THE PARIS STRIKE.
Socialists Crowding to the Scene.

Socialists CrOwdinG to the Scene.
PARIS, August 1.-The strike which
originated few days ago in the defec
ton of few hundred navvies has ex
tended TO the inclusion of thousands OF
that class of workmen, and threatens tc
involve an immense number of more
ssilled laborcrs. AS is usual, not TO say
invariable in such cases in continental
cities, the strike has attracted a grea,
many socialists 10 the scene, the most
Of them coming from Belgium. Thi.
element has for several days been indus
tiiOusly sowing seeds Of discord among
laboring men not necessarily affected by
the strike of the naSvies, and unless the
rolice are more alert and show firmel
disposition to quell the prevailing dis
order, the control of the idle crowds
constantly marching in procession
through the principal streets will become
tro strong for them to handle, and their
dispersion must ultimately be given ovel
10 the hands of the more numerous and
barshIy inclined soldier.
Among the gend' d'armes the working
man, real or self-styled, finds much sym.
pathy and his acts of lawlessness upon
occasions similar to the present strike are
in great measure overlooked or con
doned; but with the military differen,
methods prevail in dealing with mobs
J he fact that the Socialists have taken
part in the contest between employer
and employees, now being waged in the
French Capital, must finally prove OF
great disadvantage to the strikers, de-
spite the fact that the harangues of the
leaders Of the Communistic party are
having great effect in swelling the ranks
OF the paraders and presumably bringing
into the struggle labOrers who otherwise
would hold themselves aloof from par.

Dreams of Deaf Persons.

In visiting institutions for the blind and
the deaf have made inquiry, and have
never found an instance Of person born
deaf, or of a child who lost his hearing
before he was four years Of age, dreaming
of hearing Among the results of recent
inquiries present the following from the
principal OF the State Institution for the
Blind and Deaf at st. Augustine, Fla:
Il have closely questioned the deaf
children here as to whether they have ever
dreamed Of hearing, and the invariable
answer is no / have asked the same
question of upwards of fifty deaf persons
with the same result, except where the
person interrogated had lost his hearing
after learning to talk. These last
mentioned are all persons of some educa,
ton who understood the question fully and
were very positive that they had never
dreamed of hearing more than rumbling

THE PRESIDENT AT WORK.
Considering the River and Harbor Bill
The Senate's Revenue Measure.

The Senate'S Revenue measure
WASHINGTON. August 1.-The Presi.
dent, after a delightful salt sea and pisca-
torial experience of three days in the
vicinity of Fire Island, was IN his office
again to-day hard at work. The alarm
W which was raised over his absence was
without foundation as his trip was ar.
ranged with reference to the demands OF
public duty. The river anil harbor bill
champions can now have their
measure go to the Presi.
dent and will soon be favored with the
Executives conclusions upon its merits
The bill aggregates sum exceeding $50,
100000. There are many items OF legili.
mate expenditure and many items OF
doubtful utility, and il the latter out.
weigh the former the country may expect
a veto.
The President, on former bills Of this
character, has been in the habit Of refer
ring them TO the Secretary of war, who
in turn has conferred with the engineers
in charge, before taking final action The
bill which reached the White House
yesterday will be subjected to the same
careful scrutiny.
The Republicans of the Senate sub

order to make sufficient cut In the

Sugar and salt, if there is a disposition to

Face Reading Not a science.

deny that the expression Of a mans face
Is really an index of the persons soul, as
1t Is generally conceded to be, and as the

There is u tradition that far back in
the days of which history tells US nothing
there was no speech Of language among
men, but that men read each others
wants and wishes in their faces, and as
the world was pure, nothing but purity
appeared in the expression Of the human
face. But wickedness crept in and men
sought to keep from their faces the evil
that was in their hearts, thus preventing

The syndicate" Systems Growth.

don't think that many people outside
the newspaper business arc aware OF the
extent to which the so called newspaper
syndicates affect the supply Of reading
matter in the daily papers. The system
is the growth Of a few years only, but
bids fair to revolutionizc In q measure
the journalistic profession. Nowadays
most men of mark in the newspaper
world derive their chief income by writ
ing for the syndicatcs signed articles on
special subjects, which appear in a score
of out of town papers simultaneously
Serial and short stories are supplied in
like manner, and in both case3 the syndi-
catecSn naturally afford to pay higher
rates Chan any one newspaper proprietor.
Tho business is one which needs keen
editorial instinct to insure success.-The
