THE NEW ORLEANS STRIKE.
A Proposition Mad. to Submit the Matter TO
Arbitration

New ORLEANS, Nov. 9.-The situation In
the general strike is unchanged, and the
fact that the cotton laborerss are stin al
work is regarded as sign OF the weakness
OF the strikers. Every effort has been made
to make these crew of men and their allies
quit work. but the men refuse to obey
the call of the leaders. Governor Foster
was in consultation with the executive COM
mittee Of the Board of Trade to-day with
view Of increasing the force of
militia. About 1900 men are available. but
such force could do but little In case Of a
general riot. The merchants will organiza
an auxiliary force OF several thousand men
and on Friday they will be well armed and
ready to take the field.
Another plan of attack about decided
upon Is to file suits against the labor leaders

Los ANGELES, Nov. 9-The election OF
Marion Cannon, Democrat and Populist,
marks a political revolution in the Sixth
District. 1t is true that there are some
local and personal reasons for the defeat
of Hervey Lindley. Republican. Lindley
has always been the recognized leader Of
the machine element in Los Angeles

his chances. Reports this evening from
pa precincts out of 443 gave Bowers
majority of 1877, which it would
be almost impossible for the Democratic
candidate to overturn. unless there were
extraordinary and unprecedented Demo-
cratic gains In the outlying precincts. 1t
is likely that many Of these will return
Democratic majorities, but all that can be
hoped for by Wellborn is that Bowers
majority will be greatly cut down. A
reasonable estimate of the CongressDan's
majority would place it st 1000.

THE NEW COMET.

Professor Barnard Of the Lick Observatory
Locates 1t.
LICK OBSERVATORY, Mount Hamilton,
Nov. 9.-The comet described by Mr..
Holmes on November was observed here
for position by Professor Barnard on the
night Of November 8. 1t is ca silly visible to
the naked eye. 1t is about two degrees
south of the pebula OF Andromeda. Its
spectrum was observed both usually and
Geographically by Professor Campbell.
Both nucleus and comma give a strong and
continued spectrum. showing only a trace
Of the usual green band. The spectrum is
therefore unique among cometary spectra.

Death of j. F. HOlbrOok.

This morning the sad news is wired tc
camp that J. Frank Holbrook was acct.
dentally killed near Arlington by tho
falling of a cabin in which he had ar
ranged to camp for the night. Mr.. Hol.
brook in company with William Meme
fee was freighting between Neihart and
Great Falls and the latter alone wit
messed the awful accident. These gen
tlemen it seems had brought in certain
articles of their camping outfit to this
isolated cabin and Mr.. Holbrook began
arranging his blankets for a bed. While
so engaged, Mr.. Menefee stepped outside
only to see the roof of the cabin cave and
crush Mr.. HolbrOok to the ground. Word
was telegraphed to friends here and ar
rangementS were made to meet his body
with a team at Monarch and return to
Neihart with it this afternoon.
He leaves a wife and one child thir-
teen months old. The wife is almost
distracted with grief.
The deceased as a man was a type OF
perfect health, powerfully built and OF
wonderful endurance. He was 81 or 2S
years old and weighed geo pounds. He
was temperate, industrious and steady in
his habits, generous and kind to all. 1t
is IN occasion of much sorrow and many
friends suffer with the wife Over his un-
timely end.

WHEN TO FALL IN LOVE.
A Woman Give Some Common Sen
Advice Upon the Subject.

A Woman Gives Some Common Sense
Advice Upon the Subject.
l would venture upon one observa
ton, with which let no youth or
maiden be offended. Tho man who
desires to experience the passion of
love at it's fullest perfection ought
not to be too young. Memories, re-
grets, the experience which furnishes
the faculty for making comparisons,
do not spring into existence, like
mushrooms, in the course of a single
night, and yet these, likewise, are
necessary ingredients in the compost
ton of true passion.
And so, without going quite so far
as that eminent novelist who as his
own years advanced added proper
tionately to those of his heroes, and
was probably only saved by death
from depicting the loves of the abso-
lutely senile, I should certainly not
seek for the constant and devoted
heart beneath the striped fannels of
an undergraduate, any more than I
should look for it within the trim
bodice of the raw schoolgirl, whose
voracious besoin d'aimer might lead
her to fall down and worship the
very first man that came across her
path.
But what has the passing of the
actnal years to do with falling in love,
when the whole matter lies centered
in the in~appreciable ageof the heart9
In order to fall in love vigorously and
satisfactorily q man must have ar

rived at the age of reason. He must
have outlived, that is to say, all that
went to make him hairbrained, i'm
petuous, or incapable of gauging the
strength of his own emotions, while
at the same time he must not have
entered that barren and desolate
region which is strewn with dead
Illusions and shattered idols.
He must have come to know, of
course, that "all is not gold that gilt
tiers, :" while retaining his appreciation
of the precious metal when it is pure
and unalloyed. The sensation of
heart hunger, which comes to most
men at some period of their lives,
must not have been succeeded by that
of either repletion or safety, and he
should still be a believer in true and
d~isinterested affection while admit
ting and deploring the rarity of the
phenomenon.
"Wait till you come to fortyr"

believe the great novelist, a mar

all this modern march of intellect,
which inculcates temperate habits
and improved sanitary conditions
with the result, as l hear, of increas-
ing the average of human longevity,
may have somewhat extended the
limit of male sensibility.
Be that as it may, however, the
period of mans enlightened suscep-
tibility must of necessity be brief;
brief as the feeting months which
intervene between seed time and
harvest. While, in some matter Of

Why They Kne1t.

Charles II of England was noted
for his good nature, and although he
was sometimes called "Unthinking
Charles" yet his heedlessness was
more an apparent than a real char
~acteristic. The extravaganza of his
reign went hand in hand with his
poverty, and on some occasions even
the royal table was but poorly served.
There is a story told of Grammont,
who one day dined in state with the
king.
Charles babe the count to notice
that he was served upon the knee, a
mark of respect to guests of the king
not common at other courts.
Il thank your majesty for the ex-
PLANTATION" answered Grammont. II
thought they we're begging pardon
for giving you so bad a dinner
