BY BERNARD ROSE. "Say, Billy, where are you going this morning?" inquired James Hodgson of his younger brother. "Going? I am going down to 'see the foreman of the iron works, arid will show those darned strikers that there is at least one American that is not afraid to show his contempt for law breaking foreigners." "Better be careful," said James "the men have been on strike for several weeks, and are dangerous." "Bah!answered his brother. "Think I'm afraid of those galoots? I believe in upholding the right of every man working for whom and how much he pleases." "Yes, that is true," said James "but there is no reason for you taking the place of a striker. Ycm,are well fixed, and will only get yourself into trouble by carrying out your intention." "I don't care," he saiJ "I am going to see the foreman^ and will offer him myservices." "All right," answered James "but look out for your skin." Young Bill, with an aifr: of deter mination, sustained by' an intense pat riotism, wended his way through the streets of the village to where the works Were located. As lie approach ed the .entrance he .was Accosted by a little man in jeans, wearing a broken hat and-smoking a clayV^ipe, who .re spectfully told him that a strike And./what did the management say?" asked Bill. "They would not listen to us. We offered to compromise,, but they would not hear c*f it," the little fellow an swered. Well," said Bill, "and could you, not get along comfortably even if your wages were reduced 10 per cent? You foreigners can live cheap." The little picket drew himself up to his full height and said: I beg your pardon me and my brothers are not foreigners we were all born in the* United States." But, according to the papers," said Bill, you are .aliens, trying to abridge American gliberty and a citizen's right to work." "The'papers lie," the picket retorted^ "We. interfere with no man's liberty. We are simply exercising our rights by saying that we refuge to work for starvation wages that. the. unfeeling employer offers us." "But, you know," said Bill, "the' law says.you have no right to stp other men from taking your places." "We are not stopping any one from taking our pHaces," answered the picket. "All that we ask of those that, like yourself, think our employ ers treated us like millionaires, is to abstain from work till the manage ment see fit to' recognize the justice and trutlT of our contention." "And if I do not go to work in your place," said Bill, "will, you and'your 'brothers, when you have won the strike, take me )nto the.. union,. and- try and get me a job?" "M'ost assuredly we will," answered the little picket. "Are you married?" demanded Bill.: '(Yes," said the striker "I have wife and five children." "Any of them go to work?" he asked j_"No," answered the picket "one ,1s ill the hospital, another* is down with the fever and a' third 'is a cripple." "And do you keep any' servants?" asked patriotic Bill. The, picket smiled^• and replied: "Even when working regular my wages are hardly sufficient to pay,.-for r£rit clothing and .food, without ?ny ,paying lilll t* DETAINS MOY&RI OF BREAKI^Q STRJ KE. (was m~progress. "What are-you-on strike for?" asked' Bill. "We are on strike," answered the little picket, "because we refused to consent to a reduction, of wages." "And how must were you getting before the strike?" asked Bill. "We were paid $2 50 a cday, and they wanted to reduce crur pay 10 per cent. We could not consent to this, and the union held a meeting, and af ter debating the matter for several hours we concluded that we could not accept the reduction." "T.Tm!" said Bill. And did you im mediately call a strike?" "Oh, no!" answered the little mail. "We appointed a committee tcf see the management and point out to them that we could not afford the reduc tion, as the price of house rent and provisions had increased 15 per cent since last year and that our families would have to go without some of the necessaries of life if we consented, to such a large reduction in our pay." Hopes to iscourageMfneirs at Thsir, Conventionr" so THit -ths Strike in Colorado "May Be Declared Off. oyer -Is theCentral Figure.—M lit! a Will Detain Him .to Defeat Him'for Reelection. Denver, Only May S:—Sherman Bell, the Colorado outlaw, who is in com mand of '-the-uniformed traitors to state and najtion andwffo compose the na tional guard,_ hasliad a few things tp say regarding the coming convention of the Western Federation of Miners which was "scheduled for Butte, but which- is likely te. be delayed. by the strike and by Moor's imprisonment. The matter postponing the conven tion has been submitted- to a referen dum.' What the result' of the vote will be is not yet known, but certain it is that, the submission of the question of (postponement has aroused considerable opposition, wifh gjottfe of the ^member ship of one of the W! F.jJtT. unions. Now comes Sherman, Belli who says: I ath reliably informed that the con vention at Butte will call the strike off or will give the miners'-here authority to do so." Bell's statement implies a reflection on every member of the Wi Pi M. and particularly: on the Montana member ship. No union man worthy of the name would hold such' converse with Bell. No one but ia union man would be able to sa.y just-what the convention may or may not do. The convention being held In Bute is natural to sup pose that Montana will be largely rep resented. To say -that they would be a party to throwing: "the strike .is whol ly unwarranted. Montana union men have a good reputation and Mr. Bell cannot smirch it. It is true there are tools in the unions everywhere, but the rank and file can always be depended on to do the right thing. The idea suggests itself, did Sher man Bell,, with his usual loud mouth ness, give the' mine owners' snap away? Is it the plan of the" "mine owners to attempt to .get the*W-. F. M. conven tion to do the very thing which Bell declared it would do? If so,,.then Mr. Bell has. spoiled their little game, for the moment a delegate-Would' attempt tp advance the Bell idea of calling the strike off and laying iown to Peabody & Co., the convention1 would at once know whose interests he was trying to serve and, it would..b.e a speedy case of "Rouse Mit Him."

Of course, as.4ime goes ion ajnd t^iese orig iriai designs- .are copied hy the world at large, the chances are that the trim mings wilt*be shabby.i made of cheap material, and Naltogether very dreadful. At the 'preserit .mom^nt they bear the stamp of* ^fashion's, Approval, the best materials and the flnei3t hand work, combinatioti which is sjuref to be effec tive,- even if hardly1 effective enough to warrant ,the. outlay of the money they cost. There is rio Reason, ..however, for the woman to whom money is an object to -be absolutely discouraged at the advance fashion information. As is al ways the case with extremes, a happy medium-can be found, and there never was ac time when aL woman could be better dreBsed than at the present mo ment, provided she'chooses some style of dress that is suitable to her par ticular style of. besiuty and provided she be independent £.» regards it. White wool frocks, white silk frocks, white lingerie frocks, multiply rapidly as spring advances, and though it is said that' the: coming symmer will not be such a pronounced white season as we have had before and that the pale tints are to have the lead, there is no dbubt that white will be much worn This, however, doe§ not mean exactly what it would have wieant a few years ago, for we have been educated to more subtle graduations of .color, and there are today many shades of white, each differing radically frAn the other, Black gowns have1 within the last two or three weeks: been exhibited as among the latest fashions, and there are a great many, with, black others have a touch or white about them. The smartest, howeveir, are black, and there are some capital models In crepe de chine, crepe de Paris and taffeta silk. Without, expeptipn- the fashionable cloth gown of the spring is.maide long and is not intended for walking. It is really a reception gown of-an elab orate type, and the' models used are equally effective in other ^materials! "And how do you^ manage to live during, the. strike?"-he asked. "We get $5 a week, which is called 'strike pa,y,'" the picket answered. "And can you pay rent and buy food for xour family with, that .small sum??' demandedv his Interrogator. "No," the little picket pathetically answered. "We have had bread and black tea twice a day since the strike started." "Well, this' Is most extraordinary,'* said Bill. "1 thought you- were all for eigners, with bank accounts, but I see that I have been misinformed* It seems that you are more to be pitied and helped -than blamed. After* a little further conversation Bill shook hands with the little picket, asking him to accept '$5 with which to buy his family some nourishing food and wished him an^his fellow union ists a speedy Victorj^pla Bill returned without interviewing the foremaii and' :as "Ncr/1 the you' With" he' entered' the house with & thdughtful cast of cotin elder The assortment large Vote For President to he cast Nov. 8, 2904.
