MAYOR TAKES A HAND IN THE
BRlCKMAKERS' STRIKE

Mayor Harrison took hand in the
brickmakers' strike yesterday and
ruled in favor of the men.
Harrison was drawn into it as a
result of a new hitch in the peace
negotiations over a disputed clause.
This clause, inserted by the union,
was to be a protection against indis-
eliminate discharging of men by the
bosses, without first submitting their
kick against the men fired to the
union.
The representatives Of the bosses
agreed to stand by the mayors ruling
providing the wording Of the clause
was changed. The union consented
to the change Peace agreements
will probably be signed Monday
morning and the men will return to
work.

FIRST MILITANTs ON RECORD
Amazons Undoubtedly Were the orl.
sInal Fighters Of Their Sex In
Warllke Bands.

The Amazons we're tabled tribes or
warlike communities of women in
Scythia, Asia and Africa. They were
said to be descendants of Scythians OF
Cappadocia. where their husbands,
having made incursions. were all slain
in ambuscades. The women formed a
feminine state. declaring matrimony a
shameful servitude. They were said
to have been conquered by Theseus;
about 1881 B. G. According to Homer
they were allies Of the Trojans in the
siege of Troy. where their queen, Pen;
thesilia, was slain by Achilles. Theseua
and Hyppolyta, queen Of the Amazonsj

ALWAYS A SIGN OF DEATH
Flag at "Half-staff" SURE indication
That the Dread Visitor Has
Been There.

Nearly every one speaks Of q nag,
when being flown at a distance from
the top Of the pole, as at "halt.mast."
This is not the correct expression.
Such flags are at "%half.staff" because
they are flown in this manner whether
on land or sea from the flag stan.
To see a nag at half-statf means
death. 1t may mean, on an incoming
ship, that one Of the passengers or
crew died at sea. Many a little nsh.
ing vessel comes into Gloucester and
T wharf in Boston every season with
a flag at half-staff, and this means
n of the fishermen, or more. has met
death, generally being swept over.
board.
This custom Of flying fage at half.
staff originated first as a token Of de-
feat. That Is, when an army was de-
feated, its flag wis lowered down the
STAFF to give room for the victorious
army to place its flag above that of
the defeated army.
From this the custom grew into hy.

day, when a man Of prominence dies,
regardless Of whether he was sailor,
soldier, or civilian, the flags are hung
at half-stat. Whereas, in the olden
days, when the custom started. the up.

victor could put his flag there. now it
seems that death is the victor, and 30
the space is left. 1t Is, of course. a
mark OF respect to the dead person to
have flags at half.staff for him.

LESSON IN VIRTUE.

The shop girl may not have a COM
Portable home, where, in safety, she
might meet and be properly intro

may not move under the so-called

Many a carefully nurtured child,
protected in her home, could learn
much for her safety and happiness
from the hundreds Of store girls that

courtesy and decency, maintaining
their good names under the most
