LITTLE FEar.
Two little feet, so small that both may nestle
In one caressing hand
Two tender feet upon the untriod border
OF life's mys erious land.

Two little feet, so small that both may nestle
In one caresslng hand
Two tender feet upon the untriod border
Of lies mys erious land.
Dlmpled and soft, and pink as peach tree
blossoms
In April's fragrant days
How can they walk among the briery tanglcs
Edging the worlds rough Ways
These whltc.rosc feet along the doubted future
Must bear woman's load:
Alae since woman has the heaviest burden
And walks the hardest road.
Love, for while, viii make the path before
All dainty. smooth and fair
VIII Gull away the brambles, letting only
The rosos blossom there;
But whom the mothers watchful eyes are
shrouded
Away from sight of men,
And these dear feet are left without the guild
Who shall direct them them
How will they be allurcd, betrayed, deluded-
Poor little untaught fectl-
Into what weary mazes Will they wander,
What dangers will they meetY
VIII They go stumbling bllndly In the darkness
OF sorrows fearful shades
Or lind the upland slopes of peace and beauty,
Whose sunlight never fades,
VIII they 20 toiiing up Ambitions summit,
Toe common world above?
or in come nameless vale securely sheltered,
Walk side by eide with Love-
Some feet there be which walk !ife's track un
wounded,
Which find but pleasant WAYS,
Some hearts there be to which this life Is only
round of happy days.
But they are few. Far more there are who
wander
Without hope or friend
Who find their journey full of pain and losses
And long to reach the end.
How shall II be with her, the tender stranger,
Fair faced and gentle.eyed
Before whose unstained feet The worlds rude
highway
Stretches so strange and wide?
An who may read the futurey For our darling
We crave all blessings sweet
And pray that lie who toeds the crying ravens
WIN guide the baby's feet.

GLADSTONE's BILL.
The Full Text OF the Measuro Given to
the Public.


LONDON, April 15.-The House of Com
mons having voted permission to Mr..
Gladstone to introduce his bill for the
better government of Ireland, the official
text of the measure ia to-day made
public. 1t debars the proposed Irish Par
lament from legislating concerning the
status, dignity, or succession OF the
crown, from passing laws affecting peace
or war, the army or navy. militia, or
volunteers, or the defense of the
realm; and from taking any
action concerning the foreign or
other subjects placed beyond the power
OF the Irish government to deal With are
dignities, titles and honors; prizes
and bottles Of war, othenses against the
law OF nations, treason and alienage;
navigation, copyright, patents, mails, tel
egraphs, coinage, weights and measures.
The bill further prohibits Ireland from
doing anything TO establish or endow any
religion or TO disturb or confer any privi-
leges on account of religious belief, and
also forbids it to impose customs by ex-
else duties.
THE QUEENS PRERoGATIvEs.
The Queen is given the same preroga-
tive to summon, prorogue and dissolve
the Irish Legis lature as she has with re-
spect to the Imperial Parliament. To
Her Majesty also is reserved the power TO
erect forts, arsenals, magazines and dock
Yards. The Irish Legislature is permitted
to impose taxes TO be paid into the con
solidated funds TO detray the expenses of
the public service in Ireland, subject to
the provisions of the Irish land pur-
chase bill, but is not to either
raise or appropriate revenues with
out the Queens recommendation made
through tue Lord Lieutenant. Church
property in Ireland is to belong to the
irish people, subject to existing charges.
The executive government of Ireland is
vested by the Queen in a Lord Lieutenant
who will govern with the aid of such Off
GERS and councils as the Queen may APP
point, and will give or withhold the
Queens assent to such bills as the Irish
Legislature may pass.
LIBERALS DIsHEARTENED.
The absence of notifications OF the
home rule bill dsbeartens the Liberals,
and a movement is on foot 20 obtain Mr.
GladstOna's assent to the introduction Of
a motion asking the House OF Commons
before the second reading of the bill to
adopt a resolution simply affirming the
necessity of establishing legislature at
Dublin.

The Decreased Consumption of Alcohol
Iucre2ses the Use of Life's Comforts
LONDON, April 17.-Sir William Har-
court, Chancellor of the Exchequer, in
troduoed the budget in the House of Com
mons this evening. An actual deficit is
shOwp Of E2,642, 943, instead Of g., 827, III.
as estimated. The diminutiOn in revenue
was most marked in the case Of alcohol,
the receipts derived from which were
&9L000 below the estimate, or 81, 179, 900
below the receipts derived from alcohol in
1884 50. Within the decade there has
been a decrease in the revenue from alcO-
hol Of G4,500,000. This has been due 10
changes in the habits OF the people,
and has been concurrent with an
derived from the comforts of life. The
falling of in the receipts from alcohol has
been reduced about One-half by increased
receipts derived from tea, tobacco and
fruits. There has actually been no sub
stantIal decrease in the sources Of reYe-
nue. except IN the case Of alc0hol. For
the fiscal year Of 1861 the eXpendi-
lures are estimated at 600 42S, 500, and
the revenue at SIS, $50, 900. 10 is
proposed to meet the deficit by
taking 100000 from the G6, 100000 appli-
cable to the reduction OF tbs national
debt, which has been reduced $50, 0000 600
in the past five years. 1t is also proposed
to abolish the license tax on private brew
ing in cottages, the annual rent OF which
is under 9S. entaillng a loss of fl6, 900 in
revenue Thus there will remain sur
plus estimated at 925S,77l. No further
changes are proposed in taxation, which
the government regrets it's inability TO re-
duce. The House adopted the budget.

The Roads Centering at East st. Louis

ST. LOUIS, April 15.-ln East st. Louis

the streets or around the railroad prem
ises, and the quantity Of freight handled
by the nine roads centreing there was in
excess of that handled at any time since

were no strike IN force. This is
not because the railroads are not
in condition TO handle all the freight Of

near the full force of men at work, but
because shippers generally fear delay and
possible loss il they ship by the roads
affected by the strike. The crippling OF
the transfer facilities between the differ

cussed in the House.
WAsHINGToN, April l5.-At the ex-
piration Of the morning hour to-day the
House went into committee of the whole
ON the river and harbOr appropriation bill,
all general debate on the bill being limi-
ted 10 two hours and half. Mr.. Willis,
OF Kentucky, briefly reviewed and ex-
planned the provisions OF the bill, which
he commended called for no apprO-
priatiOn which was not demanded
by the interests OF the country.
Most critical scrutiny OF the measure
would show that the rivers and harbOrs
enumerated in it were worthy of improve
ment and were Of public Importance.
Mr.. Hepburn, of Iowa, characterized
some OF the appropriations as prOdigal,
wasteful. and throwing away of the
peoples money. He specially opposed
the Galveston harbOr appropriation on the
ground that the plan for the improvement
of the harbOr had been shown TO be defec-
tive. He also criticised the appropriation
tor the lower Mississippi river.
Mr.. Jones, of Alabama, replied to what
he termed the blank cartridge attacks
made on the bill, whose object 10 was
to furnish cheap transportation fer the
people.
After some further discussion OF this
nature the bill was read by sections for
amendments, and some little progress was
made before the committee rose.

SECRET SESSIONS.
Mr.. Riddleberger Insinuates That the
Private Secretaries Leak.


WASHINGTON, April l5.-In the Senate
to-day Mr.. Logan took the floor in support
of the movement for open executive ses-
sions. He preferred his own resolution,
ne said, because 1t provided broadly for
open sessions on all matters of nomna-
ton and confirmation. Without going
into the history OF secret sessions Mr..
Logan would simply premise by saying
that there was not now and never was
any necessity for secret sessions of the
Senate.
Mr.. Riddleberger, in Withdrawing the
substitute offered by him for the open
executive sessions resolutions. said he
had offered it in the belief that a two
thirds vote was necessary to pass the
resolution for which he intended his
resolution to be a substitute. Finding
that the present form OF resolution would
require only majority vote he would
withdraw the substitute. He said he
would call up the matter every morning
till il was disposed Of. He did not pro-
pose that it should be allowed to, die out
as to how the secrets OF executive ses-
sions got out.
ONE OF THE LEAKS.
Mr.. Riddleberger said if he were per-
mitted to guess he could tell. 81 have a
private secretary, for instance" said Mr..
Riddleberger, land 1 consider him par

nue. with him, and he asks me a question

somebody else, and the whole newspaper
fraternity get 1t. My observation 10 that
if you would undertake to exchange in
telligence the newspaper men would have
the best of this Senate by a large MAORI
ty. That is the way secrets get out"
The newspaper fraternity, he added, like
| religious associations and other organi-
cations, had some bad men and they
sometimes misrepresented.
1t was nearly O'Clock when the secret
session discussion ended, The remainder
of the time until , was consumed in a

news given yesterday, moved that the

SHOP TAILORs STRIKE.
The Largest Strike in the History OF
Milwaukee just Begun.


Milwaukee just Begun.
MILWAUKEE, WIS, April 15.-The
largest strike ever known in Milwaukee
has been inaugurated by the Shop TaIlors'
Union, 1t is asserted that over 1000 OPP
eratives are affected, although a large ma
jority of these have no interest and are
in fact, opposed TO it. The strike is TO Sc
cure the adoption of new scale of prices
A II the wholesale establishments in the
city are affected by the strike. Outside Of
the members of the shop Tailors' Union
Is large number of single
hands, men and women, who take
work direct from wholesale dealers. This
class, ii is claimed, make on an average
more money than the shop-wOrkers, and is
therefore not In sympathy with the strike
They have all quit work, however. from
fear of violence on the part OF the strikers
There seems, so far as can be learned by
interviews with wholesale dealers, nc
likelihood of any compromise, and after
the usual eXhilaratlOn and excitement at
the inception of the strike both sides will
settle down to stubborn test of which
is the strongest. A prominent wholesale
dealer said, in speaking of the new scale,
that dealers could cut up their work
send it East TO be made up, and after paw
ing all expenses, including the express
charges, the cost would be less than to
have it made under the new scale of
prices. The cutters are joining forces
with the tailors to secure reduction Of
hours, with continuance of the present
wages. Silence reigns among the whole
sale offices, and the Office force in each
establishment has nothing TO do. The
damage to the clothing trade by the
strike if 1t is long continued, will, it Is

WASHINGTON, April 15.-The report Of
the Committee on tue Electoral Count
upon the HOar bill was presented TO the
House to-day. The committee has made
several important amendments to the bill,
which are explained in the report. In
that part of section 4, which prohibits the
rejection of the vote Of any State from
which but one return has been received,
except by the affirmative vote Of both
houses, the committee has struck out the
exception. The majority Of the commit
tee was of the opinion that where there
was but single return from a State that
tde two houses should not have the power
to reject the vote of a State.
