The Paris Labor Congress.

PARIS, July 1s.-The Posslbilists met again
to-day and continued the discussion of yes
terday upon the condition of the working
classes in different countries of the civil
lied globe. Tomorrow the subject of in
ternational legislation for the amelioration
of the condition of the wage-wOrkers viii
be taken up. The Marxists devoted the
greater part of to-day's session to the read
ing or reports from the various nations
represented upon the progress made by the
Socialist propaganda within the year. The
TWO factions still meet In separate halls,
and the prospect is that they will continue
TO do so, there appearing To be some insur-
mOuntable obstacles to the much TIA iked-o
union between them. The failure to effect
a fusion causes much bitterness within the
ranks of both the Marxists and the Posi-
bilists.
The international Labor Congress in ses-
sion here to-day passed series of resolr-
lions very sweeping in their scope Among
other things the resolutions demand uni
versal maximum of eight hours for days
labor, one holiday every week, and the un-
conditional suppression of all labor by
children under fourteen years of age.
Coal Heavers Ask Finy Gents an Hour.
SUPERIOR, Wis. July 1s-A al-heavers'
strike was inaugurated yesterday after
noon. The Lehigh coal beavers quietly
walked out and refused to handle coal at
less than 80 cents an hour. The great lock-
out this spring, in which the beavers stood
out for 80 cents and were offered 40 cents
per hour. was lost by the strikers, but they
have watched their opportunity. They saw
that all the surplus labor was employed. and
with a neet of coal vessels at the dock.
victory seemed sure. From the Lehigh the
strikers passed to other docks, and in all
cases induced the men to quit. The strike

Marie Antoinette's Slipper.

In an old French household in this
city there is carefully cherished an
heirloom. 1t is a slipper worn by
fore the French Revolution. 1t was
one of the few precious relics in the
baggage of court lady who fed with
her husband, when the storm broke. to
Louisiana. She left the tiny faded
blue foot covering to her daughter,
with the injunction that it should go
down in the family, and always to the
