ANARCHIST MOSTs NEWSPAPER
VIII suspend Unless IL Receives
BETTER support.

NRw YORK, September 24.-When
Anarchist Most wrote incendiary ar
ticles for the Freieheit the newspaper
paid we'll and Most lived in high
style, but during his present enforced
sojourn in the penitsntiary the articles
written by John Miller have been 30
tame that the circulation has fallen
from 5000 to 300 copies. The office
was besieged yesterday with creditors.
Miller went to the penitentiary and
had serious talk with Most. Miller
returned to his Office, sat bordering
over his desk, and wrote column edl-
torial under the heading: "Shall tee
Freieheit Be Supported" The article
urges that the anarchists should moi
give the capitalists the chance to
boast that the publication Of the paper
YVES suspended for the lack Of support,
but by smoking one cigar less, OF
drinking one glass Of beer less, rave
the five cent piece necessary for the
purchase Of the paper. The article
closes with the threat that unless the
circulation speedily IL creased the pa.
per will be suspended and the anarch'
lists abandoned to their fate.

ported myself partly by journalism. l
became the New York correspondent
OF the Chicago Tribune. had always
dabbled more or less in literary mat
ters, and easily fell in with newspaper
requirements. In spite OF my activity
l found il the hardest thing in the
world to make both ends meet. My
house, with lis costly furniture, was a
white elephant on my hands,
and l tried for a long lime to
let it. On Mrs. Langtry's sec
ond visit it came to my ears
that she wanted to secure an @,thetic
home, ard at once sat down in the
store and wrote her a note. The
same day her carriage stopped at the
store aud / went TO the door to meet
her. She went through the house as
soon IS i could get there with her,
and was delighted with it. She is a
woman with the keeDest appreciation
OF works OF srt, and is positively uu-
comfortable among inharmoni, us sur
roundiDgs. She took the house for
eight months, at the end OF which
time she returned to Europe. BY

of me to third parties, and has never

He has simply stayed away and seen
me struggle through the great world

without a word OF encouragement or
the slightest aid. The only object l

Clothing cutters strike Ended.

New York, September 24.-The
clothing cutters strike has come to an
end. The trouble began because
August Bros, and L. N. Michaels &
Co. gave employment to non.union
men. A strike was ordered on these
two shops, followed by the bosses
ordering general lock out until the
strike was declared of. This has now
been done and the master clothing
cutters have taken back as many
union men as they have employment
for, at the came time refusing to DIS
charge the non-union men whom
they had already employed, SO that
the union men in many instances are
working with the "scabs." There are
still many union men going The rounds
OF the shops asking to be taken on.

National Bank Shares Taxable.

Judge Wallace, of the United States
circuit court, rendered a decision of
much Importance to Taxpayers of New
York directly and to the entire country
generally. Many millions Of dollars are
involved. A year ago the receiver of
taxes, George w. Mclean, levied tax
upon the shares Of the national banks.
The banks, as representing the share
holders, resisted the demand of the re-
ceiver, and obtained an injunction to
restrain him from collecting. The de-
cision Of Judge Wallace is made upon
the motion of thirty-iye of the banks
to have the injunction made permanent.
The motion for the injunction was de-
MED.

Farmer, informs us that some house
breaker attempted to break into his
house, corner Fifth and Illinois streets.
Saturday night. The would.be robber
tried to pry mp the windows of the
mansion, but failed to do 80 and finally
left the premises. The fellow will be
disgusted beyond the power of express
sion when he learns it was the home of
an editor which he was trying to break
into-and an agricultural editor at
that ! He is evidently new hand at
the business--a regular "chump."
Mr.. Bushnell was well prepared for
the intruder if he had got chance at
him. He was armed with an ash sitter.
Sankey song book, a lead pencil, one
paste brush and stove poker. This
shows that it was lucky for the burglar
that he was unable to pry open a win

A NUMBER of ladies of North Dakota


A NUMBER of ladies of North Dakota
have petitioned Governor Pierce to pro-
claim season Of fasting and prayer
for rain. The most CONSPICUOUS official
proclamation for prayer was ten years
ago in Minnesota, when the governor
directed that the Almighty be asked to
drive the grasshOppers out of the State.
When lot of the insects got up out of
Minnesota and lit over in Iowa and
commenced devouring things, those
who had induced the governor to issue
the proclamation felt that kind and
benefcent providence was exercising
his loving care in their behalf-but the
good people Of Iowa did not join in
their hOsannas.- Falls Press.
