To Tell n Fashionable Restaurant.

when l was young" said an old
bachelor, "at all the fashionable res
taurants you wrote your order. That
was the way to distinguish the really
fashionable restaurant. You wrote your
order there, whereas in the common
one you gave 1t to the waiter orally
Ordering is difficult matter. 1t is a
thing, especially when one has guests,
that one is likely to get fiustered over;
hence l always liked to write my Or
der. 1t kept me cool. But a waiter,
standing over me, suggesting dishes
didn't want. hurrying me, had the
power to rattle me completely. But
fashionable restaurants no longer are
to be distinguished by this writing
business. Writing has disappeared
from them. They are to be distin-
guished now by their French menus
bothersome things that call sweet
bread ris de veau, potpie a vol au
vent and leg of mutton gigot."-

Courts of Love.

Courts of love- were established in
the middle ages, when chivalry was at
its height and love the serious occupa-
tion Of life among the higher class of
society. The first court of love" was
established in the south of France in
the twelfth century and was composed
of knights, poets and ladies, and their
decisions on subtle questions connected
with affairs of the heart were given

NEW ROAD IS
STRETCHING OUT
Superintendent May Import
Negroes to Do Work of
Construction.
rspeciaI to Lake County rimes,.

LaPorte, Ind, March 4.-The past
week has witnessed material progress
in the construction of the Goshen,
South Bend & Chicago railroad, the
first division of the Chicago-New York
electric line. Practically twelve blocks
of track have been laid within the cor
porate limits of this city, while ma
terial covers the right of way for a
now being put up and hardly a day
passes that construction material does
not arrive here by the carload. A
monster warehouse has been completed,
and a large cement house is now in
progress of construction. The COM
pany's offices in this city now occupy
two floors of three-story building.
An accounting department has been es-
tablished, while a corps of fifteen en-
gineers and craftsmen are kept con-
stantly employed. Superintendent
Mapledoram, who came here from Mem
phis, Tenn, where he overhauled the
railway system of that city, is bring
ing large number of men to this city,
and If a road building force cannot be
secured here 1t is the company's plan
to bring 800 negroes here from the
south. 1t is figured that a construc-
ton gang of 1000 men can complete
the line between LaPorte and Chi
cago, in addition to building spur
lines into Valparaiso and Hammond,
before January l. 1908. There is now
the absolute belief here that the first
section Of the road will be in operation
in the time specified by the company.

MRS. DUBRIDeE COMPLAINS.
Boarder Threatens to Break the Door
Down.

Sunday afternoon in answer to the
vigorous ringing Of the telephone bell
at the police station Charley See
sprang to his feet expecting TO hear
of another riot over at Gibson.
Instead mans voice was heard to
say that he was being locked out OF his
boarding house BY four women and
that if they did not let him in at once
he would break the door down
1t was evident that the man was in
toxicated but the chief sent officer
Einsle to investigate. He went to the
home of Mrs. Dubridge near the corner
of Sohl and State streets. and was in
formed by her that one of her old
boarders Larry Buckley, whom she
had told could not come back TO board
wanted to get into the house to per-
suade a friend of his to leave the place.
The presence of the officer in the
neighborhood quieted it down consider
ably and there was no more trouble.
Mrs. Dubridge is one of the wives of
c. H. Dubridge. who was recently
killed while driving one of Goldens
wagons.

Walking Delegate Inter
feres With Agreement
With Carpenters.
WORK MUST Be DONE
In Case Of Trouble the Company VIII
Import Men and Rush It's
Building Operations.

Open shop theories and union labor
principles may clash at the Standard
steel Car works on account of the car
penter work. In the local union Of
carpenters it is said that trouble of a
disturbing nature is imminent and that
unless the union schedule OF working
hours is adhered to a strike at the
plant is only a matter Of hours. At
the Standard Steel Car works the Inn
preston is given out that no trouble is
anticipated. one OF the officials even
saying that nothing OF this nature is
known there.
The anticipated clash seemingly
grew out of an agreement that was
reached some time ago between J.
Spauiding, business agent of the East
Chicago union and the Standard Steel
Car company without the consent OF
the district counsel. Charles Harlem.
In the agreement between Spauiding
and the Standard Steel Car company
the East Chicago carpenters are al
lowed to work nine hours a day and
on Saturday afternoons. The carpen-
ters union schedule, however, provides
for a working day OF eight hours with
Saturday afternoons of.
Harlem Takes Hand.
| When Harlem, district counsel OF
the unions, went to the Standard Steel
plant today he was denied admission
as it had been learned that he was
connected with the unions. He prom
ises, however, to see the carpenters and
endeavor to get them to go back to
the recognized schedules or else In
duce them to walk out.
Among the workers of the local
union 1t is said that IN the event Of the
East Chicago carpenters walking ont
the factory builders Will procure car
penters from Butler, Pa, where the
union lines are not so sharply drawn.
What further steps the union men will
then take is not being discussed by the
union as a body, although some of its
members prophesy enough trouble.
Conditions at the Standard Steel Car
plant are such that it is imperative for
the company to get men who will work
the limit, not because of the wages
but rather on account Of the press Of
work. The company has set certain
time for next summer when it intends
to be operating the big plant and there
is still much to be done which must
be completed at all hazards.
II it were possible to work night
gang of carpenters the company would
not hesitate to put one on, but this
being Impossible il made the agree
ment with the East Chicago union.

majority of the committee favors no
action looking to the repeal of the
present law, at least for two years,
and If the committee can report to the
senate that there are still to be some
hearings, the senate cannot in good
conscience demand a report on the
law.
ter, the committee vii probably re-
port against any substantial changes
from the present law. One or two cit
les may be eliminated from its opera
tions to remain for another two years
as they have in the past two years,
governed by the law of 1905.
The Sunday baseball bill, introduced
by Brolley in the house and passed
there is as good as dead, in all prob
abilities. When the senate comes to
final passage of this bill 1t will prob
ably turn it down by a vote of about
thirty against II.
Nor is there any more hope for the
American Federation of Labor child la
Dor bill. This bill has been killed in
the house and the senate indicated an
unfriendly attitude, Saturday, by re-
fusing to make It the special order
for today Huggs bill was the senate
bill under consideration, and the gen
eral sentiment was that in view Of the
houses action on the Kleckner bill
4 Il would be a waste OF time for the
senate to take further action.

Progress on s1,Ooo,oOO Har-
Dor Ends When Pile
drivers Quit.
OTHER JOBS AFFECTED
Pricipal Fight Is On the Great Lakes
Dock and Dredging Co. Which
Has Many Big Contracts.

A strike which will tie up all opera
4ions on the $1.O0O,O0 harbor contract
at Gary. Ind. on the drainage canal.
the Chicago river, and Lincoln and
Jackson parks was called by the Pile
Drivers union yesterday after a re-
fusal on the part of employing con
tractors TO carry out an agreement
made with the men a year ago prom
ising them an eight hour day.
The strike of the pile drivers will in
volve the dredgemen, dock carpenters,
tugmen. and ship carpenters, who are
allied with the pile drivers in the Mar
rine alliance. 1t will also effect the
engineers engaged in the work.
The striking pile drivers claim that
the employing contractors repudiated
the agreement yesterday. which was
the day set for the eight hour day to
go into effect. They charge that the
contractors are not only breaking their
agreement with the men, but that they
are also violating the law which re-
quires that employees on government,
state, and city work shall not be
obliged to work more than eight hours
a day
Fight Dredging Company.
They state that they are obliged to
work from ten to fourteen hours a day
on public as we'll as private contracts.
The men receive from s2.75 to s4.25
day, according to the kind of work they
do. All the pile drivers. numbering
600. have gone out
The principal fight is against the
Great Lakes Dock and Dredge com
pany, which they characterize as the
trust" and which has the Gary har-
Dor contract and large percentage
of the work around Chicago.
The Great Lakes Dock and DreGge
company is now at work on the harbor
at Indiana Harbor and inquiry was
made to see II this would affect the
work there but it was learned that as
the work being done there now is prin-
cipally dredging and as this is a strike
of the Pile Drivers union it will not
affect the work there unless a sym
pathetic strike was called
The strikers say that the other con
tractors would accede to their demands
IL the QTeuSG company was not DcnlnQ
them in the refusal Of the eight hour
day. Some of the smaller companies
have already capftulated, they say.
At Lincoln park. where 275 acres of
land is being made in the lake they
state that the pile drivers, who are
employed directly By the park board
are obliged to work as high as fourteen
hours day, while unorganized labor
which IS employed in the work is given
an eight hour day. They charge that
the discrimination IS the result of in
fluence brought to bear on the park
board by the contractors.
Case Before supreme Court.
The charge that they are illegally
compelled to work more than eigh,
hours a day on public work is now be-
fore the Supreme court OF Illinois on ar
appeal taken by the Great Lakes com
pany from a case brought 10 test the
legality of the measure. There are
214 indictments now standing against
the company on the same charge
