French Mothers.

There is nothing more touching
and noble in the world than the
intimacy between a French moth
er and daugh ter-the mother Civ
ing to her daughter all her time,
all her thoughts, moulding her
with infinite devotion, living for
her alone, writes Tn. Benton in
the April Ladies' Home Journal.
She accompanies her to her lessons,
directs her reading, watches day
and night to guard the ideal puri-
ty which by a singular incense
quence will be sacrificed, ninety
chances out OF a hundred, to man
whose life will have been quite
the contrary. The mother cannot
reform marriage as it exists in
France-it is an institution full Of
defects-but she can teach to her
daughter all the virtues to meet
the sorrows which almost certain
ly await her.

Colered Wharfmen on Strike.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 23.-All the
colored wharfmen in the city are on a
strike, and their places have been filled
with convicts. The wharfmen demanded
an increase in wages from Is to 20 cents
an hour, and the demand was refused by
two competing lines. Opportunities have
been given the strikers to return to work
at the old figures, but all Overtures have
been rejected. The steamboatmen claim
that they are not able to meet the de-
mand Of the strikers. The strikers claim
that they only average about three days
a week. The impression prevails that the
strikers will soon return to work at the
old rate.

Action of the House.

WASHINGTON, May There is
to be no Coxey talk in the house of
representatives if those who direct
the course oflegislation can prevent
it, and they think they can. 1t has
been appreciated that an inham-
matory debate might readily be
started in the house as an adjunct to
the Coxey demonstration outside,
and care has been taken to cut off
the possibility Of such a discussion.
The house leaders feel that such
course is imperative in order to
avoid congressional encouragement
to the movement.
Resolutions which may be sub
mitted bearing on Coxey's bills, {
the treatment of Coxey's men, or
hearings for Coxey's delegations,
will be prmptly referred to commit
tees without debate. Once in com,
mittee, there is no likelihood Of the
measures emerging until the qpes-
ton subsidies Neither will the
house leaders construct any Cdxey
resolution as embracing a question
Of privilege, permittingit to be de
bated without reference to commit
tee. BY these means the house will
proceed with its regular business as
though the Coxey demonstration
had not occurred. The only means
by which reference to Coxey can
be crowded into the debate will be
by the injection of a Coxey speech
into the debate on one of the pend
ing appropriation bills. Events
will be discouraged and if possible,
prevented, and at the most an inject
ed speech can accomplish nothing.

KNOXVILLE, May IA special
to the Tribune received at s O'Clock
from Coal Creek states that the
miners in all the mines at Coal
Creek have quit work, except in
the Goa! CreeI, Coal Company 5
mines, and that this will quit today.
The striking miners dislike wy
much the idea OF the conyicts turn.
ing out from twelve to eighteen
cars of coal a day while they are
on a strike. There is considerable
talk among some that an attempt
will be made to release the convicts.
This report is generally discrcditcd
here, being considered improbable
unless the strike lasts so long that
the coal supply of the other com
panles gives out and the convicts
aine enough coal to fill the orders,
giving them all to the Knoxville
Iron Company. In this instance
they would likely be influenced by
the operators to turn the con,icts
loose.
The strikers spent the day yes
terday playing ball and cards.
The miners at Jellico are jubilant
