STEEL WORKERS BACK
MILLS IN CHICAGO DISTRICT
OPERATING AT so PER CENT.
Union Leaders Deny Plants Are Doing
Half of Normal Business 900
Back at Gary.

Chicago, Oct 3.-The steel mills of
the Chicago district, crippled for near
ly two weeks by general strike, oper-
ated at so per cent of their normal ca
pacity, according to United States
Steel corporation representatives.
Large increases in the working forces
of virtually all mills in the district
were reported by the companies. Gains
of more Importance were predicted for
tomorrow. Belief that the strike of
steel workers has failed, SO far as the
Chicago district is concerned, was gen
eral in circles sympathetic with the
employers. Union leaders denied the
statement that the mills we're doing
half their normal business, and in
sisted that the strikers were as strong
as ever. The appearance of the mills
belied the unions claims, however.
Though still closed to visitors, the
plants bore all the signs of activity.
Half the stacks were smoking and
most of the furnaces were going. At
Gary the steel mills reported that
5000 of the 1900 men who walked out
when the strike was called have re-
turned to work The South Chicago
mills of the Illinois Steel company
were lighted up for the first time since
the walkout.
Canvassers at Indiana Harbor said
a majority of the 1000 strikers there
had signified willingness to go back.
Members of the works council of the
Wisconsin Steel company, an Interna-
tional Harvester subsidiary at Indiana
Harbor, called for vote on pro-
posal that the plant be reopened.
Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. 3.-More men
went back to work at the Steelton
plant of the Bethlehem Steel company
than on any day since the strike
against the company was launched. Of
ficials of the company said.

by union labor leaders, Judge Ebert

than his ceknpany.
'sThere is no reason for this strike, :"
Mr.. Gary said. "The men didn't want
it. They were satisfied with their jobs.
It was the union leaders who wanted
the strike"
eff unions control industry in the
United States it means decay and a
dropping off Of production" Mr.. Gary
told the committee.
ct means this country cannot keep
up in the race with the world. It
means the condition fear England is
in today"

mittee," said Judge Gary, that the
steel companies have been guilty Of
ill-treatment Of their employees. Some
statements have been made on misin-
formation and some absolutely with
out foundation.

BUSY GREEK PEASANT GIRL
Care of Sheep and Goats, and House
hold Duties, Leave Her Little
Time for DalIying.

To the Greek peasant girl is com.
mitted the care of her fathers flock,
which she must lead every day to the
pasture and fold at night. The vosko-
poula, or shepherdess, is one of the
most prominent characters in rural
folk song, and many a charming idyl
has been composed in her honor. Z.
But she has little time for sylvan dali
lying, for the sheep and goats must be
MIXED, and the milk must be convert
ed into cheese and yiaourti; delicious
and wholesome sour curd, which is in
great demand in the towns. When the
sheep have been shorn, the wool is
bleached and spun, and then knitted
and woven into garments for the FAM
lily or into cloth for sale. The cotton
or flax grown on the farm must also
be gathered in their seasons, and pre-
pared for use. The cotton pods are
put through a small hand machine
called the mangano, which turns two
rollers different ways, and separates
the fiber from the seed. The instru-
ment next used is the toxevein, large
bow made from a curved piece OF
wood five or more feet long, the two
ends of which are connected by stout
string. The cotton is placed loosely
on the string, which is made to vibrate
by being struck with a stick, produc-
| ing a not unmusical sound. This proc
ess detaches the particles Of cotton,
and it is now ready to use as wad-
ding for the large quilts, which, with
a sheet tackled to the under side, form
all the winter bed covering used by
the lower orders of natives of every
race. The mattresses are also usually
stuffed with cotton, and the palliasses
with 4he husks of'Indian corn.

came a time of dancingand fe asst
ing for all the inhabitants. Every
one was happy except the Princess
Tweedledee herself, who hated
the Queens wicked son and his
mother, and, unfortunately SO for
got her dignity as to soundly slap
one of her subjects. For this she
was sentenced to prison.
Now although the Wicked
Queen had succeeded in getting
the Princess out of the way, she
realized that until the Seven
Princes were disposed of she could
not hope to get control Of the
kingdom. So she summoned her
Witch. The Witch disguised her
as a beautiful woman and pre-
tended to be drowning in the
large pool in the Palace Court
yard, making such a fuss and to-
do that every one of the seven
brave princes plunged in to rescue
her. But on account of their good
ness and kindn ess, instead of
drowning, as she had hoped, they
turned into seven beautiful white
swans. At the Orpheum Thursay

"The Kingdom of the Seven
Dials," so called because out in

At last the betrothal was an
