An attack i.vjii the "boycott system" of t lie -..jcrlcun Federation of Labor was buu litre when James W. Van Clove of St. Louis, .resident of the American Association of Manufact urers, tiled a suit in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia seeking to restrain the federation and its officers from the use of the "unfair" and "we don't patronize" lists. Samuel Coroners, president of the federation, and other officers of the organization are named as defend ants. Mr. Van Cleve brings the suit us an Individual, but bo has the backing of the association of which he is president and other similar organizations. It Is understood that this is the beginning of a big legal ba'tle designed to prevent the use of the boycott against persons or companies falling under the displeas ure of union labor. Several broad questions of l;iv are Involved in the suit. It raises the question whether an order pro.feot- SAMUEL. OOMPER3. - a boycott or the enforcement of t'je boycott la not a conspiracy with in the meaning of the Sherman anti trust act. The immediate provocation for the ult filed was the action of the ex ecutive council of the American Fed eration of Labor In putting the Buck Stove Company of St. Loula on the unfair list. This was done some months ao. It was alleged by the labor leaders that the stove com pany was put on the list on the ground of harsh treatment to cer tain of Its employees who belonged to the foandiymen's union. This company denies that It ever bad any trouble with the foundrymen's un ion and declares that the boycott was declared against it out of malice. The company seeks in this suit, among others, a judicial opinion as to whether the boroott has any stand ing in laws. Fluag to Death From Auto. Bernardsvllle, N. J., Aug. 21.

She found the gates closed, the fam ily being nt dinner. Thereat she took "grent um bra so," seized tho son and heir nnd carried him eff to her own castle of Cavrlgahooley. She refused to r leaso the lad until she had extorted a vow from Lord Howth whereby he pledged himself and all his descend ants who should succeed to throw tho gates of the castle wldo open during meal hours. In the courtyard of tho castle, where tho family has resided con tinuously for tho last six centuries, there Is an ancient yew tree, which Is tended and propped up with the utmost care. A legend attaches to it that when-eve- a branch falls it portends the death of the head of tho family.

The orirrlnrO surname of tho Howth family was Trlstnm. Sir Amerlcus Trifctam In 1177 landed at Howth and defeated the Irish nt Ivora. That battlo was fought on St. Lnwrenco's day.

FacSimito Sifinnlure of NEW YORK. A MVI VOLCANO. Extraordinary Scene on u '1'rojiiiiU Island. Some tlmo jiko the natives of Prlt lsh North Iiornoo reported that a hiiKe murine monnter a kind of oc topus hud made its place of recrea tion on the Island of l.lbinian, which lies some twenty miles north of Sandnknn town. Tho monster was minutely deKcilbed an to bine, ap pearance, and habits, and was said to burrow deeply Into the heart of the island and throw mud and water. It had also mado a track from the sea to his hole. Remembering the occurrence of a mud eruption on the island some years ago, the governor of the colony formed his own opinion regarding the existence 0 the supposed mon ster, and when an opportunity oc curred made an examination of the Island. It appeared from his Inves tigations that the "track" made by the marine phenomenon was a river of hardened mud, sun-dried and cracked till It bore the appearance of a glacier of gray mud, complete with Its crevasses and boulders, lacking only the moraines and the exhilarat ing glacier air to make the resem blance complete. At Its lower end, where It debouched Into the sea, a good quarter of a mile from Its source, the mud river was perhaps IS) feet broad, narrowing to eighty feet. At Its highest point 100 feet above sea level where it emerged from the crater. It appeared to have cut through the solid soli, which stood up on each side a good eight or ten feet above the surface of the mud, which was freely strewn with gnmll blocks of gray sandstone. Tho edges of these blocks were, In many ca's, as sharp as those of newly broken road metal. The crater lt"lf, a depresFlon about thirty to forty feet In diam eter, was covered with a crust of mud just strong enough to bear the weight of a man, but giving slightly as one walked over It, thus iudlcat lug that it was merely a crust. In the very center was a small pool of liquid mud, Into which a long stick was thrust without finding bottom. Around the crater rose the walls of r.urd, ten to fifteen feet high, with large blocks of sandstone and rocks bearing streaks of quartz perched In Bitch positions as proved that thoy must have been hurled Into the nlr by the force of the eruption, and dropped Into their present positions.

Old Age. Old uge as it comes in the orderly process of Nature is a bcautifiil and ma jestic tiling. The very shadow of eclipse which threatens it, makes it the more prized. It stumU for experience, knowledge, wisdom and counsel. That is old age as it should bo. Hut old ago as it so often is means nothing but a second childhood of mind and body. What, makes tho diileience? Very largely the cure of the stomach. In youth and the full strength of man hood it doesn't seem to matter how we treat the stomach. We abuse it, over work it, injure it. We don't sutler from it Much. Hut when age comes the stomach Is worn out. It can't prepare and distribute tho needed nourishment M ttie body, and the body, unnourish ed, falls Into fcenllo decay. Dr. Pierce's Oolden Medical Discovery Is a wonder ful medicine for old people whose sto machs are "weak" nnd whose diges tions are "uuor." Its luvigorating effects are felt by mind as well us body. It takes the sting from old ago, and makes old people strong. n.i m i m r iv nil " ,w ! U tftv In
