the w-punchers brought about IA
surprising degree of activity on all

most instantly the tent was deserted

a white flag futtered.
This meant that dinner was ready
When the white flag shows. the cir
Gus employees may eat. After the
white flag has been floating about
one hour and half, Ii Is replaced BY
a red banner. This means that those
who have been tardy need not bother
to walk to the mess tent, To do so
will be a waste of effort for they will
get no FOOD. 1t is declared however.
that few miss their meals. On the
contrary, the white flag usually finds
everybody waiting and ready.
The feeding of the circus folk is
most interesting, and comprises a mag
nitude OF labor and preparation that
exceeds that of many hotels The
dining tent Is large enough to ac-
commodate nearly 400 people. There
are twenty eight tables. each with a
seating capacity of fourteen. Each
table has an individual waiter and an
individual box in which the silver
ware. china and linen Is kept when
not in use. The performers and the
laborers each have their own dining
section. Mr.. John Robinson. the own
er of the show, and his family also
eat in the tent at a table reserved
especially for their own use. All.
however, receive exactly the same

The dining tent Is in the charge of

sion counts for anything, those who
came from the mess tent following

tirely satisfied with the culinary treat
ment they had received.
There IL a delightful spirit of Boz
hemian good fellowship about these
circus men, which Is particularly no.
ticeable when they are seen at their
leisure. Indeed, 1t might be said that
in order to get the true spirit of the
show, one should not only attend the

FOR HIS RULING

Leaders All Uniforms Inspected
Jeers for Club Men.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-The deci-
sion Of Justice Gof, of the Supreme
Court that labor unions are guilty of
conspiracy when they order strike
to enforce the "closed shop" was bit
terry resented by organized labor in
its street demonstration to-day. The
Labor DAY parade was one of the larg-
est ever held in this city. and at the
head of nearly every organization was
banner denouncing GoH, Some Of
the structures closely approached con-
tempt. but no attempt was made to
interfere with them. They were the
product of the Womens Trades I'm
ion League.
The following inscription was most
prominently displayed in the parade.
Roosevelt says the Supreme Court
is made up of fossils. What would he
say about Goff?"
Cheer Their Officers
There were several unique incidents
in connection with the parade. In
line were members of the eloak max
ers' unions who have just won their
nine weeks strike after suffering
great priYations. women and men
members marching side by side and
stopping the parade occasionally to
cheer for their officers.
Before the parade started a com
mittee named by the Central Fedora =
tion Union inspected the unions All
were compelled to display the union
label on their uniforms and badges
and a number of paraders were forced
70 discard those that did not show
publicly that they were the product
of union labor.
The parade marched down Fifth
avenue. and there was good deal of
jeering frrrn the cloak makers as they
passed the aristocratic clubs from
which the complaints we're made
against them last week, causing
wholesale arrests.
