An important Labor Report

The re cent report Of the federal De-
paitment of Labor covering the history
strikes for the last twenty years con-
tradicts tie common impression tha.
strikes are more frequent in periods 81
industrial depression. 1t sustains the
contention that they are growing more
numerous during prosperous times and
in proportion to the development of new
industries. In 50 per cent. OF the dis
pntes of the last two decades the en-
ployees were successful; but, it is ints-
resting to add, tbs does not hold good
of coal strikes, which have resulted ia
vorably to the miners to the extent OF
only 20 per cen.
An IS innate OF the comparative los
ses sustained by employers ard elnpo-
yees respectively during twenty years
is unfavolable to the lalter, whose wage
loss was S257 900 ooo as compared with
$I22 ooo.ooo lost by the employers.
This, of course, is not lii some respec, S
an adequate statement, as 1t takes no
account OF the greater ability of the en-
ployer to meet losses without being Grip
pied. AT the same time the sums paid
by labor organizations during this Pc
Rod to strikers, which reached a total
of $Io,ooo,coo, will be henceiorih contri-
buted more literally by reason of the
increasing resources of these organiza-
tions.
Such are the main facts of this i'm
portant report, which does not, however,
furnish more than probable conclusions,
the length OF time covered not being
great enough to furnish data for formu-
latipg economic laws, aud the develop
ment OF industry being in transition
stage of the most important character,
considerably obscuring and confusing
the phenomena to be observed. The
function of the Department af Labor in
collecting material is, nevertheless, in
dispensable to a knowledge of strikes,
and further record will in all probabi-
ity supply the decisive evidence to set
tie some important doubtful points. Ii
is established beyond doubt that no
other country has so complex and vari
ed field for statistical investigation of
this kind.

Our Soldiers
Self-Restraint
In The Philippines.

Tha, our soldiers in the Philippines
have taken in good part and observe
strictly the Presidents injunction in
regard to tie duty of self-control under
extreme provocation. is suggested by
the interesting narrative of Lieut.. l1a-
milton Foley of the Fifth Cavalry, who
has lust returned from service. 1t
seems that a cavalry detachment sent
to the rescue of five captured American
soldiers suddenly came upon their hor-
ribly mutilated bodies. The lnd1gna-
tion and impulse for revenge naturally
excited by such sight were height
ened in this case by the fact that the
search had been baffled by the decep--
cion and lies of the villagers who had
been que oned, and especially by the
presidente OF the town, in whose house,
it was afterward discovered, the unfor-
tunate five had been ca ing dinner.
The truth might have been forcad from
these people if the wafer care had been
resorted to, bat the troops, needing the
orders at headquarters. restrained them
selves.
The men who had murdered the
Americans were caHght on an ai-lloS-
inaccessible mountain, an old-tinle re-
sort for robbers and ladrones. They
were held without injury and handed
over to the civil authorities. 1t will be
generally admitted that mora ex-
asperating trial Of patience ard fol-
bearance could hardly be conceived
and that the humanity and discipline
which marked the whole pursuit and
capture reflect The highest credit upon
the morale of the soldiers. There is
no need of considering this as an tN-
cep.ional case. Insufficient reserve on
the part OF some officers in issuing com
mands may have had lamentable conse
quences in cases which have been much
discussed; but, in vieH Of slanderouS
assertions in some quarters, it IS due t.
our army in the Philippines to empha-
size instances like that related b. Lieut.
Foley.

U A N COLT.
The Story of a Purchase That
earned the Boy Much Teasing.

Fhe story of a Purchase That
earned the Boy Much Teasing.
When Ulysses S. Grant was a small
boy living in Georgetown, O., he want
ed, like most boys, to own a horse,
and one particular colt belonging to a
man named Ralston he wished espe-
cially to have. To indulge the boys
tast. and buy the colt his father Of
fered Mr.. Ralston $50, but the owner
valued the colt at $25 and refused the
offer, taking the animal home with
him.
AS the hours passed after the little
horse had trotted away with it's owner
Ulysses disappointment and eagerness
for possession increased, and he final
ly begged his father to pay the $50 de-
manded. His father said that $50 was
all the animal was worth. but since
Ulysses desired it so much he might
30 to Mr.. Ralston and offer 500 again.
If. his father added, he could not buy
it for 500. he might offer $3.50. and II
the owner would not let it go for S22.5o
he might, in order to obtain it, give $50.
Ulysses therefore mounted a horse
and set out for Mr.. RalstJn's. He was
at that time probably about eight years
old.
When he found the owner, he told
him, Papa says l may offer you $50
for the colt, but if you won't take that
to offer you $3.50, and if you won't
take that to give you $25."
The eagerness Of the boy to gain the
horse could not brook any barrier. 1t
is needless to say that he paid $25 and
led the animal home.
Grant said, in writing his memoirs,
that the story of this purchase OF his
got out in the village and it was long
before he heard the last of it. The
%schoolboys delighted in teasing him
about it; schoolboys are very often
little barbarians for ~tormenting one
another, and they did not let Ulysses
forget this one instance when be was
behind the rest in c~leverness.
= He kept the horse for several years
and finally sold it for $50, the poor
animal having become blind. Later
he found it taken from the road and
working the tread wheel of a ferryboat
which piled between the Ohio and
Kentucky banks of the Ohio river.

THE PERPETUAL LIGHT.

Remarkable Lamp In Louisiana
That Never Goes Out.
1.-The most remarkable lamp in this
section Of the country said a man

coast to the New Orleans Times-Dem-
ocrat, sis to be found in the water area
between Lake Borgne and Mississippi
sound in a lonely, desolate, isolated
spot, where the fall of human feet and
the dip Of oars are heard only four
times a year.
'sThe light is some distance this side
of Bay st. Louis and is a little south
of Chinchuba. It stands away out in
the marsh, but can be seen from the
Louisville and Nashville railroad. 1t
burns all the time. day sand night.
year in and year out It fickers away
for the benefit Of the mariners who
frequent these waters. 1t is the Per-
petual hight. The sum-, the moon and
stars may come and go, but the light
which shines out in the dismal marsh
is always the same. 1t is the one
bright thing in a rather dismal stretch
Of country. Seaweeds grow wild and
rank in that region The land, such
as one may see from a railroad train,
is a fiat and ~treeless waste. 1t is with
out any cheerful aspect, low. gloomy,
overhung by miaslnatic mist and a per-
feet prairie of wild and matted+weeds
of the kind which flourish in marshy
regions. It is threaded by sluggish
arms of water.
"Once every three months this lamp
is visited by a human being. 1t is
filed with oil, trimmed up and put in
condition to burn for three months
longer. Thus it is visited four times 6
year. 1t is situated SO that the winds
cannot put it out. 1t renders goot
service, never explodes, never goes out
never gets DINNER or brighter, bu
burns with the same steady power al
the time, 1t has earned the name O
the Perpetual light" s.
