Bodily health is SO closely allied to mental vigor
and the latter DEFENDS SO entirely to the former
that any advice for the protection Of health is Of
immense importance to business men. In large
cities, many places employ thousands under the
roof, Suppose an average proportion Of these Euf-

lungs, or lame back and sides; tortured with
rheumatism and neuralgia; can you estimate the
sum total to be deducted from the mental working
capacity of this throng? Multiply this by the hun

A Brother sadly disappointed.
Mr.. Sussman Rothchild, a gentleman from
San Francisco, arrived in town Monday on
a visit to his brother, Joseph Rothchild, who
died and was buried that day. Mr.. Roth
child had not seen the deceased brother since
twenty three years. Mr.. Sussman Rothchild
belongs in Bavaria, Germany, but left there
forty years ago and proceeded to the West,
where he began life as a merchant and
amassed much wealth. Correspondence be-
tween the brothers had ceased for many
years, but was resumed some time ago, and q
recent letter received by Mr.. Joseph Roth
child from his brother expressed the lRtter'a
intention of soon coming eastward on visit.
He did not fix the date, but stated that she
would turn up when least expected" He
did not become informed of the death of his
brother until he reached New Haven, and
when he arrived at the home an affecting scene
took place. Mr.. Rothchild, who has retired
from business and is millionaire, will re-
main in New Haven for short season.

NEW YORK. May q
Stocks were very dull and generally weak today,
st. Paul and Union Pacific monopolizing most of
the attention. The opening was weak with de-
clines ranging to 81 per cent. in Louisville and
Nashville The traders hammered St. Paul and it
went down a point on heavy transactions. The
pressure was removed after II O'Clock and the bus
mess done in it dwindled to ordinary proportions
and up to noon the market was featureless. After
that the dealings were enlivened by slight squirt
OF activity. accompanied by renewed weakness in
several stocks but the temper of speculation then
underwent change and small fractions were re-
gained. The duIlness remained unrelieved and the

WINS A YANKEE BRIDE.

HARTFORD, May 22.-The Chinese Lee fam
lily must have fondness for American wives.
While the thoughts of many are directed to
the baby girl of Yam Phou Lee and his Amer
lean bride of year, who reside in New Ha-
ven, the gossips of this city are busy discuss
ing the approaching marriage of another
Chinese Lee and a Hartford sehoolma'am
The prospective groom bears the symbolic
name of Wah, although of late his sweetheart
has endeavored to Americanize him by in
structing him to sign himself w. Lee. He is
proprietor of laundry. He has been in this
country about twelve years. A few years ago
he was converted to the Christian religion in
New York mission and off went the pigtail.
He then drifted to Springfield, where he
joined Baptist church. He has lived in this
city nearly two years and is regular attend
ant at the South Methodist church.
His hair is jet black, glossy and cut in the
latest style, and he sports little moustache.
He dresses in the fashion, and but for his
broken speech would pass in any society.
His cousin and companion, Yen Lee, is
studying for the ministry at Moody's school.
The lady who is to become Mrs. Lee is Miss
Ida Spsulding, a teacher, who has been
studying at the State Normal school. Miss
SpauldiDg became acquainted with Wah
Lee in her work in the Chinese mission OF
the South Methodist church.

CONTROLLING THE CONSOLIDATE

New York & New England shows considerable
strength, and it Is believed that the buying has
been gely of late by the Standard oil interest 1t
is said in quiet way that New England parties
have secured control of the New York, New Haven
& Hartford-Boston Post.
The story goes hereabouts that the attempt
to secure control was failure. 1t is said
that as high as $275 per share was offered fo-
big enough block to assure control of the
road. A pool was formed and large stock
holders solicited to unite. Some did, but
the attempt to get half of the $15, 500, 900 of
stock failed. It is in many hands and more
difficult of picking up than the New England
and similar stock market specialties

rHE sTRIKK.

What is known as the Reading strike
was still hanging on at latest accounts.
1t is said to be the biggest strike Of coal
miners that has ever occurred in this
country. 1t all grows out Of a demand
by the men for an advance of twelve
cents q ton for mining the coal. Until
recently the market price was about 81
per ton. When it came down TO this
figure the men had been compelled 10
stand a cut Of IL cents a ton in the cost OF
mining it. Lately a combination put the
market rate up to So per ton, whereupon
the men made a demand for the r~estora.
ton Of the IL cents a ton which they had
lost when it went down. The mine own
ers refused to yield to their demand, and
hence the strike. There is rs cents a ton
protection on coal, even more than the
Pennsylvania miner gets for mining it.
The latest phase Of the strike is that the
mine owners are importing foreign labor.
ers to take the place of the old and reli.
able miners who have hitherto worked
these mines. We wonder if it ever &C.
ours to any me that these imported men
comprise the identical "pauper labor Of
Europe" that we hear SO much about.
By bringing it over here does not make
it any less "pauper labor" To our own
working men it does not matter which
side of the Atlantic it is employed, if it
takes the work out of their hands and
the bread out of their mouths. The pro-
tectionist who will protect the article
and not the mantle capital and not the
labor-is a ~cringing hypocrite, unworthy
the title of free American. Aud yet this
is precisely the position of thousands Of
men who talk loudest on the subject. In
retaliation for the treatment they have
received, the Reading miners are now
resolving TO vote for no man for Congress
at the next election who will not, when
elected, vote to remove the rs cents per
ton duty from coal. Who can blame
them?

THE RAILkOAR.

The Salt Lake Tribune says: As yet
the men who have the project Of build
ing a railroad from this city to Los An
geles, have made no certain sign that they
intend to proceed with the work. OF
course ii is a good deal Of q task to or
ganize and put in motion the construc-
tion Of a long line Of railroad; the weather
has been exceedingly unpropitious for
three weeks past, and the business may
yet come out all right. At the same time
the people here should be on the alert,
and 50 fix things that, if the company
fails, they will be able to proceed Oh their
W account. They should get in the
form Of a law, authority which will en-
able this city, if the property owners SO
desire, to subscribe for stock in the en-
terprise, and the same privilege should
be extended to the cities and counties OF
the Territories. There is but one thought
among the people as to the effect OF the
road upon this region. 1t would give it
new life, it would be more for it than all
else that has been done up to this date.
That is if, when built, the road will be
so managed as to draw to this city the
trade which pertains naturally to it. The
Railway Age discussing the project says:
"The country which the new line pro-
poses TO traverse, is not likely to ever
| furnish much local business, although it
has considerable possibilities in the way
| Of mining" The writer in the Age of
course has no conception what one pro-
ductive mine means to q transportation
company, and therefore cannot estimate
what fifty mining districts would be to
such a line. At fair rates we estimate
that the local business OF this road would
be 30 per cent net on the legitimate cost
| of the road. We know Of no other line
which has any such promise, and we look
upon II as a g%rievous pity that the prop
| erty owners Of this city have not the sa-
gacity and sand to put the road through
and to own it themselves. They could
do so if they only thought SO. Were the
city to head the subscription by a sub
scription of $500, 900 the road would not
only pay back the amount, but would
within ten years pave and sewer and sd.
vance this city until there would be no
place like il in all the West. But no
matter. If the present organization shall
within a reasonable time proceed with
the work it will be all right. AT the same
time the people should prepare for pos
sible failure, and see that things are SO
arranged that if the failure comes they
will be able to at once arrange the project
on a new basis and drive the road through
without delay. The fact Of their start.
ing would, within q week, add to the
value Of realty in this city S5 for every
81 advanced to the road.

pnunrruL STATE.

In making Presidential figures for this
Fall, some Eastern Democratic journals
are in the habit Of chasing California as
sdoubtful state. There is nothing doubt
full about California. To u mind il is
as certain to 20 Republican as election
day arrives. Nor will it matter who the
Republican candidate may be. 1t is to-
day a reliable Republican State for any
man that party may put up. OF course
it would 20 stronger for Blaine than any
other Republican candidate, but it will
go strong enough for any Republican can
didate. Blaine lie much stronger in all
Of the Pacific Coast States than he is
East. But ii will not do TO claim the
Golden State as likely to vote for Mr..
Cleveland in any event, whether the Re-
publican candidate be the Plumed Knight
or some one else. It will not do to ig.
more the fact that some 20, 900 or 80, 900
men will vote in that State this Fall who
have never voted there before. Most Of
these new settlers came from Republican
States in the East, and il is quite likely
that they have brought their politics
along with them. II they have, it means
nothing less than a sweeping Republican
triumph beyond the Sierras at the COM
ing election. California is in no sense .
doubtful State. The attitude Of Sena-
tors Stanford and Stewart. in voting for
the confirmation Of Lamar as a Justice Of
the Supreme Court. looks like railroads
might favor Mr.. Cleveland, but il they
should they could not carry the State for
him. The one-lunged contingent will be
found too numerous to be overcome by
any sort Of pressure.
