GENERAL LABOR NEWS
Wcrkingulen in Parliament.

The advent of bona-fide workingmeI
to seats in the British parliament, says
awriter in Harper's, only marks a phase
in that vast, peacea5le revolution
which will ever be regarded as one Of
the distinguishing features of the nine
teenth century. During the early de
cades of thecentury the ]aboring classes
were politically, and in many respects
socially, under the heavy heel OF a
tyrannical or Indifferent arist'cracy;
their voice was unheard OF unheeded.
save when, as in 1882, the voice was
mingled with the stern rumblings OF
revolution. intellectual working class
es then were far behind the standard OF
to-day; socially, they had no influence:
politically, they were regarded as out
side of the pale and untitled to exercise
even the power contained in vote.
The time was a weary one for the Ia
boring man, and justice was apparently
slow to make its advent. But delay
had it's advantages. The working men
OF Great Britain received a mu III
needed educ;. tion in the management
of their trades unions and III many
other dlrections-a training that ma
tured the judgment and self-control of
those whose vote in future days will be
so powerful for good or i'll.
The social and political Improvement
in the industrial population has been
most clearly discernible during the last
20 or 80 years. Fifty years ago a work
ingman would have been ostracised
even if he had obtained election to par
lament; now he is received there as an
equal. Before the reform bill of 1867,
the voting power Of workmen was COM
paratively small, and few of the middle
classes would have listened to request
for a workmen's representative had
there been no property qualification to
stand in the way of such an election.
With the passage Of that act the condi-
tion of things was changed in the great
centers of population. 1t is not there
fore matter of surprise that there
should be wish on the part Of those to
whom political power has been COM
mitted to haye a direct voice III the
making of the laws in which as citizens
they are so deeply interested. Ardently,
however, as workingmen members
might be wished for by their class, a
greater difficulty still blocked the way
the want OF money to sustain them
In parliamentary life. This difficulty
has, however, been overcome by the
nomination to parliament of the men
whoare leaders in the unions, and who
are being maintained by the funds Of
the societies.

FOOL.HARDY FEAT.
A Bfcycler Rides His Machine at Height
OF 1875 Feet.
[WashingtOn Star7

LN quill
A daring and foolhardy feat was per.
formed by bicycler at Cabin John Bridge,
near the city. The place is g general pleas
ure-resort about twelve miles from town,
over the military road built by JEFF Davis
while the latter was Secretary of War
The bridge is said to be the largest single
span Of masonry in the world 1t is 125
feet high and about 200 feet long, single
magnificent arch spanning a deep and
rocky gorge.
There is brown-stone coping on the
three-foot wall on either side of the road
way. This coping is about a foot broad
and is beveled on the two upper edges for
an inch or two On the inside Of these
walls is the solid roadway above the duct
On the outside is u perpendicular descent
of about 125 feet in the center Of the bridge
and no less than seventy-fve feet at either
abutment. The young man stopped and
dis1nounted at the end of the bridge and
lifted his machine upon the coping. The
act was noticed by g. couple of gentlemen
smoking under the trees, but it was looked
upon as freak of a young man who had
been drinking little too much, and no
particular attention was paid to it, The
next moment there was an exclamation Of
horror from the direction of the bridge,
and the young man was seen mounted
upon his thirty-inch wheel deliberately
riding along the narrow coping.
The sight froze the blood Of the ladies
and children picknicing in the gorge be-
low, and was enough to appal the stoutest
heart The gentlemen in front of the hote
started to their feet and called to the other
wheelmen Within Stop him! For Gods
sake, stop him! I" shouted lady with two
children clinging to her, wringing her
hands with fright. 1t was too late. The
young man was already in the center of
the bridge He never swerved hairs
breadth from his seat. From the end OF
ming by mechanism, SO erect and motionless
he sat and SO evenly he rode Let him
alone," cried one of his companions, he
could ride it if it was rope" Neverthe
less, the fear that interference might has
ten the horror that all wished to prevent
left the party rooted to the spot. In two
places the coping makes zigzag by the
widening of the roadway, and at these
places the rider must steer his wheel
through very narrow space at nearly
right angles with his course. The daring
fellow had passed the first of these ticklish
spots and when he carefully wore round
the second not single one of the Mortified
spectators could draw breath for fear.
From thence to the end was a short and
straight run, and in another moment the
young man had completed his dangerous
ride, dismounted, and was waving his hand
laughingly at the frightened men and
women and children who had witnessed it.

To the home at the foot of the mountain grand.

While the beans from the pods in the pans

And the mimic warfare al once is DER;
