THE UNION LABEL
WOman'S Trade League De-
CideS Upon Of Amusement
Proper for Working Girls

CHICAGO June 17.-The Woman's
Trade Union League after several
months consideration has decided that
the following forms of play and amuse-
ment shall be considered as bearing the
union label: Dancing, including Euro
pean folk dancing; swimming. hockey,
baseball. handball, choral singing, opera
and high class concert music, tennis,
croquet. rowing, sailing, rural walking

The following have been placed on
the unfair list: Prize fighting. saloon
dances, dances at amusement parks,
staying out late nights at "aimless rec
reation."
How to play" as distinguished from
how to work." and how TO obtain rec
reation of the greatest benefit to the
spiritual, moral and physical health of
women were announced as important
features of activity of the Women's
Trade Union League.
The subject was first brought to the
attention of the league in a symposium
on Days Hygiene" discussed by DR.
Caroline Hedger DIR. Josephine Young
and DR.. Stephens Walker, staff physi-
clans of the organization.
The league decided to hold a confer
ence in the near future and endeavor
to formulate plan for directing the
amusements, sports and recreation for

Roosevelt, were called the Shorter and

When Roosevelt arrived at Renk on
March II. this being practically his
emerging from the wilderness. there
was a wild rush upon him OF corre-
spondents who had engaged special
boats for the up-Nile trip. But all
they learned in a political way was
what the United Press correspondents
had already told the world-that the
Colonel would not discuss American
politics. These correspondents were
close friends Of Roosevelt. and they
pumped him right and left. before
breakfast and at bedtime. but Roose-
Welt was adamant and the world even
yet has only surmises as TO how the
former President views political con-
dltlons in this country.
The meeting between Roosevelt and
clifford Plnchot, whom President Taft
deposed as Chief Forester. at Porto
Maurizio on April TO- it was thought,
would surely result in at least small
break in Roosevelt's wall Of reserve,
but again the correspondents were
fooled. Roosevelt returns 20 America
without having given public express
sion 70 a single sentiment that could
reflect his views on Taft insurgency,
the tariff. the Ballinger affair or any
other of the subjects in which It is pre-
sumed he is deeply interested.
While in Europe, Colonel Roosevelt
delivered. four set addresses and a
large number OF more or less inn

affairs were his address az l<hartoum'

Of the league vii be held in July.
Il am glad 10 see the league has
taken up hockey" said DR.. Hedger.
Dancing also is a fine exercise, and
would urge it as a means Of preserv-
ing physical health. I want TO warn
young working girls, however, against
the Saturday night saloon dance and
the dance hall. They are dangerous.
The dance hall is a recruiting ground
for white slaves
I'VE must have amusement and rec
reation. We were not intended to stand
with our noses to the grindstone all
the time. We have TO have some fun
in life, otherwise life doesn't amount
to much. Prize fighting is not desir-
able.
Belonging to labor unions and taxi
ing part in their deliberations I should
say is a spiritual form Of recreation.

ATTEMPTED JAIL DELIVERY.

An attempted jail delivery was
frustrated last Sunday, by the prompt
action of the officials of that institu.
ton. Suspicion was aroused by the
pleading of two prisoners from Gal
lipolis, by name of Bowen and Beck
to be allowed the privilege of the
corridors. Investigation showed
that one bar of the window had been
sawed through and several bars SO
loosened that good strong blow
would have pushed them from place.
The work was evidentallv done by
parties from the outside.

NAME OF WILEY
GREW ON APPLE REMARKABLE Curl
OlTY FROM PUTNAM COUNTY.

John W. Taylor, of West Hunt
ington. received this morning as a
present from his brother in Putnam
county, two apples, one of which
was marked, by the hand of nature,
the word Rankin" These apples
are regarded by those who have seen
them on exhibition in the show win
dow of the Florentine Drug Store. as
a sure omen for the election of Hon.
Rankin Wiley. democratic nominee
for Congress in the Fifth district,
The omen is augmented, it is
claimed by the fact that they were
grown in Putnam county.
Some comment has been aroused
concerning the queer occurrence,
since one of the apples was marked
with Hon. Rankin Wileys surname
and the other with his given name.
This is explained bv Mr.. Taylor as
only serving to help his conviction
concerning the election of demo-
cratic congressman from the Fifth
district. The one on which the
word Wiley" was blazoned, is an
older one than its mate, and grew
when the result was yet in doubt.
When the apple bearing the word
Rankin appeared on the fatefnl
tree, the matter was regarded as
doubly sure.
Apples" said Mr.. Taylor this
morning, have been, since the be-
ginning of the world, connected with
great events and am disposed to

STEAMBOAT SALE
ONLY ONE BID FOR P. &C. LINE SALE
POSTPONED AGAIN.

For the third time the sale of the
Pittsburg and Cincinnati Packet
Line was postponed last week. The
sale, which took place, attracted one
bidder, ]. K. Lyons, of Higgins
port, Ohio, and he bid SEQ, 900 for
the wharfboat at pittsbarg, one-half
interest in the wharf-boat at Cmcin-
natl and the packet boats Virginia
and Queen City. No higher bid be-
ing given the sale was adjourned un-
til November To-. Mr.. Lyons, it is
stated, is desirous of purchasing the
line for the purpose of operating it.
River men who have capital seem
to be afraid to invest in the steamers
Virginia and Queen City. 1t is ad-
mitted that steamboat stock is down
to the minimum on the upper Ohio
due principally to the fact that the
boats are laid up so much of the time
on account of low water. The Vir-
ginia and Queen City are the finest
sternwheel packets on the western
waters and cost about SIS, 200 each.
They have decreased considerably in
value. 1t now seems doubtful about
their being sold and in case they are
not Receiver Henderson will likely
operate one or more of these boats in
the Pittsburg trade again this win
ter, although it is said they are too
large and expensive to be run in the
trade proftably.
