On Tuesday as a Grove of bullocls
numbering about 40 were being driven
from the Canadian shed to the Wood
side lairage at Birkenhead, a singular
accident happened. On the river side
of the Alfred dock there is narrow un-
dulating bridge, recently placed there
by the Mersey docks and harbor board
for the purpose of conveniently transfer
Ing cattle to the lairages. The bridge
will allow two bullocks to pass over
abreast. but Yesterday the beasts became
jammed and one of them leaped into
the Alfred dock and was Immediately
followed by "a others.
The scene in the water was most ex-

There WIS :. vicious fight between two
laborers ia Greenwood cemetery late
Saturday afternoon. and one Of them.
John Redmond. e5 years old. OF Twenty
first street near Fifth avenue is laid up
in the Norwegian hospital suffering from
ugly wounds on the chest. shouldersand
face, and what the doctors think may be
a fracture of the skull. 1t is a question
of whether he can recover. and the hos
pital physicians were very much i'll doubt
about the case.
Michael Vester, 81 years old, is locked
up in the Fourth avenue police station,
charged with the assault. The men are
relatives and had been employed for some
time as laborcrs in the cemetery. Satur-
day afternoon they were engaged cut
ting grass on adjoining plots in the grave
yard when dispute arose between them.
The police say that the quarrel was about
some family matter, but the exact char
acter of the disagreement is unknown.
Both men were using sickles, and sudden
ly they assaulted each other with the
weapons.
The attack came first from Vester, it
is said, and he soon succeeded in render
ing his opponent hors de combat with
his weapon of peace. The cemetery po-
lice got wind of the dispute, and Cap
tain Lask, with Officer Bachrus, hurried
to the assistance of the wounded man.
Redmond was taken care of until the
arrival of the ambulance, and then he
was removed to the hospital. His as
sailant was arrested and taken around to
the Eighteenth precinct police station.
He was reticent concerning the cause of
the quarrel and said he was not respon-
sible for the fight.-Brooklyn Eagle.

One of the rarest books extant is the
first edition Of "Don Quixote, published
in Madrid in 1905. Recently collector
in the City of Mexico while examining
pile of old books for sale in one of the
remoter wards of the city came across
an ancient edition of "Quixote," but
mistaking the date concluded it was not
q first edition. Next day he discovered
by reference to his library that the book
was genuine first edition.
He went back to find the treasure, but
it had been sold for waste paper in the
interim, and although search has been
made in every small shop in the city the
precious volume cannot be found. A

ENGLAND's UNEMPLOYED.

Measures Adopted Which, 1t Il Thought,
Will Give ,03o,oO0 Persons Relief.
The English government has at last
determined to deal with the more than
ever vital question of the unemployed.
and their experiments will be watched
with interest by all the world Sir John
Gorst has pronounced himself in favor
of Il plan f, dealing With the question
in the rural dist.ic.s whIci! has received
the sympathetic consideration Of the
government. The proposal is to EN-
power the local authorities to buy or
lease waste or unoccupied land, and to
turn the surplus labor upon 1t.
By this means il is believed that tens
of thousands of acres HOW useless could
be made fertile by spade labor and at
the same time an effective check be put
upon the persistent migration of ,ncnl-
ployed agricultural lnborers into the
towns. an evil which is the despair of
many ccoao:liats. 1t is asserted that
this is almost ,'!e only way protitablv to
employ the i,.le without bringing them
into subsidized competition with actual
workers.
MeGnW me ltlau energetic a!lt TeuiaTh-
ably practical socialist member of par
lament, John Burns, after many inter
views and much correspondence with
Mr.. Fowler, president of the local gov
ernment board, has persuaded that gen
tleman to issue a circular to the local
authorities giving them permission to
institute relief works for unemployed
ablebodied men, and urging them to take
full advantage of the novel power thus
conferred. There is nothing to prevent
relief works from taking the form of the
reclamation of waste land and some
authorities will probably utilize the
mems labor in that manner.
John Burns tells me there are IA, 900
statutory local authorities. so that if
each finds employment Toy only 10 men
a total of lie eco will receive work this
winter. Lrt it is more likely inat work
will be fo;n;. ion 3iU.0oo Of the great
army Of the unemployed. and that no

To suppress Peculiar industries.

The French government has deter
mined to suppress two new and peculiar
industries. One is process for turning
old playing cards into new in order to
escape the heavy tax. The authorities
have seized three such factories. The
treasury has already lost 100000
through their operations. The other
trade is i'll renovated secondhand grave
yard ornaments which the French use
extensively. The object of the latter re-
form is to STOP the wholesale despoiling
of cemeteries.
