part of Pittsburg's celebration last
Fourth of July is the largest in the
world" says the January Popular Me-
chanics.
Its 1S0-ft. length by 9O-ft. breadth
was so large, in fact, that flying it be-
came q menace to pedestrians. 1t wrap
ped itself round u lightning rod on the
courthouse roof, gave slight tug, and
when it resumed its lazy but powerful
floating with the breeze, dropped the
lightning rod AMI huge capstone
down into the street Then it began
such bombardment of the street with
tile torn loose from around the capstone
that its suppression was immediately
demanded" The magazine contains a

"Twas ever thusw sighed Jenkins. But there is yet hope. Our Joseph hath received a cali to uplift the down. rod"
 "How did he get it? What is his .ecord?" went on Brooks, ignoring the Interruption. "Why. he started out as a sealer or a south Pacific trader, which in those days was the same as being a pirate. and you know and l know that his name was a terror to sailormen from San Francisco to Aus tralia. He made his first money by bullying and ill treating other men and killing them, too, on occasion. It's matter of common knowledge. And he's been buccaneer ever since, Didn't he bunko and sandbag my fa- ther-in-law out of control of this com- pany? And what has he done since then but act the brutal tyrant oyer everybody connected with it. beating us down to the lowest wage a man can exist on that he may add to bis dirty heap, running this office with fist, boot and rope end as though it were his lawless ship and we were his groveling Lascar crew. I hope the longshoremen do strike, They would be doing humanity a service if they'd fill him full of bullets"
 There's a lot of truth in what Brooks says" assented youthful clerk in low tones, looking around eau tiously as he did so.
 "Well, after all, I don't see that you're got such fierce kick coming" observed Jenkins to the disgruntled orator.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1909-09-30

"You don't. eh? sneered Brooks. "You think S20 week is big pay for an accountant and collector who's handled half the money of the line for five years, eh?"
 "No; I mean that you are at least solid with the boss and sure of your job, which Is more than anybody else here is, and that you stand to become an officer high up in the company one of these days. Williams is a friend of your family. isn't he? You yourself have boasted often that he visits you and your wife"
 That's just it. The swine takes ad- vantage of his relations with my wife's people to keep me down and rub it in. Other people get their sal ary raised. but don't. Do you call that square deal?'
 'Tt hardly seems so, but perhaps there's a reason. He may have some object that will appear in due course, and you'll go up several numbers at ore sweep. In the meantime," contin- ued Jenkins, lowering his voice, "I wouldn't let on like you have this aft ernoon if I were you, Joe. It can't do any good and might do you deal of harm. You don't know who, might hear you, and the boss somehow knows everything that goes on in the office."
 q don't care," affirmed Brooks sul- kily. "Pd just as lief tell him to his face what I think of him. and, by gum, will one of these days, darn himp' :. i,
 "All right" laughed Jenkins. T hope I'll be around at the time eso that 1 can perform for you the last sad rite of gathering up your scattered fe- mains. An, here's Jimmy smtthr'

 derstand. And I don't want you to come here thinking you can bulldoze me, because you'll find mighty quick you're mistaken. If any man thinks he can do that I want to see him."
 The words, uttered in a wrathful below, came through the closed door of the presidents room and were heard by every employee and visitor in the main office of the Latin-Ameri- can Steamship company, which occu- pied an entire floor of big building in Bowling Green, New York city.
 Some of the employees smiled and passed the remark that the boss had lem bad" that day, but the smiles were of the sickly, apprehensive order, for the fact that he was in execrable humor was perfectly well known to each and all, having been impressed upon them very forcibly at intervals from the minute the great man had made his appearance with his .unyary- ing punctuality as the clock struck 9 a. m. Others scowled and kept their reflections to themselves.
 The voices of the other parties to the conversation were not audible to the listeners, but that of the president, with it's all penetrating roar, burst forth again:
 "I don't give a tin whistle what you or your unions do. understand Let lem strike, strike and be d-d, But you tell lem this from me-that any man who's fool enough to throw up his job does so for good and all. He'll never work again for the Latin-Ameri- can Steamship company in this or any other port. I'll take care of that. I'll show lem who and what am if they don't know"
 The door opened, and two white faced, intimidated men emerged, cap in hand. They were rough looking men, evidently laborers inured to the hardest kind of work. They shuffled quickly past the neatly dressed clerks and did not breathe freely until they found themselves in the cross streams of hurrying passersby on the street There, as they mopped their brows and looked around for saloon, some thing of the arrogant insolence with which they had demanded audience of the head of the company and which had been speedily cowed out of them by that formidable and choleric per sonage returned to them.
 Meanwhile at the open door of the room in which they had been through the ordeal of their interview Captain Amos Williams, president and general manager of the line, glared after his departing visitors and round the of fee. There was dead silence, and ev- cry employee. from the highest to the office boys, impudent and irrepressible there, as everywhere else save when Captain Williams was nigh, became deeply engrossed in his work.
 Gall up MT. Smith and tell him want to see him at once," he growled to no one in particular. Then he re- entered his room and slammed the door. - I

 "Mr. Brooks, the captain wants you" he announced.
 MT. Brooks did not reply, but he got down leisurely and with bad grace from his stool and moved with equal deliberation to the presidents room.
 Brooks. has Fernandez & Co.,, that Pernambuco firm, been heard from yetT' demanded his employer.
 "Check came today" was the la conic reply.
 Full amountW
 "Yes, four thousand eight hundred and seventy-dve."
 "All right. That's all"
 Brooks went out, closing the door behind him, and returned to his desk. He was in bad temper himself and made no effort to conceal it. for sul. len scowl marred his handsome and usually genial face. Not only was distinguished looking young fellow, whose clothes sat well and becomingly upon him, albeit they were somewhat shiny from wear and from ironing by inexpert hands at home. And if his collars and cuffs also were just trife the worse for wear at least they were immediately clean.
 "Cheer up" admonished one of his fellow clerks, noticing his i'll humor. Brooks moods were never taken se- riously, for with him fits of despond- ency alternated with contagious cor diality and an optimism that knew no limit. Of late, however, his spells Of gieominess had become wearisomely frequent, and usually they were &C., companied by a nervous irritability.
 "Cheer up?" he answered, with some heat. q don't see any reason for cheering up, and don't feel like cheering up. Did you hear how the brute received those delegates of the Longshoremen's, union because they asked him to add a little to their star vation pay to help them keep skin and bone together? Why shouldn't he raise them? Why shouldn't be raise all of US? He's reeking with money, doesn't know what to do with it, yet what does he do but grind us down-grind and grind and grind-grind us as grain of wheat is ground to powder between the millstones-grind us with his heel. squeezing from us the very sap of brain and life that he may add to his pile"
 The clerks near him had listened to this outbreak with amused surprise.
 Well" said the man who had ad- dressed him before, q haven't noticed you sweating blood to any extent un- der the grinding process"
 Jenkins, you're a-a camel" retort- ed Brooks. For a wisp of hay you'd let yourself be loaded till the last straw broke your back, and then you'd lick the hand that crushed you"
 Sure" said Jenkins enthusiastically. "Anybody can load me up that wants to-"
 And I'll back his liquid capacity to equal that of any camel" chimed in another clerk, while every one within earshot grinned.
 "Oh, you can laugh," grumbled Brooks. ''but 1t doesn't alter the truth of what say. It's men like him that have made our society today what it is, soulless, heartless, oppressive civilization in which Croesuses walk toughshod over the men who are down and thrust them deeper into the Slough with one foot as they climb higher and higher to the power that the possession of inconceivable wealth carries with tt.n
