FROM sunny ITALY.
The Class of Immigrants That
Land Is Sending Us.
A. a Glass They Do Not Take Kindly
to Agricultural Pursuits, But
Flock to the Cities and Con-
struc1iOn Camps.

During 1909 Italy sert to cur shores
more immigrants than any other nation.
In what portions Of our country do the
sons and daughters of that sunny land
settle, how do they earn their daily
bread, and what sort of folk are they,
anyway?
New York and Pennsylvania prove
specially attractive states. In these two
dwell half the whole number of Italians
seeking livelihood here. New Jersey
stands next, then come Massachusetts,
Illinois, California, Connecticut and
Louisiana But they are found in almost
every state of the union, in numbers
ranging from the 28 enumerated in Okla
homa Census of 1900 to the 1872, 248 of
New York. At first thought one might
suppose our semitropical sections would
prove most inviting to the exiles from
Italy, but figures do not bear this out.
Louisiana has 1900 Italians; Illinois,
over $4,000; California, $4,000, to Penn
sylvania's $4,000; in Florida there are
about 1900; in Ohio, over II 900; in Ala
bama, something like 900; in Colorado
River Falls journal. [volume] (River Falls, Pierce County, Wis.) 1872-2019, 1904-02-04

almost 1000. The total number of Ital-
ians given in the United States for 1900
was 484, 207.
Steamship companies spread abroad
in Italy most alluring posters and liter
ature in regard to the wonderful land
across the water, and the oyercrowded
peasants, hopefully seek the golden
shore Most of the Italian emigrants
are small farmers, yet when they ar
rive here they seldom journey to the
great western country, but herd in the
already crowded eastern cities. On
landing, they are taken in hand by a
"Dadrone," or boss, who promises them
pleasant work, free lodgings, and fine
pay; and the newcomer sets forth with
the belief that fortune is already his
The reality is the usual accompaniment
of contract labor; unsanitary, over
crowded lodgings, tyrannical guards;
pay that is scarcely living wage.
For the good of the immigrants, as
well as for helping solve the problem of
congested populatiOn-and also in the
interests of peace-it is to be hoped the
Italian will be led to return to agricul-
ture, and escape the evils of the pa
drone system. AS writer in recent
number of the Chautauquan we'll puts it,:
The southern Italian, who is untamed,
will do we'll to raise fruit in the south
ern states, instead of congesting in a
mob at New Orleans"
Italians are very clannish, and
also passiorately loyal to customs of
the home country. In any city where
they abound, their section is almost as
foreign, as characteristic, as would be a
bit of Italy itself. In spite of their quick
ness to avenge an insult their readi-
ness with the dagger they are friendly
people. and in their poverty enjoy con-
siderable social life. 1t is significant
fact that there is an increasing number
of women and children coming over with
the Italian men, meaning that the lat
ter has come to stay, where once he

merely came to accumulate enough to
go back to the girl left behind.
Formerly our Immigration problem
had TO 90 with the Germans and the
Irish; now it is with very different
proposition, the Italian, the Jew and
the Slav. But as most of our immi-
grants are OF the peasant class, country
folk, we 90 not have to encounter q
people given over to city vices; rather
simple folk not hardened, eager to learn
and willing to work, and of the strictest
economy. That they may send money
to the over-taxed kin at home. they will
live on nothing; sleep three in a bed,
subsist on the poor Italian food. That
is. those born in the old country will do
this; the second generation has a differ
ent standard of living, has been greatly
influenced by the American atmosphere
in which it has spent all its days. by the
American public school.
The authors of Italy To-Day" say
the Italian immigrant is handicapped
in the United States, where his poverty
and illiteracy are against him in the
fierce competition with immigrants of a
better class, the German, for instance.
Perhaps so per cent. of the Italian men
here rank as unskilled laborers. al
though in their own country they were
counted artisans or farmers. Next in
number to the day La orers come those
engaged in the fruit business, and the
occupation of street musician continue
popular with them.

THE KING OF BELLS
One Of the Sights Looked For by
Tourists in Moscow.
Its History Dates Back to the Six
teenth Century-Broken and Re-
cast Number of Times
Weighs 444, 900 Pounds.

Means of rapid communication have
of recent years removed much of the
charm and mystery that for centuries
hung over Russia and especially Mos
cow, with it's quaint architecture. Half
a century ago it was thought that to
see Moscow was to see the last corner
of the world, but to-day this city of the
north is on the itinery of every globe
trotting tourist, and for those not so
fortunate as to have visited this an
Gent seat of Muscovite rule, the mod
ern book and magazine writers have
offered SO many descriptions as to tear
from it every remaining vestage OF
mystery, though not of it's charm. One
of the first object the tourist in Mos
cow seeks for is the Great Bell, famed
in legend and history.
On a granite pedestal at the foot of
| the belfry tower of Ivan the Great, in
the Kremlin, stands the Tsar Kolokol,
the King of Bells. In the sixteenth
century the art of casting bells was
brought to perfection in Russia, and
Olcarius, secretary to Dutch embassy,
to Moscow in 1886, asserts that a great
bell was cast in the reign of Boris God
unof. During a fire in the reign of
Alexis this bell fell to the ground and
was broken. In 1854 it was recast and
weighed 288,O00 pounds. In 1874 it was
suspended from a wooden beam at the
foot of the tower, from whence it fell
on June 10, 1905, during a fire. It's
fragments lay on the ground until the
reign of the Empress Anne, by whose
orders it was again recast in 1893 by
the bellfounder Ivan Matorine. Owing
to the falling of some heavy rafters
during yet another fire in 1877, the bell
fell a height of Is feet, buried itself in
the ground. and a piece was knocked
out of its side. According to some ac-
counts, this was owing to an imparfec-
tion in the metal, caused by jewels and
other treasures having been thrown
into the liquid metal by the ladies of
Moscow. During the reign of Nicholas
l., in the year 1899. the architect of st.
Isaac's cathedral at st. Petersburg, M.
de Montferrand, took upon himself the
difficult task of raising the bell, and
completed the operation with much
skill. It's weight at present is 444 900
pounds, it's height from the top of the
ball and cross placed upon it by the or
der of the Emperor Nicholas l. is 26

Words and Ideas.

Definite words are necessary, says
Engineering Record. for the expression
of definite ideas. Hence scientific terms
have to be employed. A term has one
definite meaning which does not change
with time. The rush of affairs drifts
words from their original meanings, as
ships drag their anchors in gale, but
terms sheltered from common use hold
to their moorings forever. The word
let, for example, has drifted in 200
years from meaning hinder until now
it means permit; but the term bisect
has remained unaltered in significance
for centuries.

Fatal Accident at Independence Mine
at Victor, Col.
Victor, Col, Jan. 27.-As the result
of an accident that occurred about
three o'clock Tuesday morning in the
Stratton Independence mine, located
near the center of this city, Is men are
dead and one other severely injured.

Injured: James Bullock, body
bruised and scalp wounds.
Hurled to Their Death.
In the main shaft six men were be-
ing hoisted in cage from the sixth,
cage reached the surface the engineer,
for some unexplained reason, was I'M
able to stop the engine and the cage
with it's load of human freight was
drawn up into the gallows' frame,
where it became lodged temporarily.
The strain on the cable finally caused
it to part, and the cage, released, shot
down the shaft with terrific speed.
Two of the occupants, L. P. Johnson
and James Bullock, had become entan-
gled in the timber rods near the top
of the gallows frame. Jackson was
crushed to death by the sheave wheel
falling upon him, while Bullock had
a marvellous escape from death, but
received painful injuries and was res
cued from his perilous position. The
other IA men were hurled to death
down the 1,50O-foot shaft.
Only One Identified.
Victor, Col, Jan. 28.-Fearfully mu-
tilated and unacceptable, the bodies
of the IA miners who fell with the cage
$500 feet down the shaft of the Stratton
independence mine on Tuesday are
lying on two rows of benches in car
penter shop near the shafthouse Only
one of the victims, Edwin Twiggs, was
recognizable from his features There
was not a particle of clothing on any
of the bodies or dismembered limbs
when recovered from the bottom of the
shaft
Brownsville, Pa, Jan. 29.-Four
men, all foreigners, were crushed to
death Thursday in a new air shaft of
the Sriar Hill Coal company near here
The shaft was 6S5 feet deep and the
men were being lowered in a bucket
when a 40O-DOund niIOt weight broke
precipitating the bucket and men to
the bottom. The heavy weight falling
on them crushed the men beyond rec
ognition.
The men were in the employ of Con-
tractor Samuel Henry, of Connellsville,
Pa, Who was sinking the shaft. The
Briar Hill company is owned by the
Republic Iron & Steel company. 1t is
claimed by the officials that the acct
dent was due to the failure of the men
to remove the weight from the lever
before starting down.

ness is two feet, and the weight of the
broken piece about IL tons. It bears
the following inscription, the dates of
which do not agree with those cited
above from "Murray's Guide to Rus
sia:"
alexis Mikhailovitch, of happy
memory, Autocrat of Great and Little
Russia and White Russia, ordered a
copper bell, weighing 5000 pounds, to
be cast for the Cathedral of the Pure
and Glorious Assumption of the Vir-
gin in the year 1852 of the Creation of
the World and 1916 Of the birth of our
Lord Jesus Christ. This bell was in
use from the year 7167 of the Creation
OF the World, A. D., 1901, in which
year, on June 10, it was damaged in a
great fire which ragged in the Kremlin:
it was mute until the year 1889 of the
Creation, A D. 1875. The All Powerful
and Glorious Empress Anna Ivanovna
caused the metal of the old bell, weigh
ing 5000 pools, to be recast, to the
Glory of God and the Holy Trinity and
in honor of the Holy Virgin of the Ca
thedral of her Glorious Assumption.
and added 1000 pools of new ma
terial; the year = of the Creation,
A. D. 173-, being the fourth year of
Her Majesty's glorious reign"
The portion of the square at the foot
of the belfry of Ivan, where the bell
now stands, is named after HIM. e.,
Ivanovskaia. The Oukases (Edicts) of
the Tsars were formerly publicly pro-
claimed here.
