WORK AND WORKERS..

Anumber of strikers formerly employed ID
the service of the Chicago and Grand Trunk
Railroad applied for work, which the oliici"''
of the road refused to give them.
FRANK FEEGAN Richard Morrissey, Daniei
Griffin, Ed. Reeder and Andy Reitz, was ar
rested at st. Paul. Mimi, charged with tue
assault on the Milwaukee train few nlghS
ago.
BYa unanimous vote East Chicago Branch
No. 169 A.. R. U, has decided 10 cal! the strike
off on the Chicago and Cllumet Terminal
Railway. and there is every assurance that
all the old men will be given their places by
the company.
Arst. Paul. Minn.. the Omaha shops open
ed for work with S5 men, and will soon have
a full force at work. All the A. r. U. men
were anxious to get back, but the company
is taking in only such individuals as they
choose. This ends all signs OF the strike on
the Omaha line.
The wages Of the men employed in the ham
department OF Armours packing house at
Chicago was reduced 10 cents per day. Ihey
asked for return Of the old wages, which
was refused, and they were told they might
strike if they wanted to. 1t is not believed
that they will do so.
MAYOR STEPHENS, of East st. Louis, at the
request OF the Business Mems meeting. which
was held several days ago, has addressed
| .tter to the managers of the various rail-
roads which centre in st. Louis, asking them
t. take back old employees who lost their po-
sitions during the strike.
MERCHANTS of Port Huron (Mich. }, are pro-
testing against the discharge OF Grand
Trunk employees who took part in the strike.
Tney estimate that $4,000 has beeh spent
with them monthly by local employees OF the
road. The officers will be formally asked to
reinstate the men. Otherwise the merchants
threaten to boycott the road.

GHOSTS.
BY ozIAs MIDSUMMER.


The thought "moy be Will-o'the-Wisp' snook
AS ire-fiies thence few about mid the trees
And thoughts O; ghosts, goblins and demons
end these
Arrayed for j ( or a whrl
So fill d Jossph's mind with q s,nse OF dsmay,
As in the deep darkness that followed the day,
He pIuncel in the blackuess that lay in his way
Toward home from seeing his girl
That church in the hollow and mill on the hull,
Thoagh peaceful and quiet, deserted and still,
Caused Up and Joseph to wander or chill,
As lonely hey stood in the nj hit
Caused him to UnpCcke rusty old Dlade
And pucker his lips till a whistle they made
Then many shrin lass blow, as though not
If demons came on for q fight.
Yea, caused him to pray and forget Mollie dear,
For lust then he saw white specter appear
Which waved its white arms as it came to him
near
And seemed to say, "Now I've got you"
He bowed 10 the Garth in a son of prayer,
Remen1 bered the wrongs he had done every
where,
Expecting to die in his boots then and there,
And feeling contemptibly blue
But JOSEF still lives for the specter passed by,
As at his prone figure it heaved deep sigh
At thinking he'd gone to the sweet by-and-by,
His mother would never know bow.
Then below O / Vol, in lamentabl9 woe
Which voice spite his frenzy Joseph seemed to
know,
Tor seen bv the light of the fire-fies' glow,
The ghost was his mother white COW.
