lures of "the wild"-Bolo the Rear, A-til the Buzzard, Mudus the Muskrat, etc, etc. Chatwits gift of speech makes him unpopular in the Nevada wilderness; accordingly he returns to his cage and the society of human be- ings who appreciate h.s cleverness. "ChatWit' is one of the most charming of new stories of animals, and there is no attempt to present natural history in the disguise of fiction, and it does not attrlbute~human intelligence to the cre- atures he writes about. It is a pretty romance, pure and simple, and with much humor of refined character. The book is wholly out of the line of con- ventional fiction, has exciting scenes and situations, and Is in short a very refreshing animal story. It is, more over, very happily illustrated by the author himself. The author of "Bruv- yer Jims Baby is to be congratulated on his new success.

All aboard for "The Cruise of the Conqueror' is the word for all fond of a strikingly well told story of love and adventure, brimmlng full of strong and exciting situations. "The Cruise of the Conqueror" is by G. Sidney Paternoster (published by L. c. Page & Col, and Is the lineal successor of his Motor Pir- ate" which laid hold of the public so well with it's racy scenes and vivid de- scriptions of wild adventure. The new story is even better written than the other, and the presumption Is strong that the motor pirate emerged alive and kicking from his plunge down 200 feet Into the sea, and recovered to take the star position in this new and thrilling tale. An aluminium bronze 300 horse power auto-boat of Vanderdecken-lik velocity, with supply of tOrpedoes aboard, might very well hold up an ex- press steamer and relieve her of the cargo of bullion, and likewise defy tor pedo-boat destroyers. This is what hap pens in the story, but it is only an in- cident in a series of adventures, one pill ed on top of the other, all of them leaving nothing to be desired in tho matter of thrills and suspense Thare is still the same struggle between hero and villain over the herotne, and st the end the same possibility as in the earlier book that this blood .hlrsty, dar- ing, resourceful masterful pirate has escaped death, and may return again $1.OS for sale by the Edward Malley Co.

HOW FUSION STANDS.

II the fusion idea between Democrats
and Clement is dead, il makes pretty
lively corpse and will for some time to
como. Ardent Republicans and the So
called straight" Democrats are prepared
to read the obituary over the grave, and
in fact some Of them have already done
80. Mayor Burke Of Burlington, who
wants to be the Democratic nominee for
governor, is one OF those who would
like to bury live thing. He says: 81
don't think fusion will be mentioned
in the convention. That is my prophecy
now" The assertion of the Burlington
man was made after the Burlington eau
Gus and probably before he had received
The returns from other sections Of the
state. These returns do not Justify the
belief that fusion is dead. Indeed, the
Burlington delegation itself, nominally
a straight list Of delegates, contains some
men who are outspokcn in stating that
they believe in the fusion idea. In
Rutland, also, while the delegation is
supposed to be of the straight variety,
it is said that some will vote for fu-
sion. In Brattleboro and Swantoa flu

WORKERS AND THE LAWS.
An Illustration of Ono of Labor's
Deceptive Privileges.

Some years ago in Buffalo girl
about eighteen years old named Knis-
ley was employed in The factory of one
Pratt. She was at work ON very dan
gerous machinery, which had no safe
" guards TO protect her from injury
in spite OF statute of the state re-
Quirlng such machinery to be guarded.
The girl got her hand caught in the re-
voiying wheels, and It was crushed and
torn so that her arm had 70 be cut of
at the shoulder
This statute which required these
safety guards on this machinery had
been passed at the urgent insistence
of New York labor unions so that
working men and women, by such adj
dltionnl precautions enjoIned upon
their employers. should have safer
places In which TO do their work This
employer, Pratt, had violated this hui.
name statute, aud by this violation this
young girl lost her arm
She sued Pratt for damages and got
a verdict from Jury in her favor.
The highest court OF New York took
away that verdict aud dismissed her
case The court said that the girl fully
understood the danger TO which her
employers violation Of law had ex-
posed her She had the right It de-
clared. TO assume tile risk Of injury
and keep Mt work az this machine, not
withstanding the dnnger to which she
was exposed. The judges said that be-
cause she kept at work. knowing the
danger. she was presumed 70 have
agreed with her employer 10 waive any
claim OF damages from him In case she
was hurt she had a right TO do this.
Notwithstanding the requirements of
the statute which ordered him to pro

and substantial right which the statute
provided for her-iustead of declaring
she had right TO work in safety they

Get a Reserve FUND.

Undoubtedly the greatest danger that
threatens labor unions today is the de
sire Of new and inexperienced menu

this may be natural, It is very often
disastrous. Some unions may make
great galus In wages aud hours, but
are perhaps not safe standard for
others. A good reserve fund and thor.
