Susan B. Anthony and Henry Bergh should

thanking her stars that American women

may see women here and in Holland helping
dogs TO pun carts, and sometimes they are
harnessed themselves in company with the
dogs. They carry great loads upon their
heads, and do all sorts of manual labor. Not
many weeks ago there was a scandal in
Europe as to the ~cruelties practised upon
them in their work in the coal mines, and l
see them digging in the fields, loading hay,
and acting as the guards at the crossing of
railroads. Going from Belgium to Holland

in no other country. itis that Of the aen-

Till at last It fell, like q siren spell,

She told him the dish was sardine fish,
But he bolted clean away.

The skate was of high degree,
and every one knew it was perfectly true
Sardines were the cousins OF be.
With n terrible frown he dived straight down

His trowse-s he tore ILd his ulster, And swore
They would never again be seen.

She sang this same, but as nobody came.
She thought &. as well TO try,
SO down on the rocks she hammered the box,

SAN Francisco, June l5.-There was a
general strike to day of cooks and
walters in most of the large restaurants
in this city. Many of the restaurants
were compelled to close, while Others
ran sho1t-handed. The cause of the
strike was the posting Of rules for the
control Of the cooks and walters, which
the strikers consider unjust.
The cooks and walters strike ended
tonight bv the restaurant owners agree
ing to modify the Objectionable rules to
me t the views of the strikers, and max
ing eleven hours dav's work, instead Of
tn rteen, as heretofore.

will be 400 men here in few days who
have worked for him for years and that
they will not submit to any interference
by the Dagoes.
RACINE, Wisconsin. June 16.-An at
tempt was made last night assassinate
M. M. Secor, the proprietor of an ex.
tensive trunk establishment in this city,
by placing dynamite bomb in the
driveway of his yard. There must have
been some hitch in the programme as
Mr.. Secor drove through about 1890
p. M, and had stabbed his horse and
gone into his house before the explosion
occurred. u
Mons, June 16.-Tweuty-five hundred
miners at the Fleun coal mines have
gone out on strike. A strong band of
strikers marched to the st. FIorent
mine at Quaregnon and forced the
miners to leave the pit. The police pre-
vented them from proceeding to the
other pits. The lancers ara confined in
the barracks ready for any emergency.
SANTIAGO, June 16.-During the cleo
ton yesterday a great riot occurred.
Forty persons were killed and many
wounded. The hospitals are full of in
iured persons. Senior Dinator, promi-
nent member of the radical party, was
killed. The result of the elections is
supposed to be in favor of the liberals.

passion for aiding their fellow sufferers
and Fastening the reign of Christ, that
they will give up their gross supersti-
tions and their crude and cruel dogmas.
At the same time we must frankly
confess that the programme we published
last month is not all that we could have
hoped. 1t does not breathe altogether
the Catholic spirit, and needs little re-
wording. If the society is to occupy the
place we claim for it, the managers will
have to be most careful to avoid making
new sect and another fancy religion of
it. Although religious quarrels are very
often matter of words, it should be the
part of the managers of this society, SYM
pathetically to- examine what all sects
and parties are driving at by their shib-
boleths and symbols, and by no means
to declare themselves independent of
all theological views" No man, no sub
iect, and no society is, was, or ever will
be, independent of all theological views !;
one might as we'll try 20 be quit of all
ideals. If ones highest notion of God
is brute power or plastic force, one tends
to become brutal and mechanical if one
sees that love and pity are diviner than
these, one tends to become brotherly
and compassionate-in word, a Chris
tian Socialist. If there is any theology
or knowledge of God possible, at least
no Christian society can be independent
of it.
The aims of the society are not well
arranged, but they roughly express most
ofthe objects for which we have been
long fighting, and wi?at short manifesto
could avoid roughness2 Glass distinc-
tions are, of course, utterly accursed in
our eyes unless they merely express di-
visions of labor and under the name of
distinction founded upon class, the soci-
ETY. evidently means our sham monarchy
and emptilv titled nobility and our &C.
clesastical title grabbers, as we'll as all
the minor distinctions by which ten
penny Jack scOrns ninepenny Joe, and
lazy mistress fouts honest maid.
The production Of peace and good
will all over the world" Yes but what
years of battle will be needed before
these products will be within reach !;
battle not only in the spiritual sense but
possiblv also even more literally; and
though we, handful of men and women
in back pAror may sigh for the reign
of peace among other schemes Of univer
sal benevolenCe, yet we must not even
hope for this, except after we have trod
deu the diviner paths Of relentless JUS
tice. If, however, the society acts up
to its profession, aud bases all its opera
tons upon rhe spirit Of the Christ life,
or if it even honestly an ,ceaselessly
tries to do 50, it will meet with a greater
success even than We dare to hope for it.
We shall do our utmost to support it

AmaIUamnted, A

From the following resol utions which
have been received by THE ENQUIRER,
it seems that the quarrel between the
Cigarmakers' international and White
associations of the Pacific coast have
been amicably settled. Both or1anizA-
tIons and the cause of labor are to be
congratulated upon this pleasant ter
minatiOn of what once threatened to be
Kilkenny cat fight. The Chinese
cigarmakers must be driven off the Pa
cifc coast, and to do this quickly and
efectually union Of all the anti-Chl-
nese forces was necessary.
+ The Federated Trades association Of
the coast deserves especial credit for the
good work it is dong in the labor cause ;
there can be no question that to it is due
the amalgamation between the cigar
makers organizations Following are
the resolutions referrel ID :
Whereas, We, the Federeted Trades
and Labor Unions Of the Pacific coast,
have learned with the greatest satlsfaC-
ton that the CigarmaGers' International
union and the Cigarmaker5 White asso-
citation of the Paciti. coast have fOrmu-
lated and enacted an amalgama ton OF
their respective organizations, and are
hereafter determined to enter into the
struggle to d4splace Chinese in perfect
unity and harmony and
Whereas, These said org anizations
have, in order to most succe3 e3sfullY com
pete against the great amount of co)he
labor IN their industry, adopted Pacific
Coast label to distinguish their products
as against any other; be it therefore
Resolved, That we, the Federated
Trades and Labor Unions of the Pacific
coast, hereby pledge our undivided sup
port to this LABEL and be 1t furthermore
Resolved, That we urge upon the con-
stituents of the delegates within the
Council to adopt similar resolutions and
to do all in their power to further the
best interests of the cigarmaker5 cause
80 that we may be instrumental IN the
promotion of certain success IN this In
dustrY,
