HAMBURG DOCKERS STRIKE
Extends to The Employees OF the Grain
Warehouses;
New York Knights of Labor Make Com
plant That Labor Is Disregarded
in Choosing Grand Jurors.

HAMBURG. Nov 29.--The great
strike here has extended to the employees
of the grain warehouses. The lockers
at Lehe. Bremerhaven. Geestemunde
and Nordenhaven have decided to refuse
to unload vessels sent to be discharged
at the lower Weser points on account of
the strike.
The Hamburger Nachrichten appeals
to the Hamburg Athletic associations
members to act as lockers in the emer-
gency presented by the strike, and so
prevent the ruin of the trade of the
town.
The Vorwaerts declares the shipowners
have appealed to the government to
send marines to take the places of the
strikers. The stock lockers and ware
house unions have decided to refuse to
discharge the cargoes of Hamburg ves-
sells which have been loaded by nom
union men.
IMPERIAL INTEREST.
LONDON, Nov. 30.-A Hamburg dis
patch to the Chronicle says: The enl-

ton here, and has daily reports of the

the secretary of state for the interior, is
believed to be in communication with
the Hamburg senate, with a view to ar
ranging compromise. The ship own
ers, however, refuse TO submit to arbi-
tration.
DISSATISFIED KNIGHTS.
NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-As the out
come of considerable discussion by the
Knights of Labor as to the general
makeup of the grand jury, a long COM
munication was sent to the mayor and
the board of grand jury commissioners
today by District Assembly 94 Knights
of Labor. 1t is claimed by those who
represent the X. of l.. that the grand
jury is made up almost entirely of men,
bers of the chamber of commerce, and
that the laboring man is entirely disre-
garded; that not twentieth part of the
grand jurors are selected from the resi-
Dental portions of this city. For this
and many other reasons, it is argued
that the panel of the grand jury should
be reconstructed. The petition will be
placed before the board of grand jury
commissioners ta its annual meeting
tomorrow.

ANIMAL KINDERGARTENS.

1t will be noticed that all creatures
which have large families, whether
beasts or birds, have less trouble in rear
ing them than those having only one
or two young. Little pigs are weeks
ahead of calves in intelligence, and the
young partridge, with it's dozen brothers
and sisters, is far more teachable than
the young eagle. There seems to be no
doubt that the latter is taught to fly by
it's parents. A correspondent informs
the writer that he has watched the old
birds so engaged, and the young eagles
reluctantly follow them to height.
Specialized education in animals be-
gins late. The beaver kittens training
does not begin until the autumn of the
year in which it was born. The old beav
ers, which have moved up tributary
streams into the woods, or roamed to the
larger lakes during summer, then re-
turn to inspect their dam and repair it
for the winter They then cut down a
few trees, and dividing them into logs,
roll them or tow them to the dam. The
kittens meantime are put on to what in
a workshop would be called soft job" !"
They cut all the small branches and
twigs into lengths, and do their share of
light transport service. In the mud
patting and repairing of the dam the
beaver kittens take their share, but
there is little doubt they do so because
their elders are so engaged. 1t is kim
dergarten of the best kind, because mud
patting and stick-cutting are a great joy
and solace to old beavers as well as
young ones, and so instruction, plea sure
and business are all combined. Young
otters, and probably also young water
rats. have to be taught to go into the
water. According to the observations of
Mr.. Hart, the late head keeper at the
Zoo, the young otters born there did not
enter the water for weeks, and even then
their mother had to mind" them and
fetch them out when she thought they
had had enough of it, They swim ma
turally when once in the water,and this
seems true of all animals, though in the
early autumn Of this year young re-
triever, bred on a dry and waterless dis
trict in the Downs, was found to be un-
able to swim. A stick was thrown into
the Thames for it to fetch. 1t plunged
in, but soon sank and though rescued,
was almost insensible.-London Specta-
