A trlha'e Wife. .
There are some features of a pro
longed strike that do not get into the
"labor news" columns of the papers,
such, instance, as the following: A
young married woman, who has a hus
band and two children one child
four years old and the other four
months has lately, obtained some
work in the way of scrubbing and
cleaning at a private bouse kuown to
the Listen ar. Her husband to a stone
cutter aad has been on a strike since
March 1. His wages were four dollars
a day, but he wants eight hours. If
he gets any help from tho union tho
wife does not know it, as he brings her
nothing home. She has to support her
children and the husband, too. She
leaves the children in a day-nursery
while she is at work, paying for the ,
privilege five cents per day. She Is a
slender woman, less than thirty years
old, and a native of Connecticut. She
wants her husband to get work, but
thinks that eight hours a day would
do bim mors harm than good. Tho
wives are generally opposed to strikes,
and one would suppose that with such
experiences they would be. This
womsn was asked why tho husband
did not at least take care of the . chil
dren while she supported them, and
she added: "He I Ob, he never
does any work in the bouse.' But
one would think that he might at least
make nsbift to earn the five cents for
tho day-nursery. Boston Transcript.
