URGED TO GO TO BROOKLYN
NEW YORK "RENT STRIKERS
ARE REsiEGED BY AGENTS.
Many Tenement House Meetings to
Plan Resistance to Eviction
by Landlords.

New York, Dec. 2S.-Real estate
agents from Brooklyn went into the
crowded tenement house districts on
the East side of Manhattan Friday and
tried to do missionary work in their
own interests by urging the tenapts,
who are now engaged in crusade for
lower rents, to move to Brooklyn.
But activity of outsiders did not
seem to disturb the local real estate
owners and agents. One of them said
that the East slider is clannish crea-
ture and likes to associate with the
friends and neighbors whom he has
known since his arrival from Europe.
"A majority of them come right
here from the steamers that bring
them over, or from the immigrant sta
tion," he said. They stay here, too,
until such time as they have earned
their little piles and can move else
where"
At the Socialist party headquarters
on Grand street it was learned that
the evictions which have been made
since the rent strike was decided upon
have no real connection with the
movement. Such evictions are for
failure to pay rent for the present and
past months. The crucial point will
come, if at all, when the collectors
make their january calls.
There were tenement house meet
ings on almost every block Friday
night For the most part these were
impromptu gatherings, without any
attempt at organization, but each was
marked by many declarations of war
against the landlords Many of the
tenants were of the opinion that their
end could best be accomplished by re-
sisting attempts at collection of pres
ent rents and affording shelter, to per-
sons evicted. There were others who
favored more drastic measures and
many tenants discussed combined
stand against the marshals in the
| event Of evictions.
Pauline Newman, who is reptued tc
be the woman leader of the strike
| movement, is in favor of moderation
She has told the women associated
with her that they can hope to wiz
by united action if they are careful tc
keep within the law, and that the land
lords, If united front is presented
to them, will be bound to yield rather
than fight thousands of dispossess
cases in the municipal courts.

French Proverb That Proves Itself
True in Cresco.


True in Cresco.
There is a French proverb, Tobacco
is the friend of man, that is more true
than the average. Man is the only be-
ing that smokes. Monkeys have imi-
tated man in all other ways, even ac-
quiring fondness for liquors, but they
never could be taught smoking. Smok-
ing is distinctly masculine pleasure,
and when man has good cigar like
Wadsworth Bros Chicos in his mouth,
he is care free and ready for trouble.
P. A. Clemmer, the local agent for
Chicos, says that many of his lawyer
customers will not take difficult case
until they have box of Chicos at hand.
From pure enjoyment any lover of a
good cigar can be no more perfectly
satisfied than with Wadsworth Bros.
Chico.
Go to P. A. Clemmer's Drug store
to-day and select one of these clean
Havana filled cigars. The price, Sc.
straight, will not brighten you.
