workers have won two important
strikes in this city. At the Brad
ford mills, several hundred of these
workers were involved. Among
the concessions secured was The re-
moval of the superintendent who,

and who was the principal cause of
the strike. Ali strikers have re-
turned to work and new superin-
tendent has been installed. The
strike of carpet weavers at the c.
M. Masland & Sons mills has been
settled. The workers have Sc
cured 10 per cent wage increase,

promise that meme of the strikers

Iron MoIders Strike.

St. PAUL, Mimi, June 25.-The
village of Shakopee, neat here, is
attracting state-w wide attention be-
cause of an iron molders' strike
against the Minnesota Stove com
pany, which has refused to live up
to agreements made with these
workers. The company discharged
the chairman of the grievance COM
mittee and forwarded this unique
letter to the unionist in defense of
its action: eve understand you
are getting ready to market stove
which will be in competition with
us, and we therefore do not see
how we can consistently continue
you in our employ. We regret
losing your services but under the
circumstances do not see how we
can do otherwise. "
The union denied the charge and
offered to submit evidence to this
effect, but the company answered.
He is discharged and that settles
it.

pany's figures. You will remem-
Der how you refused to have the
private books of the company ex-
smined in the last arbitration, and
rather than expose this record Of
real profits you admitted to the ar
bitration board the company's f.
nancial ability to a wage increase.
In answer TO the company's
statement that questions that can
not be agreed upon "shall be sub
mitted to arbitration in the usual
way" the unionists say:
From the experience we have
had with your usual way of sett-
ling questions of this kind, either
In the state legislature or the city
council, we can assure ysu that we
want no repetition, and the usual
way you propose will not be ac-
cepted."

Junior Contests Favored by
Governor Willis at Piqua.

Governor Willis was principal
speaker at the Corn Boys Reunion
Piqua, Ohio Saturday, June Il.
Addressing a large crowd he came
out strongly in favor of the Junier
Contest work as promoted by the
Agricultural Commission. He de-
clared that any rumors TO the effect
that he was opposed to this work
were absolutely false. That he
favored and encouraged same be-
fore he was Governor and that he
still urgee and encouraged them.
When he was Congressman he had
himself offered and paid the ex-
peEse of the boy who had grown
the most corn on one acre is his

tive part in the state spelling con-
test which was one of a series of

to win victory at some game
worth while.

Compensation Not Limited !.

Hartford, Conn, June Is The
supreme court of this state has
ruled that the jurisdiction of the
Connecticut workmen's compensa-
tion act is not limited to Conneti-
cut even when the contract be-
tween employer and empleye is en-
tered into within the state.
The ruling was in the Case of the
wives of two employees of the
Thames Towboat company who
lost their lives when a tug foun-
dered off the New Jersey coast The
company appealed from the COM
pensation commissions awards,
claiming that as the accident hap
pened outside the state the COM
pensation act has no jurisdiction.
The supreme court ruled that under
the conditions the law is effective.

Whom first we love we seldom wed,
Time rules US all, and life, indeed,
is not
The thing we planned it out ere hope

And then, we women cannot choose
our lot,
Some are too cold at times, and some
too gay and light;
Some griefs sink deep and some are
hard to bear,
Who knows the past and who can
Judge us right
It is wonderful how this summer
madness gets in the head of the aver
age human being and makes him talk,
think and act like another person,
little comedies one comes across, at
the country hotels, and homes where
there are bevies of girls, as well as at
the seaside. Young men, taking va
cations, and others who have saved a
snug little sum to have good time
on, enjoy the advantage of long pc
Rod of leisure before them, in the
summer gayety, which they employ,
by making themselves absolutely in
dispensable to the young women. It
is hard to pick and choose the pref
test girls when each whom they run
across is more attractive than the
other. The gilded youth, who changes
his costume half a dozen times q
day, and with scarf-pin of diamond
f1aunts by them with adrniring
chances, receives cold looks, instead
of encouragement, from those to
whom he has reckoned he would have

the hearts of the merry whirlers at
summer frolics. One of the smart

STAR OF THE
PHUN-MAKERS.

1t was lady who is prominent
ly home-maker, who told me about
it. She is an ardent suffragist, too,
and she has one feminine foible which
she shares with a great many other
suffragists and non suffragists-s
does not, will not, ever, ever, tell her
age.
The other morning the census TAX
er called on her But she may as
well tell her own story: "He was a
nice looking young man." she said,
"and very polite, but the pest insisted
on knowing how old I was. I init
mated, very firmly, that he would
never-wild horses, would never, pre-
vail on me to tell him. But the more
I insisted / wouldn't, the more he
contended that / must. So at last
said: You needn't insist, for / shall
never let you know. Just put me
down as % plus, and let it go at that.
The polite young man scratched his
head thoughtfully- Lady" he
said, 81 sure would thank you If you'd
tell me your age. You see, we're try
ing to get all we can on this here list,
so that if we get enough, maybe we'll
be entitled to another congressman.
Now" the lady concluded, 1--WE
been wondering ever since what that
young man meant. What do you
think he meant?"
Il don't know, I'm sure" / said,
maybe he was from a suffrage Sec
ton and thought the women had the
votes as they do now, in civilized
states, maybe he didn't think you
were really of age"

THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

Chisel in hand stood a sculptor boy,
With his marble block before him,
And his face lit up with a smile of
Joy
AS an angel dream passed Ger him.
He carved that dream on that shape
less stone
With many sharp incision;
With Heavens own light the sculp-
ture shone-
He had caught that angel vision,
Sculptors. of life are we, as we stand
With our souls uncarved before us,
Waiting the hour when at Gods COM
mand
Our life dream shall pass Ger us;
II we carve it then on the yielding
stone
With many sharp incision,
It's Heavenly beauty shall be our own
Our lives the angel vision.
