Master Workman Sovereign said
that at present there was as great
need for freeing the white wage
slave as there over was for their
colored brothers. Our country will
go down as others have done il the
rich continue growing richer and
the. poor poorer. Society is now
being shaken from stem to stern by
labor troubles. The remedy is in
ballots, not bullets.
Ives beat Slosson easily in the
billiard tournament at New York.
The score was 600 to 47S.
The cruiser New York has return
ed from final trial trip. Cramp

success.

granddaughter of the President Of
that name, presided. There was
scarcely standing room.
By a decision of the Florida Su-
preme Court the validity of the
municipal government of Jackson
vile is maintained. This means the
passage of an ordinance permitting

will under that law come off Janu-
airy rs.

other ships of war, now building, will
be pushed forward with the utmost
possible dispatch.
After heated debate on an oppo-
sition motion to adjourn, the House
of Commons sustained the Govern
ment by majority Of so. Glad
stone replied warmly to the attacks
on his administration, amid cheers
from friends and groans from enc
mics.
Both the Spanish and the Servian
treaties passed second readings in
the German Reichstag. Chancellor
Caprivi caused sensation by say,
ing the deputies should not be in
fluenced by the masses. He said il
was impossible to take any step re-
garding the currency unless Eng
land joined in it, and there was nc
hope of that since Gladstone hat

GUARDING AGAINST ANARCHISTS.

Immediately after the Govern
ment's repressive bills have been
adopted by the French Deputies,
additional arrests are to be made.
Pending the vote on these bills90O,00O
francs will be voted for an increase
Of the police force. The authorities
are preparing scheme for the ade-
quate surveillance of persons known
to have revolutionary tendencies.
The whole machinery will be in
working order at the beginning of
the new year. Leopold Koch, the
Austrian shoemaker, has been order
ed to quit France within eight days,

anarchist prints and compromising
letters were found in his possession.

SPEAKER CRISP

Arrives In Washington But Declines ta
Talk About the Committee ASS gn-
ments.
WASHINGTON, July 8l.-speaker Crisp
arrived in the city Sunday evening and
has taken his old quarters at the
Metropolitan hotel. He ref:.ses, natur-
ally, to say anything about probable
committee assignments or to discuss
the policy to be pursued regarding i'm
portant legislation. He believes the
session will be n long one, and will
probably last until next summer. Mr..
Cleveland, the speaker said, intended
calling congress together in September
to consider the tariff, and if questions
of finance are taken up before the tariff
it can easily be seen that the session
can not we'll get through with both
matters before December. He will re-
main here until congress convenes.

THOSE LUSCIOUS CHERRIES.
How to Pickle and Otherwise Preserv
Them.

How to Pickle and Otherwiso Preserve
Them.
The best rule for spiced cherries, or
sweet pickles, is seven pounds of sour
cherries. three pounds and half of
sugar and pint of vinegar. The cher
ries should be stoned and the juice
carefully preserved. Put the juice,
cherries, vinegar and sugar over the
stove to boil. Add two tablespoonfuls
of stick cinnamon and one tablespoon
full of whole cloves. Let the pickle
cook for about an hour, then can it or
set away in jars. 1t is an excellent
pickle served with meats.
Dld-fashioned housekeepers some-
times add raisins to their preserved
cherries in the proportion of one pound
of raisins to five pounds of cherries.
Readers are cautioned that these re-
ceipts will prove satisfactory only when
directions are strictly ad hcred to. How
ever excellent the average sweet cherry

EDUCATION AND POETRY.
The Slums Said to Contain tho Best Read
People in New York.


The best read people of New York
live in the slums. Herbert Spencer is
read more in the Bowery than in Fifth
avenue. Fourth avenue's S shabby houses
shelter greater number of Rehan's
admirers than do the palaces near Cen
trail park John Jacob Astor never read
Aristotle and knows nothing of Catul-
lus. The members of the Bricklayers'
union, that meets up a back street,
turned out in force the other night to
listen to discourse by one of their
number on the Punic wars. If the poor
of Gotham stopped reading the news
papers and periodicals, some of Amer
ica's greatest literary men would find
their occupations gone.
1t is this curious inconsistency that
prompted a recent article in the Forum
by a celebrated American, under the
caption, "The Dangers of an Irrespon-
sible Educated Class" Bishop Potter
thinks the pleasure seeking propensi.
ties of wealthy New Workers and their
neglect of matters purely intellectual
are largely the causes of that decline
of patriotism he SO greatly deplores.
Henry George asserts that the poor are
waking up. Reading is their best prep.
aration for that social revolution he
daily looks forward to.
ITO whom then do you sell this
stuff" asked an elevated railroad
newsman, whose counter was piled
with the hottest of Frances salacious
literary wares
"Women and men," he answered,
with lots of time and money. You
don't suppose a person making few
dollars day would spend it for books
like these, that cost a dollar apiece?"
A bookseller whose wares are high
priced said that his wealthy customers
crave French fiction, while philosophy,
history and essays go begging.
Down town, where the secondhand
bookstores thrive, solid reading matter
is in steady demand among the toilers
whose pockets are best lined on pay
day. New York carpenters, clerks,
bookkeepers and mechanics are re-
sponsible for heavy percentage of the
trade in real literature. e.-Philadelphia

Argentine Insects That Devour Each Other

Freely In Times of Fashion.
In an assemblage of many criclseta
kept for certain observations in a rear
ing drawer or box, the numbers dimin.
ished from day to day; at last only one
the side of the remains of his former
companions.
Hitherto cannibalism among the
crickets has been noticed only among
captives. but am now enabled to state
that under certain conditions canni.
balism is present among some orthop.
terra in the free state, 1T all events
among the locusts.
In the summer of 1883. in which the
excessive heat and drought had brought
about the nearly entire disappearance
of the vegetation in good part of the
country, and more particularly in the
broken country of Banda Oriental. I
had occasion to make journey from
San Jose to Mercedes. At one place,
Las Piedras, at which the diligence
stopped, / noticed great numbers of
locusts of the species Pezotetix vittiger,
Pezotetix maculipennis and Pezotetix
arrogans, which covered the ground
| and rocks
My attention was attracted by the
fact of seeing around one locust num-
ber of other individuals of the
same species, which were eating its
soft parts even while IL was yet alive
and protesting vigorously. saw diff.
ferent attacks, in which the conquer
ors, two or three at time. got hold of
the weaker members of their own kind,
throwing them over and opening the
abdomen in order to devour the en-,
trails, these being the softer and more
savory portions. since they still con.
tanned some OF the vegetable food. Can,
nibalisn here appeared in it's lowest
development, and the numerous re-
mains of those which had been eaten
