NOT A CAR WHEEL TURNING.
STRIKE OF STREET RAILROAD MEN IN
MINNEAPOLIS.
THE sTopPAGE EXPECTED TO AFFECT ST. PAUL
COMPLAINT OF THE CORPORATION THAT
Ut 70 MAnING NO MONEY
IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIBuNEI


Minneapolis. April l1--Not wheel is turning
on any street-car line in this city, and before
tomorrow night it is probable that the strike
will be extended TO ST. Paul The cause is the
order OF President Lowrey issued last night, reduc-
ing the wages OF all car and stable men from ten
TO four cents an hour The excuse given for this
action is the failure Of the company to make
any money A statement of the earnings and
expenses OF the car line for year furnished by
Mr. Lowrey shows a net profit Of 81 ,092 81. Mr.
Lowrey says that this statement does not include
the cost of extensions and new equipment. The
company proposes TO build two new cable lines
in this city, and this is urged as
another excuse for the cut in salaries. The
expenses must be reduced, so that the statemenS
of the companys condition will be better one,
and the stock OF the company find read1er
sale. The employees have had trouble with the
company for some tame, and when the above
mentioned order reducing wages was issued they
promptly quit work The motor-men began It,
and by II AS a. m. all trains had stopped. BY
o'clock in tho afternoon not, car IN the Guy
was running Most OF the barns were deserted,
but at some of the larger ones the men stood
around and talked on tho situation. They say
but little, but are evidently determined to allow
no cars manned by Hon-strikers to pass over the
lines Public sympathy is with the men, and the
statement of the com pany that u is losing money
is not believed by the majority Of the people.
The men say that they have been pre- pared for the
strike and are ready for hard fight The
general manager, Colonel Goodrich, has asked for
police protection, and fifty special officers have
be put in the place of each striker. The company
ujlt not attem pt TO run cars before tomorrow.

Peeple Whe Fret.

One of the most striking examples
Of this large class of unfortunate beings
IL the great Carlyle-the man Of noble
heart and great mind, capable of grasp
ing great subjects and giving wise
words Of admonition regarding them,
and yet - difficult TO live with com-
fortably, because he was easily dis
turhed BY trifies and gave free vent to
an oral expression of the ann0yances
he felt. There is . touch of the ridicu-
lous, hut much more that is pathetic, in
the story OF Carlyle's behavior ON his
return home after an absence, during
which his loved Jennie-Mrs. Carlyle
worked with loving industry to make
her husbands homecoming an es-
pecially happy one
The study was made Immediately
neat, the new furniture arranged in
the most pleasing order, and y dainty
touch here and there to make ell home-
like. The task completed, Mrs. Car
lyle awaited in happy expectancy the
return Of the master Of the house.
What did Carlyle do to show his
appreciation OF this loving service SO
willingly rendered? Did no express his
satisfaction in words. or even by a look
Of pleased surprise? Not he. Sur.
veying the room with critical eyes, he
walked to . window, discovered that
The sash ratified, and vented his dis
pleasure in unmistakable language.
This one small flaw blinded him to all
the rest Of the order and pleasant ar.
engagements Of the room.-Ere7sing

A Strange Story About Mr.. stanley.

A writer in "The Weser Zeitung'
places MI. Henry M. Stanley by the
side of Ulysses and Eneas, and implies
that in the wanderings of the modern
American, as in those of the ancient
Greek and Trojan, there was . woman
in the case. Mr.. Stanley's Calypso, or
Dido, was q young English lady whom
he met in his fonr-fourth year, when he
was living in New-Bond street. The
hero who has faced such stupendous
difficulties was too modest or shy TO tell
her of his love, but confided It to her
brother, requesting him to be his media
tor. The English lady refused to take
the initiative; she would neither decline
nor accept the lover who had not cour-
age TO speak for himself" but promised
to think over the problem. While she
was thinking came the call to Stanley to
march Of to Africa for the liberation of
Emin. His old love for Africa revived,
and he left the English Calypso delib'
erating.-PaH Mall Gazette.

A Man Of Sedenfary Habits.

It is probable that President Cleve-
land never crossed the Threshold OF
more than two Washington homes out
side the cabinet circle. In other words,
he has not seen the interior of ten resi-
dences in Washington. He has never
seen congress at work, and l am as
sured that in four years he has not
once entered a department building.
The Treasury, State, Navy, War, and
Attorney General Departments are all
within n stones throw Of the White
House, but Mr.. Cleveland has never
opened their doors. He has never walk
ed upon Pennsylvania avenue as Grant
was in the habit of doing, and surely
he never took a drink across a Wash
ington bar as Buchanan did mor than
once. He rarely goes to the theatre,
not caring much for the plays. Prob
ably there has now and then been an
entire week he has not C put on his
hat and gone out of doors. All he

ssChic', and Slang.

To be chic in conversation is an
attribute much admired in either the
man or the woman Of society. A gem
erons sprinkling Of slang is permitted
10 enliven the small talk of the hour,

welcomed with positive delight. The

Business Second Nature to Him.

Mr.. Rylands, the great Manchester
manufacturer, almost up to his death, at
nearly ninety years, insisted upon con-
Quoting personally the G Of his
business, which he founded nearly
seventy years ago. Every morning he
would be driven 10 his Office, and VITA,
the kindly c~onnivance Of his managers
and head clerks made believe to direct
affairs as he used to do in former wears.
One day when the end was growing
very near, he was driven as usual to hia
Office. When he was helped out Of his
carriage and looked mp ct the building
he turned to ~re-enter the carriage, OK
claiming pettishly: mo, no, I want 70
60 to my own place" He did not know
the palatial building in which his later
fortunes were cared for, and his failing
mind, suddenly turning back for sixty
years, saw the modest building in which
he had started.

Flames from Water.

It seems rather p~aradoxical tospesk Of
water as an excitant of combustion, yet
Mr.. Brereton Baker showed the Lon
don Chemical Society in 1882 that car.
bon burns less freely in dried than in
moist oxygen. Continuing his re-
searches, the same investigator has
found that selenium, tellurium, arsenic,
and anthony burn with equal read
mess in dry and moist oxygen; but that
the combustion of carbon, sulphur,
boron, and both the red and yellow
notifications Of PHOSPHORUS, is greatly
modified by the amount of moisture
present. Some oxidation took place in
all cases, but its extent varied with the
degree Of dryness Of the substances,
and no flame appeared when most Of
the moisture had been excluded.
Yellow phosphorus was obtained Of
such purity that it did not wen glow
in dried oxygen, though the addition Of
water caused rapid combustion ar
kdmsa,p TrdUeier.
