every State will contribute to the
number something which will be

hietory or associations. One Of the
best contributions will be shown by

A Phrase That Is Not English.

Il will give a prize of 500 to any n
who can prove hat the expression don't
you know, or, as it is often rendered,
'doncherknow,' was ever used in Eng
land by a real En%glishman," declared a
person of the British persuasion the other
day.
The phrase had its origin in Philadel-
phia, where it is much in vogue, because
certain dudes there believe it is English.
No Englishman ever says Don't you
know The expression he does use is
You know such as I'm going up to
London, you know. to get me new
trousers, you know
This may be a STARTER for certain
young men about town, who by dint of
great practice are able to interject
'doncherknow' at about every ten words
in their conversation. I'm sorry to hurt
their feelings. New York Herald.

Fifty Kinds of Electric Fishes.

According to the statements OF the
English naturalist. Professor Stirling,
there are IN existence today upward or
fifty species of fishes having more or less
specialized organs, the function of which
is the generation of electric discharges.
The fishes differ widely, sometimes
strikingly, from each other, belonging
mostly to different families, and &C.
~casionally even to different orders of the
Pisces" In structure they closely re-
semble the other species of the genera
to which they severally belong, differ
ing from them. with an occasional ex-
ception, mainly in the possession Of or
gans for electric generation.
The well known electric rays" for
example, of which Nicholson mentions
three and Gunther six, are the most
prominent. These rays are found in the
Atlantic and Indian oceans and the
Mediterranean sea, and are seen in the
English channel, or even farther north;
while other electric fishes are still more
cosmopolitan, though most of them in
habit limited areas and warm waters

A FIGHT AT CARNEGIE'S WORKS.
The Iron Workers Administer q Severe
Lesson to the PinkertOns.

LtSSOn 10 the flnkeftO0Ss
Tuesday of this week drawn bat.
tie occurred at the Carnegie Iron
Works, Homestead, eight miles cas-,
of Pittsburg, between the locked>out
employees OF the works and $50 to 400
Pinkerton "detectives'' sent there
fully armed with Winchesters to sup
press the strikers.
The detectives came down the Ohio
river in two iron sheeted whale. back
barges towed by a steamer, and ar.
rived at Homestead about 4 O'Clock
in the morning.
On attempting to land they were
met with yolleys from rifles in the
hands OF the iron workers, and driven
back to their boats. The iron workers
were well led, aud peppered the
barges and steamer all day, the fight
lasting until 5 o'clock in the after
noon, when the Piukerton men, who
hoisted white flags several times dur-
ing the day, only to have them shot
down, were finally allowed to surren-
der, and 234 of them were escorted to
Jail by guards supplied by the iron
workers.
An examination disclosed the fact
that II workmen, and 8 detectives
were killed, ard Is workmen and 81
detectives were wounded in the battle,
best les at least $50 detectives more
or less seriously injured, and an unas-
certained number of iron workers.
While regretting the butchery ev.
cry lover of justice will rejoice that
Pinkerton's mercenaries have at last
been made an example of. All labor
troubles can and 81 ould be settled
without a resort to arms.

1t Is Well Calculated to illustrate One
Eject Of the Discount on Silver.
The owners of the Galore. Stormy
group of mines, in Smoky, have just
had forcible illustration of the loss
caused by the demonstration Of silver.
They have shipped carload of ore
which carried 4304 ounces of silver
per ton. There were over 10 tons in
the lot, but for facility of reckoning it
may be assumed that the lot was of
ten tons. They therefore sold 1890
ounces of silver at the present dis
count, which exceeds As cents per
ounce, and sustained loss of over
$4,000 on this single shipment, be-
cause of the depreciation in the value
Of the white metal.
The two owners Of the Galore
Stormy group reside in Haley. One
of them is the editor OF this paper,
who has been accused, by the editor
of the Silver Messenger, Of the Tus-
carora Times Review, and other
equally eminent Journalists" who
have probably never owned an ounce
of bullion in their lives, OF upholding
the gold>bugs in their hitherto suc>
cessful attempts to debase the white
metal.

THE UNITED STATES.

1t Has Driven British Trade from
Brazil, and Will Do Likewise iu the
West Indies and Elsewhere.
At the second session OF the Im>
perial Commercial Congress-. just held
in London, Sir Charles Upper com>
planned of the growing commercial
supremacy Of the United States. He
said that the American Mckinley bill
showed no favor to Great Britain, and
that there were risks of the octopus
American throwing its tentacles over
the West Indies aud the Spanish An
titles with the view OF driving out Brit
ish trade, and that it was going to do
SO. British consuls, he said, reported
that Great Britain had lost Brazil and
that America was getting hold under
her reciprocity system. In their
efforts to drive England out of the
southern hemisphere Americans, he
said, did English commerce greater
harm than did the Mckinley tariff.
Going further, he said that the Ameri-
cans attacked Canada under the mis-,
taken idea that by imposing duty
upon the products for which they fur
nish Canada's natural market they
could bring Canadian producers to
their knees and leave the Canadians
no alternative but to become a part
OF the United States.
These remarks will be read with in-
terest in the United States. Taken
ia connection with the not insignlfi.
cant minority in favor of his PROPOSE
ton, they indicate that the reaching
out Of the latter country for markets
is compelling keen attention on the
part Of other commercial nations.
