The women and children in the mills
and factories OF India are greatly OPP
pressed. OF all the classes that toll for q
livelihood, said the Earl Of Shaftesbury in
Parliament, "there is none so hopeless,
friendless and subdued as these wretched'
women. They are doubly slaves-slayes
to the mill owner and slaves to their hus-
bands, who, disregarding the sulIerings Of
their wives, revel at ease in their hard won
earnings. They have no public opinion
on,thcir behalf no press, no paid or vol.
untary agitators. In their distress they
lift their eyes to the Imperial Parliament,
and shall it be replied, my Lords, that ON
the side Of their oppressors there was
power, but that the oppressed had no
comforter?' Heaven forbid such an issue!
Fortysix years ago l addressed the House
OF Commons in a kindred appeal and they
heard me; l now turn to your Lordships
and implore you in the same spirit, for
Gods sake and His name, 10 have mercy
on the children. [Hear, hear"

tunnels as the Altoona and Bergen,
which are dashed through by from
one hundred and eighty heavy
trains day up, a series of concus-
sions which Is calculated to de-
tach blocks Of stone and other
debris much more suddenly than
any percolation of water In the San
Fernando tunnel will or can. Only
feur trains day pass through the
latter, two each way, and they take
exactly nine minutes in making
the mile and quarter. The shock,
therefore, as compared with that
which is daily sustained by East
ernland European tunnels, amounts
to scarcely bagatelle. 1t is only
Justice to the company to state
that 1t has been unremitting in its
vigilance to protect the lives of the

to our people that travellers should
not be deferred from CO ming to

Of the dangers Of the trip.

Speaking Out in Dreams.


A correspondent of the Richmond
Dispatch tells the following in a
letter from one of the springs:
An amusing incident occurred in
the cars Of the Virginia and Ten.
nessee road, which must be pre-
served in print. 1t is too good to
be lost. AS the train entered the
big tunnel, near this place, in ac-
cordance with the usual custom, a
lamp was lighted. A servant girl i,
accompanying her mistress, had
sunk into profound slumber, but
just as the lamp was lighted she
awoke, and half asleep, she imag
ined herself in the Internal regions.
Frantic with fright she implored
her Maker to have mercy on her, re-
marking at the same time, "the
devil has got me at last !"
Her mistress, sitting on the seat
in front of the terrified negress, was
deeply mortified, and called out to
her: "Mollie, don't make such a
noise; it is I, be not afraid.n
The poor African Immediately ex-
claimed: "Oh, missus, dat you ::
Jess what I 'spected. 1 alters
thought if eberI got to de bad place
l would see you dar."
These remarks were uttered with
such vehemence that not word
was lost, and the whole car be.
came convulsed with laughter.

and has never given the manage
ment the least cause for uneasi-
ness. This Is very valuable trait
in a cat; for If pussy once man
ages to catch the attention of the
audience, 1t is almost impossible to
save the performance from ridicule.
When Barry Sullivan was play
Ing Hamlet in Liverpool few
years ago, cat came upon the
stage in the middle of the scene
wherein the ghost first appears and
insisted upon rubbing herself
against the ghosts legs. The house,
of course, was convulsed and the
entire act was ruined.
Clara Morris at one time was
playing Camille in o Cincinnati
theatre. In the last act Camille
rises from her lounge and staggers
to the mirror. She regards her
sunken cheeks and wasted form,
andsays: "Ah! how changed am.
But the doctor has promised to cure
me. l will have patience" While
speaking these lines the actress
was horrified to see in the mirror
the reflection of a cat which was
purring but a few feet behind her.
She realized that something must
be done before the audience should
take In the situation, or the entire
effect of the scene would be lost.
She turned shortly round, so as not
to frighten the cat, and took her in
her arms. She stroked her gently,
and, with tears in her eyes, ,exclaim-
ed: "PoOr pussy, how soft and
warm is your beautiful fur! 1t is
many weeks, is it not, since I held
you like this in my arms =? Some
one else may soon take my place.
Alb, pussy, you will not have your
mistress with you long," With
these words she walked toward the
wings and set the cat free. The
audience supposed that she was
only speaking the lines of the play,
and the scene passed off without
any accident.
Macready was playing Macbeth
In Dublin, at Christmas, and the
tragedy was to be followed by the
inevitable pantomime. Among
the properties of the latter was u
live pig, which got loose while
Macready was making his great
speech in the banquet scene, and
ran across the stage squealing with
all its might and main. The whole
house was convulsed and Macready
was obliged to join in the general
merriment. The curtain was rung
down and there was no more peace
for Macbeth that night.
In E. L. Davenports first en-
gagement in this country there was
a most unexpected introduction of
the cat element into the Shak-
spearean drama. He was playing
Hamlet to crowded house at the
Walnut Street Theatre in Phila-
delphia, and in his sollloquy, as he
was deliberating whether or not he
would bear 1.-THE slings and arrows
Of outrageous fortune" fellow in
the gallery literally slung cat at
him. 1t bounded upon the stage,
slightly grazing the actor in its de.
scent, and escaped unhurt, with
the traditional luck of cats.

The Cleveland Herald says:
Lawyers in all parts of the country
report q marked falling off in liti-
CATION. This is no doubt bad for
the lawyers, but 1t is a healthful
sign of the times. It shows, for
one thing, that there are not 80
many bad debts made as formerly
that have to be collected by legal
process. 1t is protest, too, against
the laws delays and the excessive
cost Of justice which lawyers and
courts will do well to consider.
Going to law has become so tedious
and expensive an affair that unless
a man is very rich or very com mbat-
i've he will make great efforts to
find some other way of settling his
disputes. With the shrinkage in
legal business there must inevita-
bly, come shrinkage in the num-
ber of lawyers. They cannot all
get living at the profession.

n. Y. Sun, Dec. Goth.
In the Academy of Music one
evening last week, during the per.
formance OF Robert le Diable,u
just as Mile. Lido began singing
the aria "Robert, toi que Jaime"
the attention of the audience was
attracted by the appearance on the
stage of cat. Pussy looked at the
prima donna, calmly surveyed the
house, and then, walking down to
tho footlights, after blinking at
Signor Arditi, began the tour of the
orchestra rail. An usher, who had
been watching pussy's progress,
stood at the foot of the left aisle,
and, amid the litter of the house,
waited to receive her. AS she
reached the end of her journey he
caught her in his arms and trium-
phantly carried her out of the
house.
The wonder is that cats do not
intrude upon the stage more fre-
quently than they do, for there is
no theater without them. In most
