SERVANTS BY THE HOUR.
An Experiment in Putting Household Labor on a Shop or Fac
 tory Basis.

Describing the efforts being made to solve the servant problem by put ting household labor on the same ba- sis as any other industry, Miss Eliza beth Westwood. in the July Metropoli- tan Magazine, tells of the work of the Household Aid Company, of Boston, as follows:
 This was a two years experiment in developing a new branch of domes- tic craftsman, the part time or SUD- plementary worker who goes into the home only for portion of the. day and is paid by the hour. The com pany took only workers of a super for grade, so the preparation, always an obnoxious feature to the wage-ear- ner, was not as long as the regular training school required. The appii- cants must be American born, with grammar school education or its equivalent, and those having had a year or two of high school were pre- ferred. They must in addition be goodlooking and have a certificate of health and character.
 The first two weeks they were on probation, and those who were ac- cepted were given subsequently, a six or eight weeks training, depending on the rapidity with which they learned In some cases of unusual proficiency the training was even shorter. While in training the aids received free board and lodging. Af- Ser that they went out at the rate of from fifteen cents to a dollar an hour. and lived at the training school paying four dollars a week board. The company guaranteed them ten dol lars week, and took a percentage of all sums earned over this amount As the undertaking became known in Boston there was a great demand for the aids, and the scheme was so well received by wage-earners that nT1i ar7fc could be accommodated.
 "Often one worker was qualified for several branches. At afternoon tea and dinner time there was greater demand for waitresses than during the rest of the day, conse-

Vast Income of the House of the
 RothSchildS.

Although no man can state the amount of the combined fortunes of the Rothschilds, it is estimated that they are at least two billions of dol lars. This is four times the prob able wealth of the Rockefeller clan. and more than six times greater than the united Astor possessions which form our largest hereditary fortune Yet the founder of the Astor estate was rich man before the first Roths- child was permitted to do business. At four per cent, the yearly income from the present Rothschild fortune would be eighty million dollars, or more than the whole capital amassed by the original derbilt.-Munsey's Magazine.

PENSIONS FOR
 WIDOWS OF VETERANS.
Especial from United Pres

tSpectdl rom united Press.
 Hartford. June S0.-If the Senate ooncurs with the State House of Rep- resentatfves in passing a bill giving every Connecticut Civil war veteran. his widow or his widowed motherha a yearly pension of $50, the state wiH be called up to pay nearly s200, ,00b annually at the lowest estimate yes- terday. The state statutes now pra- vide an exemption from taxes on $Si i- 900 worth of property owned by ank pensioned veteran. on $2,000 worth of property held by veteran or veterans widow or mother and s1,- 900 worth of property owned by pen stoned widows, fathers or mothers This exemption averages about S15 d year to those veterans who own prop erty. The charge was made in de- bate, Wednesday, that if the bill be- came a law veterans from other states would move into Connecticut in great numbers. There are about $500 vet erans in the state at present.

 They distrust you, they despise you, they fear to take you into their con- fidence and if the moment ever ar rives when you or yours are guilty Of an error or misdeed you will learn how many enemies you really possess and you will appreciate for the first time what it means to stand convicted without a hearing.

Marketing and waiting went up to forty cents; furniture polishing and cooking brought fifty cents Among the other occupations were keeping accounts, silver cleaning, and caring for lamps. Som etimes the aids were reserved for emergency calls. Some times they had regular set of clients to whom they went daily for a spe- cified time'

EDITORIAL @M(

Gradually the hue and cry against
Russias treatment of American citi
zens is rising higher and higher, and
within short while will sweep
through the entire land showing the
spirit of a people who are unhampered
and free to express themselves of
country which processes Christianity,
yet shuts her eyes to the horrors with
in it's limits.
In all states in the American Union
legislators are adopting resolutions
urging their representatives in Cong
ress to abrogate the present treaty
with Russia because of it's refusal to
recognize American citizens without
regard to race or creed.
This is not a Jewish question, be-
cause others besides Jews, but bear
ing the title of American citizenship,
are barred, 1t is purely question
of recognition of American citizens
without regard to religious belief, and
the attitude of leading men through
