textile MILL WORKERS
FACE GENERAL LOCKOUT
Trouble Over New Wage Law
Affects Upward of $4,000
Persons.

LAWRENCE, Mass, January 13.-Al-
though there was no repetition today of
the violent outbreaks which marked the
beginning yesterday of the strike of tex
tile operatives who object to a decrease
in their wages incident to the curtailment
by two hours of the working week under
the new fifty-four-hour law, mill agents
and owners tonight were considering the
idea of a general shutting down of he
affected mills until conditions have be-
come more nearly normal. Mayor Scan
Ian suggested this step late today. Such
a shutdown would affect eight or nine
mills, employing upward of 5000 per-
sons.
Counsels General Strike.
Joseph Etter, member of the executive
board Of the Industrial Workers of
America, who was sent from New York
by that organization to direct the strike,
addressed a mass meeting of operatives
this afternoon. He counseled the opera
tives against entering the mills against
which a strike had been ordered Monday
morning, and said that his immediate aim
was to have d general strike declared.
Compared with yesterdays violent
scenes. everything was quiet about the
mills today, except for two minor dis
turbances and work was carried on in
every mill. though the force of operatives
at most of them was depleted consider
ably. The Everett mills closed down in
definitely, however, tonight. About 400
operatives in all are on strike at the diff
ferent mills.

That One Thing Lacking.

Lady Augusta Gregory, the able and
ardent apostle of the modern Irish
movement, is fond of telling the fol-
lowing real Irish story:
1T was the wedding day OF Pat and
Bridget, and they were having a
church wedding. 1t was a grand af,
fair. Pat was dressed with patent
leather shoes, white vest and flaming
tie. Bridget shone attractirely in
many colors. The ceremony was over
and the happy pair walked down the
aisle, out into the street, where a
great crowd greeted them with delight
Once seated within the cab, Bridget
leaned over to Pat and said, ina loud
whisper, rOch. Pat, If We could only
have stood on the sidewalk and watch
ed ourselves pass, wouldn't it have
been hivin?'"

for school to be dismissed. The trou-

boys in a Misunderstanding over a
game. After hearing both sides OF
the question, she decided proper pun
ishment for the combatants, and told
them to remain in their seats after
the others had gone home. She re
membered something she wanted tc

Hot Weather Drink.

Philip Hale, one of Boston's latter
day philosophers, recommends barley
water as a more sensible drink for hot
weather than "ice-cold" blends of wa
tiers, sirups. acids, gulped at the mar
bic fountains. Mr.. Hale's recipe for
his favorite tipple is as follows:
For three pints OF water YOU will
require a teacupful and half Of well
washed pearl barley, four Jumps OF
sugar and the thin rind and juice OF
one lemon. Pour boiling water over
it, cover with saucer and let 1t stand
till cold; then strain again and AGAR
till clear. and pour into a Jug
