The 150 strikers feel certain that "they won't lose even if they don't win." "I mean, you know," a young officer of local 40 explained, "lhat we positively shan't go back to work, and nobody can make us, unless our union is recognized. So long as we stay out the men will stay out, too. Whatever happens the Typothetae will lose the services of all the real experienced binders, men and girls, there are in town." "And we girls have little to lose by staying out. We've got lots of friends. Some of us have taken places in stores and offices already, some have gone over to Minneapolis to work in bind eries there. A Minneapolis bindery proprietor came after us this week, and he was only too glad to hire first class, experienced girls. A few weeks ago he wouldn't have got the chance. "I think we'll win, too. We're all out, to a girl. Not one has left the ranks. And the men are just as loyal. I haven't heard, either, that the St. Paul binderies are getting anybody in our places except half a dozen little girls without experience." Yesterday and the day before, Good Friday and Holy Thursday, the bind ery girls did not dance at Federation hall. Some of them met in the "big" hall and sang hymns with piano ac companiment. This week, however, now that Lent has passed, informal hops from 7 a. m. to 6 p. m. will re ward the pickets when off duty. LOYAL LEGION IS TO HOLD STATED MEETING Capt. W. H.

Monfort Is Sinking Fast. A momentary return to conscious ness was the only favorable indica tion within the past twenty-four hours THE ST. PAUL GLOBE. SUNDAY. APRIL 3. 1904. in the condition of Col. Charles J. Monfort, who lies in a dying condition in his rooms in his hotel, the Windsor. When Mrs. J. K. Keyes, of Oneonta, N. V., came into the room last evening and spoke to the dying man, he opened his eyes, looked at his sister, murmur ed "Jennie" and sank back into the comatose condition in which he has been most of the time since stricken with apoplexy about noon Thursday. The condition of the patient remains without hope, his physicians saying that death is liable to occur at any time. HUMANE SOCIETY REPORTS WORK DONE Agents Were Busy About the City Dur ing the Month of March. Homes were found for two cats by the St. Paul Humane society last month. But, as reported yesterday at a monthly meeting, the society killed nine cats and dogs. It also shot one cow and two horses, slew ten calves and ordered the destruction of fifteen cows. The society also put blankets on twenty horses,, bought shoes for five horses, gave seven horses a vacation, Becured a physician for one child, pro vided a home for another child, put a third child in a children's institution and entrusted a fourth child to its rel atives. Meals were obtained for sixty five cows and horses at the stock yards, South St. Paul. One man was sent to jail for starving 1 his horse. Notice was again given that any boy who loves animals and $10 gold pieces can acquire one of the coins by telling the society "on" some other boy who lias killed a song bird. Harrington Not With "Moochers." John Harrington objects seriously to being classed with the "moocher" gang. "It was a mistake," he said, "to class me with those fellows, for I have nothing to do with them. I am doing all In my power to do what is right, ana believe that the people who are familiar with my course for the last year and a half will say that I am not a 'moocher' in any sense. A fellow ought to be given a chance to work up a good reputation when he is trying his best to do so." Blngapore Club to Perform.
