THE STRIKE At ADAMS
over 500 Out to Enforce Demand For
Closed Shop.

| All four mills which comprise the
mammoth plant of the Berkshire cot
ton manufacturing company in Ad-
ans, where strike of the weavers is
in progress because the officials OF
| the company refused to discharge
| four non union men in mill No. 4,
were closed yesterday, 25OO hands be-
| ing left idle The many groups OF Ia
borers about the town made it appear
like Saturday afternoon. At o.
clock yesterday about 200 weavers as
sembled in the union hall on Spring
street to discuss matters. Andrew
Godek, president of the union, pre-
sided and made an address, as did
other officers and members of the
union. The meeting lasted nearly
two hours and at its conclusion a
statement was given out. 1t is the
first made by the union since the
strikers left mill No. 4 Monday
morning
The officials of the union say that
for about six months past there has
been a desire among the union mem
bers TO make the Berkshire cotton
manufacturing company's plant a
union plant They say that of the
| 1900 or 1900 weavers employed, all
but about 100 belong to the union.
In mill No. 4, where the trouble
started, out of 400 weavers, only four
were outside the union. Since the
strike one of the four, young Pc
lish girl has been admitted to the
union and now there are only three
outside the union in that mill. OF
these three, two are Polish and one
is a German. The desire now is, so
long as the strike has started, to get
all the other weavers in the other
mills to be in it and the union Off
Gals say that many had joined since
the strike began. Many took out their
cards at yesterday afternoons meet
| ing and it is expected to have all or
nearly all in the union by Friday af-
ternoon. when the next meeting will
| be held
None of the other unions represent
atives were present to speak at the
meeting, though some were there to
hear what was said. At present many
of the employees have gone out of
town on vacations and expect to re-
turn when the trouble at the mills is
over. Some of the weavers, especial
ly the Polish, are said to have left
town and gone to work elsewhere, but
this is not believed. AS yet no out
side influences have been brought to
bear upon the situation. The general
feeling is that the strike will not last
more than week, though there is no
certainty upon which to base this be-
lief.

ROYAL MAST TREES.
Mark Of the Broad Arrow on Plymouth
Colony Pines.

Mark Of the Broad Arrow on Plymouth
Colony Pines.
In the provincial charter of 1901
under which the Plymouth Colony and
the Province of Maine were united
with Massachusetts, 1t was provided
that all trees of the diameter of "a
inches and upward IL inches from
the ground, growing upon land not
heretofore granted to any private per
son, should be reserved to the crown
for the furnishing of masts for the
royal navy.
A encouragement of woods was
appointed to see that this provision
of the charter was carried into effect
Near the coast all white pines of suit
able dimensions were marked with
the broad arrow'-three cuts through
the bark with an axe, like the track
of crow. This was the kings mark
Long after the revolution had OBJ
liberated the royal authority men who
had been taught in boyhood to respect
the kings mark hestitated to cut such
trees.
In telling tree ii was necessary to
bed it, to prevent its breaking This
was done by cutting the small growth
and placing the small trees across the
hollow, so that there should be nc
strain upon one section more than up
on another when the monster pine
struck the ground.
The mast was hauled out OF the
woods on one strong sled whether in
winter or summer, and so many oxen
we're required that the hind pair were
often choked in crossing a hollow, be
ing hung up in their yoke by the pull
ing of those ahead of them.
A mast hauling was a great event
and everybody within walking dis
lance came to see it.-Harpers Week.

What Uniontown Thinks o. Us.

The city Of Marion in executive
session recently passed an ordi-
nance which makes it a punish
able crime to let chickens stray
from your own property. 1t is
an up-to-date amendment to the
stock law and is certain 10 bring
practical benefits or cause trou-
bic among otherwise friendly
neighbors.
We are not certain as to the
underlying cause of this novel
law. 1t may have emanated
from a council who were lovers
of fowls and considered it wiser
to be liable TO a small fine for
allowing their delicious. NINA
ture humming birds commonly
called extra-ultra-spring chick
ens) stroll into neighbours
yard than to let him have the
traditional right to mercilessly
eat them when caught on his
place. Or it may have been en-
acted by men, who, being non
raisers Of chickens, prefer the
beauty and cleanliness of flowers
and shrubbery more than the
price of fowls.
Regardless of its origin. how
ever, the city Of Marion is to be
commended on its spirit of pro.
gressiveness, and if they enforce
it strictly, there is no reason
why it should not assist greatly
in elevating civic pride. Union
