WASHINGTON. June 2S.-American organized labor has refused to par ticipate in the trades union conference which will convene in Switzerland next September, according to a state ment given out by labor leaders hero today. The roason fer the American refusal to join the conference lies in the fact that 1t is an avowed part of the conference program hat delegates of labor from certain neutral nations and also representative of lslior from the central powers will discuss 'aooJ s peace demands.
 Invitations have been presented to Holland, Norway Sweden, 'ep ark, Finland. Germany, Austro- Hungary, Bulgaria and America to send labor delegates to the conference.
 The reply of the American labor circle. which is now in its way to Europe in addition to positively de- clnng ithe offer declares that the project is premature and untimely and can lead to no good purpose.
 The action of organized labor in the present instance hs in line with the stand taken by Samuel Gompers and other prominent labor leaders with respect to the previvous attempts to

We say a good deal Of the value
in times of trouble Of the sympathy
Of intimate friends. They are, in
deed, the only ones who can help in
grief and perplexity, because they un-
derstand US and can express them
selves in a way that we understand,
says Milwaukee Journal. Do we think
as often Of the real service Of sharing
our troubles with others, or letting
them be partakers Of our Utmost feel
ings? 1t is the only way we can be
ready to serve them truly in their sor-
row. The value Of friend is meas
ured not by his greatness Of intellect
nor even the bigness Of his heart, but
by his nearness to us. The way In
which one becomes near to us, in which
the evil that rises between man and
man is lifted, Is through confiding.
The one to whom we turn most natu-
rally in our trouble is the one whom
we have been able to help. If he had
not let us share his grief, he would
not be able to share ours. It is as much
an obligation not to lock away ones
own heart as it is to bring comfort to
other hearts.

BUBBLE FOUNTAIN DANGER.

Doubts as to the sanitary value OF
the bubble fountain are aroused in the
mind of any ordinary unscientifc
person who sees a drinker press his
lips down to the metal from which the
bubble proceeds. Scientific investiga-
ton at the University Of Wisconsin has
shown that in bubble fountains
whose streams are vertical disease
germs are likely to remain dancing on
the water jets like rubber balls on
fountain stream and to become q
source of contagion. Investigation as
to the source of an epidemic of strep-
tococcus tOnsillitis in one Of the
dormitories Of the university two
years ago, an account Of which was
given in a recent issue Of the Journal
of the American Medical Association,
showed that the infection came from
bubble fountains. Further experiments
in which organisms were purposely in
troduced showed that while most Of
them were washed away by the vertical
streams, some remained even when
these were increased to the impractical
height of four inches. To avoid this
difficulty, always present in vertical
column Of spouting water, simple
fountain with tube at an angle Of so
degrees was constructed. No trace
Of the organisms purposely introduced
was found in streams at this angle,
even when samples were taken imme-
diately afterward. The Wisconsin in
vestigators believe that jet Of water
from a tube erected at an angle Of Is
degrees or more from the vertical,
and with an adequate collar guard to
prevent contact with the orifice, is
adequate.

A New York shoe dealer says his
firm has customers who buy 100 pairs
OF shoes a year. These women, he says,
many Of them, construct their own
styles, and naturally they not only
have shoes for every occasion and
every gown, but they never think Of
wearing shoes that are not perfectly
fresh. They order from six to eight
pairs Of shoes at time. All this will
hardly have tendency to encourage

In Pekin.
This revolution to restore the.hated
Tartar autocracy is probably inspired
by the Japs in hopes thereby to stir up
civil war, and thus plunge the country
into such state of anarchy as will re-
quire their interference to restore order.
Those cunning and INSCRIPTIONS
yankees of the Orient" would in
that event contrive to seize much or all
of China's territory, just as they
grabbed that of helpless Korea.
To anyone with good eyesight it is as
plain as a pikestaff that Japan is thus
planning to dismember or seize the vast
Chinese empire and shut out our foreign
trade absolutely a word, to shut with
an insolent bang the "open door" which
the far-seeing craftsmanship of Secre-
tary Hay had forced and maintained.
The facts will convince any one but a
blind visionary. Thus: Japan is smaller
than several of our states, California
for example, being almost exactly
the size of Montana, while the hippo
nese empire might be tucked away in
Texas and there would still be room for
all New England, Delaware Maryland,
and New Jersey, and then $4,000 square
miles be left!
Much of the territory Of Japan is
barren and unproductive, and the climate
unfavorable to agriculture in the north
ern part.
Japan's National debt is much greater
than our own, and with less than one
tenth of our wealth it has a per capita
debt two and one-half as large as ours
Yet this poor debt-ridden Japan with
no enemies at home or abroad likely
ever to assault it, is feverishly piling up
a huge national debt to build a navy
greater than ours and to support a
standing army of 100000, with reserve
of !, 200, 900 more.
Why? Plainly to box Uncle Sam S
simple ears, if they stay simple, that is,
with no more adequate military and
naval protection than they hitherto
have had.
