Co-op erative Labor

The Chicago Post which leads off in
the movement for cooperative labor, has
at length, it seems, induced initiatory steps
to be taken for an experimental trial.
The Post says:
We are told that few gentlemen in
this city have taken the trouble to verify
the figures recently given in this paper
as the cost, per dozen, of household
washing in large establishments in which
steam machinery and aldiyision of labor
have superseded the old methods; and
that they find them to be essentially
correct. OF course, they are now engaged
in the endeayor- to organize company
for building laundry for their own
convenience, to which each may Danish
his most formidabled ometic foe. We do
not doubt their success. el5 Gaa~
We repeat that the cost of washing, in
large laundry for family garments,
would not be more than dollar and q
quarter per 100 pieces, if there were
business enough to keep the establishment
constantly employed.

Butchery of an Entire Family
Capture of the Murderer.

From the Louisville Courier, November 80.
A little over week ago a frightful
tragedy was enacted ia Fentress county,
Tennessee, near the kentucky line. There
lived in that section a family composed
of an old lady some 80 years of age, and
her three grandchil dren-one a young lady,
another boy of12 and the third small
girl, In the neighborheod was man
named Logsdon, ill-favored of face and of
little character, who in some way, became
cognizant Of the ia ct that the old lady had
in her possession considerable amount
of money, the back pay OF her dead son,
who had been a soldier, and he resolved
to secure it at all hazards Proceeding
one night to the house she occupied, Logs
don, with knife and revolver, murdered
the grandmother and grand daughters
and left the boy for dead also. all the
money he found, however, was $75 and
with this hefed. The boy, who fortunately,
survived, next day told the tale of the
bloody work of the night, and the Sheriff
of Fentress county, as soon as he could
be notified, started Immediately in pursuit
of the murderer, with warrant. He passed
through Clinton county, in this State,
where he was joined by the sheriff. of
Clinton, and together the two Sherifs
made their way to Hustonville, Lincoln
county. Here they captured the murderer
at the house of his father, even before he
had changed the clothing he wore when
he committed the terrible crsme, and
which bore the bloodstains of cruel mut
der. ssrf s-agfi
1t was found that Logsdon, on reach
ing his fathers house, had sent for heavy
lock, which he desinged placing on the
door, and that he had also sent woman
and boy for powder, lead and caps.
These parties were detained. however 1t
was evident he intended making des-
perate resistance, but the officers expert
enced little or no difficulty in effecting his
arrest. He was taken back to Fentress
county, where he WILL doubtless, be made
to suffer the extreme penalty of the law.

Days Without Might.

Nothing strikes . stranger more forci-
bly, if the visits Sweden at the season Of
the year when the days are longest, than
the absence Of night. DR.. Baird related
some Interesting facts. He arrived at
Stockholm from Gottenburg, 400 miles
distant, in thean1orning; in the afternoon
he went to see some friends. He returned
about midnight, when it was as light as
it is in England half an hour before sun
down. You could see distinctly, but all
was quiet in the street; it seemed as if
the inhabitants had gone away or were
dead The sun in June goes down in
Stockholm little before ten o'clock
There is great illumination al night, as
the sun passes round the earth toward the
north pole, and the refraction of its rays
is such that you can see to read at mid
night without any artificial light. The
first morning DR.. Baird awoke in Stock
holm he was surprised to see the sun shin
ing in his room He looked at his watch
and found it was only three o'clock. The
next time he awoke it was five o'clock
but there was no person i'll the streets
The Swedes in the cities are not very in
dustrious. There is mountain at tht
head of the Gulf Of Bothnia, where on ths
Dist of June, the sun does not appear t.
go down at all. A steamboat goes. VI
from stockholm for the purpose Of con
lveying those who are curious to witness
the phenomenon 1t occurs only ont
night. The sun reaches the horizon, you
can see the whole face of it, and in fv,
minutes more it begins to rise. At thu
North Cape, latitude72o, the sun does no
go down for several weeks. In June i
would be 25o above the horizon at mid
night In the winter time the sun disap
pears and is not seen for weeks; then i
comes and remains fifteen or twenty min
Iutes,, after which it descends, and fnall,
adoes not set at all, but makes almost
circle around the heavens. Dr., Baird wa
asked how they managed in those lati
tudes with regards to hired persons, AM
what they consider day. He replies
that they worked by the hour, and lively
4 hours would be considered days work
4 Birds and animals take their accusteme
rest at the usual hour, whether the su
lgoes down or not.

above the age Of twenty one years, the

universal suffrage, we suspect the consti-
tutional amendment, article ID which
provides that the several States may reg
ulate suffrage each for itself, but, in pro-
portion as suffrage is restricted, represen-
tation shall berestricted, is not considered
a settlement by General Grant, but rule
apt to result in endless troubles, from the
conflicting plans likely to be adopted
among States. Hence no doubt, General
Grant has concluded that an amendment
making universal manhood suffrage the
supreme law of the land, in all the States
and Territories, is the only decisive solution
of this otherwise embarrassing question"

THE. ENGLISH PARLIAMENT. - The
statute law of England provides that a
Parlia ment shall not continue more than
seven years. The Sovereign, however, is
at liberty to dissolve the Parliament and
order the election of new one whenever
he thinks it expedient to do so so, that
the Parliaments do not average more than
half their legal term. The Parliament in
in existence at the commencement of this
century was dissolved June 3d. 1902. From
a list before us, we find that since then
there have been eighteen Parliaments,
the first assembling November Is, 1902,
and the last has finished it's work. This,
including the intervals between the dis
solution of one Parliament and the assem-
bling of the next, gives an average of
three years and eight months; but exclud-
ing those intervals the average is less
than three years and a half The longest
Parliamsnts of the century were the
sixth, which continued from April 81, 1890
to June 2, 1896 six years, one month, and
