r.sE CENTRAL STRIFE.

There is not railroad il the coun-
try less troubled with strikes than mas
been The New York Central, and 1t l.
great surprise to everyone that they
should be at this time.
The policy of the road toward It's
employees has been just aud right and
Great influence has been exercised
over other roads by this great line.
The cause OF the strike appears to
have been very insignificant matter
The road had had some trouble with
its Gremen, and the later scut repre-
sentative of The Knights OF Labor u
adjust the trouble. The railroad officials
refused to do this. They were per-
fectly willing to see the men Tor the
purpose of adjusting the disagreement,
hut would not see the outsider, ana
then the frmen took upon themselves
the grave responsibility of paralyzing
great railroad.
This too when they had always been
treated with the utmost friendliness by
these same officials. 1t seems to us
that in ths light OF the past they could
not have done less that yielded the
trlhing point, If point it was, and sout
Themselves to state their grievances.
In New York State there is a BOARD
of Arbitration. 1t was created for the

AFFAIRS OF AMERICAN WOMEN.

A MAN who was carting away ashes
from Mrs. w. G. Whitney's residence al
Newport found in the rubbish an envel.
ope containing check for $6,375 paya-
BILE to Mrs. Whitney. He promptly re-
turned it and was handsomely rewarded.
EVERY window in Mrs. George w.
Childs' Long Branch cottage is filled
with bright scarlet box thickly plant
ed with palms, ferns, hanging vines,
and Towering plants. The contrast OF
the scarlet and green is most striking
and very beautiful.
Mrs. GARFIELD Is rich, besides having
5000 year as the widow of a Presi-
dent. Her daughter, Mrs. Stanley
Brown, has purchased fine lot in
Washington suburb upon which she
will build a house, where. 1t is believed,
Mrs. Garfield will take up her residence
with her.
Miss RLouNr, daughter Of Henry F.
Blount, received as birthday favor a
very curious and valuable Japanese
cabinet from celebrated English
savant. In the compartments are bits
of mummy cloth, q scarab, the pocket
compass carried by Admiral Nelson ana
number OF antique coins.
Mrs. PORTER, wife Of DR.. William
Porter of St Louis, Mo-, wears an opal
that has history. 1t was given to the
doctor by one of his patients, who was a
Polish exile living In the United States.

AN INTOXICATED RAVEN.
Antics of Bird That Was Too Fond OF
the Flowing Bowl.


Antics of Bird That Was Too Fond OF
the Flowing Bowl.
No sooner could he toddle after leav-
ing the nest than he began to attempt
various short excursions about the
premises, accommodating the ground,
and endeavoriRg to repeat his name
Jerry" which he was seiuously
taught at feeding hours. No need, how
ever, to dwell upon his pupilage, neither
will spare permit to produce all the
anecdotes which his life supplied in
such abundance. Suffice it to say, at
gon of intelligence among birds. His
palate was no wise dainty, tallow
candle being as much relished as slice
of butter, the only preference, for they
were both stolen, being given to that
which was most accessible. And in
order to gain access to any kind of
food upon which he set his affections,
his heavy beak was driven through a
window, 50 enabling him to carry off an
apple, a cake or candle. There was
in him a strange tasto for stimulants,
but how acquired l can not satisfactorily
explain-certainly not hereditary.
Cowslip wine was his favorite bever-
age; and he might have imbibed the
habit of tippling by slipping the drops
left in a wine glass, to which he had
often access, and which was OCCASION
ally mauled with his sledge hammer of
beak, after he had drained the dregs.
Upon trial, | found him willing and
able to drink off glass of cowslip wine
ut draught- This had its due OBJECT
He was excited, tapped about the yard.
crying out loudly: Jerry! What, Jerry!
What, Jerry! Ah, Jerry! Ah, rogue"
Such an exhibition encouraged me to
give him little more. To wine-glass
full OF his fayorite drink was added a
large tablespoonful of rum. AS usual,
he drank 1t off without hesitation and
walked away. At first was afraid that
the stimulant mad done him harm;
his manner was so quiet and his
voice so subdued, so little appearance,
indeed, was there of excitement But
chfJ Whfb dWHffC, aHo hHdt O tH@HBO.
He commenced in moment most
furious raid upon tho poultry. He
leaped upon the backs Of ducks and
hammered their heads with his beak
most numerically; then pursued the
hens, catching them by their tail-feath-
ers, which were twitched out; and holding
old dchanticleerb by his fine arched plumes,
to his great CONSERVATION, till he made
him scream as il he were about to be
killed. The last act of this drama was,
that he most determinedly set upon a
drake-perhapsi in spiteful remembrance
of some past grievance-as if resolved
to destroy poor quack. But his vindic-
tive prowess was overcome by the pow
or OF stimulants within. In the midst
of the fray, Jerry" slipped, and fell
over helpless on his back into chan
nal. He was dead drunk / gathered
him up, slowed him away in his usual
roosting place, where he slept for sew
eral hours, and then again appeared on
the scene of action, quiet, but none the
worse for his spree. e.-Spectator.
