From Phi .adelphia Times.

monte emigrsnls slept Friday night
upon the shed-covered wharf OF the Red
Star line, at the foot OF Christian street.
Away back in the time OF Luther, the
Anabs ptsts, religious sect differing
from the Baptist profession OF faith in 4
few particulars, sprung INTO exlstsnce IN
Zurich, Switzerland. Worried by per.
secution majority of their people were
driven through Germany and Austria,
until finally in 1888 they sett ed in the
province OF Faurien, IN the southern
part of Russia Here there appeared
among them new apostle In Memo
Symons or SimonIs Memo, the son OF
simon, who altered somewhat the tenets
of their faith and from whom subsequent.
" they obtained the title of hennonites,
by which they are known to-day. The
peculisritles of their belief are mainly
these; They uphold adult baptism, but
instead of immersion they practice
sprinklng in the ministration of the rite
They are all non contestants, being op-
posed TO war and refrslning generally
from petty qusrrels among each other
and they disspprove of the settling Of
difficulties in the courts and consequent
ly lawyers are tsboOed. The Mennonite.
are really q cross between the Bsptis and
Quaker. By their industrious habits
they gained the esteem of the Russian
Czsrs. and as they protested horror Of
w.r they were exempted from military
duty. In 1871, however, Alexander Ill
Withdrew this privilege and gave the
Mennontites notice that all those who had
not emigrsted by 1880 would DO subject
to the draft. Alarmed by this threat the
sturdy fsrmers-nesrly all of them TIL
the soil-got their families around them
and started towards America. The Car
alarmed at the wholesale hegirs, made
his order less severe, bu. the ball wss
started on the roll and it still continued
revolving towards this country.

Lacking After the Health Of shop
Girls.

The New York board OF health has APP
pointed an experienced physician to IN
duire into the effect upon the shop glr.s
of standing behind counters continuously
from morning till night, with but bret
respite in the middle of the day. and the
result of the movement, it is expected,
will be such relaxation OF the rules and
regulations OF shops as will afford them
relief. All the large Broadway stores
where women are employed, it is believ-
ed, will gladly sequiesce in srecommend:
alton that they have the privilege OF
sitting down when not waiting upon Gus.
TONERS. and with the wholesale establish
mepts thus leading of 1t is thought
the retailers will be pretty sure to follow.

The uprising of the Nez Perces (or
nose bored Indisns) in Idaho has begun
to resume formidable proportions Idaho
is Territory of the Pacific slope, hav
ing an area of s6,292 square miles, and
being for the most part mountainous.
It's population in 1870 WAS only 2O6SS,
of whom 1881 were Indians. 4,214
Chinese, and only l0,6lS whites. or the
whites 5OOl were males and 2Ol6
females. The spsrseness OF the white
population, especially OF the fighting
element, may be judged by these facts.
There has never been an organized out
break Of the Nez Peeces Indians before.
From the time OF Lewis and Clsrk's ex
petition; in 1903 G. these Indians have
been friendly. 1t is said that they are
not a nomsdIc tribe, like the Sious, but
have had fixed hsbitations for many
years, and have supported themselves by
