STRIKE SPELLS WAR

Clarence S Darrow Makes SomeLively Assertions

Chief Attorney for Coal MinersJudges Tools and Servants of

llallroads Labor UnionsNot Perfect

Clarence S Darrow in an addressdelivered at Springfield Ill beforethe Young Mens Christian association on The Anthracite Coal Strikecompared the striking miners to thecolonial revolutionists denouncedfederal judges who enjoined laborunions as quite as much the servantsof the railroad companies as theirsection hands

Not a thing was done by theminers in Pennsylvania that was notdone by our revolutionary

declared Mr Darrow Inrevoutionary times dwellings wereburned property was confiscated and100000 persons were driven out oftheir country The refugees settledNova Scotia and those who drovethem out of this country then as n2were denounced as hoodlums nderers cutthroats assassins and olaws Yet they were the respectble people of those days and we aiproud to be known as descendants ofthese same revolutionists-

In a great strike as in war menstand by their friends and it willalways be so as long as men takesides on great public questions

After this strike threatened greatdanger President Roosevelt sent forBaer and the other railroad presidents in the coal region and theycame and lied to him They told himthey paid the miners 50 per centmore than they did and when thepresident asked them to arbitratethey said thore was nothing to ar-

bitrate and a kcd for more protection and more troops

The report of the commission is agreat victory for union labor Itshows that when the strike was entered into it was the fault of theemployers This whole strike wasbrought about because the employ

ers wished to destroy the union andback of the empoyers were the greatcorporations of the United States andall the railroads That is what ismeant by these illegal and outrageousInjunctions issued by tools of therailroad companies issuedwho are as much the servants of therailroads as their section men

When the union is destroyed itwill mean the end of labors hopesLabor unions are not perfect insti-tutions They are simply a meansto an end In some respects laborunions are narrow exclusive and monopolistic They are not ideal Inan ideal state there will be no la-

bor union there will be no boycotts-no strikes no wageearners and nowagepayers There will be a generalpartnership Capital cannot combineand operate together and ask laborto operate separately To ask the-

I labor union to dissolve is to ask onearmy to lay down its arms in the faceof another army

Mr Darrow devoted the greaterpart of his address to the subject ofviolence during the coal strike andthroughout his remarks he excori-ated President Baer and the opera-tors

The speaker said only 20 cases hadbeen proved where dynamite hadbeen used and that in no case didthe strikers or their sympathizersintend to kill anyone They simplywanted to scare nonunion men byexploding dynamite in front of thedoors of these men explained theminers counsel

Mr Darrow said the miners or theirsympathizers killed only three menwhile the coal and iron police andsoldiers killed three or four Noneof the homicides committed byminers or their sympathizers weredeliberate murders said Mr Darrow The operators tried to createthe impression that the minework-ers had committed 21 coldbloodedmurders and they so told PresidentRoosevelt but he could not discovermore than three cases

Mr Darrow said that the Lord bysome oversight had planted all

FRENCHCANADIAN FLAG

and PromJ e to BecomePopular Ensign

Recently there was unfurled andflung to the breeze at Montreal a flagnew to the present generation but notto those of bygone days Many per

who had occasion to pass alongNotre Dame street had reason to remark What is this

It was none other than the new flagof the FrenchCanadian people andwhich it is hoped will be adopted inperpetuity as the emblem of the racewhich first settled the country Forsome years past there has been agita-tion afoot to drop the tricolor ofFrance as it does not really denote anyother allegiance to France than language among FrenchCanadians

It therefore remained for a FrenchCanadian priest to start a movement

It LI the CreatIon of a Loyal

Prleela

FRENCHCANADIAN FLAGA Combination of the Union Jack and

Royal French Standardfor the adoption of a flag that wouldhave the effect of the tie that bindsamong his fellowcountrymen-

This priest is Abbe Filiatrault ofSt Judge in the district of St Hyacinthe and his idea of the flag whichwould best depict the feelings ofFrenchCanadians is shown in the ac-

companying illustrationHere is a flag which has for its basis

in compbsiton that of the DrapeauCarillon one of the flags of theFrench when they first landed in Can-ada j

In many ways it is a very simplebut at the same time a very imposingemblem It has for a ground a bluecolor and this is crossed with whitewhile in each of the four corners isplaced a white fleurdelis

Many are the questions thatbeen asked why the FrenchCanadiansdesire to break away from the Frenchflag This is best told in the language-of one of them

It is desirous on our part that weshould have a distinctive flag of ourown We honor the union jack whichis our protector but still we are ofFrench origin and cannot forget theemblem of our ancestors But we wishto have an emblem which will portray-an idea of what we have descendedfrom which the tricolor does not con

veyThe jack is the only flag which wecan look up to as a protector and itis not our desire to flaunt the tricolorin the face of the Englishspealdngpeople which in time of trouble between Great Britain and France wouldbe distasteful

OLD FORT ARMSTRONG

Historic Spot on Mississippi Savedfrom Oblivion by Daughters of

American Revolution

At the lower end of Rock Island inthe Mississippi was built in 1810 a fortwhich was named after Gen Armstrong then secretary of war Theencroachments of the Indians and theneed for a rallying place for the whitesettlers on the banks of the Mississippi made the fort a necessity Itwas built of hewn logs and wasstrongenough to resist any attempt of theIndians to capture it Happily there

FORT ARMSTRONG MONUMENTErected recently by Daughters of Amer

ican Revolution

never arose an occasion to use the fortfor warlike purposes and it becamebut a trading post There was signedhere in 1831 the treaty by which theSac and Fox Indians agreed to removeto the Iowa side of the river and leavethe village on the banks of Rock riverwhich they had occupied so long Thefort was 400 feet square and havingaccess to water and carrying a largesupply of food was equipped for a-

long siege There now remains nothing of it says the FourTrack NewsTwo cannon pointing down the riverhave been the only things to mark thespot where it stood till two years agowhen the Daughters of the AmericanRevolution erected a monument there

Mr Marker took the pig away fromthe rest of its kind when it was only-a few days old and had it brought-up on a bottle in a respectable Gordoncollie family The mamma collieafter a few days of deliberationadopted the pig as a member of herfamily and has worked earnestly tomake it a good obedient collie

Beau Brummel has raced aroundwith the dogs until he has learnedmany of their ways and he is aboutas good at driving cows as any of thecollies Mr Marker often sends Beaudown to the pasture at night to driveup the Marker family bossie and hesays Beau will scamper away to themeadow pick the Marker cow out ofa herd of 12 or 15 cows and drivethe animal home as well as any ofthe collies can do If the cow triesto go the wrong way Beau rushes infront of her squealing like a steamsiren and the bossie in dismay turnsabout and goes in the right directionIf squealing has no effect on thecow then Beau flies at her and bitesher ankles until the cow finally surrenders and consents to go peaceablyhome Mr Marker says that thecrowning sorrow of Beaus otherwisehappy existence lies in the fact thathe cannot bark like the collies canHe used to make frantic efforts inthis direction and always appearedinexpressibly shocked and grievedthat his best attempts only resulted indismal squeals

Did Any Woman Ever Have SuchLuck as This

iHY were you not at churchI on Easter day queried the1 young woman in blue I

jiSSS missed you and it was verynice of me too she add

ed since I knew that your hat wassure to make my own look like awoman who is old enough to

speak of herself as a girl ata debutante tea I hope that noth-ing was new coos ofwhom you thought so much is notgone already is she

She is now returned the youngwoman in gray and I never was soglad to see the last of my own motherinlaw as I was when she departed

Oh I see she would go out herself on Sunday when you had beensaving all through Lent to buy theloveliest hat in town No wonderthat you were enraged at nqt having-an opportunity to wear it

Nothing of the kind sighed theyoung woman in gray I was quite

wrongyour

Cook Was Wearing Madames Hat

willing that she should go to church-on Easter and

Oh you poor martyr you mean tosay that you had a boil on your noseor a cold in your head that day

I had not I never felt better inmy life You see it was this wayWe had no cook for two full weeksand I thought that an excellent opportunity to

To save money I knew isthat way with can nevereat anything that I cook so I cookvery little when

11 Why yes and the saving in myhousehold allowance is wonderful-To be sure Tom goes out to a res-taurant for his dinner nearly everyevening but then that

Does not affect your economy Ofcourse notl If he will be so extrav-agant

Not at all If I happen to behungry I can get a good meal atmammas without spending a cent Itell Tom that but for me he woulddie in the poorhouse

And what does he sayOh the usual thing that he will

be lucky if he escapes it as it isI suppose that must be a joke as Idont understand it Well he sentthe new cook home from the intelligence office one day and I was halfsorry for I had picked out my hatand was saving for it However shewas a fine cook so I decided to givesome little dinners while I had her

And you easily saved the moneyYees I saved it the

day I went out to buy that hat Imet my sister who was on her wayto buy some summer gowns andasked me to go with her Now youknow it is not human to allow yourown younger sister to buy thingswhich she thinks you cant afford In-

consequence I soon had several gowns-I didnt needand a deficit in my hat

Easter less than a week

offOh well your husband could addwhat you needed

Hm knowing that hecould just as well give me the wholeas a part I spent the rest of toemoney

Of course you did Any womanYes I stopped at the milliners-

on the way home to make sure thatthe hat was still there Then I ordered an especially good dinner andwaited until the coffee came in tomake my request

That was wise forI thought so but I was mistaken

When the cook brought in the coffeeshe told me that she must have herwages raised or leave at once Iwould have let her go but Tom saidthat the woman who could cook adinner like that deserved to have herwages raised and he would do it

Oh my goodness andExactly He said he couldnt af

ford the hat because we had to payAnnie more money And notie of mypathetic reminders of my savings hadany effect a wonder that Ididnt feel able to go to church onEaster

Mercy noWhen the cook asked for a

I gave it to her knowingThat you could punish Tom by

giving him very little dinnerNo I decided we would dine at

mammas I knew she would inquire the cause of my sadness andI wanted him to hear my reply

Thinking you could shame himintogiving you the hat after all

Yes as I was at themirror pinning on my old hat thecook went out I glanced out of thewindow and saw that she was wearing the hat I had selected at themilliners

STRONG MEN FOILED

Cant Lift Tiny Girl Who Possesses-

a Strange Power

Stella Lftindelins Can Increase HerWeight by Mind Resistance Is

Able Also to Overcome theLaw of Gravitation

Stella Lundelius the 12yearolddaughter of A Lundelius a photographer of Port Jervis N Y possessesthe remarkable faculty of being able

the apparent weight of herbody This power was first noticed

by her father when she was a childjust able to stand alone Mr Lundeliusobserved that under certain condi-tions the exertions required to lifther was greater than under ordinarycircumstances

Since then the child has been thesubject of much experiment by persons desirous of testing her allegedpower By simply placing her hand incontact with persons who attempt thelifting she apparently brings into playsome mysterious force which neutralizes the uplifting pressure he brings tobear and in spite of his utmost effortsher feet remain on the floor as thoughfastened there by clamps

In one experiment tried the liftingpower of several men was exerted invain to lift the child The effect wasasif the weight of her slender little bodyhad been multiplied many times i

Benjamin F La Rue of Patersonsuffered lame arms for three days afterhis vain efforts to lift the girl

No public exhibition of the childspowers has been permitted exceptrrecently at Kingston by Dr C 0 Sahlerwho desiring to study the case in-duced Mrs Lundelius to visit his

In the presence of 150 per-sons Stella gave an exhibition whichastonished the spectators She

the combined strength of two mento raise her and when another wasadded to the number they were stillpowerless

She appeared to make no resistancebut by placing her hand on one of themen all their efforts were in vain Oneman with a lifting capacity of 300pounds could not budge her from the

floor This power does not always ex-

ert itselfDr Sahler in giving a theory saidStellas power consists in bringing

her will or nerve force into harmonywith that of the person who attemptsto raise her and thus destroying his in-dividuality When it is impossible tobring about such a unison of vibrationthe other person does not lose his in-

dividuality and his natural strength-is not overcome

One feature of this little girlspower is her ability to overcome

the law of gravitation to such an ex-

tent as to make it easy for any personto remove heavy articles of furnitureHer mother said this power was acci-

dentally discovered in her attempt toshove an upright piano about theroom Unable to budge it herself sheplayfully asked Stella to place herhand upon the instrument She didso and Mrs Lundelius to her astonishjment was able to push the piano aboutwithout effort The same courseadopted it is declared with a largebookcase filled with books and withsimilar success

In addition to the describedStella is said to be possessed of a high

and it is claimed relievesaches and pains bypassing her liandj

over the affected part Her fattier suf-fered from congested nerves so that hecould not raise his foot from the floorSix Port Jervis doctors failed to giverelief and a physician from New Yorkcity relieved the pain only givingmercury until as Mr Lundelius sayshe was a walking thermometer Hislittle daughter rubbed his side a fewtimes and he was able to raise his footfrom the floor four inches and three orfour treatments are said to havewrought a cure
