" STAGEHANDS ORGANIZE.
Get Together Without Flourish of
Trumpets '.and 'Organize a Local.
Lincoln has a new labor organiza-
tion, " the -Stagehands having decided
that it was time to get into the union
game. A few days ago the stagehands
employed at the three ;. local amuse
ment resorts, the Oliver, Lyric and
Bijou, met to the number of twenty
four and perfected a temporary organ
ization. Temporary , officers were
elected, dues were paid in', and a char
ter was sent for. 1 :s
As soon as the charter is received,
permanent organization will be per- '
fected. ' To the credit of the new or
ganization it may pp said that every
man eligible to membership was taken
in. . -
UNION HEROES.
What the Trades Organizations Have
Done for Those Who Toil.
The Etalwart heroes of labor unions
have met and vanquished a vandal
horde of more dread foes than ever
Roman legions saw. With their union
shop and their label they press for
ward and conquer new evils with
every passing year. It was organized
labor that inaugurated child labor
laws and made those laws effective.
It Is organized labor who has demand
ed and compelled the introduction of
safety appliances on our railways and
in our shops. It Is they who demand
and are winning shorter hours of la
bor for the men upon whose steady
nerves depend the lives of tens of
thousands. It is they who have won
for the city of Chicago alone more
than half a million dollars a year in
taxes that were formerly evaded. It
is they who build cities without
sftims, who maintain sobriety without
coercion, who overthrow despotism
without war. In persistent, heroic,
self-sacrificing struggles for the wel
fare of humanity; in clean, temper
ate, orderly civic and individual life;
in fearless, faultless democratic edu
cation of the masses; in ardent, ef
ficient, ethical maintenance of eternal
truth, the labor union has shown itself
the greatest moral force of the pres
ent age. All of you who have the
genuine liberal American spirit of our
republic, the sense of common inter
ests and of individual rights as men,
prove it by joining the union of your
craft or calling, and do so with the
firm determination to stand by it
through thick and thin, always keep
ing in mind that "United, we stand;
divided, we fall." Houston Labor
Journal.
CENTRAL LABOR UNION.
Will Meet Tuesday Evening to Fix
Matters for the Annual Benefit.
The Central Labor Union will meet
next Tuesday evening to make final
arrangements for the annual benefit
performance so kindly tendered by the
Fulton Stock Co. and the management
of the Oliver theatre, and to take ac
tion on the proposed observance of
Labor day.
It is to be hoped that every delegate
will be present at this meeting, as the
success of the Labor day demonstra
tion depends largely upon the prelim
inary work performed by the central
body.
THE LEATHERWORKERS.
Celebrate Their Seventh Anniversary
with Pomp and Circumstance.
The Union Leatherworkera on Horse
Goods celebrated the seventh anniver
sary of their local organization last
Tuesday, night, and the occasion was
a most enjoyable one. A regular meet
ins was held prior to the anniversary
celebration and considerable import
ant business waf transacted.
After the business meeting the cele
bration proper began. The editor of
The Wageworker was present by in
vitation and told a few stories and re
cited a few verses. Then ice cream
and cake came on and everyone pres
ent made a full hand. The remainder
of the evening was spent in social in
tercourse. The event was well hand
led "by the committee in charge, and
the ' Leatherworkers fittingly celebrat
ed the anniversary of their local.
A DESERVED PROMOTION.
Mr. Ed. R, Butler, for several years
city passenger agent of the Northwest
em at this place, has just been pro
moted to be traveling passenger agent
of that road. The promotion of Mr.
Butler is deserved, for he is a thor
ough railroad man and has rendered
good service to the Northwestern
since he became connected with it. His
many friends are congratulating him,
and all of them expect to see him climb
still higher in the railroad world.
HORRIBLY INJURED.
Son of Prominent Unionist Terribly
Hurt by Fourth of July Accident.
John, the 15-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. T. C. Kelsey, was terribly in
jured on the Fourth. He put a lot of
powder under a tin can and then went
closer to see why it had not made the
intended noise. Just before he touch
ed it the powder exploded and the can
was driven with terrific force, into.tlje
lad's face. The can cut a horrible
gash, injuring both eyes and cutting a

SAND TABLE A BOON.
How to Prepare a Simple Contrivance
That Will Prove Instructive
to the Children.
A sand table is a great educator lor
children and furnishes them with un
limited amusement. - SimDlv make a
small low table from packing boxes,
with crossed legs, sawhorse fashion,
at each end, and two braces, one either
side of the legs at the place where they
cross, to hold them firmly in place.
There should be a little, narrow rim
nailed around the top of the table to
keep in the sand. Now provide a keg
of clean, dry sand and a little sand
shovel, and the children will do the
rest
With the aid of a sand table chil
dren can get a much clearer idea of
geography than - by oral . description.
What wonderful mountains, . lakes,
river coures, valleys, etc., can be made!
Or, the sand may be laid out to repre
sent a park,, using bits of evergreen
rwiev Tor Trees ann snraDS. a real -
good farm can be laid out, with bits
of sticks or toothpicks for fences, and
toy cattle may oe lurneu uul w gi-uc
in the pastures.
Children will amuse themselves for
hours with such material, gaining at
the same time a certain dexterity for
fashioning things that is certain to be
of value to them later in life. Farm '
