CHICAGO, Aug l6.-The strike commits
sioners appointed by President Cleveland
to investigate the Pullman and railroad
strike began work yesterday. The sessions
were held in the government building in
court room and attracted many specta-
tors. Vice President S. w. Howard of
the American Railway union, was called
Ns the first witness.
"Tell us what, in your opinion, caused
che railroad strikes" said Commissioners
Herman.
"The strikes were caused" answered
Mr.. Howard, "by the statement of the
general managers that they would back
up Mr. Pullman during the strike"
"Who told you that p
"The newspapers printed the statement,
crediting to General Managers Egan and
st. Johns"
Mr.. Howard then entered into an ex-
haustive recital of the troubles leading up
TO the Pullman strike. 1.-The General
Managers association" he said, refused
TO haul mail cars unless the Pullmans
were attached to the trains Such action
was entirely uncalled for. The Pullmans
were in no wise necessary for the trans
mission Of the United States mails. l can
cite various cases when mail trains were
run without Pullman coaches or other
palace car equipment"
WAS the action of your union in the
strike" asked Commissioner Wright,
merely for the protection of the interests
of the Pullman employesW
"No, not entirely, said Howard. 1.-THE
general managers had organized against
us, and we had to protect ourselves"
"Were you aware, asked Judge Worth
ington, THAT the railroads had contracts
with the Pullman company
"We were, and we were also aware that
those contracts were a violation of the in.
terstate law. They allowed the carrying
of none but Pullman sleepers and were a
direct discrimination against the Wag-
ner cars"
Mr.. Howard told the commissioners that
he had received a communication from
the state committee on safety telling of a
conversation between two rioters which
had been overheard. The conversation
was a dispute over money which the men
claimed to have received from General
Manager Egan for overturning and burn.
ing railroad cars during the strike He
reluctantly admitted that the fact that
lawless men frequently seize the oppor
tunity to riot during labor troubles is an
argument against strikers
Mr.. Howard was followed by General
Master Workman Sovereign, of the
Knights Of Labor who described the
A. r. U. and the X. of l.. as two divis
ions of one army"

NOW USE LACTATEO FOOD.
Healthy Babies ought to Gain Steadily
in Weight in August-FOur Things
Needed to Make Baby Thrive.

August for some babies is fearful
struggle for existence.
An infant needs pure air, proper food,
cleanliness and careful attention.
A healthy baby should gain steadily in
weight in August as well as in other
months.
When an infant has cut its first tooth
and does not thrive rs a healthy child
should; when it grows pale and fretful,
throws up its food in undigested masses,
the first thing the practiced doctor will
advise is lactated food
Experience, has shown that babies gain
most steadily in weight and size when put
on diet of lactated food.
The use of lactated food has made
cholera infantum and summer diarrhea
troubles no longer a matter of fear in
thousands Of homes.
Lactated food agrees with babies when
every other nutriment Is refused After
a day or two the puny child put on diet
Of lactated food shows decided gain in
vigor and liveliness and there soon fol-
lows a rapid increase in weight and size.
Lactated food is 80 absolutely free from
any possibility of contamination and is
80 rich in everything that bone body and
muscle need to grow on that babies reg
ularly fed on lactated food develop in
every limb and part in way that de-
lights the heart and eyes Of mothers.
Keep lactated food steadily at hand.
IL will remove the anxiety of summer
diarrhea and dangerous weakness.

SECRETARY CARLISLE recently trans
mitted to the house recommendation
laid before him by Mr.. Worthington
C. Ford, the chief of the bureau of
statistics of the treasury department,
contemplating the publication Of a
statistical abstract for foreign coun-
tries. The suggestion of Mr.. Ford is
prompted by the fact that at present
many inquiries are addressed to the
bureau for statistics bearing upon the
commerce, industry and general eco
nomic factors of European and other
foreign countries. These inquiries,
which already make a considerable
demand upon the clerical force Of the
bureau, are constantly increasing in
number, and will doubtless continue
to increase. To meet this demand
Chief Ford suggests the preparation OF
a statistical abstract for foreign coun-
tries modelled upon much the same
plan as the existing statistical abstract
of the United States, and to be pub.
lished annually. Mr.. Ford refers
to the fact that other govern
ments, such as those of Eng
land and France, have found similar
compilations of high public service.

The Piazza.

There are numberless simple ways
of adding to the comfort of the piazza,
chief among which are suitable screens
to modify the light, and the most
durable as well as artistic of these are
the bamboo shades, which sell from
81 up, and which are easily adjusted,
as they work upon pulleys. Home
made ones of awning cloth fastened
to spring rollers such as ara used in
shop windows, if put up with suitable
fixtures, will also be found convenient,
as they may be raised or lowered at
will, and are less heavy than those of
bamboo For the furnishings one or
more Japanese cotton rugs will be
found useful, and of course, ham
mock or two, with air pillows and a
pretty knotted blanket are indispens-
able. A rattan sofa and good-sized
center table, if space will permit, will
be great convenience, and plenty of
easy chairs and cushions all serve to
tempt to outdoor living. Wooden
boxes filed with growing plants and
vines set upon the ratings are pleas
ing addition, and it is said that they
help to keep away insects; and pal ms
and cut flowers all help to give the
effect of a summer drawing-room. 1t
is becoming quite the custom to have
these pleasant outdoor rooms glazed
in winter, and to continue the life in
the sunshine begun in warm weather.
Afternoon tea is served here as in
summer.
Many city residents condemned to
summer in town fit up a space on
the house-top, where the hot even
ings are spent in great comfort Tho
chief expense of such an arrangement
is the awning, which is necessary on
account of the dampness. 1t must be
securely fastened and made adjusta-

Ways of shaking Hands.

Almost every one has an individuai
and original method of shaking hands.
unless they are followers of fashion
and have adopted the pump handle
shake, which was originated by the
prince of Wales when that royal
parsonage was suffering from boil
under the arm, which necessitated the
awkward movement.
There is the rough but kindly dis
posed individual who takes your poor
paddy with the grip of iron, and in
the desire to show good will and
friendship almost wrenches the fingers
off and leaves the marks of sundry
ring indentations on the crushed
digits. This painful mode, though
trying to the last degree, is prefer
able to that mean, supercilious and
patronizing method employed by in
dividuals who are of the ''holier- than
thou" order.
This shake, or rather contact, only
consists in offering the very tips of
the fingers, accompanied by an air of
condescetion that makes you long to
forget your breeding and pull your
hand away. There is no heart in such
greeting; it means selfishness; it
proclaims personal vanity and it is
quite as repellant as the frosty nod
that some people consider bow.
The cold and clammy hand-shake is
one that once met with leaves the inn
preston that snake has reposed for
a moment in your palm. The fingers,
lifeless as those of marble image,
writhe into your clasp, and chilly
sensation in the region of your spine
warns you that the human monster
has laid his claws upon you. 1t is
never we'll to trust that hand shaker
An honest, pleasant grasp-a hold
Eng of the hands for brief space of
time-a sense of warmth, sympathy
and good fellowship, is what the gem
uine hand-clasp ought to induce, but
how many of this sort do you meet in
the great world so full of artifcia!ity
and caprice?

Something for BABY.

The dantiest gift that has yeti come
to the newest baby on the block is
that of a pillow-case and coverlet The
latter is in the form of an enlarged
pillow-case of fine, white linen, with
n pad or comforter of cheesecloth,
filed with perfumed cotton batting to
slip inside. This pad is tackled after
the manner of the cheesecloth ba by
wrappers, but with fine white silk in
stead of colored wool or silk. After it
is slipped in place it is closed with
small pearl buttons: all around the
cover is ruffie of white lace. Baby's
monogram, which in this case, is a
particularly pretty one, is worked in
the center; around this is a wreath of
small forget-me-nots, while clusters
of the flowers are scattered over the
rest of the surface. The wreath, as
well as the smaller ones that ador n
the little FELLOWSHIP, is tied with a
love-knot of ribbon, with floating
ends embroidered in pale pink and
blue. A small down pillow completes
the charming gift.

ALONE.

Alone when the day Is dawning.
Alone when the night dews fall:
Under the veil at the bridal.
Under the gloom at the pail,
Behind impenetrable barriers
To work out its life OF dole,
From its first faint cry till the hour TO die
Is the doom Of each mortal soul
First tender thought OF the mother
Who brings US forth In pain,
AS she looks In the eyes OF her offspring
Some clew to its soul to gain,
"Of what Is my baby thinkinv
With that gaze intent and wise"
But ever remains the mvste:y,
And never voice replies.
Alone is the child In his sorrow
Over the broken toy:
Alone is the stricken lover,
Mourning q vanished Joy:
Alone is the bride at the altar,
Alone the'bridegroom stands,
With his hidden life between them,
That-and their plighted hands
Alone lies the wife, with the canker
or blighted hope In her heart;
Alone IS the husband dreaming,
or baked ambitions smart
And so from the birth to the burial
From the first TO the latest breath:
In crowded streets. on lonely sleeps,
The soul goes alone till death

The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1894-06-02

In all ATTITUDES south Of New York
almost all danger of frost is past BY
the last week in April 1t Is then
time to make ready for the putting
out of plants of all sorts. says New
York Ledger. Garden beds should be
prepared with an abundance of fer
tilizer and tender ANIMALS may be
sown. For this 1t is good plan to
prepare litter of light straw or some
boards to cover the ground at night
and on cool days This makes 1T pos
sible to plant seeds at least week
earlier than would otherwise be safe,
and the plants get SO much farther ad-
vanced.
There is another advantage in this,
which is that the weeds can be kept
down much more easily II the work is
begun very early in the season. When
seeds are sown late the weeds have q
chance to get well established befor g
the tender seedlings show above
ground; in pulling the weeds then, 1t Is
almost certain that many of the plants
will be uprooted. With rare and val
liable varieties this is quite an import
and item. and one not to be overlooked
even by the amateur.
In the training of vines it Is impor-
tant to provide supports at once.
Many plants seem to. forget how to
climb If they are not supported when
they first start to Irvine, therefore
some little twig should be put out
as soon as they shoot up from the
ground.
In putting out large vines such as
the cobea, passion vine and similar
climbers bit of poultry netting is the
very best possible support. Started
early in the season and protected until
fully established, two or three cobeas
will entirely shade porch or window,
but it is absolutely necessary that they
get an early start. Plants of this
kind, that are late in beginning a Wig
orous growth, rarely make it up dur
ing the season, but continue sort of
half-hearted existence, throwing out
few struggling shoots and seeming to
lack the vitality that is the charm of
the perfect climber.
Thrifty plants such as geraniums,
fuchsias, heliotrope, salvias and the
like may be cut for slips for mid-season
use. In warm, sunny corner, sink a
water-tight vessel of some sort, pan,
kettle or tub, fill it with sand, raise
the earth few inches above it, all
around, put in the cuttings, make the
earth very wet and lay single hot
bed sash over the raised-up earth, COW
ering the top entirely. In three or
four weeks the cuttings will be perfect
ly rooted and may be transplanted to
the border. A single thrifty geranium
would furnish score or more OF
healthy cuttings, and these judiciously
distributed in odd corners of the yard
would insure any quantity Of delicious
green until frost
Salvias are among the easiest of all
cuttings to root and will make the
garden brilliant with their long stalks
of scarlet flowers until the ground
freezes. 1t takes but a little work and
time to provide for these useful favor
lite flowers, and every householder who
has few square feet Of ground at
command may revel in this most de.
lfghtful panionship during the en-
tire season.
