Punished Because They WOuI Not Take
the Places of Other strikers.
There was revolt last week in the Kings
county, New York, penitentiary among the fe-
male prisoners. Those who engaged in it we're
i put IN dark cells and placed on scant diet

Shoe Company controls the labor of the
convicts. The amount of work, however, re-
quires the help of outsiders, and among the
number who are thus employed are many wo-
men. Last Monday ten women employed on
rough work we're notified that there would be
reduction in their wages. They objected,
and obtaining no satisfaction, they left the
shop.
The Superintendent then called in some fe-
male convicts who we're at other work in the
penitentiary to take the places at the machines
which the ten girls had vacated They did so
but when it was made known to them that the
operators had quit work on account of re-
ductlon OF wages they arose from their seats
and refused to work.
The Superintendent notified the Warden.

marched ten others in to take their places
These prisoners took their places at the seats,
but remained standing when they were ordered |
to sit down and work. The matrOns talked to |
them and strove to encourage them to do |
the bidding Of the Superintendent. They re- |
fused, and finally they were marched from The /
place, and then, with the others who had pre- /
ceded them, were ordered to close confinement |
for ten days and to receive the diet which
prisoners in close confinement receive. At

IT seems that the Chinese restrict
ton law has no effect in San Francisco.
All the judges are finding loopholes
through which the Chinese are allowed
to land. Only day or two ago Judge
Subin allowed China woman to land
although she had lost her certificate.
When the Attorney objected and said
that this ruling would allow Chinese to
sell their certificates on leaving this
country to other Mongolians he simply
said sit would seem So" Better give

THE MORMONs IN IExICO,

The question of the proposed hegira
of the polygamous Mormons in Mexico
is attracting considerable attention just
now, and the San Francisco Bulletin in
speaking Of the matter says if the Nor
mons offend the law and political and
religious sentiment in Mexico, hair
splitting on legal questions will avail
them less than in Utah. The Mexicans
have a summary way Of dealing with
offenders which. though not always
strictly constitutional, is apt to be very
effective.
Polygamy can only be purged from
the Mormon system by new revelation,
but since its PRONUNCIATION in lS43 SO
much of the esoteric doctrine Of the
church has been woven around this tenet
that new revelation, abrogating or
suspending it would come very near to
the disruption Of the whole fabric. 1t
was expected by many well.informed
persons that at the recent general coun-
Gil revelation might be received af-
feeling polygamy; but, under the stress
of active legal prosecutions, no such
concession was made, and it is difficult
to conceive how it can be made, but as a
professed measure Of temporary expedi-
ency, which, Of course, would have no
weight without the presence of legal
penalties. In view of this it is hard to
understand how Mr.. Brigham Youngjr .
can so innocently assume that his peo-
pie will obey the laws Of Mexico any
more than those of the United States,
or how like complications with those
which have arisen in Utah can be avoid
ed by the colonists in their new home
The Mormons are increasing in num-
bers and pressing upon their neighbors,
and no doubt they need room for expan-
sion. There is room enough in this
country, if their institutions were in
harmony with those OF decency and en-
lghtenment. Evidently they see the
handwriting on the wall in the move
ment lately started against them, and
while Mr.. Young denies that they are
fleeing from government prosecutions in
Utah, there is little doubt they are pre-
pairing to yield to the pressure of law
and public opinion, and to seek fresh
fields. This much inducement may
commend them to the Mexican project.
Careful avoidance Of causes likely to
incite hostility, might enable them to
extend and solidfy their power until
they can afford to bid the Mexican gov
eminent that defiance which they could
not successfully maintain against the
United States. There would be CLEAN
of hope for them in this but for the
likelihood that some future day they
will find the 'manifest destiny" which
has su rounded them in the deserts of
Utah again enveloping them in the
northern States of Mexico. The CONT
nent is growing too small to permit the
existence of institutions hostile to de-
cency and civilization. The Mormons
must "move on" to regions beyond the
pale Of enlightened society.

USEFUL HINTS.

To KEEP seeds from the depredations of mice, mix some pieces of camphor with them. Camphor placed in trunks or drawers will prevent mice from doing them injury.
 To KEEP your knives and forks from rusting, make flannel bag, and stitch from top to bottom, an inch and. half apart, dozen times, making recepta- cle for each. Roll and keep in dry place. ~
 A TEAsPooNFUI of black pepper will prevent gray or buff linen from spotting, If stirred into the water in which they are washed. It will also prevent the colors running, when washing black or colored cambrics, or muslins, and the water is not injured by it, but just as soft as before the pepper was put in.
 IT is always best to wash fannels, calico dresses and aprons before the white clothes are wet, especially if the day is cloudy and threatening. Then if 1t rains the white clothes can be rubbed, scalded and left in the rinsing water, and it is a small matter next day to wiring them out, blue them, and hang them out to dry.
 To MAKE the hair stay in crimp, take 2 cents worth of gum arabic, and add to 1t just enough boiling water to dis solve 1t. When dissolved, add enough alcohol to make rather thin. Let this stand all night, and then bottle it to prevent the alcohol from evaporating. This put on the hair at night after 1t is done up in paper or pins will make 1t stay ill crimp the hottest day, and is perfectly harmless.
 ONE can have the hands in soap studs with soft soap without injury to the skin, if the hands are dipped in vinegar or lemon juice immediately after. The acids destroy the corrosive effects of the alkali, and make the hands. soft and white. Indian meal and vinegar or lem on juice used on hands when roughened by cold or labor will heal and soften them. Rub the hands in this then wash of thoroughly and rub in glycer- inc. Those who suffer from chapped hands in the winter will find this com forting.
 MosT persons, when they come in from the rain, put their umbrellas in the rack with the handle upward. They should put it downward, because when the han de is upward the water runs down in- side to the place where the ribs are joned to the handle, and cannot get out, but stays rotting the cloth ard rusting the metal until slowly dried away. The wire securing the ribs soon rusts and breaks. If placed the other end up the water readily runs of.

Edwin Booth.

Edwin Booth, when not on the stage, is great smoker. He never drinks any alcoholic liquors. Tea Is his only stim- ulant. He never attends late dinners or suppers, and never has an "out." After acting he is very much depressed and likes to lie abed to recuperate during much of the next day. In the parlance of the day, Edwin Booth is Gre formed" man. From the time Junius Brutus Booth-his father-died in 1852, until the assassination of President Lin coin by his brother John, in 1865, Edwin drank and drank hard. During the greater portion of that time the three most prominent, most talented and most dissipated young men upon the Ameri- can stage were Wm. Goodall, H. A. Perry and Edwin Booth Billy Goodall and Harry Perry are both dead-victims of drink. The terrible act of his brother John reused Edwin from folly. It is generally believed that John Booth, the assassin, was a very incorporate young man, but such was not the case. It was Edwin who "tossed the ruby y"-John's weakness was women. From the gay, roystering, reckless young madcap of twenty years ago, Edwin Booth is now, and has long been, one of the soberest and gravest of men. He is naturally of morbidly melancholic temperament, and, sinco his change in habits, he de- lights in nothing but his professional duties on the stage, and the companion ship of his family in the seclusion of his home Upon the street or in mingling among men he is habitually wrapped in gloom. That he does not attend dinner parties and the like is not strange to those who know him, for he does not care for society, and never did-not even in his youth. His resting the day is simply custom observed by nearly all great actors. Celebrities like Mir. Booth, when in their own country, seldom at tend rehearsals- only daily duty they may have. Such work is attended to for them by a subordinate, in the same manner as John Mccullough used to rehearse for Mir. Forrest, in the clos ing years of that great tragedian's life, anI as MT. James Cathcart did for the late Charles Kean. n.-ETchange
