Chicago Federation of Labor voted to

From his cell in the Clinton county

The newspapers record only part
of the CHASTITY tragedies of the social
drama-Poverty. Yet enough is
printed to make one stagger in the
presence of the horrors pictured.
Today we are told that one hum
dred and fifty thousand men in nli-
nois are roaming the streets seeking
a chance to honestly earn their bread.
They are weary, and cold, and hun
cry, and homeless. We know the
story of their crying souls. We are
one of them. We have known the
wandering search for work. Fear of
enforced tdleness is indelibly written
in the memory of the toiler. He
knows the toll exacted-the toll in
pain.
If this is gray study of the facts,
in what sadder color can we picture
the sufferings of the women and chill
dren who share and bear the burdens
of poverty. Child life is being crush
ed and destroyed. Song is banished
from the home. In the gaslghted

When Person passed him Musser
sprang on him and bore him to the
ground. Person is about five feet
six inches tall and weighs 100 pounds.
Musser was over six feet tall and
weighed over 200 pounds.
Person was beaten and choked into
a dazed condition while some of
Musser's fellow strikebreakers stood
above them and urged their chief on.
MUsser paused for moment, pos
sibly to gain his second wind. Per-
son dragged himself to his feet, and
through the blood that filled his eyes
he saw Musser make another rush
toward him. Person staggered back
a foot or SO, pulled his revolver and
fired at his assailant, whom he be-
ieved intended to kill him.
Musser's friends surrounded Per-
son and he was dragged to Jail. There
he was refused a physician by the
sheriff whose son is a strikebreaker
for the l. c..
He also asked for photographer
so that a picture of the condition of
his face and body might be produced
in court as evidence. This was also
refused

the l. C. has made against Person.
He is at present under indictments on
seven counts by the federal grand |

The inspector, surprised by this IN

err with an interest rather augmented
than diminished by his holiness. The
smile with which he had uttered these
concluding words yet fingered on his
lips, lighting up features of mold too
suggestive OF command to be associ-
ated readily with guilt. That the i'm
