a Chance for Work.

Burdettc, writing from Canada to
the Burlington Hawkeye, says: Ono
morning walked out by myself.
All along the marsh road the farmers
were busy in the meadows moving
and turning their hay. A couple Of
regularly ordained tramps, idle and
aimless as myself, and much better
acquainted with the road, passed me,
and I tagged along in their lounging
wake. Presently the voice of far
lncr came over the sweet scented
meadow plif''sf fs'f ~

The tramps halted, o''IIaIIo your

"Do you-want to hirea" yelled tho
farmer. % 50
Judge of my establishment when
both tramps chorused back:
"Yes?"
Well, thought, they aren't Amer
ican tramps, anyhow, or they would
not disgrace The. profession in this
way. But ! stood still to listen and
watch, for it was an unusual sight
two tramps going to work.
"Then come over here y yelled the
farmer; and the two follows sprang
over the fence aud trudged across the
meadow with the brisk air of men
who really wanted work and meant
business. The farmer stood still
leaning OH his pitchiork, gazing in
tently at my motionless figure. Pc
scntly his voice broke the silence
once more:
ADon't that other fellow want to
hire, too ?"he yelled.
The two tramps turned ard glanced
at me for my reply. Ishook my head

out waiting TO hear the farmers NUT

American may die, but he never
works.

Womensand Girls in English
al Mines.

1t is somewhat startling fact that
there are still nearly 5 900 women
and girls employed about the coal
mines of Great Britain. In the
official summary ofpersons emplo, ed
in and about the mines, under the
Coal Mines Act lis stated that 81 fe-
nales under the age of ID years are
employed. Ofgirls between the ages
of l3 and IL thercarc 1888 employed ;
of young women above the age Of l6
there are no less than 1902 employed.
nnthe mines registered under the
Metalliferous Mines Act there is II
larger proportionate employment OF
females. AT the tender age OF be-
tween s aud Is years, there are 90
girls employed chiefly in tho Corn
wall district between the ages of IL
and Is. there are 9Sl girls employed
above these mines, Cornwall and the
North Wales district employing the
bulk and there are also l,74l females
above the age Of IS employed, Corn
wall, North Wales, and ireland EN-
ploying all these except 90; and OF
this score, somewhat singularly, the
chief part are employed in the North
Of England, which has been remarka-
bly, free from women's work in the
unfit employment Of mining. The
proportion Of women employed, is
said 10 be decreasing; but the tact
that girls of such tender ages are put
to mining operations, or 10 work
"above ground" at the mines, is a
sign that the unsatisfactory symptom
is not likely to entirely die out

Railway Birds

An engine dryer OH one of the
Scotch lines reports that he has
noticed that certain hawks of the
merlin or "stone falcon" species make
use of the passing of the trains for
predatory purposes. They fly close
behind the train, near the ground,
partly hidden by the smoke, but care
fully watching for the small birds
which, frightened by the train as 1t
rushes roaring past, fly UP in bewil-
dcred shoals; the mcrlins then, Will
the little birds are thinking more Of

is almost as good as lottery, since

WASHINGTON, December 2,-The
premature publication of tho message
still rankles the administration. To-
day the President gave orders not to
admit correspondents to the rooms of
the executive clerks at the White
House, where heretofore they have
been admitted. This reflection on
correspondents here Is wholly uncalled
for and ppmos with poor grace from
Nv. Hayes, who has given out mes
sagos frequently in advance .of their
communication TO congress, thereby
being as discourteous TO congress as
he now charges the lress with being.

npgpeed the papers publishing the

DRAMATIC.

Lotta'closed a very successful en-
gagement of four nights at Leubric's
theater last might, appearing as "Zip'i
before a large, and, as usual, very
%appreciative audience. The little lady
was never in better or more sprightly
mood, and she did her part
with Eest aavoring il with the usual
cOmicalities, aud at times carrying her
auditors suddenly from roars of
laughter, at her ridiculous antics, to
feelings Of sympathetic sadness at her
illustrations Of the tender features of
human life. The play of Zip is
one ofthe best in her repertory, and it
contains all of the necessary
elements to afford Lolita a chance to
display her extraordinary talents. The
plot is rather better than any other in
her list. five except her Little Nell"
and the Warehouses from Dickens
Curiosity Shop, which the esteemed
actress did not perform here. Lolita is
deservedly popular and it win be
many a long day ere we
look upon her like again, She has
no reason to regret her visit to us this
season, for the audiences were all
large at each of her four representa-
tions, despite bad weather and popu-
lar attractions in other quarters. We
may not have another visit from Lolita
for two or three winters, and mayhap
never again. 1t is known that the
little auburn haired lady has myriads
of admirers, and there is nc telling
but that she may marry one of them
before she grows to be an old maid.
