Jack Johnson" and SO The young negro knocked
over one setup after another and the chorus grew
louder until the experts got to thinking they couldn't
be wrong
Then along came the former champ Max Schmel-

knockout. Finally recovering from the Shock
the experts decided Joe just had off night he
went along to victories tossing off the Schmelng
defeat and finally winning the title.
Last night Joe went into the ring to defend that
title. The experts" offering as much seven

rounds. But it proved to be another Schmeling

Horoscope
'<The stars incline
but do not compel"

THURSDAY, AUGUST 81, 1887
Friendly stars rule on this first
day of the month, according to as
trology. 1t is read as time most
suspicious for advertising and mer-
chandising in many forms.
Although the aspects do not en-
courage the actual launching of new
enterprises it is read as most aus
picious time for planning future &C
tivities.
There is a sign believed to secure
clear foresight and the actual vision
which enables wise decision in bus
mess and professional affairs.
While there will be differences OF
opinion on matters of supreme i'm
portance to the nation, this is a
favorable sway under which to out
line social and political programs.
Legal papers should be signed
, while this configuration prevails
1t is a lucky date for leases and con-
tracts.
This month is to be marked by
labor activities over an even wider
field and with greater victories for
unions previously.
The seers declare that heads of
big business and those at the helm
of government have clear vision OF
approaching international problems
which make compromises of SUI
preme Importance.
Dissatisfaction at curtailment of
relief will be expressed in many
states and new methods of caring
for indigents will be imperative.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of fair profit
Widening interests in sports and So
cial affairs are forecast for the
young.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be intelligent and able to
make much n whatever talents they
possess. Subjects of this sign of
Virgo may turn to writing as a vo-
cation.
Rex Beach, novelist, was born on
this day 1877. Others who have
celebrated it as a birthday include
Edgar Rice Burroughs, writer, 1875;
Lydia Huntley Sigourney, poet, 1871 ;

Hi tfstisa i
Q. Is it all right for a girl to con-
graduate man, whom she does not
know very well, on his marriage?
A. Yes, if she is a friend of the
bride. 1t seems somewhat out OF
place if she does not know the bride
Then it would be better merely to
extend good wishes.
@. What is the minimum that
one should tip porter for carry
ing a bag?
A. Ten cents is the minimum for
enc bag. If there are several heavy
bags, to be carried quite a distance
the tip should of course be more.
@. What should a girl do with
corsage bouquet that is presented
to her at formal dinner?
A. Pin the bouquet to her gown

Life in the A. F. of i.
New York TineSl

New York Times
A few weeks ago the American Federation of La
Dor seemed to be losing all fronts of the Committee
for Industrial Organization Its comparative losses
were not surprising. The CLIO. was organizing work
erS that the AT. Of L. had never seriously attempted
to organize The CLIO, regularly winning its
strikes. 1t even winning large gains without
strikes in the agreement reached with the Carnegie
Illinois Steel Corporation Naturally, many workers
voted to enlist under its banners. Nothing succeeds
like success.
Some observers were beginning to predict that
the AFT of L. would in time evaporate into the CLIO.
But in the last week or two the parent body has
proved that it still retains considerable vitality This
was most convincingly shown in its victory over the
lCIO. in the poll conducted in the Philadelphia bak-
ing industry, which means that the CLIO will now
withdraw from that field
The new gains of the AT. of L. doubtless to some
Iexent reflect recent losses of the CLIO The setback
Iof the latter organization in the steel industry has
indicated that it may not invariably win its strikes.
It's methods in recent strikes moreover have aenaed
much public opinion, including that of workers There
has been increasing discussing of possible break
between Mr.. Lewis and the President If the poll of
The American Institute of Public Opinion is to be
taken at its face value, William Green of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor is preferred by vote of two
to John L. Lewis of the CLIO; and Mr..
Green's greater popularity extends the lower
one-third' of the voters.
The question of craft unions versus industrial I'M
ions has several aspects but from the standpoint of
durability it is clear that the craft unions have two
advantages AS they often consist entirely of of
special ski they less easily replaced in the event
of strike. Because they made up of workers
less parity of skill and function divisions
of interest unlikely to within their ranks
The vertical unions the other hand, may consist
of unskilled and badly paid workers at the bottom
and highly skilled and highly paid workers at the
top and division of interest between these two groups
are likely to
