French Peasant Women Hard Worker

French Peasant Women Hard Workers. The French peasant woman, Ere. tonne or otherwise, works hard as any man. It makes one sad to see tho women working in the fields, digging and delving, carrying heavy burdens, driving the cattle, sometimes attend. ing to the machinery employed on the farms. One wonders whether hus. bands and fathers appreciate 1t all especially when you hear some of the ballads, for ballads are supposed to reveal the soul of a people. heard one the other day of which the refrain is as follows:

Tempest took his leave early, went

Tempest was sitting in the smoking

Senator Hepburn made announcement
to this effect when the agricultural

He was speaking of the right of the
government to include the school sec
tions in it's supervision of reservation
areas, and in this connection Mr..
Smoot raised the point that the ma
tional authority was supreme If the
land had not been surveyed. He said
that even when the forestry service
had cut timber on the unsurveyed sec
tions, it had turned over to the state

Mr.. Hepburn charged the foresters
with accepting bounty money from the
states for killing predatory wild ami
mails, Notwithstanding this is one of
their duties.
The Idaho senator went into detail
in describing instances in which set
tiers had been evicted from their
homes within the reserves for no other
reason, he said, than that the forest
ers wanted the use Of their improve
ments. In reply to Mr.. Shively he
said these proceedings were abso-

strikebreakers' Bloody Work.

Philadelphia-Six persons, includ.
ing young girl, were wounded Tues
day night by bullets fired by party
of alleged strikebreakers who rode
wildly up and down Frankfort avenue
in trolley car and shot into the
crowds that lined the sidewalks.
After one of the most uneventful
days since the beginning of the strike,
the stoning of cars was renewed along
Frankfort avenue, the principal thor
oughfare in the mill district in the
northeast. A stone thrown by one of
the crowd injured strikebreaking moS
torman. Infuriated at this, fifteen o
his comrades took out car, all of
the windows of which they broke with
their clubs.
AS the car, loaded with armed strike
breakers, sped down the avenue, bull
let's were rained at the jeering crowd.
After reaching Allegheny avenue
the car was switched to the north
bound track by its crew and the dash
back to the barn began. So swiftly
was it driven that before the crowd
realized that it was coming back, 1t
had sped past them and into the barn
again.
The labor leaders, after receiving
reports from the secretaries of many
local unions, reiterated their claim of
125,000 on strike.
The shooting of inoffensive bystand-
ers worked the crowd to high pitch
Of excitement and as other cars came
down the street the mob proceeded to
wreck them in several instances, leav-
ing only the trucks on the rails. About
a dozen arrests were made.

CHAPTER ~.

When at three o'clock the following
afternoon Miss Carew arrived at Cra-
ven she was met by Mrs. Henly, who,
bustling in before her, said:
You're to be so good as to wait
miss, in the mornin'-room. I've fire
laid there and l am to see you have
books and papers and whatever you
will like. Mr.. Tempest telegraphed"
With her last words she threw open
the doors of a room whose atmos-
phere greeted with it's brightness
the color and light of it seemed to ex-
tend hands
With native habit of assigning ranks
and places to Mr.. Tempest's familiars,
Mrs. Henly had estimated this sudden
guest. by her simplicity and her grace,
to be of as high breeding and as
worthy blood as the savage United
States can provide. The housekeeper,
the dearest and sweetest creature one
could find in canoes and black silk
and caps in the responsible position of
head of any bachelor gentleman's
household, watched her masters af-

equals, by reason of being a UNIQUE
specimen of her type. she had not as

wants to her. She never spoke to
them save to give orders or to min
lister to one in trouble.
By them she was seen to be a yery
grande dame indeed-by Tempest to
be quite the most f1awless pearl of
womankind.
Living, as she did, very isolated at
Craven, she was now family flushed
with appreciative anticipation of the
few moments chat with Miss Carew
before the master should appear. Miss
Carew had come from the land of
freedom, but whilst she suggested its
delicious liberty she lost with it no
quality. Mrs. Henly's old eyes re-
garded the figure of the American with
favor. Miss Carew asked: Mr.. Tenn
