ELLswoRTH-MADE SHOES.
Reorganization of Mutual shoemak-
ers' Co.-More Capital Needed.

ers' Co.-More Capital Needed.
A special meeting for the purpose of re-
organizing the Ellsworth Mutual Shoe
makers Co., was held at the factory last
evening. There was a good representa-
Jion of tockholders present.
Capt. Joseph NJ. Higgins, DIR. George s.
Hagerthy and Percy B. Russell were
elected directors. Capt. Higgins was
elected president of the board of directors,
Mr.. Russell treasurer, and DIR. Hagerthy
auditor.
A general discussion OF the situation
followed. Harry E. Vose, of the Century
Boot Shop, spoke of the excellent quality
OF the shoe made by Mr.. Russell, and the
commendation given it by travelling sales
men and shoe experts. 1t was a shoe, he
said, which sold on its merits, thus cut
ting out the large expense of statesmen to
push it. He declared that one of these
shoes, thrown down among a crowd of
shoe buyers at the United States hotel in
Boston, would be identified at once by
them as Russell shoe.
Mr.. Russell spoke of conditions in the
factory. He had large number of orders
on hand, and had, in fact, been compelled
to turn down two large orders because he
was unable to handle them. The great
need was an additional working capital of,
say, 5000, With this he could at once
increase the force employed at the factory,
and greatly increase the output without a
proportional increase in expenses.
Several stockholders present at the
meeting, who had before taken but little
interest in the factory, subscribing
to stock merely for the purpose of helping
local industry, became enthusiastic
after hearing the shoes discussed and
looking over the factory.

HAVE TO LEARN YET.

A locomotive engineer in England
got drunk while off duty and was
dismissed or lowered in rank as a
punishment. He was a member of
the brotherhood, and appealed to
the union to be reinstated in his
position on the ground that he was
not drunk while on duty. The Of
ficials of the road took the view that
drunkenness at any time disquali-
fed man for as important and exact
ing duty as operating a locomotive,
and refused the demand. A strike
was ordered and it spread until about
eight thousand men were sustaining
the contention in behalf of the man
who got drunk Business was at a
standstill the public could get no
service and the losses to the pub
lie, to the road and to the striking
employees ran up into stupendous
sums, and all for the doubtful NOR
al principle of letting a man do as
he wishes when it does not directly
affect those depending upon him.
The long lists of wrecks charge
able to drunken engineers or to the
dulled senses following spree have
not yet taught all men the lesson.

In congress Berger fathered more
freak bills than any man in history;
such fanciful legislation as abrogat-
ing the veto power of the president
curtailment of the judicial power OF
the supreme court, withdrawal of the
troops on the Mexican border and
other like measures being advocated
by him. The people of his district
in Wisconsin sent him there as their
representative, but he failed to rep
resent them, and was naturally de-
feated.
Makes Deal In Politics.
Bergers deal made with Governor
McGovern by which Socialist votes
for McGovern were to be traded for
support of Berger for reelection, also
helped to accomplish his retirement
from public life.
On the subject of woman suffrage
the Socialists have also proved their
failure to live up to what they prom
Use. In the late campaign the Demo-
cratic, Republican and the Progress
i've parties advocated the adoption of
the woman suffrage amendment in
Wisconsin, as did the Socialists, but
in the election in Milwaukee county,
the Socialist stronghold, the amend
ment receiver fewer votes than did
either the Socialists candidate for
president or for governor. This
shows conclusively that the Socialists
advocacy of woman suffrage is but
half hearted.
Failure of the Scheme.
On the whole the experiment in
| Wisconsin has been an utter failure
and has been characterized by the
grossest extravaganza and incompe-
tence on the part of the Socialists
AS a matter of fact the whole sit
uation can be summed up in the char
acterization applied to the Socialists
in Milwaukee-the "Blunder blund. y

NEW YEARS PARTY

Mr.. and Mrs. John G. Brown open
ed their beautiful home on Wednes-
day evening for social event that
was of more than ordinary beauty
and pleasure.
Printed announcements were is
sued indicating in addition to the
host and hostess, that Mrs. L. r.
Aldrich, Mrs. Blanch Eldridge, Mrs.
w. E. Patrie, Mrs. ]. H. Early, Mrs.
Chas. Bergman, Jr., and Mrs. Will
bur Craig would receive under the
same hospitable roof, and friends
were to call at any time during the
evening until midnight.
Announcement that the Brown man
sion was opened for a social function
was sufficient assurance that a
pleasant event was in store, and that
it would not be Of the stiff and for-
NAL kind. AS the guests arrived on
the porch a beautiful Indian maid
en-, Miss Mary Sandy, attired in a
costume of the most exquisite beauty
perhaps the most complete Indian
costume extant, showed them in and
directed them to the stairway lead
ing to the dressing rooms.
As the guests returned from the
dressing rooms they were met by
DR.. w. E. Patrie who announced
them. Passing on to the Sun Room
they were served with punch by
Misses Lulu Curtis and Agnes Hart,
Mrs. ]. H. Early presided over the
coffee urn in the dining room, and
the guests helped themselves to
sandwiches, pickles and olives and
in the Den Mr.. Early served egg nog.
The guests tarried longest in the
big living room where there was mus
ic and chatting and stories and Jokes.
Everybody was so perfectly at home
and SO free to spring all the fun that
occurred to them. the time flew by in
a stream of pleasure. Music was fur
nished by Mrs. Austin, the Misses
Anna and Minnie Kiefer, Miss Cassie
Wright, and Mr.. M. N. Austin, Mrs.
X. P. Brown presented one Of match
less readings, impersonating the
brides first tea party.
At some time after eleven, some
body proposed few dances and
when guest suggested that the
floors were too elegant to be danced
on, Mrs. Brown put them all at ease
by saying, Indeed they are not.
This is home, to be used as home,
and when our floors become too good
to be used for the pleasure and in
nocent enjoyment Of our friends we
will take them up and lay something
we can use." So the dancing pro-
ceeded for a half-hour or more, ad-
ding to the merriment and exhuber-
ance of the occasion.
At little after midnight the hap
py company dispersed, feeling CRATE
full that such beautiful home had
been opened for their enjoyment.

WATCHES THE CLOUDS.

One New Workers. Easy. and WeIl
Paid, but Important, Job.
There is one man in New York who
would seem to hold an easy and unique
job. From JAM to Dec. 81 be puts in
his whole time watching for clouds
from the top Of one of the tallest sky
scrapers. He does nothing else. Is we'll
paid If he performs his duty vigilantly
and has no one to boss or hustle him
around-except the clouds. For tools
he works with telescope, and he can
smoke. read poetry or do what he
pleases, provided he keeps his weather
eye keenly peeled for the first sign of
a storm cloud sweeping down the Hud-
son. On that rests his whole job, for
should thunderstorm catch him nap
ping it would mean serious strain on
the leading electric light and power
company
In no other city but New York do
conditions make for such contingent
cy Owing to the compact construction
Of the huge blocks Of downtown sky
scrapers an enormous amount Of cleo
trio light is suddenly demanded when
ever the sky becomes darkened. Thou
sands Of bulbs are simultaneously
switched on. At nightfall this need
for light is easily calculated. but no
certain provision can be made against
the sudden overshadow of a storm
cloud other than by statoning a look
out man on the top of skyscraper.
Consequently when he sees cloud
sweeping down the Hudson or advanc-
ing from any other direction it is his
business to watch it's approach care
fully.
Therein he must use bit Of judy
ment. If it is likely to sweep clear Of
the city he need not bother about it.
But should he reckon it will pass over
Manhattan it is his business to tele-
phone the chief power station a warn
ing that storm cloud is coming. At
once red light CLOVIS in the engine
room, and the stokers hustle to shovel
coal into the furnaces. Presently the
huge generators revOlve at greater
speed to supply the emergency demand
for electricity.a Thus when the thou
sands of lights are switched on down.
town few are likely to guess how the
sudden call for light has been met.
Meanwhile the cloud watcher is in
no fear that a mechanical device will
deprive hi m of his job, for the weather
instrument that can record just the d.
rection a cloud will take in sweeping
on toward Manhattan is yet in the dim
future Of invention.-New York Trib-
une.

Canine Etiquette.

In their relations one with another
dogs have keen sense of etiquette.
Unless they are on very intimate terms
they take great pains never to brush
against or even touch one another
For one dog to step over another is a
dangerous breach Of etiquette unless
they are special friends. 1t is no un-
common thing for two dogs to belong
to the same person and live in the
same house and yet never take the
slightest notice of each other. We
have spaniel SO dignited that he will
never permit another member of the
dog family to pillow his head upon
him, but with the egotism Of true
aristocrat he does not hesitate to make
use of the other dogs for that purpose.
