BARMAIDS' HARD LOT.

Startling Revelations Before the
Labor Commission.
LONDON, Dec. 4.-Revelations made
before the labor commission anent bar
maids hours of work and the terms on
which they are employed have obliged
the commission TO appoint two wOm-
an SubcOmmisSiOners TO take evil
Gence privately. Witnesses deposed
that many employers made it q
condition of employment of barmaids
that they should encourage immodest
advances, and several cases were re-
ferred to where girls were Obliged to
submit to improper overtures from en-
pl0yers. IN host of Instances the
working hours amounted to over 100
weekly. The whole tendency of the
evidence is against the employing of
barmaids, except under strict legislative
control.

New York Recorder.
Bill Nye is disabled. He walked out

So long as Bill Nye didn't strike on

How suddenly public men sink out of

Nye, for instance.-Chicago Mail.
If Bill Nye should take it into his
head to dramatiZe his lecture expert
ences, as he has his frontier Justice life,
what splendid stage fall his tumble of
fifteen feet at jackson, Miss, would
make. The audience would probably
enjoy it better than the actor who
played Nye.-Duluth Tribune.

HOPE FOR HARRISON

In spite Of the certificates that MI.
BLAINE has become an athlete able to
run in any kind of race, there is a
streak of luminosity in the political
Sky for the HARRISON partiSans here
and there. One of these is the vigor
with which CHATNCEY DEPEW and
other Blainiacs, as reputed. insist
that BEN is really great man, ami his
administration an Illustration of the
claim. He was under a cloud for a
time because he coIld not satiate the
hungry demands for Office. His interior
finish was not realized until he casually
took tour Or two and diffused his
brain matter in an orat0rical way.
DEPEw is no SLOUGH in that line him
self. The discovery Of the brilIiancv
of the Administrations is being
accepted in other quarters in which the
highest inspiration IS likely to percolate.
CLARKsoN, the committee m0gul, who
has been locking in other directions,
now furnishes the HARRISON organs
the opinion that ''the nomination of
HARRISON is inevitable" His delivery
is oracular as if he had communed with
powers in the most secluded recesSes of
the state department. Not only the
great ability OF the strongest admins
tration since LINCOLN, but 'other cir
cumstances" demand this. The inter
ence intended is that BLAINE has
given way to HARRISON and will not be
in the field himself, but will support the
reelection of his chief. Whether this
is quite the true status or not. it is easily
accepted by those whose interests look
in that direction. The effect will be
much the same as if 1t were authorita-
tive unless there is authentic denial.
But accepting the claims of the HAIR
REsoE advocates that BLAINE has de-
cided not 20 run, although his medical

French Families Fight Bitterly
Over the Name.
PARIS, Dee. Am illustration was
given today of the hatred in which a
certain class of Frenchmen hold every
thing in Prussia, not excepting even the
name. Two brothers named Rissman
became involved in a quarrel with
neighbor named Trobilet, and finally
one of the brothers called Trobilet a
PruSsian. The latter was angry before,
but calling him PruSsian threw him
into frenzy. and the result was a ter
rible row. TrObilet'S wife and children
saw that he was getting the worst of the
unequal struggle, and they rushed to
his aid. Knives were drawn OH both
sides, and when the gendarmes stopped
the fight it was found that the two Kiss
man brothers were badly cut Trobi-
let's wife. who was i'll delicate condi-
ton. was seriously injured. A son Of
Trobilet. twelve years old, received a
severe stab wound. All the participants
IN the fight are under arrest. either at
the hospital or the police station.

framed law for the gradual abolition
of slavery, which law was passed Sept.
%. 1871. 1t enacted that children there
after born of slave mothers should be of
free condition. The same act emanci-
pated the slaves that were the property
of the government. Large numbers of
private individuals followed the ex-

over 10000 slaves were manumitted

Marplot Shepard.

Albany Argus.
Col. Elliott F. Shepard's inability to
eonfine his powers within the sphere
wherein their usefulness may be par
tieularly appreciated has caused trouble
on many occasions. His latest departure
is his interference with the manage
ment of the affairs of the Grant Monu-
ment association. His conduct was pri-
marily, if not wholly. the cause for the
retirement of Hon. William Il. Grace
from the board of directors. 1t was
through Mr.. Grace's efforts that New
York was selected as the resting place
for Grants remains and the movement
for suitable monument set OH foot. In
