The end of the telegraphers’ strike sends 14,000 operators back to work under unimproved conditions. Thir- teen weeks’ siege has brought no material victory. There is no doubt that the opera- tors entered on the strike in a burst of enthusiasm. They decided con- trary to the repeated advice of their leaders. They failed to appreciate and consider the broad public interests that their action would derange and damage, and possibly antagonize. Furthermore, they were indifferently prepared. A strike is war, and in war the aggressor may assume that God is on the side of the big battalions. The reality of a grievance does not assure victory. This would have been im- pressed on the operators had they been cool enough to trust their leaders. It is not necessary that they should bow to an autocrat, or close their eyes to the treachery that is not unknown to labor leaders. It was simply necessary that they exer- cise foresight and yield to discipline. The lesson of the strike should be that of discipline. Discipline plus foresight will enforce respect from employers and secure the public confidence and sympathy that are required to make a strike effectual. It is now up to the companies to recognize their responsibilities both to the operators and to the public: It is for them to adopt whatever measures are necessary to conserve public interest, peace and good feel- ing. Theend of the strike is not the settlement of the trouble that caused the strike; it remains for the telegraph companies to co-oper- ate with their employes in equitable arrangement of all differences. This is primarily a duty that the companies owe to the public. WILL REMAIN SOME TIME Troops at Cheyenne Agency to Establish Winter Quarters. Omaha, Nov. ).—A report received at the headquarters of the department of the Missourl from Major Sibley, commanding the troops at the Chey- enne agency in South Dakota, states that preparations will at once be made for the troops who have been ment to the reservation to establish winter quarters. The army officials hore take this to mean that Major Sib- ley considers the recent trouble with the renegade Wtes of sufficlent impor- tance to require the presence on the reservation of troops for some time to come. He states that Red:Cap, the chief who led the recent revolt, has agreed with a number of other lead- ers to send his children to the agency school. : The question of sending children elghty miles to the agency school, separating them from their parents, Wwas the iminediate cause of the pres- ent trouble and the decision to ac- cede to the demands of Indian Agent Downs In this matter is expected to settle the trouble for the present. OTHERS PLEADED GUILTY. Stafford Company Fighting Govern- ment Charges, Chicago, Nov. .—Pleas of not guilty were entered befors Judge Lan- dis in the United States dlstrict court by the E. H. Stafford Manufacturing eompany, E. H. Stafford, the com- pany’s president; E. M. Stafford, treas- urer, and Eldred G. Bentley, a direc- tor, all of whom have been indicted on charges of violating the Sherman anti-trust law. The Stafford company is the omly eoncern fighting the charges brought By United States District Attorney Bims against the furniture trust. All other companies alleged to have been a_party 1o the trust pleaded guilty and submitted to finés atter a plea for meroy. The trust was also dissolved by an order by Judge Landis restrain- ing the convicted concerns from any further trust agreements. The trial will commence in January. = True Business Instinct. EAQ was a mighty bright negro be- longing to a family in Columbia, Tenn. He had been a faithful servant for many years, and by saving and care fully Investing his wages he had be- lled the usual thriftlessness attributed with more or less justice to the ma Jjority of his race. His master was an attorney, and bne morning before he had arisen the lawyer was called upon by Ed, who sald: “Say, boss, Ah wants yo' ter draw me up a mawkgidge.” “A mortgage?” asked his master. *What do you want a mortgage for?” “Well, Ah’s done lent Un¢’ Lisha five lollahs, an’ Ah wants a mawkgidge on Ms cow an’ caff.” “For how long have you lent the money " “Fo’ oue monf.” “One month! Why, the interest on that amount for that tinie wouldn’t pay for the paper a mortgage I8 writ- ten on.” “Boss,” sald Ed, scratching his head, “Ah ain’t carin’ nuffin’ fo’ dat intrust. Ah jes’ wants dat niggah’s cow an’ caff.”"—Judge. No Place For Him Here. “Your honor,” sald a prosecuting at- torney in a backwoods court, “the prisoner at the bar is charged with killing one of the most exemplary citi- rens of this -county. Thomas Jones, your honor, was In every respect a model man. He was a member of the church; he was never known to bet on dorses, play poker,.drink whisky or use tobacco. He"— “Hold on a minute,” said the judge. “You say he never bet on a horse?” “That’s what I said, your honor.” “Never was known to play a game?” “Never, your honor.” “And he never drank whisky?” “Never drank a drop in his life.” “And he didn’t chew tobacco?” “Never took a chew In his life.” “Well, then,” sald the judge, “I don’t vee what he wanted to live for. There wasn’t anything in life for him, and I don’t see why he ain’t about as well off dead as alive. Release the prisoner, Mr, Sheriff, and call the next case.”— Nashville American. A Too Busy Li The messenger from Mars surveyed the multitude which had gathered to meet him with undisguised interest. Nor did he hesitate to propound such Inquiries as his curiosity prompted. “Where do you all live?’ he asked, speaking generally. “I live in the future,” said a young man good humoredly. “And I in the past” said an old man. “How odd! And does none of you live in the present?”’ There was an awkward silence. “Pardon me,” sald the Martian hasti- ly; “perhaps I press my questions too closely.” At this a voice from the outskirts of the crowd spoke up, saying, “We have not yet learned to live in the present without interruption of business, don’t you know.”—Puck. Natural Toothbrushes. ~ Natlves of Somaliland have the whit- est and best teeth of any people in the world, and the reason is not far to seek. Whenever they are idle they may be fornd rubbing their teeth with smal pieces of wood—little twigs which are covered with a soft bark and which ravels out into bristles. This practice prevents the teeth decaying and of course keeps them in excellent condi- tion. Just as one might pick a wild flower in the country so the Somall native picks his toothbrush. They are never without their small twigs. Tooth- brushes as we know them are un- known in Somaliland. Their : own methods are undoubtedly the healthi- est and certainly the cheapest, and it is a matter for wonder that we do not take a leaf out of their book in this re- spect.—Dundee Advertiser. A Man's Necktle. Ever since a reglment of Croatian soldiers marched into Paris three cen- turies ago with their necks swathed in silk, and Louis XIV., delighted at thelr appearance, decided to adopt the fashion himself, the cravat in its vari- ous changing forms has played an im- portant part in the attire of men. And 8o reliable is it supposed to be as an index to its wearer’s personal charac- teristics that Buffon, the French sa- vant, was once led to remark, “The cra- vat makes the man.” According to Hoyle.

Detsoh in the Ilatter's home, where Ferree boarded, was In- quired Into by the coroner and at the conclusion of the inquest Detsch was committed to jaill to awalt the actlon of the grand jury. The affair is at- tracting considerable attention be- cause of several unusual features. Po- lice, attracted by the shooting, found Ferree lying in the hallway outside the bedroom occupled by Detsch and hs wife. Detsch claimed he mistook Ferree for a burglar and hearing him fumbling at the doorknob shot through the door without investigating. The police were apparently satisfled with the explanation, but in searching Fer- ree's effects they found many ewdear- ing letters written by Mrs. Detsch to Ferree. When confronted with the letters Mra. Detsch confessed her re- lations with the boarder and sald her husband had learned of her conduot. Detach, however, stoutly maintains that he mistook Ferree for a burglar and that he did not know that there bhad been anything wrong between his wife and Ferree. The police are working on the theory that Detsch, Who is & traveling salesman, learning of his- wife’s conduct, compelled her to lure Ferree to her room and that Detach shot him as he was about to open the door., Trade Conditions Irregular, New York, Nov. )).—Dispatches to Dun’s Trade Review indicate that trade conditions are irregular, con- flicting reports being received from different parts of the country. It is certain that the financlal stringency is having a depressing effect, but less severe in some sections than others. FAREWELL TO TAFT. Brilliant Reception at Manila Largely Attended. Manila, Nov. Y.~—A brilliant farewell reception was given to Secretary Taft at the residence of Governor General Smith. It was characterized by the extreme democracy, representatives ot nearly every class of residents of Ma- nila being present. Secretary Taft and wife were greeted practically by every one in attendance. The secretary’s last day in Manila was marked by many busy features. He received and conferred with many prominent Filipinos, heads of bu- Teaus, members of committees, busi- ness men and delegations from varl- ous provinces and cities. He told one delegation, which was petitioning for free trade on sugar and tobacco, to send representative men as delegates to Washington to help the fight in con- gress to secure tariff concessions. PREFERS TO STAY IN JAIL Woman Paroled to Relatives Objects to Court’s Action, Chicago, Nov. .—“Take me back to, jall,” pleaded Miss Rose Haines after answering “guilty” to two charges of grand larceny in Judge Gibbons’ court when told that she had been paroled to relatives in Mellen, Wis. “I have a good many friends in the county jail and it is not such a bad place. 1 can have a pretty good time there and I would rather serve a jail sentence and have the whole thing over with than be indebted to my rela- tives. I am willing to take my pun- ishment and “can take care of myself when released. My relatives would not even bring me a clean shirtwaist while I was in jail.” Miss Haines was left $40,000 by her father at his death, but lost the money in speculation on the open board of trade.

It does not seem that woman have more than a fair share of - the aches and pains that afflict humanity; tney must “keep up,” must attend to duties in spite of constantly aching backs, or headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down pains; they must stoop over, when to stoop means torture. They must walk and bend and work with racking pains and many aches from kidney ills. Kidneys cause more suffering than any other organ of the body. Keep the kidneys well and health is easily maintained. Read of a remedy for kidneys only that helps and cures the kidneys and is endorsed ‘by people you know. Mrs. J. C. Litres, living at 602 American Ave.; Bemidji,Minn., says: “I am recommending Doan.s Kid- ney Pills in the hopes that “some suffering from Kidney trouble may derive benefit from my testimonial. For some time I was feeling quite miserable, suffering {rom kidney compiaint. I noticed that my kid- neys were disordered and at last decided to try Doan’s Kidney. Pills.
