"See the dude, the dandy dude'n
"Shut up, you dirty little street ragamufin,
or I'll punch your head!'
Then they went for each other like two
bull pups One had ON n pair of cotton
Jumpers with "A hole in the seat. and a tat
tered shirt; the other was dressed in the
height OF hoy fashion They were about II
a size and the crowd cheered while they
punched each others noses. chewed each
Others ears and scratched each others eyes.
The r%agamuiiin bad the most science, but tho
little dude was in the best condition physi
cally. Suddenly a bluecoat dropped down
from somewhere. The crowd received an
electric shock, and some one called out;
"Skitl a poelerl7
Then the little dude pulled his fingers out
OF the r~ugamutiin's greasy hair, and the rnga-
muffin let goo of the little dudes ear, and away
went the two, while the strong arm Of the
law ratified for help and then started In pur
suit
Follow me" shouted the ragamunin to the
little dude. and they disappeared together in
n laby rinth Of alleys, The policeman gave
up the chase, sat down on n doorstep and
cooled oil, and then went away.
Then The Globe reporter did likewise, but
cogiuating ON the magnanimity suddenly dis
played by the young arab and wondering il
he did not intend to got the little dude OH
somewhere alone and then try 10 annihilate
him But not long after he happened upon
the two again They both seemed quite
happy, and the ragamuiiin was saying, as
be dangled a traad-new outat for a hrst-class
shine;
"Thankee. old boy. Didn't moan what |
said-only was giving you guif. Its all right,
old pard, isn't itf
And the little dude replied;
"It's all right now. Good, bye, hope you
will have good luck"

RoYAtrY.s HEROIC ENDURANCE.
An Empress who smiles Though
Hacked with Torture.

lfofeigu letter.
Strange and sometimes pathetic arc the
ways OF those royal households Of which
only the cold, stately splendor meets the eye.
How few seeing the empress Of Germany full
filling all the duties OF her station, every inch
a queen, would guess that for eighteen
months, since her accident she has been
racked with almost intolernble pain Unable
TO walk or leave her chair, she had herself
carried once a week 10 the Augusta hospital
and to the Augusta foundation for the
daughters OF poor officers and those killed in
battle; both these institutions are her own
work, and she dispenses in person consolation,
advice and commands Every Sunday, we'll
or ailing, she attends divine service, not in
her private chapel or oratory, but in one Of
the public churches.
Empress In name, slave in fact, she shirks
none Of the obligations, even the most try
ing ones Of her station; gives audiences, re-
ceiyes Populations, is present at all gala cere-
monies and dinners. sees her numerous
family, and astonishes the most experienced
diplomats and ablest STATE ministers by the
readiness OF her wit, her unfniling tact, and
profound erudition. Those who see her under
the hhut pas, covered with priceless jewels,
robed in her purple mantle fringed with
heavy sables do not realize that the regal
train Intentionally thrown over her feet
hides the MANNED, tortured lint as effettually
as her sufferings are concealed under the
emile which she turns on the emperor at her
right on the mistress Of the robes standing II
little back ON the left, or on the ladies bend
ing low before her in a triple courtesy as
they pass.
She, who bost could reveal the truth and
tell Of noble endurance and brave patiencs,
Is the old Silesian who was brought from her
peasant home in the provinces to give the
sovereign relief by her delft manipulations.
She has done nothing else since her child
hood. and the professional gift of healing
rictiuns is hereditary in her family. as II Is
with many VI the Silesian shepherds. This
aged woman rubs the empress twice, some
times three times n day, according 10 the in

Fancied Wrongs, Ripe for Revolt Against
British Eule-Annexation Talk.
ST. PAUL, MINI, March II.
Winnipeg advices state that the agita-
ton in Manitoba, which originated with
the farmers, appears to be having con-
tagious effect on the commercial repre-
sentatives throughout the province. The
general public are not aware Of the strong
undercurrent which is carrying on the
agitation, and the serious earnestness and
quiet determination awaiting for an ops
perfume time for development. That the
business and agricultural interests are
undergoing a severe depression is no
longer matter of argument, and unless
relief is provided by the Ottawa Govern
ment crisis may be expected. '--'' p
Persons in i position to know, and who
can sustain their assertions positively,
are aware of the organization of secret
societies in the city of Winnipeg, whose
| purpose it is to have theOttawa government
accede to their demands, or failing in this,
| to assume control of the Province and in.
sist on annexation. This society is COM
| posed of influential and prominent bus
| mess men who realize that their lifetime
accumulations are greatly jeapordized,
| anu LUclF euTueSJ anu SuDuueu COuNcT-
sation is emphatic and determinedly sug-
gestive.
At the farmers meeting in Winnipeg,
! Saturday last, some of the ynhen In the
paid service of the Government insisted
on controlling the convention, much to
the disgust of the farmers, who promptly
drove them from the hall
General Manager Van Horne's reply tc
the farmers, to the effect that their actor
was ill-advised, and that no concessions
by the railroad would be made until after
the fool-kiler had visited Winnipeg, ha:
only served to fan the flame. The farm
ers in their resolutions advise agains
emigration until the wrongs are correct
ed. This information has been telegraphet
all over Europe in the various languages
and can not avoid restricting emigration
1t has been observed by conversation
with Canadians, always loyal heretofore
that there is a majority in favor of annex
alton, and unless their grievances ar
heard and corrected exciting news from
that province may be looked for soon.

THE LASKER RESOLUTIONS.
A Disposition Manifest to Let this Rather
Delicate Matter Drop Before it Leads to
Complications.


WASHINGTON, d. c., March II.
The more seriously they consider the
subject the stronger grows the disposition
of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs
to treat the Lasker incident very mildly,
and it now appears to be not improbable
that the committee will recommend
that the House take no further action
in the matter. A member of the COM
mittee said: "Why should the House
either debate or adopt resolution re-
affirming the sentiments of the Ochil-
tree declaration? Bismarck returned
the latter to Minister Eisendecker; Secre-
tary Frelinghuysen has in effect refused
to receive it from the hands of the Ger
man Minister; hence as matter of fact
the original resolution has not been re-
turned, either to the State Department or
TO the House. 1t is unwise and impolitic
to do anything except to let the subject
drop"
1t is perfectly well known here that
the most prominent members OF both par
ties in the House are of one mind regard
ing the propriety of the passage of the
Ochiltree resolution. They think that
resolution should have been objected to
when it was first offered. Some of them
say In private conversation that the at
tempt of one branch of the National Leg
islature to communicate on any subject
directly with foreign parliament is, I'M
der any circumstances, an improper thing
to do.
No matter WHAT sort of report or
recommendation the Foreign Affairs Com
mittee may make it lis regarded as proba-
BILE that debate ON the subject in the
House cannot be avbided.
WAsHINGTON, d. c., March 1.-THE
subcommittee of the House Committee on
on Foreign Affairs agreed upon upon re-
port and resolutions concerning it, The
action of the ub-cohmittee will be sub
mitted to the full Committee to-day. The
resolutions as agreed upon state in effect
that the action of thb House of Represer'
tatives was simply AIN expression of SYM
patty with the German people in then
| great loss, and the House has no concelI
with those relations between the Legisll
tive and Executive branches of the Ger
man Government which prevented tina
expression of sympathy from reaching thu
body to which it wasI addressed.

to Take Such a Tumble-An Incident of
the Day Mt Chicago.
CHICAGO, ILL, March II.
The rear guard of the st. Patrick's Day
procession passed the corner of Twelfth
and State streets at $40 O'Clock
this afternoon. A large crowd had con-
gregated on the sidewalks. Fully seventy
people stood wedged together in space
hardly twenty-five by ei,Slt feet. Under
meath this crowd was wooden side
walk. AS the last of the procession
passed, the crowd began to move.
The sidewalk shook for a moment, the
cracking of rotten timbers followed,
and in an instant there
was crash, and the mass
of shrieking humanity was dropped into
the basement below, distance of about
ten feet. Those on top of the heap began
scrambling out by standing on their less
fortunate companions. The wreck
was soon surrounded by a huge
/ crowd. The patrol wagons were sum-
moned and the wounded, mostly women
and children were rescued. A large
number were removed to carriages and
wagons while the police took care OF
those who had no friends. A baby-car-
| riagQ was demolished, but the baby, UNI
harmed, was hoisted out and delivered to
| its bruised and frightened mother. a
huge pile of hats, bonnets, green
ribbons, shawls and few crushed
flags were carried into the shoe store
and delivered to their respective owners.
One man had his teeth Jared out, The
only person seriously injured was lady,
who, being in a delicate condition, suf-
fered considerably, and was removed to
| herhome in carriage. Her name could
not be learned. The police report the
following persons Injured:
Maggie Keyes, domestic, employed by
Mrs. Reidy at 1858 Thirty-frst street; frac-
ture of right leg.
Maggie Tracy, domestic, at same num-
Der; right ankle brol,n.
Bridget Farren, oi2Il6 Dearborn street,
cut and bruised.
Ellen Reilly, slightly bruised about lace
and body.
Alice Walsh, of Hyde Park, cut ant
bruised.
