Music for H-orkmen.
[St. James Gazette, London. !


A happy day will have dawned for the
laboring classes when it shall be recog
nized as an indisputable fact that to get
from a workman his best work it is neces-
sary to feed him we'll, clothe him we'll,
lodge him well, and provide him with
agreeable entertainment while he is work
ing. Pending this too happy consumation,
steps are already being taken in Spain to
amuse the workman during his hours toll;
and the plan is said to have been attended
by excellent results. ''Structur al alter
ations'' having ben ordered for the Madrid
theaters, as (since the burning of the Ring
theater at Vienna) at so many playhouses
in various parts of Europe, the necessary
operations were forwith undertaken at the
Theater Royal, bat they did not proceed
rapidly enough to give the manager any
hope OF being open on the day for which
the commencement had been fixed. In his
difficulty he selected from number of
workmen those who had taste for music,
and engaged portion of the opera band
to play to them as they built, joined and
painted. Cheered by the strains of fine
orchestra, the men labored with such good
will that they completed their work in ex-
cellent time. And now, according to the
Epoca, the question of employing music
as an aid to labor is being seriously con-
sidered in high places. Religion is treated
as pastime by the Salvation army; and
why not work.

and said the duties of the inhabitants to-
ward the neither country must silence all
sentimental regrets. The prosperity of
Alsace-Lorraine depended upon their OBJ
tanning constitutional rights, and he ap-
pealed to the patriotism of both provinces
to support his efforts, but whether such
support be given or withheld his policy
was one of Cancellation.

therein by s. j. Alexander, secretary of

gent member to the Forty fourth congress;
DR.. P. Schwenk and George II. Roberts,
attorney general of Nebraska, and that the
testimony of W. R.Da7is, of Nebraska, Ma

ney general of the United States. and gov

CRIMES &CASUALTIES
TRIAL OF CHINA MEN FOR MURDER.
ISpeciaI telegram TO the Globe.l

Special 1elogr6 N 10 the
CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-The court room of
the criminal court, over which Judge Will
hanson presides, was filed this morning
with representatives of the Celestial king
dom, come to witness the trial of Sing All
Dive and Sing All You, indicted for the
murder on the 29th of August last of a
brother Chinaman, one Sing Quon. The
Chinese spectators filled the entire space in
the court room. and, with a seeming
ignorance of all that was going on gave
a stolid and passive attention to the dry
proceedings incident on choosing jury.
The prisoners sat apart on bench, appar-
emily wholly unconscious of all that was
going on about them. Dive is small,
thin Chinaman, dressed in the regulation
blue overshirt and felt solid slippers, with
queue wrapped snugly around his head
and appears stolid, almost to idiocy. You
is brighter looking specimen of the
Oriental, and is dressed in ordinary coat,
vest and pants and his hair is as closely
cropped to his head as any prize fighter.
Neither of them can understand English.
Many of the witnesses have been brought
here from San Francisco, through the in
fuence of the Chinese six companies, and
tbs understood that the same corporation
is paying the cost of the defense. Out of
all the witnesses, of whom there is some
twenty subpoened, only two can speak
English. These two are to act as inter
prefers. The charge against Dive and
You is that on the Goth of August last they,
together with Sing Quon, were ir Chin
ese laundry at 232 West Madison street.
They began quarreling among themselves
and in the course of an excited and vocifer-
Gus conversation, conducted in Chinese,
Dive accused Quon of toe intimate an &C.
quaintance with certain mulatto woman.
Quon retorted with some disparaging ex-
pressions of opinion as to Dives past life,
which, being couched in choice Chinese,
are as yet unknown, and Dive retaliated by
stabbing Quon through the body with
large knife furnished by you. The entire
day was spent in choosing a jury.
ARRESTED FOR WIFE MURDER.
JACKSON, Miss, Jan. 16.-Neptune TEN
pies, prominent coIored man, connected
