GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE SPEAKS.

Denounce the Action of the Men Who
 Struck.
 James Murdock of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen yesterday after noon announced that ultimately few of the men now on strike in the yards of the New Haven road might regain their positions.
 The general grievance committee, which consists of thirty-seven mem 'bers, representing upwards of 5000 train and yardmen for the New Ha- ven employees, conNened yesterday for the purpose of Investigating the strike, and found that the strike was illegal. Their statement in part follows:
 We must in justice to the officers of the New Haven railroad and ourselves denounce the conduct of the New Ha- ven yardmen, and if they had just cause for complaint and had taken it up in the proper manner there is no doubt that it would have been satis- factorily adjusted, inasmuch as labor organizations have as their only asset integrity. -.t@-,
 We must call on our members upon the system to see to it that the con- tract which exists between the New Haven road and its train and yard men is properly lived up to by the members, This we pledge ourselves to do. We also wish to commend the action of the New Haven yardmen who remained at work during the strike.

TEyn AUSTRIAN EMPEROR.

In consequence of the weekly audi ence given by the emperor having been cancelled for next week, repeated ru- mors as to the health of the monarch are current among the public The correspondent of the Hungarian paper Magyar Venuzet.' accordingly ad- dressed an inquiry on this subject to the court physician of his Majesty, and the reply received was as follows. q am always in the immediate neighbor- hood of the emperor. l do not know whether it is habit, but his Majesty will always have a doctor near him. I appear every morning in the pres- ence of the emperor with an inquiry after his health, and receive always the same answer Nothing is the mat ter with me
 At the present time the health of his Majesty is as good as possible. The emperor belongs to that category of persons who throughout their lives never even suffer from headache. His Majesty and the Archduke Rainer, who is three years older, have the soundest constitutions among the Hapsburgers. The approach of age is not visible in either of them. This miracle as re- gards his Majesty may be explained by his manner of life. The emperor, who formerly smoked ten to fifteen strong Virginia cigars daily, now con- tents himself with two light ones: he drinks daily about two glasses of beer and some light wine; he sleeps much, and great care is taken during his sleep that cold is avoided
 While travelling, the emperor thinks much of personal neatness. During his recent journey to Reichenberg the train was stopped in order that he might be shaved The time thus lost had to be made up, as the emperor aI- lows no unpunctuality. A dentist at- tends his Majesty once yearly, but has rarely anything to do, His Majesty has only lost three teeth. In word,

OUT FOR BLUE FISH.
ALI ABOARD FOR THE GAMEY
 SNAPPER BLUES.

Administrations on the Fish, and the
 Ripping Good Tackle to be Had at Bassett's-PrOper Fish Fetchers, and
 at Fetching Prices--Like BoyhOOd
 Days.
 The snapper blues are running" is the good news from the shore and coast. Every disciple of Walton dreams of the little waves Tapping against the boat recalls the port with these gamey rascals, and hurries down to John E. Bassett & Co.'S hardware store to complete his stock of fishing tackle. There is no better way of spending holiday afternoon known to the elect than the pull and swirl as a snapper blue takes hold, besides the fresh briny air, and the sight of the wooded shore thrown in gratis. There is no mean sport also, in hanging over a bridge rail to fish, in boyhood fash ion.
 But one must have proper tackle, and these elect know the wisdom of seeking out a well-established and well-stocked store as being completest and safest therefore cheapest-especially when the store is making a speciality of tackle.
 These terms define John E.. Bassett & company of 754 Chapel street. and also of State street. The storeis one of the oldest in the state, established when New Haven was a country village, and it is most completely stocked. Here, with courteous treatment accorded him, one may be sure of finding goods as they are represented, of excellent uual> ity, and at surprisingly low prices. There are all sorts and conditions of fishermen's tools-poles, reels, floats, lines of all sorts. There are seihes at various prices for catching sinners for bait. The latter-day Waldensian is delighted, as he has ever been at Bas- setts, and the new customer contracts the habit of going there regularly.
 So it's back to boyhood days, and with James Whltcomb Rileys "ole swimmin' Hole." in the pocket, and Bassett's good tackle, its ho! for the snapper blues.

SUNDAYS ARE COUNTED
IN CARRIER |: VACATION
Government Can Run Thru Sab
bath Days Into Rest
. ,...-.> i. Period, Too. :,..., ~. 80
> BY II, C., Stevens.

Washington, Aug. 1s:-.It is now time
for the rural free delivery mail car
riers to take the benefit of the new law
giving each an annual vacation OF tif-
teen days with pay. The vacation
includes Sundays and holidays. so that
the carriers probably will be asked to
start the outing on Sunday and re-
vacation consist of three Sundays and
twelve week days The full fifteen
days are due only to those who have
been in the service for the entire year,
those having served less getting only
pro rata vacation of day and q
quarter for each month in the service.
The rural carrier wishing to get his
vacation has to make application to the
postmaster out Of whose office he car.
The. postmaster forwards the app1ica-
ton to the department in Washington
if the vacation is for more than two
days., as the postmaster has no author
ity to grant leave for more than that
length of time, and the necessary per-
mission is then forwarded from the
department to the postmaster, usually
by telegraph in order to save the car
rier delay in making his vacation
plans.
While the carrier is on his vacation
his work is done by his regular sub
stitute, who draws pay at the rate Of
$500 per year no matter what the rate
earned by the regular carrier. The
postoffce department was some tins
in getting this favor for the rural car
riers. the last and strongest recon.
mendation being made by the post
master general in 1905. Congress took
it up at the time the appropriation
was made for the fiscal year now in
force, and from this time on it is likely
that the rural carriers will always
have this daisy little snap in the good
old summer time. .s.
