Oddities:
On one occasion 4 family OF five came
over to spend the day with us. They
marched in silently in single file. and,
upon reaching the house: made directly
for the hammock, remsrking to me: This
is nice swing the first one ever seed
like it.
From that time forth, during the entire
day. the solemn creaking OF the hammock
could be heard without cessation. None
OF them had ever seen q train, o steam
boat, or telegraph wires.
Once, my hair becoming loosened, u
hairpin dropped to the floor. and was
eagerly clutched by one OF tho sun-burn

her, found out that this was the fret
one she had ever seen. II was only tn
ordinary wire hair pin. Noticing that her
hair was tucked up, ! inquired how she
held 1t in place, then she showed me an
immense spike-like affair, made out OF the
heavy wire that is used for fences; II was
very rusty, and had been rudeIy hammer
ed into shape by Que Of her brothers.
Coming in the room. | found them all
clustered Ground looking ylsss. viewing
with astonishment their startled eounten
ancee. Certainly in this instsnce. "where
ignorance is bliss lis folly to be wise"
One Of the girls wanted to borrow my

influence OF either comb or brush,
One little barefooted fellow, who was

LABOR TROUBLES AT HAVANA
A General Strike To-Day Now
Seems Inevitable.

HAVANA, Sept. 25.-In spite of the
leaders, general strike tomorrow
seems inevitable. The only union that
has not decided to join is the Cart
mems Union, but it is expected that
the cartmen will go with the rest.
The strikers are confident of win
ming. They say they have withstood
a blockade of three months duration,
and after that there is nothing to fear
A manifesto has been issued by the
General Committee. calling upon all
to help the movement. The various
laundry establishments are closed, and
it is impossible to get laundry work
done-a very serious matter at Havana
1t is not known how long the strikers
can hold out. They say that even if
they lose they will have struck a blow
in the right direction. The closing of
the laundry establishments is a verita-
BILE godsend to the drygoods stores, as
people are literally driven to buy extra
linen Senior Lacoste, the Mayor, is
endeavoring to protect some of the
laundries with view to keeping them
in operation, but it is impossible to
extend this protection to anything like
an indefinite number
1t is probable that Havana to-mor-
row will be without bread, owing to
the bakers strike.

Grievances of Street Railway Eln-
pIoyes at Cincinnati

CINCINNATI, Sept. %. = A commit
tee consisting of Rosin Orr of Detroit,
Secretary of the Amalgamated Associa-
ton of Street Railway Employees, and
several street railway employees, called
on President John Kilgour to-day and
presented demands for 20 cents per
hour, ten hours per day, stools for no.
tormen to use at certain points, arbi-
tration previous to discharges and 9TH
er matters, and the reinstatement of
all discharged since September 20th,
when system of examinations was in
stituted.
President Kilgour refused to receive
officially any except the employees, and
he would not treat with them as a
committee of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation, of which a chapter has recent
ly been instituted here.
President Kilgour said he would re-
ceive committees of employees any time,
and present their grievances to the Di-
rectors, but he would not recognize a
committee of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation or any representative of it.
The gentlemen left Kilgour's Office for
secret conference, and there are ap-
prenensions of a general strike.

had been so fatal to France.
Senator Arthur Ranc, Republican
Radical, who is the President of the
Association of Republican Journalists.
also extolled the deceased, by whom.
he said, the greatest error had been
repaired and the fair fame of France
saved.
