FRIENDS ON EVERY SIDE.
~~N~~~


A little girl in red, so small that h
had not mastered the intricate art OF
dressing herself unassisted, recently
started from Jersey City for the home
of her parents in Bismarck, N. D.
A writer in the New York Sun describes
the beginning Of her journey as follows:
She carried a Maltese kitten In her
arms. Candy vas sticking out all over
her like prismatic quilts, and when
ever she moved about silver coin Of all
kinds in all her pockets-and she had
lots Of them-made her Jingle merrily.
She is Freda Petroska of Warsaw,
Poland, five years old. Her father and
mother came to America three years
ago and bought a farm In North Da-
kota, leaving Freda with her grand
mother. After they had got the farm
into good shape M paying they sent
for F'reda. An aunt of the little girl
spoke English well, and had taught her
the language, and she spoke II with a
slight accent.
She had passage in the steerage of a
Hamburg-American liner, but when the
cabin passengers heard about her, trav-
cling all alone and tagged for her des-
tination, as all lone baby voyagers are,
they asked permission to bring her up
into the cabin, and this reques: the cap
tain granted.
The ships cat had a litter OF kittens
on the first day out from Hamburg, and
Freda claimed and got one kitten the
moment she saw them.
The little girl expressed the belief
that there was no more silver and cop
per money left in the world after she
had filled all the pockets she had orig
inally and the half-dozen more that the
stewardess made for her.
Conductors on the trains OF which
Freda %journeyed out to her new home
helped to make her toilet. At Ellis ISL
and the money changer gave her more
coin, the caterer supplied her with
enough things to last her several days,
and inspectors added nickels and dimes
to her oyerburdened satchel.
When a reporter asked her what she
thought of America, she said it was q
very nice place.

At Mobile, Ala, 200 masked men held
up a train and took two negroes from the
sheriff at noon and hanged them. The
men were accused of attacking white girls.
The conductor had the train held so that
the passengers might see the hanging, the
men being hanged on a tree close beside
the railroad track. The sheriff and his
deputies were disarmed.
Only the presence of troops at Macon,
Ga, prevented the recurrence of an at
tempt to lynch a negro who had shot
two white men of that city. The mob
had broken its way into the Jail that
night and released several white men
charged with murder, one negro was shot
but not killed, but the prisoners had been
spirited away. The father of one of the
wounded white men pleaded with the mob
to LEI the Law take its course. Later the
accused negro was secretly taken to At
lanta.
George Blackburn, a negro of Arsenta,
Ark, who was arrested on suspicion OF
being the man who fired from ambush on
two white men. was taken from Jail Mon
day night and lynched. Later it appear
ed, Blackburn was not the guilty man.
-Four hundred negroes deserted their
homes and ven to Little Rock, because
they were afraid for their lives.

Toledo Strike Injunction,

United States Judge Taylor of Toledo
granted a sweeping injunction against the
members of the machinists' association
on strike at the Pope-Toledo Company,
forbidding them from interfering in any
way with the company's business or en-
ployes. Thu company complains that the
local authorities had refused to give
proper protection from the strikers. The
injunction forbids any sort of threat or
persuasion to induce employees to quit the
company's service, and prohibits strikers
congregating near the plant. While the
strikers continued to use the threat Of
a national sympathetic movement, the To-
cal branch of the National Metal Trades
Association sought to influence public
opinion by large advertisements in the
papers contending that the strike was not
a question of wages or hours. They say
they are p~rejudiced against no man be-
cause a member of the union.

ABOUT WOMEN AND OLD AGE.

relatives, who Invariably occupied com
Portable armchairs in the best place by
the fire or at the window, and who did
nothing but knit or embroider all day
long. Surrounded by an admiring fam
lily and CARRIED in black silk and lace
caps, these worthy old ladies used to
strike terror into my boyish soul, and I
regarded them with an W scarcely
less that what would be due to royalty.
"And yet these old ladies' could not
have been so very old, either, for the
age limit was no longer then than it Is
now"
No, the old lady Of q generation or so
| ago has vanished and there are but few
I specimens of her left. Whether the
disappearance is for good or evil sue
ceeding generations may be able to tel.
But it used to be that after a
was married and had children she was
virtually laid on the shelf. b was IN
"old lady" by the time she reached her
tftieth birthday.
But what about the women of to-
day? The woman of 40 is but just at
the prime Of life, while the woman
whose years number half a hundred
would be deeply insulted to be laid up
on the shelf, even though she were con-
sidered an object of deepest veneration
by her family. She does not settle
down to the chimney corner and cover
her silvery locks with a cap. She keeps
up her interest in current events. When
her children grow up she joins a club
or .evotes her leisure hours to chart
ties.
A woman may sometimes overdo the
matter and appear too youthful for her
years, and here, of course, b makes
n bad mistake. Just as young as she
feels is an excellent maXim to live up
to-, but a little natural dignity Is more
graceful. Remember Nine. Recamier,
the famous French beauty, who lived
to be over 80 and retained her magnet
ic hold over her associates until the
very last.-Philadelphia Ledger.

plicity Marked Ceremony.
At Essen, Germany, in the little chapel
erected especially for the purpose on the
magnificent grounds of the krupD man
sion, the religious was per
formed which made Bertha Krupp, the
richest woman in the world. the bride of
Lieut.. Gustav Won Bohlen und Hal
bach, a ]pennilesS German noble. The
civil ceremony which legally made the
couple man and wife was performed Sat
urday afternoon.
Although the ceremony was performed
in the presence of Kaiser William, rep
rescntatlves of many noble families and
arlstocratic personages generally, sim
plicity was the keynote of the whole we'd
ding. Mingled with the aristocratic and
royal wedding guests, also, were deputa-
tons OF workingmen representing the en-
ployes of the great Krupp industries.
Fifty w~orkingmen were in the wedding
party and they attended not only the
church ceremony. but the wedding ban
quet. From the Krupp mansion the we'd
ding party passed on foot to the chapel.
Kaiser Wilhelm, who arrived on n special
train just in time for the took
his place near the altar and the service
began. When the had been
C~oncludeu, halScf Nllheln, wearing the
uniform of a field marshal, saluted the
bride, kissing her on both cheeks. He
then congratulated the groom tnd spoke
to Nine. Krupp.
A simple wedding banquet was served
In the dining room of the Krupp man
sion. In an eloquent speech in which he
dwelt upon his friendship for the late
Baron krupp, Bertha's father, the Kaiser
proposed the health of the young couple.
After the banquet came an unusual cere-
mony which illustrates the sentiment of
the krupp family in always recognizing
its humble origin. Bertha Krupp's great
grandfather, founder of the family, was

the village blacksmith. Among the build
ings of the Krupp works still stands the
humble smithy with the anvil at which
this ancestor worked a century ago. A
bronze bnst of the first Krupp stands on
the spot where he toiled as a laborer. 1t
was to this spot that the bride made a
pilgrimage to place a wreath on the
bronze bust of the former blacksmith.
After paying this tribute to the brides
forefather the couple started on their
honeymoon.
In arranging her trousseau, the bride
showed the same devotion to simplicity
as in all the details of the wedding. The

First, then, as the word would seem
to indicate, home Is an Enclosure, u
shelter place, a retreat, a place apart,
an n sanctuary, safe from the dis
fractions, the dangers, the noise and
the hurry of life. The dictionary can
give us but a short etymology for the
word; we find it without antecedents
in the A~nglo-Saxon. The Englishman
has claimed, with some degree perhaps
of c%onceit, that the French have no
word for "home." It would be inter
esting to discover the equivalents Of
home In other languages, ancient and
modern. Such Il search would prob
ably reveal the comparatively modern
differentiation Of the family home from
the stockaded village, the camp Of the
tribe, the fortifcation of the clan. The
home is the slow and comparatively
recent emphasis OF the family. It is
father, mother and child living apart,
sleeping and eating by themselves. SO
"home" implies a house which the COM
mon English law recognizes as a mans
castle, which cannot be invaded ruth
lessly by the die or the curious.
But this Enclosure in order to be a

pairs, q place Of serenity, a place for

invite ones soul to with
things high and things eternal. 1t
must be a nursery Of enthusiasm, the
broodiny place for deals.

Short Meter Sermons.

Anarchy is the ghost of liberty.
Innocence seldom needs argument.
Fruit for eternity needs the frosts Of
time.
A strong breath reveals a weak back
bone.
It's hard to succeed if you have no
setbacks.
1t is easy to mistake a resolution for
a reform.
Secrets behind the hand often are
but stabs in the back.
No man ever foun Is father by shut
ting out his fellows.
The sharp dealing that hurts Is that
which cuts into the soul.
The sermon Is sure to be empty Of
blessing when the head is full of bust
ness.
The effect Of true conservation al
ways IS to cut cleaner the lines of
square dealing.
Popular appreciation Of your work
will not be created by the depreciation
of that Of others.
The man who steadily tries to scatter
happiness need not worry about his
stores of holiness.
Keep the wolf of worry from your
door and you will not need to fear
many other wild beasts.
Some people sit up nights wondering

ing heavyweight clothing, shoes, and
rubber footwear, and induced some re-
order business with jobbers, who are
still busy on regular trade. The coal
trade also shows Improvement and
some advance in prices, but here car
congestion, especially at the West, is a

The railways seem to keep finding in
creased difficulty in handling the traf-
fc offering, and fears Of future great
congestion are expressed.
The price situation as a whole is one
of great strength, Oct. 1 prices being
at a record level. For the week the
features in speculative circles have been
the slowness Of dealings in grain at
small net changes in price, and the
sharp fluctuations of cotton, due to
contradictory advices as to frost dam
age. The strength Of the metal mar
kets deserves mention.
Jobbing trade, though Of a between
seasons character, Is very large for the
season. Especial activity Is noted here
in wholesale circles in cotton fabrics,
which tend upward on stronger raw
material prices. Spring trade is receiv-
Ing increased attention and good Or
