HUMOR OF THE HOUR
A Rapid Mover.


There Is one plantation in Georgia
which is maintained on something Of
the before the war" style, and moth
ing delights its owner more than the
arrival Of guest. particularly if the
guest happen to be from the north
in order that he may show what genG-
inc southern hospitality is Not long
ago Il Boston capitalist, looking over
the country with an idea Of invest,
ment, happened along with letter of
Introduction.
The owner of the place was more
than pleased and insisted upon his
visitor staying for several days, and
when the stranger expressed a wish
to ride over the plantation it was ar.
ranged that they should do so the next
morning.
The day was warm. but they pres
emily came to Il bubbling spring and
here they found a negro with Il browl
jug and a bunch of mint. A cool julep
was soon manufactured and they rode
on. Shortly, at shady spot, they
found Il negro, equipped with jug.
cold water and mint. After short
rest they again rode. and at another
spring a negro waited with jug, mint
and sugar. The southe"ner noted with
pleasure the expression Of surprise
and satisfaction upon his visitors face
pleasure which gave place to gen.
tie sadness when the Bostonian turned
to him with the remark:
Say, think 1t is really remarkable

keep ahead of usv'-Harper's Weekly.

operating in cOntravention of
law. This is the most radical
suggestion that has been made
yet. 1t seems to put into the
hands of the president directly or
through the department of Com
merce and Labor the power of
stopping any corporation from
doing business on the ex parte
testimony of departmental ag-
ents. The reason advanced for
such radical action is that the
delays, postponements, injunc-
tions and all sorts of legal devic-
es that the big trusts use to
block the operation of the laws
make those laws almost useless.
1t offers a short cut to punish
ment and would mean making
the corporations fight the case
in the courts after the punish
ment had been inflicted instead
of before. 1t would be practic-
ally the receivership plan with
out the right of appeal to injunc-
tions beforehand. For it would,
of course, be impossible to stop
many of the big corporations
from doing business altogether
without inflicting a hardship on
the general public. 1t must be
admitted that conditions are
pretty bad to even allow such a
suggestion to be considered at
all. But it is certainly a sugges-
ton fraught with danger. In
the hands of an absolutely just
and honest executive, it is a pow
er that could be we'll exercised.
But it would be putting an aW-
full power into the hands of a
man who was the least under
suspicion. The only thing that
makes the matter worthy of Sc
rious discussion is the fact that
it has come to the public through
the same channel that a good
many feelers have been put out
from the White House. If the
object is to arouse discussion and
get the public sentiment before
Congress meets, it has certainly
accomplished it's purpose, for the
question is already being dis
cussed at length. And the worst
of it is, from the corporations
point of view, that it is a thing
that will be seriously considered.

LOSES A S125 EARRING
BY BLAST Of DYNAMITE

NEW YORK, Oct. 1s.-Mrs Joseph H.

part of her right ear when Holbrook &
DAILY, contractors set off a heavy blast
of dynamite at Barlow station. on the
New York. New Haven & Hartford rail-
road for which company the contractors
are at work.
Mrs Brown had been visiting friends
at City Island and was on her way to
her home, 726 East Two Hundred and
Twentieth street. She was standing on
the station platform at Barlow waiting
for train when the blast was fired. The
heavy charge of dynamite hurled stones
in every direction. One of them grazed
Mrs Browns face, took off the skin and
rart of the lobe of her ear.
She was badly frightened and some
what stunned, but refused to remain at
the station, preferring to take the train
for home. When she arrived at her home
she discovered that the stone which took
the skin off the side of her face had
taken with it one of her diamond ear
rings
The loss of the earring and part of the
ear was reported to the Thirty-ei
sub-precinct police station on City Island,
but no trace Of the jewelry has been

Report That Daisy and Other Well

Untrue - Employees Have
Support of Public
By Associated Press.

GOLDFIELD, New Oct 18.-Several
of the smaller properties in the Gold
field district were closed down today as a
result of the notice given by the miners
union that none of its members would
hereafter work for any mine or lease
now shipping ore, unless the company
operating the same established semi
monthly pay days.
Nearly all the companies have com
piled with the requirement of the union,
or were paying their men twice a month
before the notice was issued. Conse-
quently when the rule was put in force
at II o'clock last night only two or three
shut downs resulted. 1t was reported
around town today that the Daisy and
other well known properties were affected.
but such is not the case, as they are
working and paying twice a month
1t is generally admitted that the miners
were justified in insisting on a semi
monthly pay day, and there is no possi-
bility of any trouble resulting from the
enforcement Of the new rule.
