LOND0N's STRIKE.
Workmen Say that Poles, Huns and Other
Foreigners DESTROYED Unionism in America.

The engineers on strike at London
have won the cordial support of the
trades union congress. now meeting at
Birmingham, and the struggle will
continue exceptionally stubborn and
hard fought. The supposed labor stu
alton in America Is being cited as an
example or a warning, according to
the point of view.
English manufacturers claim that
in Pittsburg and other American CEN
ters of industry the thraldom of
unionism" has been shaken off: that
the employers are entirely independ-
ent of the workers and are better off
In consequence.
In England the so-called solidarity
Of labor" and right to organize has
been generally admitted and the urg
ing of american methods" has acted
on the unions like a red rag on bull.
They reply that where unionism has
been beaten in America it has been
done by the employment of Poles,
Huns and other foreigners, and that
the scheme will never work in Eng
land.
The ninth week of the engineers
struggle in London leaves $4,000 en-
gineers 1900 trades unionists, 1000
nom -unionists and 5000 laborers out Of
work. with strike pay amounting to
$165,000 per week. New firms depend
ent on engineering are stopping work
daily and some of the locomotive man
ufacturers have posted notices as fol-
lows:
Eight hours day, with the present
rate of wages. would be disastrous to
the locomotive trade of England, in
the face of American and Continental
competition We therefore feel II our
duty to counsel the men to refrain
from any encouragement or support of

Famine in ireland.

The Daily Nation" after getting a
letter from every pastor of parish in
rural Ireland, says: Since black AZ,
the Irish laborer has never faced a
winter more full of privation." The
harvest is as bad as can be in the west
of Ireland. and II Is pretty sure there
will be not only a food but a fuel
famine. Not only are the potatoes
rotting in the ground, with the grain
crops beaten down by rain and not
worth reaping; but the turf cut will
not dry. Unless there is exceptional
weather within the next few days
a famine Is certainty.

Failure and Success.

The line between failure and success is
so fine that we scarcely know when we
pass it-so fine that we are often on the
line and do not know it. How many a
man has thrown up his hands at time
when little more effort, little more
patience, would have achieved success.
In business sometimes the outlook may
seem darkest when really things are on
the turn. y little more persistence, a
little more effort, and what seemed hope
less failure may turn to glorious success.
The IS no failure except in no longer
tryin no defeat except from within; no
really insurmountable barrier save our
own inherent weakness of purpose.

When cultured Athens, arts historic flower,
Too softly nurtured to retain her power,
Yielded her treasures to harbaric war,
Like gilded galleon reft on rocky shore;
Rude Roman soldiers spoiled her sacred shrines
And drained from priceless cups their common
wines.
Over her choicest gems quarrelled and fought,
And found in purest art but sensual thought.
Thus ever will the coarse untutored mind
Degrade Gods santliest gifts to beauty blind
Drag from their holy haunts things pure and
chaste,
And all the wealth of garnered wisdom waste,
And even stain where high it shines above
The lofty lustre of ennoblinS love.

A SOURCE OF SURPRISE


DR.. Redmond, a specialistin tho study and
treatment Of Piles and rectal diseases, re-
Gently stated that the Pyramid Pile Cure.
the new discovery for the cure Of piles, was
the most remarkable remedy he had over
seen or tried in ono respect; aud chat was,
the instant relief experienced in all cases,
no matter how severe, from tho moment the
remedy was applied this WIS the more sur
prising TO him, because he had carefully am
aly2od the preparation and no trace Of OPT
um, cocaine OF similar poison could be de-
tcctod.
p sicians look with great favor upon the
PyrIuid Pile Cure, because it is rapidly
taking the place Of surgical operations and
because it is so simple, SO easily applied and
contains no mineral or other poisons so COM
monty used in pile cures.
DIR Esterbrook reports that the Pyramid
Pile Cure not only cures the various forms
of piles, but never fails to give immediate
relief ON the first application no matter how
severe the pain or discomfort may De.
People who have suffered from piles for
years are often astmnished at the instant re-
lief experienced from the FIRST application.
Another important advantage is the fact
that anyone can use the remedy without de-
tention from business or interference with
daily occupation.
Mr.. J. w. Rollins of Sweet Springs, Mo,
writes: 1 consider the Pyramid Pile Cure

popularity is such, that all druggists now
