RICHMOND TIE-UP
SET FOR TO-DAY
Car Men to Strike Unless
TraCkmen Are Included
in Wage Increase.

Unless the Richmond Light and Rail
road Company of Staten Island agrees
10 include in its new contracts an in
crease in pay TO the trsckmen some 45O
motormen, conductors, brakemen and
power house men will tie up trolley
traffic on the island this morning at I
o'clock by going on strike.
On Tuesday the men had agreed TO
accept the compauy's new proposition
of increasing their pay from 70 cents
an hour to 27ia cents an hour. When
the committee of trainmen read the
contract presented to them yesterday
by the company, however, they refused
TO accent it because the trackmen were
not included in the increase.
K. A. Rand, vice-president and gen
eral manager of the company, argued
that the differences between the com
many and the trackmen had been set
tied independently, and urged the com
rnittee 10 accept his proposition.
When the committee refused he put
out hundreds Of placards at terminals,
stations and power houses, addressed 10
employees, which read:
For your information ! wish to state
that the working agreement between
the employees and the company has been
executed by our president, Charles A.
Hotchkiss, and is now awaiting the exc
cution of your committee. We have not
included the trackmen in this agree
ment. as we adjusted their pay indie
pendent Of the employees organization.
Therefore we do not feel as though
your committee is doing you or US JUS
tice in insisting that they should be in
cluded in your working agreement
As both sides are apparently obdu-
rate, il is feared that traffic on the ISL
and will be at a standstill this morning.

Prof. HertzOg Praises
This Perfect Laxative
DIR CAIDWEIIiS SYRUP PEPSlN
AN IDEAL REMEDY FOR
CONSTIPATION,

H. every family there is more or
less occasion for a laxative remedy.
Il Is to meet this need that DIT.
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin Is prepared
and this combination Of simple lax
ative herbs with pepsin fulfllls its
purpose is proven by its place IN
thousands OF American homes.
Prof. f. J. c. Hertzog, the well
known linguist, 234l North Arianna
ST., Philadelphia, Pa, wrote to DR..
Caldwell that he has used DR.. Cald-
wells syrup Pepsn in his household
with excellent results and that he
and his family consider II indeed i
friend in need ana always keep q
bottle OF it on hand
Constipation IS the direct cause OF
much serious illness and is a condi-
tlon that should never be neglected.
Harsh cathartics and violent purga-
tiVes should never be employed to
relieve constipation, because the very
violence of their action shocks the
entire system 4 mild laxative, such
as Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin Is far
preferable. being mild and gentle in
It's action, without gripping or other
pain or discomfort. its freedom from
all opiate or narcotic drugs makes It
an ideal remedy for children.

UNION COUNTY WANTS
NEW MOUNTAIN ROAD
Would Eliminate MeaCham from
Line of Auto and Wagon Traffic,
Dropping Down from kamcla To
Meacham Creek.

The county court of Union county
is mapping out new road over the
mountains to Pendleton which road
would eliminate Meacham from the
line of auto and wagon traffic. The
proposed road would drop down from
Ramela east until it struck Meacham
creek and would follow down Mea-
cham creek to Gihbon and thence to
Pendleton by the present road.
In advocating this route the Union
county court contends that it would
eliminate the big hill and give a new
road on grade better than five per
cent. The Umatilla county court has
been asked to meet the Union county
end of the road and Judge Marsh
last week made a trip to inspect the
new route. The major part of the
change would he in Umatilla county.
The union county court is also sec
onding the efforts OF the Umatilla
county court to secure federal aid
for roads across the mountains by
way Of Pendleton. bingham Springs
and north fork to Ia Grande.

PUTTING UP F1iuIT JuICEs.

This is the time Of year when the
housewife gathers the last fruits OF
the garden, and in canning, picking,
and preserving, prepares for the win
ter. Every good cookbook can be re-
lied upon for recipes, or the agricul-
tural bureau in Washington will sup
ply bulletins on sucn work. Fruit
juices such as apple, ounce. crab
abble, and grape, can be put away
and made up into jellies when need
ed. Following is the method: Add a
little water to any quantity Of cut-up
fruit, cook until sort, and strain
through flannel bags. Then. without
adding any sugar, bou up and skim.
Have ready quart Jars, in pail OF
boiling water. Take tine jars out, one
at a time. fill with the boiling liquid.
and seal at once Put up In this way.
iruit juices will keep anywhere and
any length Of time; and a quart OF
juice will make sufficient jelly to last
some time.
