4 ticed eyes seemed very much, to the
/, public like the day which had preceded

/ parties OF wandering apostles OF plumber
going about TO warn laborers away from
! their work. But In the principal ave-
nues and In the public squares there
/. were the same dense crowds OF idlers,
| some listless and some excited, ready

! were not lacking: besides the agitators

Rott, who had quite distinguished him
SELF during the last few days, was not to
he seen. He had passed tho night In the
. oteth'oi iipuSet uuO, On DEIel eXaIuilu-
ton before police Justice ut an early
hour OF the morning. on complaint Of
Farnham ind Temple, had been, together
with the man captured In Mrs. Belongs
drawing room, bound over to stand his
trial for housobreaklng ut tho next term
of court. He displayed the most abject
terror before his trial, and would have
made q full confession OF the whole af-
fair had Oritt not had tho address to
convey to him the assurance that, IL he
stood firm, the brotherhood Of Bread
winners would attend to his case and be
responsible for his safety. Relying upon
this. he pucked up his spirits and bore
himself With char1lcterlsdc impudence
in tho presence Of the poles Justice, In
sisting upon being called Professor Bot,
giving his profession ns instaraMonal
orator, his religion the divinity Of hui
manly. When bound over for trial,
he rose and gained round or
applause from the idlers in the court
room by shouting. II appeal from this
outrage to the power Of the people and
the judgment OF history
This was his last recorded oration;&
we may as well as at once that. a month
later he stood his trial without help
from any Brotherhood, and passed away
from public life, though not entirely
public employment, MS he Is now USE
fully and unobtrusively engaged in maxi
Ing shoes in the State penltcntiary--and
Is said ITO take serious views Of lifc''
The cases Of sleeny and the men who
wero taken In the street by Farnham's
policemen were also disposed OF sum
;marilys through his Intervention. He could
not help liking the fair-bearded carpen-E
ter, oil though he had been caught in such
bad company, and so charged him mere
lya with riotous conduct in the public
streets for which the penalty was a light
fine and q few days detention. Sleeny
seemed conscious OF his clelnency, but
gave him no look or expression Off graf
situde. Ho was too bitter at heart to
feel gratitude, and too awkward to
feign 1t.
About noon piece OF news arrived
which produced distinct impression of
encouragement among the strikers. 1t
was announced in the public square that
the railway bockaded was broken in
Clarified, a city TO the east Of Bufflnnd
about hundred miles. Tho hands had
accepted the terms OF the employers
and had gone to work again. An orator
tried to break the force of this announce
m ent by depreclating the pluck Of the
Clarified mon. why, gentlemen!" he
screamed "a ten-year-old boy In this
town has got twice the sand Of a Clair
1lelu my. JOSL#De6 Ino lOOoSCS "
kick EN-. When they are fired out Of
a shop door, they sneak down the CHM
bley and whine to be took on again. We
amt made Of that kind OF Stuff
But this naughty style OF eloquence
did not avail to lnspirit the crowd, espe-
,cjally as tho orator was just then Inter-
rupted to allow another dispatch to be
read, which said that the citizens of q
town to the south had risen in mass
and taken the station there from the
hands OF tho strikers. This news pro-
duced a feeling Of isolation and dis
couragement which grew to positive
panic, an hour later. on tho report that
a brigade OF regular troops was on Its
way to Buffland to restore order. The
report was OF course unfounded, as
brigade OF regular troops could not be
got together In this country In much less
time than 1t would take to build n city;
but even the name OF the phantom army
had its effect, and the crowds began to
dispense from that time. The final blow
was struck, however, later In the day.
