SIX STRIKE.
But Later Half of the Men Return
to Work.

San Francisco-All the union men
employed on the Hotel Fairmont were
called off Wednesday by order of P.
H. Mccarthy, president of the Building
Trades Council. Six hundred obeyed
the order, but after excited meetings
had been held on the street, more
than half of them returned to work,
declaring the order of Mccarthy to
be tyrannical and unjust. The men
will take the matter up with their re-
spective unions. McCarthy's order
grew out of his controversy with the
Independent union of electrical work
ers, which was formed here some 9me
ago in defiance of his orders.

Western lea
And here unon the gate, my "baby

With joyous wave and shout, he sees
me up the walk
''Oh, daddy-horseback ride" |
kneel-and prance and balk
And thus a charger, wild, champs
proudly up the road
To where We greet the queen-the
mother of my load.

And tbsows his rider bold, in til

The summer days are gone, and o ell

But up above, in realms where little
boys are glad,

Curraht Facts.

Greece has an absolute natural
monopoly of currant production
which averages about 100, 600 tons
a year. The seedless grapes, which
when dried are known as currants,
grow nowhere else in the world.
1t takes about four pounds of fresh
grapes to make pound of dried cui.
rants. No artificial processes are
used In curing the best qualities are
dried in the shade, all others In the
sun.
The United States consumes 80,
900, 600 pounds of dried currants a
year, less than half pound a head.
Great Britian's consumption is three
pounds per capita, and Hollands six
pounds.
Dietists who have made a study of
the food value of currants say that
% per cent. Of their weight is sol
uble in water, and that currants con-
tain - per cent. of nutritiye value,
or more than twice as much nourish
ment as lean beef.
As a concentrated food, Sir Francis
Laking, King Edwards physician,
has lately pointed out that the 13
per cent. of grape sugar contained
in currants makes them valuable
aid in digestion, allays nervousness,
and prevents nervous exhaustion.
To safeguard the industry upon
which the welfare of the whole ma
tion depends. owing to the fact that
currants form 90 per cent. of Greece ;
total production, heavy penalties are
imposed upon growers who pick their
crops before it is ripe or pack it be-
fore it is thoroughly dried and clean

MOSBY AS A WORD FIGHTER

Colonel Mosby," said an Englishwoman
who had heard these charges, "is it true that
you deserted Lees army?"
No, madam" replied the Colonel, Lees
army deserted me-
After the war a soldier said to him,
General Blank says that he's tired of all
this talk about your men having done all the
fighting that was done on the Southern side, "
he said to the Colonel. What shall tell him
you say about it"
Colonel Mosby read the mans malicious in
tention. "You tell General Blank that l say
l am too" was the Delphian response.
A Southern General who was invited to ad-
dress Mosby's men at one of their reunions
drew a contrast between the poor regulars
sleeping in wet trenches and living on hard
tack" and Mosby's men, sleeping in feather
beds and living on the fat of the land"
Colonel Mosby was not present; but the
remarks came to his ears. "In war;" was his
comment, the paramount duties of a COM
mander are two: To take the best possible care
of his own troops. and to inf1ict the greatest
possible damage upon the enemy. Now, if
kept my troops in such comfort and even
luxury as General Blank maintains l did,
and if inflicted on the enemy as much dam
age as the official reports of the Northern
officers admit did, then, instead of criticiz-
ing me. General Blank ought to rank me as
greater military leader than Napoleon"

COLONEL JOHN S. MOSBY, the famous
- cavalry leader of the Southern army,
is as keen with his tongue as he ever was with
his sword when it spread panic through the
Federal outposts in the '6o's.
He has always maintained that the South
went to war over slavery, not secession. as
claimed by later apologists of that section.
One evening, while sitting in the Occidental
Hotel in San Francisco, fire eating ex-Con-
federate from Alabama approached him and
entered into lengthy dissertation to prove
that the South had never fought to perpetuate
slavery, but only in defense of States Rights"
Colonel Mosby bore it in silence for time !;
but finally, growing impatient, Look here" j"
he interrupted, what were we quarreling
with the North about from the time of the
Missouri Compromise in 1920 to the day
Sumter was fired on? Slavery, wasn't it"
"Ye-e-es," reluctantly admitted the other.
well" continued Colonel Mosby dryly,
during the four years l was in the Southern
army l was always under the impression we
were fighting about the same thing we had
been quarreling about"
His course in voting for Grant in 1872 was
bitterly resented by many of his old comrades
of the Virginia army. and in the heat of
politics. it was charged that he had de-
serted the Southern cause; and this. though
in actual war he had kept his battle front
for three weeks after Lee had surrendered.
