Can This be Justice /?

U'J
We are witnessing strange things in these days.
We see in one place thousand men, who are
satisfied with their employment, their wages and
their hours of labor, throw up that employment
and become idlers because corporation would
not discharge seven faithful employees, who had
proved true to it in its times of trial. In another
city five hundred men quit their steady work at
satisfactory prices, because the company that EN-
ploys them will not throw up profitable contract
with customer of many years standing. Can
any one truly say these are labor grievances? We
leave it to any free born American, in all candor,
to say whether these are not cases where labor is
depressing itself with unnecessary and unwise
burdens Is it not all wrong? Sooner or later
the error of such course will be acknowledged
by those now engaged in it. Surely capital is
not the only tyranny from which the laboring
men of the United States are suffering.

Education in a Dakota Town.


A member of Lawrence county (Dakota)
School Board was speaking of the teacher en-
ployed.
"That Teller, amt gvn' no satisfaction at all, u
he said.
"Why, I thought he came from the East highly
recommended"
ooh, s'pose he was, but he don't seem to suit
jist the same"
"But he has a good education"

cation all right huff, but the troubles right here

poker game at noon, and Nv course have the

"Well, I'm cussed eff they amt jist bout clean

zample do you call that, lettin' boys down him
that way?"

a New Craze.

Brooklyn claims the credit of originating what
is called the new decorative craze, which takes
the shape of dairy maid stools, gided and cover
ed with ornamcnted plush. A Chicago wholesale
dealer, who has made great deal of money at
the business, says it a we'll known man in the
City of Churches, that started the thing about
last Christmas, merely an ingenious method of
disposing of decorative materials. "The craze
spread rapidly, but it has been long while COM
ing West. We can't tell one month what the
women are going to take fancy to the next.
Pug dogs, hand painted china, japanese fancies,
banjos and mandolins have all had their little
day, and it is dairy maid stools. 1 wish
some one could tell what they going to take q
fancy to next, I'd make fortune" 1t may be
added that the last article that has been promo
ted to the drawing room is wooden potato
shovel. This article, for what use or beauty not
the most learned sage can tell, is deliberately
painted and gilded, decorated with ribbons and
is in active demand.

The great remedy known as Celery, Beef
and Iron, is gentle stimulant as we'll as a nu-
tritive and all who have used it pronounce it to
have been taken with excellent results, especially
when taken for brain trouble, nervous prostration
or disorders of the stomach. Celery as cure for
nervous affection is invaluable. Beet is the most
nutritious and invigorating of all meats, and as a
tonic for the blood and food for the brain. there
nothing better than pyrophosphate of iron.

A Dishonest Servant.-A few days ago n
colored woman named Mary E. Cummings was
arrested in Baltimore upon the charge of having
robbed the residence of Mr.. Buckholtz, on Mary
land avenue, where she had been employed as a
servant. At the house where the woman lived a
number of articles besides those belonging to Mr..
Buckholtz, and which were thought to have been
stolen, were found. Miss Rachel link, who lives
on Belona avenue, near Govanstown, several
months ago employed the Cummings woman, who
left suddenly, taking with her number of articles
belonging to that lady. On Wednesday Miss
link went to the eastern police station where she
found and identified the stolen goods, among them
some articles which she had not missed from her
house.
