THE STRIKERS.
They are Determined to Keep Up the
War With the Burlington

They are Determined to Keep Up the
War With the Burlington.
CHICAGO, July 21.-A local paper says
the settlement of the Burlington strike
does not seem as probable as it did few
days ago. While Hoge, Murphy and Hall,
following Chief Arthur's advice, are
swinging around the circle, the chairmen
of the grievance committees are holding
daily sessions in this city. The change in
front among these gentlemen during the
last forty eight hours has, been
remarkable. Two weeks ago the
most radical strikers would
have accepted the slightest concession
from the company, and would have re-
turned to work, admitting the defeat of
the Brotherhood. To-day these same
men are declaring that nothing but an I'M
conditional surrender on the part of the
company will be accepted by the victo-
rious strikers. This is not the talk of one
or two Burlington strikers, but is the
unanimous expression of leading
Brotherhood men from the great
western roads. The radicals have
obtained complete ascendancy on
all western and several of the eastern
roads. Many of the chairmen of the
grievance committees now in session
have no hesitation in saying a general
strike could be declared if such measure
would, by any possibility, aid the Bur-
lington strikers. Chairman Vrooman, of
the Union Pacific grievance committee,
said yesterday that the engineers will con-
tinue to demand what they struck for
80 and cents per mile
the abolition of classification, ETC.,
and the reinstatement of the strikers.
He spoke within hearing of dozen
members of the general grievance COM
mittee, all of whom emphatically
endorsed and applauded Vroo-
mans position. The radicals declare
Hoge had no authority to repre-
sent the strikers in his trip over the
Burlington road. They rejoice that his
proposition for settlement is being
generally rejected.
The resumption of the boycott against
the 80" road has been openly advocated
by men in Chicago, who were instrumental
in having it declared off. They are never
tired of stating that its abandonment was
one of the great mistakes made by the
strikers and their supporters. From all
accounts the company held out certain
inducements to the strikers in case of a
formal declaration that the strike was off
It seems that the radicals have taken
this offer as an indication that the COM
pany is weakening, and now propose to
renew the fight all along the line. Agents
have been securing for days the states OF
Iowa, Illinois, Missouri and Nebraska
noting the condition of crops and form
ing an estimate of the amount of grain
transportation to be done this fall. All
reports coincide in admitting the crop
will be one of the heaviest harvested for
twenty years. On this they base their
hopes of the success of the boycott.

DASHED TO DEATH.

THREE RIVERS, Quebec, July 21.-A story
of terrible drowning accident comes
from the st. Maurice region. A gang of
thirty or forty men on log drive on
Mattomen river procured some whisky
and in drunken freak decided to run the
rapids. Fourteen men boarded the driv-
ing boats, and, though the sober men in
the party expostulated with them, they
showed the boat off. When in the middle
of the rapids the steersman was seen to
take his paddle out of the water for an
instant. The current, which was terrific,
swung the boat around broadsIde and
over, and the fourteen occupants were
dashed to death on the rocks.

CHICAGO, July 20.-J. A. Bauereisn, al

LEPROSY.
whatever

A short time ago the subject of leprosy
in Hawaii was brought up in the New
South Wales Parliament. Mr.. A. Hof-
nung who happened to be in Sydney at
the time, wrote letter to the ''Herald'
to contradict some statements made by
one of the members. He was evidently
not well acquainted with the subject, land
in a recent issue of the ADVERTISER Mr..
Hofnung was attacked by "Medicus"
for interfering in the matter. As there
is a Hawaiian Consul at Sydney, we
are of the opinion that Mr.. Hoffnung's
interference was entirely uncalled for es-
pecially as he did not seem to know
what he was talking about
The Hawaiian Consul General at Sgd
ney, Mr.. E. o. Smith, did not let the
matter pass by, for we find the following
article in the Sydney "Daily Telegraph
of December 22d:
With regard to the prevalence of leprosy
at Hawaii, we have received from Mr..
Ernest o. Smith, Consul General for Ha-
wall, copy of letter on the subject sent
by that gentleman to Sir Henry Parkes on
October 28th. In this communication the
writer informs the Premier of the results
and conclusions deduced from the latest
and reliable data founded upon reports of
the most eminent medical authorities avail
able to the Government of Hawaii on the
subject of leprosy. Mr.. Smith points out
that the number of cases isolated and I'M
der treatment at Hawaii is 652, all with the
exception of % being natives of the place;
that there is every and good reason to be-
lieve that all cases are known and under
treatment, for although the disease is con-
sidered to be contagious the completeness
of the isolation is proved by the fact that
it is decreasing considerably, and that
while the population of Hawaii is increas-
ing leprOsy is on the decrease. This is
probably owing to the successful efforts of
the Government to discover and isolate all
existing cases. so that although contagious
the spread of leprosy has been checked in
the Hawaiian Islands, from which it is
hoped and expected that in the course of
few years the disease will be eradicated.
The writer adds that the completeness of
the isolation is proved by the fact that
while a vast number of English, American
and other people visit the Hawaiian ISL
ands, it has not been discovered that the
disease has been carried elsewhere by
them

Influence of the Can adian Pacific
Railway On Russia.

The prestige which Russ ia has secured
by the completion of the Pacific Railway
is exercising a powerful effect upon the
minds of the Russian Government and
public. With regard to the former, it
has already led to immediate measures
for strengthening Vladivostock against
an English raid from Vancouver, and
with regard to the latter it has provoked
a widespread Glamour for the construc-
ton of a similar railway through Siberia
to the Pacific. One result Of the fe cling
excited is virtual abandonment of the
policy determined on by the Govern
ment at the beginning of the year to
build no more railways. Whether the
Minister of Railways, after his autumn
holidays in the Caucasus, will devote
himself exclusively to the Siberian rail-
way, in consequence of this feeling, is
very doubtful. In spite of the calcula-
tions of the semi-ofhcial press that Rus
STA could build the Siberian railway with
her own paper roubles, subscribed within
the limits of the empire, the Russian
Government has other routes to open up
before devoting itself exclusively to
Siberia. The Minister of War has
always a powerful voice in the discussion
of all railway enterprises in Russia, and
it is an open secret that his present visit
to Kars is in connection with the con-
struction of railway from that point to
Tiais. This railway will always take
precedence of the Siberian line, because
it is of the highest strategical importance.
So also the railway which General An
nenkof is extending to Samacrand will
surely be carried on to Tashkend before
Siberia has her innings. All the same,
we may regard the Siberian railway
from the present time as one that will
always be upon the carpet, and in con-
nection with this there is likely to arise
of Russian finance that will
exercise an important influence on rail-
way construction. Hitherto Russian
railroads have been constructed mainly
with foreign capital There is now a
demand that the loans for
the future should be raised in Russia
itself. The last loan was subscribed for
by the Russian public ten times over,
showing that there is capital in the
country if the Government will only
apply for it. If the Government built
and retained the working of the lines
with the money raised in this manner,
it is argued that the policy of the State
control of railways, which have been
favored of late years, would be placed on
4 practical footing, and the foreigner in
any form would be altogether excluded. |

A Derbyshire Story.

A correspondent calls to mind that in
Derbyshire a story was told about fifty
years ago which has some resemblance to
the story of Tam O Shanter, as related
or adapted by Burns. Upon dark even
ing, as man was riding homeward, he
passed large house which was all abIaze
with light. From within came a sound
of music and dancing. The house. he
knew, was said to be haunted, and. being
curious to see what was going on, he
went in at the door. He was invited bv
the jewellers, who appeared to be ordinary
men and women, to- supper. According
~ he sat down at the supper table. but
before he began to eat he asked his host
to say grace. The guests said, ''Hushr'
but the host did not say grace. Then the
stranger shut his eyes and said grace
himself devoutly. When he opened them
all was still, the inmates had gone and he
was left in utter darkness. Notes and
Queries.

D1ckens as an AcUor4=

Carlyle referred to Dickens as an actor,
having seen him in one of his amateur
performances. He gave it as his opinion
that Dickens genius was essentially his
trionic and mimetic; that with his faculty
of keen and minute observation, his
general alertness of mind and body, his
mobile power of gesture and expression,
he had all the requisites of a successful
actor, and that had he lived at a great
period of the drama, in the Elizabethan
age for instance, his genius would have
found its appropriate outlet on the stage.
He would have become a popular comic
actor, writing humorous piece now
and then, perhaps, a R4as the custom of
such actors in thos 9Jays. But while
living under different conditions and
working with his pen, bis books still re-
tanned and revealed the native genius OF
their author. They had the sustained, if
rather jerky, iveliness, the pleasant
tricks and mannerisms of humorous por-
traiture upon the stage. He was, in
short, born actor.-The Athen@um.

HOW TO SAVE THE BOYS.

Recently Mr. P. G. Jones offered a
prize for the best essay on GLOW to
reach the young men" That is a very
important question but there is to our
mind one equally important, and that is,
"How to save, the boys" One cannot
go out at night without finding young
boys in different parts OF the town, some
in places where they have no business to
be. By boys we mean those between the
ages of twelve and seventeen years.
Women who have sons to rear dread
the demoralizing influence of bad asso-
GATES, ought to understand the nature of
young manhood. 1t is disturbed by
vague ambitions, by thirst for action, by
longing for excitement, by inexpressible
desires to touch life in manifold ways. If
you, mothers. rear your sons so that
their homes are associated with the re-
preston OF natural instincts, you will be
sure to throw them in the society that in
any measure can supply the need of
their hearts. They do not 90 to the
saloon or mix up with bad companions.
for the love of it, they go for the amin
ated and hilarious companionship they
find, which they discover does so much

their breasts. See to it, then, that
homes compete with public places in at
tractiveness. Illuminate your rooms.

WE may safely predict that in month
from now the city will be lighted with
the electric light, as the wheel to run
the water power is expected on the next
steamer. A New York paper says
electric lights have many advantages over
other lights, and even if it costs more
than they do, it would be economical to
use them. They are great crime re-
strainers. A dozen electric lights and
one policeman will take better care of a
given extent of territory than half
dozen policemen without the electric
lights. Milk and chicken thieves may
be scarce after we get the lights in use.
