day there broke into his mind new
thought: why should not God care for
the people in that other city just as well
as He does for the people in this city?
Why should Jerusalem be any more ia,
vored than Nineveh? The people are not
Jews, but why should God not care for
them just as well as if they were Jews?
Why should there not be brotherhood of
mankind stronger than all the limits OF
national and family prejudice? Why not: -
That thought came to Jonah like a voice
which seemed to say to him, Then, Jonah,
why don't you 20 and tell them about
God? Why don't you 90 and tell them
they may have Gods favor as well as other
people," This thought so burned itself
into Jonah's mind and heart that he felt
it must be Gods will also to bless other
people beside Jews. But Jonah being
dyed-in-the-wool Jew could not tolerate
that He therefore said, Now. if / get
out of the country for a while this thought
will leave me, for God is not everywhere
to press it upon me as He is in Israel"
He did no: care very much where he went
if only he could get away from that voice.
The voice troubled him. He felt that
voice was calling him to do something he
was sure was right, but he did not wish to
do it. This is the sphere in which we so
often are Jonahs. That voice We have al
ways heard, and like Jonah we have tried
to stihe it. Yea, we get just as angry with
God and our friends when they dare to
keep suggesting it to US; we do not want
want to do it, Jonah, therefore, fed. He
did not care where. That ship going to
Tarshish was opportune. 1t made him de-
eide that the safest place for him would be
at sea. God was never known to have spo-
ken to Jew on the sea. And so now Jo-
nah felt he would be safe from God and
that voice That is why he so rapidly and
peacefully got asleep.
Now that is just why storm was neces.

BUTCHERS STRIKE RENEWED,
NOrkmen Claim Packers Failed to Carry
Out Terms OF Agreement

CHICAGO, July 22.-The stocky ards
strike was declared on again this
morning. When the butchers return
ed to work they found conditions
which prevented many getting employ.
ment and other alleged discrimina'
tions, and President Donnelly prompt
ly called the strike on again.
Today 5000 cattle butchers reported
at the stoczy ards here for work. Only
half OF them were given places. There.
upon all refused TO work. They re.
ported in body at their headouar-
ters.
The strikers, when they appeared at
the packing houses, carried their
tools and overalls and were in fine
humor. When the men found that the
packers expected to take back only
small proportion OF the men, the
smiles BANGED to frowns. A commit
tee was quickly appointed and was
sent to interview the packing house
uperintendents. The committee re.
turned with long faces and reported
the situation. Howls of rage went up
and the packers were cursed roundl:.
Then the great army Of strikers turned
and filed out of the yards.
Reports We're circulated this after
noon that that the packers had de-
cided TO yield not a whit to the strik.
ers and 10 meet continued shutdown

skilled non-union men can be Obtained
to operate on a large scale,
The reason for this action is that
the packers have found it too expen.
sive and wasteful to attempt operating
small killing gangs and have deter
mined, If the strikers insist on hold
ing out, to suspend killing operations
in all the plants affected by the strike.
The packers, It's stated, will continue
handling products on hand. Work in
the smoking and canning departments
will also be continued, but no killing
be done under the adverse conditions
which have existed since the beginning
of the strike.
The first rioting of the day came
when Frank Miller was set upon by a
crowd OF strike sympathizers. They
beat him SO badly that at the hospital
where he was taken there was little
chance of recovery.

Butler Charged With Bribery.

ST. LOUIS. July 22.-Col. Edward
Butler, prominent local politician,
was indicted today by the grand jury
on the charge of bribing a witness.
The indictment grows out of the con-
fession Of Charles F. Kelly, former
member of the house of delegates who
says that Butler gave him SIS 900 for
leaving the country and staying away
until the bribe givers, against whom
he had damaging evidence, were pro-
tected by the statute of limitation.
1t is understood that Butler has
already given bond to answer to the
charge. The expected indictment
against politician close TO Butler
and against "the man higher up,'
who also figured in the confessions Of
Kelly and former Delegate Charles A.
Guttke were not returned.

NOn-CniOn Men Assaulted.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, July 2l.-A riot
call was turned in from the stocky ards
at o'clock tonight, and every avail
able policeman is on duty endeavoring
70 control freuzieu Iuelnb bers Of the Ia
Dor unions who went out on strike sew
eral days ago. The packers are not
scharging the non-union men fast
enough to suit the strikers. Tonight
the managers of all the packing houses
in South ST. Joseph notified the union
men that but 60 per cent of the strikers
will be put to work tomorrow. The
strikers say the packers are endeavor-
ing to hold all non-union men, and
that all of the union men cannot get
back to work if the packers are per.
mitted to carry out their plans.
Many non-union men who appeared
in the streets tonight were assaulted
and apparently there was a concerted
effort to drive them from the plants.
