AMERICAS GREATEST DEADHEAD.-
''The Postmaster General Of the United
States has at his command greater
number of railway mileages free of cost
than, perhaps, any man in the world"
said L. n. 1insley, railway passenger
conductor at the Laclede yesterday.
"My ignorance of this came very near
ly costing me my job few years ago.
Cover in Illinois one midnight the
through train, of which | had charge,
was tagged at little way-station, and
a red-taced man climbed aboard the
front passenger coach. The stopping
of nv train at that hour of the night
made me mad to begin with, and was
in no good humor when approached
my new passenger to collect his fare.
Then when he showed at me a much
handled piece Of pasteboard, signed by
the Postmaster General and COM
handing in imperious language that
the holder be carried free Of charge on
all trains carrying United States mails,
| lost my temper completely. was so
mad that / would listen to no eXplana-
ton from him, because | considered
him either train robber or an impos-
tor, and made him pay his fare in the
coin of the realm, for which gave him
receipt.

thorities and the railway people came
down on me like thousand of brick. |
learned from them that my midnight
passenger was a postofiice inspector,
and that every man in this service is
provided with a card from the Post
master, commanding the conductors
of all railroad trains which car
ry mail to pass the bearer free.
The name of no railroad COM
rany or official appears on the card,
but the holder of it can travel on any
road in the United States as far as he
wants to 60 without paying a cent

The Great Coal Strike.

The great bituminous coal strike
which began on April 81 has reached
that stage where vast business interests
in many States are crippled seriously.
Fully $4,000 miners are idle in IA
States and two Territories. About III
0)0 miners are at work.
Not only have the miners begun to
suffer privation, provoking them to riot
in several States, chiefly Illinois, Penn
sylvania ard Alabama, but railroads,
mills and even Office buildings have
been so affected that thousands Of other
men are without work. and the business
world, especially in the central West,
sees before it an immediate struggle for
existence.
Within week The stock of btumin-
Gus coal on hand will probably be ex
hausted. 1t is doubtful if this country
ever experienced so large ard so i'm
portant strike. If not settled soon its
effects must be far reaching.
Already the earnings of the railroads,
notably in Pennsylvania, have been re-
duced most seriously: and soon the car
rying capacity of the roads will be i'm
paired. The miners will not yield,
they say, until q uniform rate OF 10
cents ton is established throughout
the country. Many, and perhaps a ma
jority, of the operators were willing to
give this, but they have not been able
to come to such an agreement, and an
other conference is to be held in Spring
field, Ill.,, to-day Little is expected
from it.
Violence in Illinois and Alabama has
been of such a character that State
troops have been ordered out, and are
now in active service. Gov Pattison, Of
Pennsylvania, on Saturday addressed
the mas, meeting at Houlzdale and eau
toned the men against violence, so that
he will not feel it necessary to order out
the troops. The spirit of riot seems to
be abating, but fear of serious trouble
has not yet been dissipated. The ope-
rators of the Clearfield district in Penn
sylvania will hold a meeting in Phila-
delphia and decide upon the strike
question. The strikers will not make
an outbreak until they hear the result
Of this meeting, or whether the opera
tors will agree to Gov. Pattison's plan
of arbitration.
Three hundred striking miners cap
tured passenger train on the Illinois
Valley and Northern Branch of the
Chicago and Quincy Railroad at Laid,
Ill.,, Saturday. The trainmen by ruse
induced the miners to get off at Peru,
where they were captured by State
troops. The miners were all Belgians
unable to speak English.
Gov. Waite, of Colorado, called out
the State troops to suppress the trou-
bles at Cripple Creek growing out of
the miners strike. A fight occurred
Saturday, in which two men were killed.
1t now appears that nobody was killed
by the explosion at the Strong mine on
Friday. Judge Hallot in the .. S.
Court, at Denver, refused to grant an
injunction to restrain the Colorado
striking miners from interfering with
the Rosen mines at Cripple Creek. The
judge said that if the State government
had fallen into the hands of socialists it
was their misfortune.

A FABLE OF Two BRoTHERs-A certain
man was hanged, that he died. And he left
two sons honest men.
Now, one of the sons was a blacksmith.
But the other became a physician
And after that their father had been taken
from them, these brothers made their homes
in other lands
And the blacksmith would have prospcrcd.
But it befcll that one asked him how his
father made end And the blacksmith, look
ing angrily upon him. answered. He was
hung For tho blacksmith was an honest
man.
Howbcit, presently, when a horse was miss
ing, men gathered and hanged the black
smith. saying: This man must take after
his father So the blacksmith did take after
his father: but whether he caught up with
him the tale tclcth not.
And at the same time, in his own city, one
inquired of the physician by what means his
father died And the physician covered his
face and wcpt.
But whilst he wept he considered, saying
within himself: IF say, he was hanged,
then shall l shock this man and give him
psin; and it is my Office 10 relieve pain.
Nevertheless, l must tell tho truth"
He aaid, therefore "My father died of
heart failure" And again he wcpt, the
queationer weeping with him.
Then this being told, men said Doubt
less, since his father died of heart failure,
this good physician and loving son hath made
study of kindred diseases" So they rcsortcd
unto him.
And the physician became specialist. And
he looked at them who came and coughed
once and sneezed twice and demanded 500.
And they gave gladly. For the physician was
an honest man.

A GENERAL dispatch sent out from
Washington says the President, on his
recent pleasure trip to the North Caro-
lima sounds, on government vessels, bore
the whole expense, and paid full rates
for himself and party For his own
sake it is hoped this statement is true,
for the President draws a larger salary
from the government than any OF its
other officials, and therefore has even
less ground for putting it to further
expense on his own account than any
body else. Then, too, he is sworn not
only to compel others to observe the
law, but to obey it himself in letter
and spirit, and no body, under the
law, can, with or without pay, press
two government vessels-the Maple
aud the Violet-into service for him
self and party for pleasure trip; nor
is there any law authorizing the exac-
ton or receipt of pay for any such SER
vice.

A New YORK republican newspaper
says unrestricted male suffrage, as a
means of securing good government at
the least possible cost, "has nowhere
fully answered the expectations Of its
best friends. Well, hardly. Why it
not only fails to secure good govern
ment, but it utterly and entirely fails
even to represent the will of the body
polite, of those who support the govern
ment in peace and defend it in war.
Vox populi, viz del may have been true
in the earlier and better days OF the
country, when every man in 1t had
some material interest in its welfare,
but it is entirely different now. But,
all the same, the republican party says
every negro in the South must vote,
though he may have no idea of what
he is voting for, and no conceivable in
terest in the effect of his vote

A Pleasant Entertainment.


A Pleasant Entertainment.
The Forget-me-not circle of the
Kings Daughters League gave very
pleasant entertainment at the home OF
Mr. Henry Elliott on south Washington
street last Friday evening. The pro-
gramme consisted OF tableaux, music
and Rotations; these were participated
in by the members of the above circle.
A pleasant and enjoyable evening was
spent by all who were fortunate enough
to have been invited. Below is q dog
gerel written by one present.
Twas May. the month of flowers,
The moon was in the east;
When right merry company
Made Kings Daughters feast.
The room was richly bedecked
With flowers fresh and gay:
And every ore WIS for fun
At close Of lovely dag.
Scenes of beauty passed before,
Actors ncer looked sweeter;
Sixteen summers and no more,
Nor could time he ceter.
MluSt tniS very pleasant CIohu'
The c;ty's fair were seen;
With fine beauX, who spoke and bowed,
To mothers dear, wcen.
Before close of the evening,
The hat was passed around
To gather together the quarters
Which made jingling sound.
In all were fourteen dollars.
For sweet charity's sake.
To make some souls much happier,
At morn when they shall wake.
Good reading and good singing
Many tablcauX 50 gay,
Made it hard for the party
To tear themselves away.
They thanked them for their presence.
As well their aid, they said:
And with pleasant memories,
They hurried oil TO bed.
