BOAT TRIPS

Judging by the applications for
dates the Island Queen and Prin-
cess steamer excursion service is
beginning to become almost a ma
t1onal feature for not only Cincln-
natl organizations but fraternities
ard organizations i'll other states
are applying for trips. No other
Cincinnati pleasure giving compa-
ny has ever extended its fame for
service SO far. People at distant
points, are also interested in the
Sunday trips provided by the two
big boats. In the big crowds that
take the Queen each Sunday on the
trips to Lawrenceburg and Aurora
and the Princes to New Richmond
can be seen visitors from distant
cities. The Queen leaves the
Broadway wharf each Sunday at
$3.50 a. m. and $3.50 p. m. and the
Princess at 10: a. m. and 2:30 p. N.
The moonlight voyage is at 8
o'clock each Sunday evening.
A special week for vacaticnists
and visitors, to or from Louisville
has been arranged for the month
of May, which it is figured will &C
comodate the greatest number of
people.

Columbus, Ohio, April, g.
Warden Thomas of the state peni-

dietary committee not to favor the
Cromley bill, which repeals the in
determinate sentence law. He said
the act had done wonders in i'm

institution of the world, as an ar
gument against repeal. The inde-

Strange Picture.

There is displayed in the show
widow of Glenn Pater, the shoe
man, at 421 South Second street, a
photograph taken in a cemetery in
Covington, KY, called Natures S
Mystic Apparition of Christ, and
we'll may it be called such. Hun
dreds stop daily to see this wonder
full picture.
The picture was taken at Christ
mrs time, 1914, by Vim. c. Wied-
ling, an amateur photographer.
At the urgent request of his lit lie
daughter he took a snap" of
what appeared to be only an at
tractive snow scene, but the camera
caught what the eye did not see
a picture which is universally pro
nounced likeness of Christ.
Notice the perfection of every
detail of the form, the halo, the
crown Of thorns and the sad ex-
preston of the uptured face. This
picture is produced just as it comes
from the camera without retouch-
ing or by use of an artificial means
to obtain this remarkable result.
The picture has been copyrighted
by Mr.. Welding, who resides at
1886 Holman avenue, Covington,
Ky.

Unjust Conditions In The
Open Shop.
BY VIM. Holman, Middletown Ohio

Much has been said of the unfair
conditions existing today in the
open shops. Here is another bril-
liant example. There is a manu-
featuring plant located in the city
of Ft. Wayne, Ind, known as the
Ft. Wayne, Electric Light Works
which lately has installed a new
system whereby every man aid
women employed there, must pass
through a physical examination
aud if not found in the best condi-
ton physically, will be out of
Job; another new rule is that any
one caught lunching during work
ing hours, will be given furlough
of one week; still another one is
that any employe coming late il
the morning, will be sent home for
the day, and another thing if any
body employed there spoils piece
of work, he CT she will be COM
PEELED to pay for it and lastly, if
any wage-slave refuses to be tyran-
nized over in such a manner, be
or she can at once look for another
job
Nee, pleasant conditions to work
Under, now isn't it. Suppose you
had been employed there, say for
20 years or more, and after giving
your best years for the sake of a
mere livelihood, at the same time
helping to fill the Golfers of your
employers you'd d then be forced to
undergo physical examination
and TO your dismay, were informed
by the physician that you were not
in the physical condition you had
been when first employed and CON
sequently would have to resign
your position, what would you
think Of such a system? Then in
trying to obtain another place of
employment, what recommends
tion could you furnish? Wonld
you say that you had been dis
charged because of physical deteri-
oration3 No, you would not, or
slim chances of your getting an
other job while thousands upon
thousands of apparently healthy
men and women are walking the
streets today looking for an oppor.
tunity to sell their labor power for
almost any sum.
Now all this could be avoided if
this were strictly Union Shop.
What the men and women employ
ed there should do, is to get to-
gether at once and organize them
selves into Trades Unions. and
when once the entire solidarity of
the employees of this plant is as
sured, no such unjust conditions
can prevail. In union there is
strength; workers of the world,
UNITE.

Do the work of two devils in He'll
for my health.
I'll rob little children of bread and
their homes,
Steal swill from blind pigs and rob
dogs of their bones" /"
1t was then in disgust the Devil
withdrew,
Went back into He'll where the
Birthstone burned blue.
He swore by his kingdom, the
flames and the heat,
This scum of the Earth had caused
his defeat.
He raved and he swore, tore the
hair from his head,
Went back to his Scum of the
Earth and he said.
Get out of my sight, before you
| grab,
You dirty, inhuman, contemplate

THE Republican party in the last
campaign promised organized labor
the Zone Day Rest In Seven Law"
and the "Women's Eight Hour
Law" This same party is trying
to unload on the working men and
women of the state, the Archer
bill. This bill is being opposed by
organized labor because it places
toe much power into the hands of
few men. 1 would be well for
the Republican party to pass the
two bills promised and make them
law. We do not want the Archer
bill passed

"No, thank you, kind Sir, I'm
happy to tell,
We don't want that mixture, not
even in He'll.
But, if you'll allow me, I'll see if
| car,
Suggest some use for it, on earth
made for man.
The Devil sat down, tried with both
might and main,
He pondered, he searched through
his Devilish brain,
To find use for this mixture, the
Lord so despised,
But no use for the stuff, could the
Devil devise.
So, he called his assistant, who in
turn rang bell,
And summoned in conference all
the Devils In He'll.
He explained how he'd promised,
some plan to suggest,
Some use for the mixture, and
Now for the Test"
I'll make a Chief Devil of one from
the bunch
Who'll suggest the best use, and
give me hunch,
So they planned and they worked
till their brains turned to lead,
And all of the Devils, except two
soon lay dead.
The Devil himself se,nen he saw
what he'd zine,
Crie1 / have it! l have it! I'll do
II by gum
I'll take this rotten mixture, more
devils I'll mould,
To help me in He'll, before it gets
cold"
So he moulded a thing that looked
some like a man,
When the other Imps saw it they
bolted and ran.
1t was devoid of all principle, man
hood and mirth,
A disgrace to the Maker and all
things on earth.
But the devil remembering the
promise he made,
Turned to this Scum of the earth
and he said,
''Ive long been in need of one
such. Now true,
You stick to me and I'll stick to
you.
Your duties, my boy, you'll find
there on the wall,
Be prompt in your work and cour-
teous to all.
As to wages my boy, Oh I'll pay
you well,
Eight hours shall you labor with
me here in Hell.
This Scum of the Earth, then
turned to its Dad,
And said in voice that was broken
and sad.
"I'll do anything TO please you,
I'll e'een walk a mile,
Through the hottest of He'll, for a
glimpse of your smile.
But oh Father of Fathers I must
ask something more,
I'd do anything for you, but, oh,
I adhor
Short hours and good wages, light
and sunshine,
Give me long hours and filth and
darkness for mine.
I'll take ignorance and sickness in
place of great wealth,
