URGE BIG w LINE.
Electrical Engineers Would Have 1t
Connect All New ENGLAND.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 15.-EIec-
trical and mechanical engineers, in ses-
sion at the Bellevue tratford, urged the
establishment of a high-tension trans-
mission line connecting the coal centers
of PENNSYLVANIA with the New England
states. The project. which would entail
an expense of 81, ZOO, 100000. would yield
in revenue $500. 000, 900 a year with a
saving of 59,000,000 tons of coal for the
same period, it was estimated.
For many years the feasibility of man.
ufacturing electrical current at the point
of coal production. and the transmission
of that current to the users of electricity
throughout many states, has been dis
cuSsed. Yesterday, however. was the
first time a group of prominent men rep
~resenting the electrical industry ever
backed the project. ..,r.
The meeting was held under the, aus
pices of the Philadelphia section of the
American Institute of Electrical Engin-
eering and the American Society of Me
chanical Engineers. \ resolution was
signed by the 80 members present and
forwarded to Washington.

The Days Are Stairs.

The days are stairs that from below
Up to Gods shining threshold GO
one has told us long ago!
The days are stairs to things sublime,
we who would achieve must climb!
Deem not that it was y%esteryear
Or in the future; now and here
Divinely traced for seeing eyes
The ultimate decision lies!
The days are stairs: their Architect
Has planned a work without defect;
And we who wisely utilize
Shall share the conquest of the skies
Let creedists quarrel dOgmatists
Assert the cause with frOwns and fists
Truth is unmoved kind Heaven forbear'
To smite us and the days are stairs!
Despite clashing theologues
In temples and in synagogues,
No widest catachysm jars
The steadfast staircase of the stars!
Whatever else has been concealed
Whatever else has been revealed
God hears, / know. unselfish prayers,
And to His House the days are stairs!

NORTH ADAMS, Mass, Dee. b.
The only manufacturing plant in this city
to announce wage reductions to become
effective next Monday was the Greylock
mills, which employ about 400 hands. The
concern makes cotton lawns. The reduc-
ton announced there is 2215 per cent. In
all the other plants about the city, it was
stated yesterday, that no action on the
matter had yet been taken and in only
one of the plant offices was it stated that
the matter is under consideration. The
general belief about the city is, however.
that before long this city will follow the
lead of other textile centers in the matter
of wage scale revision. What action the
textile union here will take, if any. is not
yet known. There is to be a mass meeting
of union members tonight, but the matter
to be discussed has not been given out as
yet. Organizer Joseph White of Cohoes.
\. Y, has been in the city for the past
couple of days and it is expected that he
will remain here for tonight's meeting.
