among the mlllworkers of Lowell. W.
D. Haywood, who came from the West
to organise the Lawrence strike, is
now In command at Lowell. Poles and
Portuguese are the majority of the
mlllworkers at Lowell. They are par
ading the streets of Lowell, throwing
tones through the window ol shops
and of the mills. The L W. W. organ
isers are very active In New England,
especially in the mill district. That
their methods are not -arenerally ap
proved Is evidenced by the fact that
several of them were made the target
for bad eggs at Clinton thla week. One
especially ancient egg struck W. J.

The problem of the high cost of liv
ing is receiving attention at the hands
of "the Housewives" League of New
Tork, and one solution of it, they
think, is the establishment of more
city markets. As a practical demon
stration of their belief they invited
the housewives of New Tork to meet
them at Washington Market, ' which is
Peters, who recently opened a little
market for the poor uptown, was there.
Then there was Mrs. Charles D. Hirst,
chairman of the Food Sanitation Com
mittee of the State Federation of Wo
men's Clubs, and there was Mrs.
Charles E. Griffin, of the Housewives'
League, who arranged the market-day
demonstration, and Mrs. Julian Heath,
president of the league, and Mrs. Ar
thur Randolph Green, secretary.
March 14 the King and Queen of
Italy were driving along the Corso
Umberto, I to me, on their way to the
Pantheon, when an anarchist named
Antonio Talba fired several shots at
them. Major Giovanni Lang, the com
mander of the King's bodyguard, saw
the assassin aim his revolver at the
King and Interposed his body so that
he received the bullet Intended for
the King. He was the only person
wounded. When news of the attack
reached the people, the swarmed to
the Quirlnal Palace, shouting "Long

Ihe miners are not serious. They re

the operators to recognize the union.
The operators are well fixed for the
strike, the reserves of coal being large,
and the miners are well prepared, as
the American miners, as a rule, own
their own homes, while the Poles and
other foreigners. If they live In hovels,
have money in the bank.
While the recent coal strike was in
progress in Great Britain, every effort
was made by manufacturers, railroads
and others using large quantities of

serve, Constructs My Roads.
ALBANT, Or.. April 13. (Special.)
Forest Supervisor Nelson F. McDuff of
this city, who has charge of the Santi
am National Forest, during- the past
year has built many miles of trail in
the mountains of the Cascade range,
east of Albany, and several mors miles
will be constructed during the coming

One pectlon of the trail built last

With the Fish Lake-Squaw Mountain
trail, thus saving a day in travel and
much money, formerly spent in thor
oughly patroling a district containing:
several hundred million feet of timber.
Another section of trail constructed up
Canyon Creek, aids greatly in protect
ing the-timber area, and was butjt at
a cost of S200 a mile.
A trail two miles long which is be
ing built between Detroit and Quarts
vllle, will be the only direct route be
tween those two towns and will save
a day's travel between them.
Sixty miles of telephone line will be
constructed this Summer "before the
fire season begins and will aid ma
terially in the protection of about 9.
000,000,000 feet of Government timber,
in addition to much private timber.
These lines will be built to Fish Lake.
Crescent Mountain, Coffin Mountain
and Elk Lake.
