An English Statesman Does not
Want Children to do Factory
Work Under That Age
BY Cable.

LONDON, June goth, 1871
Despite the statements made by
Is members of the House OF Com
mons during the debate on MIR.
Buxton's proposition not to permit
children under IL years OF age to
labor in factories, it is well known
by persons familiar with the con-
ditions of continental labor that
many nations do permit child labor
to IN extent greater than IS per-
mitted in England.
In France, Hungary, Spain ana
Denmark the law recognizes the
right of parents to put their chill
drcn at work at the age OF lOyears.
Italy even permits children to work
at the tender age of 9. Children
under II are not allowed by law to
labor in Holland, Belgium, Sweden or
Portugal.

LONDON, June 20.-A singular
scene occurred to interrupt a we'd
ding ceremony to-day in a church
in the London suburb of Blockpool.
The couple who were to be mar
ried had taken their places before
the altar and the clergyman was
about to pronounce the words that
should make the twain one when
the Father Of the intended bride
suddenly rushed into the church
and shouted out vigorous objec-
tion to the continuance of the pro-
ceedings.
He based his objection on the
ground that. his daughter was not
of age, being sill under Is years,
and that he had refused his permis-
sion to the marriage.
There was a stormy any fearful
scene, and the father and his would
be son-in-law nearly came to blows.
The scandalized clergyman finally
got the party out of the sa-
cred edifce, very glad to be
rid of them even at the
loss Of his prospective fee. The
lover did not leave however with
out vowing vengeance upon the
stern parent who had defeated his
matrimonial hopes.

REBELLION AND BLOOD.
Terror Reigns Supreme for While
But now all is Tranquil.
lBy Cable.]

PARIS, June 2O.-The Haytian
minister here has received a letter
from the Secretary of Estate of Hay
ii dated Port AuPrince, saying that
on May 25+h President Hippolyte
was attending the religious cere-
monies in the cathedral
when a crowd of desperadoes,
led by an obscure General named
Sully-Guerrier, attacked the prison,
forced open the doors and set the
prisoners free. Guerrier and his
mob then started for the Palace,
hoping to seize and assassinate
Hippolyte and his ministers. The
latter collected the loyal forces and
succeeded in crushing the revo-
luton. Guerrier and many of
his accomplices were arrested. The
latter declares that Hippolyte dis
played great courage during the &C
ton. The letter further says that
Rigaud was not shot until convinc-
ing proof had been obtained that be
was not a French subject. The
country is now quiet.

The Hebrew Benevolent Society

its treasury since the exodus of
Jews from Russia began that it
finds itself compelled to call on all
the Israelites of Baltimore to sub
scribe something in order that the

the expenditures for charity were

BIT AT HER GA NE.
A Snake Charmer in a Circus Almost
Killed Before the Audience.
By The United Press.

BY The United Press.
Chicago, June 2O.-During the
afternoon performance at the side
show with a circus yesterday,
fourteen foot Python attacked Miss
Uno, the snake charmer, and
seriously injured her. The snake was
a new acquisition of bad disposition.
Miss Uno had wound the snake
about her and was about to lift an
other to her arm, when it tightened
its folds and caught her left arm in
its jaws. Three attendants at once
sprung to her assistance, and it re-
quired their united efforts to free
her from the horrible embraces of
the serpent. The jaws of the
reptile had to be priced
open before her arm could
be released. A physician was called
and the wound cauterized, and un-
less blood poisoning sets in the in
jury will not be serious. At the
time of the accident the show was
packed with people and the excite
ment was intense. Four ladies
tainted and had to be taken into
fresh air before they recovered.

STARVATION Imminent
AMONG THE GERMANS
The dutys on Imported
Corn Remains the
same And
THEY CANNOT BUTT
at the price 1t is noW Selling. The
France and German Wheat

crops also u FUlture.
Gable Copyrighted by The United Press J
LONDON, June 2O.-There is no
doubt that the German government
has taken serious step in refusing
to reduce the duties on imported
corn. The harvest in Germany will
cetainly prove deficient this year,
and although the deficiency may
not be very serious, that is not the
sole consideration.
In France the winter wheat crop
will be an almost complete failure,
and prices of wheat have during the
past few weeks been rising every
where. Germany must necessarily
import a very considerable quantity
of grain food, and if to the advanced
prices current in free trade markets
must be added the German import
duty, it is quite certain that the
ood Of the people will be exceed
fngly dear.
The most forcible comment on
the refusal Of the government to
light the duty was the immediate
and very serious rise which oc-
cured in the German wheat mar
kets. The mass of the people in
Germany live upon grain products
mainly, meat being only to scanty
extent within their reach. The
prospects of dear food has of course
political bearing, and it has fur
nished new weapon of which the
social Democrats have not been
slow to avail themselves. 1t is
quite possible indeed, that there
may be seen during the next few
months unless the government should
change its mind something like the
trouble and agitation which led tc
the abolition of the corn laws in
England. No doubt the present
circumstances are very different
from those which were experienced
in England in 1916.
Germany will be abundantly sup
piled with wheat from the United
State from Austria-Hungary, anc
from India, but if the duties art
maintained the prices will be very
high and except where wages have
been recently advanced as in th'
coal mining districts, there will b'
widespread and, in some cases, yer.
severe suffering.

MORE WATER.

The Artesian Well at the Menger is
Splendid Success.
The artesian we'll question is q
settled fact now, and nearly every
day comes fresh proof Of the fact that
plerty of water can be had for the
trouble of boring.
The Menger hotel well, on the cor.
ner OF Crockett and Bowie streets, is
the latest. A splendid flow of water
waa struck this morning at 10 o'clock
AT that hour the we'll mad reached a
depth of 945 feet and the drill yielded
to the pressure and was withdrawn.
A stream Of pure, sweet, soft water
tollo we'd and dubbed oyer the top OF
the casing and soon flooded the ada
cent ground and flushed the cutters.
The water has slight sulphur i'm
pregnation, which does not iniure the
taste at all.
1t was soon found that the sewer
which connects with Alamo plaza
sewer was choked apd wOrkmen had
to get to work to clean the big drain
in order to carry off the water. When
this Is remedied work will be resumed
and the we'll will be bored deeper in
order to get q stronger flow.

He Was Lost.

A little white boy baby, about three
and half years old, was brought to
the police headquarters this morning
by an old Mexican woman named
Rlcharda Coronel, who states that she
found it wandering by her house, at
the corner of San Fernando and FriO
streets. She noticed a frightened
look in the child's eyes and called il
to her. 1t seemed to have been OUT
all night and had high fever when
brought to The police station and was
very sleepy, as it could not keep it,
eyes open. The old lady took 1t up
to her house and warmed and fed il
then reported it to a police officer
who told her to take it to the head
quarters, which she did, carrying 1t
in her arms all the way. She also
bought the little thing some cakes
at bakery. She will take care
of it today aud ifno one calls tor 1t, II
will be sent to the Orphan Asylum.
The child has white hair, fair com.
plexion and blue eyes, Is between
three and four years old and appears
to be of German or Irish pareptage.
1t is dressed in a white loose dress
with no underwear, shoes or stock
ings and when found had no hat on.
1t has a scar or skinned place on the
crown of its head. 1t seems as though
the police would have been notified
before, as the child has probably been
away from home since yesterday az
