THE BoYCOTr VERDICT.

The boycotters sentenced recent
" to imprisonment IN New YORK
wore acting Independently OF the
KNIGHTS of Labor and not members
of that organizatIon.
They deserved all they got.
Some months ago five men be-
longing to the Bakers Union called
npon a widow woman who was run
ming bake shop and asked her TO
compel her employees TO JOIN the
Union. She replied that they could
do as they pleased, and calling them
mn stated the case. They sald that
they were receiving the regular
scale wages and had no grievances.
TLey declined to join the unlon,
and the shop was hoycotteo by the
Bakers Union. Five men were de-
tailed each day 10 parade up and
down in front cf the street with
plaeards. asking people to quit
trading with the woman who run
the bake shop. These men were
all foreigners who had come to the
country 60 make a much better
living than they had ever enJoyed
before
The sight of FIVE stalwart men
irving to break ~ woman eusi-
ness was rcpu-nant to the CITIZENS
of New York. and the result was
that the trade Of the little bake
shop increased fourfold.
The method ADOPTED 10y the Ba-
ker's Union was cowardly, because
ii was a battle Of large organlza-
ton directed against woman try
ing to earn an honest living.
It was useless because its effect
was exactly contrary to that which
the Union wished to produce.
twas lmpolitic, because 1t de-
stroyed in the city Of New York,
the force of the boycott, as weap-
on in the hands of Trades Unions
Had the Bakers Union attempt
ed to boycott some wealthy and "a
nac;ous man az the head of large
establishment. who made vast sums
Of money, paid low wages and OPP
pressed his employees, the sympa'
thies of the people of New York
would have been with the Baker )
Union. and thousands would have
discontinued the use Of the boy
cotted bread.
The car drivers who struck fol
shorter hours and better pay woI
the fight because the people of New
York recognized that they had
grievance. The Baker Union had
no grievance. nor had il the nigh
to NEEDLE With a bake shop, where
good wages were paid and the EN-
ployees were satisfied.
This incident settles one primer
ple Of the boycott. 1t is that ;
Traies' Unlon cannot Of itself sue
ces~fully boycott anybody withou
it has The people as an ally AM
sympathiser 1t must have goot
grievance which the public recog'
nizes. Every individual and ever,
organization has the right TO with
draw Its trade from anyone. but th
moment it attempts to compe
other people to DO 50, the law pro
tects the person boycotted.

white miners showed such an inter
disregard Of all moral and civil laws
that it dcserycdly received the sever

country. There was a general feel

How ELL Lit the Fire.

"Mebby you've seen my boy Bill
hanging around here!' queried farm
err of a policeman at the Central
Market yesterday. "He's common
looking chap, little bow-backed, and
has red mittens, a blue comforter and
u scaSed look"
II saw such O chap about an hour
ago, but he's O man grown"
SOS Bill. He's as big as anybody,
but he don't know nuthin'. The other
morning he got up to start the fire,
and come to look around he couldn't
find match in the house. It's half a
mile TO the nearest haybur's, and what
did that smart son of mine do? He
put the kindling into the cook stove,
tucked some paper under it, and then
got down the shotgun to try brilliant
experiment. He thought the flames of
the powder would set the kindlingG GO
ing and save him tramp"
And didn't it?"
"Why, the long-legged ignoramus
never stopped to see if the gun
wasn't already loaded, when, as q
matter of fact, she had big charge
of powder and handful of buck-shot
already down. When that gun went off
the report riz everybody out of bed in a
twinkling, and away went all the glass
in the kitchen windows. We haven't
got the house fairly clear of smoke and
ashes yet, while the charge of shot
blew the whole back of the stove out. I"
"What did the boy do?"
"Ee was lying on his back on the

African Ants.

Among the Injuries of travel in
Western Africa armies of ants and
venomous flies may be safely reckoned
on. Crocodiles, mosquitoes are such
commonplace matters in comparison
that it is not worth while to dwell upon
them.
The bashikouai ants must be ter
rible plague. They travel, we are
told, night and day, in armies miles
long. The elephant and gorilla fly be-
fore them; the black man runs for his
life so soon as the ants are seen. 1t is
related by traveller that as he was
going up ore of the mouths of the Fam
best he saw whole village suddenly
deserted by the inhabitants, who fled
with all they could carry of, a proceed
ing which, as there was no foe in sight,
rather puzzled him, till he found they
were fleeing from tho ants. Whom
these ants enter hut they clear it of
every living thing in few minutes.
Huge cockroaches, almost as large as
mice, centipedes, mice, and rats are in
stantly devoured. A strong rat is
killed in less than q minute, and
in another minute its bones are
picked. A leopard, dog, or deer
is soon dispatched and deyoured, for
they kill by the numbers. They are
quite half an inch long, and one varie-
" Is so strong that it will bite pieces
r an out of the flesh. They possess,
however, one meritoriojls quality-they
msrtally hate, and Whenever they can,
put TO death tho mischievous white
ants which mako such destruction in
houses.
In addition to these and the sand
ants, which bite like scorpions, leaving
distressing pain behind them. there are
several varieties OF flies which sting
horribly, such as the igogouai, small
gnats, whose bites go through the tough
hides of the negroes, causing n terrible
itch the ibolai, Aies or gnats, which
sting as though with needle, and
whistle as they dash at you; the richou-
ma, which fill themselves with your
blood before you know they are there,
and then leave an itching that lasts for
hours, varied at intervals 10y sudden
short stabs of pain; the slouay or nest
building flies, not quito so big as bee,
which cling to a man even in the water,
and assail the natives with such foroci-
ty that ii a canoe, by chance, touch one
of their nests. the men instantly dive

Race Preindice.

In the North american ReUielU
Gail Hamilton dwells on the subject OF
Race Prejudice" sub ect of never
failing interest to Americans-par-
ticularly to Americans of the Southern
States. She does not believe that the
amalgamation of the races is matter
that concerns the churches, even the
Congregationalist churches, which are
nearer to heaven than any other. The
negro, she thinks, hugs his race pre-
Judice as closely rs does the Caucasian,
and though no one knows what is to
come, the white and black should at
present be let to work out their saliva
ton each for himself, leaving God to
shape the destinies of the races. She
saws:
If the races are providential, the
race line is providentlal. If it is God
who made the white man white and the
black man black, it is God who made
each choose to consort with his own.
TO say that Providence intended the
race line to be perpetuated is
not to lay to Providence the
bondage, injustice, and anguish which
have attended its perpetuation. IL is
abundantly worth while to throw life and
treasure and national existence into the
resolution that no human being shall
be enslaved. 1t is better to die a
thousand deaths than TO do this great
wro ng against man, and sin against
God. But it is not worth while TO put
even the contents of one contribd alton
box into an attempt to secure by exter-
nal pressure what is much better left to
the working of natural causes, the adj
justment of social relations. 1t is
kicking against the pricks where there
is no'occasion 70 kick at all. +"
Nor will it be bad disci-
pline for the Congrcgationalists to tar
ny in Jericho till their boards be grown,
and they have learned that while we
have the right and are under obligation
to demand in Tie So I'll absolute po-
htieal quality and civil rights FOR all,
we have no light whatever to meddle
with the social relations of the ecclesi-
t>tical aGinitics ia tins South; that we
might Just as reasonably refuse TO help
educate their ignorant masses unless
the white viii wear a three-cornered
hat instead of derby, a, refuse it I'M
less the white and black will go TO the
same church; that, in short, the pig
ments of Providence are not obliterated
because we stubbornly prove ourselves
to be color-blind.
