Not Think Section Mems Strike
Serious.
Regarding the strike of the Iowa
Central section men, at Gilman, which
was reported in these columns Tues
day, Division Roadmaster j. Laugh
lin says that he does not think the
strike will spread, or that the trouble
will prove at all serious. Two crews,
comprising six men, under the fore
manship of H. Sovig and j. w. Bees
ley are affected. The men are receiv-
ing $1.3O per day, and ask $1.5O. One
crew works out of Gilman toward the
north, and the other toward the south,
both being under the supervision of
the third road division, which is in
charge OF Mr.. Laughlin. Mr.. Laugh
lin says that if the men do not
go back to work he will fill their places
at once with new men. A similar
strike occurred at Clifford and Union
two weeks ago, and the men went back
to work again the next day. Grin
nell section men struck about a month
ago, and they also returned to work
after being off but short time.

make test of the drag a week from
Saturday. If this is done a general in

the farmer chance to see the practi-

REJAnE DANCES cANcAN.

Dining Table.

Actress EIevates Her Heels on Top Of
Dining Table.
New York.-Mme. Rejane, the noted
French actress, danced the cancan on
top of a table at the Hyde 100000 ball
at Sherrys recently.
Statements differ as to how the cpl
sode came about, but all are agreed
upon one point, and that is that Rejane
did climb on top of the table and
dance a cancan which couldn't have
been beaten by any professional dan
Ger at the Moulin Rouge. In fact she
danced 1t with so much abandon and
grace that she successfully effaced all
recollection of Little Egypt" who
had until then had a record for this
sort of specially at Sherry's.
To say the dance of Rejane created
a sensation is putting the facts quite
mildly, but as usually happens in inn
promptu. spontaneous episodes of this
kind, the cancan did not make nearly
as great a stir at the moment as it did
on the following day when the specta-
tors had time to thing it all over in
cold blood.
Rejane, tie French actress. is not
greatly perturbed over the statement
that she danced the cancan on table
at Hyde's costume ball. In an inter-
view she denied the dancing, but said
she can do the dance.
