The craft has determined to Thoroughly
organize itself and has already started
the work getting ready for the spring

understanding as to the date there was

PLUMBERS STRUCK
Yesterday morning there was some
trouble in one OF the shops OF the city on
account Of the infringement Of one or the
crafts upon another.
At the last meeting Of the plumbers
union there was a complaint registered
against one of the members OF the tin
smiths union TO the effect that he had
been found doing the work Of the plum
bers
The employer for whom the work was
being done has been employing none but
union men and was thought TO have been
fair to union men. When the matter Of
having the plumbers do the work OF the
plumbers. however, there was some trou-
BILE and the resui, of II all was that the
plumbers were called or the Job by the
business agent.

KNEW THEIR OLD MASTER.
Dr, Lyon Recognizes by HIS Horses After
an Absence OF Three Years.


Hartford, Conn.,, Nov. 24.-one OF the
warmeet welcomes that DIR. E.. Lyon Of New
Britain has received since his recent return
from a three years trip abroad was given
him this week. when he met two Of his pet
horses by chance in this city. Both recog-
nized him at NICE.
Before DR.. Lyon left his home in New
Britain three years q he owned a pair
of horses. One was a mare named Rosa.
who had been taught many tricks, and the
other was a high headed notionsl gelding,
who also was very fond Of the doctor. Rosa
was sold 10 Father Walsh of Plainville and
the gelding went to a local livery stable
when DR.. Lyon left for the other side.
I While on a visit 10 this city recently Dr..
Lyon learned that Rosa had been bought by
T. J. Long Of this city and being interested
in his old pet looked up her owner. The
two started out for her stable. Rosa was
harnessed with binders or and could not
see her master and her old owner.
When within a few feet Of her Dr.. Lyon
said in a we'll modulated voice Hello, Rosa =
Instantly the mare, who had not heard his
voice in three years. became all animation
a nd turned her head around. As soon as
she saw DR.. Lyon she showed every sivn
OF wanting TO get 10 her old friend.
When the hitching strap was removed
DR.. Lyon said quietly, Back just a lit e.
a little more" and the mare did the trick
exactly as she had been taught 30 do il
years before and then looked up in her old
masters face for c~omrendation.
After that he asked her TO do several
tricks and in not one was he disappointed,
che remembering each command TO the
letter. The doctor then jumped into the
wagon and drove TO the livery stable where
the gelding was CHARTERED. curious to see il
the other horse would remember him.
The gelding was at home and as soon as
be heard his old masters voice he pricked
up his ears and showed every sign Of pleas
ure. When the doctor fondled his head
and called him by his pet name he put his
head down almost to the ground, a thing
that the stablemen had been unable to
make him do.

From the Kansas CITY Times,

From the Kansas City Times.
The following story was told last week
by j. D. McNamars. assistant general pas
senger agent Of the Wabash Railroad
From Clark TO Mexico. Mo-. our line runs
almost parallel with that OF the Alton. The
distance Is about twenty miles. II is open
country and the grades are light. The
going Is good and trains race with each
other as often rs occasion on ers.
-One day two long freight trains. one on
each road. reached Clark about together.
A race. of course. was in order. Passing
Centrslis the Wabash engineer turned partly
around in his cab and noting that the Alton
nan was minus a portion OF his train gave
q broke in two whistle signal for the infor-
nation OF his rival. The Alton man. hearing
the signal himself. turned in his seat and
observing that the Wabash train was con-
siderably shorter than when the race began
he pulled the throttle open a notch or two
more and smiled rs he looked forward to
winning the contest. AZ tho speed OF the
Wabash train continued TO increase the Alton
man in a spirit Of banter gave with his whtstle
the broke in two signal. As there was
no apparent effort made 10 stop the signal
Was repeated.
Again and sgain WIS the signal given
by the racing enginemen.
AT length Mexjco was reached. both trains
arriving there az the same time, each en-
gineer laughing at the Joke he would have
on his competitor vhen the break would be-
discovered. As soon az he stopped az the
Mexico water tank the Alton man called across
the right Of way:
HOY far you goin' without vour tail

The Wabash man, observing for the first
time his " preiicsment said:
Gosh: hut ! thought you wac vhistlin'
for your own hind end.
Ditto, Bud" exclaimed he Of the Chicago
