The Strike of Milwaukee Tailors.

MILwAuKEs, April l5.-The largest strike ever
known in Milwaukee has been inaugurated by
the shop-tailors' union. Over four thousand ope-
ratives are affected, although large minority of
these have no interest in the strike, and are, in
fact, opposed to it. The strike is to secure the
adoption of new scale of prices, mention of
which was made in these dispatches. All the
Wholesale establishments in the city affected
by the strike Outside of the members of the
shop-taiiors union is large number of single
hands, men and WON en- who take work direct
from the wholesale dealers This class, it is
claimed, make on an average more money
than the shop-workers, and are therefore not in
sympathy with the strike They have all quit
work, however, from fear of violence on the part
of the strikers. There seems, so far as can be
learned by interviews with the wholesale deal
ers, no likelihood of any compromise. and after
the usual exhilaration and excitement of the in
ception of a strike, both sides will settle down
to a stubborn test Of which is the stronger.

Birth OF the Microscope.

The origin of the microscope, tina,
most important instrument of modern
research. is lost In the mists of antio.
uity. A rock.crystal lens and a mi.
croscopic engraving were unsarthed
by !.ayard at Nineveh, and many OF
tho gems in the British Museum could
not possibly have been cut by their
ancient engravers with unassisted
sight. Later evidence of the use OF
waterfilled glass globes as magnifying
and burning glasses is furnished by
Fliny, Seneca and Plutarch. Alba
zen, the Arabian, made known in
Europe the magnifying power of
lenses about the 11lh century. 1t is
generally believed that the first mi,
croscope with double glasses was in
vented by Jansen, in 1890, although
Roger Bacon is credited with pre-
vlous invention at Oxford in the 18th
century.

Apparent Distance OF Sun and Moon.
TO determine how far off the moon
actually appears from the eye the late
Mons. Plateau devised an ingenious
experiment, which may be repeated
by any person. Looking steadily at
the full moon a few moments. he
turned suddenl y round toward a wall,
and noted the size of the dark, acct
dental or complementary image when
projected on the wall. When. by
moving forward or backward. this
spectral image is made to assume the
size of the real moon, it must appear
= be the same distance from the OBJ
rver's eye; and Mons. Plateau found
his distance from the wall to be about
So yards. In a similar manner Mons.
Stroobant proved the suns apparent
distance to be about SO yards.

was O colored man who got into an
alteration with a gypsy over a
horse trade which ended in Evans
stricking the gypsy over the
head with a chair. Both were

gypsy got on his horse and rode
toward the gypsy camp, but before
reaching it fell off the horse and
died. There was a doubt as to
wheter death resulted from the
blow or the fall. Theprisoner be-
ing a colored msn was prevented
from having as favorable a presen-
tstion of his case as might Lave
been, owing to strong prejudlces
