Chicago, May 2.-Labor has decided
to abandon the plan to file articles

litical associates and dependents"
Instead of impeachment, resolutions
at meeting of 10000 workmen last
night were adopted and an open letter

DESERTED AND IN DIRE NEED.
County Court VIII Help Mrs. Martin
Thomas and Children.

a pitifuI story was told to the
county court this morning when Mrs
Martin, Thomas applied for aid for
herself and four children. Mrs.
Thomas told how her husband had
deserted her and the children over a
month ago and OF her struggle to
support the family. She had been
working steadily, but her earnings
were not sufficient to feed and clothe
the entire family.
According to the narrative of a
witness and Mrs. Thomas, her hus-
hand had never been very intimate
with hard labor and used what lit
tie he did earn for the purchase Of
liquor. She said he was cook by
trade, but had not followed his oc-
cupation for over a year, and left
Pendleton with the excuse of seek
ing employment elsewhere, and that
she did not expect to see him again.
Mrs. Thomas said that If she
could get enough help to buy fuel
and some food that she would be
able to clothe the children and keep
them in school. She has been work.
ing during the day and washing, cook
ing and caring for the family in the
evening.
The county commissioners readily
gave the needed assistance in order
that temporary relief might be had.
In commenting en- the case the
the past week or two.there had been
coses of deserted wives before him
for help, but rarely did he see as de-
serving case as this. That the wo-
man had been and was doing all that
she could do to be self-supporting.
and he only wished he could reach
such husbands with criminal prose-
, cution.

Fire Chief Joe Jones has issued an
edict that henceforth the general

were fortunate enough to be on
hand when the teams left the de-
partment house, to get quick trans
portation to the scene of fires by rid
ing with the hose cart team. The
chief has been forced to put an end
to this system and from now on only
members Of the fire department and
reporters will he allowed to use the
