CHEATERS OF WOMEN. HOW THEY ARE SERVED BY THEIR PROTECTIVE UNIONS. Some of the Cases Undertaken by the Union in this City—How Male Swin dlers are Brought to Terms—An Em ployer’s Letters. From the New York Sun. A pretty, dark-eyed girl, with a delicate face which was not less attractive because of some traces of sorrow upon it, entered the office of the Working Women's Protective Union, at 19 Clinton place, one day re cently. “Iwant to get my money,” she said to the Superintendent. “Madam (and she gave the name of a fashionable Fifth av enue dressmaker) owes me SBB for work.” “Oh, yes,” said the Superintendent. “We know that dressmaker. You are not the first one to complain against her.” Then the dark-eyed girl told her story. Her father was an Italian artist in Eng land. She came to this country with her brother, and he desert*-! her. She used her needle to support herself in various places, and finally answered the Fifth avenue dressmaker’s advertisement for a finisher at $lO a week. The dressmaker paid her a lit tle at a time, but never ail she owed. She wanted the S3B due her U> pay her passage back to England, where her father was. The dressmaker told her that she had spoiled her work, which was not true, be cause she had seen the work accepted by the customers. The Superintendent, believing the girl’s story, opened her batteries on the fashiona ble dressmaker by sending her the follow ing: “Madam : A complaint against you has been left at this office by , who alleges that you owe her S3B which she is unable to collect. If there is any just cause why she should not receive this money, you will please make it personally known to us within three days, or elso we shall be obliged to assume that vour silence is an ad mission of the debt, and to place the matter before the court for collection. Yours re spectfully,” “M. W. Ferrer, Superintendent.” “We will have that money for you to morrow, I think,” said the Superintend ent to the girl, and turning to the repor ter she said: “That madam has refused several times to pay similar claims, but has always done so when they were presented by the union. We have collected about SSOO from her in small sums for poor girls. Very little difficulty is experienced in col lecting these claims after employers thor oughly comprehend that they have to deal with a powerful organization, and not with a defenseless working woman.” “Against what class of employers do you receive most complaints?” “Against dressmakers, I think. Why, I know of one doing business now who has defrauded thirty girls at least, for we have that many judgments against her! She has a large house elegantly furnished with furni ture obtained on the installment plan, and that we can’t touch until the installments are paid. She is a very shrewd woman, and has fixed all her property so we cannot get at it.” The female employers, explained the Su perintendent, always cause the union the most trouble. There is a section of the Code whereby a man against whom a judgment has been obtained for unpaid wages to a female employe, and who has no property in sight to attach, can be arrested and imprisoned for fifteen days. Necktie makers, glove makers, and little manufac turers are continually defrauding their girls, but the wise girls who take their claims to the union generally get their money. One class of these swindlers of women, after so many operations in one city as to make a continued residenco warm for them, remove to another city and begin the same business. But there are other unions in other cities. Recently a man, a well known milliner and dressmaker in Phila delphia, swindled lots of his girls, and the Philadelphia Women’s Protective Union took proceedings against him. He picked up his property and came to this city. The f iris’ claims were turned over to the union ere, and a judgment was obtained against him. But the swindler, though very shrewd, didn’t know of the clause in the Code, and so paid no attention to the judg ment. When he was told about the clause by an officer of the law, he whistled, and then paid the full amount with costs. No claim is too small for the union to take up. Suit for 2oc. has been brought several times, and after going through the usual process the money has been collected. The excuses invented by these sharks of the workshop are very numerous, and many of them amusing. A common one is thift the work which a girl has performed is un satisfactory, though the work is taken just the same. This excuse didn’t pass the other day with a nimble-fingered girl, skillful at fancy work. She had unuer taken the embroidering of daisies on felt, at the magnificent pav of one and a quar ter cents each. She had finished 265 ot the daisies, when she asked her employer, a woman, who kept a fancy work store, for pay for them. The employer had a bad habit of finding fault with girls’ work, and then deducting a certain amount from their wages. “Oh, those daisies are wretchedly worked,” said the woman. “I can’t nav you full price for these. A dollar is all they are worth." “Ail right,” said the girl, and she quietly rolled up her daisies and went to the Women’s Protective Union for advice. “Go I>ack and tell the madam that if she doesn't want to pay what she agreed for the daisies you will keep them. They are worth all you ask,” was the advice she got. She went back and made the proposition to the madam, who called her an impudent thing, just because she would not be quietly roblicd. The daisies were worth much more than a cent and a quarter apiece, and the Wily madam knew it. She paid what she had agreed to pay for them. But while bad Workmanship is a common excuse, there is a variety of others urged by unscrupulous employers. A bright-faced young woman came to the office of the Women’s Protective Union recently and said that she had been employed ns sales woman by a dry goods merchant at $2 a week. At the end of the week he dis missed her, and wouldn’t give her any money. “Why?” asked the Superintendent. “Couldn’t you do the work!” “Yes. They said my work was all right, but—” "You were certainly not untidy or slov enly in appearance?” “No. They said nothing about that, but—” and she hesitated again. “Were you impudent, or careless, or dis honest ?” “No. They said I did not smile at the customers.” When the representative of the Protective Union tailed on the dry goods man the late ter urged the same excuse, as if it was a se rious ofieusc not to smile. Doubtless the girl carried a heavy heart. To smile on #2 n week is not easy for most people. The employer, however, paid that #2, and the union got the poor girl another and a bet ter place, where smiles were not con sidered necessary, and it cost her nothing. It costs no girl unything to enlist the ser vice* of the union. That Tu one of the prin ciples on which it was founder). It is a so ciety that does a great deal of good with a Jery little money, not to protect idling, frivolous women, but women who work. Aersording to the Hecretory’s report, the union has anwer<vi since Its isttabllshmeut, in the time of the civil war and up # to Jan uary, PW7, #10,415 application*, furnished 41,107 employments, prosecuflfi 10,128 com plaints iif fraud, recovered and paid to "orkmg women 57, in Mini* averag ing 111 4U Girls ot all sortsof vocation* go to the of 'hit to lodge tWr complaints. Typo writers and stenographers go often to com plain that the lawyers for whom they have been working won’t pay them. But the lawyers do pay after they receive that little opening letter, which is simply an announce ment that they will be dragged into court and imprisoned if they'don’t pay. Actresses who can’t get their pay from managers of traveling companies, washwomen who can’t get at the people they have washed for to collect their dues, waiters in restaurants who get on an average of $3 50 a week when they get it at ml, fan and necktie makers who more often than others work for nothing, and sewing girls in many dif ferent branches of trade are constant pat rons and beneficiaries of the Women’s Protective Union. It often takes some time to teach a dis honest employer that a poor girl ran collect what he owes her, if he sets out to prevent. Men are generally convinced, when they see the prospect of fifteen days in jail star ing them in the face. But the female em ployers with no such sword hanging over their heads are more inclined to fight. The young man who serves the papers on delinquent employers has many thrilling ex periences. He is "a familiar figure to some of them. A few days ago he went to the house of a dressmaker to serve a paper, and the latter, seeing him from afar, prepared to meet him. When he knocked at the door a pail of slops was showered on him from an upper window, but he served the paper. The Nun received this tetter recently: “I have been notified by the Women’s Protective Society of 19 Clinton place to Ca certain woman a certain amount due for employment. Now, if I should re fuse to obey the summons from the court to show cause why I should not pay it what would be the result of default ? Could I be imprisoned under the law of 1886, or any other law? This woman has taken advan tage of the above society and myself, as she is not worthy of the amount claimed. “M. D.” If M. D. is a man, and he lets the case go by default, he may meet an officer some day who will invite him to board in Ludlow street awhile. If M. I), will go to court and convince the Judge that the woman does not deserve the money, then he won’t have to pay; otherwise he will. If a poor girl works for a man honestly, the best thing he caa do is to pay them. MALIGNANT TUMORS. The Horrible Disease that Killed a Res ident of North St. Louis. From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Henry Ahley, a well-known saloon-keeper of the northern part of the city,died in great pain yesterday afternoon from the effects of malignant carbuncle, a disease which, wherever it has appeared, has puzzled the doctors and baffled all the medical skill which has attempted to stop its always fatal progress. Ahley’s saloon was on the corner of Broadway and Angelrodt street. He was a man 40 years old. stout and healthy, and had been a moderate drinker for yeai-s. Seven weeks ago a swelling appeared on the back of his neck, red, and very painful to the touch. He supposed it was an ordinary boil, and paid it little at tention at first. The lump grew larger, and the area affected by the soreness in creased. He began to complain of shooting pains radiating from the tip of the swelling, and his whole neck began to stiffen and ache. He then sent for a physician, who pro nounced the boil a carbuncle and treated it. Ahley’s condition, however, was uot im proved by the medical attention, the appli cations to his neck or the internal medicines. The carbuncle increased in size rapidly, and every day more of the neck became involved in its painful growth. He could not sleep at all, and all the functions of his body be came disordered. The pains darting from the centre of the swelling ran up into his head and down into his back and chest, and he had to be put into a condition of complete insensibility before he could obtain relief from them. Other phy sicians w-ere summoned in consultation with the first, and the disease was pronounced malignant carbuncle. It had obtained a deadly liold upon the system of the saloon-keeper by this time, and his progress toward Heath was sure. Swellings began to appear upon his back and chest, small lumps the size of a pea at first, ex quisitely painful, each one the centre of a circle of shooting pain. When lanced each of these carbuncles showed a small, hard core. They grew larger and their number increased every day. The patient was con stantly delirious and in awful pain. The carbuncles on the back and chest grew to the number of eighty, and then the ex hausted vitality of the patient succumbed to the disease, and he died. His body, when death had ended his sufferings, was emacia ted and his features sunken so that the ac quaintances who came to the house to offer the family their sympathy were unable to recognize it. Malignant carbuncle is a blood disease so rare that nine of ten physicians have never seen it. and it is rarely discovered and treated intelligently until it has planted its roots in the system of the patient. After that treatment has always been hopeless, and physicians have found that all they could do was to alleviate the suffering of the moribund person. Medical reports have no mention of the disease attacking a woman, and the men whose cases have been noted are those of a full habit, nlegnmtic disposition and the blonde type. The most celebrated case which has been discussed by the medical authorities in this country was that of a Now York alderman, who died last year. His symptoms from the begin ning were precisely those of Ahtey’s, but with him the disease ran its course in a shorter time, and he died in less than a month. A WOMAN’S CONFIDENCE GAME. Ingenious Device of a Parisian Wom an to Rob Afflicted Persons. From the London Telegraph. A woman named Roy has just been con demned to three months’ imprisonment for larceny, committed under peculiar circum stances. Hhe used to walk about the street s of Paris in the daytime, and when she no ticed a crowd around a chemist’s shop—an inevitable sign that an accident had oc curred—she went into the establishment to see the victim. If the injured (icrson were unconscious, the good Samaritan, Mme. Roy, immediately claimed him or her as her own, unless, of course, the object of the chemist’s care had an aprearance of abject poverty. In this way she succeeded in getting the victim put into a cab. He was her cousin, her brother-in-law, or the husband of a dear friend, and everybody lielieved her anil praised her for her tender solicitude or deep disinterestedness. She got into the vehicle with her charge, and during the drive to a fictitious address she contrived to ease the insensible or half dozed victim of watch, chain and money. “Madame” then got out, told the cabman to drive on to the address given, adding that she would rejoin him after she had called for a friend who was ulso interested in know ing about the accident. This able female was found out while she was taking a person in an epileptic fit to a false address. The patient became sudden ly conscious while the charming Samaritan was fumbling in his pockets, and the situa tion feebly dawned uponJiitn. By exercis ing a little duplicity lie was able to signal to the cabman to stop, and the doods and do ings of Madame Roy were later on revealed to all men. Consumption, Wasting Diseases, And general debility. Doctors disagree as to the relative value of Cod Liver Oil and Hy pophovphites; tho one supplying strength and flesh, the other giving nerve power, and acting as a tonic to the digestive and entire intern.

Lord Warwick Charging a Shilling for a View of His Castle. From the New York World. Warwick Castle, which is one of the great feudal castles of England, affords a very handsome revenue to its present occu pant, the Earl of Warwick, through shilling admissions being charged to view all ex cept the private living apartments. Up to within a few years ago there was no admis sion fee. Then the butler and the house keeper were jx>rmitted to show people through at certain hours of the day, and they were permitted to pocket the fees paid them. The results was that these two peo ple accumulated a fortune during their twenty years' service, and have now set up as magnates of county kitchen circles. To quote the language of one of their rural ad mirers, they have “an ’ouse of their h’own nearly as big as the cahrsle, and more ’orses and carriages as the h'Earl ’itnself.” The present Earl now takes this revenue to himself. At the porter’s lodge you are told that tickets can be bought at the little humble house in the feudal row, under the lofty battlements of this most aristocratic abode of one of the greatest peers of the realm. You visit this house and there your money is taken through a little wicket, and in ex change you are given a ticket which en titles you to be shown through the castle. Commissionaires are on duty there, and they display the treasures and the beauties of the place with the same business-like method and manner of people in charge of any of the show places in London. The money deposited by the visitor, finds it way to the bank to the Earl’s credit, affording him at the present time a clear net income of fully $15,000 a year. Sound Travels 2,000 Miles. {from the Youth's Companion. Many readers will call, to mind the red sunsets of two or three years ago, and that these were accounted for by many persons upon the supposition that the upper air was filled with fine dust from the eruption of Krakatau, in Java. This eruption occurred in the month of August, 1883. Whether it was the cause of the red glow in our sky or not we may never be able to show positively. But the distance to which the sound of that explosion has been heard was found to have been remarkable. That same year the English yacht Mar chesa was cruising in the Malay archipelago as far east as New Guinea. Mr. Guillentard, who wrote the journal of that cruise, re lates an interview with a Dutch missionary in this latter island, from which it appears that the sound was heard at that great distance. “Mr. Van Hasselt was eager to learn what news we could give the civilized world. We had little to tell, with the exception of the eruption at Krakatau. Of the appalling amount of destruction it had caused we were unaware, but we gave him the few particulars which had reached Gorontalo. “He at once told us, greatly to our astonishment, that the noise of tno explo sions had been audible at Dorei, and, going into the next room, brought his diary, iu which, under the date of Aug. 27, an entry had been made to the effect that sounds as of distant cannonading, which they had imagined to proceed from a volcanic erup tion, had been heard that day. “The natives, we were told, had also noticed it on the previous day—when, iu fact, the outburst was at its height. “By the missionaries the volcano at Ternate or in Some part of the Moluccas was supposed to be in action. It enables one partially to realize the terrific nature of the eruption when the map shows Dorei to be distant 1,710 miles from Karakatau.” PAIN fholer&Morbus ■Jrajnps I o * l e gjiarit\oe^ Complaints jlYSentery cWll Cured by-& teaspoon ful of PerryDavisPm filler in a little fit ilk; or Suprar and Water Au.
