CUNNANE ISSUES STATEMENT.

New Bedford. Mass. March H.-Presi-
dent Cunnane of the Weavcrs union has
issued the following statement relative
TO the fines question: The impression
appears TO have gone abroad that the
weaVers took an unwise course in re-
jecting the propositions drawn up by me
as solution of the finine system, mas
much as 1t afterwards transpired that
the treasurers were ready to accept them
in a slightly modified form. In the first
place 1 wish it clearly 10 be understood
that l believe the weaVers are more
capable OF understanding their own
business-in knowing what is good and
what IL bad for them-than can any
similar number of other persons who are
not weaVers: and in the second place
wish il to be clearly understood that
there is no similarity between my
propositions (Which the mill 'treasurers
would not accept and the propositions
submitted by the treasurers
MY propositions Were, briefly: First,
n reprimand or a discharge; second. a
fine and discharge ii so required; third.
If the weaver was still retained there was
10 be no more fines; fourth the manu-
facturers at all times to be able to re-
cover by law damages 10 CLOTH the dam
ages not TO extend beyondGhe whole OF
the price paid for weaving; fifth, an
agreement to be signed by manufac-
turer and weaver. to hold good one year;
sixth, no new agreement TO be made until
the expiration Of one year from the date
OF the original agreement. The PROPOSE
tions OF the manufacturers were, briefly:
First, reprimand or a discharge; sec
ond, fine Ito be repeater upon any and
every occasion when the manufacturer
thought fiD, and discharge If so desired;
third, the manufactured TO have power
TO recover damages as stated above
fourth, an agreement to be signed by
weaver and manufacturer. the agree
ment TO hold good during the employ
ment of the weaver.
Clauses one and two Of both proposi-
tions read exactly alike. and in them the
manufacturer or overseer is given the
grading of cloth without dispute. Clause
three in my proposition put an end to
flning. There is no such clause in the
propositions of the manufacturers.
Clause four of the first and clause three
OF the second set of propositions also read
fourth in the second set read alike with
the exception of the closing words. My
proposition made the agreement binding
for one year; the manufacturers made
the agreement, practically speaking.
binding during the pleasure of the en-
ployer. In clause elk I proposed that
the manufacturer make no new agree
ment within the year. The absence of a
similar clause in the manufacturers
propositions left him open to fresh agree
ments whenever he so chose.
In plain English the propositions of
the manufacturers were a continuation
of the present system, only more so. for.

Going to War In . Landau.

About 80 hacks had been seized in the
streets Of Salonika, to be used as ambu.
lanoes. They went on our train and were
unloaded at Sorovitoh, where we left the
cars. 1t was suggested that we lend our
horses to the officers and ride in these
carriages, SO it fell out that for the first
time in the history Of our craft perhaps
we rod to wal in a landau and through
provinces in which landaus themselves
were curiosities. The adventure reads
better than it felt, for the way was over
100 to 1870 miles of rough and rocky road,
under a broiling sun. 1t was most tire
some to sit cramped up in an old fashioned
carriage for 10 or IA hours every day, and
1t was too hot to walk.
Ours was a caravan Of the most modern
sort, threading the most primitive corner
Of Europe. With our mounted officers
and soldiers, baggage wagons and carts
laden with hay, baggage and clothing, we
made a long, dark line upon the white
and glaring road-a line that brought the
country folk to the edges of the hills and

How many Americans appreciate 5,..s
grandeur Of their country's geography?
How many know that there is no river
system on earth which ever distantly ooll-
pares with that Of the Mississippi and It's
tributari1sS
The census tells us that these rivers, all
flowing through ne channel into the gulf
Of Mexico. aggregate more than 100000
miles in lspgth. Tho Amazon, the Nile,
the Gangea and all the rest Of the great
river systems on earth put together scarce.
" approach this magnificent showing.
Think OF It! A steamboat leaving Pitts
burg can visit 90 states without passing
through any artificial channel. 1t can go
up the Allegheny and Monongahela, the
Big Sandy, the Kentucky, the Wabash, the
Tennessee and the Cumberland-clear in
to Alabama-before reaching the mouth
of the Ohio.
Below Cairo it can traverse not only the
Mississippi, but the st. Francois, tho Ar
kansas, the White, tho Red, the Yazoo, the
Tallahatohee, the Yalobusha, the Ouachita,
the great bayous and all the tributaries of
these streams.
Above Cairo lie the upper Mississippi,
the Illinois, the Missouri, tho Yellowstone,
tho Platte, the Big Horn and a score of
tributaries to all these. The supposititious
steamboat can land at /, 1850 towns and
cities on it's way.
These rivers drain an area of 1858, 800
square miles, occupied by q population of
24,298, 1872 in 1890.
The Of this great river system
was carried on in 1889 by 1853 vessels,

CHINESE GORDON.
The Story a Bishop Told About the Fla.
nous English General.

nous English General.
The bishop of Tasmania in ono of his
sermons told Il story which brings out the
character of a man whom all the world
learned to respect-for a wonder before he
died. The bishop-so says The Sunday
Magazinc-was indebted for the story to n
Clergyman who had spent some years in
GAIA, Palestine.
Ont night this Clergyman was coming
home late, II in tho dusk CT the evening
when objects were not very distinct he saw
what looked like a man knecling on tho
ground by the side of his horse. The place
was not a safe one. Arabs might eusily
surprise the kneeling traveller.
II must go and warn that man,
thought the clergyman. sit will never do
to let him remain there. He does not
know that he may get Into trouble"
AS he came nearer to put his resolution
into practice he was stopped by words
that evidently were not addressed to him
self. A moments listening convinced him
it was the voice of prayer to which he lis
tened.
"Oh. my God, take me away out Of my
self, lest ! fall; make me to look unto thee,
that I may humble myself and be like
thee!'' said the voice of the kneeling man.
The clergyman hesitatcd to interrupt
the strangers devotions, but he could not
persuade himself to leave him in danger.
After waiting for a time he approached,
saying as he did SO, "Sir, I bog your par
don, but you are in danger here"
The man rose, and the cl%ergylnan's sur
prise was great when he found himself
standing face to face with General Cor
don.
"What are you doing out hero in this
dangerous placer" he asked, not yet recov-
cred from his establishment.
"This morning I received a telegram
from England asking me to undertake a
mission which I had longed to undertake
all my life" replied the general. sit filled
me with such citation that I felt I might
get into trouble through pride, and I
thought ! would just get upon my horse
and go away by myself to humble myself
before God"
It was thus that the noble heart Of Cor
don met one of the great trials of character
the honor Of being chosen to lead in an
important enterprise.
II believe" said the bishop, 'that the
mission Of which he. spoke was the one in
which he was employed when death met
him.

He Afterward Rose to BE President Of
tile United States.
During the political campaign Of 1856
James Buchanan, the Democratic nominee
for the presidency, paid a visit to MERGERS
burg, Pa, his native place, where he was
received with the cry, "Hurrah for Uncle
Jtmmie!" He stopped with the late Dr..
Schaf, then a professor in the theological
seminary, and Mrs. Schaf, anxious about
the dinner, gave special instructions to her
colored cook, emphasizing them by the re-
mark chat the guest might become presi-
dent of the United States. "Well, missus,"
placidly answered the cook, II guess he
amt God Almighty, is her"
The father Of Buchanan, the fifteenth
president, was IN immigrant from north
ern Ireland, and in the latter part Of the
eighteenth century built two log cabins
three miles from Mercersburg, to serve as
q trading post for the Indians and the set.
tiers In that sparsely settled region. When
James was n little boy, his mother, busy
at the counter of tho store and with house,
hold cares, used to tie q bell around his
neck that he might not got beyond her
hearing. The motherly device gave rise to
the story-ono of the traditions of the
neighborhood-of "Jamie and the boll,''
which DR.. Schaff shortly after tho inau-
guration of Mr.. Buchanan told to u Sunday
school at Carlisle. Tho incident, after
ward enormously told of James G. Blaine
when he was a candidate for the presi-
1ency, is thus narrated in tho address,
which wo copy from the "Life of Philip
Schaff," by his son:
"Three miles from tho town (Mercers-
burg) where l live a little boy was born in
the mountains whose name was Jamie.
When he was 4 or s years Of age, his good
mother, afraid that she should lose her
Irish boy amid the rocks and bushes, tied
a little bell around his neck, that she
might know If he were near by or far of.
This was 'little Jamie with a bell around
his neck
"When the boy was 8 years old, his IA
ther moved to the town where I live.
There he studied Latin and Greek, and
when he was II his father brought him to
this big town Of yours, and to this big
ed. This is little Jamie with a bell around
his neck
"At 81 he was admitted as q lawyer in
Lancaster; then was sent to Harrisburg to
the legislature, then to congress at Wash
ington; then he was sent to Russia and
then to England to represent this great
government of ours before kings and rul-
ers of the great powers of the world. All
this was 'littlo Jamie with q boil around
his neck And now where is little jamie
today? He is at Washington in the presi-
dontial chair, the chief magistrate of this
great American nation. This is little
Jamie with a bell around his neck.'"
