The strike of the Great Northern EN-
ployees, which has completely paralyzed
the whole system for the past two weeks,
was brought to an end Wednesday by
President Hill and the worknen agree
ing to submit the question OF wages upon
which the men struck, to The arbitrament
OF Il committee OF business men OF the
twin cities The strike WAS one OF the
most thorough ever inangurated and
completely tied up the business Of the
road. The sympathy OF the public was
generally with the men, as it is believed
the cuts in wages which had been made
were not absolutely necessary, particu
larly when tue pay OF the men had been
brought below what would allow OF u
fair ST andard Of living.

INSTINCT AND REASON.

Professor MOh0n Relates o Striking
Observation with Some Boss.
A few years ago the person who
might give utterance to the idea that
any but human beings possessed
reasoning powers would have been
considered guilty of rank heresy. But
with advanced enlightenment there
are thousands who have been driven
TO the belief that the creator has
not bestowed the s'divine light" upon
man alone, but upon animals as we'll.
even insects coming in for share OF
that force which is q grade higher
than instinct, says tho Philadelphia
Ledger.
Close observers are continually
making public examples which show
that that class of animal life which
has been designated as 1.-The lower
orders" when c)mpared with human
kind accomplish results the work
ing out of which can scarcely be
ascribed to instinct alone. This
reasoning faculty is especially notice
able among dogs, while many other
animals evidence power OF thought,
of ability to reason, really remark
abe. In q communication to the
| Academy OF Natural Science some
time ago Professor Mehan related ar
instance that came under his owl
observation, which, while not con
elusive evidence of reasoning power
in insects, yet is strongly indicative
of it. During light spring shower
the professor took shelter under 1
large linden tree in full bloom.
While there he noticed an unusu
ally large number of bees at wOrl
among the flowers of the linden
while tree of another species close
at hand. also In bloom, had no bee
about it. The reason was Quickl!
apparent to him The deserted tre'
was light foliage, and the rail
poured through it freely. while th'
linden had heavy foliage and in sucl
abundance that the rain was shet
almost as perfectly as from an um
brella The bees were evidentl
aware Of this, for they came and wen
directly two and from the linden. ig
noriug the other tree entirely.
He assumed. and seemingly col
rectly, that this could not be purel
instinct, out was the result OF reas
oning. OF a lower order, perhaps, bu
still a line above an inward In
pulse, unconscious and involuntary
which guides to the performance I
an action without thought of in
provement in the method"
