Fifteen Members Of Organi-
zation Thrown Into City
Jail for Night
A MISTAKE WAS MADE
Hurried Action Results in
Bringing Innocent Men
to Station


-bers of the l. W. w. attempting tt
speak on the streets of Aberdeen
again last evening, the riot call was
sent in and within Is minutes, 1906
citizens thronged the streets ready
to enforce the city ordinance regard
ing speaking on the streets and the
violaters were landed in the city jai
where they are still held
The men who sought to show the
people that they would speak, select

the citizens We're at home. They had
also hoped to catch the worlingmen
coming from the mills.
Hardly had the first speaker step.
ped on to his soap box, when a police.
man hauled him down and hustled
him to the police station, and as he
left another took. his place. and so on
until the entire number was taken
into custody.
Adam Shcubert, we'll known social
ist, was seen talking and gestulating
with the members of the |. W. w.
and he was thought to be in the
deal, so was picked up and taken to
the police station as was Max Korn
and a number of other men prominent
in the socialist ranks.
When the matter had quieted down
'chuhert. Korn, Drake and others
were taken to the council chambers,
where Schubert was given hearing.
He proved by witnesses that he was
endeavoring to get the men to re-
citing a riot, and the citizens voted
him an apology for the hasty action.
Korn was questioned and was faced
with witnesses, who stated that he
had used insulting remarks towards
the American flag. He denied having
made the remarks, but when asked
what he thought of Old Glory, stated
that he was an American citizen and
was a law abiding citizen; that he
lived up to the laws which showed
his respect for the flag.
Following a statement from Korn
Schubert and E. V. Harvey, president
of the socialist union to the effect
that they were not interested in the
fight for direct action, as used by the
l. w. w., the meeting adjourned.
In the Jail below, the Is members
sang all through the night. and were
singing national songs this morning
For two days, committee repres
enting the socialists, and one repres
enting the citizens, had been in ses
sion endeavoring to perfect an agree
ment, whereby the council, would
grant any one desiring to speak on
the streets permit. The agreement
had been finally made and was to
have been signed when the members
of the l. w. w. started the demonstra
tion.
Speaking of the matter Adam Schu
bert gave out the following signed
statement to the Herald:
81 am sorry that the labors of the
committee of the socialists and citi
zens were brought to naught by the
erratic action of few I. w. w. mem
bers, having no connection with eth
er party. But hope that permanent
regulation will be brought about in
the near future for the best interests
of the city. If I can, in any way, as
sist to bring this about( will con
slider all trouble and labor we'll paid
Mr.. Schubert suggested that the
vagrancy law be applied in the cases
of the meN now in the city JAIL

Screams Ring in Ears.

"And then with all these there fell
on our ear the most appalling noise
that human being ever listened to,
cries of hundreds of our fellow be-
ings struggling in icy cold water, cry
ing for help with a cry we knew
could not he answered. We longed to
return and pick up some of those
swimming, but this would mean the
swapping Of our boat and further the
loss of our lives. $780,

en- from hearing the cries and rowed
hard to get away from the scene of
the wreck, but think the memory of
those sounds will be one of the things
rescued and they will find it difficult
to efface from their memory. We
were all trying hard not to think Of
it.

BEDBUG STOPS WATCH
Woman Enters Bankers Jewelry
Store With Watch in Which
Bug is Found.
CLERK CRACKS OLD TIME JOKE

"What's the matter with my
watch" asked a woman hastily as
she entered the Barker Jewelry store
the other day, and presented the
time piece to one of the clerks. "It
runs for a while and then stops. I
shake it and it starts up again, but
will not continue for more than an
hour"
<sWhen did you have it cleaned
last?" asked the clerk. ooh, good
ness me, T don't know, it's been a
lcng, long time, I know that much. !"
The clerk examined the watch and
found it ditry, and located among the
works he discovered a bed dug. The
woman was much surprised to see
the accumulation, and upon seeing
the bug, exclaimed, chow do you sup
pose it got in there !" ''Oh, that's
easy" said the clerk, cit must have
crawled in between the ticks He
noticed the grin of the woman and
smiled in return, whereupon he re-
ceived instructions to give the watch
a thorough cleaning.
Watches are marvellous things,

slant labor it performs. The Scien-
tlfic American reports that the roll

Lookout for Lights.

"Presenuly low down on the hori-
zon, we saw a light, which slowly re-
solved itself into double light and
we watched eagerly to see if the two
lights would separate and if so to
prove to be only two of our boats, or
whether they would remain together,
in which case we would expect them
to be a mast head light and a deck
light below Of rescuing steamer,
which was soon made out to be the

'To our amazement, she remained
in that upright position for a time
which I estimated at five minutes;
others in the boat say less, but it was
certainly some minutes while we
watched at least $50 feet of the tt

looming against the sky. s.
"Then with a quiet, slanting tilt,
she disappeared beneath the waters

time on the gigantic vessel we set out
from Southampton on last Wednes-

The Tower building, at so Broadway
