CHICAGO, Dec. 8.-John B. Jersey to.
day confessed that he, with Edward Jor.
dan, murdered A. D. Barnes, whose mu.
,ilatsd body was found In the French ship
ping case yesterday. Both Jersey and
Jordan are under arrest. They were en-.
ployes Of Barnes, and the motive for the
crime 10 thought to have been . rivalry
between Jordan and Barnes for the chief
janitorship OF the Hiawatha building,
which position the murdered man held,
Jordan beinR first assistant. Jordan has
exhibited remarkable coolness through.
out. having been the first to identify the
body.
Jersey said Jordan, on the aiteruooH q
the murder, gave him sonfe money, told
him to get few drinks and be back to
work at o'clock that night. When he re.
appeared Jordan asked him to carry out
the shipping case, and SO dong. some
blood from the bog ran out into Jerseys
sleeves. He asked Jordan what that
meant, and the latter told him that there
was dead man in tho box and be had
better keep quiet. Badly scared, Jersey
kept silent until the terrors Of tho ssweat
boz" wrung the story from him.

Whoever said. Laugh and the world

alone" was indeed wise, for no truer
sentiment was ever written. There lie
nothing so certain to make You disliked
as to tell your troubles to friends. Pros
perity means friendship. You are well
come everywhere. The world laughs at
your witty sayings and makes merry
with you. There comes a time when
you are downhearted and fortune ceases
to smile ON You, and you look for sym
pathy from the dear friends who have
shared your prosperity; but, alasl you
look in vain, and there are some who
kindly vote you a bore. People prefer
amusement, and the sight of q forlorn
countenapce Is not pleasant. The best
thing, when you can force yourself to ii,
is cheerfulness. It is q great tonic. 1t is

st. Paul Pioneer Press, 10: There
could DO no better evidence Of the ap-
p~roaching collapse OF the strike than the
frantic appeals OF Debs to the other Ia
Dor organizations to come to his aid in a
general walk-out. just how that would
help the strike or the strikers no one has
pretended to explain. 1t would deprive
80 many more men of employment, wild
en- by SO much the area OF misery and
want, and retard by 80 much the return
OF that prosperity for which the country
has been so long waiting. But it would
help the strike just as stopping all the
wheels Of commerce and industry along
$4,000 miles Of railroad has helped. II
would add new fuel TO the flames OF pop
ular indignation which are being kindled
in every city and village in the West,
aud would put organized labor that
should lend itself TO this conspiracy
against public rights and private inter.
ests under a ban Of public opprobrium
from which it should not recover for
many u day. The A. r. u. has done
enough mischief already to the Aus OF
organized labor by the follies and crimes
il, has committed IN its name. The wis.,
est thing which organized labor nj do

in pursuance OF that wicked law, to raise
the hand OF violence and rebellion
