Continental Strikers.

Early in 1888 the Continental CON
gress was discussing financial ques-
tons. Alexander Hamilton proposed
to fund the public debt and issue GER
tificates for officers pay which were
to bear interest, and in this position he
vas supported by Madison. The OPP
poncnts of a strongly centralized gov
eminent insisted that the whole mat
ter should be left to the states, even
the matter of officers pay. On March
10, 1888, an anonymous call appeared
in Washington's camp at Newburg,
on the Hudson, for a meeting of the
general and field officers of the army,
including one officer for each com
pany, to discuss the aspect of affairs.
The call vas accompanied by an ap-
peal, written in violent language by
Capt. Armstrong, son of Gen. Arm
strong. In q general order, issued on
March IL, Washington denounced
this call as irregular and subversive of
discipline, and named a day subse-
quent to that mentioned in the call
for q meeting in which to hear the re-
port of the committee sent to congress.
By personal appeals to each officer he
sought to calm their passions and pre-
vent hasty action. On the 18th the
meeting was held according to the
call, and Gen. Horatio Gates, who
was suspected of being in sympathy
with the authors of the appeal, was
made chairman to prevent his taking
any part in the discussion. A com
mittee was appointed to draw up reso-
lutions, of which Gen. Knox, a close
friend of Washington, was made
chairman. These resolutions were
passed in spite of the opposition of
the authors of the meeting. Gen.
Washington in an address urged the
officers to place implicit confidence in
the wisdom and justice of congress-

Oliphant had work to do for English
shareholders in respect to the tele-
graphic cable between England and
America. Afriend has lately told me
the following anecdote on this sub
ject: One of the chief persons with
whom he had to do in America was
the well known Jay Gould, a financier
of much greater force than his new
adventurer in such unaccustomed
fields, and against whose overwhelm-
ing cleverness his friends warned him.
His account of how he met this dam
ger was exceedingly characteristic.
He went to the remarkable parsonage
in question with hat fine frankness
which is one of the most polished in
struments of diplomacy, being the
plain truth. He said to him Il do
not think that your interests and
those of my clients are opposed
to each other, but if you take
them in that light 1 am not equal to
you in ability; l cannot fight the
question with such a champion as you
are-I must go to the wall" Jay
Gould was man enough to understand
and appreciate, and during the whole
negotiations treated his unusual oppo-
nent with perfect good faith and hon
or.-Blackwood's Magazine.

Frank NJ. Nye, the assistant county
attorney, has long been suspected and
watched by people about the court
house with all tho intentness that de-
tectives shadow a suspected criminal.
In this case, however, the circum-
stances are a little different. Mr.. Nye
is watched on the strength of the wit
and humor hat has made his brother
bill" so famous, in the hope that some
spark of ancestral wit may spontane-
ously be emitted from him also. But
nary n spark. If any numor has
ever proceeded from Frank NJ.
Nye while he is conducting n
prosecution then no one has
heard it. In that respect, there
fore, so far as relationship is concern
cd, he might as well be the brother of
Tom, Dick OF Harry, instead of Bill"
Frank Nye, however, has his popular
qualities, if serious, and he can make
nm effective address to a jury.-St.

Something About Chinese Gastronomy.
Canton is OF about the size Of Paris
or New York, and it is one of the best
places to study Chinese gastronomy.
The restaurants here have birds nest
bought a rat which was salted,
dressed and dried yesterday for
five cents. l doubt not the price was
five times too high, for the rat was the
smallest on the string which was in
the butcher shop. 1t lies before me as
/ write. II measures n foot from nose
to tail, and it looks a little bit like n
piece of dried pork. 1t has been skin
ned even to the tail. Its legs are cut
off, and the liver and heartare pressed
inside of it. II smells like salt meat,
and it looks as though it would make
the center of agood sandwich. / in
tend to send it to the Gridiron or Clio
yer club as n sample of Chinese gas
tronomy.
In this same shop l saw cooked cats,
and / visited yesterday n cat and dog
meat restaurant. Carcasses of small
dogs which looked not unlike clean
sucking pigs hung from hooks about a
low dark room, and these, in most in
stances, had n tuft of hair left on
tho tip of the tail. This hair was
black, for black dogs meat is worth
more than that of a yellow dog, and
black cats flesh costs mere ten cents n
plate. Just below these dogs, and
next to the street, were two clay bowls
filed with burning charcoal, and upon
these vas Slowing the flesh of dogs and
cats. In little cages on the floor were
a number of live cats ready to be killed
and cooked to order, and | saw thisaf-
ternoon n peddler showing a cat to u
woman in one of the narrow streets of
Canton. The woman was examining
the cats teeth in order TO know its
age, and she felt of its body as though
it were a rabbit. There were about n
dozen Cinnamon dining in this dog
and cat restaurant, and a good dinner
costs on an average fifteen cents.
The Chinese fruits are especially
plums, pears and persimmons which
would make your mouth water. Can
ton sends thousands of dollars of
sweetmeats TO America yearly, and
their preserved ginger issought for by
the gastronomes of the world. The Chi
nese themselves are great eaters. Cook
shops for the rich and poor are found
everywhere, and n big Chinese dinner
sometimes has 100 courses. Mr.. Den
by, the American minister at Picking,
when received by the viceroy at Can
ton, was given q dinner of sixty-fve
courses, and he smacks his lips when
he discourses upon the delicacy of
sharks fins and birds nest soup

Did you ever think what a place a
depot in a city like Minneapolis is for
the study of human nature, and what q
world of interesting sights and scenes
are to be had there7If one could become
ubiquitous for an hour or two and
stand a DISTINGUISHED observer at all the
railroad stations and become oblivious
to everything else for the time being,
what would be the impressionl Why,
II you look at the incoming trains as
they stop, you would be tempted to
think that everybody had run away
Minneapolis and brought his wife and
daughter, or somebody else's wife or
daughter, and all we're hurrying with
all their nights and mains to e taway
from the depot before they got arrest
ed. And this impression would not be
lessened by the rush and scuffle be-
tween them and the hackmen and cab
men and draymen and hotel and
boarding house drummers, as the lat
ter grab and nab, and rush and push
and yell and scramble to get baggage
and passengers into their various con-
veyances, and the former lodging and
showing and rushing and Juggling and
pulling at goods and grips and other
luggage; dogs, canary birds and ba-
bies.
But then your attention is drawn
from all these before they are out of
sight by another such q crowd rushing
and hurrying the other way, just as If
everybody was running away from
Minneapolis and going to other parts
unknown, taking with them all the
money, all the portable property, all
the wives, daughters, dogs and-and
babies of themselves and their neigh
bors, and were all doing their very
best to get out of the city before they
were arrested. At the gate the keeper
seems to think SO too, as he gives each
of them a punch as they pass out.
This hurry and %scufle, hustle and rus
tie and hustle, is being repeated every
hour in the day and many hours in the
night. This is too wearying, almost
bewildering to the brain. No doubt a
good many of these crowds, both ways,
contain some runaway thieves, bur
glars, bank defaulters, clippers, ETC.,
for the next thing that attracts the at
tention is the crowds Of ever dreaded,
ever welcome, never appreciated,
never feared and never half respected
ubiquitous newsboys, crying, in every
imaginable key and tone of voice;
