DEMONSTRATION
OF UNEMPLOYED
New York Police AntiCipat-
ing Trouble.

NEW YORK, March 6.-(SpeciaD =
New York police officials are prepar-
ing for trouble such as was recently
experienced in Philadelphia, when
the army of the unemployed" in the
metropolis attempt to hold a great
demonstration in City Hall Park to-
morrow afternoon. It is expected
that a small army of police, both
mounted and foot, will be on hand in
case the demonstration is carried out
on a large scale and will use harsh
measures to put down any move tow
ard rioting. .lEw
The Central Federated Union, rep
resenting union labor in New York,
has refused to give it's sanction to
the demonstration Conservative la
Dor leaders declare that the move
ment is a political scheme to further
the interests of the Socialists and
their chosen leader, William D. Hay
wood. 1t is rumored that Haywood
will address the meeting of the un-
employed tomorrow.
In their appeal to the unemployed
to take part in tomorrow's demon
stration, the promoters of the move

Appeal of Leaders

"The conference recognizes that
measures of immediate relief are
imperatively necessary. The confer
ence therefore calls upon all labor
organizations to give it prompt and
energetic support in inaugurating a
great, systematic and aggressive
popular demand upon the Mayor and
Board of Aldermen of the city, upon
the Governor and Legislature of the
State and upon the President and
Congress of the United States, that
these public authorities use the law
making and taxing powers to the fol-
lowing end:
ITO undertake useful public works
upon large scale and thus give
employment to those thrown out of
work in private industry, such work
not to be done by contract, but under
system of direct employment by the
city, State and nation, so that all the
moneys. appropriated shall go to the
workers and none to useless middle
men, and all such work to be done
under union conditions as to hours OF
labor and wages, so that the general
standard Of living may be raised rath-
er than lowered by such public en-
ployment."

COULDN'T FIND THE REMNANTS.
Remarkable Disappearance That Pun
zled the Hired Girl.

A woman who goes In for the higher
art has miniature Venus de Milo
standing on the piano, just to show
the casual caller that she's wise as to
what's what.
This woman has the Venus and she
also has a new hired girl who comes
from furrin shores.
In busting the piano the other morn
ing, while her mistress was out do
ing the marketing, the girl bowled
over the Venus. She picked 1t up.
picked up also chip or two that had
been knocked off the statuette, and
then set II I'm place and sized 1t up
to see II 1t looked all right. When
the mistress arrived home an hour
later she found the girl down on her
knees peering under the piano, look
ing over the floor and looking In vari-
Gus other directions, all Of which sug-
gested that she might be looking for
something
"And what Is the matter?" asked
the mistress of the home In surprise.
ooh, knocked over the statchoo,"
lamented the girl pointing to Venus.
But It doesn't seem to have dam
aged 1t any"
Yes, 1t did" insisted the girl, al
most tearfully. 1T broke off both
arms, maam and | haven't been able
to find the pieces"

On Getting Up Early.

/ often hear fellows say that their
life consists solely Of coming down to
business. and sleep, says writer
What a different tale they would tell
II they were only to get up early and
60 out OF doors before they need think
Of business! Even II they only rose
early once week, that morning would
stand ahead Of the other six. There
is freshening and invigorating power
in the early morning air which only
early risers may enjoy. Ask anybody
who is accustomed to rising early
and going for a ride or walk before
breakfast how much filter they feel
to face their daily toll.

Moral Effects OF Athletics.

Aside from its physical effect, the
moral effect Of athletics, in the case
OF the soldier at least, is Of no small
value, My experience has been that
men are less likely to drink in the
football or baseball season, even
though they may be addicted to the
use Of intoxicants. And thus no spe-
cial effort may have been made along
these lines by those in charge OF the
sports. The class Of men who 90
in for athletics and excel In such
contests are the most desirable sol
diers and the best all around men
Still another advantage Of athletics
is that good athletic teams and the
reputation for post OF having cham
pion teams draw good recruits and
soldiers to enlist there.-Army and
Navy Life.

HAD NO LIKING FOR MUMMiEs.
Servants Of Great Writer Did Not
Share His Hobby.

Pierre Lott, the French novelist,
once obtained new acquisition to his
weird and wonderful collection Of
Egyptian mummies. II was that OF a
young princess, with gilded face, al
most as expressive under Its mask
as 1t must have been in life. This
mummy, one OF the best In his col
lection, accentuated In his study the
smell that creeps from winding
sheet when a mummy is half un.
rolled" Lofts grievance was that
his servants would not move or touch
his mummies under any circum.
stances.
"Only think" he said mot one OF
my servants would touch this beauti-
full young woman. They are so super
stitious about the dead had to car.
ry her upstairs myself. And, would
you believe me, as ] reached the
landing n suddenly flashed through
my mind that was carrying corpse.
| seemed to feel the chill OF the dead
breast penetrate my own"
Noticeable among the other en-
balmed bodies OF dead and gone
Egyptians in Lofts study was that
OF a little three.year-old girl. who
stared down with sightless eyes on
her owner as he sat writing his ro-
mances and plays in the still watches
Of the night.
