A GREAT many Of the farmers
are as thoroughly disgusted with

Charities Of tho Heir Prosumtivo to the
Austrian Throne.
It is, perhaps, not generally known
that the Crown Prince of Austria is one
of the greatest philanthropists OF the
| age. During the life Of the late Crown
Prince Rudolf he was a pers< mage OF
very little Importance even in fss own
country. His immense wealth, how
ever, gave him certain social pres
tige, whilst his refined taste and general
culture, rendered him an authority
upon literature and art.
AS time passed he began to realize
that he could better organize his work
in the capital than elsewhere. He there
fore established himself in Vienna,
where he soon began to be regarded as
general benefactor. He at once took
the lead in every movement for improv.
ing the condition of the working classes.
His energy was turned chiefly in the
direction of establishing technical
schools and hospitals. He also contrib
uted largely to all existing charities.
Perhaps the unhappiness of his life
has had much to do with the softening

his fair share of sorrow. When in 1858
he was appointed Viceroy of Tyrol, and
brought with him his bride, Saxon
Princess. the Tyrolese population united
in giving them welcome such. as no
sovereign had received there for centu-
ries.
Within year this young bride-a
girl of seventeen summers-died sud-
denly. In the morning the young Arch
duchess was seemingly in perfect health;
before nightfall she had passed away.
So passionately attached to his young
wife was he that whom she died fears
were entertained lest his intense grief
should affect his reason.
Sorrow has undoubtedly. loft its mark
upon the man. He is now ffty-seven
years of age, but looks much older. ow-

A celebrated European nobleman
saws: ,"The Americans have the best
government, because they are scarcely
aware that they have any government
at all" The celebrated fellow had a
level head and had doubtless travelled
in Florida where the government cannot
issue a legal process, and Mississippi,
where the constitution. makers abrogate
the contract by which the state was re-
admitted to the Union, or in the South
generally where the provisions of the
constitution of the United States re-
nulii6ed. 1t is grand and glorious
thing for frauds, ruffians and murderers
when "they are scarcely aware that they
lave any government at ALL" Honest
men, however. prefer to have little
more government.

A CIRCUIT OF AMERICA,

TolegrAnh OneratOr.

The Striking Tale of q Western Union
Telegraph Operator.
The going down of the Western Union
wires last night drove one of the uerv-
Gus gentlemen who taps an instrument
in that office into reminiscent mood.
This wire going down tonight,
boys" he said. ''reminds NE of an ex-
perience that I had in Portland one
night three years agolast winter which
is, perhaps, the rarest ever had in my
twenty years at the instrument. It was
that of working on probably the largest
circuit ever operated at one time in the
United States. The weather was stormy,
and early in the evening the wires on
the Southern Pacific went down Just
east of Deming, N. M. ...s
THAT was already bad enough, but
the situation grew alarming, when at
nine o'clock Omaha reported: All COM
munication with the East shut off. ,
Then l knew we were in for it, for
not line Of the night Associated
Press was in, and we had only the
wires on the Northern Pacific to work
on. Time was limited and we bad to
get the report through to every town in
the West This was how it was worked:
Chicago conn 7cted with St. Paul, and
St. Paul with Helena. From the latter
place connection was made with Butte,
Ogden, Omaha and Cheyenne, and from
Ogden to Deming way to the south.
From Helena connection was made with
Portland; from that point with Seattle,
Tacoma and New Westminster to the
north, and San Francisco, Sacramento
and Los Angeles to the south. One
man rushed that report out of Chicago
and we all took it from him. It was
repeated at relays automatically. I
don't know how far that business tray
eled in miles, but know it was flashed
from the extreme north of the United
States to the extreme south, and from
the far east to the shores of the Pacific,
besides chasing off at cat-a-corners al
a dozen different points. Seattle Tele

Matrimonial Statistics.

In 1883 thirteen per cent of all the
men married in Pennsylvania married
women older than themselves. Eighty
per cent. married them younger than
themselves, and the remaining seven
per cent. took wives their own ages.
The average age of the mon was
twenty-seven years, and of the women
twenty-three years. More mon are mar
ried at twenty-three, and more women
at twenty-one. This seems the favorite
time. A woman of ffty-nine married a
man of thirty-one and girl Of twenty
three took an old man of seventy-four.
The youngest couple who ventured into
matrimony was boy OF seventeen and
a girl of fifteen. One man Of f1fty-four
married a girl Of eighteen. HIS age
was just three times hers; and man Of
forty-eight took girl Of seventeen.
Where the men are older the difference
in ages varies, but where the women arc
older, it rarely exceeds five years. Two
boys Of sixteen were married, and two
graybeards OF eighty tried the same
thing, probably not for the first time.
Of Il, 726 women married, whose ages
were given, 4, O65, or 27.5 per cent, were
less than twenty years old. IN. Y.

Il have been and still am one of the

success, because I think it a less evil
than Negro domination" q
The above is the description of him
self given by q prominent Democratic
lawyer "down South" in a communica-
ton sent to an organ of his party. The
'eyerything'' be alludes to was the use
of the double-siotted ballot boxes, the
stealing of the poll-books, and the
numerous murders of which his party
was guilty. What must be the moral
status of a community in which prom
inent leader can thus publicly avow
himself destitute of decercy, conscience

STRUCK AT THE DINNER HOUR

STRUCK AT THE DINNER HOUR.
Walters in Clark Street Restaurant Leave
Customers Decidedly in the Lurch.
About fifty people sat down in Brock
way & McKey's restaurant. on Clark
street, Monday for their customary miJ-
day meal. Their orders were taken by
the busting walters, but they were not
filed right away. Suddenly at a given
signal the forty walters doff.d their
aprons and white jackets and quit work
in body. The people who had been
patiently waiting for their orders grum-
bled audibly, but the shouts Of the re-
treating men drowned all other sounds.
When the last of them had left the res.
taurant an ominous silence reigned.
Some of the customers departed for less
exciting scenes. The astonished and
disguised proprietors brought out con-
tingent Of dish washers and. kitchen
girls, and the task of supplying the Gus
toners who remained was accomplished
at a slow rate. None of the cooks had
left their posts so the serving of the
meals was about the principal difficulty.
There had been some trouble among the
walters in the summer and the wages
had then been raised from $3.50 to SO a
week. But the increase in the price of
articles of food disturbed the proprietors
and they instructed the head waiter a
few weeks ago to sound the men as to
the dropping of their wages to the old
standard. In some way the walters
learned that their wages would be cut
Monday. They met Sunday night and
decided to strike in the busiest part of
the next day, and carried their project
into effect. It was movement entirely
unconnected with the Culinary Alliance.
The men bad determined to do this on
their own account, as the intended drop
in their wages was more than they
could bear. Mr.. Brockway said yester-
day that the men had been altogether
too hasty., He brought the wages sche-
dule to show that it was not the intep-'
ton to drop the wages Monday. The
$9'scale was yet in existance, and would
be fol. some time. Some of the strikers
he said had returned to the restaurant
asking to be taken back, and the Alliance
had pleaded with the proprietors, as
the strike had been founded on mis-
take. Is is expected that most of the
men will return to work.
