The call is based upon the proposi2tsoii that "unicn men can not mainiSaic. their self-respect" if they ride cars operated by strikebreakers, ^aecerding to a statement issued to i by Ernest Bolim, secretary of Central Federated union. In cases "mber* contracts exist, Bohm said, the ^aapployers will be notified that the I " aros^iers have no -means cf transTpeitation and if the employers can *nt p-rovide transportation the work ?ers must remain at their homes.

Theodore P. Shonts, president of -he Interborough. Rapid Transit comjpany'and the New York Railways | company, reiterated his determina tion not to meet representatives or j the striking carmen. "If I did so, the loyal men in the I Inter bo rough brotherhood would have J | good cause to strike," he said. "Be-J sides, there is no reason for negotia- j tions. There is no strike. We are' carrying more people in the subway, on the elevated and in the Stein way ! tubes than ever before. Yesterday we carried 2,208,257 passengers' or 387,639 more than on the same day last year. The service on surface car lines is 70.5 per cent, normal." Delegates to the Central Federated j union, representing 125,000 workers J in allied trades, tonight voted unanimously to ratify thet strike called for next Wednesday by union labor leaders. This action follov.-ed a similar steD fc.iJcen several dayse ago by the ! representatives of 2(K),000 members of the United Hebrew Trades. The vote was taken after the delegates had heard a report from the conference of labor leaders which authorized the call, and speeches in favor of a general suspension of work. | Among the trades represented ( at I the meeting were bakers, milk wagon drivers and several branches of the garment industry. It was announced * , ,MrNT. | that the cutters m uie wumcu & umvi-, ing trade have authorized their offi-j cers to call them out. This will mean, it is said, that 60,000 dressmakers and women's tailors will be i unable to work because of the lack of i cutters. Many women from the garment industries were present and took part in the speeches and in the vote. Ernest Bohm, secretary of the Cen* Al. ? tral Federated union, one 01 uie speakers, criticised the action of the policr the attitude of Mayor Mitchel and the public service commission. "We must taice up uiie ciiUgels "with these men," Bohm s&id. "IWie are i fighting a fight that is not merely local, or State, but a great national fight for trade unionism and the right to organize."

The most recent mysteries oT science are the ones that receive lost attention. The air is full of talk nowadays about the thrilling wonders of wireless telegraph and aviation and subterranean transportation and submarine navigation. And very rightly. ror tnese are marveis. out ior uiui matter so are some of the things which we have gradually grown so used to that we never see them at all. There is the railroad. Plenty of romantic mystery is to be found La the railroad yard of a great terminal. It is. first of all. a network of steel ; pathways which seems unthreadable. Trains come and go by devious ways; semaphore arms rise or fall in that one rectangular gesture of theirs. The providence that shapes the ends of all this takes the form of men tugging at some very prosaic looking levers in onrltnh tAmoro O nt^VJul WfTV4W? To get still another effect look at the yard by night, when great llmiteds come surging through the dark, when the only guides aro pieces of multicolored switch and signal lamps. The cars of night freights being made up trundle about and the yard never sleeps. In its way It Is as full of life as the Jungle. Every locomotive is a dragon harnessed to man's service. Thp marvels of science are all about as, and the ones we have grown used to are just as remarkable as those of today and tomorrow.?Collier's. A Safety I Don't fail to ge ty Razors.

COL WEATHER TO ORDER. || It May Possibly Be Brought About by Aid of Eleetrieitv. Is It possible to make weather to order? In the opinion of Sir Oliver Lodge, it is by no means beyond the jg? powers of man. He advances tbe suggestion tbat exploration of tbe upper regions would result in discoveries which would enable man to control the wear ue r. The latter, he contends. Is merely a matter of electrical conditions, and thp ingredients necessary for fine weather are an upper atmosphere charged with positive electricity and a negative *4 charge upon the earth's surface. Much. he says, could be done by placing a copper Tod round the earth parallel to the equator and discharging millions of amperes funitsi from this rod. Sir Oliver points out that we have spent ^ millions on building railways, and why fl not invest capital in controlling the weather by this means? m Meantime, while we are thinking about the copper rod. much might b< done by electricians. Sir Oliver Lodgt wk suggests that the. should ascend a V high mountain, erect a powerful gen erating station and discharge all the V positive electricity they can produce Into flip air Rv this mpans much nt the abnormal weather from which we suffer at times might be avoided and V nature be induced to provide us with more regular seasons.?Rocky Mountain News. Why Not Say "Woman?" Whenever one has occasion to mention the most remarkable sex of the human species one is confronted by the pertinacious fact that there is no general term to describe the subject ef J one's dissertations except the unlovely 1 and almost meaningless term "female." That term is altogether too 1 general. It includes cows, hens and all other beings of that gender. Some word is needed that will express the J female of the human species and nothing else. She who orders the universe 1 and makes planets and suns and stars ' worth while ought to have a name of A her own and one worthy of her. We % call upon the nations of the world to devote themselves for a time to this really important task.?Chicago News.
