Woman Suffrage.

The National Woman Suffrage AS
sociation has issued call for its tenth
annual convention, to be held at Masonic
Hall, corner of Sixth avenue and Twen-
ty-third street, New York city, May
"a. The object of the convention is
thus set forth in the call:
The great effort of the National Wo-
man Suffrage Association this year will
be for sixteenth amendment, which
shall specifically declare woman's right
to the ballot. The right of petition is
woman's only recognize d method of in
fluencing legislation; a million names to
the Forty-fifth Congress would have
great moral influence upon Congress
and the nation. The United States al
ready has three classes of voters-the
black man, naturaliZed male citizens
and amnestied rebels; each of these has
Il right to the ballot under United
States authority. Though by decision
of the Supreme Court in the case of
Virginia L. Minor, of Missouri, all
women were remanded to the States,
yet as the National Government had
power to invest with the ballot in the
above instances, it has like power to en-
franchise woman.
The New York State Woman Stuff
rage Society is called to meet at the
same place on the following day. Com.
munications may be sent to Mrs. Ma.
tilda Joslyn Gage, Fayetteville, N. Y.

A Slight Mistake,

The present archbishop of Dublin,
the gifted author on "Study of Words, -
is not in very robust health, and has
been for many years apprehensive of
paralysis. AT recent dinner in Dub
lin, given by the lord-lieutenant of Ire
land, disgrace sat on the right of his
hostess, the Duchess of Abercorn. In
the midst of the dinner the company
was startled by seeing the archbishop
rise from his seat, and still more star
tied to hear him exclaim, in dismal
and sepulchral tone, sit has come, it
has comer'
"What has come, your grace?' eager,
ly cried half dozen voices from differ
ent parts of the table.
, "What have been expecting for
twenty years." solemnly answered the
archbishop-''a stroke of paralysis. I
have been pinching myself for the last
twenty minutes, and find myself entire
ly without sensation"
pardon me. my dear archbishop" "
said the Duchess, looking up to him
with somewhat quizzical smile-''par,
don me for contridicting you, but it is
I that you hare been pinching."

The age of romance is not yet past
in italy, as brigandage still exists to
an alarming extent in Sicily. Citizens
and travellers are often seized by the
outlaws carried off to their caves and
kept there for weeks until ransomed by
their friends. The brigands aresmostly
young men of from IS to "a years of
age; they wear the time honored cos
tune of velvet jacket and breeches, and
60 we'll armed with knife, gun and pis-
tolls. They usually come to a violent
end, though some voluntarily abandon
their vicious courses. The head robber
among them all is known as Leono, and
the next morning after the appointment
of new prefect, that officer found on
his study table, the chiefs card with
his compliments. The cause of the
evil is found in the poverty Of the peo'
pie, owing to the land being in the hands
of large proprietors, the non-develop
ment of the country and the various
obstacles to the administration of JUS
tice. The people, also, often secretly
aid the outlaws and give them protec'
tion.

The negro women of the South can't
forget the days before Kingdom Come as
easily as do some of the male blacks. 1t
was South Carolina colored wife who
Drained her husband with an axe last
Fall, when he told her that he had been
persuaded to vote the Democratic ticket;
and in Louisiana, last Saturday, a
prominent negro politicians household
was deserted by his indignant wife,
when she heard he was having a
loye-feast Jubilee with the Nichols
party in Odd Fellows Hail.
Feminine instinct is a bigger thing
than prophecies any time, ,and we dun
no'' but "mebe'' the Dinahs are ''done'
taking the proper poise in these politi
cal policy matters.

Photographing the Heartbeat

One of the most remarkable applica-
tion of photography is that by which it
is now made to register, and in the
most accurate manner, the mechanical
motion of the heart. The device by
which this result is attained is, indeed,
a triumph of inventive skill. 1t con-
sists of a thin india-rubber bag, to
which short glass tube is attached;
sufficient mercury is poured into the
apparatus to fill the bag and portion
of the tube, and the instrument is then
placed over the heart to be examined.
Arranged in this manner, every pulsa-
tion of the ..heart is indicated by a cor
responding movement of the mercury
in the tube, and, by suitable photo
graphic apparatus, provided with It
moving sensitive slip of paper, per-
feet registration of the extent and rate
of the pulsations is obtained. The in
teresting fact is made known by this
process that the fall of the pulse
sometimes takes place in successive hor-
izontal lines, the column re-ascending
two or three times before falling al
together.

intensely alarmed. The force organ
lied to patrol the city remained on
duty all night. The arrival of the
Duquesne Grcys city troops had also
nm assuring effect, but not sufficient to
quiet the alarm. This morning the
rumor ola renewal of hostilitics were
set ailoat, and reports that telc-
graphmen had joined in deman-
ding advance of wages under
threats of violence if refused,
served to renew the excitement of
yesterday and every person seemed
to be in state of feverish anxiety.
About 10 o'clock the Mayor received
despatch from the Burgess of
Elizabeth borough, stating that 700
armed miners had left that place
with the avowcd intention of joining
the rioters. This news for time
created a panic, but large force OF
citizens was organized and marched
to the wharf, headed by the Mayor,
to meet the boat ON which they were
coming. When the boat arrived il
was anchored out in the middle OF
the river and the Mayor and Gen.
Neglev boarded the boat and inter-
viewed the men. They were found
not to be armed and stated that they
had no intention whatever of joining
the rioters, but had come to Offer
their services to protect citizens and
private property. Up to noon nc
further acts of violence have
been committed, but the work of or,
ganizing for defence is progressing
vigorously. 1t is hoped the worst il
now over.

FURTHER FROM ST. LOUIS.

ST.. LOUIS, July 23.-Everything is
very quiet at noon in Union depot and
in yards of Union Railway and
Transit Co. This morning stock
train was allowed to cross
the bridge, but none will be permit
ted to pass after IL o'clock. The en-
ployes of the Transit Co. who do du-
ty in East st. Louis, Is in number
struck last night with the fircmen
and brakemen of the railroads. EN-
ployes of the company on this side
of tho river, whose duties
are performed at and in Vi
entity of Union depot in
moving trains in the yards through
the tunnel and across the bridge have
not formally struck, but they are idle
for the reason that there is nothing
for them to do, as the strikers across
the river will not permit freight trains
to}pass as the strike does not extend
to crews of passenger trains. The
latter come and go as usual. The
transit company rescinded their order
for reduction of 10 per cent. Oh wa.
ges last night, and notified the en-.
ployes to that effect, but SO far the
latter have taken no notice of it. Sc
far all trains of the Missouri, Pacific
and st. Louis, Kansas City & North.
ern roads are going out and coming
in as usual, there being no strike OF
these roads yet, nor have the en-
ployes manifested any disposition te
take action in the matter.

The United States army is big
thing. Something like tomtit with
. peacock's tail to it.
Last year when war was raging
on the frontier, and Sitting Bull
was slaughtering reckless COM
mands, and generally out-maneuver-
ing the United States troops, the
General and Lieutenant General OF
the army, whose united pay amounts
to some thirty thousand dollars pei
annum, were at the opposite extreme
of the continent from the scene o.
hostilities, enjoying themselves OF
picnic excursions and harmless tours
of investigation to coy places like
West Point where time is danced
away by carpet knights.
This year, when all is quiet on tn,
frontier, Sherman and Sheridan ar,
off on royal junket, with their gor
geous stats, to the cooling breezes o
Montana, Colorado and Wyoming
while war, rapine and bloodshet
reign in the heart of the country,
No well regulated country shoult

THE STRIKE IN CHICAGO GENERAL.
CHICAGO, July 24.--The strike of
railroad hands has become general in
Chicago. 1t was inaugurated last
might as reported in these dispatches
and by strike among the switchmen
ON the Michigan Central road, and
this morning the entire force Of the
road joined them. These men who
claim that by the arrogance, unkind-
ness and penuriousness Of the man
agement they have virtually been
forced into the strike, gathered in
force this morning and visited the
other railroad men in the city and
induced them all with the exception
of the employees of the Northwestern
railroad to strike. Consequently at
this hour none but passenger trains
are on the road, all others being laid
up. A mob, among whom are but
few strikers, but which 10 largely
composed Of disreputables, is circu-
lating to the number Of about 500, on
the west side and compelling all
classes of workmen to quit. The
railroad offices present a deserted
appearance and the yards are quiet.
No depredations are being commit
ted. The policy of most roads is to
send away as many cars as possible.
