AG Ac Ou IlhC u llldA OFCiuCdlu an animated discussion yesterday be- tween two Boston parties, man and woman. They were forced to oc- cupy a seat in the same car of the Boston express which left New York yesterday at 1:01. The conversation was carried on vigorously for some time, the man being an out and out non-unionist, while the woman up- held the union men in an able man. ner. She contended that it was their right to organize and to better their condition if possible by every
 legal method The man admitted this much, hut claimed that the men in getting an eight hour day and
 higher wages forced the capitalists and money men of the country who control the commodities to raise the prices on the necessaries of life every time there was raise in wages or a reduction in the hours of labor. They are biting off one end what is put on the other, said the man.
 Don't you think some of the manu- lecturers and corporation men are
 making too big profit on their in- vestment at the expense of the labor ing man, and that is what causes the trouble?" Yes" said the man, but how are you going to prevent them from doing it?" T wish there was some day to grasp and settle the subject. Until there is unionism will prevail" said the woman, and here the As You Like It man lost the balance of the argument, but would not be at all surprised to know that the man was converted to unionism before he reached the Hub.
 A beautiful boy, apparently about
 years of age, strolled into EX- change place this morning. and after taking look at the big build ings concluded that he was in a strange place and commenced to cry with all his might. A few women tried to console him. and as nobody knew him it was thought best to take him to the police station. He went all right until he reached the doorway, when he stopped and re- fused to enter. He didn't like the lookup, he said, and wanted to go home. Finally, after a little coaxing he said his name was Martin Millef and that he lived on Liberty street At this juncture John P. Sheehan, clerk in the office of the superinten- dent of streets on Benedict street, came along and confirmed what the youngster had said. adding that he saw hi mlots of times playing along the watch shop fence. Believing that he belonged on Liberty street, he was turned over to Reserve Off, cer John Sullivan, who escorted him down there and found that the lit. tie tot had made no mistake in his name and that of the street where he lived.
 When the trolley cars happen to be on time on the North Main street line nowadays they impress it upon the public by dumping a few pas sengers against he vitrified bulck pavement of North square. This af- ternoon about 1:l5 near the water ing trough a man was dashed to the ground with violence that caused all who witnessed the act to expect to see his face smashed Further than tearing the knees out of his pants happened to him. But he came near smashing the conductor in the face. As in all such instances the conductor took out his book to enter the mans name in 1t and all the particulars of the accident. but the man instead of giving him in- formation went for him and they had 1t hot in words for a few minutes. At that the conductor was glad to get away as he was not obliged to report the occurrence to the local head office.
 Constable W. B. Lannen and J. o'Gorman went to New Haven yesterday on official business and they set out to get a New Ha- ven shave, because they needd it. But they looked in vain for a shop because the barbers in most places were out on strike for a half holiday Friday afternoon. Constable Lannen iId not mind floating his golden whiskers for a half day but Constable 0'Gorman did not take very we'll to the hardship of wearing blonde DOne- gals in his perambulations through the Elm ciV. The barbers were out for fair and some of them are out ret and the two constables had to re-
