BETTER THAN A STRIKE.

Better and more effectual than a
strike is the move the Federation OF
Labor is making against the Steel
Trust. BY carefully prepared data,
alleging violations of the Sherman
antitrust law and the most hideous
disregard of the rights OF man and
human life, the federation has start
ed the department Of commerce and
labor on the track Of the big con-
Germs, and the department has fur
nished the government a report, that
indicates a situation in the big steel
mill towns. which threatens the very
foundations OF our social order: ex-
cessive hours of work at inadequate
wages; employment Of children IN
unhealthful work at starvation pay;
employment of women In work un-
suited for them; housing Of en-
ployes In unsanitary property be-
longing to the companies; stock
aiding Of men, and practical i'm
prisonment of injured men In COM
pany hospitals, where they can not
secure legal redress for wrongs OF
personal injuries-these are some
Of the conditions set forth in the
report.
Those, who believe the centraliza.
ton Of authority makes for pater.
nalism In government, and the or.
ganization of workers makes for so
cialism, have but to look at the
effectiveness with which the federal
executive departments work to tbs
end Of securing justice. and the
initiative manifested by the fedora
ton In looking after its own inter
ests in this case, to be satisfied tina
neither is deadening in its influence
on the initiative and individuality.

Some Stories Around the Town.

Many Paducahans last evening
saw Halley's comet. which appeared
in the western sky Immediately after
sun set, several degrees above the
horizon and slightly TO the north of
where the sun set. No tail was Wis
ible, but the comet was quite brill
liant and made an irregular blur
several times the magnitude OF the
largest fixed star. II may be the
brightness OF the moon obscured the
tail. but scientists at the Yerkes
observatory report that thew found
no tail last night, which Indicates
that the earth has passed the comet.
Whether We went through the tail
is still a question over which they
are in doubt. The Lick observatory
reports a brilliant tail. The comet
will continue to climb higher and
higher into the evening slH from
now on. and when the moon wanes
1t will present a magnificent spec

chum of former President Roosevelt and
late German Ambassador at Washing
ton. This ve-at-frst-sight romance,
which had its beginning on transat-
lantc steamer, was threatened with
shoals because the bride did not have
in her own right the $4,000 dowry that
Germany thinks every bride of AN officer
and diplomat should bring to her
husband, but a generous uncle came
forward to play the good fairy and the
couple spent their honeymoon with the
Roosevelts at the White House. The
Kaiser has always showered courtesies
upon Baroness Sternburg, and that he
can be most generous to the American
wives of Teuton statesmen has likewise
been attested by the nonors he has be-
slowed upon Baroness Won Ketteler, the
widow of the late German Minister to
China, who was murdered during the
Boxer revolt.
The earliest marriage of an American
girl and n foreign diplomat which at
tracted widespread attention occurred
when Andrew Jackson was President.
The bride was Miss Mary Lewis, daugh-
ter of Major Lewis, the intimate friend
and companion in arms of General Jack
son. Consequently the President insist
ed that the wedding take place Mt the
White House and he himself gave the
bride away. The lucky man in this
pioneer international alliance was M.
Alphonse Joseph Pageot, then secretary
of legation but later French minister to
the United States. Since that time II
number of diplomatic servitors of our
sister republic have had the aid of Amer
lean helpmates. Two Illustrations In
point are to be found in the present per-
sonnet of the French embassy Mt Wash
ington. Madam Jusserand, wife of the
ambassador, is an American woman, al

to go in search of the South Pole, now
that an American has discovered the

But the floats are the more formal ex-
preston of the carnival feeling Its best
example is perhaps to be found in the
laughter in the crowds, in the happy and
excited faces of the thousands of chill
dren, who for once are permitted to
make all the noise they want and to
play all the practical jokes they can
scheme out ON elderly gentlemen with
high silk hats and imposing looking whis-
kers.
The cnrnivals known to all the world
are the big expensive affairs already de-
scribed 1t should not be forgotten that
every city and town in Southern Europe
has its own carnival. These are not so
expensive, but they are perhaps more
natural and less artificial. In small
towns, like Ququerona In Southern France
and Vingtmighlia in Italy the floats are
not expensive, and no crowds of sight
seers attend. The king and queen of the
carnival are chosen from the young peo-
pie, and the whole season Is one of
neighborly rejoicing and good will.
The carnival Is typical of the Latin
races and a warm climate. Despite nu-
merous efforts it has never been success

the latest Old World lover to meet his
of Baron Won Stumm and Miss Constance
Hoyt, daughter Of Henry NJ. Hoyt, coun-
selor for the Department of State, con-
stitutes the most notable international
event of this kind during the present
season-scarcely less because of the prom
inence of the contracting parties than by
reason of the influential position of the
brides father, who is the 'right-hand
man" of Secretary Knox In the reorgan-
ICED State Department. In the culmina-
ton of his love story however, the hand
some young Teuton diplomat was but fol-
lowing a tradition of his family for both
his father and his grandfather chose
American brides. Baron Won Stumm's
mother was the former Miss Pauline Won
Hoffman, o. belle and beauty of New
York city. whereas his grandmother was.
prior TO her marriage, Miss Grimes, of
Staten Island. ~
OF all the foreign nations whose diplo-
mats have shown a penchant for marry
ing Miss Columbia's daughters, Germany
is markedly in the lead This Is rather
odd too, for no government has shown
more strenuous objection to such al
liances than that at Berlin. German
sovereigns and prime ministers have been
wont to take the ground that states
man serving the Fatherland first in one
world capital and then another should
not have his social and other burdens
shared by wife Of any other national
ity than his own. large section of the
German press has always taken the
same view most emphatically. 1t Is de-
clared that 1t Is not so much that there
is fear for the influence Of foreign
wife upon German diplomat in his
official activities as that complications
might ensue in social matters. Then,
too, it has rather iurt the patriotic
vanity of the Germans that so many OF
their officials have preferred to go over
seas for helpmates.
This spirit of protest has even put In
an appearance In connection with the
latest romance. that of Baron Won
Stumm and Miss Hoyt, although In this
instance it has manifested itself prin-
cipally in the comparatively mild criti-
