The teamsters' strike in Chicago
is assuming ugly proportions. shop
pers are attacked in the streets ana
forced to submit to an inspection Of
their bundles. cab drivers are attack
ed if they deliver passengers to any
of the retail stores along State street,
the supply OF coal is about exhaust
ed and fresh vegetables cannot be
received or delivered Thirty per
sons were injured Tuesday and sew
eral killed, Chicago appears to be
a hotbed for labor troubles. The
labor trusts demand the right to con-
troll the direction of business in which
they are employed and when they
cannot do so they resort to all class
es of violence. The labor problem is
one OF the grave problems Of this
age In its essential principles the
labor trust is no better than the
commercial trust. The one coerces
by violence. the other by starvation.
The commercial trust Is an outgrowth
to large extent OF the labor trust
and one is just as vicious IN princi-
pie as the other Organized labor
is coming 10 be organized anarchy
Organized capital is coming TO be
organized robbery A strong hand
must be- used Ia dealing with both.
Each threaten The very well being Of
the nation itself.

The Bishops Mistake.

of the South. Two young mountain.
GERS. proud parents CT lusty young.
ster. presented themselves before the
bishop to have the child christened.
The bishop asked: What name?"
The father of the chile replied:
'Beelzebub."
"No?" exclaimed the bishop, amazed
that the Prince of Darkness should be
so honored. mo, we'll call the child
John. John is good name"
Whereupon he continued rapidly
with the Il baptize thee. John" He
signed with the sign of the cross and
dismissed the parents.
They had become more and more
confused under the unwonted solem-
nifty of the unfamiliar ritual. The
father stood on one foot, shifting his
weight to the other; the mother was
equally disturbed.
When the two reached the door OF
the church the father turned, and at
last finding his voice. called back to-
ward the rude chancel: Mister
Bishop. dis heah's gal baby!"-The

CHOOSING a coat.of.Arms.

Senator Depew Is telling with gusto

HERoIsM IN EVERYDAY LIFE.
There Displayed in Higher Form Than
on the Battlefield.

Prof. William James of Harvard uni
verslty relates that upon a certain
journey he was questioning with him
self whether or not the higher hero
ism OF life was passing out Of human
society; and that at the very moment,
he looked from the car window and
suddenly got sight of a number of
workmen performing some task on the
dizzy ledge of an iron construction at
n great height, says Success. This at
once brought to his mind a sense of
the everyday bravery of men in every
day occupations. 1t flashed upon him
on the instant that the true heroism
of life is found not only on the day
of battle and in desperate adventures,
but also in building every bridge. or
in the ordinary day-byday service Of
the world, whether of the sailor upon
his deck, the brakeman upon his train,
the lumberman upon his raft, or wher-
ever else men are at work. "As l
awoke to this unidealized heroic life
around me-" he says, the scales
seemed to fall from my eyes. and a
wave of sympathy greater than had
ever before felt with the common life
of common men began to fill my soul"

True Delicacy.

Adrian Farley. the noted portrait
painter, was talking in his New York
studio about delicacy.
Il was very poor in my YOUTH" he
said, but despite poverty. /
always managed to be delicate. tact
full and polite, often had to put off
creditors. often had to do many
other disagreeable things. but I al
ways did them in delicate way.
"Once, for instance. ordered five
cent plate of soup in Bowery res.
taurant. When the waitress brought
this soup to me Its condition was such
that l felt called upon to rebuke her.
I couched my rebuke in delicate
terms.
Emma said. taking something
out of the soup and holding It up be-

this remembrance, but next time kind

he replied in letter, setting forth
the contents of the various volumes
