STRIKE FL 4UREs.

A special investigation of the number
OF workingmen out OF employment ON
account of strikes IN various parts Of
the country has been made by Brad
sire is. 1t finds no serious trouble any
where in the south east of the Mis:ls-
sippi, or in the northwest. In the coal
regions of Maryland, Ohio and
Pennsylvania, there is strike OF unex-
ampled proportions, involving 21,4S0
men. In New England, in the boot and
shoe, textile and metal industries, $3.50
employees have struck; not less
than 5000 men ara involved in
the strike ia Texas and on the
Gould system ofGailways, and there
are 1000 men included in the great nail
strike west of the Alleghanies. There
are smaller strikes in various parts Of
the country, making total of fully
81, 900 men now idle. A similar investi-
CATION in December, 1884, showed Is, COO
men idle because OF strikes. The active
boycotts are fewer in number, today,
than they were three months ago.
When one reflects that the causes
for most of these strikes are really
trifing in. their nature, and that
perhaps not one hundred men are
directly interested in or responsible for
those causes, the course of the strikers
seems to be the height of folly. The
Texas & Pacific and Gould railway
strikes was inaugurated because one
man, whose name cot fifty of the other
employees ever heard, was discharged
from the car shops; 5000 men went out,
depriving themselves of $4,000 a day
and costing che railways as much
more, as protest against the
action of superintendent who
had what he considered good cause for
getting rid of the man. The money
that has been lost by this foolish strike
can never be recovered. One would
naturally think that workingmen would
grow tired of being dictated to and or
dered to quit work and endure hard
ships and want on account of something
in which they can have no possible in
terest.

Texan Snakes.
Nashville American.


The largest rattlesnakes are in
Texas, on the lower Rio Grande,
where they sometimes attain the
length of twelve feet and are heavy in
proportion The smallest are the
''hornedn rattlesnakes of Arizona,
New Mexico and Southern California,
which seldom reach a length Of two
feet They have two little excrescen-
ces over the ewes aud are full of devil
ment. They have rattIes, but seldom
use them, preferring to lie half hid
den in the sand until stepped on,
when they demonstrate. The sand
or desert rattlesnake is also small,
and pretends to be on neighborly
terms with the prairie dog, whose
burrows he occupies. | have reason
to believe that when the rattlesnake
inserts himself in the bosom of a
prairie dogs family he does SO on
fraudulent grounds and is unwilling
~ entertained. The prairie dog car
ries no life insurance and cannot af-
ford a quarrel, and the snake is
mean enough TO take the advantage
of him. There is little brown and
very comical owl who likewise takes
up residence with the prairie dog,
but he makes at least show of earn
ing his rent by remaining at the en-
trance and acting as janitor, politely
bowling to everybody who passes.
Neither snake, dog nor owl seems to
mind the others presence. but are ex-
ceedingly sociable.

Passes and leaves me in sorrow to live.
To the soft eye of beauty my sorrow l tell,
But, alas tits in vain

Like the pillows of ocean, restless and mad

Shaped thro' eternity,

The ANONYMOUS

The propriety Of a writer conceal
inc his name, has long been question
ed. Those who are in favor Of what
they call the open and above board
principle, say that if an individual
writes mcritorious article, let him
have al the credit which Of right
belongs to him, and if his article be
discreditable, let it also be known,
that they who are innocent of its
preparation may 50 unsupported.
This mannerof reasoning is not only
plausible, but as far as it goes, it is
true. Bat the objection to tits, that
it does not embrace all of the incen-
tiyes which writer feels. If q charge
be made against an individual or n
community, it should be invariably
accompanied by the authors name,
in order that responsibility may be
saddled on the proper shoulders.
He who would write scurrilous or
abusive letter, aiming at the dispar-
agement of merit, or for the purpose
of gratifying contemplate malice,
we think, as Randolph said of such,
would mix poison with your por-
ridge. He is an assassin, too cow
ardly to assume the responsibility of
the deed which his malignancy sug-
gests.
So far then as charges against per-
sons are concerned, the anonymous
should be discarded from writings.
But the vast majority of articles
contain nothing which contemplates
injury to any one. The writer's of
such should use their option to con-
ceal or avow their authorship. tits
matter of greater Importance to
themselves than to all others, and
curiosity should not be so rapid as
to demand that the mask should be
thrown aside.
A young man Of genius, who has
just made his debut in the world Of
letters, is usually very sensitive and
diflldent Of his own powers. 1t is
certainly proper that such an one
should make experiments on the pub
lie before he avow himself. IF he
fails in his first effort, he may, by
changing his manner, accomplish a
worthier end, OF he may retire alto
gether, and have nothing but self
modification to heap fortunes on his
head. Whereas, if lie were to avow
himself, the consequences Of failure
would be greatly magnilied and very
whitening to his hopes II, however,
success should smile on his early eff
forts, he can at proper season, pre-
sent himself to the public, and reap
all the honor which devolves upon
successful authorship.
These are some of our opinions in
regard to the anonymous IN author
ship. In our country, the system
prevails much too extensively. Ev
cry man who points or poisons q
shaft, should be responsible for its
consequences. If he innicts wounds
on innocence, let innocence have an
opportunity Of indicating itself adj
vantageously, and Furnishing guilt
This can only be accomplished by
exposing the real designs Of the per
petrator, which cannot be done un
less he is known

ruined his peace and lured him on

his love and cast his heart at her

scornfully that she was on the eve

Warburton, it was an awful blow to
to me when they told me the dread
full truth that Gerald Brookes had
taken his own life ~
ut all occurred in the fair South,
where he was travelling. ] sent ut
once for his body-poor murdered
boy 1t came. He looked like q
marble statute lying there white,
cold and dead, his hands folded over
the heart that had beaten with true
and faithful love for the woman who
was the canse ofall this, and clasped
in his dead hands / found spray of
rose eeranium which | tore from his
grasp; / could not see his body dec
grated By anything she had touched
or cared for. From that hour / have
hated the odor and sight of the bios
som with greater intensity than ever;
it may be childish and weak in me;
if so, | confess my weakness, but /
cannot resist it.
He paused and rested his hand
some head on one white, shapely
hand. Harry Penryth was young
and wealthy, and many woman had
endeavored to awaken a responsive
chord in his heart. But although he
moved in gay society and was cur
teous to all and attentive to some,
no woman had ever really touched
his heart until he met sweet Lilly
Moreton. But Ethel Warburton, the
rich young widow, loved him with a
most wild, absorbing passion which
carried everything before it. The
crafty Mrs. Warburton soon discov-
cred that there was no engagement
existing between Miss Moreton and
Mr.. Penryth, and racked her brain
fer some method of Disseminating
the young man, and turning his love
for Lily into aversion and dislike.
While Harry Penryth related the
story of his friend and his tragic
death, Mrs. Warburton's face had
grown white, q wild haunted look
stole into her eyes, and the little
hand, which held sprig of the OBJ
noxious rose geranium, was icy cold
and trcmbled.
She threw the flower away
II am sorry l offended you with
my geranium," she said humbly; cit
is no favorite Of mine !"
1t was a deliberate falsehood, but
no matter. "The end iustifies the
means'-at least she thought so.
As soon as she was alone in her
own chamber, she paced the floor
like Gagged tlgress.
"My God !" she painted breathless-
~, "what would he say-how he
would scorn me, if he knew that /
am Ethel Delorme, the woman who
Tilted Gerald Brookes !! But he never
shall know. Hove him / love him
And | shall win him if die for it ~
She fell into profound reyerie. All
at once her dark face lighted strange
ly. II have itln she exclaimed ~
believe Lean see my way"
That night Mrs. Warburton stood
before the mirror in her room array
ed for the hop which was to take
place below stairs. She was regal in
cream satin and lace white roses in
her magnificent black hair She
moved slowly towards window
where pot of rose geranium was
sitting, and STOPPING over it, broke
off mass of scarlet bloom. Then
humming softly to herself, she left
the room, crossed the wide corridor
and tapped at door.
Come in !" cried sweet voice,
and Mrs. Warburton turned the
knob and entered Lily Moreton's
room.
GLOW lovely you are y she cried
rapturously, a jealous pang at her
heart, meanwhile, as her eyes fell on
the slender figure in white lace and
pearls. "But oh, Lily, my love p
