Strike In Building Trades.

ASBURY PARK, April II. - As
bury Park is one of the Fairgrounds
of the business men and bosses. They
come here in the summer for vaca-
ton and play. 1t naturally is a
stronghold of reactionary and anti
union residents.
Ask Dollar Raise.
Building has increased in the past
five years. At the beginning of last
week 200 hod carriers and cement
mixers went on strike for an increase
in wages of one dollar a day. They
are now receiving 81. This demand
was refused by the bosses. AS a re-
suit all the building trades workers
have gone out on sympathetic strike
to force the contractors to concede
the demands of the workers.
wiz Organize Workers.
Meanwhile some of the building
contractors are getting little work
accomplished by non-union workers
and scabs. The Building Trades
Council is determined to organize
Monmouth county, which is a strong
hold of the Republic manufacturers.
Here lives Stevens, the senate ma
iority leader, who has been respon-
sible for killing so much labor legis-
lation.

"The general himself felt that,
though he was victorious. his army
had been disorganiZed. while the army
nj Lee, although repulsed. was by no
means shattered. Before long they
were facing each other across the
Rappahannock. The withdrawal OF a
cons ,derable number of his forces. due
to the draft riots in New York and for
other service, delayed his plan to lead
an attack across the stream.
"In November. after Lee had with
drawn behind the Rapidan, Meade
planned to engage him at Mine Run.
His plan became disarranged by the
failure of one of the generals, so that
the advance was abandoned. Although
there was great public Clamor for him
TO go forward. he refused 10 permit

slaughter of brave men and might put
IN jeopardy the Union cause. He had
sufficient character to rely on his own
judgment and sufficient conscience to
do what he thought was right.

made lieutenant general and placed in
supreme command of all the forces,

Study Reveals Abilities.
1.-The more we study the history
of the war in which he fought, the
more Gen. Meade stands out as a re-
sponsible and reliable commander.
Others may have had more dash,
though none surpassed him in cour
age. He did not. engage himself in
leading hopeless charges. He was,
rather, a general who kept himself
sufficiently informed as 10 the move
ments of his enemy and made such
preparation and wise disposition nf
his own troops that hopeless charges
were not necessary. 1t cannot be said
that he always won. but he exper-
fenced very little OF defeat. His per-
sonality was well rounded out. If it
appeared to possess no lofty peaks

HE wouldn't be, of course, If he

Being Arthur, he would have to
be insulting to the unknown third

spirit into her own reply.
How can he ask me to marry
him when I'm already married?
What would you do if you were in

Jealousy and longing rang in his
voice. And she was achingly sorry
for him. Because in the light of

to comprehend his. But what could
