THE EARLIEST STRIKE.

It is often asserted that the labor
strike as such does not date back
further than Captain Boycott in
the early part Of this century. As
a matter of fact the earliest strike
dates back to about 1850 B. c., or
upward of thirty-three centuries
ago. Pharaoh was building a new
Temple of Thebes. The masons
received very little cash, but a
quantity of provisions which the
contractor thought sufficient was
handed to them ON the first of each
months. Sufficient or not, they
mostly ate it before the time had
elapsed. On one occasion many of
them had nothing left quite early
in the month, SO they marched to
the contractors house, before which
they squatted and refused to bulge
until justice was done. The con-
tractor persuaded them to lay their
distress before Pharaoh, who was
about to visit the works, and he
gave them a handsome supply Of
corn, and 50 all went well for that
month. But the same state of
things required but the men de-
clined to do a stroke until they
were given another supply of food.
They declared the clerks cheated
them, used false weights, and so
forth, familiar enough complaints
in this country, under the truck
system. The contractor not com.
plying with their demands, they
marched to the governor of the city.
to lay their grievances before him,
and he tried to get them to work
by smooth words, but that was no
use, and they insisted ON having
food. At last, to get rid of them,
he drew up an order for corn on
the public granary, and the strike
was at an end.--C0iIiSy'S Weekly

THE BRAVEST ARE THE
TENDEREST.

In popular magazine was re-
lated, not many months ago, an in
cident illustrating the tenderness of
Abraham Lincoln. While paying
Grant visit at his head quarters
at Corinth, Miss, he became much
attached to three kittens he found
there, and when leaving he gave
orders that they should be kindly
treated. 1t is conceded now by all
that Lincoln was kind to every
thing and everybody. He was so
much inclined to pardon soldiers
for violation of army rules that his
cabinet advisers often became i'm
patient with him. 1t was a quail
ty of his kindness that he could be
as tender toward his enemies as to
his friends. 1t was due to, this
fact that his death was almost as
much lamented at the South as at
the North. In this trait of Mr..
Lincoln's character shines forth the
true greatness of the martyred pres
ident.
The great and brave are always
kind. The little and cowardlys are
sure to be cruel. A man displays
cruelty by whipping horses, and 9

REGULARITY PAYS.
Practice That Is Not to
BE Comm ded.

Have a regular hour for feeding the
hens, and promptly appear on the scene
with the feed at that time. Give moth
ing in the intervals between these hours.
We have seen it advised % keep n pail
of grain in the poultry house from
which a handful may be taken and
scattered on the floor every time the
place is entered. The theory is that it
has tanning effect upon the hens. and
inspires confidence in and affection for
the owner.
When this is done, however, the hens
will always be petitioning for food when
the owner is in sight. They will tumble
off the nesting boxes at the first sound
of his footsteps, and will crowd up
against the wire in a state Of excited
expectancy whenever he nears the
house or yard. The hens will be more
quiet and contented if they are given 20
understand that there are regular feed
ing times and they can expect nothing
between the hours appointed for that
purpose. They will devote themselves

NOTES FROM OUR NATIONS

fully to try to upset the administra-
tion programme of hanging up in the
Senate the Nicaragua Canal bill,
which passed the House with only a
handful of adverse votes. He fully
realizes the difficulties of the task.
butts confident that there are enough
Republicans in the Senate who believe
with the Democrats in an American
canal TO bring success. Time will
soon tell, but as Senator Tillman said
a short time ago, the Republican
party bas the best organization any
party has ever had in Congress, and
although there are at times splutter-
ing and kicking, in the end the orders
of the boss are usually carried out to
the letter. In this case, the order is
to hang up the Nicaragua Canal
Bill.
Another play was made in the ad-
ministration's game with England,
when Secretary Hay and the British
Ambassador signed a new agreement
extending the time within which the
two governments may exchange rat
itication of the Canal treaty, now
hung up in the Senate, seven months
from the 9TH of next August, which
was the limit set by the last agree
ment. Unless Senators eat their
words, that treaty will not be ratified
by the Senate, as at present made up.
The decision of U. S. Judge
Lochren, at st. Paul, Mimi, that
the L. S. Constitution was extended
to Porto Rico on the day that the
terms of the treaty of peace with
Spain went into effect, has greatly
disturbed administration circles, fore
shadowing,. as it does, a similar decis-
ion on the part of the U. S. Supreme
Court when an opportunity is offered.
If the power and influence of the ad-
ministration can prevent it, no op-
portunity will be given the Supreme
Court to pass on the question until
after the Presidential election.
