Jurgis laughed at the discontent every­
where manifest. "They are not men,”
he exclaimed. What of the "speeding
up” practice of the packers? It was
but play to him to keep abreast of the
fastest. He was working to wed Ona.
They were all cheated shamelessly
by the sharks which Infest the great
packing district; they could not speak
English and they were at the mercy of
these parasites. But as new obliga­
tions arose in the buying of a small,
worthless house, sold them by an
unscrupulous agent, etc., etc., Jurgis
but smiled grtmly, confident in hts
strength, energy and great love for
Ona. “I will work the harder” he says.
And then came a misfortune. Ona, a
mere bloom of a girl of 17, had to go
to work—temporarily. Then a young­
er child. Then Jurgis had a fateful
day, after many months of faithful and
herculean service for the great corpora­
tion. In the melee of a wounded
steer running amuck, he slipped on the
bloody floor and sprained his ankle.
Did the packers give him a short fur­
lough with pay while he was recover­
ing; at least they held his place for
him? Neither. He returned to work,

and worry, the boas sized him up at a
glance and there was no work for him
in Packingtown, and Ona, whom he had
married meantime was about to be­
come a mother.
Then Is recited In T he J ungle , a tale
of gradual and heart-rending downfall
In the wearing out by Inches, of a
strong man. Jurgis gets a Job In the
terrible fertilizer vaults where his head
nearly splits with the poisonous dust
and the stifling fumes of ammonia.
His father dies from the effects of the
awful “speeding up” and the slimy
wet in which he has to work, ankle
deep. Ona, the beautiful, the once
blithe young bride succubus to the
hateful “System” and Jurgis, powerful
man that he Is, bls strong spirit broken
by the brutality and Irrislstible power
of the bosses, becomes a great gaunt,
hollow eyed ghost of his former self.
The story Is a tale of the gradual
extermination of a splendid, virile
European family, ground to death by
a "System,” by a pitiless monopoly,
which cares no more or not as much—
for its workers than it does for the
carcasses of the animals it converts in­
to food. Incidentally the description
of this process is sufficiently revolting
to turn the stomach of the stoiiteBt

An hour at Ellis island in New York

The newly arrived immigrant, before
he has changed his native garb, with
bis outlandish boxes and bundles still
about him, is eternally interesting.
His meetings and partings are full of

He is never so picturesque or so
pathetic as when he has just doubt­

by W. C. De Mille, which was seen re

a sluqde little story, one that happens
day after day.
In a room of the big Immigration
building, with its desk and Its blue-
coated official, an Italian workman
walks excitedly up and down. Ills

encouragement from the good-natured
officer to bring out the whole story.
A big Mediterranean steamer Is Just
landing Its steerage passengers. Luigi,
ns he peers through the gates at the
Incoming crowd, Is almost beside hlm-
Belf with delight.
"I waits three year," he explains,
breathlessly. "I worka verra hard and
I sava de money to bring to me my
Maria and my two little ones.”
He can liardly wait for the gate to
lie opened. But the officer has more
to find out. His questioning brings out
further details. Luigi earns J9 a week
—with bls pick and shovel. The wife
Is not strong. She speaks a little Eng­
lish. The officer looks doubtful, but
says nothing.
Then all at once the boat is tn.
The Italian catches a sight of them
through the gates.
"Na, na, Signore, she cornea last.
She getta lame back and two baby.
Ah—Dio! Maybe she rnlssa da boat—
Ah! Vedete Marla mla Ecco—Vedete
ecco—Ah mla moglle—ecco!”
In another instant, the frail little
wife, in her Neapolitan costume, and
the two children, with their bags and
bundles, are all in their father’s arms,
while the officer goes off to make bls
report.
With her head on her husband's
shoulder, Marla breathes In Italian:
“Ah, my husbund! I see you again,
thank God!”
To which the Americanized Luigi re­
sponds:
“Si, si, carrlsslma, but now talks
English. We nil good Americans and
we live In Mulberry street. I gotta da

Then In quick, excited phrase he

Presently the officer returns. He

Meanwhile the boat Is returning.
The officer lays hla hand kindly on

womlerlngly on. Painfully the little
trio pick up their bundles and turn
