Bulletins Sent Out by Machinists Say Road Is In Bad Shape Engines Go ing to Pieces Boilermakers Can Hold Out Indefinitely. "The rolling stock of the Union Pa cific lias suffered from the strike of the bollermakors and machinists, not withstanding the assertion of Presi dent Burt that the strike has not af fected the road In the least." Tills Is a statement of a Portland member of the International Association of Ma chinists, the organization which Is conducting the strike In Cheyenne and Omaha. "Not only Is the rolling stock In poor condition," said this man, "but the trains are constantly behind time, and every branch of the road has been demoralized through the strike." The strike was begun some eight months ago. The bollermakors were the first to walk out on the refusal of the company to grant higher pay with shorter hours. Then the machinists, who have an association of their own, were put on piece work, and as this was not satisfactory to the union they! Joined forces with the bollermakers. "Mr. Burt is quoted ns saying that piece work Is in successful opera tion," said the Portland machinist. "In answer to this I can say that the men doing piece work In his shops nre not machinists, for the majority never saw the Inside of a shop before they wont to work In the place of the strikers. The skilled machinists of the road are now composed of musi cians, shoemakers and watchmakers who were not able to make a living at their own trade and were easily In duced to work in the Union Pacific shops. "Mr. Burt also says that everything Is running smoothly. If leaky boilers and broken-down engines can be call ed smooth running that statement Is true, but If the Union Pacific Insists on piece work much .longer, the road will be so smooth that If It were not for the disabled engines, you could see from one end of the road to the other. The men are determined to stay out Indefinitely, and they can do so, lor they are being supported by the other members of the association all over the. country. The strike Is be ing well conducted. Here is one of the dally bulletins sent out by Tom Wilson, the vice-president of the In ternational Association of Machinists, his headquarters are now In Omaha." The machinist produced from an In Bide pocket a typewritten bulletin at Omaha, January 29. Evidently the members of the association all along the line of the Union Pacific are bust ly watching the condition of affairs while the strike is on. One of the lo cal reports reads as follows: "Rawlins reports that he 1G60 broke a main rod strap and all the passenger trains are from two to eight hours late. The yards are blocked again, and there Is no power here fit to tun on the road. We had a pretty good snow storm last night. About six Inches of snow fell and if the wind comes up a little It will put rlrs. Emmons, saved fro an operation for Ovaritis, tells how she was cured by Lydia G. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. " I am so pleased with the results I obtained from Lyrtiiv IS. I'inlchani's Vegetable Conpound that I feel it a duty and a privilege to write you about it. " I suffered for over fivo years with ovarian troubles, causing an un pleasant discharge, a great weakness, and at times a falntness would come over me which no amount of medicine, diet, or exercise seemed to correct. Your Vegetable Compound found the weak spot, however, within a few weeks and saved mo from an operation all my troubles had dis appeared, and I found myself once more healthy and well. Words fail to describe the real, true grateful feeling that is in my heart, and 1 want to tell every sick und suffering sister. Don't dally with medicines you know noth ing about, but take Lydia 13.

I "Here Is another report from Chey enne," and the machinist took a care fully folded sheet from his pocket. This was also dated January 29, and read as follows: "Cheyenne reports that the 15U knocked out a cylinder head yester day.

Devlin falls to see why it is not possible for Pendleton clgarmak- jers to accomplish the feat of supply ing uie greater part oi me locai ue mand, instead of only a small part of It as Is now the case. He declares that they can make just as good cigars here as anywhere: furthermore, that they actually do now, and confidentally predicts that the proportion of Pendleton-made goods consumed hero will continue to Increase In the present rapid ratio until only a small fraction of the ci gars smoked here will be bought any where else. He himself will make 130,ono cigars the coming season, and He Is largely influenced to do so by the steady and rapidly Increasing sales In the city of the brands of cl gars he is now making. He estimates that the city consumes 1,500,000 cigars per year would make a wnger to that effect If there was any system by which the exact number could bp ascertained. If even the larger part of this number not all were made here, 10 skilled and rapid workmen would be employed to do the work, who would receive from $18 to $30 per week each. He gives some interesting informa tlon regarding the manufacture of ci gars. For instance, the duty on the Sumatra wrappers which are every where used, is $1.86 per pound, and the manufacturer pays from $3.60 to $4.25 per pound for It. The duty on the Havana filler, which all manu facturers also use, is 35 cents per pound. All that is necessary for the local dealers to do to prove to the consumer that the local manufacturer can make just as gOod cigars as are imported is to keep both products side by side ready at all times for comparison and contrast at the same price. THE ST. BERNARD. How the Breed Was Discovered to Americans. Forty years ago the St. Bernard dog was baldly more than a myth to most Americans. In Sunday school literature he figured occasionally, to the joy of dog-loving children, but the real live hero of Alpine fame they would not have recoginzed had they seen him. Comparatively few of our country men visited Europe in .those days; our leisure class was limited and a Journey abroad meant as long a stay as possible In the great cities, among the treasures of art. St, Bernards were rare upon the great highways of travel. Their, work was on the bleak mountain passes, protecting poor wayfarers from the fury of the ele ments, and far away from the beaten track of foreign tourists. Travelers who crossed into Italy by way of Tete Noire pass and saw beau tiful young pups there, were some times tempted Into buying them, but the risks of transportation were great and very few of them crossed the At lantic. Prior to the early '70s most of the Importations went to New York slate, and the first fine collection, or kennel, of them known, belonged to Col. Parker of Albany. Soon after the era of dog shows opened the eyes of the general public to the wonderful beauty, extraordinary size and charming character of this breed, and then the St. Bernard bounded Into popularity and as Amer ican dollars ever fly fast after beauty and fashion, many thousands were ex changed for beautiful specimens of the "Alpine mastiff."

Sent to Boys' and Girt' Home at 9 Shipped West to Be Adopted Chance Meeting of Two Toughs, Afterwards Governor. One of the most central figures In the great Northwest today Is John G. Brady, governor of Alaska, says a Se attle dispatch. While It is not con' erally known, nevertheless Governor Brady Is a living example of a man who has raised himself, literally, "from the depths." There ts a story connected with his life- that almost "passeth understanding." It goes to show what one can do In this free America, and the story of John Brady's life should be an incen tive to every young man living In the states. John Brady was born In a squalid tenement house In New York city. His parents wore Irish and his father, according to the story thnt fell from Ms lips, "a drunkard. His mother was compelled to take in washing to support the family. Almost from a babe In swaddling clothes Brady roamsd the streets and docks of low er New York. He grew Into the typl cnl tough Gotham kid. A bit of devil try alone was responsible for his ultl mate honorable and upright life. When about 9 years old, Brhdy was (Slight red-handed In some childish prank and sent to Raymond Island, a place for boys, situated In the East River, a short distance from Blnck well's Island, upon which Is located one of the most famous prisons of modern times. Brady remained there but a short time. One day a delega tion of Indies and gentlemen retire- Sfntlng the Children's Aid Society of New York City, cnliod at the island Institution, nnd, after the inmates had all been lined up, the question was asked, "How many of you would like to go West and enter good homes? ' This children's aid society has since grown to be of world-wide fnme. At that time, however, It was practically unknown. Altogether, 14 children re sponded to the question, Brndy among tho number. In this little band that was sent West was a youngster by the name of Burke William H. Burke. Ho had been the childish playmate of Brady. Together they had roamed at will among tho down town dives of the wickedest city in the world. Together they hud been sent to Raymond Island. Together they went West. Brady was put oft at lniliauapolls, lnd., and there he said farewell to his little friend- Burke was destined to reach some point In Iowa. Tho lads, with tears in their eyes, promis ed faithfully to keep track of each other, but ub neither could write thoy drifted apart, and both were walking rapidly toward man's allotted thrco score and ten beforo they Baw each other again Brady was adopted by a lawyer named Green, who owned a farm u short distance out of Indianapolis. The small New Yorker was put to work upon the farm. He gradually became known as "Jack Green," and he Is still familiarly spoken of by that namo among his Indiana friends, To make a long but Interesting story short, Brndy gradually acquired some education, at last graduating from the graded schools of Indianapo lis. He later, and by ills own Indi vidual efforts, graduated from Yale. Ho then took a course in a theologi cal seminary, and some 25 years ago bade farewell to civilization and went to Alaska, locating in Sitka a few years later, and there ho has lived ever slnco. Well, last fall, when John G. Bra dy, then, as now, governor of Alaska, boarded a train In St. Paul for New York, he met for the first time In 50 years, William H. Burke. "Why, Brady, how aro you?" said Burke; and then, after the greetings were made, ho continued: " But where are you going?" "To New York," replied Brady, The Children's Aid Society has asked me to go back thero and tell of my success since I started In life through its aid." "Is that so, 'said Burke. "What success have you had?" "Why," said Brady, with Just a bit of nrlde. "1 am governor of Alaska." Burke looked at him a moment and then smiled. "It's strange, Isn't it," ho said slow ly, "how fortune smiles on some men, So you're governor of Alaska. Well, you havn't got me beat very far During the early 90's, while the Chi cago World's Fair was on, I was gov ernor of North Dakota." And then the two men, starting as New York waifs, and who through their own personal efforts had risen to be governors of two great com monwealths, shook hands all over again.

The first years of our life are the most important in our. existence. That is the time to build the foundation for sturdy manhood in the future. In fancy is, therefore, the most vital period for proper nourish ing. A baby secures the best possible nourishment from a healthy mother, but unfortu nately very few mothers can nurse their children. What, then, is the next best food ? Cow's milk should not be solely depended upon for it lacks a proper amount of what a child needs most cell building substance. Moreover, it is said by authorities on the subject, that the frequent hand lingsuch milkundergocs.from the cow to the time it is fed to a child, robs it of much of its original value. Its quality varies and its grades are nu merous; the stomach of an infant is much too delicate to make up such defects in its food supply. Scott's Emulsion simplifies the food problem for children and counteracts these defects. The artificial foods that are so largely used very rarely contain milk, hence they im perfectly nourish the child. Even a small amount of Scott's Emulsion, one-fourth to a half teaspoon! ul.in the child's bottle seems to be of special value in adding a very important element to the food. Its bene ficial results are quickly seen Scott's Emulsion is based on this true food principle. It provides nourishment for a child in the easiest, quickest and most palatable form. No baby is too young, no stomach too delicate to receive and re tain Scott's Emulsion. Even a few drops in a child's milk seems to provide considerable nourishment that cannot be otherwise secured except in a mother's milk. If a mother whose milk is not furnishing a child with proper nourishment will her self use Scott's Emulsion it will greatly improve the qual ity of the milk. It benefits the mother as well as the child. A child of any age will be benefitted by Scott's Emulsion, It furnishes the means to meet and overcome the strain of growing. Being prepared for easy digestion Scott's Emul sion docs not tax the stomach or disturb the digestive organs of children. Its great value as a child's food comes from the nourish ment it gives, the ease with which it enters the system, the quickness with which it brings about a change for the better and the permanency of its benefits. The child who is not doing as well as it should needs Scott's Emulsion. We'll send you at sample free upou request. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl St., New York.
