day, and were feeling good in anticipation
of a handsome reward that they Thought
would be theirs.
Some time agoa negro named Lorenza
Berry cut his wifes throat in Columbus
and reward of $500 was offered for his
apprehension.
For several days Chief Hatcher and
Capt. McClelland had had under careful
watch a negro that answered closely the
description given of Berry, and last
Wednesday afternoon the supposed
murderer was arrested while at work at
the Dawson Oil Mills.
The officers conducted their man TO
Jail, and the Columbus authorities w ere
wired description of him.
They wired back that if the negro had
distigured nose he was Berry; if not
to release him.
Upon examination the darkey's nose
showed up in good shape and he was
released in few hours after his arrest.

LABOR ORGANIZATION AND CAPITAL.

The interview with Mr.. John Downey, of
the Order of Railway Switchmen, given in
another column, puts the benefits of labor
organization in a light which is not consid-
cred SO often as it might be. Mr.. Downey
dwells upon the work done by his order in
promoting among the men sobriety, careful
discharge of duty and interest in preserving
the properly of the employer. He also states
that the great railway capitalists recognize
the value of their work in this respect, as
we'll as the superior convenience in dealing
with the men as body, instead of having to
settle wage questions with them separately.
There is no doubt that labor orgapiza-
tiOn which promotes sobriety and greater
efficiency and consciousness in work,
among its members, is doing a good work.
Any labor organization that makes those
aims leading feature will vindicate its
usefulness and command ultimate success.
1t is also true that employers have largely
recognized the advantage of dealing
with conservatively managed labor organ
izations for the uniform settlement
of wages. The iron manufacturers of Pitts
burg haye long conceded the value of the
Amalgamated Association for that function,
and many large coal operators have worked
hand-in-hand with the miners unions for
the establishment of uniform mining scales.
Nj. Depew has in his speeches recognized
this point, and we believe that Mr.. Jay
Gould has, as Mr.. Downey says, shown
similar opinion in some OF his acts.
Nevertheless it is necessary to note that
the corporations presided over by both these
gentlemen have found themselves in con-
flicts with labor organizations. to escape
from which they used their whole corporate
power to wipe out the organizations. We
do not allude to this as an Impeachment of
either side in these conflicts. But they are
evidences of the fact that there are still con-
dltious of antagonism between labor and
capital which might be removed, and which
thinking men on both sides will do their
best TO ameliorate.

MEN AND WOMEN OF NOTE.

LAST Saturday was the semi-centenary
of the death of the first President Harrison.
EMPEROR WILLIAM is writing life of
his grandfather, and also book of Norwegian
travels.
SENATOR HIsCoCK is a strong man, a
thorough parliamentarian, fine looking. con-
vincing speaker and true gentleman.
BISHOP RYAN, of Buffalo, who has been
seriously ill at Providence Hospital for some
time, has left Washington for his home very
much improved. 1t is expected that he will be
out and around in good health in few days.
JAMES PAYN is one of the most prolific
novelists of the day. and three or four works
of fiction per annum are usually turned out by
his busy pen. He is father-In-law to the editor
of the London Times. Mr.. Payn is a new ac-
QUESTION to the staff of Punch.
HENRY FIELDING DICKENS, the Re-
corder of Deal, England, and the most capable
of the sons left by the novelIsth has successfully
defended in court Charles Lyddon, the young
medical student charged with poisoning his
step-brother, DR.. w. r. Lyddon.
Miss GABRIELLE GREELEY, the daugh-
ter of Horace Greeley, still lives at her fathers
old home. Chappaqua, although the house he
built there was burned down some time ago.
She is very benevolent. and is much beloved
by the poor of the nelghborhood.
JULIAN HAWTHORNE, the author and
newspaper writer has fad in chicken raising
He owns chicken farm on Long Island, where
he indulges his propensity for roosters and
hens and from which he makes a neat sum
yearly In selling eggs and poultry.
The new Archbishop of York is said to
he an amateur nhoropranher The Bishon of
Ripon is devoted to football. Bishop Ellicott
is renowned for good skating. The Bishop of
Chester, as is well known, has expressed a de-

tions Of ecclesiastical dignity are evidently de-
caying.
The elder two of Emperor Williams
sons show as yet very little of their imperial
fathers cold and domineering disposition. In
their friendliness they much more resemble
their gentle grandfather. the late Emperor
Frederick. They are ready to make comrade

lively and dashing spirit.
THOMAS A. EDISON and 100 of his en-

fusion, but as the lights began burning again
almost immediately the cessation of the light
seems to be looked upon as practical joke.
Miss FRANCES WILLARD's long prac-
tice IN presiding at public meetings has gwen
her an ease of manner in the chair that many
man might envy. She is among the few women
who produce the impression Of being no more
embarrassed when acting as chairman for a
large assembly than she would feel with sin
gle guest in her own drawing room.

in the last campaign, and it was promptly
answered that when a Governor calls upon
a Legislature to do work required by the
Constitution, the Legislature is responsible
for the extravagances it commits. We have
failed to find in the vote OF the people at
the last State election any evidence that
the people condemned the. Governor for the
extravagant folly of the party friends of the
Press.
Perhaps our esteemed cotemporary can
draw from the election of Governor Patti
SON some cogent reasons which should re-
strain him from repeating the acts on the
record of which he was elected the second
time; but it requires an extraordinary pollt-
ical genius to do it.
