sion, which resulted iaS considerable
display of oratory over technical ques-
tions of procedure, the convention ad-
Journed at 1915 and resolved itself
into committees to hear subjects to
be presented later to the convention.
The chief cause of the oratorical dis
play was motion by j. Garry Brown
of Brockton, Mass, that the conven-
ton practi cally resolve itself int a
committee of the whole to discuss
such subjects as might properly be
introduced. It was evident that the
majority Of the delegates who took
part in the discussion following the
motion planned to say something
about the political future and the fu-
ture political activity Of the fedora
ton. 5s.s 5 !
James Duncan, first vice president,
announced that he is prepared to take
the stand that the original purpose
of the federation, the advancement of
trades unionism, is the first policy OF
the federation and must remain SO,
and that politics shall be a side issue.
He announced that he was prepared
to take issue with those who hope
to see the future political activity Of
the federation its main feature. In
the drifting from the point that fol-
lowed others expressed different cpin-
ions. Delegate Brown asserted that
the results Of recent activity had been
that labor had succeeded In selecting
Its enemies and defeating Its friends.
He declared that this defeat snf the
purpose OF the recent pol tical move
was due to failure to properly organ
ize and that because OF the failure
attacks had been made on President
Gompers, whereas he was not person
ally responsible. Mr.. Brown has "a
resolution before the convention call
ing for the creating Of an auxiliary
political organization to carry on all
political work to the end that the eff
forts of labor In politics may result In
the election OF friends OF labor and
the defeat Of Its enemies. The as

Principal Object Of Federation It. ::

Minneapolis, Mimi, Nov. 17.-''Ma-
ncious Stiffness" were the words with
which President Samuel Gompers OF
the American Federation OF Labor
characterized the attack upon him by
Congressman Charles e. Littlefield of
Maine at the Founders banquet in
New York Wednesday night. When
approached with copy Of the press
dispatch reporting Mr.. Littlefe1d's ut.
terances at the close of the morning
session Of the federation convention
President Gompers was ready with a
statement. He had already read the
dispatch and at once used forceful Ian
guage on Mr.. Littleheld, and his ut
terances. y. sz5 49,, 3,
"Mr. Littlefield,'' said President
Gompers, els a monomaniac 80 far as
all questions of organized labor are
concerned. He is unable to look with
out prejudice at any measure advanced
by its representatives. So far as Mr..
Littlefeld's attack on our agitation for
an anti-injunction bill is concerned I
am content to let my answer be taken
from the report which / presented to
the federation at the afternoon SEES
sion of this convention on Monday.
Finding himself in congenial gath
ering, a gathering made up Of men
bitterly hostile to organized labor, Mr..
Iittlefield evidently decided to vent
his spleen against the movement and
against myself The fact that he had
the newspaper men removed from the
room after saying as much as he did

dulge in further rancor, were such. a

The Ocean,s remnerntnre.

The extreme range of temperature in
the ocean never exceeds 90 degrees F.,
yet temperature has played more i'm
portant part in the distribution Of ma
rine organisms than in that Of the air
breathing and warm blooded animals
Of the land. The surface waters Of the
ocean have five well marked tempera-
ture areas-an arctic and antarctic cir
cumpolar belt with a small range and
a low temperature, circumtropical
belt with small range and a high tenn
perature and two intermediate areas
with large annual ranges Of tempera-
ture. Vertically, the ocean may be d.
vided into the superficial region, ex-
tending down to about 100 fathoms,
and the deep sea. The surface region,
especially near the land, has q variety
OF conditions and an abundant fauna
and flora, but plant life is absent In the
uniform conditions Of the deep sea, al
though animal life is abundant. The
warm surface waters Of the tropics
nave many species, but relatively few
individuals, while the reverse is true
III colder regions. DIR. John Murray ac-
counted for all the various facts in
marine life distribution by supposing
that in early geological times the whole
globe had a uniform climate and an
almost universal fauna and fora. The

paleozoic period We're probably formed
when the water had a temperature of

Fish Know CoIors.

Fish know colors," said a keeper at
the aquarium the other day. "They
can distinguish between red and blue
or white and green as well as you and
l. Wait and I'll prove it."
He led the way to a tank in which
were some red and some yellow and
some green fish. and In IL were arti-
fetal grottoes painted respectively red
and yellow and green. The keeper
rolled the water with his hand, and the
tsh fed, the red ones to the red grotto.
the yellow ones to the yellow grottO
and the green ones to the green grotto.
They know which color shields them
from observation best" said he. Now
Ill change the grottoes, so as to prove
my statement second time"
He moved the grottoes to different
places In the tanks and again rolled the
water. The same thing followed as
before. Each fish darted like a shot
TO the grotto OF its own color, where IT
knew it would be best concealed.-New

SOURCES OF MEDICINES.
Pghat Various Drugs Look Like


R7hat Various Drugs Look Like In
Their Crude State.
Upon going into a pharmacy and
looking over the mysterious Jars and
bottles and boxes that line the shelves
did you ever wonder where on earth
all of the drugs came from and how
they appeared before they were ground
up and made into oils or dried or pull
verified or crystallized into queer shap-
ed Jumps? Each Jar and box seems to
hide some secret which you immediate
" become curious TO solve. How many
different lands do they representa- And
after they leave the jars that hold
them now what are they made into7
Who, for example, would connect a
great pile Of dry. thin twigs neatly tied
into small bundles with sarsaparilla?
These twigs are the creeping roots and
rootlets Of prickly shrub that grows
In Jamaica, and they are worth from
10 cents 70 30 cents a pound.
Somewhat similar in appearance is
ipecacuanha, which also comes to US
in dry twlgs, which are part Of the
trailing root of a plant found in the
NsAAAH AoINclH oL
These roots receive no preparation
save drying before they are shipped of
to the United States. They are packed
in large sacks, and the workmen who
open the bales must beware OF breath
ing the pungent, irritating dust given
or and which is productive OF unpleas-
ant results il incautiously inhaled.
Castor oil, too. is hard TO recognize
ia the pretty little brown beans spot
ted with black and with polished skins
that arrive In bags from India. They
look far too attractive 10 suggest the
much hated dose Of our early days.
Aloes, the base Of many nauseous
medicines, may be seen In its crude
form as n solid mass resembling

poured into chests or kegs In semi
fluid state, hardening presently into
solid block. Not infrequently II is
inclosed in the dry skins OF monkeys
and in this strange form brought to
market.
One Of the most interesting OF drugs
is opium, both on account Of its awful
potency and by reason OF its great
value. 4 case of opium, about 225
pounds, is worth $500, roughly. The
case is Of rough deal, lined with tin,
and contains n number OF soft, dark
Jumps. like large handfuls OF dough,
packed very closely together in a
quantity Of dry, chaffy seeds.
The opium which reaches America Is
OF two qualities, one for medicine. the
other for smoking, and comes from
Persia and Asia Minor, China and
India
Another costly and all important
drug is quinine, which arrives in its
crude form as large slices Of bark,
packed either fiat or in "quills"-that
is, curled round upon itself like roll.
