BISHOP PorTER,s STRANGE WORDS

Bishop Potter, Of New York. in a re-
cent public address is reported to have
said that the great causes Of the gem
eral ill-feeling and uneasiness among
tho l;.boring classes in the United
States may be divided into two classes
machinery and the manner IN
which the capitalist looks down
upon the men who labor for him. The
chief Of these, continued the Bishop, IS
machinery. 1t IS doing away with in
telligence in labor, and is turning the
laborlng man into simple idiot.
We are not surprised when probes
sional agitator makes such statements
as this. but as coming from a man Of
Bishop Potter's standing it IS absolute
~ amazing In the first place, ma
chinery. 50 far from converting the Ia
boring man into an idiot. is great
factor in industrial education, ana in the
hands Of an intelligent man, machinery
Is a power which enables him to use mis-
plies the capacity Of the laboring man.
and makes him a brain worker instead
of mere machine. But suppose that
this Is not true; suppose that machinery
is doing what Bishop Potter says. what
is he going TO do about it? Does ne pro-
pose to destroy machinery. and If so.
where will he begin and where Will ne
end? In other words giving the Bishop
credit for entire sincerity, We can see
no possible good 10 come from what ne
has said. BY such talk as this, ne
simply makes the laboring man more
dissatisfied with his lot Machinery IS
here. and instead of there being less OF
it. there will be more Of it as the years
30 by. 1t can do no good TO attempt
to prejudice the working man against #.
But. as If this were not enough, the
Bishop declares that the master OF to-day
looks down rpon his men; treats them
as though they had no souls; never gives
them a chance to rise. We do not know
how il is in sections where the Bishop
visits. but that is certainly not iar
representation Of affairs in the South.
There never was a day in this section
when the laboring man was moro highly
respected. The tin bucket and the suit
Of overalls are badges of honor rather
than otherwise, and there is a dignity
10 labor such as it never knew in days
that are past. The .aboring man III
this section is not looked down upon; on
the contrary. he is respected, and treated
with respect, and he has equal chance
with bis follow-man n other stations OF
life TO rise as high as his abilities can
carry him.

SCIENTISTS FOOLED BY AN OWL.

SCIENTISTS FOOLED BY AN OWL.
In one Of the many glass cases In the
Smithsonian Institution at Washington
Is a stuffed owl. This particular owl Is
the one, In the words Of late President
HAYES. "that Jared the Washington
monument" and therein lies the story.
During the centennial year Congress
resolved to provide the necessary funds
for the completion OF the monument,
which up to that time had been worked
at only while the several smaller appro-
priations lasted. IL was discovered,
however, that the original foundation
was likely TO prove incapable OF sustain
ing the enormous weight Of marble nee
essary for carrying the shaft 800 feet
above terra firma. a new foundation
was therefore needed, and architects
thought solid concrete bed 100 feet In
thickness would accomplish the strength
ening desired.
During the operation OF replacing the
old foundation IL was considered expe-
dent to provide means for noting care
fully the slightest vibration Of the walls,
lest the monument might be in danger
of collspsing. Accordingly heavy
weight was suspended by stout thread
from the apex to pan OF thick syrup
located in the base, SO that no chance
drafts Of air would be likely to sway the
weight. An ingenious contrivance was
so attached to the weight that the slight
est vibration Of the shaft would be faith
fully recorded, and its insecurity would
at once be an established fact.
One morning, few months after these
careful precautions had been taken, there
was q great commotion among the work
men. A complete record Of numerous
perturbations and tremblings had been
written on the index showing conclusive
" that the mammoth obelisk had Jared,
swayed and settled during the night.
Scientific heads were obviously shaken.
After much persuasion one Of the men
finally consented to 90 to the top and
examine into the cause. The astOnish-
ing report came into the midst OF the
anxious throng below that an owl, In
seeking shelter in the lofty tower, had
somehow managed to catch Its wings In
the thread, and was still hanging there,
suspended In the interior of the monu-
ment, and the innumerable hsppings
and struggles of his owlship had all been
recorded by the index as testimony
against the stability Of plumb-laid marble
blocks and solid concrete.-Philadelphia
