BUILDERS EXCHANGE TO !.
SETTLE WAGE QUESTION
1t 10 UP To Thorn To Determine
Whether Or Not Industrial Peace
Will Prevail.

While the angel Of peace has been
wont to hover over the building trade
unions Of the city for several years,
this spring 1t looks as though there
were war clouds gathering. The car
penters have asked for a minimum
wage OF 40 cents an hour. Most of the
contractors have been paying more
than this during the past year, but
as the request for a fixed increase
comes from the union some of the con-
tractors favor making a fight.
1t is up to the Builders Exchange to
say whether or not the Industrial peace
or this community will be disturbed
curing the year. The carpenters are
decidedly passive, but hopes are en-
teTtainec$ for a settlement without
trouble.
1t Is said that the building laborers
expect to make demand for an in
crease IN wages to take effect june
ISL. They are now getting rs cents,
and ask for 30 cents an hour.
Outside of these two unions no other
trouble Is expected this season.

she will also receive a dowry from her
mother of nearly 100000.
It was very quiet wedding and was
witnessed by the brides mother and
Mrs. Carl Wuest, sister Of the BRIDE
groom.
The bride wore a pretty gown Of
white chiffon cloth and a hat to cor
respond and her only attendant was
her sister, Miss Ethel Laminta Yale,
who wore gown of pink chiffon.
After the marriage there was fami-
ly dinner, including the bride and BRIDE
groom and the members of the we'd
ding party in the palm room Of the
Hotel Astor.
Since the death Of the brides father
several years ago, her mother has car
ried on the factories founded by the
late Mr.. Yale at Yalesville, Conn.,, and
was assisted by her daughter in an ex-
ecutive capacity.
The bride was educated at the Sacred
Heart convent at Kenwood, Albany, N.
Y, and also in Europe. She is a fine
linguist and a musician of superior
talent.

WOMAN IN UNIQUE APPOINTMENT.

For the hrst time in the history Of
the American navy a woman holds the
rank of "shipkeeper," and is in charge
of a government naval establishment.
To be sure, it isn't very large estab-
lishment, and the salary is only 1865 a
year. The woman is Mrs: A. H. Met
calf, and she is in charge of the navy
yard at Sackett's Harbor, N. Y, on
Lake Ontario, not far from the St..
Lawrence river
Her husband had been keeper of the
yard since 1868, and when he died re-
Gently the widow was appointed to the
position
Only an acre and a half of ground
is comprised in the yard, which has
half dozen small buildings and a few
guns left over from the war of 1912.
Early in the last century it was a
prominent place, however, and after the
close Of the war of 1912 the construc-
ton Of a ship of the lines was begun
there. This was the largest and best
type Of warship then constructed. The
vessel was to have been named the
New Orleans.
For some reason the work went on
slowly, and in the course of time was
abandoned. The hull remained on the
ways until few years ago, when 1t
was destroyed.

A BOY BUILDS
HIS OWN AUTO

L TO1Il the seattle Times.
A diminutive automobile driven by a
one and half horse power engine,
which climbs Pike street from Second
to Broadway on it's high gear and
which gets over the level Broadway,
bound for its garage. at rate of ten
miles an hour. possesses more than
ordinary interest in that it's owner
and driver is also its maker, Warren
Dalton, Is years Of age.
During leisure moments Master Dali
ton built his machine in the workshop
Of his fathers Pacific Coast Laundry
Supply company's plant. The Detroit
automarine, water cooled engine, tho
wheels and the springs, are the only
Dalton workshop. The young builder
designed his machine, made the pat
terms for the parts and after their
casting dressed and assembled them
into the machine. Then he tore 1t
down and took the parts home on
street cars. At home the machine
was again set up and the first run was
made Saturday afternoon, the ma
chine acting perfectly in all its parts
and exciting as much admiration and
attention as the proud heart of the
for. ~,.. =. ~ -.---z
Maker Dalton has named his auto
mobile "Mobel B." It being the second
venture he has made in this field of
mechanics, the original attempt hav-
ing been in the making over of a mot
orcycle into semblance of q motor
car.
The machine, which is driven by
gasoline power, has one and one
half horse power engine. The wheels
are twenty inches in diameter and the
pattern of the machine Is "runabout,"
with seating capacity for the driver
only. It is finely upholstered and the
box is finished in the popular red.

igal amount of rascality in the days
when there Was vastly less publicity;
and, secondhand here is his best con-
solatlon-that the standards of public
opinion are as high as ever, and that,
contemporary with this hideous expos
ure of wrong doing, the signs are num-
erous of the revival of the ethics of bus
mess, as well as Of the ethics of poll
tics.
In private discussion not long ago,
OF one. of the most pathetic cases of
ruined reputation that recent events
nave illustrated, the fact came out that
thls man, so widely hOnOred and beloved
ard still so sympathetically regarded,
had long realized the misfortune of his
sltuation-deeply. deprecating the sup
posed necessity of continuing certain
corrupt and demoralizing practices. 1t
is evident that if such ethical questions
as he, for many unhappy years, decided
according to unfortunate custom. could
reach his authority again, after a per-
lod of exposure and retribution such as
has just taken place., he would not hes
ltate to declare to his associates that.
obviously, Honesty is the best policy
as we'll as the most agreeable part that
honorable men can play. So it is now
easier for honest impulses and honest
suggestions to prevail in all matters re-
lating to the conduct of business.
The most conspicuous exposure that
has taken place, is of course, that which
was precipitated by certain insurance
imbroglios, and there was good fortune
in the fact that these exposures. almost
more than any other possible ones. hits

has therefore been carried into everv

TRINITY VS..
BOARD OF TRADE

julius Chambers in the Brooklyn Eagle
The Trinity corporation. one of the
richest church trusts in this world, is
engaged in a struggle with the New
York board Of estimate to have the
city surrender Temple street, a small
alley directly behind the Borsel blild-
Ing, on lower Broadway, running from
Cedar to Thames street. Hardly one
citizen out of a hundred ever heard
Of Temple street, but it Trinity par
ish could regain possession Of the strip
of ground it would have a solid block
OF land, upon which a modern sky
scraper of prodigious proportions
could be erected. In exchange, Trim
ity offers strip six feet wide suffi-
cient to broaden Thamas street to
81 feet. At present the little lane Is
so narrow that two teams cannot pass
between the curbs. The appearance Of
Commodore e. c.. Benedict, as the
representative of the Citizens union,
before the board of estimate has at
tracted attention. to the scheme and
is likely to defeat it. Mr.. Benedict
spoke very plainly rpn the subject and
showed that the city would not profit
by the exchange. 'However, that's his
affair. ;,y.
To me, chief interest turns upon the
Temple street was. originally a lane
that led into the churchyard from the
northward. 1t was the scene in 1888,
Of the ludicrous Doctors riot" about
which few people have been told. A
mob had gathered in the locality to
inflict punishment upon an alleged
malpractitioner. while the excite
ment was at it's height" writes Mrs.
Booth in her history Of this city, "a
group Of the rioters doubtless recruit
ed from the waterside and very unlet-
tered mem CHANGED to pass the house
Of Sir John Temple, the resident
British consul, and mistaking the word
'Sir: John upon the door plate for sur
geon' they almost wrecked the, house
before they could be stopped" The lit
tie street was named for the offended
consul as a balm for his lacerated
feelings and the city authorities made
proper apology and recompense.
Mr.. Benedict very properly takes the
view that if this corporation wants the
worthless little lane it should buy it
from the city.

AN APRIL LIT.

From the New Y Ork Sun:
March, the braggart, loud and sturdy,
now has vanished from the list, and we
hear the hurdy-gurdy with its swarthy
methodist. Talks of moving and spring
cleaning. Coney Isle and Easter hats,
form the topics charged with meaning in
palatial Harlem flats. Partly owing to
the climate. Aprils slow with tears and
smiles; tardy, too, each feathered primate
in the woods, cathedral aisles. Hoidenish,
in fact tomboyful. April loves to smile
and flout, but the, heart of man is joyful,
for the bock-beer signs are out. Now the
jokers crack their best nuts, about winter
underwear. (The foregoing rhyme with
"chestnuts' came quite naturally, we
swear) And the poet, bravely climbing
up Parnassus till he's sore, halts a mo-
ment in his rhyming just to find out
whats the scorer" -,

FOUNDATION OF STYLISH GOWN.
Any Woman May Have Good Figure
Is She Choose a Correct Corset

Any. Woman May Have a Good Figure
if She Choose Correct Corset.
From the Boston Globe:
woman's style. depends utterly
upon her figure. If her figure be bad
she cannot hope to have that wonder
full, intangible thing which we call style
unless she makes her figure over
American women are the most styl-
ish women in the world because they
have the best figures. They think deep
ly about their corsets and they make
themselves good figures with their COR
sets whether nature will or no.
It is now a foregone conclusion that
any woman may have good figure if
she chooses her corset correctly, ana
knows what sort to wear, for there are
types Of corsets for the stout and for
the thin, and it is hopeless for the stout
woman to try to wear the slender wo-
mans stays, thinking thereby to give
herself the proper figure.
The modern corset is wonderful
work Of art. Years ago the only suit
able corset was made in Paris, but THAI
day Is long gone, for now French wo-
men ask for American corsets in the
hope that they may appear with the
wonderful effect Of style that the Am
erican women possess.
It is a sad mistake for q woman to
imagine that she may fit any corset

She must consider what style of stays
her figure requires.
AS much care and attention should
be spent upon the corset as the gown

corset is perfect the gown will almos.
take care of itself.
Many women who should know better
buy the very cheapest Of corsets think
ing that anything will do that will stay
the figure; but cheap corset cannot
have the style and elegance Of a finer
one.
As general thing American women
pay great attention to the selection ana
fitting of their corsets, but there are
some that have not as yet learned the
value of such attention. .,
