The strikers in New England are

The strikers in New England are
wise enough to know that their cause
will suffer for every riotous proceed
ing which grows out of the present
strike. Unfortunately, psychologists
who have studied the emotions of en-
thusiastic assemblages have conclud-
cd that the judgments and actions Of a
crowd are in many instances of a de-
cidedly lower order than the average
of the individual intelligences possess
ed by those in the crowd. This ac
counts for great many unpleasant
mob actions.

worthy CD head of nearly every house

looms which are everywhere in evi-
dence These saloons are the curse
of this fair state from its northern to
the southern limit. A pastor lately
remarked, ct have found in travelling
over this state more people who have
at one time been rich but now are
poor, than in any other part Of the
Union l have ever visited. Why is
this? Because the people are living
beyond their means. In earlier days,
money was easily earned and as easily
spent; today the children Of these
early inhabitants do not know how
to economize0 We feel safe in
prophesying that the day is not far
distant when the now scorned penny
will be gladly received as a medium
of value.

More enthusiastic still Is the report Of
Miriam +. Witherspoon, General Secretary
of the Associated Charities OF Worcester

great value, as n medicine, OF DIR. Grecne's
Nervura and its marvellous powers 90 cure
disease and restore health TO the people.
| She says:-
Sin my work s. Is neral Secretary Of
Charities in Worcester, have distributed
DIR. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
lremedy among the needy poor and sick,
and it has been received with thankfuness
and great JOY. One poor woman said she
had been trying 20 save money enough to
buy bottle, and when she found ] was TO
give her one, her JOY and gratitude were
great.
In all cases the results have been as
we hoped for, building up the feeble, ner-
vous, overworked and underfed people
who have in general no helper. As far as
my experience goes it has been a reaL~
blessing. M. f. WITHERsPooN,

In view of the figures for recent
years Of births and deaths in France,
showing that deaths have exceeded
births in numbers, and that the popu-
lation has been diminishing. the sta
tistics for 1896, which have just been
made public, have been awaited with
great interest. The births in that
year exceeded the deaths by the re-
spectacle figure of $4,000. The gain
is accounted for not only by a de-
crease in the deaths-that is, pro-
longation of life-but principally by
birth rate, 2.27 per thousand, is the
considerable increase in the num-
Der of births. Nevertheless, the
smallest in any civilized nation of
the earth. The average birth rate of
Europe is 38 per thousand. The stu
alton in France is SO alarming that
the publicists are fain to accept as
satisfactory the same figures about,
that troubled them SO much in 1891
that is, total number of births of
S65, 1856, compared with S66,377 deaths
in that year.-Ercha1age

4 correspondent OF the Chicago Rec
ord. writing from Siboney before the
capture OF Santiago, gives the follow
ing description OF the Spanish prison
ers:
There are 100 at least of the late
defenders OF Santiago buddicd up
within a four-strand bnrb-wlre inclos-
ure n few hundred yards from the hos
pital. and the number Is increasing
hourly. They are beginning to come In

n day. whereas within the city or In
Its defensive trenches they might get
one meal aud they might not, while II
they tnkc to the woods there the Gu
bans await Them cheerfully anxious to
carve them into little pieces.
They are little men and 1.-the for the
most part. these Spanish prisoners,
with closely cropped hair and skins
varying from light olive tint to je,
black. for there nrc many negroes
among them. Their hats are OF conrse
straw ornnncnicd by a dingy cock
ade OF red and yellow. and their uni
form consists Of blue and white
striped blouse and trousers OF light
cotton material. Many OF them are
without shoes, and their uniforms are
generally ragged and dirty.
a company OF the Thir,y-thlrd Mich
igan Is keeping watch and ward over
them. but their task seems to be an
easy one, and the sentrles yawn drow-
silly as they pace to and fro. There
may be some In the lounging. hopeless
looking crowd who would like TO make
n bold dash for liberty, but 1t is
doubtful II there are.
They seem to regard the stalwart
proportions OF the Michigan men with
simple wonder. 1T IL no marvel that
you succeed" they tell Them; you are
SO big" SO, too. they compare the
American horses with the little fox
terriers their own cavalry bestride.
and again they find justification for
their position.
Generally the prisoners seem con
tent to lie baskIng In the sun. though
that IL hardly a matter OF choice. for
there is no shade In their 100 feet
square OF space for them TO lie in.
Some OF them are stretched out on
their backs. their hnis Tilted over their
eyes. sleeping so sOundly that the long
bodied. agile ants. scnrrying and dods-
ing about over their faces, hardly
make the muscles twitch.
One or two groups have packs of
cards--qunint, gnyiy painted paste
boards OF unrecognizablc suits, with
full length figures in baggy breeches
and flowing gowns for the pictures.
They play for coffee beans, and some
OF the iucky gamblers have won
enough for brewing -veritable pots"
but there are apparently no funny
situations In the game and no exulta-
