Painful Incidents in the Scotch RaiI~
way War.
GLASGOW, Jan. 5.--Though the railway
strike Is practically ended, to-day may be-
said to be the most exciting day in the
history Of the strike. Seventy policemen.
backed by a squadron of hussars, are evict-
ing the strikers from the houses
belonging to the railway COM
employees Of the railroad. No actual vio-
lence has been reported, but many distress
ing scenes have been witnessed. Much
suffering seems in store for the families Of
the Unfortunate strikers, who now, more
than ever before, have the sympathy of the
public with them.
A SERIOUS DISTURBANCE.
A serious disturbance occurred at Mother
well to-day. Motherwell is the railway
junction thirteen miles south of here, and
there are extensive iron works at the coal
mines in the place. A disorderly crowd,
composed of strikers and their sympathizers,
hostile to the authorities, had gathered,
and when ordered by the police to disperse
refused to do SO and began
general stone throwing. The sheriff
then read the riot act and squad Of police
and military charged upon the crowd and
cleared the street. The rioters. however,
their number had received wounds from
policemens clubs, and the sight of these in-
juries greatly incensed them.
THE STATION ATTACKED.
They quickly gathered again and attacked
the railway station, taking possession Of the
building and wrecking the signal boxes.
Trains were compelled to run through the
station without stopping because OF a fusil<
lade Of stones which the mob showered on
them. Eventually the military fred
blank cartridges at the crowd and
succeeded Ia dislodging them from,
the station. A detachment OF
police, which had been teIephoned for to-
Glasgow, was ieceived on its arrival with
groans and Misses, but the rioters soon en-
tirely dispersed in face Of the superior
force.
A PRovosT's DECIDING VOTE.
It was only through the lord provost's
casting a vote that any of the Glasgow
police were permitted 10 90 to Mother well,
half OF the Glasgow magistracy desiring to
throw all the responsibility of quelling the
disturbance at Motherwell on the military.
ALI the miners in the MotherwelI district
have suspended work. They are largely
responsible for the riots which occurred i'm
Motherwell to-day. Intense excitement
prevails in the place, and 1t Is estimated
that there are $1,000 persons In the crowd

 THE CAPTAINS DREAM.

He looked somewhat crazed, the captain With his singular rapt face;s And his eyes had 8 strange 1uster, Which was the result of Grace. He was very safe for glory
 But he didn't seem to care. Said he wouldn't be contented If the whole world wasn't there. For his watchword was salvation, And he seemed to find spark Of soul in every sinner
 Though they strove to keep it dark. Till one day, deaths hand upon him, His fierce ardor seemed to break Laid him low in the poor attic
 He had lived in for our sake. Came night when we stood watching Two or three about him there Suddenly he bid us bear him Just to breathe the cool night air. So we took the dying captain
 To the window, moving slow; For we feared his heart would fail him At the evil sight below. For twas drawing on to midnight, The New Gut was at it's worst,. Just maze of drunken clamor, God forsalzen and accursed. And the yellow lamps were faring High, through that strange market place But there fell another luster
 On the captains wasted face. Ay, and from the garret window, As he looked into the town, He beheld another city,
 Where the stream of life ran down. And he nurmured, looking downward, Tn fine linen, clean and white, Multitudes which none can number, And the Lord God is their light" Andrew Lang in Longman's Magazine

GRATITUDE OF THE RA1TiEsNAKE.

Did you ever hear of the remarkable presence of mind displayed by McJunkin's tame rattlesnake?" asked the snake edi- | tor.
 "No," replied the horse editor. "McJunkin was out one day, and he came across a rattlesnake on which rock had fallen accidentally in such a way that | the reptile could not get away. Being g humane sort of chap he lifted the rock and released the snake, which expressed it's gratitude in few joyful rattles and then wriggled away" 1 "Is there where the presence of mind came in ?"
 "No; am coming to that. A year or so after McJunkin was hunting in the same locality, and was startled by hearing the peculiar noise of the rattlesnake. Turn ing, he found one of the reptiles following him, and recognized the one he had been kind to the year before. The snake seem- ed very glad to see hlm, and followed at his heels like dog. McJunkin was struck by this remarkable case of gratitude in a creature supposed to be utterly devoid of that quality, and he took the snake home with hm. After extracting it's fangs the snake was permitted the freedom of the house.
 | ''One night McJ Junkin heard a noise in l the room below, where his safe was stand ing. Going down to see what the trouble was he found burglars at work, but they promptly gagged him.
 "Mrs. McJunkin followed her husband down stairs and rushed to the window to give the alarm. She had opened it about four inches when she, too, was seized and gagged by the burglars.
 tAbout this time the snake, which had been asleep under the safe, crawled out. It saw at glance that the man who saved it's life was in dire distress. Wriggling rapidly toward the open window it climbed chair, thrust it's tail out into the street and made such loud rattle that the po- lice arrived before the burglars could get away and both of them were captured Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph.
