She Saw the Emperor.

At the Woman's club in Washington ly told: "I was in Berlin in 1871 when the Emperor William returned from Paris, the war over and Germany victo- rious. I sat in barouche opposite the entrance of the palace. Around was all Berlin-all Germany, as it seemed to me. You could have walked on the heads of the people, but you could not have moved in such 8 crowd. The em- peror came and stood silently before them, and they were silent at first; then the shout that went up was almost aw- full in it's intensity, and the emperor, with a military salute and few words of thanks went in. But that did not sat isfy them; they cried out again and pressed up closer. A peasant woman who had been standing near my carriage said: Oh, let me come inlet me get nearer! Imust see himl have lost two sons in this war;
 II opened the door, and she climbed in and stood up. passed my arm around her to steady her, and then we turned to the balcony of the first floor. In a mo ment the emperor appeared and stood, the center of all eyes and hearts The peasant woman folded her hands and said: Pray for him-pray for him, and all those in his position! They have so much'-there she paused, but I knew she meant blood; she was thinking of her boys-'so much on their handsr The emperor again thanked the people for their welcome and asked them to disperse then, and they did. Almost before could recover myself enough to look around they were all gone, and the great place in front of the palace had only few other carriages, like my own, waiting to drive oa.

POPE LEO ON LABOR.
The Coming EncycliaaI Treats of the socia
 Problem

NEW YORK. Aug. l.-The World prints today the following from Rome: . The pope has been engaged for some months upon an encyclical to all the rulers in Christendom.
 Among other things the pope says: Prop erty is an essential element to social order for the preservation and development of human life, and the divine law has de clared property sacred and inviolable- ''cursed be he who removeth his neighbor's landmark"
 But the poor have, nevertheless, right to be assisted by the rich, not by indis- criminate almsgiving, but by preparing such employment for them as will be use ful. "lf man will not work, neither shall he eat" But if he have no work it is plain ly the duty of those who can do so to pro vide it for him.
 This legitimatizes property. No so called right has any sanction if not sanctioned by God, and no usurpation of others rights can expect the blessing of heaven.
 The social question should be placed on a religious basis if we would obtain at once & philosophical and practical solution of the difficulty. The divine decree is that man shall eat bread by the sweat of his brow, and the apostolic injunction declares that if a man will not work neither shall he eat
 A strike can be justified only as & means of defense, when an individuals interest is attacked. Never can it be justified as collective arm of aggression.
 Man has & natural right to live and to work. As means of procuring living he has right to remove every obstacle to his work and to get the value of his labor. And therefore when hIs labor is neither productive nor remunerative he has right to refuse to continue 1t.
 But an individual right cannot be trans formed into a collective right, nor can an arm of defense be changed into au arm of aggression to cause a means of good to de- generate into source of harm. An ag- gressive strike is not reciprocal between operative and operative, but an instru- ment of attack upon the proprietor and property.
 The operator on strike is a passive and dominated instrument, not an intelligent and free being. While his action lessens the capital of the employer 1t puts no money in his own pocket.
 The right of protecting the operative, whether in the factory or in the field, should be admitted. And for this purpose the maxium of labor as we'll as the mini mum of labor should be fixed. The hours of labor should be arranged, giving due at- tention to days of rest and abstention from labor
 Institutions should be founded and main tained for the sick, the old, the feeble and for those who are unavoidably unoccupied, while punishment should be meted out to the drones of society.

THE DEATH OF HAMLET.

He sleeps at last, and all the grief
 That shook his soul in manhood 8 prime Is waited like some faded leaf
 Across the horizon of time. How shall we fltly say farewell
 To him whose voice in other days Thrilled human hearts as by a spell And won the incense of their praise? Like some ungentle blast that shakes The fairest blossom from the tree Is this grim mystery that takes
 Life's perfume and life's flow'r from thee And can those lips indeed be dumb
 From which such golden words did fall, And Is that princely figure numb
 That yields the purple to the pail? Alas, 'tis sol The prince is dead
 Who showed us Denmark's woes anew. May sweetest rest attend his bed
 And peace the gentle heart and truel The lights are out, the play Is o'er,
 His voice is hushed. In very truth, His presence ne'er shall thrill us more, And Hamlet dies in Edwin Boothl
