Beware of Moths

Make sure that your WINTER
GARMENTS are free of germs
before you store them away.
Many people believe that a
moth bali kills or destroys the
eggs the moth lays. Such is
not the case. The usual reason
clothes are moth eaten
is because the moth has laid
the eggs in them before they
we're packed away.
Our secret process for the preYen-
ton of moth eaten garments
will guard against this. II you
have valuable garments or fine
clothes send them to us. We
will return them TO You In a
double wrapper ready to put
away. With a guarantee against
moths.
Better still, II you wish it we win
clean, press, repair and store
them for you until next winter
at moderate cost.

UNCLE SAM DEMANDS
STEEL MAIL CARS

.. WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-One of
the important provisions contained in
the post-office appropriation bill is
that which provides for the steel rail-
way mail car.
The position usually assigned the
mail car in the makeup Of the train
is the most perlious, as substantiated
by reference to the fatalities caused
in railroad wrecks. The House Of
Representatives favors requiring the
railroads to retire 20 per cent Of
their wooden. cars each year until
1917, after which time only cars Of
steel construction are to be in use.
The Senate idea is, somewhat differ
ent, allowing the railroads a years
grace, but requiring them after that
to replace rs per cent Of the wooden
mail cars each year. In either case
there would be no wooden cars IN
service after the expiration Of five
years. >.s.-. -..-s 3.
Organization and agitation on the
part Of the mail clerks, backed by
the. American Federation of Labor,
is responsible for bringing congress
to the realization that steel cars are
necessary for the safety of the mail
clerks and is humanitarian legisla-
ton that cannot be ignored.

ATLANTA PRESSMEN
SETTLE BIG STRIKE
Satisfactory Agreement Ar.
ranged Between Publishers
and Trade Unions.

ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. 26.-Some
two weeks ago the Atlanta Web
Pressmen's union was locked out from
the three dailies, the Constitution, the
Georgian, and the Journal, after fail
ing to reach an agreement with the
publishers for a renewal of their con-
tract. 'a:''2
The newspapers in question at
tempted to establish the open shop,
but the pressmen refused to accept
the. dictim Of the employers.
The pressmen, after endeavoring to
reach an adjustment of the difficulty
with the employers and, failing,
sought the assistance of the Atlanta
Federation of Trades.
A committee was appointed from
this latter organization, and after me-
gotiations lasting two days, a con-
tract satisfactory to both the press
men and the publishers was entered
into, and the pressmen have returned
to their former positions on the pa
pers involved in the controversy.
In the Journal of Labor, published
by Jerome Jones, an editorial compll-
ments the wisdom Of the pressmen
and the employers, and emphasizes
the influence exercised by the CEN
tral body in securing this settlement,

ENGLAND ON VERGE
OF ANOTHER STRIKE
Coal Miners of Great Britain Are
Still Observation-Disclosures is
Imminent.

LONDON, Sept. 26.-Another ma
tional coal strike is threatened. It
has long been apparent that the mini
mum uage act had only temporarily
poured little oil on troubled waters,
and the increasing dissatisfaction with
the measure is likely to precipitate
another contest
1t is expected that definite action
will be taken at the annual confer
ence Of the Miners Federation, which
meets at Swansea on Oct. /, and il
is asserted in mining circles that a
new campaign will be decided upon
The parliamentary action which
brought to a close the last strike only
affects, it is contended, few of tho
workers, and the new campaign con-
templated will be in favor of higher
maximum wage for all coal hewe:s
and minimum for surface workers
who are left outside of the act passed
last April.
The more outspoken members of
the MINERS Federation assert that
the minimum wage agitation is mere
ly the beginning of greater cam
paign for all around Improvement in
the condition of the workers in and
around coal mines. ...
It Is also expected that the delegates
at the conference will indorse the
proposal for new national movement
in favor of the naturalization Of coal

"LITTLE MISS MIX.UP."
Caberet Show.

Johnny and Ella Calvin will appear
at the Lyceum for five days next week
commencing Tuesday with a. daily
matinee in their latest musica caberet
show Little Miss Mix-Up."
A recent criticism by a we'll known
critic said in part: "Those who did not
see the Galvins last week missed a
rare treat in the musical comedy line
for the company was excellent in ev-
cry respect. Best of all was Johnny
Calvin, who is one Of the coming
light comedians of the musical comedy
stage and has aready come far. A
graduate from vaudeville and melo-
drame, he has found his most con-
genial line Of work in musical COM
edy. Everything in him fits him for
success in musical comedy roles. He
has the athletic build, the quick move
ments and alert grace Of the vaude-
vile athlete. His experience in the
legitimate has given him the ease of
a finished actor, but above all, an
Unborn sense of fun that twinkles from
his merry blue Irish eyes, makes him
a comedian in the truest sense Of the
word, one who can give humorous
touch to every word or gesture. Add
to this a native refinement that never
goes beyond the limit Of good taste
and pleasant singing voice and you
have all the qualities that make for
success in musical comedy. If heaven
and the managers only give him a fair
chance, here is the Raymond Hitch
cock or Jimmy Powers of a few years
hence. It will will be interesting to
watch his progress"
The caberet scene in Little Miss
Mix-Up' affords an excellent oppor-
tunity for interpretations of all the
very latest hits in the musical line and
the Galvins have taken advantage of
this to the extent of about 16 musical
hits including an exceptionally clever
dancing act and a quartette.

QUIZ into T0RTURES
Of RUBBER WORKERS
United States Government Sends
Investigators to Unearth
Wrongs on Amazon.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-The state
department has sent a. representative
up the Amazon river country to Sc
cure definite, information relative to
the native rubber gatherers in Peru.
Representa- tions to the department
are to the effect that repetition of
the horrors of the Congo rubber in
dustry are being perpetrated in the
Amazon country. Natives are forced
by torture and mutilations to collect
a maximum quantity of rubber each
day. . d.
Sir Roger Easement, consul general
of Great Britain, makes a most start
ling report concerning the situation,
and in it he says: The rubber indus
try in the forests Of the Amazon is
an appalling revelation Of crime, lust
and cruelty. The vilest tortures
which could be conceived by the most
depraved mind have been practiced
upon the wretched slaves who gather
rubber. Civilization stands self-con-
demned if it permits these conditions
to exist-even in darkest South Africa.
Failing joint action by the powers,
some country must take action alone.
If Germany in her desire for colonial
expansion should turn her eyes in this
direction. who of those who stand
aside dare say her nay? Probably it
is this last expression by the consul
general which has influenced our
state department to make an inves-
tigation before European countries in
terVene. e

LABOR MEMBER RESIGNS:
CANDIDATE FOR SENATE

JERSEY CITY, N. j., Sept. 26.-
Congressman William Hughes Of Pat
erson, N. j., has forwarded to Gov
ernor Wilson his resignation as
member Of congress of the Sixth New
Jersey district, and it will take effect
tomorrow.
Mr.. Hughes is now candidate for
the Democratic nomination for United

He was also a leader in the labor
group in congress and author of the
S-hour bill adopted by the Sixty-sec-
ond congress, and signed by the presi-
dent.
The fact that Mr.. Hughes will not
occupy seat in the house of repre-
senta tives is a distinct loss to the la
: Dor movement, and is to be regretted,
as his services have been exceedingly
valuable to labor throughout the en-
tire country.

.PENNSYl lVAN|A ROAD
FIGHTS TELECRAPHERS
Refuses to Permit Mediators Un-
der Erdman Law to Set
tie Trouble.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 26.-In q
letter addressed to Judge Martin A.
Knapp, Of the United States Com
merce court and Charles p. Neill.
United States Commissioner of La
Dor, recently made public. General
Manager S. c. Long of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad placed the company
on record as against treating with
a. committee from the Order Of Rail-
road .Telegraphers in the matter Ct
wage adjustments.
The letter denied the existence Of
any situation which would justify thu,
acceptance Of the offices of the fed
eral offiials named as medfators, as
requested by the Order of Railroad
Telegraphers seeking arbitration un-
der the Erdman act.
The company states 1t is already
treating with one organization of tele-
graphers. The Pennsylvania railroad
Is the sponsor for an alleged organ
1zat1on of telegraphers which belongs
to the company in fee simple.
This organization was founded, of
course, in order to fight the legiti-
mate organization Of the Order Of
Railroad Telegraphers, the company
organization being nothing more or
less than paper organization.
Therefore. the railroad company
takes the position that in view of
the fact that the company is on tho
point Of giving satisfactory reply to
committee representing the en-
ployes of the elegraph department
the company declines to- treat with
two committees representing the same
class of employees
The Order of Railroad Telegraph-
ers have not as yet taken any definite
action in the matter.

RAILWAY MAIL men
GET SALARY RAISE
Great Army Of Postal Clerks to
Enjoy Big Increase This.
Week.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-Promo-
tion for $4,000 railway postal clerks
on October 1, so it is reported, will
be provided in orders to be. issued by
the postmaster general.
In the railway mail service there
are 1900 clerks and a majority of
those not promoted on October 1 will
receive more pay before the end Of
the current fiscal year. More than
100000 will be expended in making
the promotions.
A reorganization of the railway mail
service and increased pay for postal
clerks were authorized in the recently
enacted postoffice appropriation bill.
The new law provides for three
classes Of railway postal lines with
their transfer and terminal offices.
The compensation will be higher for
lines on which work is heaviest, be-
ginning with 5000 a year.
All clerks who render faithful and
efficient service will receive annual
raises Of 800 until they reach the
maximum of the successive annual
grades for which they may be pro-
noted for specially meritorious serv-
ice until their pay reaches $1,000 a
year.
Chief clerks in the railway mail
service receive salaries of $4,000.
Hitherto it has been the custom to
promote railway clerks only when
vacancies occurred from death, va
cancy, or removal. Hereafter railway
clerks will have assurance Of annual
promotion, SO long as they faithfully
discharge their duties.
This is the method applied salts
factorily for several years in adjusting
the compensation of postoffice clerks
and city letter carriers, but the range
of salaries for railway clerks will be
higher because of the hazardous char
acter of their work.
