Another Plea tn Behalf of 'sChip'' Smith. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Will the editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER publish these sentiments, written by the ex
 emplary English lady, Mrs. Fry, who died in 1S45. She was of the sect of Friends or Quakers and distinguished for her benevolent inclinations. She won love and confidence throughout Europe. It was felt that a star of love and hope had gone down when she died and none has yet risen to shine with the sweet and cheering lustre for the poor did this truly angelic woman. This was found among her writings: ''Does capital punish ment tend to the security of the people? By no means. It hardens the hearts of men and makes the loss of life appear light to them i; and it renders life insecure, inasmuch as the law holds out that property is of greater value than life. The wicked are consequent ly most often disposed to sacrifice life to ob
 tain property, It also lessens the security of the subject because many conscien- tious that they had rather suffer loss and sustain much injury than be Instrumental in taking the life of fellow creature. The re- suit is that the innocent suffer loss and the guilty escape with impunity. Does capital punishment tend to the reformation of any party? No, because in those who suffer it leads to unbelief, hypocrisy and fatalism; in those who remain to discontent, dissatisfac tion with the laws and the powers which carry them into execution, to hardship of heart, unbeIief and deceit. Does it deter others from crime? Mo- because the crimes subject to capital punishment are gradually increasing Punishment is not for revenge, but to lessen crime and reform the criminal. y

SOME FACTS ABOUT STRIKES


 All students of social problems know that great strikes are not often profitable to those who engage in them. The facts on which this knowledge is founded are abundant and have been added to in notable way during this summer by occurrences in this country
 The strikes in the United States this sum- mer which have attracted the most attention are those of the iron workers, the freight handlers and the mill hands in Cohoes, New York. The strike of the iron workers is not yet ended, but it Is estimated that they have thus far lost $6,O0O, 900 in wages and what it has cost to support them Even if they can carry their point which is doubtful, it is not probable that they will get the $6,o 900, 900 back before their wages are again reduced The freight handlers strike was complete failure. They lost about $2oo, GOO and gained nothing. The Cohoes strike ended Monday in the defeat of the strikers, who have lost about $27O,GOO in wages, and it is shown that the Harmony Mills, in which the strike oc- cured, have gained by it. On the day the mills shut down there were 38O, ,OOO pieces of cloth in the market in Fall River which wers selling at B cents per yard. One week ago the stock on hand at that point had been in- creased 35O, ,OO0 pieces and the price had de- clned, while cotton was It cents per pound higher. If the Harmony mills had continued running in all probability further depression of prices would have followed. It is thought that the price of goods to day, if the accumulated production of the Harmony mills had been put on the market, would not have been over 3t cents per yard. From this fact and also from the fact that the production of the Harmony mills would have increased the surplus to l ,15O, 900 pieces, with natural decline in price, it Is figured that at the present state of the market, net gain to the Harmony mills of $65, ,O0O has been made by the strike, which more than counterbalances the loss by the stoppage. The operatives are in ar- rears $15, 1000 for rent and thousands of dol lars for provisions, clothes and other necessa- ries. The Harmony mills suffer direct loss ! of taxes, insurance and water power amount l ing to $45,OoO.
 Some "friend of the worAingman" who wants to do him good turn might collect l the statistics of strikes and set them before him in plain and readable manner. If he | were better informed he would strike less, and certainly would not strike on failing ] market,'' as he did this summer.

Recently Captain Burton, the traveller, re- ported that almost unlimited gold can be obtained on the Gold Coast, Africa, dis trict which has produced gold for centuries. He says the region is equal to half dozen Californias. In this he is supported by the English Commander Cameron, who investi- gated the Gold Coast in his company. Gold is found in the sea sand, in the dust of the reads and in the mud walls of the native huts. subject of such importance has of course been widely discussed by experts in England, and by this time large numbers of prospectors arc doubtless verifying matters on the spot.

My own darling"
 George W. Simpson says these words soft ly to himself as he lies in the hammock un- der the linden trees, the soft breath of June zephyr kissing the pearl colored pants that fit him so suddenly, and then rioting among the scarlet bank of roses that are climbing in fanciful ways around the pillars that guard the entrance to Distress Warrant Castle. She of whom he speaks them is a beautiful girl with dusky, piQtra5lte face-a face ttat is arch sparkling, and bright, as only brunette faces can be, and over the laughing face is fluffy mass of dark waving hair; while pair of pansy- dark eyes with golden lights in their soft depths and sweet y curving lips tinted with the velvety crim- son of the rose complete picture that would make your head swim
 Relne McCloskey is indeed beautiful, and as she comes singing along the gravelled path with the golden light of summer day falling upon her uncovered head the very birds that are enrolling among the branches Of the lindens seem to pause and look at her She sings in a low, sweet voice that is tremu- lous with dinner little Breton love song that she had heard in Milwaukee

City management" of waterworks is fine thing in Plttsburg, Pa., where millions of dollars have been spent by the water com missioners, and where there is now serious
 water famine. part of the money has been
 spent for enormous engines of a new and
 untried pattern. There are four engines at
 the 'nsw" waterworks, three of which wore
 broken down and rendered useless months
 ago. The other one broke down last Friday
 and for time the city will have to depend
 on two old engines which were con-
 demned and ordered to be sold five
 years ago. The result of such shiftless
 management is deplorable. One firm of steel manufacturers, employing great many men and paying $5,OO0 year water rent, 'shut down. Saturday, owing to the lack of water for generating steam and by the closing of other establishments thousands of men have been thrown out of work dispatch says For weeks water has been carted up by hand to some of the establishments. Mer- chants dependent on hydraulic elevators can not move their goods, especially the piano dealers. Every class of tradesmen feels the effect of the famine. But the most disa | one that is most widespread, and that can be only hinted at-is the effect on water closets in offices, public buildings and private houses. It IS an inconvenience as widespread l as it is fraught with danger" No won l der the people of Plttsburg are disguste eG | with the way in which the watsrworks have l been managed, or mismansged, by the oits officials

BRowN's IRON B1TrERe is one of the very few tonic medicines that are not com posed mostly of alcohol or whiskey, thus becoming a fruitful source of intemper- ance by promoting a desire for rum.
 BRowN's IRON B1TTERs is guaranteed to be a non- intoxicating stimulant, and 1t will, in nearly every case, take the place of all liquor, and at the same time abso- lutely kill the desire for ,vhiskey and other intoxi- eating beverages.
