DECLARES HELL
INVENTED BY MAN
Mrs. Kate Trimble Woolsey, Apostle Of
Free Thought, Denounces

"Hell was a man-made invention,
declared beautiful Mrs. Kate Trimble
Woolsey, who stopped in New York on
her way to Chicago to open the ma
tional convention of liberal leagues.
Mrs. Woolsey was the delegate at-large
from the United States to the interna-
tional free thought congress at Brus-
sells last summer. What she then termed
the new "Lord IS prayer" in converting
the assembly, has been adopted by the
free thinkers throughout the world.
"They found hell useful for nearly
1000 years." she continued, ito intimi-
date weak minded women and then

mated this horrible belief from the
heart of man as it has overcome other
frightful crimes and brutalities.
"What distortion of the deity to
endow him with the cruelty and brutal
ity of man. 1t is a part of the same
theology which classes woman with
dumb beasts, which has inflicted polit
ical, legal and civic death on the
feminine sex.
"It is woman who has emancipateC

RAILROAD LAND SURVEYED.
Government Asks N. P. to Advance
S64.512. Their Share.

The Northern Pacific Railway com
pany will be required to deposit with
the interior department $64, 512 in pre-
payment of the cost of surveying 40
townships in Washington. Instructions
to ask the railway company for this
amount has been issued.
The lands designated for survey in
Montana are in the south central part
of the state Immediately north of the
Yellowstone National park.
The townships in Washington are
in Kittitas, Chelan, King and Sno'
homish counties, and are said to be
heavily timbered. The greater part OF
this land, says statement issued by
the interior department, although grant
ed to the Northern Pacific under its
original grant, is valuable, but has es
capped taxation by the states because il
has never been surveyed.
Legislation passed at the last session
of congress provided for rushing the
survey The railroad, under the law, il
required to advance the money sufficien
to pay its proportion of the cost.
This order will be followed by other
from time to time, it is said, and TIL
companies affected will be called upol
to deposit the necessary funds.

GARMENT WORKERS STRIKE
In CHICAGO CAUSING
Much SUFFERING.
Garment Workers Have Been on Strike
for Last Four Months-City Authori-
ties and Unionists Are Puzzled How
to Get Supplies-Much Sickness
Among Children.

Eight thousand infants in Chicago
face death from starvation and disease
as the result of the garment workers
strike, which for four months has
dragged its length out there with no
prospect of settlement in sight.
This is the statement of both city
authorities and union sympathizers, the
latter of whom are at their wits end
to obtain milk for the babies in the
strikers homes, many of whom are al
ready in the shadow of death from
want.
During this week the health authori-
ties reported more than one hundred
cases of pneumonia and diphtheria
among these children, with large num-
Der of deaths. With the utter exhaus-
ton of the milk supply-now less than
week away, if charity contribution do
not increase-it is expected that cold
hunger and illness will quickly end the
miseries of scores of the younger
children.
At least one of the strikers, Mrs
Siegelheimer, has already died of starva
ton. For the support of her two chill
dren, with whom she lived in a dingy
basement, the woman had been forag
ing crusts from garbage cans. Of even
such aid as was available she wa:
apparently ignorant and the pool
provender she found went into the
mouths of her children.
When nature gave out the woman fel
across her miserable pallet and wa'
found dying by neighbors. Although re
moved at once to a hospital, she wal
too weak to rally and the only fruit O.
her sacrifice is that her babes have beer
taken into the home of another strike
little further removed from the fang
of the hunger wolf.

Fruit packers have had serious trouble
in two ways with the old-style can.
Not only would fruits become scorched,
but the sugar used in the syrup that
is poured upon them would be carbon
lied if in contact with the tin heated
by the hot soldering iron. This car
donated sugar takes the shape of the
little black specks distributed through
out the contents of the can. No solder
being used the fruit put up in sani-
tary can is not subject to these specks.
The sanitary tin has been a boom
to canned goods, and when the proper
facilities present themselves for can
ming in connection with this container
then we will see greater amount of
canned goods sold.

Pea Packing Industry.

One of the largest industries in the
canned vegetable line in the United
States is that of packing peas, perhaps
100000 cases are packed annually, |
ranking third, tomatoes being first with
a record of 100000 cases and corn
second with 100000 cases, says Whole
sale Grocer.
But of the three, in proportion to the
number of cases packed, peas do not
compare with the others in the use of
sanitary cans. We find other canned
vegetables being packed in sanitary
cans to large extent.
Some of the buyers in the wholesale
grocery houses could not give the reason
why sanitary cans were not used IN
packing peas and even went so far as
to state that the matter should be
looked into and Gamers should be en-
couraged to pack peas in this class OF
tins and stated the obvious reasons
why they should be.
The consumer comes forth with
complaint now and then regarding the
solder in the pea can, which is found
more often in peas than in other canned
goods. The reason given by one Gamer
| for this is that peas are tribe
harder to cap than other articles on
account of the syrup and sometimes In
putting the tip in the cap a little of
the solder will run through into the
syrup.
h Comparatively few peas are now
packed in the United States in sanitary
tins but in time all peas will be packed
in this sort of container. In Europe
all peas are packed in sanitary can.
The advantage of sanitary cans in
packing peas is not as great as in pack
ing other vegetables and fruits. All
pea canning machinery is adapted es-
pecially to the soldered can and the
large opening of the sanitary can does
not possess any special advantage.
One Gamer also stated that IL would
cost about ten cents more dozen tC
! pack peas in sanitary cans than 1T does
at present and that the jobber and re
taller would hardly stand for this diff
ference in price.
The sanitary can is every day gain
! ing favor and year after year the out
put of the manufacturers of sanitar,
cans is increasing This year the san
, itary can has been adopted almost OK
? clusively in California for fruits ant
\ vegetables. Fruit packers in Washing
!. ton and Oregon are using it entirely
!. the salmon packers have used grea
many million cans this year and
good percentage of the Columbia rive
pack this year will be in the sanitar
can.
/ When machinery is put on the ma,
e ket for filling and handling the SAN
e tary can in manner equal to that o
d the market today for handling standar
s cans, there is no question but wha
q packers will install the new machiner
v and pack peas and corn in sanitar
\ tins.
u The men engaged in handling canine
q goods from the packer to the consume
e all realize the superiority of the san
tary can over the old-style can, an
goods packed in sanitary tins have
selling advantage over goods packe
# in ordinary tins.
" The salmon packer welcomed tn
h sanitary can. With the old-style can
- was necessary for the salmon packt
- to lay loose piece of tin between tn
III vent and the fish before soldering
m order to prevent the less of the enricl
E. ing oil as far as possible. But this
unnecessary with the sanitary ca,
