In a recent case at Winnipeg, an Attempt to collect from members of a labor union the damages awarded in a suit against the union. failed, and the plaintfn then procured the appoint
 mert of receiver for the union and endeavored to secure the awarded damages by collecting the back dues and assessments of the members. The court, however, decided against this procedure,s holding that the members had not, in the unions constitution, cQntracted to pay dues, that failure to pa$ them could be punished by sus- pension or expulsion only, and that as the union itself could not at law col lsct dues, the receiver could not. Ac- cording to this decision, union dues eSn only be collected by the moral suasion or coercion of threats to sus- pend or expel, unless the unions con- stitution be, in terms, contract be- tween the organization and its mem bers.

THE LONGEST STAIRCASE.

The longest staircase in the world is
held to be that on Mount Omi on the
border between western China and
Tibet At the summit of Mount Omi
stands Buddhist temple, most sacred
and holy Mecca of certain pilgrims of
the faith. In order to facilitate the
ascent of the slippery slopes of this
mountain some twenty thousand steps
have been cut in a single flight. There
is a legend TO the effect that many
years ago pilgrims were forced
to ascend the mount by no artificial
means, but that eventually the monks
conceived the idea of requiring each
pilgrim to cut a single step.

LIFE IN MEXICO.
Whore They Bar the Windows and
 Leave the Doors Open.

The City of Mexico swarms with life. siesta when you arrive and the streets are deserted of moving things. though every darkened doorway possesses it's own colony of slumberers who have sast themselves down where they stood to sleep away the heat laden hours when no man works Even the sery dogs stink Into the shadow of the dazzling walls and loIl pltifully. The tinkle of mule bells is hushed. The cry of the muleteer sounds no longer. To walk through these streets with i'm perious foot. after the British fashion, seems saerilege. One might be walk ing through a city of the dead.
 But the hot hours pass, the city awakens. the mules strain and plunge at the collar. the degs prowl about be- tween the legs of those who pass. the shops are opened. the scent of garlic saturated cookery rises strongly, man. tilla shrouded faces peep from ancient easemates protected by massive iron bars. and the city of sleep becomes city of leisurely wakefulness You no- tee these barred casemates particular iy. They are feature of Mexico. House eholders bar the windows and leave the doors unfastened, and here you have an epitome of Mexican char acter: Do nothing openly, everything on the sly. even to wooing your lady love.
 You might spend long lifetime in the City of Mexico and still leave much unseen, there are so many fea- lures to note-the actual city life. the life beyond those jealously guarded windows, the life lived in the flower scented patios where cooling fountains play with musical softness. Here comes a vaquero riding nonchalantly up the street. typical product of Mexico. a cattle hand from one of the outlying ranches. perfect fury un- chained when the liquor of the coun- try is in him, gentle, dreamy child when the liquor has evaporated. and yet between the two events he might have committed a dozen murders with out the slightest compunction, His swarthy face Is alight with merry laughter. His earrings sparkle in the declining sun. The gay trappings fof his magnificent horse fling back dag xling specks of color. In his cha parajos (those fringed overalls which protect the speckless white riding brooches from the dust of the way. his bell buttoned jacket. his sombrero. with the haft of machete protruding from his crimson sash. he might be a hero of old legend instead of a com monplace cowboy.-Frank H. Shaw in Chambers' Journal.

yep~sueIs Not Bankrupt:

Castro, the ex-President of Nenezue- la, is now so utterly discredited that no attention is paid to his frothy declama- tions in regard to himself or the Repub- lie which he basely misused for his sell fish purposes. In a recent statement made by him he said that Venezuela would be bankrupt in six months. This is made to look silly in the follow ing paragraph from President Gomez's recent message to the Venezuela Con- gress. IL shows that notwithstanding the suppression, by the new govern ment of numberless oppressive taxes, the deficit in the Bank of Venezuela, left by Castro, has been transformed into a respectable credit. The Presi- dent says:
 "On November 24th last, the day on which 1 assumed the Presidency, the government owed 10 the Bank of Ven ezuela 54o, ,s62.l bolivar, sl49, 9,l52. Alter having met every administrative and other expenses, the go> ernment now has balance in it's favor, in the Bank o Venezuela, of ,ssl, ,a9o.6 .6S bol. iears, tSas, ,oool and in the national Treasury ilt, ,SiI.o boliyars, sl2 ,5o7- -
 This statement was received by the people with joy, and show unmistakly how Castro has misused his power for his selfish ends. If he ever attempts to rsturn to Venezuela, he will get short shrifti and jerky ending. The Republic is al peace with all fore,gn nations, which Il was not while Gas tro abused his authority to mistreat enterprising strangers. And the peo- pie are enjoying every right to which they are entitled as citizens and as men.
