WONDERFUL DREAM.

Last Thursday was nationa
Thanksgiving Dag, supposed tc
be observed by all the people ir
the nation. How many II us are
"a grateful to the Giver OF al
things ~ we should be? Do you
know the world condemns IN
gratitude. much less the church
You let a man bestow a special
favor upon another and ut some
future time this man turns his
back upon the man that showed
him the favor and the world calls
him an ungrateful dog. Now,
do you know that God bestows
special favor upon ia every mo-
ment OF our lives and how often
do we turn our back upon Him
some fellow may say that il
had as much money or property
as some other fellow that ] could
be thankful. Let ne tell you
that il you are not thankful over
little you wonld not be thankful
over much. | caanot help but
think OF tine following beautiful
lines OF poetry. in which, graft
tude IS expressed in every line.
We thank Thee
For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song Of bird for hum Of bee
For al things fair we hear or see,
Father IN heaven, we thank Thee.
For blue Of stream aud blue of sky;
For pleasant shade of branches high /;
For fragrant air and cooling breeze;
tor beauty of blooming trees,
Father III heaven we thank Thee.
We should ponder deeply the
lovely and beautiful sentiments
brought out in this title poem by
the immortal Emerson. In the

scription and brag on the Noted

up an interesting and instructive
paper. Now know that the
Noted Dreamer's dreams are well
worth the money that the Eagle
costs you per year. because a
very prominent gentleman that
had just returned from the Luna
tic asylum very much improved
in his mind by the fine treatment
that he received at the hands o.
those fine doctors there told me
that one OF my dreams is worth

Thank You Mr. Fogel And You too, Mr. Murphy
For Keeping the Baseball Writers Busy but Bored

In these days of the waning base
ball interest thanks must be paid to
Horace Fogel. the Phillies' president,
and Charles Webb Murphy, the Cubs
boss.
Despite the fact that IT. is more or
less boresome either 10 write or read
what these men have to say. theS
are the only breezes stirring besides
the baseball yaudevillia9s' presR
agents, so they must be needed.
Fogel tells the eager public that
he has all kinds OF offers for his
Philadelphia club. The wise cor.
respondents saw that Fogel rules the
Philadelphia club manly through
proxies. But he says he ~ going TO
sell.
They are actually fighting to buy
his club from him, he announces The
result of all the fight probably will be
that Fogel and the Phillies will re.
main just as they are.
Charlie Doom, the clever red-head-
ed Philly manager-catcher-acto lawfs
when his name Is suggested as that
OF the next Cubs manager. He says
he'll be with the Phillies, Horace or
no Horace next season.
And in the meantime. Charles Webb

Of the Cubs will be a young fellow,
with determined jaw. prominent
ears, hair parted on the left side. clev-
er player, etc. etc. Which has set
them to guessing. The guessing is
three that the next manager Is John
ny Evers, to two that II is Joe Tinker
and one that II is Charlie Doom.
Murphy says that next year he
wants some great distance elimina-
tors, commonly known as "other" Ty
Cobbs and speed maryels, on his
team. This Is very strange. for most
managers steer shy OF the fast boys
and prefer the truckhorses.
Finally the fumors that the Cubs
were all soused the time OF the final
Chicago city series game were put at
rest when IL was pointed out that all
the enterprising saloonkeepers IN
Chicago claimed Immediately after the
rumors started that the Cubs were In
his bar. There were SO many saloon
keepers the Cubs, bat boys and mas.
cots wouldn't go around, so perished
the rumors.
And, now, Messrs. .Fogel and MUIR
ply, keep 1t up until November. Then,
tie football craze will have submerg-
ed baseball so much that such mild
surprises as you have been springing
will fail to inte.iest.

Horse racing at the Porter track was
definitely stopped for the day whel
Company F Of the third infantry, sent
there by Governor Marshall to stop
gambling. lined up across the race
track
The horses were started of, but the
troopers lined up with drawn bayon-
cts and shouted, halt" The horses
were stopped and the races were de-
clared of for the day.
Wholesale damage suits against the
state are threatened by the race
course promoters. The promoters
may not try to hold any more events

Two companies OF state militia
today took possession OF the Min
eral Springs race track. The sol
diers were ordered TO the course
by Governor Marshall through his
private secretary, Mark Tbisthlc-
waite. after reports had been re-
eeived from Burns detectives de-
claring there was more gambling
there yesterday than any day since
the meeting had been in progress
The two companies called out are
Company + of South Bend and Com
pany M OF Rensselar, both OF the
Third Infantry. As soon as the
guardkmen arrived today, they were
stationed around the enclosure and
no one was allowed TO enter.
Trouble started at once when
Major Freyermouth, Of South Bend
reached the Porter track with Com
pany r., OF the Third Infantry.
A. r. Knots, in charge OF the track
defed the militiamen to enter tho
grounds, then demanded that each
should pay admission. Freyermouth.
dIsregarding his protests. ordered his

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.--Both on
Europe's stock exchanges and on our
own. there were some signs today OF
n slackening pressure on the markets.
lis was In spite OF apparently well.
rounded reports that several stock
exchange members at Paris had got
into financial trouble, and that their
associates In the Bourse had been
forced to take over their. speculative

Jhis was doubtless an echo Of the
recent untimely and ilLfated boom In
Russian industrials, and II Ia prob
able that, as frequently happens on
such occasions, financial markets
were relieved rather than disturbed
by the actual news. When such
things are only In the stage OF rum

apt to let It's imagination run little

early break, due to continental liquid

ALIEN LABOR CASE TAKEN UP.
Wickersham to Get Evidence Against
Wool Mill Men.

Boston, Nov. ls.-William II. Garland,
assistant United States district attor-
ney, returned Saturday from Washing
ton. where he conferred with Attorney
General Wiekersham regarding the eases
of Treasurer Francis Vernon Wiley of
the South Barre Wool Combing company
and Arthur I. Saville, an alleged agent.
The defendants are charged with vio-
lating the alien contract labor law by
the alleged importation of foreign hands
for employment at the Barre factory.
They were arraigned before United
States Commissioner Hayes and released
on 5000 bail. The Federal Grand jury
heard the evidence against the two men,
but has never publicly reported its find
ings.
Their counsel, Charles VI. Choate was
present at the conference in Washing
ton. Mr.. Garland was instructed to pre-
pare a detailed report of all phases of
the case and submit il TO Attorney-tsen-
eral Nickcrsham.

DROPS BOX OF DYNAMITE
AND FIVE ARE KILLED
A Laborer, Numb from the Cold, Lets
1t Slip into Stone
Quarry.

Philadelphia, Nov. lS.--Five men were
ules, so as to insure safety while trains
on the Baltimore Central division were
passing.
Arrangements had been made for the
$50 blast, and the Italians who worked
for the General Crushed Stone company
were engaged in carrying the explosive
over to the quarry Several OF the
men complained their hands had been
benumbed by the first cold Of the VIM
ter.
1t is believed that the man who
dropped the nitroglycerine was so be-
numbed that he lost control of the use
OF his hands, and the box slipped away
from him.
Several pedestrians and workmen had
narrow escapes from flying stones. Many
received minor cuts that were dressed
by surgeons from the Media hospital.
A general panic was narrowly averted
in the House of Refuge, the citys re-
formatory institution for boys and girls.
There are almost 900 inmates at the
two houses. When the blast went off,
windows were shattered and the boys
were more hysterical than the girls.
At nearby paper mill there was
wild scramble for safety, which was
stopped when the cause of the prema-
ture explosion was ascertainel.

at Rochester Sessions-public
Meetings To-day.

| Rochester. n. ", Nov. lS.-Sunday

other labor leaders who are in the city
for the thirty second annual convention
of the American Federation of Labor.

afternoon. Mr.. Gompers, president
John b. Lennon, treasurer; Raymond
Robins, of Chicago, and Miss Maude
Younger, of San Francisco, will be the
chief speakers.
In the evening leaders of the fedora
ton will address meetings of semi
religious character in two theatres.
The absence from town of j. Mahlon
Barnes, national chairman of the Social
list party. has postponed developments in
the anti-Gompers struggle that is ex-
pected to take place next week.
A mass of resolutions have been pre-
pared for sessions which viii be resumed
Monday.
Among the resolutions to be debated is
one demanding free school books and
that copyright OF such books be vested
in state school authorities.
A resolution introduced by James p.
Holland. of the Central Federated union
of New York, demands that the lnterua-
tional Typographical union be called
upon to organize the news of the eoun-
try.
Another resolution calls for the re-
moval of John Williams, commissioner
of labor of New York state, on account
of his alleged reluctance to aid the labor
in prosecuting violators of
the labor laws.

Umbrellas and Handles. ,

Because of the tremendous vogue of
velvets and the number of costumes in
that material that are being made up,
the velvet -eneased umbrella has come
into being Made ON slender but sub
stantial frame, which folds closely, and
covered with a silk taffeta spread, the
umbrella when closed and encased, APP
pears like walking stick of velvet from
ferrule to top. A solid silver monogram
plate caps the handle, which, ten inches
down its length, is ornamented with a
double ring of silver.
