ROMEO CAUGHT IN CHIMNEY
Curious Antics Of 4 Breton Lover
Arouse Excitement In Village
In Brittany.

This story comes straight from Nor.
laix, very modern place in Brittany.
Our Romeo, like Chaucer's hero was
caught In the chimney He was go
ing to his sweetheart, instead of run
ming away from her. The pretty
Juliette was distance of some seven
miles from his home. The enamored
Romeo tramped 1t on foot all that
distance. At night he reached the
house, and called, but got no answer.
AS the door was shut he decided to
try the roof. On the roof he found
the chimney, and 1t seemed to him
that was quite wide enough to let him
down. He descended for some dis
tance, but then, as he came near the
fireplace. the chimney narrowed. He
slipped and got in a narrow neck.
Here he WAS caught, unable to move
up or down. Before long he felt q
suffocating sensation. If the thing
lasted much longer it would be the
end of him. He could stand 1t no
more. After groaning he yelled, and
he beloved so we'll that not only was
his sweetheart disturbed in her slum-
bers. but the whole village was ex-
cited
The nearest chimney-sweep was
called but he could not help him out.
The gendarmes woke up the mayor,
and he, with all the Hotables of the
place, went to look. They consulted
among them, and the only way to
liberate the captive lover was to pull
down part of the chimney. This was
done by some masons, and he was
presently released, but before being
allowed his freedom a police report
was drawn up, with a view to infiict'
Ing series Of fines for breaking into
private inclosure, damaging other
peoples property, waking up the au-
thorities unnecessarily, and causing a

WILLING WILLIE HEARST.

William Alsorandolph Hearst has
Just chartered an entire floor and

garden) of Baltimore hotel for his
private use during the national DEM.
ocratic convention next summer.
This is more room than any other
politician has reserved-much more
than Woodrow Wilson or Judson
Harmon are to have for their head
quarters.
In view of the fact that William
probably had rather be president
than right, and furthermore that he
has exercised in sprints for the may
orally of New York and governor of
New York, there is but one conclus
ion-that willing little Willie looks
with greedy eyes upon the democrat
ic nomination, end it must be remem-
bered that this is Mr.. Hearst's year
to be democrat.
Williams five great papers print
ed in Boston, New York, Chicago, Los
Angeles and San Francisco, are
booming Speaker Clark to be the
or do Loo
1t is reasonable to suppose that
Mr.. Hearst understands that Clark
does not stand any more show of be-
ing nominated than crippled chick
en- has of flying across the Atlantic
ocean. Woodrow Wilson and Judson
Harmon loom strong. If Hearst can
succeed in dividing the strength of
these men and under the pretext of
supporting Clark, cause deadlock at
the convention, little Willie will ap-
pear at the psychological moment to
sever the bonds that hold the heroine
to the track, dragging her from the
rails of death just as the 7:1O dash
es by at midnight.
If such complications set in, Will
liam, so his five g. p. adroitly admit,
could be persuaded to take up the
cross of the democratic party and
the same five great papers are au-
thority for the information that Will
liam boy would make a pretty good
president OF the U. S. A.
OF course he will not be nominat-
ed-there is limit to the foolish
things that even the democrats will
do, but the one solemn thought is
that simply because man has more

kIER HARDIE AGAIN PRocLAIMs
HIS FAITH IN THE EFFICACY
OF TRADE UNIONS.

Washington-Upon the recent visit of
kier Hardie to this city, he was rendered
banquet at one of the hotels by the
local Socialist organization. President
Gompers, Secretary Morrison, and sew
eral other trade unionists were extended
invitations to be present, and President
Gompers attended. Kier Hardie is in
this country making a speaking tour in
the interest of the Socialist ticket, and
came to Washington upon his own mo-
ton, as he stated, to call upon President
Gompers and Secretary Morrison, the
former having been known by Kier
Hardie for many years. Mr. Hardie Wis.,
tied the Federation offices and spent
some time in an Interview and looking
through the Offices of the Federation.
At the banquet Kier Hardie, of course
advocating Socialism. made many perti-
nent remarks with reference to the trade
unions of this country. There exists
in this country friction between Social
ism and the trade unions, and the shafts
from the Socialists have been particular
ly directed toward the president of the
American Federation of Labor. When
ever the time comes that any Socialist
or combination of Socialists can demon
strate their ability to build up and main
tain as strong and as effective an organ
iZation as the American Federation of
LdDOT-tue QlTeCI result OF the eUOTIS
of Samuel Gompers and his colleagues
then the Socialists may have some foun-
dation upon which to base their criti-
cism. The trade unions" continued Mr..
Hardie, "are not only essential, but abb
solutely necessary, and must be con-
tinued in their effective form, and moth
ing should be done by the Socialists or
any one interested in the general build
ing up of the workmen's movement to
obstruct or disintegrate the unions of
labor"
die and expressed himself as entirely in
accord with the utterances of the dis
tinguished Britisher in reference to the
trade unions, and stated he could appro-
pirate Hardie's speech as his own, with
the elimination of the references to So
cialism. Mr. Gompers drew attention to
the fact that the conditions in America
were unlike any other country on the
globe. With its polyglot population, its
tens of thousands of immigrants every
year, its increasing colored population
and its threatened invasion by the
people of Oriental countries, presented a
phase that had no comparison Presi-
dent Gompers emphasized the fact that
the Federation would continue in the
even tenor of its way to carry out its
work as laid down by its members in
the interest of the workers of the coun-
try, and that the labor movement of this
country would still continue to work out
its destiny according to the concept of
affiliates.

Sure, the lhabor unions invinted tn

is the slogan of the man who uses the
trademark
In the last half century many labor or
gan1zations, always alive to their interest
and embracing in their ranks the best
workmen to he had, have also adopted a
trademark. 1t is the union label. 1t
stands not only as a guarantee of the
best article to be had in the line indi-
Gated, but it also guarantees that the
persons employed in that particular line
of industry receive good wages, work
reasonable hours in sanitary workshops,
are healthy. happy and contented, and
thus are well equipped to put forth their
best efforts for their employers. The
union label also is the emblem of free
dom. Under conditions obtaining where
it is used workmen are not slaves. In
stead of sad faces in the union work.

SOCIAL ENTERTAINMENT SUCCESS.

The social entertainment given by
Union Label League Friday evening,
Nov. 1, in place of the regular meeting,
was a success in every way and thor
oughly enjoyed by all those who were
fortunate enough to be present Owing
to the fact that the political campaign
was in full swing and that Jane Addams
of Hull House fame was speaking at the
Auditorium, the attendance was not as
large as was expected.
Addresses along labor and label lines
were made by Otto Thum, W. F. Hynes,
an old railroad engineer; c. ]. Moor
house, R. E. Croskey and Judge Morris,
which were both entertaining and in
structive.
In the absence of the president, the
meeting was opened by Vice President
Stoughton, who stated the purpose of the
entertainment and called upon the sec
retary-treasurer, Edw. j. Hines, who
gave a short history of the league and
stated the meaning of the union label
and what it stands for.
Miss Brandon favored the audience
with instrumental and vocal solos which
were greatly enjoyed and appreciated.
e. c. Stoughton, vice-president of the
League, rendered several songs which
stamp him as pleasing entertainer
along these lines, and received the ap-
plause which they deserved
Mrs. Brandon, member of the Cigar
makers union and delegate to the
League, gave recitation entitled "The
Workhouse," which was real treat and
proves this lady to be an elocutionist of
the first class.
Refreshments were served, consisting
of sandwiches and coffee and ice cream
and cake, and at late hour the enter
tainment came to close, all those pres
ent expressing their appreciation of the
League hospitality and desire to be
present at future socials of this organ
ization.

HUMANITARIANisM OF THE TYPO.
GRAPHICAL UNION SUBJECT OF
MOVING PICTURE.

Washington-The Thomas A. Edison
company has just released for produc-
ton in motion picture theaters through
out the United States a film entitled "a
Durable Disease" The prominent fea-
ture OF the picture Is taken from scenes
at the Union Printers Home, at Colo
rado Springs, Colo. 1t is a strong. dra-
matte story, and deals with the white
plague, showing the conditions that
arise in the life of young linotype ma
chine operator who contracts tubercu-
losis while working on New York daily.
AS in nearly all films of this character,
there is woven through 1t love story
Inc principal figure is depicted as show
ing his deep affection for a young girl,
and eventually his engagement and prep
aration for marriage. All goes well until
within few days of the wedding, when
the machine operator hears from the
doctor that he has become a victim of
the dread disease. With the admonition
of his medical adviser that he should
not marry until cured, he takes advan-
tage OF the opportunity, which the Inter-
national typographical union presents
10 all OF its members, by Immediately
seeking entrance into the Union Print
ers' Home at Colorado Springs. The
hlm then portrays all OF the interesting
points in connection with the home
whose bounty is unpurchasable." The
American Federation of Labor has Just
been notified in advance of the contem-
plated distribution of the film in order
that publicity might be given through
the Weekly News Letter to the organ
izations of labor throughout the country
Local organizations of labor desiring to
have this film displayed should consult
local moving picture theaters and in
form the management of the existence
OF this film and the company which is
In possession of it. A picture of this
kind cannot but help to materially as

DEMAND THE UNION LABEL.
It Is the Stamp of Fair Dealing and EN-
bIem of Freedom.

In many European countries manufac-
turers place great value upon their
trademarks. This is more particularly
true of England and Germany, where
for hundreds of years the trademarks Of
firms have been carefully protected
There is but on reason for this. The
trademark OF these manufacturers
stamped plainly upon everything they
produce is a guarantee to the purchaser
that the article is the best of its kind
to be had. In the United States the
trademark has not been so generally
adopted. In the East, however, where
some manufacturing plants have been
in continuous operation for two or three
hundred years, the trademark still Is
used These plants were in all likeli-
hood started by men who came from the
other side of the Atlantic. To these
men the trademark is the stamp OF
honor It's principal significance is that
the manufacturer who owns 1t and
places it upon his wares is not ashamed
to let any one know who manufactured
