Swiss Immigrants COlonizing.

A colony Of Swiss recently arrived
in the Ozark mountains, and it is said
to be the forerunner Of many large
colonies to follow. The mountains are
attractive to Swiss farmers familiar
with the dairy, poultry and fruit indus
tries in their home uplands.
The Swiss immigrants to the United
States are usually industrious, thrifty,
law abiding and we'll to do. Heretofore
the majority of the immigrants from
Switzerland have found employment In
manufacturing centers and have aided
here in the development of Industries
we'll established in their own country,
as. for instance, clock and watch max
ing, wood carving and silk manufac-
lures. Some are employed in Vine
wards. There are now about 115,OOO
natives of Switzerland In this country,
and the new arrivals the last two years
have been about 10000 at the Atlantic
ports. There are but few Swiss on the
Pacific coast.

NoveHsts Lacking In Courage.

Novelists Lacking In Courage.
Comparing the novelists Of this and
an earlier generation James Lane Al
len writes in a recent review as fol-
lows:
For some reason the great American
novels Of our generation as compared
with the greatest English written novels
Of the past-where are they? There Is
some lack, some falling off, some infert-
GRITTY. We seem either Indifferent about
discovering or unable to discover the great
stories of our country; or, having discov-
cred and chosen one, we view 1t superb
cially rather than profoundly. partially
rather than completely; or, II we have at
tanned a profound and complete compre-
hension of 1t, we do not with patient wait
ing and vigil, under the older faith, the
older enthusiasm, master the vision OF It
until the vision masters us; or, having
done all other needful things we lack the
courage, the conscience or the requisite
art bravely and completely to write down
what we have ourselves found out ana
known and accepted as the truth
Too often, it would seem, the mod
ern author aims at immediate success
rather than the fearless declaration of
what he has found out and known
and accepted as the truth" He writes
with public sentiment or the publish
er's supposed prejudices in view at a
sacrifice of strength.

New Hone For Ireland.

For centuries a certain powerful ele.
ment in Irish society has maintained
or endeavored to maintain that the
Irish masses are not qualified for self
government. Now, however, when It
is apparent to all the world that unless
some steps are taken to govern Ire
land more intelligently than sha has
ever been governed by England there
will soon be few Irish people left In
the Emerald Isle to govern, this ele-
ment, headed by Lord Dunraven as
mouthpiece, has taken alarm.
In a recent pamphlet ON the crisis
which hangs over Ireland Lord Dun
raven assails with bitterness the pres
ent system of government, which, he
declares. satisfies no one. Contending
that the Irish people are Industrious
at home and show themselves capable
among men in every other part of the
globe, he throws upon the English gov
eminent the responsibility for the emil
grafton Of the youth from the country.
One paragraph Of the pamphlet is as
follows:
Ireland is at a crisis in her history.
Year by year the country has been sink
Ing deeper and deeper into misfortune
and has now reached a point at which
must be decided whether the dominant
tendencies shall continue to the inevitable
melancholy end or whether a supreme eff
fort shall be made to lift the country out
Of the national bankruptcy.
This manifesto Of Lord Dunraven
displays very clearly the temper Of
that part Of the Irish aristocracy which
recently has begun to realize the fulfil
ity of longer attempting to stem the
tide Of Nationalist sentiment or to
disguise the fact that even in a priv
legged class blood is thicker than water.
So much time and energy have been
expended upon purely political ques-
tons relating to Ireland that many
people seem to imagine that only
sweeping political change can produce
satisfactory result. What Ireland
needs above all else perhaps is better
play for her commercial industries and
better opportunities for her agricultur-
al products. The island Is poor, and 1t
has been kept poor by the way its land
has been mismanaged and its manu-
features handicapped. No doubt that
the political status Of the Irish people
has prevented proper care Of the soil,
and it is not likely that prosperity will
return unless the political blight is
removed To that extent agitation for
political reform is founded in reason.

WEAVER WINS.
The Gas Company Has Withdrawn From the
 Contest.

Philadelphia, May 27.--Mayor Wea- yer has won. That was the glad news that was circulated throughout this city this afternon and the cause Of the rejoicing of the people was the re-
 1rement, at least permanently, of the United Gas Improvement Co from the contest with the mayor. This after noon President Dolan of the United Gas Improvement Co notified Presi- dent Ransley of the select council and President McCurdy of the common council that the company would with draw its bid of $25.OOO,OOO for the lease of the gas plant.
 Philadelphia, May N.-Mayor Wea- yer and the republican organization leaders are striving, the former to gain control of councils and the latter to prevent q sufficient number of defec- tions from the organization" ranks to sustain the mayors veto of the gas lease resolutions. When Mayor Wea- yer broke with the Organization" over the lease of the city gas works it was thought that the fight would extend beyond the confines of the city. De velopments now indicate, however, that the entire state organization is likely to become involved.
 Since Thursday leaders from vari. ous other counties have been coming here seeking information, and it is re. ported to-day that call has been se- cretly issued from headquarters for q conference at Atlantic City, N. J. It is rumored that state and city leaders have been invited to attend the con. ference.
 Mayor Weaver was today assured of the support of an additional select councilman, making eleven in that body who are said to be pledged to him The latest deserter from the ranks of those favoring the lease is George E. Edwards, select councilman from the twenty-second ward, which embraces the suburb of Germantown.

AID IS WITHDRAWN.
Associated Building Trades pulls
 Away From Strikers.

Chicago, May 27.--Attention of strfk- CTS and employers was centered large ly to-day on the effect of the action of the associated building trades, account cd rhe strangest labor body in Chi- cago, and representing in it's member ship upwards of 1890 union workmen. This body having withdrawn both mor- al and financial support from the team sters cause, the first effect will be to cut off nearly s1,000 d week from the strikers funds. The subsequent effect is probleinatical many thinking 1t means The first break in the struggle, the beginning of the end. In any event. it seems to check the peril to the whole building industry of the city-a situation which had become one of the greatprobIems of the strike.
 Further, this withdrawal of financial support is particularly trying at time when finances are serious problem. The response to the request for con- utibutions from the country at large has it is alleged. not been up to ex- pectations, and with daily expense of S10.000, financial stringency may be the rock on which the strike will be wrecked.
 As q result of the teamsters strike a new low record in the price of coal, as compared with previous depression during the past ten years has been es- tablished.

NEW BRIDGE IN JERSEY
 CITY WAS DYNAhITED.
No Labor Troubles and the Police Are Loss to Under. stand Motive for Deed-Pure Malice is Supposed 10 be at Bottom of It-Bridge Was 36O Feet Lonf Floating Bomb May Have Hit It.

New York, May 27.-Tbe new Penn sylyania railroad iron bridge across the Hackensack river in Jersey City was blown up. apparently by dynamite, early to-day. The noise was heard throughout Jersey City. No one was hurt
 No definite information has been ob- tained as to the cause of the explosion. Minor officials were in charge at the scene. They said there had been no labor troubles of any kind recently and they believed the explosion was caus- ed by an accident.
 The new bridge spanned the Hacken- sack meadows from the foot of New ark avenue, Jersey City, and when completed would have been 460 feet long. The old bridge now in use stands POO feet away and was not dam aged.
 While there is no motive for the ac- tion other than pure maEce, it is be lieyed Try the police who are now at work on the case, that the explosion was caused by some person who row ed out under the structure i'll boat. No estimate of the damage has yet been made.
 The explosion caused the circula- ton of rumors that the railroad com pany had refused to allow certain class of workmen to be employed on the bridge and that thereupon. anony- nous threats to blow up the bridge and the lives of some of the railroad o.~ials. All knowledge of such let ters was denied at the offices of the Pennsylvania railroad in Jersey City today. The railroad officials denied that there had been labor troubles of any kind fin the building of the bridge. That the explosion was the resnlt of plot by dirgruntIed worlmen was prosI nounced absurd by an employe of the office
 It is believed that powerful ex- ilosiye fioated down the river on the tide whether by design of some ma licious person or by accident is un- known. A rigid investigation was in progress today.
 The new bridge Is being built on piles and when it Is finished the old bridge which if is to replace will be and the new bridge fIoated down on rafts to the site of the old structure.
