SHARP ADVANCE DKMAXDKl). j ! New Wage S ale Calling for 35 to 05 j Per Cent. Increase is Adopted. j Cleveland, Aug. 17.?A 35 to 65 j per cent, increase in wages is deman- j de for 1 17.000 firemen and hostlers) on railroads in the United States and Canada in a wage scale adopted before adjournment today bv 300 general chairmen of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, in session here since Tuesday. Another demand to be presented to the director general of railorads is that all coal burning locomotives in road service weighing 200.000 pounds and over shall be equipped wim mechanical stokers and that two firemen shall be employed on all such locomotives until they are so equipped. About half of the 80.000 engines in the United States will come under J this proposal, only about 5,000 of j which are equipped with mechanical stokers at present. In accepting the report of the wage committee, appointed at the opening session last Tuesday, and which only completed and presented its report Saturday morning, discussion of which took up yesterday's and today's conference, some modifications were made, but the report was adopted in the main ?>art. A Line of Talk. Two telephone girls in different country exchanges were having a chat over the wires on the subject of dress. For fifteen or twenty minutes they discussed the topic, from ruches to furbelows, and they were in the midst of accordion plaits when a strident, impatient, .imperative masculine voice broke up the symposium. "Ten-four-nine-two," the voice yelled. "Are you there. Sam? Ah, at last! Hello, who is that speaking?" "What line do you think you are on?" demanded one of the girls, indignant at being interrupted. "Really," came the weary and disgusted reply, "I don't know; but from the gabbling that is going on I think I'must be on the clothes line." A "Helpful Hint." Aunt Martha was frequently praised for her culinary skill. On one occasion, when a number of guests had dined with the family, remark wis made concerning the beautiful appearance of Aunt Martha's pie, which had a pretty scallop on the edge. Discussion arose as to how the ?ook managed to maintain such an / even design on every pie, and Martha was summoned to the dining room and the question duly put to her. The emotions of the guests may be imagined when she replied: "Oh, dat's easy. Ah jes' uses mah false teeth." S. C. GIXXERS FIX PRICE. Declare Ginners Should Receive $5 Ginning Bale Cotton. Greenwood, Aug. 17?Mr. F. S. Evans, president of the South Carolina Ginners Association, has given out the following announcement for publication: At a meeting of the South Carolina Ginners Association, held in Columbia, S. C., at the Jefferson Hotel. August 14, after going over the matter thoroughly it wae decided that the ginners should receive for their services rendered in ginning a bale of cotton weighing 525 pounds per bale $3.50, and all in excess of 525 pounds seventy cents per hundred pounds, and $1.50 for bagging and ties, making a total of $5.00 per hale for ginning and wrapping, this being the same price fixed by the food administration last year. I trust that all the ginners in your section will adhere to this price. Something. Aroused at strict toggery laws enforced by the beach authorities with regard to the fair sex Mrs. H. B. Harrison, of Washington, in a letter to the beach censor, delivered to Chief Surgeon Charles Bossert, head of the "beach patrol," today says: "The way men are allowed to parade the beach makes them repulsive. The girls, after all, have curves and attractions not at all disgusting when they are permitted to come out on the beach without stockings. Why can't you say something about the awful looking men who parade around in nothing but a little scrap of a bathing suit, which fails utterly to cover their unsightly bodies? "And their linfbs are simply awful, full of knobs, and besides most men are bowlegged. Could anything be more unsightly? The men. not the girls, should be compelled to wear stockings, and long stockings at that, also something to cover up their arms and chests. Nobody wants to see them, and they only clutter up goodlooking scenery."?Atlantic City Special.
