Just now the labor movement seems
10 have arrived at crucial period in
its history. The signs OF the times
point toward the further realization OF
others dreams and others daring.
While 1t is true that labor always has

a crisis, nevertheless this is our crisis.

Holes in Our Streets.

A telegraph messenger, riding a
bicycle along Fourteenth street,
near Thomas Circle, was thrown and
hurt yesterday by "a hole in the
asphalt. \ passer-by wao saw the
accident took pains to count the
breaks in the pavement within a
block of the circle on Fourteenth
street alone. He found twenty-twOl
Within half an hour an automo-
bile was caught in a trench between
an iron trap and the street car
track in front of the Treasury
building. The car was jo1ted so hard
the occupants were all but thrown
into the street. On examination the
trench proved TO be about four
inches deep.
Statements from owners of car
riages and automobiles made to
this paper from many sources in
the course of the past six weeks
indicate that the need for repairing
our streets is practically the same
throughout the city. Allowing for
the overstatement natural under
such circumstances, the serious
judgment of all who complain is
that the asphalt has never been in
a worse condition.
The explanation is not likely to
allay our dissatisfaction. 1t appears
the greater portion of our down
town paving was done about twenty
years ago. The average life of an
asphalt pavement is from fifteen
TO twenty years. In consequence,
this same greater portion of pave
ment is now worn out.
To put the streets affected in
good condition, the city should
either resurface them or lay them
new In Buffalo-the capitals great
asphalt rival-that is what would
be done. IN Washington there is
only too much reason 10 expect de-
lay until the streeys are far worse
than they are now. In the mean
time we must be content with an
annual allowance-last year il was
$500, ,000-too little even to fill all
the holes.

.DRESShAKER DECLARES
SHE IS BEWITGHED
Partisan Woman Shoots Her Friend
Declaring SpiritualiSm Is Response
BILE for Her Misfortunes.

PARIS, May S.-A young dressmaker
named Juliette Graneche fired five
shots at a friend of hers, Nine. Lheri-
teau. clairvoyant, after having ac-
cused her of attempting to injure
by sorcery.
The two women had been very init
mate, and had studied spiritualism to-
gether. Nine. Lheriteau had shown her
pupil how TO bring misfortune upon
an enemy. She burned n small piece
of wax in the shape OF a heart. to
represent the soul of the person in
question, in the flame of a candle, at
the same time muttering incantations.
She then blew out the flame of the
candle, and from that moment the be-
witched person would never know a
moments peace.
Mile. Graneche had suffered a num-
ber OF misfortunes during the last fort
night. and imagined that her friend
had cast her spell over her.
