Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Chicago. Aug. 23.-Three hundred
and fifty telephone girls employed in
the central exchange of the Chicago
Telephone company struck today and
1000 telephones in the business dis
trict are out of commission. The
cause of the strike was an order issued
by the company directing the girls to
enter the building through a rear door
which, in order to reach, they were
compelled to go through a passage
way that is muddy even in day time,
and dark, Shiny and slippery at night.
There are three saloon entrances on
the alley and the girls declared that
they are annoyed by loiterers about
these places. The demand that the
order to enter by the rear door be
changed was refused by the company,
and the girls struck after a stormy
meeting.

Some thought that Caesar, some
thought that Socrates, some that Lin

most memorable thing; but finally the
palm was awarded to Euclid, the
Mathematician
Euclid went to Alexandria to teach

asked Euclid impatiently if there was
not some special, shorter way by which
he could be taught.
