The socialists only contest elections in England when they see an opportunity of winning, as IL costs s2, 900 to contest each election district. The expense of the BOer war was tne first event to wake up the BriLsn V orkingmen. The Tan Vale decision against English trade unions aroused the men, as they saw that no uhlon treasury was safe from the employers 1T the workers went out on strike, ln- dependent political action was decioed upon in 1900 at a conference which or ganized & labor representation com ' nlittee. Two members were elected 70 the house in that year. In lsOb, ~ labor members were returned. Now out of 42 labor members about halr are socialists These who are socialists are blamed for the shortcomings of the nc II socialists.

MANY BARRELS BURNED.
Boys Had Good Luck and Fine Wsath
 CT for Their Annual Fires.

The boys had been very successful m the gathering of barrels for their annual Thanlssgiving fires and being favored by good weather on Thursday the burning stacks attracted much at tention in various sections of the city and town.
 Every locality had it's big fire and many were out to witness the burn ing.
 Not all the crowds were favored as the one assembled on Elizabeth street at what is known as the Knoll. There was a brilliant illumination there by the grammar school boys of that section, there being six tall poles 1lled with barrels while many were burned loosely. It was claimed they had gathered $50. The unusual and unexpected attraction there, however, was a stump speech by Michael Moore, who volunteered his services in behalf of the custom. Standing on n large dry goods box he addressed the boys for IS minutes, telling them of his prowess as a barrel gatherer. He told how the gangs used to operate in the days gone by and was loudly applaud ed at the close.

family notified their attorneys and it happened that a member of the firm was in this country at the time, and upon receipt of the letter across the water he was cabled concerning it and began to run down the writer.
 Mr. Cummings was an attendant at the hospital at Howard, R. l.. at the time he wrote and the representative of the law firm hastened there to see hum. he found that Mir. Cummings had left Howard for the Norwich state hospital, and he came here in search of the young man. Mir. Cummin ss had left Howard q day or two after writ in~ the letter and was here as an at tendant for a few days a week to two weeks ago. When the attorney reach ed here Mir. Cummings had gone, his services at the hospital being dispensed with, and since then 1t has been ab- so1utely impossible to locate him.
 There was certain information which MT. Cummings gave to the family in the letter which the lawyer said the members of the family alone knew. and for that reason it is believed that Cummings has either seen the young rnan, or someone intimately acquainted with the family, or is the wanted young man himself.
 It has been thought the missing Eng1ishman may have been tempora- lily deranged and that Cummings may have seen him at one of the hospitals at the springs in Montana where he was employed Much depends upon finding him and getting his story. A telegram sent to Montana brought no results Where. Mir Cumr1in~- went from here was not known at the state hospital. though all assistance possl- hle was given the searcher on his visit here.
