THE BROKEN VIOLIN.
An Incident of the Childhood of the
Master Ole Bull.

Master Ole Bull.
Ole Bull. the great violinist, was born
with IL genius for music. To him the
swaying of bIuebelIs, the wind and
rain and waterfalls, the music of birds
and bees-all these were the voices of
nature, and he tried to reproduce them
on his violin.
1t is said that the musicians first
violin was given him by an uncle when
he was but four years old, and his de-
light at the present knew no bounds.
.eMy father wanted me to be minis
ter said he in telling the story many
years after. "and l thought / must do
as he wished. But when l was eight
wears old he bought me a new violin
and arranged to have me study under
d teacher for he said, a minister
ought to know a little about music
Ihat night I could not sleep, | rose
III the night to get peep at the pre-
cious violin. 1t was so red, and the
pretty pearl screws did smile at me so.
| pinched the strings just little with
my fingers, and it smiled at me more
and more l took up the bow and
looked at it. It said to me it would be
pleased to have me try it across the
strings So l did try it just a very,
very little, and it did play so softly. /
forgot that it was midnight and every
body asleep. and the next minute | felt
my fathers whip across my shoulders.
My little red violin dropped on the floor
and was broken. l did weep very much
for it, but it did no good. They did
have a doctor to it the next day, but it
never recovered it's health = Detroit

FROM RICHMOND
BAKING COMPANY.

The management Of. the. Richmond
Baking company wishing to advance
the modern ideas Of bread making, a
policy they have been pursuing III
the different departments Of their es-
tablishment, found it absolutely nee
essary to change the bread shop
from day work to night work, and,
by so doing, enables Us to give oul
customers in Richmond fresh, warm
bread and rolls for breakfast, and
the early morning trade, as well as
being III position to compete with
Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Dayton,
with our early morning shipments,
shipping warm bread on the first
trains leaving Richmond, to our al
ready great number Of customers in
the surrounding towns.
In deciding to make this change,
we did not feel that there would be
any cause for grievance with our
bread bakers, in fact, did not antici-
pate any trouble, nor did we violate
the constitution or bylaws of the
Bakers union.
In ninety per cent Of the modern
bakeries of the country, bread is
baked at night, giving a decided adj
vantage to the consumer, enabling
them to buy the freshest product pos
sible to obtain. A great number Of
these shops are union shops, and
there is not the least objection to
night work
Under the circumstances, we felt
the bread bakers of our shop, and,
should they have had any particular
objection to working at night, we
would have filled their places with
union men who have never known
anything but night work, and con
tinued to run a strictly union fac
tory, avoiding any difficulty.
For some reason, not satisfactorily
bakers union Of Richmond, took ex-
ceptions to our policy, and called the
men out, and at the same time, they
have allowed one of the union baker
les in Richmond to work at night
ever since the organization Of their
union.
We have quite a large foreign
bread business, making daily ship
ments to a number of Indiana and
Ohio towns, and, as before stated.
coming in competition with other
cities, and we felt it was absolutely
necessary to make the change in jus
tice to ourselves, as we'll as to the
financial interests Of the Richmond
Baking company IN general.
We do not believe any fair mind
ed citizen will condemn our policy.
We have not acted unfairly in any
sense Of the word.
Out of all the union employees in
our plant, only five left their work.
and we have their positions filed
with practical men, and are running
to our full capacity in every depart
ment, and have not lost an hours
time on account of their action. We
| explained our position and the ex-
act cause for the change to our bread
bakers, and feel that it should have
remained personal matter, and we
were forced to import new men in
our shop to get the desired results.
