THE CHICAGO MALCONTENTS

fackers ana Depose towderley.
CHICAGO, Dec. ~ The packing house
employees assembly is trying to get an
other district assembly, to join in a general
boycott against several OF the packers who
made themselves particularly offensive
during the late strike. The two assem-
blies include nearly all the knights in
Chicago and Cook county. The action
of General Master Workman POwderey
in declaring the strike off and
ordering the men back at 10 hours, It is
sad, has led to strong local
movement to have him deposed. 1t is
claimed that special session of theknlghts
general assembly can be convened upon
call issued by five district assemblies from
five States those favOrlnL the move say
that four other assemblies besides No. 81
can be cured beyond doubt and that
such a call Will be made. In this cunnec-
ton it is asserted that 7. p. Barry and
Mr.. Carleton, the two members of the
general executive committee who were
sent to Chicago To settle the strike, left
the city with unfriendly feelings toward
Powderly and it Is hiuted that crusade
has been inaugurated against him.

p Cautious Chap Is John Chiuaman.

Among the passengers on north side
car was disciple of Confucius, who earns
living by washing shirts and stockings
in Clark street basement. Suddenly the
Chinaman held up his hand, focused his
oblique eye Oh the conductor and calmly
waited for the car to come to full stop
before he ventured to step off.
"That's just the way with these chaps,
said the conductor, giving the bell two
vicious jabs. "a Chinaman will never get
on or. otT car unless it is standing per-
hctly still. We always have to stop for
them. They are more particular than an
old woman with the rhumatiz. | have
been a conductor six years, and in all that

Faults of German Universities.

According to Dr. Flach, the universe
ties are not, in the first place, examples Of
the doctrine that learning prevents man
ners becoming ferocious. Mature doctors
have been so long in the habit of calling
one another-in Latin-asiuine idiots,
that their pupils think abuse the proper
style of scholar. T:,e general bullying
tone is accompanied D.; its natural COM
Eitants, cliquis,n and partiality, even in
examinations. A professor will do his
best to pluck the pupils Of a rival, and
specialism is carried so far that the road
to success is to study an examin-
er's hobby, beyond which he never
travels-or, oddly enough, to make love to
his daughter, and if possible, to marry
her. Indeed, according to DR.. Flach, the
universities are simply hot-bcds of petit
coat government, ''''rigue, and worse;
while the students c'':>s are secret insti-
tutions, under whic@ the life of an inof-
fensive student often becomes torture to
him, on account of some imaginary Of
fense, or even caprice, of the president, of
which the victim is never even informed.
Prosecuted by his comrades plucked by
rival professors, and worried by the fas-
cination of some rival professionals, the
life of that lengcndary hero, the German
student, would not seem to be all pipes
and beer.-Brooklyn Eagle

A Bluff That Was Called.

have an acquaintance in New YORK
who enjoys life by practicing bluff. He is
forever doing what he should not do, say
ing what he should not say and going
where he has no moral or legal right to
60. Just to see if he can manage to carry
himself through by aid Of l;mitless ussur-
ance aud come out with flying colors. A
few days ago he went OH little trip into
the country with a lot of men, and just as
they were coming away he discovered a
solitary painter ut work on the cornice OF
the hotel, six stories from the ground.
The buffer looked up and then
stepping out into the middle of the
street he shook both fists at the painter
and howled: "You moon faced idiot, didn't
7 tell you to put more yellow in that paint?
-rll come up there and kick your head of
your shoulders, you spike nosed chump.
I want you to understand hereafter that
when give you orders you're to carry
them out, and don't you forget it, you-"
At this moment the painter was seen to
jam his brush in the paint pail, shove the
pail through window and start down the
ladders at miraculous rate Of speed. The
buffer made dead set for the railway
station, but the painter chased him all
over the town before he got there, and it
took all his friends and two brakemen to
keep the irate mechanic away from him
up to the very last moment.-Blakely Hall

Paris Dangerous for Pedestrians.

Paris is the most dangerous city in the
world for the foot passengers. There is
no rule of the road and 40 policemen to
guard the crossings. The pavements are
mostly smooth, silent asphalt and all, the
cabs are insured in company for that
purpose, so the drivers are reckless, and
so if man gets in the way OF cab ne Is
arrested for obstructing the traffic. If he
has been run over it is all the worse, for he
has more effectually obstructed the traffic
and besides collected crowd. In the princi-
pal streets of London this sort Of thing Is
better regulated that any where else in
the world. In the middle of the street
there is guarded safety spot. AL traffic
must keep to the left of the direction in
which II is going. A person crossing has
only to look for vehicles one way. y po-
liccman stands in the center to see TINT
foot passengers have fair show for their
lives. A little of that kind Of tyranny
would not be a bad importation to intro
duce in some of our American citics.-Dc-

Ruling Passion Strong in Death.

DR.. Swan relates very sad case of the
ruling passion strong in death. l always
believe doctors story, except in case Of
cure. If the patient dies, you never hear
anything but the truth. If he lives, the
doctor has to find some explanation Of the
phenomenon Doctors, of course, see a
vast variety of human nature, and es-
peciallv it's weak sides. This is touching
story OF young and fair girl, leaving the
bright world while the dew Of life was
still laying on its morning glories. You
can imagine the sadness of the scene. The
growing certainty Of the end, the passing
beauty of the world, the bright vision of
all the happiness and the joy, the heavy
shadow hanging over all.

WOMEN At THE RACES.
Society Ladies Not Addicted to Betting

Society Ladies Not Addicted to Betting
"A Strange Lot at Brighton Beach.
The society woman of New York is much
malinged, but never more brutaly imam
when represented as gambling with book-
makers at the races. The stories OF ire
"New York bellies" queer capers seem to
find ready credence out Of town, however.
A lady in New York does not differ mate.
rally from lady In any other quarter OF
the globe. Ladies do not gamble here OF
elsewhere, unless one regards playful
wager of gloves with personal friend as
gambling. ..
The women who have the smallest-it
any-pretensions to social recognition are
to be found ut Brighton Beach. This
course has become famous for its "off' de-
cisions and fixed" races; it is on Coney
island, and it catches the rag-tag and rlff-
raft Of the famous beach, as well rs daily
contingent of 200j or 5000 sports" from
New York and Brooklyn. Pool tickets
may be bought for so small sum as
$500, and the crowd is composed OF extra
ordinarily heterogeneous elements. Negro
stablemen, Irish saloonkeepers, French
BARRIERS, Germen tailors, Scandina-
Wan clearinghouse runners, touSus,
plugs, brokers, spruce young clerks, po-
icemen off for day, crooks of every va
riety from sneak thieves to expert bank
cracksmeu, canal boatmen, walters, hack
men, bootblacks, English visitors, who are
as likely as not to be men of title, dimnu-
tive jockeys, farmers and flashy sports, all
elbowing their way in and out, smoking
cheap cigars, drinking quantities OF beer
and betting all they are worth OH every
race AS may we'll be imagined the
women who accompany these men are not
socially lovable They are strange lot.
The number who attend the races day
after day the season through at Brighton
Beach is perhaps little less than 100, but
the occasional visitors swell the daily con-
tingent to perhaps 800 women-therc are
several Thousand men. Some OF those are
hard-featnreti, coarse and repulsive crea-
lures, dressed in gorgeous red or blue
satin gowns with their slim fingers loaded
with showy rings and their hair bleached
to siclienine shade of yellow They bet
rather heavily, entrusti:ig their money to
more or less broken and dissipated young
men who attend the women i'll 4 shame
faced way. One occasionally sees some
big, good-natured and chcaply dressed
woman betting at intervals through a
shrewd-looking Lad or al old man. She IS
probably the mother and lcr attendant
the brother or father Of one of the Jockeys.
