who works for Mr.. Geo. p. Kellogg,
of Benton, having partaken of too
much corn in the juice, fell into the
ditch near the scale works on yester-
day and woul2 doubtless have per-

of two boys, who discovered him.
He was taken to the "Hotel de

Fha Waukegaa Patriot says !;

A. B. Sanders, of Benton, showed as this
week a Continental Ten Dollar Bill, CT the
state of New York. such money as her Rev.
olutionary soldiers were paid off in at the
close of the war. It reads as follows:
"This bill shall pass current in all payments
in this State, for Ten Spanish Milled Dollars
Or the value thereof, in gold or silver ae-
cording to the Resolutions of the Convention
of New York, on the Thirteenth day Of Au-
gust, 1776.
'sI'is death to counterfeit.
''Printed by Samuel Young. in the year
1776."
It is decidedly curiosity, as but very
few similar bills are in general circulation.

We learn from the Kenosha Union of last
week that "Mr. 9. Snyder who has been
connected with the Union Office since last
june" special correspondent of the Milwau-

correspondent of the Chicago Sunday Times,
''has resigned his position in the Un'en

AFTER CHRISTMAS.
BIZ MRS. 8. NJ. WALSH

/ have lately heard secret.
Heard il, too, from truthful lips;
Santa Claus. the sly old fellows
Makes his after Christmas trips.
I've been told he has discovered
Many things that cause him pain,
Discomfort and hateful envy
Thoughtful love in vain.
He has seen his choisest presents
Torn and broken and defaced;
Santa Claus, though rich and lavish,
Frowns on wilful, wicked waste.
All unseen he watched some children
In their pleasant home at play
With the very toys he gave them
On the Merry Christmas day.
Johnny's rocklng-horse was splendid;
Gaily decked in red and gold;
Katy's doll, as fair creature
AS child could wish to hold;
Johnny's horse was kicked and battered,
Just because &c couldn't neighl
Thought his papa might have bought him
Two live horses and sleigh
Katy wished her doll was larger;
Wished its eyes were black, not blues
Finally grew vexed and threw it.
Broke its lovely head in two!
Santa Claus looked grave and troubled
Shook his head and went away;
s'I'll remember this he muttsred.-
ION another Christmas day! !"
Then he peered in dismal places
Where he vas not wont to go;
Where the hungry, shivering children
Never any Christmas know,
And his heart was sad and sorry
That he could not help them all;
And he thought in grief and anger
OF the broken horse ard doll.
AS he took his onward journey,
He was seen to drop tear,
And I'm certain that he whispered,
s'I'll remember this next year r.
But he has so much to think OF,
And so many things to get,
Can't the Johnnies and the Katies
Think of it, if he forget?

The hreus Zetung calls attention to the large
emigration of Mennonites who leaving
Germany for conscience sake" The circun-
stances are these. These sectaries object to
war, and have avoided military service. A
cabinet Order" issued last year, permitted
them to elect between service the fighting
corps, or in the train or medical department. t.
A meeting of delegates was held. small
minority proposed to give up the opposition to
military service altogether. A large majority
resolved to accept the alternative allowed them
by the War Office, and join the train or hosp-
tai organization. small body determined to
stand by the old traditions of the body. Some
time in the spring, at religious meeting, one
of the first class was refused the communion +,
on the ground that by joining the army he had
ceased to belong to the Mennonite body. A
prosecution was instituted. The minister who
refused to admit the soldier to communion was
sentenced to imprisonment, on the ground that
the May Laws made it punishable offence to
inflict ecclesiastical penalties any one for
the performance of municipal State duties.
The strict Mennonites came to the conclusion
that Prussia was no longer the country for
them, and they have been leaving for America.
They are we'll to-do people, industrious, sober
and steady; and their emigration is loss in
many ways for Germany. The Hreuz Zeitung
declares that every family who go out take
with them from $50, 900 to 800, 900 marks (S45Oo
to $9o,Ooo); and every emigrant steamer leav
ing Germany takes some of them away. This
newspaper observes that it is well known the
May Laws were only aimed at the Catholic
clergy. But wise men foresaw at the time
that no one could tell how widely mischievous
they might become.

COAL MINING SUSPENDED.
OVER THIRTY THOUSAND MINERS AND LABOR
ERS IDLE.

PORT RICHMOND, Pa, Sept. 1.-The reddc.
tion of wages went into effect to-day in the
coal districts operated by the Philadelphia and
Reading, the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern, and the Delaware and Hudson Coal Com
panies. The decrease is ten per cent on the
old rates of pay, which sends the miners wages
down to very meagre sum. During the past
month the miners and laborers did not average
Sl2 for the entire months work The suspen-
sion is almost complete in the Schuylkill,
Lackawanna and Wyoming regions, and also
in the Lehigh region. meeting of the Lehigh
operators will be at HuZleton tomorrow to
arrange q basis of rates for shipping coal to
the seaboard, and to determine upon the miners
wages. 1t is thought the operators will follow
the action of the others and make ten per
cent reduction. The number of unemployed
miners and laborers in the region is about
twelve thousand.
The miners working in the Lackawanns and
Wyoming regions, where the mines of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western and Della
ware and Hudson Companies are situated, are
preparing for a strike, and it is reported the
Lehigh men will join them At Hyde Park
meeting Of men employed by the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Company, it was re-
solved to fight the monopoles, and assist th cir
brethren in the fight. The entire number of
unemployed men 10 the various districts of the
northern coal fields is about so 900.
The lswlessness which has prevailed forsome
time past in the Lackawanna and Wyomin &
valleys is increasing daily. The desperadoes
who have terrorized the neighboring towns of
Scranton, Dunnore, Hyde Park, Greenwood,
outrages. Murders, robberies and incendiar-
ism are of frequent occurrence.
The operators of the Schuylkill region have
held another important meeting. and, although
they have accepted the terms of the Philadel-
phia and Reading Coal and Iron Company
under protest, it is believed they will be un-
able to live up to them at the present low prices
of coal. 1t has been resolved that each opera
tor try the experiment at his colliery or COL
lieries for a time. and then decide as to his
future course of action-operate or suspend.
1t is generally believed the latter will in the
end be the policy adopted 10y the operators.
The shutdown is almost general in that region
now. Those collieries now running will con-
tinue until the matter is definitely arranged
The idle mines will remain closed. There are
some 10 600 miners unemployed. The feeling
is very bitter against the company, and were
the operators also to reduce wages, it is quite
probable strike would be the result. The
Impression is current in we'll informed coal
circles that the suspension and reduction of
wages movements are but shrewd schemes on
the part of the companies belonging to the
lately dissolved combination to get the miners
ont on a strike and then use the trouble as an
excuse to hold back coal, and ultimately rush
it on the depleted market and force up prices

THE MILL WHEELS STARTING.
ONE FART OF THE COUNTRY LOOKING HorE
FULLY INTO THE FUTURE.

I
FALL RIVER, Sept. 1.-The cotton business
here has had sudden revival, and for the first
time since 1873, ali the mills are running at a
fair profit TO the manufacturers. This is a
great manufacturing centre, and when bus-
ness ls brisk here it is generally brisk through
out New England. On account of the reduc-
tions in wages, labor here costs no more now
than In England, and the operatives in Amer
those abroad. American goods, too, are well
able to compete with the English. OF the 30
600, operatives in Fall River, all are employ ed
except perhaps, few stragEIe.s.
MIR. Remington, a we'll K uuwn broker, saws :
" Although this revival was sudden, we do not
think that it is spasmodic 1t is pretty certain.
from the orders already received, that the mills
will be kept buBy for SIX mouJhs OF d year and
we may reasonably look forward to th 9 contin-
uation of fair business"
lrQulrer-Will wages he iucreasedR
Mr.. Remirgton-The mills are running on
orders received when prices were low down.
But il is probable, though not certain, that
| after October, when work will begin on the
more recent orders. wages will be advanced
somewhat. The South American orders do not
form large part of the total. We expect to
keep up trade :here, but in times of ordinary
prosperity, American mills would be kept busy
eenough supplying the demand of the United
working classes When the people have money
to spend for dress aud comfort, the mills do q
good business but when there is no work there
, is no pay, and no money 70 spend for cotton
CLOTH.
England has heretofore sapplied South AM
erica. Germany and France FIST supplied
that trade, bnt England supplanted them.
There is prospect now that Al.erica will sup.
plant England. Wecan sell as low as Eu gland
and our goods are certainly of as good quality
as the English.
The lack of water is seriously felt here. Ii
is also affecting the cotton and woolleu busi-
ness throughout the whole East. Fail River
can manufacture 130 600 pieces a week, but
owing to the want of water it is producing
only about l00, 900 pieces.
The operatives are already agitating for an
increase of wages. At a mass meeting, last
evening, attended by about thirteen hundred
persons, an address was adopted requesting
the manufacturers to give back the ten pei
| cent. reduction, seeing that an ample remuner
ative business for three months ahead was
assured. It is expected that the manufac
turers will return @ negative reply, although
ten per cent. on the first of October. There is
no probability of strike.

AssEMDLAGE OF THE SUFFRAGAN BISHOPS OF
THE ECCLESIASTICAL PRovINCE OF N. O.-Last
Wednesday the Right Rev. Bishops w II. Elder,
of Natchez, G. n. Dubuis, of Galveston, A. D.
Pellicer, of San Antonio, and D. Manucy, Vicar
Apostolic of Brownsville, assembled at the
Archie-episcopal residence in this city for the
purpose of agreeing on list Of names to be
forwarded to Rome in connection with the ap-
pointment of Bishop to the vacant See of
Natchitoches.
According to an established custom in this
country when such vacancy occurs, all the
Bishops of the ecclesiastical Province to which
it belongs unite in recommending to the Holy
Father the names of three priests being
ftted for the position. From these he generally
chooses, though without any obligation to do
so.

pose, the Right Rev. Bishop Elder presided

FOREST PLANTING IN FRANCE.-The
past spring has been very favorable to the
large areas in France lately planted in
forests. 1t is stated that 5000, 600 hectares
or IL, $50, 900 acres-about half the area of
Ohio-have become unproductive as agri
cultural lands. Pine trees without any
cultivation and very inexpensive super
vision can be made to grow upon these bar
rem acres, netting about 81, so per acre of
annual profit. This would add to the pro-
ductive capacity of these lands about $780,
600, 900 per annum. Other trees have been
planted with similar economic results, and
now landed proprietors are looking to tree
planting as means of utilizing their un-
productive acres.

THE ST.. JOHN Boys SoHooL.-It has been
regretfully announced, in the Church of st.
John the Baptist, that the re-opening of the
boys school has to be put off for another year.
The reason of this islthat there are no means on
hand with which to have the male department
of the schoolhouse put in a condition of ten
able repair. This is now the only obstacle in
the way of the return of the Christian Bro.
theirs to St. Johns. In the meantime the Rev.
Clergy of the parish recommend to their flock

near Thalia, under the direction of Miss c.
Barkley, a competent and experienced teacher.

The rapid growth of the Society OF St Vim
cent de Paul in this country is matter of
surprise. The first Conference in the United
States was founded at St. Louis in 1S45 by
Bishop Timon. The report of the Superior
Council of New York to the Council General
at Faris for the year 1875, shows that within
its Jurisdiction alone there ore 16 Councils and
l92 Conferences, while separate Superior Coun-
ellis have been founded at New Orleans, St.
Louis and Brooklyn. It is safe to assume,
therefore, that at least $50 Conferences are
now in existence within the United States.
