 LABOR BY MANUFACTURERS

May 1S.-A bitter attac on Samuel Gompers and other leaders of organized labor. which was con tained in the report of the Committee on Industrial Education. marked the first session of the annual convention of the National Association of Manu- lecturers yesterday afternoon at the Waldorf-Astoria. Anthony Ittner, in reporting for the committee. declared that, although industrial education was making such strides that the com mittee might be dispensed with, it might still be Of service ito keep the movement free from the domination of organized labor. which has it's own special purposes in view and tends to sacrifice the public welfare to the sup posed advantage of a class
 The report spoke of MT. Gompers as "defying the highest courts in the land, 'and that. too. while he is under a jail sentence" MT. Ittner also re- ported that he had replied to an in vitation to join the National Society for the Promotion of Industrial Educa- tion. in which certain labor leaders are included, by saying that ito in vite leaders affiliated with the Ameri- can Federation of Labor to become members of the society would be tantamount to inviting the devil and his inps to participate in a movement for the promotion of the Christian re- ligion as taught by the Iowly Nazarene while on earth.'

How to Feed Dogs.

In an article in the Animals Friend c. Leighton discusses the home treat ment of dogs, the various forms of dis temper and their special treatment. To improper food as well as excess in eat ing he attributes the chief cause of this malady. "A little bread and milk or a plain biscuit should alone constitute his diet and no alarm need be felt if the dog refuses to eat. His appetite will return with his health" He adds that bones are distinctly harmful and frequently fatal, since they loosen the teeth, give them a taste for meat, which puts them off their proper food, and if a splinter is swallowed it ire quently becomes impaled in the lungs or intestines Or causes stoppage. when their doom is sealed and the poor brutes die.".
