ity about them. Of course, Mi.
Jones is Justified in the temporary
use of gum, while the memory OF
his last cud of tobacco is still poig-
nant. Certainly q gum-chewing
community like Chicago cannot
consistently object to it, but, never
thoiess, q Georgian ceases to be
Georgian in the exact measure that
he takes to gum. 1t is inconsistent
with unyioIdlng convictions, and
has tendency to rob its votary of
the courage to proclaim them. No
habItual gum-chcwer would have
tho courage to invite such of his
audience as did not approve his
methods to dope OUT" nor would
he be likely to describe supreme
court Judges as sold mash tubs"
in taking TO gum, Mr.. Jones has
made q concession to the public
sentiment of Chicago such us the
public sentiment of Georgia will
hardly approve, and Though we do
not pretend Ia say what tine result
will he, we wait for its develop
ment with some forebodings.-St.

Setter Van, of Macon, Ga, is we'll
known as one of the best bird dogs
in the land, but now he has immor-
talizcd himself. His master was
exercising him in a field where q
drove of cattle was grazing, and
Van came to point IN beautiful
form. While his master was walk
ing slowly up, enjoying the sight,
q big bull walked out from the
drove and advanced upon the mo-
tionless dog with great confidence.
To his establishment the dog didn't
stir. The bull stopped, looked sur
prIsed, and took q few more steps.
Then he stopped, looked, and again
advanced, and SO by degrees he
reached the dog and brushed the
extended tail with his nose. Then
Van gave evidence of being alive
by curling the tail deity between
his legs, but otherwise remained
as motionless as craven image.
Somewhat emboldened by this sue
cess the hull, apparently still in
doubt, slowly put his horns under
Vans hind legs and carefully lifted
them q couple of feet from the
ground. Van never fiInohed. Just
then the birds arose and the mas
ter fired, whereupon the dog turn
ed upon the bull with fury, and
chased him until he had fully
avenged the insult.

April Century, on Strikes, Lock
outs, and Arbitration" in which he
says: Zone of the most satlsfac-
tory cases of concilIatiOn and arbi-
tratIons IN America was the settle
mcnt of a serious strike in the
Philadelphia shoe trade, in 1884.
This was arranged by Hon. J. NJ.
Washburn, with some cooperation
of tho Peace union. About 81 900
daily wages was involved, and
what proved to be cold winter
was before the working people.
The settlement saved this, with all
the peace and comfort, health and
morals involved. Not the least of
the advantages gained was the for
mutation of eleven rules, with notes
on the same. The value of these
rules and notes is shown by their
having since settled several strikes
IN other trades and other states.
They were posted up in the facto-
rics, and the workmen by way of
pleasantly, called them 'rhe Elov-
