of the industry. He believes that the
 ranchmen are keenly alive to it's necessary
 conditions, and that it will continue to four | ish by limiting the stock on the ranges to the | number of cattle they will take care of, and by increasing the supply of feed by irriga- ton on large scale and by cultivating alfal- ia on irrigated land, where it will yield two
 or three crops year, and so getting hay
 enough to take care of the herds in the se-
 were winter weather. MT. Sturges denies
 that there is any necessary antagonism be-
 tween the ranchmen and the settlers, and
 shows that the ranchmen are doing all they
 can to remove every cause for criticism as
 to their care of cattle in winter.
 A Lama of Thibet thus defended the pol
 icy of excluding Europeans from the coun-
 try, in an interview with a traveller: They say that Europeans have good religion
 which they do not generally practice and yet wish to force on others whose religion is as good and is practiced. They are believed to be full of greed, for, living in rich coun- try, they always acquire other countries, and, while they talk of their benevolent pur- poses, they destroy animal life every day for their. own food, thus becoming clouded in calm intellect and in the perception of true morality. They also think their religion, language and custom the best, which, if we were to think so, would be considered by us a deviation from the path. Among tho nine rules for conduct we are directed never to suppose, much less to say, that our religion is the best, considering that sincere men of other religions are deeply attached to them, and on that account do good ts others. All we can do is also to do good, but not to criti- else the good of others.
 The cost of the royal theaters in Berlin, the opera house, during the past twelve months has reached the sum of two and half million marks. The Emperor s yearly contribution out of his privy purse is 450, 900 marks; but in addition to this he also pays the deficit, which is very considera- ble. The non-remunerative portions of the royal theater system are the opera and the ballet. The legitimate stage always yields a handsome surplus. All the members of the royal family have their boxes, for which they pay the due annual rent, although some of them do not once enter the theaters during the season. For every special impe- rial performance the Emperor invariably pays the whole cost. These performances take place at the visits of foreign princes to Berlin, great parades and public celebrations. The failure of the opera to pay it's way is due in great part to the tremendous wages of singers. Herr Niemann, the tenor, has to appear for forty-eight evenings during six and for each evening he has an hon. orarium of 750 marks. This equals 36,000 marks year.

ALABOn CONFERENCE.

The conference of leaders of trades unions which is to be held at Columbus, Ohio, this week may have an important influence on the labor movement in this country. The circuler calling the conference was signed by P. J. McGuire, secretary of the Brotherhood of American Carpenters and Joiners; P. F. Fitzpatrick, president of the Iron Moulders' National union; Adolph Strasser, president of the Cigarmakers' International union and Chris Evans, president of the National Fed eration of Coal Miners. They called con- vention of all trades unions in the United States and Canada. In this circular it was stated that the. time had arrived to draw closer together the bonds of unity between all the trades unions of America and that an annual trade congress was needed, among other things, for stthe establishment of national and international trades unions, based upon the strict recognition of the au- tonomy of each trade and the promotion and advancement of such bodies;" also the for nation of Gan American federation or all iance of all national and international trades unions, to aid and assist each other"
 As an indication of some of the ideas which may influence the action of this con vention the New York World calls attention to some remarks in the official organ of the Cigarmakers' union, follows: The adop- tion of the resolution by the General Assem- biy of the Knights of Labor, held at Rich mond, compelling members of the Cigar makers International union to cease their connection with the K. of L., attempted to coerce some of the large trades unions into their ranks by resorting to foul methods, such as conspiring with employers in offer ing to work for lower wages and longer hours than would be acceptable to the trades unions, and by playing the arbitration fiddle. Attacks were showered upon the trades union phalanx all along the line; cunning devices were adopted to smash the unions and to steal their funds. The mask of friendship towards trades unions has at last been thrown off; the unions that have neither the means nor the numerical strength of the Cigarmakers International union for self-defense know now whom they are deal ing with, and will be on their guard. In all these troubles one good thing has been complished, the K. of L. have exposed them selves in their true colors, as the enemies of trades unions
 It has been plain for 8 long time that the Knights and the unions could not get along well together, and it has also been plain that the unions have the best foundation for being ooJ

- TWO RAILROAD DOGS.
Shrewd John and Faithful Rocks
 The Latter Dies a Hero's Death.

ShreWd John and Faithful Rocks
 The Latter Dies a Hero's Death.
 From the Chicago HeraldI
 Said Colonel Bond of South Water street: tT used to have railroad dog named John, who was a regular curiosity. He had great love for railroads and cars, and whenever anything went wrong with him he started straight for the Illinois Central depot, proba- bly, to get consolation from the train men, who always made great pet of him. One day John Watson and I were getting ready to go off on a hunt. Old John was standing around looking on with glee and wagging bis tail. Watson asked me if I intended to take John along, and replied no-that he would have to stay st home this time. Old Johns tail instantly dropped between his legs and he hung around almost with tears in his eyes, watching the guns and things as they were loaded into wagon at the front door. When we were ready to start old John was nowhere to be found. I thought that he had gone off and laid down in some place to pout it.out. We got ou board the tIaiD and be- gan our journey, not thinking of old John. When the train stopped at Aurora I went forward to see how my dogs were getting along in the baggage car. Imagine my sur prise when found old John there with the others looking at me as roguish as you please out of the corner of his eye. You see he

knew that we were going to take train, and he started off to the only depot he knew any thing about and got aboard the first train he came to- It happened to be our train The baggageman said that when John first ar-
 rived he slunk into corner of the car be-
 hind a trunk and refused to come out and be
 comforted. When I went into the car with
 my other dogs he lay low and never made
 his presence known to me till we had got so
 far away from Chicago that I couldn't send
 him back.'
 "Some years ago." said the engineer 'sI
 was running along one day near Joliet when
 saw fine, big black dog fast under an old
 farm gate by the side of the track He had
 evidently tried to jump over the gate, and
 the hinges being broken, it had fallen on
 him. He could not get out and was bowling so pitifully that I stopped my engine and
 went to his assistance He was so grateful that he licked my hand and wanted to fol- low me into the cab. I wanted to take him with me, but didn't dare. After that the dog, whom I and my fireman named Rocks, used to sit beside the track and wag his tail when we went by. He got so he could tell my engine as far as he could see it or hear my whistle. A few months later we were running along there behind time and going very fast. It was just at daybreak and was a little surprised see Rocks on the track ahead of us. He was acting strangely. He parked furiously and howled and reared upon LIS uluO 1SSt Wueu we came up l1tJl6 closer to him he started and ran ways on the track, and then turned and sat up and howled again. He did this two or three times, until my fireman and I felt sure that he was mad. Finally Rocks fingered too long on the track and was struck by the pilot and drawn under the wheels. I heard him howl so agonizingly as he went under that shut off steam and stopped the train. My fireman went back to see what had become of Rocks, but he had been all smashed to pieces. My fireman and I were about ready to cry as we started up again, but imagine our amazement when, on turn ing curve a little ways ahead, we saw an obstruction on the track, so placed that it would surely have derailed our train had we struck it at full speed. As it was we were hardly in motion and easily stopped before reaching the danger. All that could ever be learned about the obstruction was that prob ably ~sosne=person having spite against the road had placed it there"

THE RESULT.

The result of yesterdays voting was not as surprising as some enthusiastic people thought it would be. The Democrats suc- ceeded in doing about what they usually do in this region, although they did not have as many votes to spare usual. The ''labor" vote was large, but not large enough to defeat the Democrats, and the 'tdissensions" among them were not disastrous. Judge York had @ comfortable, though not abundant entrance into office, and Shanley and Reynolds have reason to be satisfied with their success Mir. Trowbridge made good run, but the day was bad one for getting out some of those who approved of the Citizens ticket. In both boards of the Court of Common Coun- cil the situation, will be an interesting one.

 A Great Victory
  A Terrible Case of ScrofuIa Cured by Hoods SarsapariIIa

In the winter of 1879 was attacked with Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms. At one time had no less than thirteen large abscesses over and around my neck and throat, continually exuding an offensive mass of bloody matter disgusting to behold, and almost intolerable to endure. It is impossible to fully describe my sufferings, as the case was complicated with Chronic CataErh. After three years of misery, having been treated by three physicians, was worse than ever. Finally, on the recommendation of W. J. Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, I was induced to try Hoods Sarsaparflla. And now, after having taken twelve bottles, within the last twelve months, the serofulous eruptions have entirely ceased, and the abseesses have all disappeared, except the unsightly scars, which are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and beautifully 1ess.' do not know what it may have done for others, but do know that in my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an effective specific indeed.

der yesterday in a very literal way.
 California has sent twenty thousand tons of grapes to the East this season. The total crop is estimated at IFS, 900 tons, worth on an average $20 ton, or $3,50O,OOO in the aggregate.
 The new American party is thought by ex- Senator Booth. of California, to have had an important if not dominating influence in the Democratic success in that State at the re- cent election. This new organization appears to be purely labor organization. It does not exclude Catholics nor native born citi- zens of foreign extraction.
 Representative Herbert, of Alabama, has prepared bill repeating the statutes exclud- ing ex-confederates from the military and naval services of the United States. These statutes, he says, will, of course, be repealed some time. and it can be more gracefully done now, that we are at peace with the world, rather than at some future day when we may be in danger of war. 'sNo one," he said, twill question our loyalty. I think the bill will pass"
 The growth of wheeling" is indicated by some facts brought out in the course of 8 trial in one of the English courts. It appears that there are fifty journals devoted to this amusement in England alone The Cyclists Touring club numbers over % 900 members and is supported by monthly Gazette. The Cycling Times represents the opposition, but 10th unite in their warfare upon extortionate innkeepers and shiftless highway boards. The organizations of cyclists have made their power felt throughout Europe, and the im- provement in roads effected by their agency is said to be marked one.
 The question of extradition which has just been decided by the Supreme court of the United States has been the subject of much | controversy. The question is whether per son whose surrender is demanded and grant ! ed on one charge can be tried different charge after he has been brought within the | jurisdiction of the United States. The court decides that he cannot until reasonable time and opportunity have been given for his return to the country from whose asylum he has been taken. This decision is in &C., cordance with the doctrine insisted upon by Great Britain and denied by our government in the controversy over the cases of Winslow and Lawrence.

A PRINCE DEPOSED.
Alexander, of Bulgaria, Forced to Give up
His Throne.

His Throne.
LONDON. August, 25.-Prince Alexander, of
Bulgaria, has been deprived Of his throne by
the provincial government.
The news of Prince Alexander's deposi-
ton was received atthe British foreign Of
fee yesterday afternoon. The Earl of
Iddesleigh, foreign minister went dur
ing the evening to the Office and dispatched
messengers with the news to all cabinet
ministers known to be in the city, and
sent a special courier to the Marnuis of
Salisbury. There has been great activity at
the foreign Office to-day, and almost con-
been kept up with foreign capitals.
The ministerialists admit that the deposit
ton of Prince Alexander is matter Of ex-
treme gravity, but they say that even if
it be proven that Russia insh
tuted the movement, it will be difficult for
England to interfere, because it is generally
assumed that Austria and Germany acqui-
esced in Alexander's overthrow. The gov
eminent has been reliably informed that
Prince Alexander is safe and well in Rou-
mania.
The Times commenting on the Bulgarian
affair, says: "The coup must, we fear, be
regarded, SO far as Prince Alexander is con-
cerned, as the end of the chapter for him.
sympathy. He failed rather because he was
too good for the work fortune had assigned
him. The event must be regarded as tri-
umph of Russian diplomacy. and it is very
impressive event. It is also in less degree
q reverse for Euglands diplomacy. It is
only too clear that the Marquis of Salisbury
il confronted with all the dangers and diff
culties in an aggravated form which he had
to face on his first accession to power"
