As they sat together in a low and earnest conversa- tion, an old man in worn,but once res- pectable garments, lame and hobbing on a crutch, paused directly in front of the trio* and glanced searchingly in the faces of all three, Thete was an expression in the upturned countenance of the old man too readily defined—a look of weari- ness—an air, in fact, of prosent poverty, that could not be misunderstood by the group. “Can I do anything for you, my man{" asked the senior of the trio, attsnuvely regarding the stationary figure in his front. ““I think not, sir,” was the quick re- sponse, “‘Where did you got that lame leg?” in- quired the first speaker. ‘At Chickamauga.” *On what side?” “Your side, if you are a Southerner,” rejoined the old;man, leaning wearily on his crutch. “Not mine, friend,,” said the gentle- man, 1 belong to the other side.” “That makes a big difterence,” remark- ed the crippled stranger. “‘I 'was about to ask you a favor, but Fyou live on the wrong side of the house,” “What can I dofor you, old man? still urged the gentleman with quiet at tho | gravity. “I may as well tell you as any one else. ful slesp which only an infant can know. | I am a stranger in this city and trying to Tho long strike of the Fall River spin- [get ot of it.

These are men who have been *‘black listed” on account of their participation in the strike. “There arofifty of thesespinners thusun- der the ban,” said Secretary Howard. *‘When one of them applies for work at & mill he is asked s to where he worked last. If he gives his truo name he is at once known as being on the list. If, as has often been the case, he gives a false name and mentions & mill which has not been in the strike, the telephone is used to ascertain the truth of his story.

An out- of-town man has hie place. Those who are at work went with the promise that their wages should be equal to what they were before the strike; but there is not only & reduction of 11 per cent but there are allowances, formerl, granted but not now permitted, whicl makes the reduction equal to more than 20 per cent, The work is hard and _the Wages poor—soarcely worth working for.” “The union is not able to give much assistance ta those who are out of work.” “'WE HAVE NO FUNDS to speak of now. When the men went in we sent out word that the strike was over, and that further aid was not need- ed.

He had his dinner pail with him, and in it were two half slices of dry bread.

Once he came with a child on each arm, It wasa sad sight. *‘The worst case is that of another man who has five children. ‘ His wife came to me last Monday and said, ‘We have five children, and something must be done for us.

A curious illustration of the danger of doing business with very rich men is now furnished by the situation of the Wabash affairs in New York. It is notorious that to float the Wabash stock, especially the preferred, in the market dividends were paid on the latter. (You have to have two_dividends, bécause the first one can- notbe announced as the *‘regular” or the “‘ugual,” etc.) While paying these divi- dends the'company was borrowing money, and it is demonstrated that the dividends were onl¥ earned as ‘‘a mattor of book- keeping,” and not as a matter of fact. The stock being floated so well, the blanket mortgage, of course, sold easily. By-and-by, ready money growing scarcer, the company wasin worse straits until atlast it has lately had to go into a receiver’s hands. But the money that had been borrowed had come from the banks uponthe company’s notes indorsed by Jay Gould and Russell Sage. When the crisis came the notes were protested and Gould and Sage blandly declined to pay up as endorsers. To two sorts of men only is it given to stand at bay in that situation—the bank- rupt and the millionaire. The man who has no property but his home, the man who is *‘comfortably fixed,” even the ordinarily rich man, has to step in and pay when the note is protested that he has endorsed. Many a case of ruin has come from this cause. But the man who is 80 rich that he can defy courts, if thoy can't do anything worse with them, oan calmly decline to honor his obliga: tion, and ask instead “‘what are you go- b ing to do about In this case it is said receiver's certifi- cates either have been or will be issued to tako up this protested paper, the certifi- cates to be, by order of the court, lien on tho property superior to the actual mortgages. A performance like this is frightfully demoralizing and in no small way dangerous, It just so far vitiates the bond that each holder of the mort- ogo nupposed he postessed, and. 1t re- loves the common indorsers altogether, at tho expense of the fundamental cred- itors of the company.

San Francisco Oall, Benjamin O. Scott, of Brooklyn, Cal., who died at Toombstone, A, T., June 14, 1884, was a native of California, having been born in Placer county in 1858, In 1878,'at twenty years of age, he went to Arizona, and in December, 1883, while 1n the employ of the New Jersey and Sonora Reduction company, engaged in transporting mining supplies from Tombstone to the company's works, he, in company with a Mr. Bennet, when about twenty-five miles from Fronteras, in Mexico, were attacked by a band of Apache Indiana lying in ambush near the road, who, almost without a moments warning, fired upon them as they sat in their wagons, The first shot struck Mr. Scott in the right arm, wounding him soverely, shattering the bone between the shoulder and elbow joint. Mr. Bennet rocoived two shots, one of which was fatal, and from which he died on the following day. Notwithstand- ing they wero armed their sudden surprise made resistance useless, and being overpowered by numbers, their only safety was in retreat, and Mr. Soott, with true bravery, guarded his fatally wounded comrade as well as he could with his gun and left arm whlle he crawled to the underbrush, then retreat- ing himself, with his wounded arm dang- ling by his side, still under fire of the savages, but without receiving any fur- ther wounds. From their place of con- cealment they witnessed the plunder of the contents of their wagons by the savages, who appropriated whatever of value they could carry off, including all of their animals, and, as a fitting termin- ation to their robbery and outrage, they destroyed what they could not carry away by igniting some 50 pounds of Hercules powder (of which the supplies in part consisted), blowing the wagons, mining utensils and all else that re- mained into the air with a terrific explo- sion. 5 In their terrible dilemma they held a consultation as to what they should do, and Mr. Scott decided to start back to Fronteras for help at dark, which he did, on foot, being compelled to leave his com. panion. fatally wounded, helplots and one, He reached Fronteras'the next morn- ing and Bennett was brought in that day, but died soon after his arrival. Notwith- standing the severity of Mr. Scott's wounds, and the fact that being nearly 100 miles from Tombstone no medical as- sistance could be obtained for several days, yet, by the skill of Dr. Willes, his arm was saved. But the star of ill-fortuno seemed de- termined to hover over him, for the first act which ho performed after his arm was sufficiently restored, and tha one which proved to be the last of his life, was as follows: He had been to Fronteras and made an unsuccessful effort to obtain permission from the Mexioan authorities to remove the body of his comrade Ben- nett, and have it re-interred at Tomb- stone, upon American soil, and while re- turning on the 13th of June, with the empty casket in the wagon, in passing over a rough place in the road his gun was accidentally discharged, the contents passing thmumil left arm, entering his body and breaking his eighth and ninth ribs, producing a fatal wound, from which he died on tl:?lollowing night. A singu- lar circumstanve proper to be mentioned hero is that he is the last of three chil- dren of the same parenta, all of whom came to their death by accident. The body was embalmed, forwarded to San Francisco and will be interred in the Masonic cemetey. e —— A Special Invitation, ‘We especially invite a trial by all those sufferers from Kidney and Liver com- plaints who have failed to obtain relief from doctors.

A tall boy, dressod in a grimy blouso and overalls, stood in a long shed on Canal street, pumping air into a littlo pot of blazing charcoal. "In his left hand he held a pair of nippers which he used to manipulate a red-hot iron bolt lying among the coals, Presently the bolt grew white, fire with his nippers, shook it in the air to detach from it the clinging bits of blazing charcoal, and ran with it to a big boiler where two workmen stood leaning on heavy iron sledges. He placed his bit of iron in one of a row of holes drilled through fwo overlapping plates of boiler iron. The workmen fell upon it with their slodges and beat it with alternating blows until it presented only a conical head of cold iron. Then the men laid down their sledges and betweon them drank the contents of a tin pail of water whioh the boy brought them. “'There's something strange about that man,” said the boy to a Daily Nows ro- This is » striking and & suggestive but | porter who stood in the doorway.

They are aecused of having stolen in the aggregate $2,670,000. The bank presi- dents are John Halliard, of the Me- chanics’ and Laborers, bank of Jersey City, and Garret S. Boice, who, with nis son-in-law, Shaw, and his clerk, Beach, cleaned out the City National bank of Jersey City and then announced the sus- pomsion, FEx-Sheriff Laverty, the keeper of the states prison, says that Beach con- fesses that the two gathered together the funds of the bank and put them in their pockets before closing the instutution, “We didn’t know the &!,200 found in ohe of the drawers after our arrest w there,” he frankly remarked, ‘‘or it wouldn’t have remained there,” Sheriff Laverty is of the opinion that the young men profited chiefly by the transaction, and that they lead Boice into it. Beach, whose wife livesin a fash- ionable boarding house in New York is the only one of them who seems to have any money. Mrs. Boice and her family, including Shaw's wife, earn their living. Mrs. Shaw teaches music and sings in a church; one of the Misses Boice, who is an accomplished artist, paints, and Mrs, Boice does needle work. Baldwin, the wrecker of the Mechauic's National bank, of Newark, is book keep- er in the rubber factory. It is said that that his friends hold the contract, and that they provide for Baldwin’s family. Sheriff Lafferty says that Jarrad, the Middlesex county collector, who em- bezzled $30,000, is in excellent health, “I do not believe,” the sheriff adds, *‘that ho ever committed tho forgery of which he is convicted, He admits the embezzlement, but denies the forgery. There are eight life prisoners in the state Prison. The only woman among them is Libbie Garrabrant, who killed her lover in Patterson some years ago with slow poison, The sheriff says she is incorrigbly bad. S ———— Ladies, attention!
