Way. Of the Factory Class.
From the Atlantic Magazine.

The psychology of the working class
is different from that Of the other
classes. The prevailing tone is apathy.
There is no d%iHcontent OF envy of the
we'll to do, but neither is there tina
restless eagerness to better their po-
sition, and confidence in their ultimate
prosperity. which the American spirit
ls supposed to insttl into q man. Men
in the trades seem to have this spirit,
out it il noticeably absent from the
factory class. Even the immigrants
seem quickly to lose that flush OF hope
and ambition with which they arrive in
this country. The factory routine seems
70 get into their very souls. 30 that
their whole life settles down to a mon
otonous drudgery without a look for
ward or backward. They are chiefly
concerned in holding their jobs. and
escaping the horrors OF unemployment

which resulted in a bad fracture of both
bones of the lower par, of his right leg.
Mr.. Hooey and several others from
Langdon made up a party going to
Wales, that evening to take in the
dance given on the occasion of the open
ing of the new opera house. They had
just reached their destination when
Hooey in the act of alighting, the first
to leave the conveyance slipped and as
he fell the wheels passed over his right
leg, breaking both bones below the
knee. He was helped to the hotel and
medical aid sought. Or. Backus set the
fracture, placed the limb in a plaster
cast and the patient was able to be
brought to his home in this city on the

recovery though it will necessarily be
some time before he is able to be around
again.
