WORKMEN SETTLE
THEIR DISPUTES
Work is Resumed on the Fontenelle
Hotel and the United States
National Bank Building.
ALL ARE BACK ON THE JOBS
How the Difficulty il settled e. Not
Revealed, Although IL il said
the BrickIayers Were
Made Arbitrator.

The thirty plasterers who struck on the
F'ontenelle hotel job last Monday went
back to work at 10 o'clock yesterday.
Just how the difficulty was settled is not
known to the general contractors or sub
contractors.
1T was a difficulty between the tile
settlers and the plasterers as to which
should be privileged to do certain work.
said Charles Anderson of Anderson Bros.
contractors, who have the plastering job.
Now they have settled 1t some way
and are all back at work. 1 did not in
quire into the details of how they set
tied IL. only know that they are back
at work, and so long as they are all
working, that is the important thing TO
me"
BricLIayers ArbitratOrs.
II is known, however, that in general
way tho matter was a few days ago sub
mitted 10 the bricklayers' union for arbi-
tration. The question was whether the
plasterers or the tile settlers should spread
the coat of cement that-must be put on
the tile wall before the marble facing Is
set. The tile settlers declared the spread
ing of this cement was their work be-
cause 1t was a part of the task of set
ting the marble. The plasterers asserted
1t was their work because it was practic-
ally the same as plastering. The tile set
tiers came back with the argument that
II they should let the piasterers put on
this coat Of cement and then follow them
up With the marble, the cement would
be hard and dry before they could get
TO 1t. and thus the marble could not be
made to stick. They held this was un-
reasonable.
When tho matter came to the brick
layers for arbitration, they rather took
the view that the tile settlers side of the
contention and circulated papers getting
the views of the unions in other crafts
on the matter. The result was that a
large list of signatures was readily piled
up in favor of the tile settlers side of
the question.
Tho plasterers are back to work. and.
as the contractors agree, that is the vital
issue with the man who Is trying to
finish Job by given date or pay a
forfeit.

CORNWALL H0L LOW

March came in with a lively snow- storm, then a heavy rain, followed by more snow. Last week there was sev- eral warm spring-like days. The mer- cury went up above 50 degrees. It was by far the pleasantest weather in two mouths. After the recent cold wave it seemed almost like summer.
 A young man in neighboring city was going to his office one morning dur. ing the recent zero weather, and while passing the Old Mems club, which was in full session. he was accosted. "Cold ?" asked one of the gentlemen present, "why when was your age we never even bothered wearing overcoats." The young man remarked later that he sup. posed when the present generation of young men grow up they will claim that they went barefooted during the winter months; that is, if the quality of lying increases proportionately as time goes on.

Bedouin Thief Trackers.

curious profession among the Bed ouins is that of the thief trackers. Being without paddocks or stables and their animals always more or less at liberty, theft of stock would appear to be an easy and frequent matter. Each tribe, however. has it's little company of "trackers," and 1t would be either a bold or an ignorant man indeed who ventured to interfere with an Arabs live stock. There was one instance i'll which a camel stolen from camp near Ismailfa was, after weeks of la- bor. successfully tracked to the Sudan. where the beast was recaptured and summary vengeance wrecked upon the robbers.

Politics In France.

Americans generally. know as little about French politics as Frenchmen know about ours. Issues, methods and parties in the two countries. are radically different. In France parties are so many in number and so small in membership that they are usually designated as groups rather than as parties. It is always necessary to com bine the forces of three or more of them to constitute majority in the chamber of deputies, and that can be done only by giving each group rep resentation in the cabinet. The parlia- mentary system of France resembles that of Great Britain in this: When the chamber gives a vote adverse to the ministry, the ministry resigns. But that means only that new alliance is formed that includes groups other than those represented in the retiring min- istry. AS consequence 1t usually happens that some members of the de feated abinet are retained in the cab inet that succeeds it.-Youth's Con- panion. ..A,

Except that the tide is moving east instead of west. the movement has many parallels to the wonderful migration which won the west for America. There are. however, two strik- ing differences The first is that the pioneering is comparatively luxurious compared to the American movement while the natives instead of being swept aside are being absorbed by in termarriage with the settlers.
