UNION LABEL IN CHICAGO
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
CHICAGO, March 24.-Easter hats in
Chicago must bear the union label The
Milliners' union has sent forth it's man-
date. Unless this mandate be complied
with many an astonished pastor may
be confronted with divided and whisy
pering congregation on Eastern morn
ing, according to Mrs, Eleanor Baker.
Mrs. Baker was elected president OF the
Milliners union last week.
Nor must the label be hidden. II will
not do TO bury the mark Of the toilers
under the mass OF flowers.
Each church In the city will have It's
business agent" from the union, and
wearers of bonnets will be subjected
to sharp scrutiny as they pass IN ana
out of the gothic portals.
The business agents" may do noth-
ing more than take notes. They may
follow the plan OF other unions-start
boycotts on wearers Of non-union mill
linery.
Mrs. Baker the president OF the
union, said that she would make im-
mediate demands upon manufacturers
for the adoption OF the label. She did
not say that she would demand the
"closed shop."

Rain Brings Relief
w Associated Press.

BY ASSDCIHItU TTtS5s
BAKERSFIELD, Cal, March "a
During the past twenty-four hours
heavy showers have fallen in Bakers
field and vicinity. The rain Is needed,
as there has only been six inches so
far this season. The train service Is
still demoralized. No mails have ar
rived today and the evening trains on
both lines are posted on the bulletin
boards as indefinitely late.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-25

at 10 o'clock Saturday night, was
twelve hours late. Ten trains going
east were running on similar time.
Heavy Fall Of Snow
A heavy fall Of snow in the sierras
broke down all of the wires at Cape
Horn Saturday night and today there
was only one wire working as far as
Colfax. Trains are therefore running
without orders and are proceeding
slowly
There Is no telling when the line be-
tween Sacramento and Davisville can
be repaired. A large part Of the road
bed has been washed out.
A wire has been secured north as far
as Dunsmuir and trains are proceeding
as far as Redding. 1t will be many
days before traffic to Portland can be
resumed, as there Is a bridge out above
Redding and several washouts.

Marks of Distinction

What the Victoria Cross is to the Brit
ish soldiers, the Triangle A" is to cigars
the mark of highest merit.
Only soldiers of proven merit wear
the cross.
Only the best cigars on earth bear
the "A" (Triangle A.
You record an emphatic protest
against low-quality high-proft cigars
every time you demand the Triangle
A" brands.
When you buy cigars
get your moneys North
and be sure of it.!
Choose your cigars from boxes bearing
the triangle A" mark of merit-then
you know you're getting greater value
than your money can buy any other way.
The "Triangle A" Identifies the product of the
American Cigar Company-the only complete
organization with the only 'stemmeries" equip
ment for scientifically developing the ripest fra
GRANGE of the best tobacco for making smooth,

you in their best smoking condition.
The triangle A" on a cigar box guarantees
full value, cleanliness, and unvarying quality.
The NeW CRE1MO

GOVERNMENT FLEET STILL AT
WORK ON THE KENTUCKY.

The medium stage of water which
has prevailed in the Kentucky river
during the present fall has enabled
the government repair fleet to re-
main at work later in the season than
is usual, and it is not expected to ar
rive at the winter rendezvous in this
city until near about Christmas. The
fleet has been out since quite early
in the spring, and it is understood,
have performed valuable services.
All of the locks which have been
completed are in excellent working
order, with the exception of Lock No.
5, at Tyrone, and new gates will be
placed in position at that place the
coming week, on account of which the
river will be closed to upper points
on the stream for week or more.

BUILDING OPERATIONS SLOWING
UP.

While building operations in Frank
fort have Stacked up 40 some effect,
and some teams and laborers have
been laid off, there is no sign that
the prosperity of the Capital City
is threatened. Alarmists point to the
fact that operations have ceased
until the spring months shall have set
in, as a sure indication that the
zenith of the building and business
boom has been reached, and that the
volume must necessarily grow smaller
from this time forward.
The latter prediction is absurd, as
any one who has studied the situa-
tion at all can not but fail to see.
The conditions are such that even
though a sure enough money panic
should strike the country, it would,
not affect Frankfort to an appreciable
extent, as this city will continue to
grow at a rapid rate for years to
come. There is nothing to prevent,
and every sign favors further de-
velopments along all local lines. The
calamity howler has raised up his
voice, but few have hearkened to his
bleatings.
