back to his place the strike will be settled
favorably to them.
There was n story started to-day to tho effect
that cable had been received from Mr.. Car
negie ordering that all the men be taken back
on their own terms until he could reach the
country and adjust the troubles This created
great deal OF excitement.

4 SYRIAN WEDDING.
The First That Has Been Witnessed in
America.

America.
a Syrian wedding, the first of the
kind ever witnessed in this country, was
celebrated at St. Louis on recent af-
ternoon, in accordance with the usages
that prevail in Syria. In America it
would be called a reception, but it
differed from the ordinary receptions in
that it was strictly for Syrians. The
groom was Kalel WasoH and the bride
was Adlaid Miken. After being mar
ried by Catholic priest at st. Mary's
church, the couple, in company with
about seventyfve of their countrymen,
men and women, proceeded to celebrate
the event. There were beer, wine and
eatables in abundance. A part Of the
programme was the spraying of per-
fume from cologne bottle over the
crowd, every newcomer getting a sup
ply Of the odors in the face. The ladies
present, Of whom there was quite a
number, INDUCED IN a doleful chant in
the Syrian language, which lasted for

AN INDIAN FIGHTER.
The Wieie-Reaching influence of the Dime
NOyel of America.

The understanding influence of the Dime
Novel of America.
The Indian has always had deadly
enemy in the small boy, and doubtless
always will have, says the New York
Morning Advertiser The reading Of
one dime novel is sufficient to implant
in the breast of the average youngster
the conviction that the Indian has no
business to live, and that it is his duty
to exterminate him at the earliest pos
sible moment. The latest develop
ments go to show that the German
translation Of the American dime novel
will even stir the blood of a German
boy away off in amburg. Ernest
Brandt, eleven years old, living in that
city, read an Indian tale or two, and,
not knowing that other boys had been
moved in the same way, be made up
his mind at once that the Indian was
indeed a warmth that must be re-
moved from the face of the earth. He
saw his duty, and at the first opportuni-
ty set out for America, determined to
begin the slaughter the moment he ar
rived. His disappointment was great
at finding no trail in Battery park, and
his disgust must have been considerable
when he found only a wooden Indian
here and there on Broadway After
excepting his eyes peeled as they do in
the dime novels, and finding no Indians
worthy of his vengeance, he went out to
White Plains, near Yonkers, doubtless
associating White Plains with the plains
over which the Indians roamed, and
took service on farm to await develop
ments. It was here he learned that the
Indians were farther west, and feeling
that he must soon make some of them
''bite the DUST" he stole the farmers
rifle, gold watch, sleeve buttons and
other necessaries, and came to New
York to ':get his bearings previous to
starting on the western trail. A small
boy with a large rifle attracted the at
tention Of a Bowery policeman, and he
was arrested. His great scheme Of
slaughter is frustrated, and for the time
at least the Indian is safe. The Incl
dent shows the wide-reaching influence
of the American dime novel, and the
dangers which constantly beset the
path of the redman.

MILITARY RULE IN EUROPE.
War Ia Considered Possible and Even
Probable at Amy Moment.

War Ia Considered Possible and Even
Probable at Any Moment.
European civilization to-day is based
on the idea that war is not only an inn
minent possibility but n probability,
and great class in every country has
been trained to look upon blood she'd
ding as it's proper vocation. The great
prizes arc reserved for soldiers; honors,
fame, position and the monarchs favor
go to the sons of Mars. The military
budget exceeds-many times over does
it exceed-the appropriations for public
instruction. The salary Of a colonel is
earned by but few professors, writes
W. E. Thayer in the Forum. The cost
of the powder and shot wasted in Eu-
rope between any dawn and dusk
would probably pay the running ex-
penses of all her public hospitals. In
each government, whether it be consti-
tutional or autocratic, the army may
with truth be said to direct legislation,
for the legislatures willingly or I'M
willingly vote the appropriations
demanded by the war department.
Even if legislature dares to ques-
ton or protest it is quickly fright
ened into acquiescing by an alarm
ing report from the minister for
war. Thus the military class controls
government and has laws passed to suit
itself, and prevents all attempts to cut
down or to abolish its powers. 1t in
timidates the state not less really,
though less openly, than the pretorian
guard intimidated old Rome. Kings
and ministers do indeed assure the pub
lie that they chiefly endeavor and de-
sire to preserve peace, but in the next
breath they call for larger funds and
more recruits. Kaisers meet and kiss
each other on both cheeks; they extol
the sweetness of brotherly love; they
attend each others grand maneuvers,
and then they increase the garrisons
along their respective frontiers. A
strange method this for testifying to
their peaceable intentions!

a TEN-YEAR-OLD MOTHER.

Remarkable Percentage OF u s1an born
in PooTlouse.
Hodges Drayton, who was the other
day in Fall River, Mass, held in one
thousand dollars bonds for trial at
the next term Of the supreme Grim
inal court charged with assault,
has had remarkably chcckered ca
reer, says the Pittsburgh Tel.
cgraph. He was born in the aims
house in Taunton February |, 1858. His
mother at that time was only ten years
and eight months old, while his father
was lad of fifteen years. The records
Of the overseer of the poor OF Taunton
furnish indisputable evidence OF these
facts. His mother, Elizabeth Drayton,
was herself born in the same institution
on May "a, 1S47, and always lived there
previous and subsequent to the birth OF
the boy. The case was looked upon as
extraordinary in this climate and was
thoroughly investigated by DR.. Curtis,
state registrar of statistics.
Drayton, like his people before him,
was brought up in the almshouse and
remained a ward of that institution I'M
til fourteen years OF age. For some
minor offense he was sent to the reform
school and two years later was sent to
the house of correction in New Bed
ford for the larcany of a gun. After
leaving there he led a nomadic life in
the western country and finally entered
the army. He deserted, was captured,
court-martialed and sentenced for a
term in the government penitentiary in
Kansas. After his release he wandered
from state to state, oftentimes chang
ing his location hurriedly. He returned
to Taunton and within five hours was
arrested for stealing horse and buggy
He was sentenced to the house of cor.
rection again in November, 1890, and
served short term. He then came to
Fall River, was married and lived an
exemplary life. Although born OF 3
child he is six feet tall, straight as an
arrow and in every way is 9 remarkable

a YEARS IMMIGRATION
The Numerous Arrivals on Our
Shores in Twelve Months.
AL the Nations of Earth Contributing to
Our Annual Growth-The Coun-
tries Furnishing the Prin-
cip8l Increase.

A statement recently issued from the
treasury bureau of statistics. shows the
mum Der of immigrants of different ma
tionalities arrived in the country during
the last fiscal year. The whole num-
Der of arrivals was 555, 496, against
451,219 during the fiscal year. l890-an
increase of 1O4,277 The number
arrived last year was greater than in
any previous year since 1888, when the
total was 6o3,322 and it has been ex-
ceeded in only two other years-in
1881, when the number of arrivals was
669, 431, and in 1882, when it was 1885,
992
Two things are to be remarked with
reference to these comparisons: First,
that since 1885 the arrivals from Canada
and Mexico have not been included in
the official reports; and, second, that
since 1882 the Chinese have been ex-
Guided by law, and the government
officials have been supposed to know
that there were no arrivals from the
fiowery kingdom. But there has been
nothing to prevent immigration from
Canada and Mexico. and as a matter of
fact good many Chinese have found
their way into the country.
How much the totals of late years
would be swelled if all the immigrants
from these countries were included it is
impossible to say. We know that from
1880 to 1884, both years inclusive the
arrivals from American countries varied
from $1,000 to $1,000 and that since 1685
*1nv hnv1 a 9
officially reported. The arrivals from
China fell from an average of perhaps
$4,000 for several years before 1888 to
almost none since that year. 1t is per-
haps safe to say that $4,000 should be
added to the figures of recent years ON
these accounts. But that addition would
still leave last year far behind 1881 and
1882 in the number Of arrivals.
The principal increase last year as
compared with the year before was
from the following countries: From
Italy, 1854; from Austria-Hungary,
14,s61; from Germany, 81, 1872; from Rus
STA, including Poland, 28,245. The ARR
walls from Italy were Is, 143, which was
more than from any other one country
except Germany. Never until 1880 did
the arrivals from Italy much exceed
5000 year. Since then they have rap
idly increased except in the years 1854,
1885 and 1886. The immigration from
Russia never reached 5000 a year but
once before 1882. Last year it was
A, 4O1, and it exceeded $4,000 in each of
the two preceding years. Because of
the persecution of the Jews it is likely
to be greater hereafter.
