Is the Labor Problem SolvedP

One of the most remarkable, as we'll
a. plausible solutions, Of the contest
between capital and labor has been
suggested by distinguished representa-
tives Of conflicting interests, and, for
wonder, all have agreed upon a plan
81 action for settlement OF such differ
ences by arbitration, and have taken
the preliminary steps for its Inaugural
ton without the slightest element OF
discord appearing to re;ard or distract
the object sought.
All such movements must have
some beginning, or motive, to attract
support, and in this instance there
seems to have been sponteniety Of
sentiment as remarkable as it was pa
cific and cordial, and there has been
no disturbing element in the organiza-
ton so far as it has been effected.
When those who were shaping the
movement met in executive session,
last week, it was under contemplation
to appoint an arbitration committee
of q members, to consist of nine each
representing capital, labor and those
who stood on neutral ground between
the two contending forces. This board
was afterwards increased to IL men
representing each interest as named,
or 36 in all, and the personnel is as
follows:

An INTERNATIONAL ALPHABET.-Rep-
resentative Cushman has introduced a
bill directing the President to request
the other nations to appoint number
of their most distinguished scholars to
attend an international conference for
the purpose of agreeing upon and
adopting an international alphabet OF
printed characters representing vocal
sounds that are common to all Ian
guages. 1t is claimed that this will
be great aid to students acquiring
other languages than their own, for in
all cases a new alphabet has to be
mastered, which is the most difficult
part of the task. 1t is thought that
with this aid means for information.
al communication will be provided
that will greatly aid the transaction
Of foreign commerce; that it will sim.
plify the acquisition of languages
that it will establish an universal pro-
nunciation of geographic names; that
it will establish high standard of Or
biography, and provide coordinate
elementary system for the English Ian.
guage for schools. The project is one
that will inevitably result in great ben
eft if our neighbors of different dia-
lects take enough interest in the mat
ter and come prepared to make the
English sound-method the basis of
mutual intercourse.

Is It Malign Planetary Influence ?

The unusual meteorological condi-
tions that have prevailed everywhere,
on sea or land, the past two months,
have caused much surmise ard CON-
ment, from the fact that intelligent
people always connect effect with
cause, and by course of reasoning, a
priori. very generally arrive at sat-
sifactory solution of many Of Ma
lures mysteries.
This unprecedented severity of storm
the past and present month over large
area of the old and new world, is very
generally thought to have some philo-
sophical controlling cause, as we'll as
the climatic conditions which are
doubtless accountable for the terrible
famines in India, China, Russia, and
destitution in many other parts of the
world.
Many years ago theorists, in looking
over the pages of history, made the
discovery that planetary influence had
much to do with the veal or woe OF
the inhabitants of earth. 1t was not
ed that when the great planets were in
conjunction, a train of disasters in the
form of pestilence, storm and flood
invariably accompanied it. Many au'
thentic instances of this coincidence
while unexplainable on any known
scientific principles. command respect
full consideration from their inevitable
recurrence. The great planets Jupiter
and Saturn, and the lesser orbs Venus
and Mars. are now approximately in
line, and observation teaches that the
same malign influence that has &C.
companied such juxtaposition should
be expected as we have it now. Venus
and Jupiter were in line Nov. 18th,
and the beautiful emblem of love
passed under the smile of Saturn on
the 10Th of the same month. Jupiter
and Saturn were in conjunction about
week later, Mars was in line with
Jupiter on the 18th of this month and
with Saturn on the 18th. These
planets are now on their retrograde
and will not again be in exactly the
same relative position for many cen
turtles.
Let as hope that with their passing
will cease all the unusual causes for
worriment of mankind.

A VICTIM TO ScIENCE.-Miss Emma
King. of New York, has allowed her.
self 10 be inoculated with the germ oil
tuberculosis taken from . COW 10
which the disease was we'll defined.
That she 10 now afflicted with the
dread disease, as . result, disproves
the claim OF DR.. Koch, the German
bacteriologist, that tuberculosis in the
lower animals and human beings was
. separate and distinct disease and not
communicable from one to the other.
The doctors are now making an effort
to cure Miss King, and-if they fail she
will have only the satisfaction of hav.
ing performed q philanthropic deed
which will redouble the efforts made
TO prevent infection from cattle. The
experiment is rendered the more con.
elusive from the fact that the COW
from which the germs were taken to
inoculate Miss King, had contracted
the disease from germs from a man
afflicted with the disease.
