MT. Powderly gays that since the 1st of January the executive board of the Knights of Labor has settled by arbitration three hundred and fifty cases of difficulties between employers and employed that would other wise have resulted in strikes. This is 8 good record.
 During the crusades in the twelfth century the custom of using coats of arms was first introduced in Europe. The knights dressed up in armor had no way to make them selves known and distinguished in battle but by the devices of their shields, and these were gradually adopted by their posterity and families, who were proud of the pious and military enterprises of their ancestors. The custom is now spreading among the wealthy of America.

The bill for the better preservation of the health of school children in institutions which has been introduced in the New York legislature seems to be reasonable one.

During the year 1885 the British marine Nms e1, ,762, ,67O, and paid out for losses fl, , 592, ,347. The balance of e170, ,323 was more than needed for the running expenses of the companies, But for reserve funds there would have been defi;its for the year. The unusual proportion of losses is generally at tributed by disinterested authorities to care lessness, encouraged by the willingness of companies to overinsurs and to take risks on vessels unfit by service.
 The combination of manufacturers of knit goods is strong one. Over fifty mills are now in the association, employing over 1O,- 900 hands, each mill putting itself under $5, ,OO0 bonds to stand by each other. In case of strike in any mill the others, upon twen- ty-four hours notice, are to shut down for six months or more, or until the strikers in said mill return to werk. Other mills are coming in, and it is believed that nearly all will soon be in. It will be interesting to see how the association works.
