CT have prayed that might never wake until that dream is finished. Now I see that it will be better for me if I never dream again. All my life have looked for the garden and the lady of my dream. To- night found the lady. My heart stopped when stood there in the crowd and looked up to her, and when she came down to the mob followed her. I could not help it. I had stopped thinking I was only desiring single word with her, and it seemed that l had rather hear her speak once than to listen to all the music in the world.
 T overlook her, as you know, here in this room. Here caught her hands, and told her my name and how long had loved the thought of her. But you saw. She was too frightened to understand. Do you be- lieve me, Arsigny?'
 "In those bright eyes there was devil begging me not to believe, but I nodded my head. Then he stared at the floor a mo- ment and answered.: Of course, this is the only way. I shall leave New Orleans to- morrow on an extended trip around the world. We shall never meet again.

 "And that was how left James Baron at our first meeting. When I bade good night to Marie, after the ball, it seemed to me that in her eyes there was still a trace of blankness-the same empty, startled look which had been in them since she stared up into the face of Baron. It wor- ried me a little, but I ascribed it t first to the shock of that strange meeting.
 "It was not hard to understand, on those grounds. Besides, was too happy to be inquisitive or suspicious, yet when day after day passed and the time of our wedding was at hand, it grew on me that a deep change had come over Marie. could not explain it to myself at the time. All that would have any meaning for you is that when I sat talking with her continually grew uneasy and would take to glancing over my shoulder. For it always seemed, do you see, that Marie was aware of some one behind me-"

THAT the milling trust and the

by the constant activity of these

that farmers were never in better
shape than now, and that all that
Is necessary to bring about an
agricultural millennium is to raise
the tariff on wheat, reduce pro-

exorbitant freight rates.

 VICE PRESIDENT OF NEW ENGLAND TYPOS
Convention in Pittsfeld, Mass. Marked By Many Import
 ant Matters.

Pittshe1d June 29-Fred A. Spead, of Lowell, was elected president of the New England Typographical Union at the closing session of the 14th annual con- vention this week and Concord, N. H., was selected for the convention next year.
 Three vice presidents were elected :: John c. McGowan, New Haven; Henry LaBurr, Concord, N. H., and Carl Yer Till, Portland, Me.

Andrews, of Danbury, Conn, retiring president of the union, was selected as delegate to attend the New Jersey State Conference of Union League Printers at Plainfleld, next month.
 A resolution was adopted to enter bill in the Massachusetts legislature to make the law passed in 1912 permanent allowing equal working conditions for men and women in the printing industry, and restoring the Saturday half holiday and eight hour day to printers engaged III state work. The law ceased to be operative last year.
 Resolutions were also adopted in memoriam on the deaths of John Mo Parland, president of the International Union, who died in office last week :; Marsden c. Scott, past president and Bert c. Brady, former representative of the International Union.
 Mayor Charles w. Power extended the welcome of the city to delegates at the opening session. Fifty-two delegates representing as many towns and cities from throughout New England, were present.
 Mayor Power in his welcome related some of his experiences in newspaper work and his association with printers at that time. He paid high tribute to the quality of men engaged in the work and the part they have played to bring about dissemination of knowledge for the advancement of civilization.
 President Andrews, who is a repre- sentative in the Connecticut legislature, and assistant labor commissioner for his state, told of the increasing number of problems facing the union. He stressed the problem caused by the increasing use of the type-setting machine, which necessltates change from hand labor to machine labor. Training of new men now IS much more difficult, he said, than when men were employed in handsetting of tvDe
 Many of the delegates were guided on a tour to various points of interest in Berkshire county. Automobiles were furnished through the courtesy of the Automobile club. A chicken dinner was served at Bonny Bridge in Labanon Springs, N. Y.

PHONE OPERATORS
 OPEN BIG STRIKE
Tieup Massachusetts and Rhode Is-
 land and Cripple Other States.

Boston, Mass, June 2o.-With Massachusetts and Rhode Island the hardest hit, the strike of telephone operators in five New England states started as scheduled Tuesday and is still on. Telephone communication in Rhode Island was practically at a standstill. Service in most of the larger Massachusetts cities outside of Boston was badly crippled. Tele- phone officials in many districts linn ited calls to those of an emergency nature.
 In Boston the company was partly successful maintaining service in sew eral exchanges while other emer- gency operators were unable to fur nish anything that approached nor nal service. Lawrence, Springfield, Worcester and Lynn were among the Bay State cities hardest hit.
 Tn New Hampshire both sides are claiming victories.
 Tn Maine and Vermont the strik- CTS were far from successful in call ing out representative force, and service was practically uninterrupted.

 He advocated a gradual levy on fortunes of f5,0OO up and declared there could be no financial prosperity as long as f1,00O,O0O had to be taken out of the product of labor each work ing day, before either wages were paid or profit made, merely to defray the in terest on the war debt

FORCES MORAL
 ISSUE TO CARE
 FOR WORKMEN
Old Pamphlet on Steel Strike Pur- posely Garbled By Dr. John
 son to Enslave Workers.

New York, June 2o.-"When in- l dustry employs men I2 hours day 1t i IS committing a moral trespass and challenges the churches in their own veld," declares the Rev. F. Ernest | Johnson, head of the research depart
 ment of the Federal Council of Churches today in making public ad- vance proof sheets of "The Twelve Hour Day in the Steel Industry" research bulletin on the long work day.
 The research bulletin has been in preparation for months and is a com pilation of reports of investigators of recognized competence and standing into conditions connected with the
 two-shift day. The cumulative effect ,, is overwhelmingly against the I2- hour day.
 Mr. Johnson states that this work
 on the part of the churches is neces-
 sary because of the prevalence of
 misleading propaganda in connection
 with the I2-hour day.
 The statement Is as follows: "The entrance of the churches once again into the I2-hour day contro- versy means that we have been forced to take seriously the> statement made
 by Judge E. H. Gary, the acknow1- edged leader of the steel industry in America, that he is less concerned over the T2-hour day itself than over
 what the public thinks about 1t. We feel 1t our duty to keep the public
 informed about conditions in the i'm
 dustry until the public demands that
 they be changed. Apparently the
 manufacturers responsible for the re- cent report issued by the American
 Iron and Steel Institute are not inn pressed with the weight of public opinion on this subject
 "It was assume dthat the appoint
 ment of an investigating committee a year ago meant that the industry was about to yield to the urgent re- quest of the President of the United States. It now appears that this ac- tion was only gesture. We do not accept the Iron and Steel Institutes estimate of the public conscience on the I2-hour day. We believe the pub lie has a strong conviction about 1t when brought face to face with the
