The Red Petticont.

Unto all railroad engineers the red
petticoat Is a sacred thing. Upon
scores of occasions red petticoats have
been the means Of saving trains from
being wrecked. Invariably the woman
who discovers a washout or a collaps-
ed bridge or an obstruction on the
tract wears n red p%etticoat. There
may be a psychological explanation Of
this remarkable fact. but Whether
there Is or not the brave woman al
ways manages during the one minute
and tw~enty-seven seconds that must
elapse before the arrival OF the light
ming express to get her red p%etticoat
off and wave 1t frantically. thus warn

A writer in the London Chronicle
says: "a few years ago-it may be the
same today-the popular markets of
the poorer quarters of Rome and even
the stalls of the butchers near the
Pantheon showed rows and rows OF
cats hung up for sale. with the skins
off. but the tails carefully left on to
show that they were not rabbits, for
an old fashioned Italian does not think
q rabbit quite fit for human food. nor
will any italian peasant eat the meat
Of sheep. Anything winged. however, is
his ~favorite food. Like the lady in
Boccaccio's story. he eats u parrot
when he can get one"

FnvorIte J.pnne.e Card Game.


A favorite card game of the Japanese
Is played as follows: One hundred well
known proverbs are selected, each di-
vlded into w parts and each part
printed on n separate card. The host
OF the evening has the hundred first
halves, which he reads aloud, one by
one. the hundred second halves are
dealt to the other players. who place
their hands face upward on the "tata-
NIL" or thick mat OF rice straw, on
which they sit. AS the first half of
any proverb is read the holder of the
second half throws it out. or II he sees
1t unnoticed among his neighbours
cards seize It and gives him one of
his own. The player who is first ..out"
wins. 1t Is a very simple game, but 1t
affords great entertainment to he
players, for the quicksighted and keen
witted are constantly Selling the cards
OF their duller and slower ~neighbors.
and this leads to much laughter and
many good natured sarcasms.-West-
minister Gazette.

a wonderful stlmulant on his imagina-

MINUTES OF LABOR
UNION INTRODUCED.
Trial Now on in New Brunswick Between Local
Firm and Brickayers Of this City Attracting
Much Attention Witnesses Called and
Details Brought Out.
S6ecial 10 the Evening Ne7Os

,Sbecfdt 10 the EVeHfng Ne70S,
New Brunswick Apr. 19:-The dam
age suit between Dressler and Hol-
lander and the five members of the
Perth Amboy Bricklayers ana Plas-
terers Union No. 27, was continued
at O'Clock this afternoon, there be-
ing no morning session, owing to the
fact that Justice Fort had to open the
Somerset Circuit in the place of JUS
tic Garretson, who is i'll.
Several witnesses were called yes
terday afternoon, chief among them
being Leonard Cosgrove of the union
to which the defendants belong and
Emil Koyen, secretary of the associa-
tion to which the plaintiffs belong.
The two secretaries told of the &C.
tion taken by both bodies IN the con-
troversy between the parties at issue
and the minutes of both organizations
we're read from where action was
taken at the meetings held.
The constitution and bylaws OF the
Perth Amboy Bricklayers' Union was
introduced and also that of the Inter-
national Union. The admission OF
both into evidence was opposed by the
counsel for the defense at this time
and Justice Fort ruled them out tenn
porarily.
Other witnesses called we're Frank
D. Reed, of the bricklayers' union,
Thorwald Momburg, who was en-
ployed on the Oertel building after
his brother had been given the con-
tract which the plaintiffs were forced
by the union to give up. Hans Grei-
sen, who received n notice from the
union of the plaintiffs being on the
unfair list, and Walter Martin, who
was called to give a conversation,
were both OH the stand.
AS has been told in the News, the
trouble started when the firm was
building for Julius Simmins. William
Sellers says he saw masons at work
at 40 O'Clock in the morning, when
the union hours began at o'clock
He called the men off and words fol-
lowed between he and Dressler. The
union fined the contractors $50 or
would accept an apology instead OF
the money. The alleged boycott fol-
lowed and the contractors claim that
while in 1901 they did $4,000, worth OF
business, in 1908 they did but $l44
worth.

Fire Discovered by Neighbor
About z O'Clock in the
Morning.
BOX Sc WAS SOUNDED.
Fremen Made Short Work of 1t When they
Arrived-FIames Started on a Shelf
Under Which was a Pile of Kindling
wood-Proprietor Has No Idea How the
Fire Originated.

About $500 damage was done in the
saloon of John Haffner, at 90 Charles
street, by fire which is very mys-
terious in many respects. The place
is rented by Haffner to Anton Seiboth,
who lives next door.
The latter went to bed last night
shortly after II o'clock. About 2
O'Clock he was awakened by Joseph
Hovanecz, who lives across the street.
He saw smoke coming from cellar
window in Seiboth's place. The lat
ter arose and ran to the cellar. When
he opened the door Mt the head of the
cellar stairs, he found the place afire
IN several spots. The blaze quickly
spread to the floor of the barroom
above.
Meanwhile an alarm had been
sounded from box Sc. at Hall avenue
and Charles street. When the firemen
reached the scene, it did not take
very long to extinguish the blaze, the
damage being done mostly by water.
The saloon and the living rooms of
the proprietor next door were gutted.
No one occupies the apartments over
the barroom.
Seiboth told News reporter this
morning that he had no idea as to
how the fire was caused. He said that
there had been no stove or furnace
burning in the cellar all during the
winter. The or iginal blaze was in a
shelf, under which stood pile Of
kindling wool The shelf, which is
but few inches from the window
through which the smoke escaped. is
charred, as is the surrounding wood
work. The loss was fully covered by
insurance, Seiboth holding d $1,000
policy on the place.
