Ovide ChapdeIaine Taken Into Cus-

 LEICESTER, Mass, Nov. 3O.A~Ovide Chapdelaine, aged fifteen years, is un- der arrest charged with the murder of Mrs. Emma Richard Brigham in the woods near the home of the victim in this town..
 The arrest upon suspicion was made upon the advice of District Attorney Redwood Hoar of Worcester. Chap delaine was closely questioned by the detectives, after which he was taken to Worcester, formally charged with murder and locked up. He will be giv- en hearing today.
 The theory of the police which made Chapdelaine suspect is that the boys father, having been bothered by thefts of wood from his wood lot. placed his son on guard to defend his property and that Mrs. Brigham, who was gath ering hemlock boughs in the vicinity, was mistaken for thief

Quail and gray squirrels were not shot to any extent, the severe storms of last winter destroying large numbers of the former, while many reasons are given for the scarcity of the latter. One of these is the game hog. the hunt CT who does not know when to stop, and one of the other reasons given is l that so many of the old woods where the grays were at one time in abun> dance have fell to the woodchopper' lot. Ruf1ed grouse or partridge, Ial- though not in large focks, have been reported in fair numbers, and some good bags of this greatest of all game birds have been brought in by local hunters. Woodcock have been brought l in by some of the experienced lovers of the dog and gun, but that is all. Rabbits, the close season for which
 does not commence until January l, 1 1905, are reported as very numerous,
 and these bright moonlight nights have lured many of the hunters out in
 search of them. Thanksgiving day. which is generally accepted as the

THE PREMIUM SYSTEM.
It Is an Adaptation of the PernfciOus
 Task Work Plan.

1t Is an Adaptation of the PeFniciOus
 Task Work Plan.
 The premium system so strongly ad- vocated by the National Metal Trades council and other antiunion associa- tions of employers is not likely to find much support among the British trades unionists. By agreement with the Employers federation the Amalgamat- ed Society of Engineers some time ago decided to give the system trial. The trial proved so satisfactory to the em- ployers that they endeavored to extend the operation of the system. There upon the Engineering and Shipbuild- ing Trades federation, which includes twenty seven unions, practically the whole engineering trades outside the A. S. s., promptly appointed commit tee to consider the matter. That com mittee has now reported and condemn ed any attempt to make the system general.
 Briefly put, the system allows the employers to pay bonuses to workmen who hustle" A time limit is fixed for certain job and price calculated on the number of hours it should take. An expert workman who executes the work in less time than the limit re- ceives his regular wages and half wages for every hour he saves on the time fixed. For example, certain job is estimated to take fifty hours. A workman .hustles'' and executes it in forty hours. He therefore receives forty hours pay and half pay for the ten hours he has saved.
 Such system, says the committee of the Engineering and Shipbuilding Trades federation, means that the pace in the workshop is set by the best workman, and the weaker men have to go to the wall. "The system has ab- solutely nothing in it to recommend it, they add. Tt is an adaptation of the most pernicious and degrading con- dition of employment in modern indus trial history, the task work system. It has been the cause of more men being discharged than any strike which has ever taken place in the history of the engineering and shipbuilding trades."- Washington Star.

Recently printed extracts from the diary of Adolf PichleT1 show that that Tyrolean poet did not indorse the popu- lar notion that travelling has an educa- tional value. Most tourists are, in his opinion, guided chiefly by the desire to get good things to eat in the hotels and to fiirt with the foreign girls, and in the end they are surprised to find them selves as much bored as at home.
