PITTsBURG, July S.-The attention OF Il.
c. Frick having been called to the suRges-
tion that the Governors of Ohio and Penn
sylvania, in conjunction with 1. V. Pow
derly, form q board of arbitration to settle
the Homestead difficulty, he was asked:
Would you consent to submit the matter
to such board of arbitrationp
This is not q case for arbitration" was
the terse reply. and Mr.. Frick declined to
discuss the matter further.
Stephen Madden. secretary of the Anal
gamated Association, said: Il am not IN
favor of arbitration as means of
setting our difficulty with the
Carnegie interests. The Amalgsmated
Association, as an organization, Is on rec
ord as being opposed to arbitration as it Is
generally understood. We believe that we
are better able to settle our own disputes
than Outsiders."

Speaking of the queer things to be seen
ON the streets, it is really astonishing
how instinctively one person initiates an
other. A man with u passion for psy'
chical research has been proving this by
some experiments which are. to say the
least of it, original. Going along about
dusk the other night in advance of a
small party of folk, he suddenly turned
out into the muddy street, as if avoiding
something in front Unquestioningly
every person behind did the same thing
in spite of the miro
1t isn't likely that they felt the full
humorous force of the incident in quite
the way he did, however, when they saw
him face about and walk calmly back in
the beaten path. The sheep went to all

seem worth while if human beings coplP

AntidntDa for snnke Poison.

The effect of snake bite depends partly
on the condition of the snake and partly
on that of the person bitten and the part
attacked. No effectual autidote has yet
been discovered. Ammonia and per.
manganate of potassium will not suffice,
although solution of the latter will
take away the poisonous property Of the
snakes venom If it be mixed thereWith.
Immediate amputation of bitten toe
or finger is the best course, as the delay
of a few seconds may suffice to convey
the poison into the patients circulation.
If from the nature of the part bitten
amputation cannot bo performed, q very
tight ligature applied after cauterizRtion
and sucking the part is the best course,
and the administration Of stimulapts is
generally recommended, Quarterly Re

Occasionally some person knocks at
the door of Jay Gou1d's office in the
Western Union building with a copy Of
"The History Of Delaware County, New
York, by Jay Gould" to sell. An i'm
preston exists in the minds of many
people that Mr.. Gould is desirous of
suppressing this publication as COM
pletely as possible, and that he will pay
almost any price to get possession of the
few stray copies that are left. Resi-
dents Of Delaware county are authority
for the statement that several years ago
an agent of Mr.. Gould's secured that
county for these books and bought near
ly all of them at fancy prices, When
ever a copy of this particular history OF
Delaware county is displayed in that
county at the present day the older resi-,
dents will advise the owner, "Jist you
take thet down ter New York, an Jay
Gouldll give yer thirty or forty dollars
fer it." 1t is certain that nobody in Mr.
Gould's Office ever heard Of his paying
any such price for one of those books
And nobody is able to explain why Mr.
Gould should want to suppress the pub
hcation, unless it is that he thinks ther
is too much sentiment in it for man 0

,he Fails to Establish His Identify and
Loses Twenty Dollars,
The othel afternoon, when the shadows
were growing longer in the streets and
the day was taking On a somber hue,
little group of politicians sat IN the city
hall regaling each other with ye stories
Of We olden time. Among those reeled
off was the following regarding nm ex-
perience Of William Fl. Seward, who was
then governor Of the Empire State. II
seems that while travelling around
through the rural districts and making
sure that his political fences hadtn very
bad breaks in them, he came one even-
ing to the humble abode Of farmer.
1t was too far from the town where
he was stepping to go back that night,
and so he asked permission ostop there.
This was oheerfuIly granted, and after
partaking Of an old fashioned country
supper the old farmer invited his I'M
known guest to take a ride across the
country with him, he having an errand
to do in a neighbering village, With
all the suavfty for which Mr.. Seward
was justly famed, he accepted the inyi-
tation, and as they drove along in the
gathering twilight he entertained the
old farmer with all mannerof campaign
experiences and stories. f
The old tanners native shrewdness
caused him to wonder why the stranger
should show him SO much attention, and
at last he blurted out: a.@F
"Say, be you q book agentF' 43

eh?" al. ga4 NIB
"No, sir; you are wrong again."
"Then you're a sewing machine man."
No, sir" a ag@4
"Well, then, by gosh, you must be a
politician. -.. .s' srB al
Mr.. Seward at once acknowledged tho
soft impeachment, and then informed
the inouisitive old fellow that he was
the governor Of the state Of New York.
This uuieted the old fellow for awhile,
but at last he could hold in no longer, and
he quietly informed Mr.. Seward that he
thought he was liar. Mr. Seward,
however, insisted on the truth OF his
story, and the dispute finally Tesulted in
a wager of twenty dollars. Inc money
was placed in an oldt lantern that was
carried in the wagon to be used IN case
of emergency, and it was agreed thai
the first person they met was to decide
as to the ownership. Of the. money
Should he fail to recognize Mr.. Seward
as governor the former was to win, ant
vice versa.
The test soon came. Driving by thl
shop of a wayside blaCksmith5 the pro
prietor himself stood in the doorway
The farmer stopped his wagon and Mr.
Seward said
my friend, my yeracity has beel
questioned by the gentleman with me

Throwing, rice and wheat at wed
ding is a relic of an old Roman custom,
and has probably been common in Eng.

several authorities forit. Friend refers

upon her with the greeting, Welcome

Rice is used similarly. at weddings in

but where wheat cannot readily become
