Lady Dixie on woman's Trades Unions

Lady Ashton Dixie, who made a very
favorable impression upon Americans
when she visited this country two or three
year ago, continues to devote her energies
toward the Improvement of the working
classes of England. She read a paper be-
fore the ladies trades union congress at
Liverpool recently on the question will
Women Combine?' in the course of which
she said; wv omen workers have long
been the weakness of mems unions.
When zen have teen driven to the extrem-
ity of the strike and had it in their power
to withdraw every worker of their own sex,
there was still left in the field against them
"A certain number of young women and
girls with sufficient technical and practi-
cal knowledge to take the vacant places, to
help the employers from THEN dilemma of
being left by their male employees and
thus nulify the effects of the strike. This
is clearly wrong and must be remedied The
only way to do this is for the women to
JOIN with the men in their trades unions
or form unions of their own. Perhaps for
many reasons this latter would be prefer
able, although possibly, if working togeth.
er, they might be inspired with ambition
and an exchange of ideas which would ac-
eompish great things. believe women
in this country and in America can druble
their wages if they will combine. y

''HE is mere boy is the comment
which the wire brings concerning the
telegraph operator whose failure to for
ward an order resulted in the wrecking of
two trains and the death of eight men on
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad near Zanes-

the result of his neglect must be, telegraph

TAlNiAGE AWED.

Rev Dewitt Talmage preached in
Brooklyn last Sabbath, on the theme,
"My first day in the Holy Land The
sermon is not up to the full standard of
the distinguished minister. The nights
sail from Greece, the landing at Joppa
in the morning and the impressions Of
that first day in the Holy Land over-mas-
tered him. Much in his words is thrilling
and touching; here and there sentence is
rounded with words that awaken many a
thought from the burial places of memory,
but the great preacher made mistake in
trying so soon to speak of what he saw
with his natural eyes, before the confusion
which filed with conflicting colors his
mental vision has passed away To the
matter of fact man the Mediterranean is
but giant arm of old ocean with treach-
srous winds blowing across the treacher-
GUS waves, and the shore beyond is but
half worn-out land which lies beside the
sea even as does hgit-burned log remain
above The ashes of campfire. But as
Talmage listened to the throb of the ships
engines and felt from beneath the keel
of the hugo ship the beating of the pulses
OF the mighty sea- we know that out un'
der the stars in thought he saw the boats
of Xer1es, the fleets of Egypt, of Tyre, of
Carriage and Rome and the wash of the
sea against the beam of his ship struck

strokes of the oars of some huge trlreme.

at different periods, there has been enacted
scenes which in thought, exhaust every
conception of grandeur, of courage, of
pathos, Of devotion. and self-sacriRce, and
these cast their spell upon the imprisoned
Talmage, and hence while in this sermon
on his first day in the Holy Land, he is not
equal to expectation, and we fancy that

THERE is prospect OF more trouble be-
tween San Salvador and Guatemala. As
a condition of peace it was agreed that
all war prisoners should be exchanged.
President Ezeta politely requests General
Barillas to fulfill that condition, and
Barillas is in quandary because all the
Salvadoreans were shot when they were
captured The knowledge of this fact
makes no difference to Ezeta, who firmly
and with all courteous extension of dis
tinguished consideration insists upon hav-
ing his men back again. This IS a case
where it would be difficult to palm off
substitutes for the dead men, and we
really do not zee what Barilas can do if
