 The New York Fret gut Handlers Strike.
 NEW YORK, July 26.-There seems to be no immediate prospect of ending the strike of freight handlers in New York and Jersey City. Money is being daily added to the fund of the freight handlers. The Union men maintain an almost unbroken front The transportation men express satisfaction with their new men. Neither side is dis posed to offer any concessions.

Conversing with a number of political friends today he said: 1T have strong hopes that a compro- mise will be effected between the Independ- ent and Cameron wings, and in that event the Republicans will carry the State by fifty thousand majority.

 How Japanese Babies are Welcomed. lYokohama Correspondence of the San Francisco
 Chronicle.l
 One curious custom in vogue is the exhibi ton of fish on every house where boy has been born to the family during the year. This showing is made during the month of May, and on the 9th of that month there is @ high festival held the relatives and friends of the family make it the occasion of present ing gifts and toys suitable for boys, as well as giving clothing fitting for the little chap. All sorts of ohilds gear is to be seen on ex hibition at this time, and no boy Is neglect ed. The boy is the pride of the household the parents testifying their joy in feasting all corners who honor them by their remem- brances. The girl babies are not forgotten, but they are accorded another day and a separate festival time, this being the third day of the third month-the 3d of March Then, instead of the fish floating as symbol the doll is to be seen in abundance, and all the toys known to the girl world are lavishly displayed. There is very much of pride ex- hibited on both of these child festivals, as the gifts presented are ostenta iously display ed by the fond parents for the admiration of their friends Diminutive suits of armor, tiny swords and bows and arrows, toy horses, with full suits of trappings-in fact, every imaginable thing that goes into the makeup of the Japanese warrior of the olden time are on parade on the 9th of May while the 3d of March brings forth all that is represen- fofi of %Ia1 Fa p1 fono off f1n mir pa gender. There are many who are not con- tent to wait the full advent of the time for the display of the fish emblem, so that dur ing the latter part of April it is no uucom- mon thing to see an immense fish, sometimes two, so constructed that it is filled by the breeze, floating from bamboo pole, herald ing the glory that has it's lodgment in the house from which it is exhibited.

Olr po'!IcS, no less than our houses,
need Ircqu mt repairs. Invisible enc
mics. in the shape of germs, bacteria,
and the like. are always at work under
mining our health; our dead selves are
always at war with our living selves,
and the fight against dirt and disease
ends only with our lives. with which it
began. We often mistake grieyously
in trying to mend up our bodies by
means of drugs and tonicS and stimu-
lants, when we should use foods and
rest and sleep instead.
Doubtless there are few of us all but
might mend our ways with profit to our
selves and our fellows. Good and evil,
light and darkness, life and death, God
and Satan, wage an incessant conflict
on the battle-ground of our hearts. and
not in this life may we hope this conflict
will ever cease. When we would do
good evil is present with us. in one or
other of its Protean forms. The charity
that thinketh no evil. the love that work
eth no evil to its neighbor. the con-
science void of offense toward God and
man, perfect obedience to the Divine
law, perfect conformity TO the Divine
pattern must be daily striven for
rs we daily strive for physical cleanl-
ness, for physical clothing, for physical
nutrition. In this warfare nothing but
faithfulness unto death will entitle
us to the crown of life. In ordcrto mend
with neatness and dispatch, we must be
well supplied with materials for the
purpose. The providcnt housewife has

Mending.

Mending is one of those homely occu-
pations that. like sweeping, dusting and
washing dishes fills up a great deal OF
time and leaves very little to show for
itself. But if it isn't done, then II
shows a great deal. If garments were
made as the "one-hoss shay" was
made, if the thread was as good as the
cloth. and the work as good as the thread,
and the fastenings were sure, and the
Innings matched all the rest, and the
wear was even and uniform throughout,
there would be little mendiRg to be
done. The worn garment would "dis-
solve" so to speak, and leave nothing
behind, nothing even for rag carpets,
but such, alas! is not the case. The
Cloth grows thin at the elbows and
knees (of boys), the buttons come off,
the buttOn-holes stretch and grow fuz-
zy, the seams rip. the edges fray, the
fabric is torn by sharp points that lurk
unseen and part the threads without
giving notice, and, little by little, gar
ments 60 to pieces, unless the constant
"stitch in time" is taken.
There are those who can afford to lay
aside their clothing as fast as it becomes
soiled or worn, and attire themselves in
new, but these are not the majority,
The most of men and women are glad
if they can keep themselves neat and
tidy by the device of mending. and often
of patching, and rich people who are
not spendthrifts are slow to throw away
well-ftting and handsome garment
because it needs mending. This occu-
patton, therefore, is quite universal.
and. in fact, is carried on more elab-
orately and Systematically by the we'll
to-do than by those who live from hand
to mouth
The same line of remark applies as
well to houses and equipages Is to
clothing. Our houses. the best of them,
are continually getting out of repair and
need mending. Hinges break and get
loose, p,astering crumbles and falls,
doors settle and become hard to open
and shut, cracks open in the walls. leaks
start in the roof, window-pa are
broken. paint grows rusty. pickets drop
from the fences. and, unless constant
and careful repairs are made, look OF
decay and deterioration creeps over the
premises. ITO keep up a place, as
the phrase goes, requires constant ex-
penditure of time, labor and money.

A WOman's Romance In q Nutshell.

He was introduced to her at q ball;
she danced with him and forgot him.
She met him again at reception,
was reintroduced, and remembered she
had seen him before. Where? She
knew not. Yet for some moments his
arm had been around her slender waist.
At the reception she talked with him,
and found him dull. She looked at him.
He might be called handsome. but was
awkward. When he sat down he was
prone to sprawl. He stood with his
head forward and stumbled ungracefully
in his walk. She flushed with annoy
ance, left him, and went into the con-
servatOry with man more to her taste.
She found him one evening at the
house of friend. She conversed easily
on topics of general interest. He sat in
chair too low for him, and his feet were
painfully apparent. She disdainfully
turned her shoulder toward him. Pres
emily she rose to 60, and dropped her
handkerchief. He bent lightly forward
and caught it up, almost before it
touched the carpet. AS an intimate
friend at the house he prepared to see
her home. He arranged her cloak with
eager Difference, and she smiled. He
trampled on her skirt as she passed out
of the door. and she frowned.
They arrived at her gate; he pushed
it open. took off his hat, and almost ran
away.
One day she was coming home from a
shopping expedition with small parcel
in her hand. He came up with her,
bowed awkwardly. blushed and asked if
he might take her parcel. He did not
say much, but listened in adoring silence.
When he left her she laughed and said
he was intolerably stupid. yet not bore.
Pretty soon no began to call often, and
attended her to the opera and theater
when she would permit him. He was
always near her. and anxions to be Of
service. He was manly, and among men
favorite. He rode well. but danced
inditferently. The other girls laughed at
him. but he did not heedit. She danced
perfectly, was talkativs, daring, impul-
sive.
She snubbed him. and shook him of
for more accomplished men.
He finally said he loved her. She
laughed. said impossible. tormented
him, neglected him, refused more eligi-
bic suitors, and finally married him and
adored him for all time.
