Rev. Samuel G. Wilson and his fam.

Everett, Wash, where he is the pas

Mamma and her parents read The

We recall reading an editorial In

that the Negroes made a mistake by
allowing themselves to be used en-
masse as "strike-breakers" at Chicago.
In the present teamsters' strike. II
predicted that as soon as the strike
was broken, there would be no further
use for the colored brother. Events
seem to be justifying that view. The

the city from surrounding States at
the rate Of $50 day to take the place
Of the strikers. The Negroes employ

Italy's Industrial Advance.

Not many people in the United

Italy is advancing in industrial i'm

Italy has in the last ten years shown
as promising development in an in

where in Europe. The never-failing

there q population better fitted to aid
in an Industrial development The peo-
pie are dexterous, quick to learn and
Industrious, and up to the present time
the general wage scale compares ia
Vorably with that Of any competitors
which they have to meet. The result
OF these favorable conditions has been,

cHAMoIs DEFEATS EAGLES.
Warlike Birds Attempt to Destroy
Mountain Creature, But Are
Beaten on.

A desperate combat between two
eagles and a chamois was witnessed
on a snow-covered mountain near Flu
shi one day lately. relates a Geneva
correspondent to the London Express.
One Of the young eagles attacked a
young chamois, when it was charged
by the sire Of the herd, which was
some distance away. At this point an
other eagle appeared, but the chamois
repeatedly beat them both on by fierce
thrusts Of its antlers.
The struggle continued for half an
hour. after which the birds took to
fight. The channels remained immoy-
able with head erect, gazing defiantly
at the soaring birds until they were
lost to sight.
Some sportsmen next day found the
spot where the heroic combat had Ia
ken place Uttered with feathers and
fur, and the snow was splashed with
blood.

some unaccountable reason, deter
mined to go from one pasture to an

necessary to cross the creek on the

flock walked cautiously out on the
weakened ice. When he was about
mid-stream II gave way and he
plunged in. The other sheep, instead

could have done. deliberately. and, as
the lawyers would put 1t, with malice

MORE WOE FOR POLAND.
Her Industries Have Suffered More
from War with Japan Than
Rest Of Russia.

According to United States Com
mercial Agent Harris at Eibenstock,
Germany, the Industries in Russian
Poland have suffered more from the
war. with Japan than any other part
of Russia That is attributed to the
fact that the Polish provinces on the
Vistula manufacture, to a large extent,
certain articles which are dependent
for a market either upon foreign coun-
tries or distant parts of the Russian
empire. One-half of the inhabitants
Of Russian Poland is dependent upon
house industries for q living. These
house industries consist Of the manu-
facture Of gloves. shoes, scarfs, neck
ties, shirts, underwear and ready-made
clothing. There are whole cities in
Poland. as for example Bresiny. In the
district of Piotrkow, which are abso-
lutely dependent upon the making Of
cheap, ready-made clothing for dis
tant markets.
up to the outbreak Of the war"
says the report, Siberia and the Rus
sian possessions on the Pacific were
the best markets for this industry.
To-day there is practically no de-
mand for manufactured goods in any
Russian territory in the far east either
directly or indirectly Influenced by the
war.
Another cause Of the extreme bust
ness depression in Russian Poland is
a too liberal use of the long-credit sys-
tenn, which has been participated in to
the fullest extent by both the manu-
facturer and merchant. At the out
break of the war those manufacturers
who were called upon to meet the de-
mands of their foreign bankers were
compelled to force payments from
their customers. Such procedure has
made it's influence felt among every
class Of the inhabitants.
THE crop failure in the Vistula
provinces in 1904. caused by the long
continued drought, has also produced
much misery among the peasant
classes"
