AN EAGLES FIGHT.

An eagle made bold fight on a farm
near Port Jervis, n. Y, recently. 1t
descended and attempted to seize a
lamb when ram in the flock attacked
the the bird, knocking it down. The
eagle rallied, and when the ram started
for it again, head down, the bird fasten-
ed its talons in the wool on the back of
the buck and commenced to beat the
now frightened sheep with its ponder
Gus wings. When it had tired of this
the eagle left the demoralized ram and
pounced upon the lamb. The ram again
returned to the fight, butting the eagle
under its right wing, causing it to drop
its prey. Then the fight between bird
and animal was resumed with renewed
vigor, the latter being assisted this time
by the farmer, who had arrived on the
scene with fence rail. AS soon as op-
portunity offered he swung the rail with
unerring aim and the eagle fell dead, its
neck being broken. The farmer loosen
ed its talons from the wool on the bucks
back and threw it to the ground, when
the ram again resumed he fight and,
after giving one or two more parting
butts, hurried off to join the frightened
flock in corner of the field The lamb
was dead. The eagle measured from
tip to tip of wings eight feet four inches.

BEGINS TO LOOK SERIOUS.
EFFORTS TO COMPROMISE DIFFER
ENcEs HAVE PROVED FUTILE.

The Company Attempt to Run the Cars
with scabs, Under Police Protection
The Car Surrounded and Ditched and
the Driver and Conductor Flee for
Their Lives-CIty Council Adopt a
Resolution Notifying the Company to
Operate the Road.
COLUMBUS, o., June 10.-The strike of
the Consolidated Street Railway COM
pany is beginning to look serious. Yes
terday was the sixth day of the strike.
and as the Consolidated company con-
troll every line in the city Columbus is
totally without street car facilities. All
kinds of business is badly affected, the
larger establishments being compelled to
furnish carriages to convey their custo-
mers to and from their stores. The
company has made several attempts to
run cars under police protection. but
without success. All efforts to compro-
mise the differences have proved futile,
and Saturday the differences between
the company and the men were only
1-2 cents on a days wages. Sunday
the various labor organizations met and
rendered sympathy, means and force, if
necessary, to carry their point. Yester-
day the company, with force of hired
''scabs," made attempts to run the cars
under police protection. The first car
had hardly got started when the popu-
lace,
Men and Women by Thousands
rushed on the street and hundreds of
workingmen surrounded the car and
ditched it, the driver and conductor
fleeing for their lives. The car was run
back to the barn. The second car got as
far as High street half filled with police.
when 5000 people gathered around and
the strikers or their friends seized it,
whirled it around, hit the driver over
the head, frightened off the conductor
and unhitched the horses. No further
attempts were made to move cars. The
whole laboring population of the city
swarmed to the streets and were deter
mined that the cars should not run till
the men got the wages demanded.
Terrible Riot Seemed Imminent,
and Mayor Bruck issued orders that no
more attempts to run cars should be
made until the wage question was set
tied, Public sentiment is almost unan-
imous for the strikers, who receive less
pay than any car men in the country.
The city council last night adopted
resolution instructing the city clerk to
notify the Consolidated Street Car COM
pany to Immediately put its cars in
motion, taking back worthy employees to
operate them at the increased wages
asked or. consent to submit the matter of
wages to board of arbitration. In case
the company does neither, the city So
licitor is authorized to bring suit to oust
the company from its franchises in the
streets

A TRAIN ORDERED STOPPED AT THE
END OF BIG REvOLVERS.

MANDAN, n. D., June 9.-The through
eastbound passenger train, due at Man
dan at midnight, arrived at l o'clock
yesterday morning. Two miles west of
New Salem. and twenty-five miles west
of here, the engineer and fireman were
surprised by two masked men climbing
over the tender and ordering the train
stopped at the end of big revolvers. The
summons was obeyed. The express mes
senger, Argevive, hearing shots fired
forward, and suspecting something, hid
5000 in money from the safe, locked the
small safe, put out the lights and ran
back to New Salem. The mail agent
was in the car, and he Immediately
obeyed orders by turning over the mail
matter. A number of
Registered Letters Were Rihed
and then the robbers turned their atten-
ton to the express car. This they found
was deserted, much to their chagrin, and
mistaking the fireman for the express
messenger they ordered him at the
points of their pistols to open the safe.
He protested that he knew nothing
about it and finally satisfied the robbers.
Then the train backed to New Salem
and finally came on east. The pasSen-
gers We're not touched. A posse of men
with the sheriff, mounted and armed,
left on special train for the scene of
the daring robbery. Only four masked
men We're seen at any one time and
suspicious are rife that only two We're

GRAINS OF GOLD.

You cannot win without sacrifice.
Timidity is a disease of the mind.
He that bows in the dust fills his eyes.
He must stoop low that hath low
door.
Satan o'ercomes none but by willing
ness.
He that always complains is never
pitied.
He that goes a-borrowing goes a-sor-
rowing.
Few people live to-day but are pre-
pairing to do so tomorrow.
BY being contemplate, we set mems
minds to the tune of contempt.
Women have fewer vices than men;
but they have stronger prejudices.
Be ashamed to die until you have
gained some victory for humanity.
You will never find time for anything.
If you want time you must make it.
No pleasure is comparable to stand
ing upon the vantage ground of truth.
Often the man who does not know his
own mind has escaped very disreputa-
bic acquaintance.
Here is the manliness of manhood,
that a man has a reason for what he
does, and has will in doing it.
A mans nature runs either to herbs
OF weeds; therefore let him seasonably
water the one and destroy the other.
A wise man always keeps in mind
that nothing in this world can retain its
freshness, beauty and significance.
Sin is to be overcome not so much by
maintaining a direct opposition to it as
by cultivating the opposite principle.
There is no policy like politeness; and
good manner is the best thing in the
world, either to get good name or sup
ply the want of it.

THE POOR TAXED FARMER" i"
Not So Badly Off as the Free-Traders
Would Have Us Think.

Not So Badly Off as the Free-Traders
Would Have Us Think.
The American farmer was never before
an object of so much solicitude to our
Free-trade friends as now. They find
that they cannot cajole the working1nan,
whose intelligence tells him what he
owes to a Protective tariff, 80 the arrows
of the Erect trader are aimed at the '.poor
taxed farmer" And yet we hear of few
if any converts. The farmer Is not so
ignorant as the tariff smashers think or
as they would have US think. He knows
that all classes of agricultural imple-
ments are cheaper In this country than
any part of the world and better too.
All kinds Of heavy hollow ware, such
as stoves, kettles and the like, are
cheaper here than in Europe. Nails,
builders tools, house furnishing, hard
ware, furniture and wooden ware are
all cheaper here than there This has
been proven time and time again, and
any one who will take the trouble to COM
pare our prices with list from abroad
will have to acknowledge the truth. But
it is said the prices Of farm products are
constantly falling, and the poor farmer"
cannot get even living price for his
corn, wheat and other produce
Admitting that the prices Of agricult-
ural products are low, we can affirm as
an offset that the American farmer pays
less per ton per mile in the way of freight
upon the grain and meat that he sells
and the cloth and plows that he buys
than does the farmer of any other coun-
try. If the price for corn and wheat is
low let him raise something else The
farmer who adapts himself to the .condi-
ton Of affairs is everywhere prosperous.
The farmer, like every one else, who does
not keep abreast of the times is wonder
ing why Protection does not bring him
prosperity.
Our farmers have market at home
practically sufficient to consume all their
products. This market will enlarge as
we diversity our industries, and if we keep
out everything that we can raise at
home our farmers will have no COM
plants to make, for they will have a
ready sale at good prices for all they
grow. The intelligent farmers know
this and with the passage Of the coming
tariff bill, which will more than ever
protect the agricultural interests, will
some an era of prosperity.

THE BELL MOUNTAIN.

The Bell Mountain, or Jabel Nagous,
is situated on the Suez, about four and
half hours journey from Tor. The
name is given to it by the Arabs be-
cause the sands covering its northwest
extremity emit musical sound when
agitated by the wind. The sand is of a
yellow color, and curiously mobile, and,
when disturbed, the note it gives out re-
sembles the base of an organ. The vol
ume of sound of course depends on the
quantity of sand in motion; and it is
said to resemble the rumbiing of distant
thunder on occasions.
