iOHIO MOB LEADERS TO BE PROSECUTED Governor Harmon Makes Plan to Cause Arrest of the Ring-leaders. PREMEDITATED MURDER CHIEF EXECUTIVE DECLARES THE OFFENDERS MUST BE SENT TO THE PENITENTIARY IF NOT TO THE ELECTRIC CHAIR. Columbus, O., July 12. Prosecution of the Newark rioters Is to be most vigorous. Governor Harmon expects fifteen' or more arrests to be made within twenty-four hours. Detective Harry J. Bradbury of the Service company of Cleveland, was called before Attorney General Denman at 10 o'clock last " night The conference was held at that hour that he might be accompanied by detectives who left Cleveland for Columbus at 6 p. m. Their names were withheld as a trip to Newark was planned to be taken immediately after the conference. Data of what occurred prior to and during the lynching was turned over to Denman. It included the names of several , rioters who too kpart in battering in the Jail doors and In the hanging of Etherington. . . One . of the detectives was , an eye witness. Governor Harmon's word to Denman was that the ringleaders of the mob must be landed In the penitentiary, if not sent to the electric chair. .- The governor believes that the charge of premeditated murder can be sustained if the participants in the lynching can be identified beyond doubt Both Harmon and Denman, from what they now know, believe complete identification can be established. European Tattooer. Tattooing is not by any means confined' to savage peoples. There are races in Europe which make it a regular practice, and men. women and children bear on their bodies ornamentations that are as ornate and queer, although not as extensive, as are markings on the bodies of the south sea savages. These European tattooers are among the Albanians and Bosnians, who live in the famous Balkan peninsula. Pride All Around. Tm proud to say." boasted the man with the large stomach and the Immense solitaire, "that 1 ain't never wasted any time read In' poetry." "Well." ventured the gentleman with the seedy clothes and the high brow, "if the poets were asked they would probably agree that they were proud of It too." Chicago Record-Herald.

Do not overlook the pruning, or perhaps we would say cleaning, of evergreens, as it consists of little more than taking out the dead branches and twigs. If you open the branches and look into the center of most evergreens you will find a mass of dead twigs and leaves. Alt this should be cleaned out and if the plant Is .not too dens on the outer side you will find new growth start from where you have taken the dead wood.

A TRUEUNIONIST. Story of an Old Woman and Her Strike Breaker Son. REFUSED BLOOD MONEY. Mother Remembered What the Union Did For Her, but Joe Forgot An Incident That Illumines a Little Known 8do of the Labor Movement. The fight bad been on for a week. Practically all the workmen had walked out when the strike was called, but the company had bad plenty of warning and was making a desperate effort to keep the plant runulng. A hundred men bad been smuggled In the night the trouble started, aud one of the half dozen old bauds wbo stuck by their jobs bad been made foreman at a sal nry tnree times wnat be bad ever earned before. The second day of tbe strike some of the strike breakers bad beeu assaulted when they left tbe plant after tn quitting whistle. After that tbe wbole force stayed luslde the fence all the time, sleeping on cots In the office and eating food furnished by tbe company and smuggled in bidden in boxes of raw stock. At tbe eud of a week it was apparent to both sides that so long as Joe Benson, tbe young fellow who had been mad foreman, and tbe four or fire other eiperienced workmen stuck by their jobs tbe compauy would' be able to make a good bluff at keeping tbe plant running. If they quit it would probably have to be shut down. After dark on the evening of the seventh day Joe Benson slipped out of tbe gate, turned tbe first corner and hurried down a dark side street Two blocks awsy he was stopped by three men. Almost Instantly and as if by magic a crowd of a hundred men gathered. Tbe president of tbe union. In tbe center, appealed to Benson to stick by tbe strikers and throw up bis job. He refused defiantly. Threats were exchanged. Things began to look ugly. Suddenly tbe crowd parted to let an old woman with a shawl over her head push her way to the center. "Joe." she said. Benson's eyes lit up. "Mother." he began, stepping toward ber. But tbe old woman's face was stern and frowning. The young man stopped and looked at her. astonished. She held out a roll of bills. "Here's tbe $50 you sent me, Joe." she said. "I don't want it It's blood money." Benson stood still, staring hard at her. No one else broke the silence. "Take It" she said. Then, as he stood motionless, she threw tbe money at his feet "Joe," she went on, "be a man. Stick by the rest of us. Remember your father. If you don't come home with me now. Joe. and stay at borne you're aAcab. and I never want you to come inside my bouse again." That bit of personal observation was followed tbe same evening by an opportunity to talk with tbe Spartan mother as she sat by the stove in her own little kitchen, her big son beside her. She was asked why she had turned so strangely against ber son when natural maternal Instinct would have led ber to rejoice in his promotion. "Ten years my man Benson was a member of tbe union, paying bis monthly dues and all tbe time getting a little bigger wages and a little shorter hours." she answered. "The union did that for us first of all. Then Benson took tbe fever. Ten weeks be was laid up, and every week the union paid us the sick benefit. When be got worse the women of tbe auxiliary took turns sitting, up with him so that I could get a bit of sleep. When be got well tbe union got him a Job. Ten years more went by, and Benson and I together went through a couple of hard strikes. - And wages kept creeping up little by . little-' I saw that tbe men wbo didn't stick by tbe union got no good out of tbeir treachery In tbe long run. - "What's a little extra money for a few weeks when your neighbors look at you cross eyed and you know In your heart your man's no better than a common thief? And when the trouble's over ten to on he's let out for good and goes ratting round tbe country In dark corners for tbe rest of bis life. That's the way it works, Jo. "Well. then. Benson got bis hurt, it was a busted steam pipe that did it When my man got out of tbe hospital be was blind. Eight months tbe union paid us tbe disability benefit every week. Then be died. The union buried him. They paid me tbe $500 death benefit that helped to keep Jo in school. And tbe monument over bis father's grave in tbe cemetery tbe union paid for. Jo didn't remember about It tbat'a all." It will doubtless surprise many people who think of labor unions aa organizations existing solely for the purpose of forcing higher wages from .reluctant employers to learn that a large part of the energy and funds of elmost every body of organized workingmen is devoted to various forms of friendly aid and mutual protection. In tbe aggregate they bave paid out hundreds of millions of dollars as death, sick and out of work benefits. They take care of their fellow craftsmen who bave been injured at work; they maintain employment bureaus which serve a most useful purpose as clearing houses between employers and men; some of them have established sanitariums where members who are ill may be .treated at the general expense; they provide pensions for those who have been permanently disabled by accident, and In a few cases they have built great homes for the old and decrepit members of tbeir orders.ijenry M. in Chicago Tribune.
