Labor Day. o'clock on the morn

CLOCK on the MOTH.
ing of Labor Day, the hard labor
ers temporarily rusticating within
these walls received the order to
fall into line. They were marched
to the park, where the band had
preceded them. The order to
"break ranks was given, the mus
ic struck up :'He's Sober Now Like
Kelly Is," and the merry revel
commenced. From all sides came
the cheerful greeting, ''How much
longer you got?" and the response,
"Say. gimme a chew"
It was good weather. There
had been no rain for almost 4S
hours, and the ground was dry
enough to sit on without discom-
fort. Some of the crowd formed
into groups for the purpose of
discussing future plans and ar
ranging to exchange papers, while
others lolled about on the grass
and enjoyed the sunshine and
fresh air. The band played at
short intervals all morning.
Through the efforts of the Dep.
uty, two gastronomic contests of
unusual interest we're inaugurated.
The first was watermelon tourna-
ment between two gentlemen of
color. A big melon was cut in
half, a piece was set in front of
each contestant, the hands of the
latter we're placed behind their
backs, and the two dug in with
their faces. They went at the job
like terriers after rats, and the
way they splashed that melon
around was a caution. The
crowd cheered them on, and for
some time the outcome was doubt
full, but the eight-inch mouth of
SNOWFALL proved too much for his
opponent, and the former won
easily. Then they brushed the
melon seeds out of each others
hair. and shook hands and made
room on the platform for the next
contestants. They were pie-eaters,
five of them, and they also strug-
gled for supremacy unaided by
knife, fork or hands. 1t was evil
dent from the beginning that the
championship lay between two
men in third grade suits. Their
appetite for pie had been abnor-
mally developed by continued alb
stinence from that delicacy, and
they had no difficulty in out-chew-
ing their opponents. While the
band, led by Mr.. Hewitt, played
"How Dry 1 Am," the hungry
pair Tapped up pie. They
wallowed in it. They ate it in
chunks and IN morsels. They bit
holes in the tin dishes. The other
three gazed in amazement and adj
miration. Never did pie disap-
pear so quickly. It was a dead
heat, and the prize was divided.
When IL o'clock came, the whis-
tie sounded, and the men returned
to the dollhouse for dinner. A
holiday spread was served. After
dinner they went to the cells and
put in the afternoon writing let
ters.

G.. s.

in the United States on
the average are more than
twice those in Belgium, three
times those in Denmark, Germany.
Italy and France, and one and a.
half those in Great Britain. But
just the same we never hear of g.
skilled mechanic from any of these
countries coming over here with
any idea of lettering his condition.
With the wages he gets he can
buy just as much and more than
the American workman. The Euro.
pean sells his labor on the. worlds
market and he is permitted to buy
the necessities of life on the same
plan. Thanks to the protective
tariff, that is a privilege we are
denied. Our unskllled laborers
must, however, compete with every
pauper on the face of the earth.
THERE'S too much talk" said
one of our great men. And
he was right. There is no deny
ing the fact that this country is
flooded with men who can do
nothing but talk. Their jaws wag
at every kind Of provocation, which
is sure sign of weakness. They
never lose an opportunity of open
ing the sluice gates of their minds
and letting out the contents of
their little ponds of nothing. That
they never accomplish anything
makes us appreciate the man who
does things with as little talk as
possible. Such man generally
keeps his mouth shut and attends
to his business without any hur-
rahs. He has knowledge but knows
its value. Therefore he let's it out
only when and where it will do
some good. Being too precious to
waste, it is not kept on tap for
every Tom, Dick and Harry who
comes along and monkeys with the
faucet. Again, it is a we'll known
fact that our greatest men are
those who talk the least. Above
all, they never talk of their own
achievements. They realize that,
after all, they are but factors in
some great plan, and no matter
what they might become there is
always someone who is greater. If
Edison had been content to simply
talk about the great ideas suggest
ed to him by electricity, the incan-
descent light and numerous other
appliances would not owe their
existence to him. If Fulton had
done nothing but chew the rag
about his plans to build and launch
a steamboat, the Clermont never
would have steamed it's successful
way up the Hudson River. Had
Ben Franklin merely talked about
his theories of electricity, he never
would have succeeded in claiming
lightning. Nor would any of the
great achievements in art, science
or mechanics have been realized
if the first crude idea that present
ed itself to the mind of the origi-
nator had not been seized and &C.
ted upon instead of merely talked
about. Many people have bril-
liant ideas and wax highly enthusi-
astic in talking of them, but they
all their force in talk. In
action they fall short and grievous-
ly disappoint friends and teach
ers who have predicted a great
future for them. The man who is
continually talking of his own
or of what he isgoing
to do is generally some third class
upstart whose brains are in his
pockets or on his back. That
