VERY SMALL WORK.

Certain persons, candidates for the
Office which Justice Mckee fills with
honor and dignity to himself and to
the satisfaction Of our people, have
since the hearing in the shooting case
yesterday been making some state
ments that are calculated to place that
gentleman in false position. Justice
Mckee did not agree to release Mr..
Evans upon bail. It was matter Of
agreement or arrangement ofthe conn-
sci. Furthermore, during the hearing
the door Of the Jury room was not
locked by his order as has been stated.

GAVE UP THE FIGHT.
THE BUFFALO STRIKE DECLARED
OFF.
THE MEN NOW FIND THEMSELVES
WITHOUT MONEY Or WORK
cRusHINGLY DEFEATED.

BUFFALO, Aug. o5.--"The switch
mems strike is off. This announce
ment was contained in an order issued
late Tuesday night by Grand Master
Sweeney. of the Brotherhood Of Rail-
road Switchmen. II means that after
causing the calling out Of over 1000 Of
the National Guard of the State,
bloekading for days the freight traffic
on the Central, Erie, Lehigh, West
Shore, Lake Shore, and Nickle Plate
Lines. thus causing a loss Of thousands
Of dollars to the railroads and their
shippers, being the indirect cause at
least of rioting and incendiarism and
acts of violence toward the militia,
county officers and non-union work
men, the few hundred switchmen in
yolved find themselves without posi-.
tions, minus wages for almost two
weeks, and some Of them in danger Of
Delng Arrested.
1t also means that Grand Master
Sweeney, who directed the strike, ha.
been completely foiled in his designs
and no doabt the result will effectually
dispose Of him as . power in the labor
world. On the other hand, it com
pletes for the companies q victory that
was only attained after . hard and de.
ternined struggle. The influence Of
the Switchmen's Union on the road.
involved lisa thing Of the past, and i
tho old men are taken back it will b
with q distinct understanding tina
they will serve under individual con
tracts.

HOW TO BREW TEA.
a Something Every Honse4ssper II Not
Able 10 Do.

: 81
The delicate leaf Of tea should never
touch metal. II should be kept in pa
per, wood, glass or porcelain. To make
It, put q small quantity in porcelain
cup, fill the latter with boiling water,
cover II with d porcelain saucer, and
let It stand three minutes.
Then, il yon desire to be an epicure,
drink only the upper layer Of the COL
den liquid, throw the rest away, rinse
the cup, and begin drawing de novo,
says the Philadelphia Times. Never
use sugar any more than you would
sweeten Chambertin or pour molasses
into Mumm's extra dry. Do not use
milk. II ruins the flavor Of the tea.
and the combination injuries the stom-
ach.
Above all things, do not boil tea.
The heat drives off the perfume, spoils
the flavor and extracts the tannip, the
astringent principle. If the boiling be
done in q tin or IRON pot, the tan
min attacks the metal and makes the
liquid black.
Never let the tea stand, except in
tightly-closed porcelain pot. Standing
changes it from delicious, wholesome
beverage into an ill-tasting and bitter
- "
liquor. Better make it in small guam
titles, and make it often. In summer
sip the tea boiling hot. with slice Of
previously peeled lemon or, nicer still,
Of orange without the rind, floating In
it.
Beware Of green tea! It's the I'M
ripe leaf, and bears the same relation
to the real article that the green does
to the ripe peach. Tho green tea Of
commerce derives its color from being
cured, or rather killed, on dirty copper
pans; from being mixed with weeds
and shrubs; from being stained with
indigo and chrome yellow; from being
colored with verdigris, grass Juice or
chlorophyl.

The general direction OF cholera epi-
demic is westward, and, It il said, it
usually starts at the beginning Of q
season, about whore il was stopped
BY frost the previous year. There was
one marked exception 10 this rule
when in 1884 the disease was very pre-
valent throughout Spain, Southern
France and Italy. II was then feared
it would break out again the following
year and continue It's westward march
to the United States, but it did not APP
pear at all in Western Europe the next
year, nor did it cross the Atlantic. II
is possible it may DO confined to Eu-
rope this year and then disappear ~
it did in 1884. The disease is regard
ed as very severe this year, and infor-
nation. from some of the cholera
stricken places gives the percentage Of
fatal cases as high as fifty.
DR.. Austin, acting surgeon-general
Of the marine hospital service, Wash.
lington, said to day he did not know
whether any action would be taken by
the Treasury Department to supple
ment the local State and city quaran-
tines by general national quarantine.
That was matter to be determined by
the Secretary Of the Treasury, and
would probably depend largely upon
the nature Of tile news from the In
fected districts. III case eheb d quar-
antine Is established Il will be under
the direction Of the surgeon general OF
the marine hospital service, and sta
tions viii be established at the most
conveniently situated points for inter-
cepting vessels on their way to the
various ports Of the United States. The
vessels Of the revenue marine service
would act in concert with the quaran-
tine officers, and would stin seeing
that no vessels escaped the quarantine
regulations.
The Board Of Health has to cope

tive Of the diseases of the world, and
in its most subtle form. The cholera
is now ending thousands Of lives every
day in. Asia, il is causing resultsnearly
as disastrous in the humanity Of Eu-
rope, and it wants but an entrance into
America to make itself universal and
to bring about an epidemic that would
have the world for its field, becoming

that of 1866.

WASHINGTON, Aug. Is. The marine

aspect Of the cholera epidemic as more
threatening than il has been since the
last appearance Of that disease in this
country in 4 mild form IN 1872, and
every precaution is to be taken to pro

present the local quarantine officers Of
the States viii be relied upon to enforce
most Of the measures required, and the
only step taken BY the federal authori-
ties thus far in addition to requesting
the disinfection Of all baggage and
clothing at the infected ports has been
to request the officers Of all lines from
Hamburg and Bremen to Baltimore to
stop their vessels at the United States

TWICE FORTUNATE.

The friends of Home Rule, now that
the hearing in Washington has closed, are
congratulating themselves that the OPP
position was represented at the capital by
the two Liberal delegates. Of course no
body could have presented a strong argu-
ment against the bill. The appeal is so
manifestly just that it does not admit of
forceful antagonism. Loyal American
citizens, to the number of nearly quarter
OF million, plead for emancipation from
system Of government which is ugly and
un-republican in its every feature, and
squarely antagonistic to the theory
upon which the nation is founded.
They go farther, and show beyond dispute
that they are not only entitled to what they
ask for, but are able to maintain the gov
eminent in manner which will be alike
creditable to themselves and the nation.
The proposition is so plain and convincing
that all are satisfied it can be opposed
only on the grounds of hate or personal in
terest. 1t is therefore fortun ate that the
bill was fought by two such men as Judge
PowERs and G. E. ALLEN, both of whom
have fed and fattened on their hatred of the
people of Utah, and both of whom have
reaped large personal benefit from the an
omalous and un-republican system prevail
ing here. 1t cams out in the hearing, be-
ing confessed by POWERS himself, that he
was paid S10,0 900 cash for carrying an cleo
ton in this city. Only one inference
| could be drawn from this incident, and the
Senators and Representatives who heard
the confession will not beIslow to draw that
inference. They will also be quick to I'M
derstand why POWERS should be so eager
to defeat law which would abolish sys-
tenn that makes it possible for him to win
$4,000 by winning an election. 1t was
also developed in the committee that the
other anUi-Rome Rule delegate is holding
profitable Office which he obtained by
methods severely denounced by the gu
preme court. The members of the commit
tees will readily see why Mr.. ALLEN does
not want the election machinery wresteG
from those who have manipulated it in nj:
interest TO so much purpose. They will sea
that self-interest prompts MIR. ALLEN u
oppose bill which would mako it impos
sible for his henchmen to vote grave stone.
and absentees, and equally so to proven
citizens from voting that majority nigh
be counted in his favor
Home Rule ie doubly fortunate-first, il
the frmness of the rock upon which 1t i
founded, and second, in the opposition
arrayed against it.
