Tbe Mianeapolis TnbuDe gives soma deUUs of tbe situation as follows: Miss Alice 8. Woodbridse, aecreUry aad chief executive oJSoer of tbe Worktop Women's Society of New York hss been siskins a personal investigation into tbe condition of tbe saleswomen of that city. Tbe discoveries she has made are simply appalling. In telling her story, in part, today she said she found that tbe hours in stores areexoeesive, and that overtime is not paid for. Hours are not specified when an employe is hired. A child, on f-- a week, is obliged to work sixteen hours a day at certain seasons of tbe year, and is forced to go long distances through queslate at night localities tionable The sanitary arrangement in most of tbe stores are wretched. In a certain fashionable store, Miss Wood-bridg- e says, tbe women cashiers are in tbe basement or rather cellar, for it is nothing else. In tbe center of the cellar room is walled up, and in it are seated fifteen or twenty cashiers. The automatic carriers are used. No air came to the cashiers when the arrangement was first made, and In the fetid atmosphere; in tbe strong glare of tbe electric lights, with hundreds of carriers pouring in upon tbem with a noise so deafening that two women seated side by side could not hear each other speak without shouting, the situation was too much tor tbe strongest man. Girls fainted day after day, and came out of the cellar at night LOOKIKO LIKE CORPSES. Finally, as tbe intense heat of summer came on it became unendurable, and the which came to the surface a lonir distance away, was opened in the oeiJar, Even then the thermometer registered 90 degrees on the coldest days. Jio slaves ever underwent such torture. She declares that the toilet arrange ments in manv stores are simply horrible take yet tbe board of health apparently 00 notice of the fact. In tbe manufacturing department of one of New York's anu largest stores IDS same wasn-oasitowel has to serve for all. On visiting tbe store she was struck by tbe fact that large number of children were sutler ing from air-tub- e, n GRAKCLATED EYELIDS. As this disease is contagious, it is easy to see how it could spread from that single towel. Moreover, women and children have to make personal applies for tbe keys of to' the tion . . I If.i me wiiei rooms, fill ine general condition in the store of the city may be judged from tbe fact that one of the saleswomen told Miss Wood bridge that the toilet room in this particular store was better than sho baa seen in any store where she had been hitherto employed. Miss Woodhridge says that a great many children under the age of 14 years are employed. Tbe poor little cash-girl- s floor-walke- rs I 1 ABE TREATED SHAMEFULLY in many instances. , Loner and faithful service does not meet with consideration; on the contrary it is, in many instances, customary to moke frequent changes in employes, lest they get the idea that they are entitled to better wages for continued faithfulness. The wages paid to women average N to 4.50 per week, which is often reduced by uareasonable and excessive tines. The tines of a saleswoman in a Sixth Avenue house, from September 1 to January 1 were 115. A cash-girgetting 12 a week, has somer times to pay fines amounting to 60 cents. Tbe law requiring seats for the saleswomen is generally ignored. In a few cases one seat is provided at a counter fifteen where girls are employed; and in one store sea's are provided according to law, but a saleswoman is fined if she is l, 24th St. Goodrich & Co. 313 inuiM f Ulttwj linm Tbe past winter has practically sHr tied one thing in Sew York that tbe bterary reception has had its day. Two years ago "evenings" were held by all tbe well knows literary people, but tbe practice was abased, and tbe following year saw tbe beginning of tbe end. This past season but a few bterary "at homes" have been given, and tbeae lacked their former interest so much so that next winter will see still a smaller number. One ranse of tbe unpopularity into which the literary reception in New York has fallen was it shameful abase. A literary woman would begin her season with a small coterie of her select friends, and so long as those same congenial spirits came together all went delightfully welL Batons friend brought another. and after two or three weeks ha woold in torn bring a third, until at tbe close of the season the hostess woold find her rooms overran with a lot of minor literary lights whom she scarcely knew, and the spell was broken. Then the deaths of Miss Booth, Oliver Bell Bunoe, tbe removal of Marion Harland made a difference, and so for more than one reason the practice has died oat Perhaps tbe change will be for tbe better, since privileged friends will be nore certain of companionships npon special agnpble when tbe hostess signifies ber evenings intention to be at home for these, and these alone.

By a new invention which is being tried on some of the southern railroads it is thought possible that engines daa be supplied with water when necessary without stopping. The system is ex plained as follows: There is to be a tower over each well or stream that is to supply water, about forty feet high, and from this tower is suspended by a wire cable a tank or bucket holding about 2,500 gallons of water. The same is raised by passing locomotives, and the water discharged automatically into a storage tank. The bucket that conveys the water to the storage tank, Khen emptied, goes back automatically into the well or stream of supply, and is filled ready for the next locomotive. This saves the expense of a stationary engine and fuel, with engine and such expense as attends the present system, and gives equal guarantee of reliable supply. New York Telegram.
