HAPPENINGS

"When | came TO this road four
gears ago, the toughest joint
have ever seen was this town of
------," said the vice-presi-
don't and general manager Of n
railroad ont in the northwest.
''rhese men were drinking, fight
ing, swearing aud smashing ears.
! secured an appropriation from
the company for the erection of
Y. NJ. G. A. building, and as n
result of that work we have diff
ferent class of men, the expense
from accidents reduced 20 the mini
mum and less labor troubles.
Most Of the men who run these
ere trains in the summer months
are not nice boys from the east
but Of the "boomer class who mi
glate when winter arrives. The see
letary of this Association, which
is the popular center for every
railroad man in the town. keeps
the respect of these men. He Is
six feet six inches tall, and built
in proporsion and when he has to
take two of the "boomers" by the
collars to instill respect in them
for their surroundings, he is equal
10 the job.
Every man of the road is a
friend to the secretary. He has their
confidence TO such AN extent that
when the Railway Trainmen Order
had difficulties they asked him to
"nx it up with the company"
rather than send their Grievance
Comn,ittee 10 the officials. On the
nthcr hand, the officials have such
confdence in his Judgment and his
ability THAT they go to him with
}their difficulties about the men,
aud he acts as arbitrator between
them. There was no Protestant
church in town. now there is one
lwiih large membership and the
nGsfor and the secretary frequently
evchGnge duties.
last year twenty-nine men who
had been discharged for drinking
were turned over to this secretary
to he taken 10 st. Paul for a
cguse in n drink-cme home. OF
This number twenty-sevcn cf them
are today good employees Of the
company, caring for their families
and paying for homes.
The Association building although
but four years old has been com
pletely outgrown and the company
has erected an addition as large
as the original, which is to be
opened July The superintendent
of the road has said, "Before we
had this Association our depart
ment at this point was very bad +.
Men had no other place to visit
and spend their time except the
saloons. Their bedrooms were not
much larger than a bed. Now 602
of the men are members of he As
sociation, although the population

Il RESTORATION LEAGUE.
Fifty american Branches to WOrk
for 4boIition of Child Marriages.

An organization which has attracted little atten-
ton heretofore, but which may eventually accom-
psh revolution, is the Indo-American Woman $
Restoration League. The object Of this body Is the
abolition child marriage in India and If its plans
do not miscarry IL will be an international or
ganization, with branches in India, Holland Bel
gium, England and other countries.
Mrs. c. 7. Wallace, the founder OF the league
70 India about a month ago TO organize a
society there, and during her absence Of two Or
three years she expects 10 organize European
leagues also. The New York branch Of the Indo-
American Restoration League, OF which Mrs Emil
Kuichlng is president, is partially detfaylng t-e
expenses OF Mrs. Wallace, and the expenses Of a
member OF her party are being met by Ca!liorhia
woman Of wealth.
Indian organization will appeal TO the British gov
ernment raise the OF marriage TO sixteen.
and the other organizations will join in the pcti-
ton II is necessary that the appeal should come
from India. because II is the policy Of the British
government to interfere with native customs,
although Il is said be not only willing but aaX-
ious TO abolish this a few of the more en-
lightened in India also anxious TO abolish
child marriage according TO Mrs Wallace but
the practice is SO bound up with the religion and
customs Of the country that they do not dare 70
come out openly against IT,
II was the invitation Of three PaTsees that
Mrs Wallace began the Investigations which led TO
the organization OF the Indo-Amerlcan Woman s
Restoration League and it was their idea that by
getting possession Of the facts and publishing
them to the world Il sentiment would be created
that would react upon India. The Parsees them
selves do not practise child marriage.
In her. lectures given IN New York about eighteen
months ago Mrs Wallace stated that child mar
riage was a fornIality, many people
supposed, and that IL accompanied by cruel
ties and barbarites from which even little girls as
young as five years not exempt
The name OF the league was chosen to ernpha-
size the that the women OF India were not al
ways as they to-day.
In ancient times" says Mrs. Wallace. they
occupied position of great honor and dignity,
and II is to this that we wish to restore them"
There are about fifty branches Of the league IN
America. Mrs Rossiter Johnson is one Of the vice
presidents of the New York branch, and Mrs
Julian Heath IS secretary.
