FIRM ASKS POLICE AID
ROBITSHEK, FRANK & HELLER
SEEK PROTECTION AGAINST
DEMONSTRATIONS BY STRIK-
ING EMPLOYEES.

Police intervention has been de-
manded by the manufacturing firm Of
Robitshek,. Frank G. Heller to prevent
a repetition of the scenes which fol-
lowed the close of the days work yes
terday., gtf ,- sleH
Some 100 girls and men, strikers
and sympathizers, ljammed around the
factory door at Fourth street and First
avenue N and hooted and jeered at
the strike breakers Qas they left the
building last night" This demonstra-
ton was not',regarded as sufficient for
Superintendent H. G. Curtis, for the
crowd followed him DOWN Fourth
street and finally became so threat
ening that Curtis broke thru the
Gordon and escaped thru the swinging
doors Of saloon into the Hyser hotel
barber shop, where the pursuers left
him.
With the exception Of S. j. Stern,
the national organizer from Chicago,
and several other plucky ones, the
pickets were allowed to stay in out of
the cold this morning. AS the strike
breakers eat their lunch in the fac
tory, there is no opportunity for a
noon hour demonstration and the
strikers are able to expend their entire
energy on the closing hour exodus.

MARBLES SHOW
SPRING IS NEAR.
|sCHOOLBOYs FURNISH EVIDENCE
OF WINTERS END.
Game Has Now Been Played Nearly
Il Week by Minneapolis Youngsters
-"Flipping at a Copper Is a Fa-
vorite Game-Marbles Will Be the
Great Sport This Year.

Spring is not afar off. Weather
forecasts Of all kinds. including the
ground hog, are obliged to stand aside.
The schoolboys are playing marbles
and it is a sign not to be disputed.
The department of agriculture may
produce voluninous statistics to show
when spring is due but the boy knows
tho he don't know why. He simply
feels spring in his veins and in his
bones. Then he digs down into the old
tobacco sack and gets out what mar
bles he had left from the last game of
keeps Of the fall before.
For almost a week marbles have
been played by the schoolboys of Min
neapolis. There has been little dirt in
sight, so the boys played on the clean
concrete walks. The concrete is
smooth and affords poor place for
the keeps" ring. The jack knives
the concrete, and the game proceeded.
"Flipping at a copper" is the favor
ite game this year. The banker of
the game leans copper cent up
against small peg. The players ar
range themselves ten feet away from
the copper and "shoot" at it. The
banker takes for his own every mar
BILE which misses the cent. The boy
whoseaim is true gets the cent if he
succeeds IN k1lOCklllS IL IiOul lie pcs.
To outward appearances the banker
has the "long odds" of the game, but
the boys never tire of shooting
brownies at the cent. The regula-
ton game of "chuck for brownies" is
also much in favor.
The stores near the schools report
that marbles will be the vogue with
rising America this year. Last year II
was 'muble-the-peg," and next year II
is expected that tops will be regarded
with favor. These amusements take
turns regularly and this is marble
year. Balls are a drug on the market
as yet but those who know boys and
the ways of boys are banking on al
early spring as a result of the games
now to be seen in progress near every
schOolhouse. '.

TWO DAYS. GRIEF
FOR MA.IN.LAW
St. Paul's School Board Schedule
of Absences for Teachers
in Mourning.

Mourning for departed relatives is
to be regulated. by schedule in the ST.
Paul schools. Presumably the teach
ers have in the past been taking ad-
vantage of the death Of relatives to
extend their leaves of absence unrea-
sonably, for the school board yester-
day adopted a comprehensive schedule
governing the number Of days during
which teachers may remain away from
school. The much-abused mother-in-
law is shown the same lack of con-
sideration that she receives from the
jokesmiths, and the mourning period
in her case is limited to two days;
but at that, the mother-in-law is
shown as much honor as nephews,
nieces, uncles, aunts and grandpar-
ents.
Fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters,
sons or daughters; when dead, bring
the teachers flve-day leaves of alb
sence. Cousins, however, do not count
in the least, and apparently neither
do husbands and wives.

FEE LOOKED TOO BIG
Youth Unwilling to Pay SO Cents for "FIrs
Papers,"

Youth Unwilling to Pay so Cents for "Flrst
Papers,"
American citizenship does not look as
large as 80 cents to one young man who
recently applied for his first papers at the
office of the clerk of the federal court.
Miss Noonan administered the oath of al
legiance and filed out all necessary pa
pers. The embryo citizen was breathing
patriotic sentiments until Informed that
the fee for issuing first papers was SO
cents.
Then his patriotism underwent chilling
process. The fifty cents were declared to
be tangible while citizenship was some-
thing to be enjoyed in campaign time only.
The young man had attempted to enlist in
the army and had been sent to the federal
court to take the first steps toward citi-
zenship. His natural thrift and economy
not only robbed the republic Of citizen
but of soldier as well.
