HELD UP FRINGE.
New York Dentist Charged eI,000 For
 Twelve Hours Work.


 New York, Nov. 21.--Prince Louis's strenuous life in America included sev. eral extra strenuous hours in a den lists chair and that particular part of his program proved costly. The to- tai time spent with the dentist was twelve hours. according to a friend of the Prince, and the bill was $1,000 When the bill was presented the Prince said nothing but gave his check for the amount. Later in the day, however, he showed the receipt to his friend, Col. Robert M. Thompson, who declared that 1t was pretty steep even for a New York dentist
 The Prince paid the bill as soon as 1t was presented" said Colonel Thompson last night, and the matter would have ended there had I not seen the amount charged. told the Prince what I thought about it and his Brit ish sense of fair play caused him to make a protest. A bill as presented was not itemized. and the Prince at my suggestion wrote the dentist that an itemized bill be sent to Sir Percy Sanderson. the British Consul General. All further action will be in Sir Percy s hands.
 The work done by the dentist con- sisted in filling four teeth and putting in an artificial one.'
 The dentist who did the work for the Prince was not at home to visitors last night. Earlier in the day he is re- ported to have declined to discuss the matter beyond saying that a bill had been presented and paid.

CARS FAILED TO RUN
BREAKDOwN AT WATER TOWER
 COMPANYps PLANT.
Electricity Was Be1nG Furniehea . Montgonery Ead While Linemen Were wording Near Tnllassee
 --Down Four Heurs.

o~ From 11:2o o'clock until | o'clock
 yesterday. Montgomery was without street car service.
 There was no strike of union motor men and conductors to prevent the cars from operating for there are nc organizations of street car men In Montgomery. A breskdown at the steam plant of the Montgomery Light and Water Power Company in Mont gomery, which gives power for the street cars to operate, was the cause of failure of both the Montgomery Street Railway and the Montgomery Traction Company to do business for four hours.
 The length of the period of non -ac- tivity on the part of the car lines was due to a combination of circumstances Extensive improvements in the way of new poles and new wires are being made on the transmission line of the Montgomery Light and Water Power Company, from the hydraulic station at Tallassee to Montgomery. Accord ing1y no power was received yesterday from the immense plant at Tallassee Falls. The power was furnished by the old steam plant in Montgomery. consisting of one big engine and two smaller ones.
 On the line between Mont tgomery and
  and their exact whereabouts was un- known.
 At 11:23 o'clock the governing rod on the big engine at the Montgomery plant broke. This engine furnishes all the power for the street railways, the two smaller engines devoting all their en- ergies to the commercial business of the company
 Under ordinary circumstances this would have caused only two or three | minutes delay The plant at Tallas- see would have been communicated with and the immense power from the harnessed river would have been put in service.
 But the construction gang had to be considered. Somewhere on the line were men, who make the great conven- fences of electricity possible. There were probably linenIen on the poles with wires in their hands. If these wires had been furnished with power from Tallassee, thousands of volts of electricity would have been sent through their bodies and the Mont gomery Light and Water Power Com pany would have been responsible for the lives of these men.
 The gang had to be communicated with and this took several hours. Then the power was thrown on and the cars again started running.
 Happening as 1t did at midday and in the early part of the afternoon, when traffic is largest on the street railways, great inconvenience was suffered by pedestrians, merchants and the railway companies. Motormen sat by their un- responsive controllers and whfstled while conductors nodded near their si- lent registers.
 R. J. Chambers, President of the Montgomery Light and Water Power Company. said that he deeply regretted sthe accident but 1t was choice with him of running cars in a few minutes and risking the lives of his employees or making people walk for several hours. It was Hobson's choice with him.
 The Montgomery plant will be rum ming today and the construction gang will again begin work on the trans mission line.

Warm Discussion Arises over the Ln- bor Situation in Colorado---Max Hayes Makes Speech Defena@
 tnG S0efnfinrs

Pittsburg. Nov. 21.--At the morning session of the American Federation oi Labor. Frank K. Foster of Boston Secretary of the Committee on Presi. dent Gompers's report. read supple mentary report.
 The matter of the eight-hour day fol the union printers was endorsed and the executive council in giving the printers moral aid and financial sup. port was commended. The council was instructed to continue their aid to the printers if necessary after January i, 1906
 The Committee reported that the eight-hour day for printers is in force in s26S cities and towns in ei1is country and Canada. An assessment of cents member was ordered by the Fedora tion to aid the printers in their con- test.
 This assessment is expected to yield about S0.000.. The 50 cent assessment made by the international Typographi- cal Union has been endorsed by that body by vote of 25.s4s to 6.sS4. Dell egate Johannsen of Chicago. made q severe attack on the industrial Work CTS of the World, characteriziuE them as enemies of free speech and free kov- ernment He resented the imputation that the American Federation of La Dor was the American Federation of "grafters" as the Industrial Workers of the World called the Federation.
 Delegate Goldstein of Boston fol- lowed the speaker. with an address in which he condemned the socialists for their inconsistency and ill-tined att tack on the Federation of Labor, and the officers.
 Victor L.. Berger of Milwaukee re- piled to the two addresses in a witty speech and said the socialists Plumber. ing about 10.00o.000 in this country were the night watchers of the Aneri- can Federation of Labor.s
 Max s. Hayes of Cleveland. O.. one of the champions of socialism, followed with hot speech, defending the so- cialist party
 Delegate Hayes contended that be. cause a few hundred socialists parttci- pated in the formation of the Tndus- trial Workers of the World, 1t was moi justice to criticise the many socialists now paying dues as members of the American Federation Of Labor.
 A warm discussion arose over the Colorado situation and the Western Federation of Miners. recommeflda- tion was presented that the Executive Council insist upon the Western Fed eration of Miners either carrying out the purpose for which much financial aid was contributed, which was to take the cases 10 the highest courts, or give to the Executive Council an ac-

 While Hutton and Barrett were in London on one occasion a son was born to Millet, and they both accompanied the happy father to the vestry house of St. Mary,s, Kensington, to have it's birth duly registered. The usual uues- tions were asked and answered and finally the name of the child.
 "Lawrence,Y said the father.

 Pardon me, L-a-u-r-e-n-c-e, if you please. said Hutton. with the accent on the "u."

 "L-a-u. insisted Hutton, and the poor official laid down his pen in amazement.
 The clerk was on the point of faint ing or calling the police, continues MT. Hutton, when Millet, in his quiet way, came to the rescue.

There came a day when the water and food gave out, and I says to Bill, says
 "'Bill, we can go about three days on nothing, and then I shall have to eat you
 ".All right. old ship says he. and there was nothing more to be said about it. Four days passed and then I says to Bill:
 Stand up and see if there's a sail in sight.
 Marry sail says he after look ing around.
 ".All right, old ship; but let me tell you that have just taken big dose of poison. and if you eat me you won't be long after me-"
 And was 1t so?" was asked of Bill's friend.
 Tt was so, sir: and what does Bill do but swell up and die and fall over board, and leave me go on suffering for four days more before a bark sighted and picked me up. Would you have believed there was as mean a man in all this world?"
