JOLIET, H., May 25.-The expected
trouble at the Braidwood mines yes
terday did not occur as the men did
not attempt to go to work. Some of
the strikers threw couple of dyna-
mite bombs On the property OF the Will
mingtOn coal association, which ex-
ploded with loud noise, aud which
startled the BraidwoOd people consid
erably, it was thought that an effort
was being made by the strikers to des-
troy the mines. The men who are
willing to go to work at the prices
offered are afraid that if they attempt
to enter the mines the desperate Ital-
ians will carry out their threats of set
ting fire to the mines. Sheriff Huston
has telegraphed Governor Fifer that
the mayor of Braidwood has called up
on him to protect property, and that
he had been to Braidwood, and found
the situation most critical and was
fearful that he could not preserve the
peace, and protect property
and lives without the and
of the militia. The governor
telegraphed the sheriff that he must
preserve the eace, and protect the
lives and property of the miners and
operators at all hazards, even to the
calling out of the militia. 1t is thought
that no attempt will be made to resume
work in the mines before Monday.
AT INDIANAPOLIS.
INDIANAPOLIS, May 25.-Two miners
who compose a committee of the Clay
county miners, are here soliciting aid.
They state that the miners are suffer
ing from want, and that the destitu-
ton in many of the families is terrible.
OF the 1900 miners who have quit
work rather than submit TO the Is per
cent reduction, hardly one in ten has
any means to live upon. Many of the
miners are leaving the county. but
those having families are powerless to
get away.

THE HALF OF woMAN.s WORK.

20, dearie me- sighed Mrs Brown, ''I'm never,
never through;
There's work enough about this house for
twenty hands to do.
lhaEen't time to even think; I'm going all the
day
And just because my family won't put their
things away.
''There's Mr.. Brown who wants TO see me
smiling with delight
And not feel cross and tired out when he comes
home at night;
You'd think that he, at least, would try to save
the work do,
And by his good example, make the children
help me too.
@But, mol He's worse than all the restin leav-
ing things around;
His books and tools andclothing are all over by
me found
thousand needless steps dayI take for him
alone.
And bend my back hundred times when he
don'thear me groan.
sIfhe who wants me beautiful and pleasant
won't reflect
And exercise little care surely can't ex-
pect
The children to be different; like father is like
son,
And that is why woman's work is never
never DONE
''The children leave their coats and caps and
play-things all about,
And when again they want them for their
mother they must shout;
For she, ofcourse, has picked them up and put
them all away
Because She can not bear to see the home in
disarray.
"sometimes when Ihave left them for, hope,
better land,
And can not wait upon them with the patience
they demand,
They'll miss and mourn the one who tolls for
them alone all day,
And wish, too late, that they had learned to put
their things away"

An Author Ships as a Sailor.

Hans Jaeger, one of the cleverest au-
thors of Norway, has accepted the place
of a common sailor on one Of the Scan
dinavian ships. Long residence in the
capital and close study of the lower
classes Of society, which he loves to
write about in his books, have also un-
dermined his health, forcing him to
adopt another profession. Although his
hands were soft and his head was GOV.
cred by worn-out silk hat when asking
for place before the mast, his powerful
frame gave the captaiA confidence in
him, and secured him the place., 1t is
said, however, that he will devote his
few leisure hours to finishing a new
novel. Much interest is now taken in
his career, as it was not generally
known that he was SO poverty-stricken.

OUR YOUNG READERS.
TWO LITTLE COUSINS

TWO LITTLE COUSINS
Two little cousins were Johnny Wing
And Mary MerEweather;
And they talked Of almost every thing,
And they always played together. =
Down by the pond and up in the hay,
And out where the mon were moving,
They wandered many merry day,
With checks that were red and glowing
But they came to Mary's mother one day
With discontented faces;
And asked "Will we always have to stay
In such common, homely placesi
"we are tired OF being Johnny Wing
And Mary Merriweather--
We want to be Queen and King,
And live in state togetheri"
''Why, then" she replied, ''the very best
thing,
II little help we can borrow,
WIN be to play you are Queen and King
We will try to begin tomorrow"
Then mammals fingers grew busy indeed,
To prepare for grand ovation;
And the neighbors were bidden to come with
speed
To witness the coronation.
She made them crowns OF paper Of gold,
And throne with crimson cover,
And dressed them in robes that we're fold on
fold
OF tinsel andlace all over.
She placed on his chubby finger a ring,
And in Mary hair feather;
You would never have guessed 1t was Johnny
Wing
And Mary Merriweather.
There never were hearts more glad and gay
Than theirs, when their uncle crowned
them;
There never were monarchs more proud than
they,
When their subjects knelt around them.
'Long live the Queeni Long live the Kingl
Long reign they both togetherl"
Cried fat and jolly miller Wing
And farmer Merriweather
Then all OF their friends such homage paid,
And gave them respect so duly.
They quite forgot that they only played,
And thought they were regning truly.
Then they sat in the parlor hours each day,
While other children were playing,
And they bowed and smiled in the stateliest
way,
AT the dull things people were saying
And both oftheir papas were mobiles great
Who came with others beside,
And they sat and talked OF affairs OF state,
Till the children nearly cried.
So it all went on from day to day,
Till OF sitting around they were tired;
N1anvrx .Fa a1A ,NtA a,,A
And they dreaded to be admired.
They rode in carriage till they were sick;
They hated the company fine;
And they wished for a bowl OF bread and
milk,
When asked upon dainties to dine.
Well, Marys mother came in one day
With some royal guests from the lawn;
And "Yonr Majesties' she was going to say,
But the King and Queen were gone.
The splendid coat, the shining gown,
In a corner were thrown aside;
A vacant throne and broken crown
Were the only things she spied.
But calico dress and an old straw hat
In the woodward soon were seen;
"And what" she cried. do you mean by
that,
And where are the King and QueenT"
Then the answer came from Mary's lips,
AS they stood with downcast eyes:
why Johnny is going to pick up chips,
And am to make mud pies.
1--WE are tired Of being Queen and King,
We are going to quit together;
We want to be just Johnny Wing,
And Mary Merriweather."

Some Of Its Defeats Pointed Out By :
Prominent Irish SCHOLAR.

some OF Its Defects Pointed Out By =
Prominent Irish Scholar.
What intelligent visiting foreigners
think Of manners and customs in our re.
public is always interesting to this
thoughtful citizen. The latest OF such
critics is Prof. Mahaffy, Of Dublin, wbc
studied particularly certain aspects Of
university education IN this country.
Regarding one, at least, Of his subjects
Of study, he came to distinct conclusions
which have direct interest for Amer.
leans.
The professor maintains that there is
no clearly cut standard of culture among
u.s. He intimates that wealth is in all
but few of the larger cities either the
most potent factor in determining de-
sire for culture, or is satisfactory so
cial substitute for the charm of mind,
manners and conversation which should
be possessed by cultured persons. After
remarking that most American college
presidents and instructors are under,
paid, Prof Mahaffy writes:
1.-THE ability OF nation will not run into such
poor and narrow channels, but viii surely seek
out those paths which lead to wealth In q
country where wealth is the only aristocraoy.
The professor is much troubled by what
he hints is the vagueness of theAmerican
standard of culture, and with apparent
reason, inasmuch as a graduate of our
larger colleges
"does not enjoy the rank to which he is en-.
titled when some hundred other colleges con.
fer the same name IA b. Bachelor OF Artist
on very different educated students. In some
colleges one can graduate as an A. B. without
knowing one word Of Greek or even Latin, q
fact which. when understood In Europe will
tend to make US suspicious Of oil American de.
grees
There is enough truth in the profess
or's deductions to make them worthy Of
careful scrutiny. 1t can not be doubted
that the standard of culture Ia America
is more accommodating than it is in Eu-
rope with its centuries of governmental
nurture of learning. But on the other
hand, practical education is more widely
diffused in our republic than it is
abroad 1t is also true that more and
more attention is paid to university edu-
cation of the broadcast kinda fact
which is proven by the increasing size
of the classes entering our Universities.
