Ewn the worm will turn, they say.
and hungry, underpaid stevedores ara
l»!>s patient than the earth-grubbing
Insect. There were murmurs at Sny
der's orders and open rebellion at his
language. Just how It started nobodv
aeemed to know: lust who began It
doesn't matter. Suffice to say that
leaderless as the men were. Impelled
by a common Instinct, they had sud
denly rushed the rough-tongued fore
man and had thrown him o tt the dock
Into the water. Then had come the
march to the office, the demand for
better pay, the dancing of the gate,
the call for the police—and the strike.
Of all this not a word had reached
Laura. Of all this not a whisper, no:
a suggestion had found its way be
hind the beautiful vine-covered stone
wall that surrounded the Powers es
tate. Not a syllable had beeh per
mitted to disturb the peace and ser
enity of the millionaire's palatial res
idence, and probably never would
have, if the men, at an open air
meeting on the afternoon of Laura's
party, had not appointed Tim Phand
the head of a committee to place their
grievances before the millionaire.
"We can never get to him at his
office. We will see him at his home,"
Tim had shouted.
And so it happened as we have seen,
that the rough coated men, with the
stubble of a week's growth of beard
on their chins, had shoved the serv-

ants to'one side, and had elbowed
their way among the guests at Laura
Powers' colonial party.
At last Tim and the angry Powers
came face to face.
For a moment the two men glared
at each other. And then Shand. with
the self-command and eloquence that
had made him a leader among the
workmen, quickly made his plea for
Justice.
"We come to you. Mr. Powers, be
cause we realize that you do not know
what the men have suffered. We
know that if you had realized the
awful tyranny of your underlings,
conditions would have been improved
long ago. We ask you to take the
men back under proper working
conditions. And, (this firmly,) we
ask the removal of Snyder. Not for
ourselves alone but for our wives and
children we appear. They are starv
ing "
"Let them starve," was Powers' an
swer.
Laura was a surprised and startled
witness to this stirring scene. She
had never realized before that thers
was such a thing as starvation. Only
today at luncheon she had ordered
an entire roast destroyed because It
had not been cooked to suit her. Prob
ably in the course of a year, she had
ordered enough food thrown away to
feed several of the starving families
of her father's striking workmen.
A great compassion was born with
in her. Her features showed the dawn
of a wondrous pity. Putting her arms
about her father's neck she asked him
to tell her all about the strikers and
their hungry families. Laughingly
he put her from him.
"Those problems for little
girls like you?" he told Pier. "Go anil
Join j'our guests. They will miss
you."
There was a troubled pucker in her
brow as she left him, a preoccupied
air as she Joined In the merriment.
CHAPTER 111.
Mina Hurd was a frail and delicate
woman of £5. A constant battle with
poverty had left its marks. Far into
each night she toiled with neeedle in
a desperate endeavor to eke out the
little family's slender income.
Bent over some hand sewing, urging
her weary fingers to unceasing en
deavors to add to ttie slowly increas
ing pile of finished garments beside
her, she hardly deigned to raise her
eyes from her work, when a com
motion at the unpalnted front door
of the shabby cottage warned her
that she was having visitors at an un
usual time.
Two laborers appeared at the door
way supporting the half unconscious
Hurd between them. His head was
covered with blood. His eyes were
«lassy. His feet shuffled and seemed
, too heavy for him to lift.
"Tour husband's been hurt, ma'am,"
■aid one of the men. as guided by
Mina, they half dragged, half carried
the injured man to the scantily fur
nished bedroom and propped their
■tricken comrade In the shabby bed.
The happenings of the next few
hours were as a dream to Mina. She
had a hazy recollection that one of
the men had called the kindly-faced
and gentle Dr. Gray. She vaguely
remembered having fed something to
little Mina. She dimly sensed having
helped Dr. Cray and one of the lab
orers dress her husband's wound. But
from out the chaotic jumble of her
ttangled memory, one thing stood bold
and clear. It was the verdict of the
doctor, spoken in gentle, kindly tones.
"Tour husband has a severe in-
Jury to the skull. He cannot work
for many weeks."
But Mina Hvird was not the only
one to whom these words had sent
their horrible portent. Through the
throbbing of Hurd's battered temples,
through the half paralyzed numbness
of his brain they penetrated to his
subconscious understanding, and made
him realize the awfulness of the
poverty they foretold.
Followed days and weeks of des
perate struggle for Mina, while Hurd
slowly recovered his strength. Sitting
Impotent in his chair, the Injured
Stevedore watched his frail and
faithful wife grow frailer with each
succeeding day. Each stitch of her
needle was a separate anguish to him.
Each time the bit of sharpened steel
entered the cloth it was as If it pene
trated his soul, email wonder he re
solved, while sitting there, that Jalft
Snyder and his Millionaire employer
would pay—pay dearly for this trag
edy of tyranny and toll In which he
and his little family were playing tke
leading roles.

Ex-Judge Jacobs, however, took the
position that benefits ana damages In

on the western side of the street should
be equalized and tha. any damages
that would accrue should be paid for
by the city.
Several property holders, especially
those residing below Kelker wno nave

assessed damages since they had al
ready given their land to the city.
The total net damages awarded was
$Bl4 which was divided *mong eigh

from $5 to $363. This was the Henry

assessed against sixteen properties
In sums ranging from *10.40 to SSI6.

Epicurean Episodes
By DOROTHY" DIX
Undoubtedly the sweet that appeals
most to the palate of man, and with
out which he feels the feast of life In
complete, Is preserved peaches. In
deed, so insatiable is the masculine ap
petite for this dainty that many men
bankrupt themselves in their efforts
to secure an adequate supply.
Happily the supply of peaches is a
large one, and though old men con
tinually tell us that peaches now are
not what they were In their youth,
and prophesy that the crop will be
blighted, this is invariably found to
be a false alarm.
Peaches grow in all parts of the
country, each section producing a
variety that has some peculiar excel
lencies of Its own and that appeals
to the local taste. The largest peach
orchard In the world, however, and
that bearing the n»ost beautiful and
luscious fruit is situated near the
junction of Forty-second street and
Broadway. Here are to be found such
wonderfully perfect peaches that peo
ple come from long distances Just to
gaze upon them.
This variety of peaches is very ex
pensive. It Is known scientifically as
the Peachus Chorusgirlus, and Is In
tended for show purposes, and not
for home consumption, although
many men who like to dabble In do
mestic chemistry have tried to put
It up. Unfortunately, the experiment
is rarely successful, as the peaches
are sure to sour, and never £gree with
anyone.
As to the Variety
In putting up peaches, the most
important thing to consider is the
quality of the raw material. Be sure
to pick out your peaches yourself.
Do not trust this to 'anyone else, as
there Is nothing in which tastes differ
more than in this fruit, some men
liking large, handsome showy peaches
while others prefer small ones, while
still other men care only for sweet, in
sipid peaches, and yet others like
them best when they have a tart and
acid flavor.
Local Man Solves Dye
Problem of Many Mills
Paul Rothe, residing at 2327 North
Third street, has solved a dlfflcufty
that has confronted many manufac
turers who employ dyes In the manu
facture of their products. Since the
beginning of the European war the
exportation of aniline dyes from Ger
many has been completely cut off and
manufacturers hare had a serious
problem confronting them.
Mr. Rothe, who is a German by
birth, is one of Ave sons who became i
expert dyers under the tutelage of |
their father, who was for many years
engaged In the business In Germany. I
It was in this business that Paul Rothe
served his apprenticeship and became i
AUGUST 12,1915.
Opinions also differ as to whether
It Is more desirable for a man to risk
his neck climbing up after the peach
that hangs highest on the tree, or to
take the dead ripe one that Is ready
to fall Into his mouth.
These are, of course, mere matters
of detail, but the man who is about
to put up his life supply of peaches,
should be very careful of one thing,
and that is not to be deceived by a
piece of pink mosquito netting Into
thinking that he is getting a luscious
peach when, in reality, he Is only
getting a lemon. It should also be
borne In mind that peaches are most
desirable before the down has been
rubbed oft. For this reason many
men prefer country peaches to those
grown in town In hothouses, but
while the country peach is undoubt
edly fresher It lacks the piquant
flavor of the city fruit.
Peaches may be put up in an almost
infinite variety of ways. The exotic
variety, Peachus Chorusgirlus, to
which reference has already been
made, is generally put up in cham
pagne. This is a favorite sweetmeat
with very young anfl very old mil
lionaires, and is extremely expensive.
You can see It served, however, at
the midnight suppers at the fashion
able restaurants. It is always gar
nished lavishly with diamonds and
American beauty roses and wisps of
chiffon.
A more whtflesome confection, and
one better suited for the family table
is preserved peaches. To make this
dish, select a nice fresh, sweet peach,
with the blush of morning and the
dew of dawn still on Its cheeks. Take
it carefully home and handle It very
gently, always remembering that It
is very tender and easy to bruise.
When serving flavor It with all the
sweetest terms of endearment that'
you can think of, and spice It with
delicate attention and flattering com
pliments.
Be generous in making your sauce
of affection so that there will be
enough to cover your peach com-
familiar with the old methods of dye
making previous to the Introduction
of aniline dyes, to which process the
old-style dyeing gave way.
Since the breaking out of the Euro
pean war Mr. Rothe has done consid
erable research work and by making
use of the knowledge gained In his
early years In Germany he has been
able to employ domestic materials and
has Improved the old methods of dye
ing to meet the present-day mechan
ical and chemical process of producing
colors on textures and yarns.
He conducts a bleaching and* dyeing
works at Newport, where his process
Is being used In the big Romberger
hosiery mills, as well as In many other
mills throughout the country. The
process Is one that has awakened con
siderable Interest among manufactur
ers. many of whom have been in touch
with Mr. Rothe on the subject.
pletely. Simmer gently over the
steady fire of faithfulness, and the
result will be a preserved peach that
will keep in any climate.
Preserved peaches made after this
receipt were a great favorite with
our grandfathers, who frequently took
prizes at the county fair and else
where for preserved peaches, that
they had kept fifty years. Unfortu
nately the art of making this whole
some, everyday sweet appears to have
been lost by their descendants, and few
men nowadays go to the trouble of
preserving their own peaches. They
seem to prefer to get fresh fruit.
Another very common way to put
up peaches is to pickle them. You
can make pickled peaches out of any
kind of peaches, even the freshest
and sweetest peaches, that were in
tended for preserving, but the hard,
acid variety are the easiest to pickle.
To make pickled peaches, first rub
all of the down of romance and illu
sion from them with a rough hand.
Then slash them with sharp speeches,
and bruise them with brutal jests.
This makes them so that they pickle
very readily.
Then bring to a boll a barrel of
the vinegar of temper, into which
throw an equal quantity of nagging
and neglect Season It with ridicule,
and contempt and souse your peach
In this mixture, until the acid pene
trates thoroughly though every part
of It. Serve this dish always as an
accompaniment to family parties.
Many men seem to have a morbid
relish for pickled peaches, and have
a great knack at making them. This
Is to be regretted, as pickled peaches
are extremely Indigestible, and the
fact that they are served at so manv
family tables undoubtedly accounts
for much of our matrimonial dys
pepsia.
Peaches are practically never can
ned, task of canning a peach re
quiring such superhuman cleverness
and strength that few men ever even
attempt it.
