel. The best illustration l know
OF this is the mental attitude OF the
foreign residents toward certain super
stitions. notably the belief in the evil
eye-the malocohio or 5ettatura. as it
is indirerently called. ] never knew
an Italian who did not hold more or
less TO this superstition. Americans
who have lived long In Rome either
reluctantly sdmi, that there does
seem TO be something in it, or. II they
are Roman born quietly accept IL as
one OF those things in heaven and
earth OF which philosophy fails TO take
account
In certain respects the Italian is
markedly free from superstition as
compared with the Celt or the Scot.

called. To dream OF certain things in

Der is the chief preoccupation OF the
hardened lottery player. II is decided
by the oldest chsnce-by the number

kind. The great naturalist Frank
auckland. records the story Of a rat
which was caught by the same APP
parently harmless shellnsh. Some
wears ago common rail was found
dead on the shores near Penzance.
Its beak was tightly caught in the
clutches OF an oyster. which was still
alive. The bird and oyster were re-
moved and mounted. An even more
queer case was that Of small salt

the mussel must have been pretty

told OF colored man who was caught

tongue into a bslf-opened oyster TO

WALLINGPORD

A new aspect in the strike of the steel knife flnishers at R. Wallace & Sons Manufacturing company developed on Saturday as several of the other em- ployes went out on sympathetic strike. Before the closing down time at noon came the following notices were posted in the factory:
 NOTICE.
 The factory will close this noon. May 2S, until further notice.
 R. W. & s. Mfg. Co.
 The officials of the company have nothing to offer to the press on the sub ject. and state that the notices put up cover the situation for the present at lease The trouble, arises from some eight of the knife finishers who went out on a strike week or more ago be- cause of a reduction of 10 per cent. in wages. Friday some of the employees in the buffing, plating and satin finish ing departments went out.
 - How long it will be before the factory will start up is not known. There are several departments which will not be affected and will resume work to-mor- A@N employees who are well versed in the sit uation. state that the company has got on hand in stock, excepting certain ar ticles that can be got ready, enough goods to fll all the orders that will come in for three months at least, and never were in better condition to shut down for a while than at the present time. Conservative men who know what they are talking about say that the strike is i'll advised and will result in a bad blow to the labor unions that are interested in the movement. The last strike at R. Wallace & Sons was somewhere about eighteen years ago when the Knights of Labor were four ishing in this town. The strike was a dead failure. and nothing more was ever heard of the Knights of Labor af- ter the strike was over. The men re- turned to work after about three weeks vacation, but each one applied individ- ually for position.
