A False Charge. :1 charge often made by the profes- s Lonal labor agitators that upon issues between the workingmen and employ- ing corporations the0 courts always side with the corporations, has been dis- proved many. times, and a new illlus- tration to the contrary has been fur- nished by a Chicago Court in which a. runaway conductor, blacklisted by the Northwestern Railway cOmpany for participation in the Putnam strike, has been awarded damages to the amount Of $21,166.33. The facts brought out in the course of the trial, which were to the ef- fect that the plaintiff was always dis- charged without cause or explanation. shortly after Obtaining a new job, con- vinced the jury that he had been black- listed by the Northwestern Company, and that he was being persistently hounded out Of any means of earning a Living for himself and his family. If this verdict is sustained by the court Of last resort, to which it is cer- tain to be appealed, the blacklisting of men who engage in strikes will go the way of the boycott, which has been de- cided by the courts to be unlawful. A ‘ New Dangers From Electricity. _> ‘In the Old days the only way a man could be killed by at electric shock was 0 get in the way of a bolt of lightning from a thunder cloud, and the deaths from this cause were few and far be- tween. ' With the general applicatlon of artificial electricity as an agent of, light, heat and motive power the fatali? ties have been many times multiplied, and many persons are getting very nervous over the new and unexpected illustrations of the deadly nature of the ele‘ric current. People are in danger of being’suddenly killed by unlocked for contact with broken wires, and the latestfatalit‘y has demonstrated that it is not safe any more to carry 1111 um- . b1 elld. in a rain-storm if the staff hap- pens to be a steel one. - I , The 1e1.ent fatality on a. principal Street, in one of our larger cities due to :A: ~... the contact of a steel umbrella staff with an are light suspended above the sidewalk, not only revealed a new danger from electricity-but one over which the authorities have no proper control. ’ Arc lights are suspended at so y place agreed upon between a prop- erty-owner'or lessee and the electric light company with'overhead wires or underground conduits in the district. Permits are not asked. no rules as to the height of the lights above the road 01- footway are observed or enforced, and so far as the public is aware, no ef- fective precautions are used to prevent the diversion of thedeadly current to the nearest open conductor, which may be a metal awning post with which any chance passerby is liable to come in contact. _ No one would advotate a return to tallow clips for light or to the horse ears for transit, but humanity is enti- tled to some protection from the (lan- gers of contact‘ with a deadly electric . ' 1 current, and it is the duty of the au- thorities to furnish this protection. Dangerous arc lights should be out of the reach of the ferules of the umbrel- las carried on a rainy day 01' night, and it is the business of the city au- thorities to see that they are suspended at a safe height. are defective on this point new ordin— ances should be passed giving the au- thorities full power to regulate this matter in the interest of the public safetyfand requiring them under 11 Electricity is a very useful force, but it is a very dangerous one as well, and its use should only be permitted under such conditions as will reduce this danger to the minimum. There should ' ,be no more unexpected electrocutions as a penalty for carrying an umbrella on a rainy day. AA; FEMININE CHAT. The weather is getting in fine foot- ball condition. To lose a man’s faith, is infinitely worse than losing his love. Long, accordion-plaited silk wraps are worn at evening functions. The bigger hands a man has the more he runs to light-colored gloves. With Thanksgiving less than a week oli’, we must feel that winter is really with us, and a little snow squall inten- sifies the felling. Yale and Princeton colors abound in New York and Harvard and University of Pennsylvania ones in Philadelphia. Some of the new neckwear for wom- en shows broad stripes in every possi- ble color contrast. The scarcity of flowers and floral deco- rations (other than hot house products) makes the possession of a few of these bright but transient- gems all the more precious in this dismal, bleak and sun- less month. Directly a woman falls in love she sees how silly it has been heretofore to try and argue others out of it. If a woman rouges iuartistically and conspicuously she mustn’t feel hurt if another one stares hard at her. . It is the easiest thing in the world to criticise the faults Of others, but the most difficult} to discover our own. A Chrysanthemum wedding is un- doubtedly one of the most artistic func- tions of the season. To realize howl. genuinely weak we are, observe the tyranny that a 10- months-Old baby can exercise over a w hOle roomful of adults ‘ ' ' fthere is any thing that makes a we: man Igenuinely.angry it is torhave any one doubt her ability to cook; that is, if she is a real woman. To lie awake and cough all night is hardly conducive to a joyous feeling of rest in the morning, but it gives one lots of opportunity to think. The array of white plumes seen on the bats of New York women leads one to suppose that they have no scruples about showing the white feather. » l The fatigue that comes from honest labor has something satisfying in it, but that which accrues from a. foolish f. itte1ing of time is almost equal to a. severe illness. _ " 'Ring once 101 a page” is the an- nouncement in certain swell hotels, but by the number and variety that appear in response to the call it would seem that a whole book were on tap. One single brilliant petticoat is not dubbed enough by the fashionable wo- men of to-day. She must wear at least two, which. with the gay silken lining of hc1. gown, makes a very fetching kaleidoscope of color on a. rainy day.
