President T. c. Parsons of Columbia
Typographical Union of this city today gave
out the following statement made by James
NJ. Lynch president of the International
Typographical Union, concerning the NOR
tuary feature of the printers organiza-
ton:
1T seems to be almost an instinct with
man to provide for his burial after death.
Men have been known-those in poverty-to
la boriously collect and cling to a small sum
for burial purposes. depriving themselves
of the necessaries of life in order to retain
this money. because of the horror of filling
pauper's grave Many associations pro-
vide for the interment of their members by
a burial fund, and especially is this true of
trade unions-perhaps all or nearly all Of
them.
1T was to be expected that as intelligent
workngmen the printers would be found in
the lead with such movement. While the
greater number of their local associations
have burial funds of their own from which
to provide for decent interment of their
members, the International Typographical
Union sends out from its home office in the
Newton Claypool building. Indianapolis,
Ind, to the officers of each subordinate
union SO for each death Of member IN
good standing reported to 1t. While this IS
but a modest amount with which to pay the
expenses of funeral. yet. added to that
very acceptable sum-in some cities as much
as $5OO-which may be regarded as life In
surance as well as a burial fund.
The disbursements in this way of this
one parent union from May 1. 1892. to May
1, 1901 amounted to s4i3 105, and in the
year 1907 to $30.2T0. BY this burial fund
every member is guaranteed a respectable
funeral-not an act Of charity. for each
member pays his share-and there is enough
left at least to enable his dependents to
live until plans can be made for the future.
THE death rate in the International Typo
graphical Union for the year ending May l.
1906, was LA per cent Of the average mem
bershp, or little more than IL per 1000.
The average death rate since the estab-
lishment of the burial fund has been 1.21
per cent-about II per 1000.
THE death benefit features of trade
unions perhaps do not cut much Of a fig
ufe in the statistics of economics. but in
vestigation will develop that very consider
able sums are devoted to this purpose. and
1t is also greatly to the credit of the print
ers that it is very rarely that member
of their society his family becomes a
charge on the public. living or dead

CALLS WIRE TRUST A PIPE
MACKAY SAYS NOTHING IN
TELEGRAPH COMBINE.
Declares Postal and Western Union
Are as Much Rivals
as Ever.

NEW YORK, July 10.-Clarence Mackay,
president of the Postal Telegraph Cable
Company, declares that 'all this talk about
the Western Union Telegraph Company and
the Postal Telegraph Cable Company work.
ing in harmony is nonsense" If two COM
panies ever competed in the United States,
he said. these two companies are Compel
ing, and the competition is fierce and bitter.
Mr.. Mackay's statements were made in
commenting upon the action of Attorney
General William s. Jackson of New York.
who yesterday asked justice of the New
York state supreme court to appoint a
| referee to secure evidence that the West
ern Union and Postal companies have
formed combination in restraint of COM
petition.
Mr.. Mackay said:
IF two companies ever competed in the
United States these two telegraph COM
panies are competing. and always have
been. AT times the competition is even
manufacturer in the United States. wher-
ever We reach, will bear witness to the
truth of this statement.
Is the Only Real Thing.
I'VE are litigating with the wecte.n
Union all over the country in regard to
railroad rights Of way. In fact, the tre-
mendous fight between the Pennsylvania
railroad and the Western Union was due
soeiy-to the fact that we got that business
| away from the Western Union.
THE Western Union is trying to exclude
US from all union depots. and have just
succeeded in excluding US from the Bir-
mingham union depot, which Is, perhaps,
the finest union depot in this country at
present. and we intend to take that matter
into the courts to set aside the monopolistic
contract between the Birmingham union
depot and the Western Union"
Mr.. Mackay called attention to the cable
! in Cuba, which the Postal Company is now
| laying, to its Atlantic cables, land lines and
new route, which, he said, the company
is about to construct through the Nevada
gold fields to the Pacific coast evidence
of that company's competition with the
Western Union. He added:
I'VE are the only company that ever did
really compete with the Western Union and
succeeded in doing So

PURPOSE OF SCREENS.
Interesting Controversy Settled by the
Controller of the Treasury

Controller OF the Treasury.
An exceedingly unique contention has
sprung up between the controller of the
Treasury and the supervising architect 8
Office of the Treasury as to whether win
dow and door screens are to be regarded
as furniture or ventilating apparatus. The
controller holds that they are ventilatng
apparatus, and as what he says Is final in
the matter of expenditure of appropriations
ventilating apparatus is what these useful
things must be officially known hereafter.
The contention arose as to whether door
and window screens should be paid for out
Of the appropriations for furniture or for
ventilation. The chief mechanical and cleo
trical engineer of the supervising architect s
office asked that the controller reconsider
decisions rendered by him some time ago
that the appropriations for ventilation were
the ones from which the cost of screens
should be paid. The electrical engineer
says
I'm no case, either In the marine hos
pitfalls, quarantine stations or public build
ings, are screens used for the purpose Of
ventilation, for their use restricts. rather
than aids. the free circulation of air."
The controller calls this statement a mis-
use Of language and a perverson of fact"
He declares, regarding the contention that
the primary use of screens is to keep out
mosquitoes: 1T Is not doubted that the
wooden doors or glass windows. when kept
closed or down, will keep out mosquitoes
and other insects, and probably better than
screens placed in said openings" He as
serts that the primary use of screens Is to
let in light and air and to facilitate ventiIa-
ton. If not. the keeping out of mosquitoes
would be better served by keeping windows
and doors closed.
The controller stands by his former de-
cisions and directs that the costs be
charged to appropriations for ventilatlng
apparatus.

An Unexplained Mystery.

Little Rock, Dec. g. While standing in the center of the street crossing of Center and Second Saturday afternoon, w. H. Barnes and two other gentle men were surprised to see an eye glass, similar to those worn by Englishmen, drop at their feet, apparently from the clouds. All three gentlemen became greatly interested at once, and examined the sky carefully, to determine if possible, the source from which the eye glass came. Far in the distance they saylthey saw dark object, about the size of a derby, rapidly receding from view toward the southwest. Mr. Barnes, who is a well known travelling man in this city, makes no effort to account for the unex- plained appearance of the eye glass, but he has the eye glass to prove that he and his friends are not the victims of an optical illus. ion, and invites argument to show the manner of the arrival of the glass.
 The story gained circulation during the afternoon, and consid- erable comment was caused, many declaring that the eye glass came from an air ship which passed over Little Rock. Others went so far as to assert that the air ship came from Eng land, and that those in the car became so interested in the city of Little Rock, that one of their number, in leaning over to view the beautiful City of Roses, lost his mOnocle. But no definite in formation has been secured re- garding the matter, and it is con sidered to be great mystery Mir. Barnes and his friends are prohibitionists.
