THE ST. LOUIS TROUBLE.
what a Leading knight says
OF IL.

New Brunswick, April %. John w.
Hayes. a member of the General Execa-
tive Board of Knights Of Labor, re-
turned to this city last evening" He
says that no progress has been made to-
ward settlement OF the difficulties be-
tween the strikers of the Gould system
and the railroad officials. The case is
now, however, in G shape from which it
is expected that when tue Congressional
Committee reaches st. LOUIS and meets
with the Citizens Committee, these two
bodies may be able to hit upon some
plan whei eby q settlement can be ef.
fected. He says that the reports sent
out by the railroads that they are haul
ing all the freight they want to
every day are untrue. The roads
are all blocked up and what
freight 10 run out goes under
the protection Of deputy sheriffs aud
militia. The railroads claim, Mr.. Hayes
admits, that they have now all the men
to do the work they have to do, which
is very little on account Of the blockade.
There have been, he says, 10000 loaded
cars standing in the yards for four weeks.
Mr.. Hayes says that the uncalled for
massacre Of innocent people by deputy
sheriffs was instigated by the railroad
authorities. They knew they could not
get the help of the State militia until
some act OF violence was committed.
They therefore got together a gang Of
roughs who brought on the trouble, and
the Governor then ordered the militia on
the scene. He further says that the law
yerstemployed by the Knights of Labor
have now in their possession ample evil
dence to convict prominent officials OF the
Louisville 4 Nashville road for instigat-
ing this riot. 1t is in view of the great
success Of strikes and boycotts that the
General Executive Board have Just
called special session Of the General
Assembly to meet in Cleveland on May
25th, to take action upon the great
questions brought up by the recent
strikes and boycotts. An endeavor will
be made to prevent in the future any such
upFisings a. are now in progress without
the authority Of the General Assembly.
Hayes returns to st. Louis this evening.

The Work the Negro Loves.

Bill Arp in the Atlanta Constitution.
The negro loves to plough and split
rails. He is perfectly happy when fol-
lowing q mule on a hot Summer day,
and happier still when the horn blows
for dinner and he can ride home side
ways. The mule is happy TOO, and
answers the horn with cheerful bray.
1t is astonishing how much sense an
old farm mule has got. / knew nj
that when it was most dinner time
kept one ear back towards the house
when he was ploughing the other way,
and kept both forward when he was
coming back. One day | blowed the
horn about IL O'Clock to see what
Beck would do. She was at the end
OF the row, and it took the darby ten
minutes to make her turn round and
go to ploughIng again. But it is fun
to see the darkies when Summer rain
comes up. They will plough on until
the shower comes, and then mount
and lope home and get wet all over,
and by that time the rain is over and
they have to 60 back again. The
darky takes more care of his head
than his feet. Hedon't wanthi il head
to get wet or cold. He sleeps with his
head to the fire and covers it up good,
and lets his feet stick out any way.
He will warm his hands before he will
his toes. There is one thing that a
darby can do better than a white man.
He can beat us making fires on a cold,
Wintry morning. Sometimes when
the wood was wet and the kindling
poor, Ihave worked over q fire a good
while and almost despaired of making
it burn, but a darby never fails. The
fire seems TO recognize him, and / have
thought that may be it drew some
colored caloric from his carcass.

Career Of a Prominent Man.

II. M. Hoxie, whose Dame has APP
peared in newspapers of late as the
manager of Jay Gould's southwestern
interests, has had an interesting a
reer. He was a poor boy in Polk
county, Iowa, at a time when immi-
grafton was pouring into that state.
A gentleman named Mitchell, who
kept a country hotel about ten miles
from Des Moines, took an interest in
the boy, who soon showed himself
bright, active and intelligent. He be-
came the hostler of this establish
ment, and as such was thrown into
close contact whit the many hundreds
of people who stopped at "Mitchell's
Tavern" on their western way. About
the beginning of the war the boy thus
trained had grown to manhood, and
by the assistance of his employer had
entered local politics, being elected to
a county office, and In this, as in his
previous employment, showed himself
to be a bright and capable man. He
made himself useful to theparty man
ayers and did good public service at
the same time. About the close of
the war he became chairman of the
republican state central committee
when it was the fashion in Iowa to
give majorltes of from 10000 to 3d.
900, and was rewarded for his services
in this direction by an appointment
as United State marshal, and as his
district covered the entire state this
gave him a prominence which was far
more than local and made him one of
the best-known men in the state. Just
after the reconstruction period hegave
up politics and removed to Palestine,
Texas, where he became connected
with the management of the Inteina-
tiOnalrailroad Here the same quail
ties that had stood him ingood stead
as boy and man, IN business and pol
itics, brought him to the front and did
good work in developing this railroad
system in Texas, and soon showed
that he had in him the qualities of a
great railroad manager. When Mr..
Gould bought up a large number of
the railroads in the southwest and
hadconsolidated them in the general
name of the Wabash system, Mr..
Hoxie was chosen as one of his lieu
tenants and went to st. Louis where
ne became first vice-president of this
system. He is a shrewd, quick-witted
man, of few words, but prompt in de-
cision, and immovable when once he
has made up his mind.

Nice Ohio nIiser.

Bellaire TO- Special Dispatch.
An old miser named James Walker
died at his home in Uniontown, this
county, possessed OF a fortune of more
than $4,000 that is known of, and
there is perhaps more to be discover
ed. He was a bachelor and one of the
very peculiar specimens OF humanity.
He lived in q little log hut, andln the
summer season lived principally on
clover and bran. He spent most OF
his time in winter in bed, and ate raw
cornmeal to avoid the expense OF
fuel. Once, some years ago, he walk
ed to the bank in Cadiz with coupons
on $4,000 government bonds which
he had cashed, and then walked to
Wheeling to deposit the amount. He
was dressed only in blue cotton pan
falcons, brown muslin shirt, and
straw hat-not another garment-and
he walked the whole forty miles bare
footed. During the last two years he
has been very feeble, and O sister car
ed for him. He had apparently a
sound mind, and was credited with
being shrewd in business transactions.
A mistake of 1 cent in his cash and tax
receipts only two years ago caused
him to walk twenty-five miles back
to the county t~reasurer's office, which
was given him by the treasurer out OF
his " pocket TO avoid a contro-
versy, but sure enough, there was q
mistake in the cash account that
right. He was q wellknown character
throughout Belmont, jefferson. and
Harrison counties.
