Hazelton pa special: After the re-
cess Mr.. Pardee said that the yearly pay
during 1886 was 5000, 500 in cash, be-
sides what was deducted from the mi
ners' pay for merchandise, rent etc
''The cost of mining a ton of coal is over
81. During July~and August last the
average pay of the miners was SO per
day. The company's miners received
S11.59 per week, laborers from S9.11 to
SO. "a per week, outside laborers from 81
to SIPS per day, and the cause of the
strike was due, suppose, to the fact
that we would not recognize the
Knights of Labor and the Amalgamated
association. | have no more objection
to my employees joining labor organiza-
tl0ns than have To them joining the
Methodist church. :"
Mr. Pardee pronounced the evidence
OF the Hon. ID. NJ. Evans at yesterdays
session, so far as it related TO any Of his
workings, as false in many particulars,
and tissue of falsehoods, replying to
them in detail.
On being asked whether the opera
tors of this region would make terms
with the men he replied:
When our men 90 to work we will,
confer with them, but they must 20 to
work on the same terms that they had
before they struck; we will treat with
them about any grievances.
Calvin Pardee was next called and ex-
amined by Judge Parker. His testi-
mony was similar to that of his father.
and in some instances more directly to
the point regarding the Hon. ID. NJ.
Evans testimony. He took occasion to
state: although Evans is the repre-
sentative from that region he also the
representative liar of the region" After
answering few other questions regard

penses OF running the pumps, ETC., Mr..
Pardee left the witness stand
A. b. Mcclellan, of Clifton, one of the

GOSSIP FROM WASHINGTON.

Congressman Lyman, of Council
Bluffs, presented a memorial from the
legislature of Iowa providing for a
change in the law relating to the cleo
ton of senators. At present the law is
blind, and Iowa is compelled to elect
such senators twice in order to avoid il
legal action.
The house committee on public lands
received report from Payson, of Hi
nois, who was some time ago designated
as a sub-committeeman on the bill quiet
ing the title to the settlers on the Des
Moines river lands in Iowa. Payson
recommended passage of a bill which is
similar to the one vetoed by President
Cleveland,
1t is understood that the senate COM
mittee on rules has got so far in its con-
sideration of the proposed open execu-
tive session proposition as to agree to
report an amendment to the present
rules making it in order by majority
vote to remove the injunction of secrecy
from treaty or to consider and act on
treaty in public.
Senator Paddock reported back with
favorable recommendation Senator
Manderson's bill to abolish the office of
surveyor general for Nebraska and Iowa.
The object of the bill is to get the books
IN the hands of the secretary of state, SO
that when resurveys are necessary they
can be made. There are no unsurveyed
lands in the state of Nebraska to-day.
Congressman Laird, of Nebraska, in
troduced bill which will interest not
only the national government, but every
state. Mr. Laird's bill provides that
where soldiers homes are established
they shall be paid at the rate of 300 per
annum for each inmate. The bill meets
with the approval of the national board
of control of soldiers home, and, with
this prestige, will doubtless become a
law. A similar bill has been introduced
in the senate.
The bill introduced by Carey, of Wyo-
ming, for the formation and admission
into the union of the state of Wyoming,
provided a grant of land to the state for
school purposes to the amount Of SOC, 900
acres; 100 sections of lands for agricul-
tural college; 80 sections for public
buildings; % sections for penitentiary,
and 10 sections for insane asylum. The
jim also pIoNlues lof grant 10 the state
of 5000, 600 of acres of arid lands on con-
dition the state shall reclaim or cause
such lands to be reclaimed, and shall
not part with its title to any subdivision
OF said lands until the reclamation is
complete. Mr.. Carey says the terri |
tory is well prepared for state govern
ment.
Mr.. Sumner Slater, one of the leading
music. teachers of Atlanta, has been
placed under the ban of society in that
city, because he taught class of col
ored pupils.

While, TO mike great captain, all the
mental and Physical qualities must exist
in the greatest possible strength, varieties
Of these in combination, to a greater OF
less degree, have been possessed by gen.
eBals of less or greater repute in the
worlds history, and the number and in
tensity of these qualifications in the com
blnation give the general his relativ,
place in the list of great soldiers. Som,
generals are only brilliant upon the battle
.ield. and some even only i'll parJiculaf
phases Of hattie, though they may pos
sess certain qualities of a great leader 10
an extent which amounts, in its way, 20
en- exhibition of genius as great as any
great captain has ever shown.
The particular quality which made Ma
poleon seize the colors and incite his troops
to follow him at the bridge of Arcola is
well worthy of attention as being, at
times, Il most important factor in battle.
Alexander and Henry Of Navarro, were
leaders whose personal power on the
battle field ma: be said to have directly
influenced m:Iny OF their victories. Many
# Napoieon's lieutenants had this instinct
# leadership; Ieunes and Massena to an
eminent degree Washington showed il
IN tue power Oh HIS personal presence 70
change L retreat into an attack, and Scott
made q brilliant display of il at the battle
Of Lundy's Lanc. Tire civil war shows
but little of this divine gift. Gen. C. T.
Smith may be said TO have had the genius
Of battle highly developed in him. as was
conspicuously shown at the battle of Fort
poncison. II Is not always given u
genius to succeed in these efforts. Ma
poleon failed Mt the battle Of Arcola
though it is possible that the desperat-
fighting around his person on the ctuse
way kept the enemy closely employees
until another force had taken the town Il
rear, and that, therefore, his act secured
his great yictory.-Gen. 'Baldy" Smitl

Public Discussion of the English De-

Lament Criticised for their Absence
from Its Proceedings.

LONDON, May 19.-The rumor which OBJ
tained general circulation in Berlin that
an imperial decree was about to be issued
the effect OF which would almost wholly
prohibit Frenchmen from visiting Alsace-
Lorraine is probably much exaggerated.
Nevertheless, there is a great deal of indig-
nation i'll the German Capital at the OBJ
staeles thrown in the way OF and restrictions
imposed upon German tourists upon the
French frontier, and it is quite
probable that some measure OF re-
pr.sal will be resorted to. The North
German Gazette, which is nothing if not
official in its utterances, points to the facts
that France has twice the number OF efil-
cials on the frontier than Germany has
and adds that most of them are Alsatians.
The incidents which occurred on the
frontier during last year, the Gazette con-
tinues clearly shows the object Of the
French Government i'll maintaining the
large force of frontier guards that it does
and makes it the more necessary that Ger
many should adopt some method of retalia-
ton.
The refusal of Lord Mayor DeKeyser to
grant the use of the Guild hall to the dis
cussion of the matter of strengthening the
defenses of the country has brought
storm of denunciation upon his head. The
Saint James Gazette characteriZes his Lord
ships refusal upon the ground that further
discussion is unnecessary" as insolent and
ignorant bombast and suggests that Mr..
Dekeyser in replying TO the application for
the hall acted upon hint from the Cabinet
and not at all upon anything suggested by
his narrow mind.
United Ireland vigorously scores the
Nationalist members of Parliament for
their uniformly small attendance in the
House of Commons, when the needs of the
cause, in whose interests they we're elected,
demand the presence i'll his scat of every
man. Instead of there being eighty-six
Parnellite members in the House, as there
| should be, the paper asserts only half OF
that force is really effective. This article
was obviously written with special refer
ence 10 the vote on the King Harmon
salary bill the other evening when the at
| tendance of nine more Irish members
would have given majority of one against
the Government, but its appearance IN a
paper whose editor has once deliberately
deprived his party of his Parliamentary
services by defying the Government to the
: end of his being thrown into Jail and is
doing his level best to have himself put
there again, with excellent prospects of
success, is somewhat amusing, not to say
| absurd

Until within few years only small
number of even the veal lest persons,
especially in America, fel that they coald
afford to include peacocks among their
pets. The feathers were costly, and every
woman prided herself upon the possession
of a few in her bonnet. II she were for
tunate enough to have al made Of these
feathers she felt proud j d ed. Gradu-
ally, as the huaters secured 'rger guam
titles. wealthy people began IL use them
for decorative purposes. Elegant screens,
some with the feathers spread thinly on q
cleth surface, and others, which were
more costly, with the feathers closely
sewed together; fans with silver handles,
sofa cushions and chair seats were made
of the brilliant plumage. The feathers
were even used in the decoration of walls.
and for friezes and dadpes.
But suddenly, and apparently without
cause, the demand cea.ed The feather
that had previously been the joy OF the
owner, were looked upon with distaste
and ps,nounced out of fashion. They
were ruthiessly torn FROM the hats they
had adorned, from walls aHd screens, and
thrown into the rubbish heaps.
Whence came this sudden and unex-
planned dislike9 The reporter was told
that an ancieI- superstition to the effect
that peacocks and peacocks' feathers were
sure 20 bring bad luCk to their owner had
been revived and had brought about the
downfall of the fashion. He made in
quiries at the stores where peacock feath-
ers were formerly supplied, and found
that the demand for them had ceased en-
tirely. AT Tiffany's 1t was said that they
had not sold fan or screen of peacock
feathers for several years. Customers
never ask for them. The reporter was in
formed at other houses that feathers that
formerly sold at high prices can now be
obtained for twenty-five, fifty and seventy.
