On N Strike.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. ga general strike
of warehouse men. packers and drivers
has been inaugurated and all the whole
sale houses. railroads and warehouses
in the city are affected. Tho strike is due
to the refusal of the merchants to sign the
tariff prescntc, by the unions.acting under
the American Federation of Labor. Tho
chief difference Of contention on the part
of tho unions is that only union members
bc employed. Roustabouis. freight hand
lcrs aud other sections Of the labor fedcra-
ton are expected TO join the strike. The
result may tie prolonged tie-up OF all
business in the city.

When the voice grows weak and husky, when
tho breath comes faint and slow;
When the soul oppressed and saddened for

When hours grow from moments and eyes with
tears are blurred
FOR the knock that never cometh, the footstep
never heard,
oh, weary, worldly waiter, on the seeming
laggard pace

SOLDIERS AT DIVINE SERVICE.

They Appeared Devout Enough to SAT-
isfy the Most Exacting of Army Marti-
nets.
Maj. Randlett, of the Ninth cavalry,
was good soldier and man of disci-
pline, but he believed in allowing the
men some sort of liberty so long as they
remained within the bounds of reason.
He never urged them to attend relig.
ious service, and there were a good
many of them who never went He
seldom asked what they were doing
when off duty, so long as he knew they
would probably be ready when duty
called them. One day his post was Wis
tied by colonel commanding, and
every one got ready to go on good be-
havior. There was no order, or any
thing of that kind, but it was well
known the colonel disliSed the general
looseness of army morals and particu-
larly disliked seeing men and officers
lounging about their quarters on Sun
day, when they should be at church
He had spoken of the matter so often,
and his views were so well known that
Maj. Randlett resolved to win his ap-
proval, and then tell him how IL was
DONE
So, on Saturday evening at retreat
he issued an order that never had been
issued before All the companies were
drawn up in line for roll-call, the first
sergeants took their positions before
them, and at the proper distance were
the company officers. At his regulation
distance from these stood the visiting
colonel commanding the regiment He
listened to the strains of the band and
approved them. He heard the sergeants
call the roll and report in the sw.ft mil
itary monotone that the companies
were presented or accounted Cor, and
then he heard those same sergeants
turn to the men and recite another or
der, retire to their posts and the parade
ended. What the sergeant had said in
that last moment he did not know, but

AN ARMY KITTEN.
A Little Union Girls Gift to Her Country's
Defenders.

n Little Union Girls Gift to Her Couutry's
Defenders.
One evening toward the close Of the
war. while Union soldiers lay in camp
on hillside near the Stanton river,
Virginia, the cry of Halt! who goes
thcre?" from a sentry startled every
lounger to his feet; and several of the
more curious ran to the guard-line to
find ont what the trouble was. A min
ute later all knew that the night visitor
who had been challenged was no enemy.
little girl, about ten years of age,
holding white kitten in her arms,
came forward into the light of the
fires, conducted by two soldiers who
had told the sentry to pass her in, and
who looked as proud as il they were
escorting queen.
The whole regiment gathered-in-
cluding the colonel himself-to look at
the child and hear her tell her story.
A very short story it was-scarcely
paragraph; but there was matter
enough in it for full chapter. She
lived near by with her father. who was
sick and poor; and they were Northern
ers, she said, and Union folks" Her
mother was dead and her brother had
been killed while fighting in the federal
army. She wanted to give some
thing" and wher. the union soldiers
came she thought she would bring her
pet kitten and present it to the colonel
The colonel took the little girl in his
arms and kissed her, and the kitten,
too, and said he was not bit ashamed
of his weakness He accepted the kit
ten with thanks, and its innocent donor
was gallantly waited on to her humble
home, loaded with generous contribu-
tions.
The white kitten was adopted by the
regiment, but considered the property
and special pet OF the colonel, and when
the war was over he took it home with
him. Like the white lamb that staid
and fed with the victors after the battle
of Autietam, that little creature, during
its short but stirring army life, was
daily inspiration to better feelings and
thoughts in the presence of all that is
worst-a living flag of truce cleaning
among the thunder clouds of human
passion and tr;fe.-Harper's Young

The First Native Japane.o Christian.

A native Japanese Christian periodi.
cal recently told the story of the first
Protestant Christian in Japan. This was
one Murata, military retainer of the
Lord of Saga, in the southern island OF
Kiushin. In 1S60he went to Nagasalsi by
order of his chief, and one evening as
he was crossing the harbor in boat he
picked Np book that was floating
about in the water. The writing ran
from side to side, like the crawling Of
crabs" and upon sending 1t to one OF
the Dutch then settled at Nagasaki he
learned that it was the Christian Bible,
then prescribed hook Curiosity
spurred him on, and he had one of his
assistants learn the language of the
book and translate it for him sentence
by sentence. His study was continued
in secret with few friends, after HIS
return home. When difficult passage
was found a messenger was sent to DIR.

tigue. He received the reporos OF the
captains and dismissed tho companies
Next morning hc was surprised TO
see what clean and tidy men Maj. Rand
lett had in his command. Every one
of ha men had on clean clothes,
whether or not on duty, and every one,
when the time came, went up to the
Catholic church just beyond the reser-
vatiou lines. There was no chaplain at
the post. The colonel went to mass, as
he was devout Catholic, and felt
proud to be in the same army with n
lot of men who kept the Sabbath so
well and made themselves so tidy.
AT dinner he asked Maj. Randlett
how he had managed to bring his men
into such n commendable habit but
Randlett only parried the question.
Two years afterward, however, the
two men met at dinner in Washing
ton and the colonel was telling of the
excellent Sunday observance in Rand
lett's command. He could not speak
in sufficiently high terms of that por-
ton of the Ninth cavalry.
I'll tell you how it happened" said
the major.
''How?" asked the colonel.
"Well, after the sergeants finished
calling the roll that night had them
read the following. order, which was
sure you would not be able to hear and
would probable not find on the books:
All men not on guard who attend mass
tomorrow morning will be excused
from duty All men who do not attend
