The State Inspector Finds Many of Prosecutions Yet State Factory Inspector McAbee has been upon another tour, aring which he visited factories in Nobles- vllle, Cicero, Atlanta, Kokomo, Sims, Swayzee, Marlon, Falrmount, Sum- mitvilie and Anderson. He says he found a good many children employed in some of these places, and be was assured by the factory owners that the law will be complied with from this on.

In one factory he found one child only eleven years old. "Some persons have wondered why am not prosecuting the factory owners that we violating the law," said he. I made up my mind that I would not begin any prosecutions during my first tour. If, after a reasonable period of time has passed the law is not complied with, I will insist that the penalty be applied." ANYTHING But a Klondjke Success Was the Kloudyke Club's Dance- The Klcndyke club attempted to give a dance at Dolan McHale's ll lasts night, but the affair proved anything but a Kloadyke success.

Be had skipped with the cash. Then, notwithstanding the entreaties of the dancers, Mr. Fornoff and his party of musicians boxed up their instruments and quit the ball room in disgust. I'hristmastide Concert. The Chrlstmastide concert given at th First Presbyterian church last evening attracted an appreciative audience but one less in numbers than the excellence' of the entertainment merited: The first part of the programme included two numbers by the chorus choir of the church augmented to forty voices, a solo by Louis Elchorn and a song by the Chimes quartette of young ladies.

Part second was the cantata "Bethlehem," which treats of the birth of Christ, tha flight into Egypt and the return. The leading parts were taken by Misses Gertrude Winter. Frances Lux, Edna Stevens: Messrs, W. T. Gifte, harles Martin, Roy Johnston, John M.

Aahby, accompanist was Miss Miriam M. Mullen. The chorus was well drilled and worked in splendid unison and the solos, duetts, and trios were finely rendered. The success of the entertainment again reflects credit on the ability and persevering work of the director, Mr. Eichorn.

The net earnings of the Pennsylvania lines east ot Plttsburg for the year 1897 are nearlng 121,000,000. a total not reached since 1891, which, on the conservative basis of 1896, would show $9,549,000 earned to be disbursed in dividends, or 7 per cent, leaving considerable balance in the company's treasury.
