WANTED TO BE INTRODUCED
Bringing In Of New Foreman Led to
Strike in Munition Factory In
English Town.

A novelty in the way of strikes was
described at the munitions tribunal
Caxton Hall, England, recently.
1t appears That 240 men struck for
two days because their employers had
shown lack of courtesy In introducing
a new foreman without notifying the
men Of the appointment, says the
Chronicle. Proceedings were taken
against 25 of the men.
For the workers, the court was told
that 1t was the custom to Introduce a
new foreman with the remark, Mr..
-, this will be your new foreman
in future" The first they heard from
the new foreman was threat to sus-
pend a man.
Mr.. Glib (manager) said it would
be impossible to introduce foreman
to 10000 men.
The workmen replied that there
were only so men concerned. They
did not expect Mr.. Glib to Introduce
the man to the whole factory or to
the young ladies in the shop.
Another workman said that they did
not know the fOreman's name. He was
ordering the men about and they
Thought that he was a policeman.
The court would not impose any PEN
atty. and hoped in future things would
work harmoniously.

FRENCH SUCCESS IN ALGERIA
One Hundred Years Of Effort ls at
Last Beginning to Bring Measure
Of Reward.

After vast expenditure of lives and
treasure, France is beginning to reap
its reward from >the conquest Of AL
geria. hundred years ago the north
ern African country was the abode Of
barbarism, and piracy was the prin-
cipal occupation Of its people. The
United States was the first nation to
revolt against the payment Of tribute
TO the dey of Algiers for protection"
to commerce, and after brief but
thrilling conflict, the buccaneer chief
tain was brought to his knees.
In 1927 the French took up the
white mans burden in Algiers, and
after struggle of 30 years subdued
the country. Under the monarchy and
the second empire the government of
Algeria was based solely on force, but
the republic won the allegiance of the
Algerians by withdrawing the mill
tary government from all Of the settled
portions of the country, which have
since been treated very much as IL
they were part of France. each de-
partment sending one senator and two
deputies to the French chambers. AL
gerians, save for few of the tribes
men in the remote interior, are now
loyal Frenchmen, regardless Of color
race or religion, and they are fighting
bravely for "la patrie." Algeria also
supplies vast quantities of foodstuffs
and metals to France.

ARE FORBIDDEN TO MAnKY
Rules Of Club In Pennsylvania Unique
In Encouraging Violations OF
Bylaws.

The Twentieth Century New Year
club of StrausstOwn, 1S miles northwest
of this city, at its annual business
meeting recently imposed fines on two
members who had broken the chief Of
the clubs commandments, Thou shalt
not marry" the Philadelphia Ledger
says. They We're Charles Balthaser
and Miss Beulah Batteiger. Each was
fined 81 and each paid the money, fol-
lowing which they were formally ex-
PEELED. Whether they were married
to each other does not appear in the
minutes. The fact remains they en-
tered the forbidden state and were
duly fired out of the circles Of the
single and select remainder.
Since the formation of the club on
December 81. 1899, IL couples have
broken the rules. The membership is
growing all the time, however, so that
100 young people of northeastern Berksi
are now on the roll. The club Is not
an anti-matrimonial society. 1t Is the
only association in existence, so far as
known. that encourages members to-
break the rules and bring about their
expulsion. Any members thus ex-
PEELED make an honorary exit. The
more marriages the mere popular do
the members consider their organiza-
ton and the more effective do they
rate its purposes.
Resolutions aimed at the bachelor
members were passed. The resolu-
tions committee Is composed of girls,
and Carrie Unger Is chairman. The
resolutions expressed regret that not
more Of the male members had mar
ried. 1t was leap year and not enough
of the girls got results from their pro-
posals to make the record satisfying.
All the bachelor members voted
against the resolutions, but the fem
lnine opposition was too strong.

Glass and Razor as Diet.

Were 1t not for the fact that glass
and hardware have taken such leaps
in prices Charles Cooper, big col
ored fellow of Spokane, WASH, would
have the high cost of living eliminated
from life's worries, says the Spokane
Chronicle.
Cooper was arrested for larceny and
while confined In Jail heard that his
sweetheart had gone back on him. He
thereupon smashed up jelly glass
and ate it. The county doctor set
the date for his death as the glass
slowly ground into him. But Charles
only had Il bad stomachache. Later
he ate hatpin, some safety pins and
other pieces of metal, according to the
disclosures of the N-ray.
After 1t seemed that Cooper had be-
come reconclled to diet of bread and
potatoes he suddenly became rave
nous one day and ate safety razor
blade, broken in small pieces. The
doctor told the coroner to be ready,
but Cooper fooled him again and was
reduced once more to meat and spuds
and hurdtack.
Now he is out of Jail and on his
honeymoon trip.

Millions of Eggs From the Nile.

News that Egypt has exported quite
recently some 100000 eggs caused
one to realize quite suddenly that the
Nile Is becoming the worlds greatest
hennery. one has generally associated
the Nile with wheat and sand, but the
land of the Pharaohs is really well
adapted and fitted for the poultry bust
ness.
The grain Is near at hand, but above
all the climate is constantly mild and
generally uniform. The days are long
and there Is no need of keeping the
hens under cover during the winter
months. Long days and out of doors
the poultry journals tell us are the two
great prerequisites for egg production.
Egypt having them both. the egg ex-
port does not seem so staggering. Also
eggs have never approached value
nearer their weight In gold thnn ut
present. Egyptian eggs are selling
in the London market ut 30 cents n
dozen.

BORN IN Different YEARS
Prank Played by Fate on Scotch Twins
Another Remarkable Incident
of Birth In England.

In Inverness-shire, Scotland, there
live-or lived until recently-u pair OF
twins who celebrated their birthday In.
different years. The eldest of these
Scotch twins was born on December
81, 1856, while the Junior twin was.
born on January !, 1887. One of them
arrived In the world few minutes
before the church bells began ringing
out the old year and the other was
born few minutes after midnight.
A much more remarkable case Oc-,
Cured in England few years ago.
On February "a the wife of work
ingman, at Barrow, in Lancashire, gave
birth to another child, girl. Six
weeks interviewed between the birth of
the first and second twins. Under the
insurance act the father was entitled
to u maternity benefit of $3.50. The
sum Is the same for twins as for single
babies, however. The father alleged
that an interval Of six weeks was suf-
ficient to destroy the twinship of the
infants and applied for a second ma
ternity benefit, thus giving the COM
missioners hard problem to solve.
The most remarkable instance Of
this kind was reported in medical
journal several years ago, when a
physician described case in which
triplets were born a month apart. The
second baby followed the first after a
little over a month had elapsed and

AS TO THEORY OF GENIUS.
Authorities Have Greatly Differed Con.
cernino What Constitutes iIlusory
Power Of the Mind.

In nn article contributed by DR.. A. G.
jacobson of Brooklyn to the New Yori
Medical Journal there are given wha,
he calls some possible clues to the na-
rure OF genius" His theory, whether
true or not, at least does not long be
the whole question in despair as doe
the commonly accepted definition o'
genius as ian infinite capacity for tax
fng palms," and of course 1t galns
plausibility from the fact that 1t is sol
Idly based on Freudian psychology.
Doctor Jacobson offers as his "clues'
the observed similarities between tho
conditions in which geniuses and tn,
so-called trance mediums manifest; in
the latter case the content OF an in.
ferior and irresponsible subconscious-
ness, and In the former that of one su.
perior in quality and possessing ere.
ative power. In both instances, accord
ing to him, the phenomena are, or may
be, those of dissertation, of sec
Ondary personality, and in neither is
there any need to assume, or any ex-
cuse for deducing, the concept of su-
pernatural or suprarational inspiration
This is distinctly startling sug
gestion, but its shock Is not permanent
for u Is almost common knowledg,
that there is something trancelfke In
the abstraction of attention from out
side objects and influence that marks
the genius as he performs his seeming
miracles; and the possibility that sec
ondary and subcOnsciOus ego but one
primary and conscious is then in ac-
tion fits in well enough with what Will
liam James wrote of reserve powers.
BY Doctor JacObson's theory, then,
the genius differs from common NOR
tails chiefly in that he has special fa.
cility for removing In one way or an
other, the inhlbitions that prevent the
emergence and functiOning Of a sub
consciousness that happens to be of
high quality. 1t will deeply grieve the
teetotalers to learn that the doctor
gives long list Of great names, some
Of the dead and some of the living
whose owners owed or owe to alcohol
the breaking down of the ordinary in
hibitions that prevent the majority of
US from being either trance mediums
or genipses. It is list in part provo.
cative of incredulity, and by no means
to be repeated here, Another LIST pre-
sented by him Of geniuses whom the
toxins of tuberculosis served as lib
orator of the creative ego could be
more safely rehearsed, but 1t is enough,
perhaps, to second Doctor JacObson's
suggestion that societies for physica,
research would be better employed In
the investigation of genius than In that

tended purveyOrs Of "communicat tons
