GOMPERS MAY
COME TO Chicago
Approaching Gathering Of American
Federation Of Labor Most important
In History Of Organization.

Chicago. H.. Nov. 2.-0rganized la
throughout the United States Is look
ing forward with keenest interest to
the annual convention Of the Ameri'
can Federation of Labor. which Is 10
assemble In Minneapolis week after
next. There Is no concealing the fact
that the rank and file OF the organiza.
tion looks upon the approaching gath.
ering as the most important In the
history of the federation. which e&.
tends over "A quarter of a century.
There Is a feeling. which has scarcely
been given expression, that the organ.
ization Is approaching a crisis In It's
career
To put the situation In plain words,
II Is becoming recognized among the
more intelligent OF the labor element
that the political programme of Presi.
dent Gompers and his advisers has
prossd ''fro~t.' Some Of the promin
ent leaders do not hesitate even now
TO say so. II the elections next Tues
day are disastrous to the plans of the
American Federation Of Labor, or, in
other words, IL the congressional can
didates that the federation has mark.
ed for defeat are reelected by normal
majorities. II Is safe to say that Mr.
Gompers' reputation as leader will
suffer severely. That the reaction
against his leadership will be suffi.
ciently strong to result in his over
throw at the Minneapolis convention
is scarcely probable under any circum-
stances. lie has successfully guided
the organization for years and his
personal population among the rank
and file Is believed to be sufficient
TO keep him In power But 1t Is also
probable that he will be forced to
entirely abandon his political schemes
or put them upon a wholly new basis.
While the radical element Of organ
led labor enthusiastically embraced
the scheme of going into politics, 1t Is
at the same time true that the more
conservative of the organizations,
such as the railway brotherhoods, the
painters, and others, have been only
luke warm In support Of the political
propaganda. The sentiment of those
opposed to President GOmpers Is well
set forth In an editorial appearing in
the official organ this week of one of
the strongest and most influential
labor organizations in America. The
writer says:
We regret, but are not surprised
at the apathy of the unorganized and
the absence of enthusiasm on the part
of the organized workers In the poll
ticai campaign. The executive coun-
Gil of the American Federation OF La
Dor must feel discouraged at the cool
ness with which their plans were re.
ceived and disappointed at the lack of
interest shown by those active in the
movement. 1t lis not difficult to ac-
count for this unfortunate situation.
Those responsible cannot plead ignor-
ance of the methods OF trade unions
or Of the sentiments OF their member
ships. No one knows better than
President Gompers that trade union

At night the scene presented is brilliant; whlte'

evening wear is silk or velvet Dutch dress
(which is a princess cut with low neck and
shoulder straps) worn over a frivolous little
guimpe of some Sort chiffon, lace or silk.
A striking model of this description was worn

CONFIDENTIAL VIEWS ON THE SIDE.
Since Paris has taken up the no-corset notion,
see girls experimenting with the fad during the
morning, and undoubtedly the uurestrained exer-
else will do them much good, but the same girls
have small waists in the evening Feminine vani-
ty is stronger force than self-preseryation.
Girls who have long, narrow feet should choose
shoes with wide, extended soles otherwise the
skates will not stay on, and when they slip OIL
the soles a very nasty fall is sure to follow For

quired.

This does away with extra skirts, save the Ions

We take hold of new diversion, run it to
death in six months, shelve it and take up an
other. With the present advent of roller skating,
however, it is likely that it will make good for
a considerably longer time
In foreign capitals, London, Paris, Vienna and
Berlin roller skating is regarded quite as essen
tial an amusement as theatres and music halls,
and here the rinks are never closed except in
midsummer.
The costuming is usually elaborate, often fanci
full and the scene as a whole, very picturesque
and interesting spectacle
lnere is wide difference between the charac-
teristc types of the skaters of the two countries
the sturdy, blonde-haired German fraulein, and
the dainty Partisan, with her perfect coiffure and
chic toilette are good examples of what mean.
Fancy dress costumes, bal masques, as Paris
calls them, are frequent occurrences, and many
of these are given, both in private rinks, rented
especially for the occasion, and in the large pub
lie rnks. All manner of fancy skating is intro
duced and in some cases national dances are
given on roller skates.
In London, while the King, Queen Alexandra
and Princess Victoria do not actually indulge in
the merry sport, they often occupy a private
box on gala occasions, and seem to thoroughly en-
JOY the merry spectacle.
Pauline Chase, the original Pink Pajama Girl,
has recently introduced very novel skate dance
in London that is making great hit.
But how soon, here in America are we going
to introduce our foreign cousins idea of carni-
val on roller skates? Here's chance for wide

HE athletic Winter Girl is bubbling over
with the buoyancy of her spirits.
What's the answer? Guess.


diversion has been added to her list of
indoor winter sports,-roller skating;
before which throngs of enthusiasts willingly bow.
And methinks that morning tennis and croquet
clubs, which were so fashionable last winter, will
now go abegging.
This whirling through the air is most invigo-
rating form of exercise, keeping the body in
good, steady motion (that is after you have gone
through the preliminary stages of proper balan-
cling, when your physical and mental forces some
times woefully desert you).
The exercise brings all the muscles of the body
into play, stretching those the average woman
seldom employs, besides stimulating the blood
into healthy, vitalizing action.
Not one woman in ten takes the proper amount
of exercise; yet she wonders why she easily tires,
why her complexion is dull and colorless and her
circulation poor and languid. Here's her beauty
balm, packed down and running over.
The benefits of skating are materially increased
when the fair whirler will make up her mind to
take deep, full breaths, such as can only be ao-
complshed when the shoulders are thrown back
and chest out, in place of the stingy, little in.
halations that utterly ignore the upper portions
of the lungs.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-11-25

For the morning sessions the fair skater is very
simply gowned in a rather severe tailored suit,
with morning skirt of plated linen or dainty ba-
tiste or fine French flannel, both styles being
frequently hand embroidered.
In place of the separate waist, which is more
practical and comfortable on account of its light
weight, waist is worn to match the skirt, max.
ing three-piece suit The waist may be of the
same material, or of silk trimmed with the cloth,
a more fashionable combination this winter The
flannel waist referred to is not unpleasantly
heavy, as it is the same quality used for outing
wear in the summer.
White or cream serge skirt worn with lingerie
waist makes pretty and attractive costume The
skirt and waist, too, may be kept in the locker
or in care of the wardrobe woman and left there
for a small sum each week.
Roller skating seems to have captivated soci-
ETY. people. Especially in the morning do the
girls make the largest showing, since there is
less to do on the social program, and string of
automobiles and carriages is always along the
curb at this hour of the day.

"An actress true to her art should not marry.

"When two artists of equal power, who have

temperament, instilled with ambition to rise
still further, enter into a state of wedlock the
inevitable result is that their professional instinct

posed never TO be guilty OF such weak
ness, women also must initiate this
stoicism and develop hardness or strongminded
ness, whichever we may choose to call it. 1t is
very questionable if this is good for women in
any way; it is relief TO shed tears and many
man would be glad if it were not regarded as
cowardice for him to weep 1t is Natures meth
cd, or one of her methods, of assuaging grief and
the inability to indulge in tears leads many men
to drink means of giving vent to their feel
ings
From another point of view, however, this stoi-
cism is certainly prejudcial;. that is, in the
chances of marriage. Whatever men may say, it
is inherent in them to like tender woman; they
see in her one who will sympathize with them,
and who will come to them for sympathy No
man really likes to see woman cry, for it hurts
him and makes him uncomfortable until he can
do something to relieve her, but all men prefer
a woman who can and does cry. Not foolish,
faint-hearted specimen OF humanity, who Aops
down at any trouble, however small, but really a
tender-hearted creature who, although brave
enough does not try to encase herself in kind
of additional outer skin, suit of mail that will
render her proof against sentiment. A woman
of that sort, they not unnaturally imagine will
be a very undesirable helpmeet in this world OF
lps and downs, and they look for one who has
not lost the ability to weep in true feminine
fashion.
In spite of their moral strength, men always
want some one in whom they can confde What
announcement can they expect from a woman
who knows not how to weep, and regards it as
undignihed?
