Bmtz Outlets the Baby.


1t was in a neighborhOod of frame houses
In BROOKLYN. Mrs. Blitz had been on shop
ping tour, and on her homeward way had
gone within one door of her house when a
neighbor saluted her:
'tMrs. Blitz, please come in and hear the
noise that is going on in your house Be
heve me, this is what we are subjected to
every time you leave your home. What on
earth do you imagine it can beP
The racket was certainly alarming. The
house of Mrs. Blitz seemed to be in the pos
session of a mob. The noise of falling bodies,
the rumbling of weighty objects, and screams
like the shrieks of maniac sounded through
the intervening walls Mrs. Blitz listened
calmly, and then spoke with reassuring ser
entity:
''Oh, that is all right. Do not be at all
disturbed when you hear that. 1t is only
Mr. Blitz He IS keeping the dear baby

EDWARD J. PHELPS.


Mr.. Edward j. Phelps, who will succeed
John Russell Lowell as minister TO England,
is a son Of the late Senator Phelps, of Yer
mont. His education was received at Middle
bury college President Fillmore appointed
him second comptroller Of the treasury. For
several years he practised law in New York
city, but in 1857 went to Burlington, Vt, and
has sinca been a prominent member Of the
bar in that state. In 1881 he was elected
professor in Yale college, but did not give up
his practice. For more than 25 years he
has been a Democrat, and was once candidate
for governor of Vermont. He was member
Of the last Vermont Constitutional conven-
ton. He is an ex-president of the American
Bar association, and though go years Of age
has the reputation of being man of society,
a diner-out, and a wit. As wit he is not
one of those people who make up for good
thing by long period of silence and depres-
sion, as is the case with a good many of our
professional humorists. On the contrary, his
conversation abounds with shrewd and witty
remarks, and he can be the life of dinner
party without going outside the limits OF
the conversation of q clever man Of the world,
in which case he is most excellently adapted
to the social requirements of his position,
which, though not as important as his diplo-
matte duties, will nevertheless engage most
Of his attention.

however, steps 10 as a mediator and de-
mands a wise adjustment Of things, that
equity NAV be maintained and the welfare
of all promoted, whether it be that Of the
greatest Or least. We have no sympathy
for nor cooperation with any class or set
of men VINO base their claims upon the prin-
ciple that might is right and the ic:l Owe
the poor o living. No man has right to
ANYTHING which does not come 10 him
through The channel Of honest requirement.
IF you would have name, tame or wealth
work for them. Have an object in life; let
it be exalted as possible, aud if backed .hy a
strong determination and honess endeavor,
believe me you will attain it, Much has
been said tnt more written concerning the
antagonism between capital and labor. 70
my mind there is 10 such thing. Between
work and idencss there has Ecye" been any
feeling other than antagonistic, and II is

to poison the minds Of the inHnstrious.--P.
