She Ifntes Americnns.

Mrs. Linn Linton hates Americans, says
the New York Advertiser She married
one The doubtful felicity of being Mrs
Linn Unions husband belonged to the
gentle engraver, J. ID. Linton, a man of
delicacy and refinement She was his
second wife. To the exercise of her caus-
tic abilities as a wife, Mrs. Linton added
those of a Stepmother. These oppOrtu-
mites might reasonably have satisfied
her She took up her pen, and has since
occupied herself in the effort to casti-
safe all creation, beginning with her
husbands countrymen. \ woman of this
city met her last summer in a boarding
house in Wales. The American was dis
cussing the servant question with an Eng
lish woman, who was lamenting in the
usual way the decay of the old race of do
nestle servants. Mrs. Linton scented car
mage from the other side of the table, and
plunged into the conversation.
Yes" said she to the New York
woman, to whom she was a stranger. I'VE
owe it all to you Americans. You come
over here dissemina ting your ideas of
equality, and you have ruined the coun-
try. We have you TO thank that we have
no more peace in our homes. 1t serves
You right if you have to take the conse-
quences of your own pernicious doc
trines."
The astonished visitor looked across the
table It the irate female whose impor-
lance she subsequently learned, and at
tempted a mild justification. Mrs. Linton.
however, now had her hand in, and drop
ping the American proceeded to lay out
an unoffending Swede. Before the meal
was over she had half of the nationalities
Of Europe we!tering in their own gore.

Il is hardly probable that the arbitra-
tion bill that passed the House few
DAYS ago viii be passed by the Senate.
The Senate has no time to give to IT,
The bin. however. is likely 10 be intro
duced into the next congress. and by the
time that congress meets il may DC con-
s.dcred advisable to amend it In several
important particulars.
II is based upon suggestions made by
Commissioner Wright. who was one or
the three committeeman who investigated
the Chicago strike. The purpose Of IL
is 10 prevent strikes on railroads by ar
bitratng the difficulties that may arise
between interstate railroad companies
and their employees. Arbitration is to be
voluntary. hut If agreed TO the decision Of
the arbitrators must be accepted.
II this bin should become a law it
would not prevent strikes. In case Of
trouble it would almost always happen
that one or the other Of the parties TO the
difficulty would refuse to agree to arbi-
tratlon. In the great Chicago strike last
summer neither Mr.. Pullman nor the rail-
roads would consent TO an arbitration,
and i'm the recent strike Of the trolley line
employees in Brooklyn the trolley COM
panies steadily insisted there was nothing
to arbitrate it is fair TO assume, there
fore. that the pending DILL, If it should
become "a law, would not have the effect
of preventing strikes.
New York and New Jersey have arbi-
a#a q Ion owls
sioncrs. and in neither state have the
laws and commissioners been effective
I'm preventing strikes. In the New Jer-
sey legislature a bill is pending to abol-
ism the arbitration commission on the
ground that it costs the state a great
deal OF money and has never rendered
the public any service.
But it is evident that some way ought
10 be found to prevent strikes. which are
becoming more frequent and of larger
proportions. How would compulsory ar
bitration answer? 1t might be said that
is would be unjust. and that the law
making power has no right to force cor
porations or employees of corporations
TO submit to the decision Of a tribunal
that might be influenced by sympathy
for one or other of the parties to a diff
Guilty. The sympathy of an arbitration
commission would likely be with the en-
ployes of a corporation, which would
lead it to impose upon the corporation
unfair conditions. 1t is a notorious fact
that courts and juries lean towards
those who have differences with rail
roads.
The fact cannot be overlooked, how
ever. that the rights of the public are
of much more Importance than those Of
/ either of the parties to a strike. A rail
road strike DISCREPANCIES business and il
/ the cause Of much annoyance. The pub
lie therefore have a right TO demand Z
prompt settlement of the difficulties be
tween railroads and their employees, be
cause the railroads are, as a matter o
fact. the creatures of the state. From
the standpoint of the public good there
fore compulsory arbitration is to be com
mended Compulsory arbitration is tn
only kind Of arbitration that promises t
accomplish much in the settlement of la
Dor difficulties.

Lady Hutton Eyes.


When the busy day is done
And my weary little one
Rocketh gently to and fro;
When the night winds softly blow
And the cricl1ets in the glen
Chirp and chirp and chirp again;
When upon the haunted green
Fairies dance around their queen
Then from yonder misty skies
Cometh Lady Button-Eyes.
Through the murk and mist and gloan
To our quiet, coy home,
Where to singing, sweet and low,
Rocks a. cradle to and fro:
Where the clocks duh monotone
Telleth of the day that's done;
Where the moonbeams hover Ger
Playthings sleeping on the floor
Where my weary wee one lies
Cometh Lady Button-Eyes.
Cometh like a heeting ghost
From some distant eerie coast;
Never football can you hear
AS that spirit fareth near
Never whisper, never word
From that shadow queen is heard.
In ethereal raiment light,
From the realm of fay and sprite
In the depth of yOnder skies
Cometh Lady Button-Eyes.
Layeth she her hands upon
My dear weary little one,
And those white hands, overspread
Like veil the curly head,
Seen to fondle and CareSs
Every little sillSen tress:
Then she smoothes the eyelids down
over thoseIwo eyes of brown
In such soothing, tender wise
Cometh Lady Button-Eyes.
Dearest feel upon your brow
That caressing magic now;
For the crickets in the glen
Chirp and chirp and chirp again,
While upon the haunted green,
Fairies dance around their OfTPPn.
And moonbeams hover Ger
Playthings sleeping on the floor
Hush, my sweet! from yonder skies
Cometh Lady Button-Eyes.

The Arbitration ELL.
From the Philadelphia Record Dem

The arbitration bill passed by the House
TO facilitate the adjustment of disputes
between interstate carriers and their en-
plOyes would have one good result if 1t
, should induce labor ORGANIZATIONS TO be-
come Incorporated bodies, responsible for
the fulfilment of enga gements which they
might enter into and for the consequences
of acts which they might authorize to be
done. Responsibility would temper their
dealings with employers and the public.
1t would also give to the employers lit
tie or no excuse for a refusal to submit
questions that might be deemed arbitra BILE

A great many people and papers are dis
posed to ridicule the IDEA of John L. Sui
livan becoming a temperance lecturer. AS
a matter of fact. all that is needed to make
Sullivan one of the most powerful temper
ance lecturers that ever went upon a ros-
trum is his genuine reformation and en-
barking upon the adventure. He is a
man Of abundant horse sense. He is per-
fectly familiar with all of the wiles of the
drink demon. He knows the effect of
whisky drinking upon the physical consti-
tuition. He can. and would, talk of these
things in a manner to appeal irresistibly
TO the very class of people the temperance
folks most earnestly desire TO
reach and influence. Sullivan has
run his course as an athlete
and as prohisate; but if he were to turn
temperance lecturer in earnest ne would
still have an extraordinary career before
him. He would rival Francis Murphy at
y obtaining signatures to the pledge.

When the hill was under discussion in
congress il was computed that not more
than S0,0o0 persons in the whole union
would be amenable to the tax on incomes
exceeding $1,000 a year. But since then.
and in the light of Investigations made by
collectors in number of revenue dis
trcts, the estimate has been largely in
creased, and the figures now are that
something like 100000 persons will be re-
quired TO pay the income tax. We believe
the working of the law will make an eX-
traordinary exhibit Of the heretofore un-
taxed wealth of the country for federal

Cotton Prices.
From snringaeld CMassl Republiean Gnt

rom SPIlAsuelu N'Ad7a1 ANSPN'DliN@ii NiiiNi
Senator Hoar attributes the fall in the
price of cotton to the tariff act of 1894.
He knows, of course, that there was no
tariff on cotton to remove, and he must
be aware also that shrinkage of demand
from the mills has not been more pro-
nounced at home than abroad. And I'M
ally does the senator recall the fact that
cotton suffered a greater decline in price
from the year 1890 to and including the
year 1S92-whca the Mckinley act was in
full force and the Republican party In
pOWer-than it has suffered since?

Gold Exports ana the Bond syndi-
From the Philadelphia Press Rep).

The rate for sterling exchange was
again at the profitable gold exporting
point yesterday. but any fears OF gold
exports were allayed by the knowledge
that the gold selling syndicate were in
terested in keeping the rate high as a
part of the programme to protect the
treasury gold. OF course. in doing this
the syndicate is bound to see
that no gold goes out, and it is per-
fectly plain that their control of ex-
change is complete enough to dominate
the gold movement at the moment.
Whether the syndicate will be able TO re-
tain absolute control Of over the move
ment of gold is a matter which the fu-
ture will settle, but unless some new con-
tinsencies arise it is believed they Will
not only retain the power. but exercise it
in the interest Of the treasury gold bal
ance. The whole matter is of the future
and depends on so many happenings that
no, prediction can be made as to the Ill
innate result.

Mitchell of Oregon wants a bounty of 8

there is to be a bounty for everybody.
Why not let us all go down to the fed

The proposition to have a LeXow COM
mlttee for Philadelphia has been hung
up" in the Pennsylvania legislature, for
the reason that Senator Quays friends
in that body are fearful that the inquiry
would so too far and hit more people than
would be agreeable either to themselves
or the senator. Senator Quay is said 20
favor an investigation because he thinks
it would crush his enemy, David Mar
tin, the Bis republican boss in Philadel-
phia The staid and careful old Philadel-
phia Ledger is urging an investigation,
not for personal revenge like Senator Quay
but because there is a general belief that
the city councils have been run for jobbery
and spoils and some of the city depart
ments are rotten to the core. Inasmuch
as Senator quay controls the legislature
however, whether there will be an inves-
tigation or not depends on how much po-
litical capital Senator quay and his friends
can make one way or the other.

A Canadian metallurgist has succeeded
in tempering aluminium so as to give it
the consistency of iron. This is regarded
as a very important discovery, inasmuch
as it may lead TO the substitution of the
light metal for cannon and armor in the
place of iron and steel. The Canadian has
made and tempered an aluminium cannon
twenty-eight inches long by five inches in
diameter, which has been tested and found
effective by the Canadian government The
metal of the gun outside of the bore is
but quarter of an inch thick, and the
piece weighs only fourteen pounds yet a
great number of one-pound charges have
been fired from the little cannon without
leaving any appreciate effect upon it. An
iron cannon of similar caliber, to be enec-
tive, would have to weigh something like
$50 pounds. The little piece of ordnance
is said to have the appearance of bur
nished silver
