Organize for Fight.
Union Pacific strikers have de
vised a new method f jr the collec
(ion and distribution of funds. As
the fight with the company pro
ceeds this work is gradually set
tling down toa systematic routine.
Convinced that their struggle will
at least last through the wtnter,
the strikers are. endeavoring to
adopt none but endurable aud prac
tical plans for conductiug their
affairs. To this end a new pint
board of bnancial directors has
been organoid with one member
from each the machinist, boiler
makers and blacksmiths; v .District
Secretary Samuel Grace of the
machinists becomes chairman ot
this board, whose functions are to
solicit aid from organized labor
throughout the country and dis
tribute this aid to all strikers over
the Union Pacific tyslem.
w
Union Assesses Heavy Fine.
The largest fine ever imposed
upon a union workman for rclU6ing
to obey a strike order has jus; been
assessed against Jas. McCarrick,
former president of the boiler
makcru' un'o i f Kansas City, Kan.
He hasbeen fined $1.5 10 be aue he
remained at work when the boiler
makers in the Union Pacific rail
road shops went on a strike, Mc
Carrick has been in the employ ol
the Union Pacific for thirty years.
lie is well thought of by his em
ployers and as 'president of the
boiler makers' union was regarded
as one of the leading figured in or
gained labor circles. McCarrick
says he will not pay the fine in the
event of a settlement between the
boiler makers and the railroad com
pany. 4,Il it ever becomes neces
sary for me to go clacwherc to
work," says McCarrick, "I will look
outside of union shops for employ
ment. My family comes before any
union on earth.".
The old settlers' picnic at Goth
enburg la9t Friday was not as

however, was pleasantly spent.
Speeches were made by icveral
present and a fine dinner was
served.
The five year old daughter ot Mr.
and MrB. Fred Geisp, ot Grt-cuwood,
Cheyenne couuty, died Friday from
the effects ol a rattlesnake bite
The little one did not sec the snake
and feeling the sting supposed it
was a ucc biing.

"Hearts of Oak"
J. A. Herne'tj famous domestic
play, 'Hcarts ol Oak," wtll uc pre
sented at the opera house next .Sat
urday evening by nn exceptionally
strong company. In "Hearts of
Oak" a story of love and self sacri
fice is plainly yet eloquently told,
with a spirit of homely heroism
pervading the whole pl.iy. Terry
Dennlson is a miller living near
Marblehead, Mass., about the year
1859, having reached middle nge
and having become prosperous,
find that he is m love' with his
ward Chrysta', whom he ha raised
from a child. Chrystal, however,
loves Ruby Dirrcll another pro
tege of TcrryV, who, being a Rail
or, is away on a lon cruise and at
the opening of the blay is being ex
pected to return. Tcriy4 not know
ing this, tells his love to Chryatal
and asks hcr to become liis wife,
and shp,'.rathcr than wound her
triend aud benefactor, comenU to
do so, even though the knows it
will break the hert oflur youth
ful lover Roby, as well uh her own.
On Rubs 'a re urn he is nnde ac
quainted with the Male ot alfairs
by his sweetheart and rather than
Bee his be9t friend Buffer the pangs
of unrequited love, he gives up all
hope of marrying Chrystal and
goes on another long voyage.
Terry aud Chrystal are married,
a girl baby comes to bless the
union and Terry's cup of happiness
seems filled to overflowing. Alter
a tiincRuby returns to vihit U
iricnd?, as madly in love with
Chrystal as ever, to find that she
too has not forgotten him. Ttrry
accideutly overhears a conversation
between the two, goes away, ex
pecting never to return, and leav
ing instructions that, should he not
be heard trom in five ycarc,' Ruby
aud Chrystal are to become man
and wife.- Terry ia giveu up for
dead, a .monument is trt.ctcd to hia
memory aud Ruby and Chrystal
prepare to carry out his last
wibhep. On the veiy day of the
ceremony little Chrystal, Terry's
child, discovers a poor, old, blind
sailor wandering about the coun
try churchyard. She takes him in
charge not knowing that it is her
own father, for it is indeed Terry
uenuison, wuo uascomc back to die
amid the seines of his childhood.
