HOWLEY Gets BOOST
FROM HIS CO-W0RKERS
Present Minneapolis Business
Agent With signet Ring as
Token of Appreciation.
Popular Agent of Building
Trades Council. is: Unani-
mously Re- elected to Office.

Minneapolis. Feb. lone of the
most remarkable annual meetings in
the history Of the local Building Trades
council was held at Alexander's hall
last Thursday night. Ordinarily the
annual meeting is an exciting one,
mostly for the reason that 1t is upon
that occasion that the election Of off,
GERS is held. But this year complete
reversal was experienced and instead
Of bitter rivalry for the principal off,
ces, there was an unanimity Of opinion
which might be termed marvellous.
Interest centers upon the selection Of
the secretary-treasure which office
carries with it the business agency.
For the first time, as far as is known,
the place was filled without a contest.
office for the last year, was unani-
mously chosen for the coming year.
Besides the honor thus conferred up
on him, Mr.. Howley was presented
with a handsome signet ring, the gift
of the business agents located at
headquarters. On the top Of the ring
Is a painters pallet, the colors being
represented by six precious. stones of
various colors.
While the work of the secretary
treasurer has been Of character to
test the ability Of any man, Mr.. How
ley has proved himself fully equal to
any emergency. In the year many
disputes came up, some Of which as
sumed a serious aspect, but In every
case matter were handled in such a
way that not a single strike resulted.
Nor has a crew Of workmen been
called off" single job. This Is a
record unprecedented in the history
Of the building trades in this city, and
there is a feeling Of satisfaction both
In the unions and among the employ
ers at Mr.. Howey's reelection.

UNION Of BARTENDERS
OPENED WITH PRAYER
Rev. Charles StetZle Made Re-
markable Discovery While
Visiting Unions.
Finds That Bartenders Have
a. Chaplain and He Starts
Meeting Right.

1t is not generally known that every
union affiliated with the Hotel and
Restaurant Employees, International
Alliance and Bartenders' League be-
gins It's meetings with prayer Each
union has chaplain and it is his duty
to open the meetings. This feature
was surprise to the Rev. Charles E
Stetzle, who attended a meeting of the
Kewaunee Bartenders' Union. The
Rev. Mr.. Stetzle was a union ma
chinist, but several years ago was or
dained minister in the Presbyterian
church. Although he had been a
member Of a trade union for many
years, and in fact still pays dues, the
meeting Of the bartenders was a sur
prise to him and he commended Jerre
Il. Sullivan, secretary of the Interna-
tional Union, for the innovation. Sec
rotary Sullivan, whose modesty in re-
gard to his. own accomplishments is
well known, is the originator of the
office Of chaplain. Sullivan is also a
philosopher, and this has made it DOS
sible for him to reach his present posi-
ton. Defeat never disturbs him. It
only makes him more determined.
Having a difficult class of workers to
get together, as they have been de-
ce1ved so many times, his success has
been phenomenal. According to the
Rev. Mr.. Stetzle other unions could
follow the example Of the bartenders
and walters with profit.

CLEAN WHOLE BUNCH
OUT IN MINNEAPOLIS
Trades Assembly of Flour
City Elects Entire New Set
Of Officers Save One.
Thos. Van Lear is Elected
President, Morgan of Steam
Engineers Chosen Vice.

Minneapolis, Jan. 24-Some surprises
developed in the Trades Assembly cleo
ton last Wednesday evening" With
the exception Of Max Conrad, financial
secretary-t treasurer, an entirely new
set Of officers was chosen. Thomas
Van Lear, Twin City business agent
of the Machinists' union, was elected
president without opposition. Mr.. Van
Lear is a man of wide and varied ex-
perience in the trade union field.
Michael Mogan of the Stationery En-
g1neers was chosen vice president. He
Is we'll known in the local labor field
and is an aggressive worker. He has
been actively identified with the trade
union work locally for a quarter Of a
century, having been prominent in the
old Knights of Labor.
S. j. Spencer of the Painters union
was elected recording secretary. Mr..
Gray declining to be again candidate.
Mr.. Spencer is also an old-timer in the
union field.
John Kirby of the Cigarmakers'
union was elected sergeant at arms.
Mr.. Kirby is president of his own
union, has been a delegate to the State
Federation and the State Blue Label
league, and has been particularly &C.
tive in behalf Of the label movement.
It was decided to introduce the old
system Of registration of deleeates
which was in vogue three years ago,
and this made necessary the appoint
ment Of registery clerk. The choice
fell to L. H. Ford Of the Boot and Shoe
Workers. Each delegate will be pro-
vided with a card upon which will be
printed the dates Of meetings, and this
card will be stamped as often as the
delegate attends. This plan was found
to work we'll while it was in effect. as
under it a delegates union, by refer
ence to the card, could tell the number
Of meetings he attended.
An effort will be made to inject new
life into the assembly, and the new
officers have several projects in mind
which are intended to give the organ1-
zation a better standing. All are
agreed that for some time past the
central body as not been as energetic
and influential as it might have been.
though this should not be taken to re-
fleet in any way upon past officers

FROM the Youths Companions:
L suppose said that matchmaker.
you do not know that watches, like
human beings, sometimes don't 'eo' for
the very good reason that they are
tired. Sometimes a watch is brought
to me out Of order and 1T Is fairly
clean. When it becomes silky and re-
fuses to go except by fits and starts
the best thing to do is to lay it aside
and give it a rest. The. mechanism
IN tired watch seems to be in per-
fect condition, but it won't work. The
fact is that long and faithful service
has thrown 1t slightly out Of adjust
ment in perhaps ten different places.
scraping and cleaning and readjust-
ing fine watch Is the worst thing
that could be done to it. A months
rest will instead cause the works slow
ly to readjust themselves, and at the
end of that time after careful oiline
the watch will go as cheerfully as
ever"

DONT'S FOR HOUSEkEEPER RS,

At a recent symposium between
housewives and helpers, with a view
to finding out where difficulties on
both sides lay and possibly adjusting
them, the following don't were en-
phasized:
Helpers Point Of View.
Don't call us servants. We prefer
the name helper, household worker or
maid.
Don't neglect to pay us promptly.
Don't look cross at us all the time.
Don't engage us for general house.
work and then expect us to be skilled
cooks. mattresses and laundresses.
Don't forget that to do good work
we must be well fed and have a COM
Portable and restful bed.
Don't keep us in too close. Let us
have one afternoon a week, every
other Sunday afternoon and evening.
besides an occasional evening out.
All work and no play makes a dull
helper.
Don't think we are machines with
no care for social life Let us have
a. friend to tea once in a. while and
callers IN the evening.
Don't expect us to be on the iump
every minute in the day. If we finish
our work let us have an hours rest
or leisure to sew for ourselves.
Don't let the children BOSS us.
Don't think we can be always tidv
with no privacy for bathing nor time
for keeping our clothes in order.
Don't make us take our baths In
the kitchen laundry tubs. We are not
all gymnasts.
Housewives Standpoint.
Don't conceal breakage nor Law
everything to the cat.
Don't use you employers tbilet ar
ticles or writing desk on the sly. If
you wish pen and ink ask for them
but don't help yourself to personal he
longings without leave.
Don't regard 1t a. burden to be oblie-
ing.
Don't go around with chip on your
shoulder because you have to work.
Don't be slovenly about your work
or your appearance.
Don't neglect the care Of YOUR own
room.

Don't be eye servants. Try to- do

whether she is present or absent.
Don't expect to have all the dafntfes
from the table for yourself-the finest
fruit, the breast Of chicken, the ten
derloin of steak, the cream of the
milk.
Don't make it necessary for the en-
ployer to keep supplies locked.
Don't waste coal, gas or food he.
cause you don't have to pay for them.
Some Timely Hints.
Newspapers spread fiat under
mattress give great desd Of warmth
Prune juice on dry cereals makes a
nice change from cream.
Cold baked potatoes, sliced thin.
then put in a baking dish with salt
pepper, butter and milk, make a bet
ter scallop than raw potatoes.
Apple pie is delicious with whipped
cream or vanilla Ice cream.
A good dish for luncheon or sumner
is a baked potato with one end re-
moved and enough of the inside to
permit soft boiled egg that has had
its shell taken of, dropped in. Season
with VT salt, pepper and butter and serve
hot

VINEGAR CLEANS COPPER.

Copper utensils, like brass, may be
frightened by vinegar and salt or by
oxalic acid. Ordinary ironware may
be secured with finely sifted coal
ashes, and galvanized ironware may
be wiped off with q cloth dipped In
kerosene. Tins may be cleaned with
kerosene and wood ashes or with soap
and sand or rubbed with crumpled
newspaper.

STITCH WITHOUT THREAD.

lone of the easiest methods of hem
stitching Is to first draw the threads
and haste the hem neatly. Then take
the work to the sewing machine, and
with the stitch regulated to the length
desired, stitch without therad, close to
the edge, as in ordinary hem. This
produces line of perforations accu-
rately marked, which is very easy to
follow.

BRUSH FOR DISHES.

A long handled curved brush such
as is used for cleaning silver will do
much to tighten the disa greeableness
Of dish washing. 1t perfectly displaces
the dish cloth and does twice as effect
i've service in every way as a mop.

REMOVES GREASE STAINS.

One of the hest preparations for TAX
ing out grease stains is made by a
mixture of one pint of deodorized ben
zine ,one-half dram each of chloro-
form and alcohol and a few drops Of
cologne. Apply to the coat or gar
ment with a piece Of silk. In washing
solid black goods use one tablespoon
full in each gallon of water. It will

TO MEND CHINA.

To mend broken china powder
small quantity Of lime and take the
white of an egg and mix together in a

be mended. Place the pieces firmly
together and they will soon become set
