TENEMENT HOUSE INDUSTRIES.
Disease Breeding Occupations Told
in Speeches and Pictures.

The scant wages and long hours
of the sweatshop workers and the
unsanitary conditions of tenement
nouse industries that breed disease
and cause suffering among New
York's poor was the subject at the
annual meeting Of the Consumers
League at tho Ethical Culture
school. There was an exhibition of
goods made in tenement houses and
stereopticon views illustrating the
work actually going on. The photo
graphs were taken last fall The ex-
hibits number sixty and show sam
plies of work done. The wages the
worker gets for his or her labor also
are presented.
For a mere pittance tired hands,
spurred on by the gaunt specter OF
necessity work from daybreak until
night in rooms i'll lighted and poorly
ventilated One willow plume on ex
hibition contains 1900 knots, the
work of woman and her three chill
dren for which they received $2.10.
Thousands exc out an existence
making artificial flowers, for which
they receive from 3 to cents
gross. The average daily earning of
a worker is 80 cents. Children as
young as five years and men 80
years of age are shown working
side by side. Crocheted bed slippers
which find such a ready sale in the
shops are made in the tenements
and paid for at the rate OF 40 cents
a dozen pair.
Another luxury enjoyed by women
of wealth and fashion is the chiffon
gown. Few of the weafers of these
| delicate lace creations realize that
the lace is a product of densely
| packed tenements of the Italian
| quarter. The Italians are expert lace
makers and one of the photograph
i ic exhibits shows boy of 2 en-
| broidering lace for chiffon gown.

TIE DEMOCRATS kNR TIE
TARIFF.

Having come into power by virtue
of an express promise to revise the
tariff downward, the democrats can
hardly heed the cry of those business
men who are adjuring the democrats
10 wait until they can get the light
which the tariff board is expected to
shed on the subject To subject
themselves to the taunt of having
neglected so favorable an opportun1-
ty as is given in the special session
would be almost fatal to their hope
of success in the presidential cleo
ton The democrats must give some
evidence of good faith, and the con
sequences of failure would be too
grave to justify them in hazarding
the uncertainties OF tariff board
report.
However. what little the demo
Gratis can hope to accomplish at the
special session will not at all impair
the value of the tariff boards work.
They can not hope to do more than
pass four or five bills attacking spe-
cifio schedules, and they can not
hope to cut these even to the degree
which the tariff board report may
show that they ought to be cut. The
bills which the democrats pass will
have to be, not such as they particu-
larly like. but such as President
Taft will tolerate: for if they should
pass a series of radical bills, know
ing as they do that they would be
vetoed, the country would have jus,
reason to question the sincerity OF
their conduct While it is perhaps not
necessary to reduce tho tariff wall
layer by layer, neither can it be raz-
ed with dynamite. Both the revenue
requirements of the government and
the adjustment of business to the
conditions of extreme protectionism
require that the reduction should be
made carefully and gradually. When
a man has long been accustomed to
strong stimulants, the cure Of him is
in reducing gradually the quantity
he has been in the habit of taking

SAVED FROM THE SEA

Galveston, Texas, March TO-
Word has reached Galveston that the
German steamship Hans Mcneil, for
many years in the trade between
Texas City and Mexican ports, char
tered by the Wolvin line, has been
lost at sea. The Hans Mcneil was
last in Texas City in December when
in attempting to leave the channel
she struck a submerged obstruction

necessary that she be towed into
Vera Cruz and Tampico by the tug

ship Suram.
The story OF the captain is har-
rowing one, telling OF being wrecked
In a hurricane and of several days
battle with wind and rising water
in the hold finally fire adding to
the terror.
The Hans Mcneil was in command
of Captain Larchauser and he and
all OF his men were saved, although
several are still suffering from the
four days exposure.

IDEA FOR BEDSPREAD
HOMEMADE ARTICLE BETTER
THAN CAN Be BOUGHT.
Cost Not by Any Means Prohlbitive,
and the Work Will BE Enjoyed
II One Has the Time
to Spare.

A good tedspread is, as rule. an
expensive luxury, and one that all
housekeepers like to indulge in, so
any new ideas on this subject are well
come, particularly when the outlay Is
small and the result elegant and un-
common. The bedspread here de-
scribed is handsome, and the whole
arrangement costs less than many
bedspreads which cannot compare
with it. The motif is poker work on
velvet
The four squares are employed,
made OF ivory white velyeteen, and
as they are each IS inches square, two
yards of velveteen will be required;
divide this into four strips, then make
square of each strip-a few inches
OF each portion must be torn on to
make the square. Remember to al
ways tear velveteen; never cut 1t.
The decoration of the square is an
arrangement of the wild rose. the deli
cate coloring of which tones with al
most any color scheme; the design is
simple and those workers who cannot
draw well will be able to trace the
pattern on velvet by means of strong
tracing paper; the tracing must, OF
course, be repeated into the other
three squares.
Work one square at time, and
when the drawing is complete go
quickly over it with the poker point;
do not burn deeply, as this particular
design needs delicate handling.
The painting must not be too strong,
but of such quality as to give real
istic appearance, and great care must
be taken to keep the colors pure.
For the leaves use a little Prussian
blue mixed with lemon chrome, and
her and there they can be varied by
touches Of burnt sienna, deep chrome
and crimson. Paint the stalks with
delicate green, and the siennas, and
the roses themselves must be very
lightly touched; permanent crimson
the petals are quite rosy, brush a
little of this on pure; wipe all color
OF the brush and gently soften the
color down. Very little II any white
must be used, as 1t is apt to give the
roses a leaden. heavy look. but II just
touched with faint, pure color the 70
suit will be fresh-looking flowers.
The chief difficulty of the work Is
now explained and the squares require
to be made up.
The lace, which must be fairly thick.
must be of the same shade of velvet
and the kind selected will, of course.
depend upon how much the worker
can give; the lace that Is used for
some window blinds will be found
suitable.
The insertion must be Of the same
style as. the border. and to insure per-
feet fitting join the insertion together
in the shape of Maltese cross and
lay square into each angle.
