vided with switches which turn cars
around and make the passengers ride

ONE MAN DRILLS
 FAST REPLACING OLDER MACHINES
Lake Country Strike Issue Be- comes Popular As Weight Of Machines Is LeSSened-JaCk- hammer In Universal Use

The issue which was talked about generally through the Great Lake strike of last year regarded the change from the heavy two-man drilling ma chine to the lighter one-man machine The complain generally was made on the weight of the one-man machine.
 More and more of the one-man ma chimes are being introduced in the mines now and thew are becoming lighter with each change. Tn fact the newest type. the so-called jackham. mer. is so light that the possibility of complaint On the ground of weight is ridiculous And the llghtest pack hammers are making wonderful rec ords in ground breaking.
 Mohawk is using the smaller drills quite generally for opening work and is achieving satiscaftory results.

WORTH WHILE FOLK
FROM HOD CARRIER TO PREACHER

TT is perhaps not generally known that the
writer of many touching and beautiful
hymns that have found their way into vari-
Gus hymnals, and are sung by Christian
congregations wherever the English Ian
guage is in use is a modest, unassertive col
ored clergyman, the Rev. Charles Albert
Tindley.
Negro life in America centers in the
church. Their ministers are for the most
part the races real leaders, and sometimes
its heroes. Dr. Tindley is one of the most
loved man in his race. He is veritable
giant, SIX feet two, and weighing two hun
dred and thirty pounds, rugged, honest,
humble, compassionate. There is about him
simplicity and dignity of soul that sug-
gests the thought of "a Lincoln in ebony"
as the white friends of Tindley have gen
erously designated him; not unfit tribute
to the spirit OF the martyred President
whose proclamation made possible the en-
deavors of Tindey, and of every colored
American.
Dr. Tindley belongs to that part of the
Methodist Episcopal Church composed of
colored people who never withdrew from
that body, and is therefore under the super
vision of white Bishops. He is pastor of the
largest colored Methodist congregation in
the world, the Calvary Church at Broad
and Fitzwater-sts., Philadelphia 1t has
more than three thousand communicates.
He has the largest Sunday school in Method
isn,-nore than thirty-six hundred. He is
popular lecturer and preacher in white
churches and universities, as well as among
his own people, and has just returned from
trip to Europe, the expenses of which were
met by white and colored friends in Phila-
delphia. Yet, not many years ago, he was
an unlettered hod carrier in Philadelphia,
and sexton of the same church of which he
is now pastor. The first time he attended
church in that city he was SO uncouth in
Evening star., 1914-05-03

appearance that he was laughed at by
members of his own race until he wept. His
early life had been one of hardship and
pathos, such as few even of his own race
could understand
HE was born in Maryland, July Z, 1859.
His parents were free, and he was never
a slave; though his lot was little if at all
better. He says of himself
"I never saw book until l was seventeen
years old. My mother died when l was a
little over two. My father was good man;
but very poor and unlearned. He was un-
able to keep me in school, or to keep me in
his little home Ii therefore became my lot
to be hired out wherever Father could place

HonStrom 1t seems only reasonable that
lanes should be right at home stunning.
Farther over toward the East Side is mer-
chant appealing by the name of Lukacher.
Doubtless, we reflect, he would sell us good
merchandise, and SO would his clerks as soon
as Lukacher. Gazing on the sign Brigham,
Graham & Capers," one wonders at the
large amount of ham to the allotment of
capers. A puzzling sign, in its way, is that
of E. A. Crostic." And with memories of
"Dwork still clinging to our consciousness,
with its profane suggestion, we are brought
up all standing by the elaculatory lnscr1p-
ton, "a. W. Diem" In the meantime we
take occasion to reflect that presumably the
clerks of cash" the grocer, will be pleased
to sell bill of goods for cash.
OF signs wherein the punishment fits the
crime there are many: Thomas Beers IS
in the liquor business; a barber lays claim to
the cognomen "a. Shafer"; the ranks of the
butchers give us Haug, Katz, . Ochs, .
sporting cafe are Clipper & kuttner );
you realize, when you see the sign Hockey
Undertaken" that there is one craftsman
you can't play hockey with. And to wind
up these examples of fitness with peculiarly
intricate one we have only to refer to the
Philadelphia sign that calls the attention
of the public to Doctor LAWYER, Dentist. "
SOME signs are perverse, and when read
- backward give most astonishing results.
Such one is in Providence land, Providence
permitting, will probably stay therel, where
of the legend. 'N1oss & Krieger," readily
takes on an unlovcly appearance as cross and
meagcr. In Providence too is that triumph
of Chinese slyness, "Wah Shung, Laundry
man" We did not see where the wash hung;
but were strongly attracted by the idea that
the Celestial might occasionally leave his
business for call at the barroom nearby,
leaving a card on his door to inform the casu-
al passerby that Wah Shung out; too dly''
Briefly pausing to notice that "Feaster >
has three restaurants in New York, and that
the signs "a. Glazer, Glazing" and .
Glazer, Glazier,' are only three doors apart
in Brooklyn, we will leave the subject. But
we hesitate to do so without referring to the
proposition, made some little time since, for
the formation of Society of Earnest Stu
dents in Nomenclature, to be devoted to OBJ
serving and recording Signs and Nomens, SO
to speak; membership to be open to all ex-
cept those who 'die and make no Sign all

signs to be allowed, the secretary to have a
Sine-cure, and the clubs motto to be Sine

densation of any that have yet been seen;
for its owner AYERS that he can spell his
name Justin R. Sypher."
The opticians of the Quaker City furnish
their quota, thereby benefiting the eyesight
of the explorer There is, for instance, Ben
der & Off, which gives rise to many and va
rious musings. If one should wish to ask
Mr.. OFF to take drink (not necessarily to go
on bender, of course), should he say Come
on or would it SAVIOR of the sweet flower of
courtesy to say Come OFF," And in vaca-
ton time if Bender is off and Off is on, or if
Bender is always off and Off is off, off and on,
where does the business of the firm get off ?
One would like to enter into a frank dis
cussion Of this most vexing question; but
here at the corner is real estate sign that
says Prank B. Off, and will take no
denial.
In the same neighborhood wall & Ochs y
are doing prosperous business in optical
lines, and cne says hopefully, II trust that
their customers become neither Wall-eved
nor Ochs-eyed." Farther up town a sign
points out the business headquarters of
Mrs. ]. Hurwitz.' And again the mighty
question riz, Suppose the lady has lost her
husband, thereby losing Hurwitz, is she
therefore demented? If he is an invalid,
must Hurwitz be feeble? And as evidence
CtlaC CneTe IS lTulH III our ld1llllld1 pIONcIDS,
a sign on Ninth-st., "Murrow,' gives elo-
quent testimony to the truth Of the maxim
that a Worrum will turn; fact that is
still further attested in New York, where a
machinist, possessing several lathes, answers
to the name of "a. Wurm."
NEW YORK itself offers many rare and
! valuable contributions to the gallery,
not the least valuable being Val. Ubl.' The
sign of Schoverling, DAILY & Gales sug-
gested to the wittiest woman in America the
idea that it might be used as motto for the
Department Of Street Cleaning. "Dwork =
with a little dash interjected- is suggestive,
and SO, in a different way, is Roche, Croll
& Co" In the case of " Present & Co., we
are once more in quandary; for we fall to
wondering if when Present is absent whoever
is left is Present, and also if the Company is
among those present, with various other pre-
sentiments of a like caliber. Nor is the case
much improved when we find ourselves at
the portals of Double &, Co.; for if we
have important business within. it is only
too evident that we must make out to see

we naturally expect that, if Keys would,

for the great Office of senator Post
master Burleson heartily endorses Mr..
Prouty as one of the Proeressives of
the country. If Mr. Prouty is good
enough for the Progressives and Pro

enough for Democrats who devoutly
pray that they may see speedy END
