A STEP IN ADVANCE.

The Labor question" of the future
will start from point little further
advanced than any common ground
hitherto held. 1t starts from these
propositions:
Every man has right to labor.
Every man has a right to sucl,
wages as he can get for his labor.
No man has right to coerce an
other to labor.
No man has a right to coerce an
other to desist from labor.
No man has a right, when he re-
fuses employment, to destroy the
means of the employment he has re-
Jected or to prevent another taking
such employment.
These propositions are fundament-
al. Whoever violates the principles
involved in them does that which
leads to riot, destruction of property
and loss of life, and takes the full re-
sponsibility for such Consequences

A BANDITS COURTESY.

Cadinal Theodoli. the Intendent
OF st. Peters, at Rome, who just
died, led for the most part, a life of
clerical tranquility; but he was fond
of narrating one thrilling adventure.
1t was in 1874. Monsiguor Theoldi
was spending quiet holiday at the
Abbey OF Trivulsi near Frosinone.
While reposing under a chestnut
tree in a neighboring wood one after
noon, he was captured by bandits
and carried off to the mountain-top.
His servant, who came in search of
him, shared like fate In the morn
ing the chief approached the bishop
respectfully, and with many apollo
gies for the necessity which he was
under, informed him that they re-
CURED $4,000, which his servant
could bring back, and then he would
be set at liberty.
There was no help for it. The SER
want was sent and returned. The
captive was freed, and the brigands
implored his pardon, saying misery
had driven them to their mode of life,
and protesting that they were good
Catholics. The heart of the bishop
was softened. He gave them his
blessing.
The chief seized his hand and kissed
it fervently, but in doing SO he con-
trived to obtain the pastoral ring.
In justice, though, it should be, said
that about year later, as the bish-
op was one day crossing the bridge
of ST. Angelo from St. Peters an
individual unknown to him thrust
packet into his hand. In con-
tanned the ring.-[Tid-Bits.

THE PATENT MIXER.

A new invention is out in England
which IS destined to astonish even
the Yankees. 1t is said that it can
milk any number of cows at the
same time. An English paper thus
describes it: 1.-The mixer consists of
a machine somewhat resembling an
air pump, to which the COW is at
tached by number of tubes. On
the occasion when the lord mayor
OF London lent his patronage to the
interesting experiment, the proceed
1ngs commenced with the arrival of
gentleman of agricultural aspect
who calmly tucked up his Shirt
sleeves and went for the pump with
a determination that showed he was
capable of milking any number of
COWS by the patent mixer or any
other way. Mr.. Nicholson, one of
the patentees, now began to connect
the COW by number of valve tubes
to the machine. The first tube ran
direct from the machine and ended in
milk can of a new pattern. From
the latter ran another tube which
terminated IN four small ones. TO
which In turn were affixed four small
horns tipped with India rubber.
Mr.. Nicholson quickly affixed the
latter to the seats of the COW and the
fun began. The operation was done
silently but efectually by the octo-
pus-looklng combination of tubes
and horns, assisted By theputnp. and
the crowd expressed their satisfac-
ton IN audible terms. The astonish-
ment OF the COW, was, it is said,
ludlcrous IN the extreme. There IS
no doubt a big future before this
machine which leaves the impression

a JOKER AMONG BIRDS.

The bluejay is the most. persistent
practical joker in the feathered
kingdom. He will conceal himself in
a clump of leaves near the spot where
small birds are accustomed to gather.
and when they are enjoying them
selves IN their own fashion will sud
denly brighten them almost to death
by screaming out like a hawk. Of
course they scatter in every direction.
and when they do so the misctievous
rascal gives vent to cackIe that
sounds very much like a laugh. If he
confined his pranks to such Jokes as
TINS, however, he would not be such
a bad neighbor TO birds smaller than
himself, but when he amuses himself
by breaking the eggs IN their nests
and tearing the young to pieces with
ms bill he becomes a pestilent
nuisance, and they often combine
their forces to drive him out of the
nelghborhood. They do not ALWAYS
succeed, for he is as full OF fight as of
mischief, but a severe conflict teaches
hlm that they, too, have their rights.

A TIMELY LEGEND.

That fear of cholera kills more
people than the cholera itself was
illustrated by story told by an old
German citizen yesterday
Many years ago, while the cholera
was raging in parts of Germany
and extending daily its baneful in
Huence, an old doctor taking an even
ing stroll outside the gates of his
town, saw coming toward him a
horrible object. It's form and shape
was human, but it's aspect was a
mass of corruption.
Who are you % asked the doctor.
81 am the cholera
Where are you going ?''
Il am going TO that town.
The doctor, terrified, pleaded and
begged for the monster to change its
route. but to no purpose. It's road
led through the town and into the
town it must go. But to compromise
with the good old doctor the cholera
promised not to kill more than five
people in the town. Next morning
the physician was called to a patient,
whom he found to have the cholera.
The cases multiplied hourly and con-
sternation spread among the people
of the city, and all those who could
get away did so. There were not
five, but 5000 deaths in the town.
After the cholera had subsidized, the
doctor, in his walks, again met the
cholera spectre, and upbraided it
tor not having kept it's word with
him. Said the cholera:
Il swearI have kept my promise
not killed more than five of your
fellow citizens. The others died of
fear."- Cincinnati Commercial.

THE FUTURE OF TELEPHONING.

Il would not undertake to say that
wires may not be dispensed with in
telephoning," said Prof. Alexander
Graham Bell, inventor of the tele-
phone, to the writer. 81 have my
self established communication be-
tween ships at sea two miles apart
without connecting wires. We are
on the threshold Of our knowledge of
electricity, and all that we have
learned only reveals that a force of
practically unlimited possibilities of
adaptation to the wants of human
ity lies just beyond:
What Immediate improvements
IN the telephone are likely to be
made? ?" he asked
Il think" said he, 1.-THE next i'm
provements will be in the systems
rather than in the instrument. The
operating machinery is too COM
pllcated, and it will have to be
s1mpllfled so as to dispense with the
numerous instruments now in use.
The telephone itself is practically the
same now as it was when it was first
made part of commercial life. There
was more complaint then of ability
to understand anything over the
wire than there is now. This
indicates that the people have be-
come educated to its use. The ear
has to be trained Extraneous
noises, such as the rumble of the
cable cars, are great interference.
The service in Paris, where the wires
are through the sewer, is one of the
nnest IN the world. - Chicago

She didn't want to feed the hungry
man who applied at the kitchen

up in an old newspaper, and told
him to go along with it. He went
inside the gate, and sitting down in
the shade he picked the bone. and
then fixed himself comfortably to
read the paper which had enveloped
it. Here, half hour later, the wom-

him to be ornamental.
