One of the Strikes.

| One OF the most serious OF the strikes now
prevailing at the East is the strike of the
freighthanders in New York city. 1t puts a
sudden stop to nearly all freight traffic on
the railroads and thus largely paralyZes no.
only the general business OF the city but the
effect is seriously felt in the distant west and
south AS to the righteousness of the strike
on the part Of the freight handlers committee
of the Board of Trade of New York City sub.
mits to that body these remarks:
The trunk lines of railroad between the
West and the seaboard recently struck for
higher wages or, in other words, advanced the
schedule rates of freight from 33 to 80 per
per cent. AT an average OF say II cents per
100 pounds this would amount to SO 40 per
ton. Following this the freight handlers
struck for an advance of 3 cents per hour or
30 cents per day. AS each man handles upon
an average about fourteen tons per day, the
advance asked by the freight handlers would
amount to little over two cents per ton or
about 1.1G0th part of the advance which the
railroads state they will levy upon the public
after July |. In the one case the advance asked
for is to exc out prccarous and scanty sub
sistence for laboring men, while the other is
arbitrarily levied upon the public without
consultation or announcement of reason, the
most plausible Of which, upon examination, j
would probably be found the alleged necessity
of paying dividends upon watered stock,
which, in equity Is not entitled to any return
whatever. If 1t were necessary for the rail.
roads to advance their rates, IN order that their
employees may receive reasonable advance
in wages, public opinion would sustain them
to that extent, but to determine upon an ex-
cessve advance IN freight rates and then re.
fuse the reasonable demands of laboring men
is an inconsistency which the public ludg-
ment is not likely to sustain.

How the Judge Crossed the Stream.

1--WE were riding along the road one chilly
day IN November" SAID Gen. James Craig,
taking about court business and legal talent
"when we struck a small stream that appeared
to be about thirty yards wide. Hello said
Judge Norton of Missouri, this is new stream
to me. How shall we cross 1t" Taking ad
vantage of his ignorance. pretended to survey
the situation, and after emerging from the
thicket solemnly inquired: Judge, can you
swimy Like fish, he replied, while his eyes
twinkled IN the expectation Of displaying his
ability In that direction. i can't said l, sc
suppose you strip off and swim across, testing
the depth as you 20, ana give me the advantage
of your experience All right he SAID, dis
mounting from his horse. Then he removed
all his clothes, tied them together, placed them
safely between his teeth, and started cautiously
into the creek. ! choked my handkerchief In
to my mouth to keep from laughing, while the
judge gravely waded across through exactly
four inches of water; but you would have dice
to see his look of unutterable disgust when ht
reached the opposite bank. His feet were blue
with mud, but his ankles were scarcely touch
ed by the water. 1t was three straight days be
fore he spoke TO me again. "-Philadelphid

A PRETTY SENTIMENT Nothing on earth
can smile but the race Of man. Gems may
flash reflected light but what is a diamond
flash compared with an eye flash and a mirth
flash? Flowers cannot smile; this is charm
which they cannot claim. The birds canno,
smile, nor can any living thing. 1t is the pre-.
rogative of man. 1t is the color which love
wears, and cheerfulness and joy-these three
1t is the light IN the window of the face, by
which the heart signifies that it is at home and
waiting. y face that cannot smile is like a
bud that cannot blossom, and dries up on the
stalk. Laughter is day and sobriety is night
and smile Is the twilight that hOvers gently
between both, and Is more bewitchlng than
either.

flow u Yankee Came Out Ahead.

An American had been Dragging for some
time IN public bar-room of various marvel.
GUS feats of swimming which he had wit
messed or performed, when an Engllshman,
who had listened IN silent incredulity, be-
thought himself that he would defeat or try
to defeat the boastful Colonel" with his own
weapons. The old country, he considered
vas able to beat the new at anythlng-even at
fbs-if her sons tried; so he suddenly spoke
up:
"Well, yes, Colonel" struck IN the Britisher
"those were big swims, i admit that you say
you've seen; but I've known one that beats
all yours hollow. Two years ago started
from Liverpool to New York in one OF the
Cunard boats. There was a little commotlon
and excitement on the wharf at leaving, and a
man dived into the water, but we took no par
ticular notice of it, Next morning we re.
membered it, though, for sure enough there
was man swimming abreast of US at the rate
of fifteen knots an hour. We called out to
him and heaved him a roap, but he refused all
assistance. At night, of course, we lost sight
Of him; but when the sun rose, there he was
again, striking out as lively as possible. And
so he stood by us all the way across, some
times diving under our keel, and coming up
on the other side; playing around US like a
dolphin, now on his back, now on his side
now turning heels over head over heels, wheel
fashion. But about two hours before we
reached New York, he began to forge ahead
and soon dlstanced US altogether; and when
we got alongside, we found him standing on
the quay, dressed to receive u.s."
The Yankee had eyed the speaker fixedly
during his narration. That's true yarn, |
spose, stranger" he said lnterrogatively.
"Oh, yes, quite true; saw it myself" was
the reply.
You saw that man swim across from Liv-
erpool to New York alongside your steamer
all the way?"
Exactly"
Stranger, did you know that mani"
"Well, not" answered the Engllshman,
cautiously; u didn't know him, but saw
him, nevertheless"
