MY SHRINK. . There's a place of -regal beauty Where the sunbeams never die, . Where tne roses, mount the trellis Of the pillars to the sky. There flow crystal streams and fountains Where the whitest lilies grow, 'TIs my home my sacred temple On this common earth below. This vain world may laud Its Ophir With its diadems of gold, Yet the glory of my dwelling Human tongue. hath never told. Love hath bullded its foundation. While Its walls are all aglow With that Peace which crowns the lilies Where perennlnl waters flow. A fair spirit dwells within it With a chaplet on her brow; She uplifts a golden scepter As before her will I bow. Her dear Hps have touched lilies . And. hor cheeks have caught the glow. Of the roBes on the trellis ; Whore the softeBt zephyrs blow. When my soul Is torn and bleeding With the fierceness of life's fray And I turn my weary footBteps To my Bacred shrine to pray,- Thore my gracious queen' awaits me With her heart and soul aglow. Bearing lilies wet with tear drops ' From the crystal fountain s flow. S. L. : . Goode. Guard has a good sale every evening, and when anything of speo ial interest occours like last night, the sales are only limited by the number of papers available for that purpose, one newsboy alone selling one hundred copies. Not until this fall was any cftort made to sell a local paper on the streets, circulation being confined entirely to regular home subscribers. The shooting of Prosecutor Heney will probably have the effect of causing the graft prosecution in San Francisco pushed more relentlessly than ever. Public sentiment will demand the wiping out of the gang of corruptionistst and interest in the prosecution, which has waned of late, will be renewed by the cold-blooded deed c this ex-convict, who was exposed while try ing to qualify himself for a juryman during a former trial, in or der that he might vote for acquittal. After Peary once discovers the North Pole mind you, we said after he is going south to find the exact location of the South Pole. Peary is an aggressive personage, and if his ener gies were directed in some legitimate channel he might really ac complish something some time. Red light is all well enough on occasion, but the country has had quite enough of it for awhile and now is going after Thanks giving turkey and trimmings. If you don't get busy the turkey may roost out of your reach, What's the matter with the original Taft man? Not more than three hundred of them have wired application for remem brance and pie. By the way, it is said that it was Mrs. Taft who first picked him for president. Hard as he tried to sidestep the expenditure, it now seems certain that Steve Elkins will have to turn loose that million dol lars to buy a dago prince for his daughter. A turkey and trimmings for every Thanksgiving dinner table is a mighty good platform. If you are not on it, get on quick, and see that your neighbor does likewise. Chicago is taking time by the forelock and has begun a war on the present method of celebrating our natal day, the Fourth of July. The idea of the people of the Windy City is to bring the celebration down to a safe and sane basis, with the object in view of saving the lives and limbs of the rising generation. It $a proposed to do away with the noise and general outburst of exuberance on that day, and to that end the committee appointed by an organization recently perfected to campaign against what is termed a growing evil, will probably recommend that the size of the firecracker be reduced to the minimum, and the sale of all high explosives eliminated. Chicago is taking the right view of the matter and other cities should follow in her footsteps. The present day Fourth of July celebration is an unmitigated nuisance. ' " 1 Tho progress and development of civilization, with its new machines, devices, tools and scientific methods of doing things lias called into existence many new occupations unknown to our forefathers. The latest addition was disclosed the other day, "when a man was arrested in New York for speeding his automo bile beyond the limit of safety, The prisoner was taken to the nearest police station and booked in the usual way. When the lieutenant asked the prisoner what his occupation was the man answered, "Absolute chronic rheumatics," When asked whether he had any other occupation, the prisoner indignantly replied: "What else do you want? Don't you think that's enough to keep any man busy?" He may be right, but it seems a rather unpleas ant and unprofitable occupation. Former Senator Spooner seems to know where the money is that he retired from the senate to go after he's one of E. H. Harriman's lawyers now. . Pittsburg's latest bid for first-page space is an 18-year-old girl porch-climber.. ' Maybe she got her training trying to climb the social ladder. It's up to all of us to pitch in and help "Bill" persuade Gen eral Prosperity to enter "our midst" and to stay put. Yes, this means you, too. NEWS FROM LABOR WORLD The Southern Pacific is going-to provide all limited trains with an outfit for pressing the wrinkled clothing of the traveler. Tho real idea, of course, although the innovation is ostensibly for the convenience of the public, is to lure the aforesaid public into paying more toward the salaries of the Southern Pacifio em ployes. Thus If you have your trouserloons pressed you will pay the porter twenty-five cents, the same amount foryour waistcoat and seventy-five cents for your coat, making one dollar and twenty-five oents for the whole suit. All this in addition, to the money he manages to take away from you for blacking your shoes and flicking the dust from your ooat collar. A league has been formed in China to force the merchants to continue the boycott of Japanese goods, and it pays a reward of $15 for the slitting of the ears of a merchant caught handljng boycotted stuff. They don't do it just that way in this country, but our method is almost as effective as that of he Chinese. We simply go to work and cut off the means of livelihood of the offender and lot him slowly starve to death unless, of course, he decides to be a good dog. Oh, China is waking up all right and before long she will be almost as alert as some of the so-called civilized nations. A Chinese millionaire from Hongkong came to this country and brought two of his wives along to attend to his personal comfort. But this matter of having dual helpmeets is not permit ted in this land of tho free and home of tho trusts, even in the case of milliona'rcs that is to say .openly and one of the wives, the older and uglier one, was deported. Which wo cos elude is tho way of all tho world, 'fcven a prosaic A'O'rictin would probably send away the uglier of his two wives, presuming ho had two, if lie hud to make a choico between them. It Is reported that the lead and slate Industries of Wales are reviv ing. '-. Typographical unions nave neen formed In tne colontes of Barbadoes, British Guiana and Trinidad. For the first time In a number of montliB the shops of the Burlington railroad at Burlington, Iowa, are run nlng on full time and full handed. The law of New York forbidding boys and girls under fourteen years of age from selling newspapers on the streets between 10 p. m. and 6 a. m. has gone Into effect. . ;. ' An Olilnhonia fa.-"ief. insists that a man can live on nine cents a day, provided he uses the product of his farm. Some men may be able to do that, but as a general proposition the statement Is absurd. During the past two years the Uni ted Brewery Workmen of America have paid out more than $113,000 for strike Deneflts. Nevertheless the organization la at present In a flour ishing condition and growing strong er. ' The various trades In the build ing Industry of Jamaica, West In dies, are organizing into unions, which . will be affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, whose agents have assisted in the organization of the unions. The coopers ot Edinburgh, Scot land, who are on a strike at the present time, have sent out an ap peal to trade unionists the world ov er, asking them to boycott the beer of the brewers who will not agree to the demands of the coopers. -- Tho Importance of iron, steel and tlnplate, textiles and Bilk to the peo ple of PonnBylvanla becomes appar ent, when It Is stated that the wage roil tor tnese industries aggregated last year nearly $145,000,000 dls-itlnue. trlbuted among more than 500,000 workers. A comparison of the wages paid In the woolen mills of Italy, France England, . and the United States showB that the wage earners In the woolen Industry of the United States receive nearly three times the pay of Italian workers, double that of the French and seventy per cent more than the English. ' - A remarkable feature of the Te cent Wyoming coal miners' strike .was that Japanese-and Chinese min ers and laborers made common cause with their Caucasian fellow-workers. .It was probably the first time on rec ord that the Orientals and the Amer icans stood together In a strike, at least In this country. About 85 per cent of the employes ui ine cotton mills in japan are wo men nnd girls, and they receive on an average 12 1-2 cents a day for eleven hours work. The men average double what the women get. While there are no labor unions in this In- ausiry, tnere is .prospect that, before long, such unions will be formed. . . For ten nous work a day In Jan ftnese ship-yards, boiler makers re ceive 98 cents, calkers, 49c; punch ers, io cents; screw makers, 47 cents; tinisners, $1 ; moJders, 87 cents; electricians, 57 cents; lathe Burners au cents; copper smiths, 96 cents; machinists 51 cents; blackr Biimns, i.za; iron workers, $1.32: and foundrymen, $1.02. ine wage trouble between the Hyuiumers oi aan rranclsco and their typographers and mailers are ?itr1H!".F th.' att"tlon of those Identified with the printing trades throughout the counry. The employ ers and the union men have been at uKK'-iueaas tor nearly a year over a bonus of $1.00 a day which the publishers granted the men just af ter the earthquake and which the M.u.iauere BOUgnt later to rflsiont,- "T1IIS DATF.
