The Old TIme Rohemians.

Fifteen years ago it was the pride OF
reporters to be called "Bohemiaps I"
They were, as a rule, imitators of Poe and
the earlier coterie of erratic geniuses, who
spent an hour on literary work and two
hours in pushing the social glass. To DO
able to drink with politicians and hold
their own with clubmen was as much a
qualification for n reporter as to be able
to write well, and indeed the grand cen
ters for the news of the day were the bar
rooms and beer saloons, where the report.
ers gathered to meet the politicians and
secure items. Few of them had any
home life They were, as a class, young
men who lived in furnished rooms or
hotels, and snatched their meals at any
convenient hour wherever they happened
to be. They were bold and enterPrising,
for they had to be SO in order TO succeed
in their work. They were quick and
ready writers, brimful Of sparkling wit,
which dropped from their pens as readily
as the ink would flow. The office was
their home, and as the space system was
in vogue then, as it is very generally now,
there were always plenty Of the boys on
hand at all hours of the day and night to
respond to the call of the city editor No
trick or device was regarded as question
able so long as the longed-for news was
obtained, and some Of the means resorted
to would have been inexcusable III any
other business. New York Times.

federation years ago-as far back as
August, 1871, at its annual convention in
Columbus, Ohio-and, so far as we know,
II Is the first trades union to advocate the
movement in this country. The Amalga-
mated Association is still in favor of a
federation, but thinks it unwise, ill-timed
and inOppOrtune for such an organization
TO branch out and seek to remedy, by
legislation or otherwise, the thousand and
one grievances the laboring man seems to
be heir to, until such time as all trades
connected with such federation are
thoroughly organized and prepared to move
IN solid phalanN and compel respect and
recognition. Past experience in trades
unions forces Us to conclude that if the
Federation would contine itself to the
building up of national or international
unions among the different trades, and by
moral and substantial support aid in get
ting the workmen in the different trades
good, living wages-the prime object and
fundamental principle of trades unions-it
would be as much as could reasonably be
expected of il for the next five years at
least. Good wages once secured, based,
wherever it could be done, upon equitable
scales, other benefits, such as the eight
hour law, &c., &c, would follow as o mat
ter Of course. Good, living wages is what
cements wOrkingmen together in union.
With meagre wages and consequent poor
living and scant clothing, workingmen
have no heart to join in any movement
other than one intended to give them di
rect advance in wages. Aim to secure this
first, and other benefits will follow. The
free-trade plank ingrafted in the Federated
platform at their convention in this city
in ISL caused the Amalganated AssOcia-
ton of lion and Steel Workers To with
draw from it. That plank is now with
drwn, however, and the latter organization
may see its way clear to connect itself with
the Federation at some future time

Oh Saturday last the Shuma garrison teegraphed to
the Bulgarian Minister of War at Sophia that they

anarchy was niurng the rights and interests of the
people and the country that they desired the release

manded by Russia, and that they wished General

considered by the Bulgarian Government in order to
avoid breach between two sister nations. Other
wise the message concluded " the garrison reserve
