BOY SINGERS ON A STRIKE.
A Monthly Salary Of Ninety Cents De-
manded for Their Services.

About twenty boy choristers of the Avenue
A. Mission OF ST. Georges Protestant Eplsco-
pal Church, New York, are on a strike. Tho
young singers demand 90 cents month salary
for their services. Up to the present time they
have given their services voluntarily, as they
were all members of little singing society
called the Golden Chord, which DIR. Rainsford
organized several years ago.
The boys at last got tired singing for moth
ing, and as they saw the boys in the other
church choirs were paid, they determined to
make kick. They had been promised a sup
per, with cake and ice cream. in Memorial
Hall Monday evening. but this was no induce
ment for them. What they wanted was tho
money. and consequently they refused to sing
Sunday night. Since then the church author
titles have not been able to patch up any agree
ment with the boys, and the latter declare
that II the money is not forthcoming at the
next rehearsal night there will be no vested
choir on hand at tho mission next Sunday.

DIR. DEPEW AS A HEALER.
Uncongeniai Republican Spirits Brought
Together at BANQUET.

Chauncey NJ. Depew, accompanied by Presi-
dent Wood of the New York state fair, arrived
at Syracuse Monday afternoon. He was well
coined by officials of the state fair, whose
guest he is, and escorted to the Leland Hotel.
In the evening DR.. Depew was rendered a ban
auet at the residence Of Col. A. C.. Chase.
From glance at the invited guests it would
seem that the occasion OF the visit OF DIR. De-
pew to deliver an address at the state fair to-
day had been neatly turned by the republicans
into n veritabie grand old party love feast for
the healing of several local political wounds.
Among notable republicans present were Con.
gresham j. ]. Belden, Senator Francis ]. Hen
bricks, Frank n. Hiscock, nephew and law
partner Of the Senator; Assemblyman Howard
G. White and Carroll E. Smith. editor of the
Syracuse Joarndl-the organ Of the Hiscock
faction. Politicians sat around the board who
have not spoken to each other i'll year. SEEM
ingy blind to all animostics DIR. Depew APP
peared at his best. lie told innumerable funny
stories and chatted about his trip abroad.
The Chicago Council Wakes Up.
The Monday nights session OF the Chicago
city council was unusually interesting. BE-
sides passing the ordinance permitting the use
Of the lake front for worlds fair purposes q
number Of important resolutions were passed
One Of them instructed the corporation
counsel 10 draft an ordinance pro-
viding for the erection of plants by
the city for the purpose Of furnish
ing gas for light and fuel purposes and cleo
tricity for Illuminating and power at substanti-
ally cost prices. Another instructed the
corporation counsel to take action against the
North Chicago Street Railway Company,
through the attorney generals Office Of the
state, unless it shall within ten days comply
with the order OF the city to cease charg-
ing two fares for passengers who ride
on its lines to points beyond the old city limits
An ordinance was introduced granting fran
chise to new telephone company which pro-
poses to furnish telephones at reduced rates.
An order was issued to the commissioner of
public works directing him not to issue any
permit for the laying Of pipes for the bringing
of natural gas into the city until the council
shall have acted on tho matter

A Good Word tor Senate. Quay.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer
1t is not likely that Senator Quay's eulogy Of
Mr.. Randall will come in the nature of n
revelation to those who have not attributed to
the Senator the orators gift. We believe that
even his most bitter opponent, Mr.. Wharton
Barker. privately attributes to Senator QUAY a
knowledge of finance rare among public men,
and that Mr.. Pattison's fellow owner of the
Record. Mr.. Singerly. privately comedies the
reliability and integrity of the character of the
junior Senator from this state. 1t has not hcen
unknown to men OF letters that Senator Ouay
had an acquaintance with the best books OF
what the school catalogues used to describe as
ancient and modern literature" unusual and
rare except among men of the Lowell and
Matthew Arnold type. To book collectors his
library has long been known rs one of the
richest private libraries in the state His moral
and physical courage npon the field of battle
long ago received recognition with n special
government medal. And it has been well
known that the cartoons of him which have
been drawn by his bitterest political foes are
totally dissimilar to the portrait drawn by
those who have been brought into close con-
tact with him In the earthly hours OF trial and
days OF judgment

It has been computed that between
81. 900, 900 and 81 600. 600 babies are born
in the world each year. The rate of pro-
duction Is, therefore, about 10 per min
ute, or rather more than one for
every beat of the clock. With the la
minute calculation every newspaper
reader is familiar, but 1t is not every one
who stops to calculate what this means
when it comes to a years supply. It
viii, therefore, probably startle good
many persons to find on the authority of
well known hospital writer that could
the infants of year be ranged in line in
cradles the cradles would be overfiowing
and at the same time extend around the
globe. We have the ingenious conclu-
sion also that, supposing the little ones
grew up and the sexes be equally di-
vided. we would have an army 100 times
larger than that of Great Britain and
ife for each soldier besides.
The same writer looks at the matter i'm
still more picturesque light. He inn
agines the babies being carried past
given point in their mothers arms, one
by one, and the procession being kept up
night and day until the last conner in the
twelfth month had passed by. A snffi-
ciently liberal rate is allowed, but even
IN going past at the rate of 20 minute
the reviewer at his post would only have
seen the sixth part of this infantile host
after they had been passing him at the
rate of 200 an hour during the entire
year. In other words, the babe that had
-. H.. sn.1 4..or.
would be able to walk when but mere
fraction of its comrades had reached the
reviewers post, and when the years sup
ply of babies was drawing to close
there would be rear guard, not of in.
fants, but of romping 6-year-old boys
and girls.

They Are Now the Lowest Species Of

Seated Ia the Richelieu restaurant last
evening was bronzed young man with

Not long ago he was sitting on . sand
mound eating snakes and lizards, while
a few yards from him dnsky men were
partakipg of feast Of human bodies,
the heads of the victims lying about the
camp in horrible confusion. The guest
was Carl Lumholtz, member Of the
Royal Academy Of Sciences, Christiania,
Norway, one Of the first white men who
ever lived among the Australian natives.
In general talk about the expedition
undertaken by him for the University of
Christiania he said:
eat the present time the Australian
natives are the lowest known species Of
humanity. They have Ii or no rea-
sonlng faculties, and their only idea Of q
higher power is gained through fear.
They are chocolate colored, wear no
clothing, and their weapons are crudely
made from wood. ! was possessed by

with them. For several months the
natives were generous and peaceful rela-
tions existed between as. / will never
forget the first time they dragged in
some captives from rival tribe and cut
off their heads and ate the bodies.
@The natives have no religious scruples.
They like human flesh better than any
thing else. Men, women, and children
partake OF the food with great relish.
They seldom eat white man or one of
their own tribe. The palms of the hands
and the thighs are considered the most
delicate portions. The heads are east
away-thrown about the camp in every
direction. Leeches are the only things

plenty of time to learn their manners
and customs ] might have cultivated q
taste for rival savages, too, but IL was
bad enough to have to subsist on snakes,

Project to Draw . supply Through Pipe
1900 Feet High.
Prometheus, according to the story Of
Greek mythology, stole fire from heaven
and brought it down to earth. 1t APP
pears, says the Newcastle Chronicle, that
the performance of a somewhat analo-
gous service is gravely contemplated by
the promoters of the Watkin tower, not
fire, but pure air, being the useful COM
modify which it is intended to convey
from the lofty height to the lower level
for the benefit of mankind. The tower
is to be not less than ] 200 feet-consid-
erably higher than its prototype in Paris.
At this atmospheric point air, even in
London, is declared to be absolutely pure;
and it is proposed that by means of ma
chinery specially devised for the purpose
q supply Of fresh air shall be drawn TO
the street level and thence distributed to
houses and public buildings, as water and
gas now are. The project, to the nom
scientific mind at least, may look rather
shadowy, albeit the object aimed at is so
excellent and worthy that it Is TO be
hoped that It may not be destined to re.
main in nubibus.

when Do Babies I8ecome Ints


The Listner may mention the case Of
a fond mother of his acquaintance who
has a remarkable baby who, the mother
insists, says Mammals little grill" 80
distinctly that anybody in the world
could make it out. And this is the way,
exactly, that the baby pronounces it;
Hubble, hubble, lubblel"
This is not nearly such plain English
as friend of the Listner's, now man,
and an honest and able one, who, when
he was years old, mystifed the mem-
bers Of his family by calling out In the
imperative mood:
@Bixit, baxit, cloxitl"
All gathered around and tried hard to
make out what the youngster meant.
but the most definite statement that they
could get out of him was Bixit, baxit,
cloxit. At last, by dint of good deal
of pantomine, the child got them into
the pantry, and indicated particular
place in it, and then his remark trans
lated itself to them. What he meant to
say was, i want biscuit, in the basket,
