E were sitting on the piazza in the twilight of a warm summer day, which we had spent in visit ing a large manufactory ia & tsesgiibortng city, 01 uw foremen in thin establishment, a fin manly young follow, Joe Jatnieson by name, was a favorite in my uncle's family, aud always acknowledged a great iiidebtednossto my cousins Rob ert and ildward for his start in life. I had seen Janueson so often and heard his name spoken with so much consideration, that I was curious to know the story or his life. To-night, in reply to my questions Cousin Ned gave me this account of it. "Five years nno this summer, we had our great Kim Hollow strike. 1 suppose you never saw a report of that in the papers?" "No I replied, "What the world could any one find to strike about in this out-of-the way place?" "It was a school strike," said Ned. "We had an excellent teachor that summer, and as there were no more than thirty scholars, we had a chance to do some pretty good work. 'Our teacher, Miss Ward, had taught the school for a year and we thought there was no one iike her. fclie took a great deal of pains, and helped us in every wsy she could. "Our class, the first one, was com posted of five boys. We were doinff well in our studies, but we were noc wise enough to appreciate it. We were studying history and civil government, and Miss Ward encour aged us to read the newspapers and keep informed about public events. She would take a few minutes occa sionally to ask us questions about what we had read, and explain mat ters we did not understand. In this way we learned a great deal about what was happening in the world. "That summer the papers were full of accounts of strikes in one place, and lockouts in another, with work men combining ngainut employers, and employers against workmen. "pne day, after eating our lunch, the boys of our class were all lying on the grass, discussing the latest news about the strikes. "'I say, follows,' said Harry Rog ers, 'here we are shut up by ourselves in this little-out-of-the-way place, where nothing ever happens to 'liven a fellow up. Let's do something the way they do it in the vest of the world. Let's have a strike!" "'What are you going to Btrike about?" asked Fred Andrews. "0h, we'll put in a petition,' said Harry, 'and it it isn't granted, we'll march out in a body. Unit's the way they always do.' "What shall we petition for?" '"Oh, longer nooning, for one thing.' "'And to have school dismissed earlier,' said another boy. '"And for shorter algebra lessons, this warm weather,' said anoth er. '.'That afternoon Jack Bums wrote out the petition,' and each one signed it. I don't renumber all our demands, but we wanted the morning recess lengthened to half an hour, the noon ing to an hour and a half, and tho day's session shortened by half an hour. We gavo up the nfternoon's re cess. So much for hours. "In regard to work, in warm weath er the lessons were to bo shortened, and algebra never to exceed five prob lems; and we were to be allowed to studv out of doors when we wished "The paper closed with the state ment that it our requests were not all granted by Thursday that day was Tuesday we should leave school in a berfly. It was important, that wo should go out 'in a body.' That phrase always occurred in the reports otstciKes. " e knew that tho trustees, as well as our parents, were not aliltleproud of their first clnss, and we thought, that, in their anxietv to keep us in the school, they would do almost any thing we might ask. It was therefore, with a good deal of confidence, that, after school, we handed tho paper to Miss Ward. She merely bowed, and laid it on her desk without looking at If.. Nothing remained for us but to fa e out. 4 "All the next day we were in a fever of excitement, but Miss Ward said nothing, though when wo had our 'his tory talk' she spoke of a strike that hart been especially disastrous to the strikers. Their employers had refused to take them back, and their families wer in want. 'Thursday morning just before school wascalled, we asked Miss Ward if our demands were to be granted. She replied that, having no authority herself to change the hours, she had sent our petition to the trustees, and as she had heard nothing from them, the school would go on as usual. "I'erhaps the trustees might come during the morning. We gave them the benefit of the doubt and decided to stay until recess. "Recess came, but no trustees, We went to Miss Ward and told her that, while we had nothing against her, we must leave the school, as the trustees had not acceded tvour demands. She talked to us, tried to convince us that , we were taking a very foolish stent but when the bell rang, we did not go in.. "We had been lying on the grass just across the road, for a time, joking and telling stories" when I noticed that Jack was looking at the school house in a wistful way, and was not listening to the talk. " 'Sorry you struck, Jack?" I asked in tun. t " 'Yes,' he said, springing to his feet 'I am! I know it seems mean for me to fi against you boys, especially when wrote the petition, but X believe we'd better give it up and go back to school. I'm sorry, boys, but I'm go inn back, anvhow.' , "Hi picked up his hat and duinar- f si.-. mi "Jack and I were the same age and had'Rlwavs been good friend. Hi" 'treachery' made me angry. I am afraid I spoke pretty harshly to him, and so did the other boys; but he kept on. "There were only four of us now, but we agreed to 'stick it out.' "The next morning Bob and I made no movement toward getting ready to go to school after breakfast. " 'Aren't you going to school, boys?' father askeil. "'No, sir,' I said. 'We are out on strike.' " 'Oho!' said he. Then the strike rame off, t'.id it? How many of you are out?' "'Four,' said Rob. "Jack Burns didn't hare spunk enough to stay in it.' " 'Well,' said father, 'I am inclined to think Jack has as much spunk as any of you. Ha certainly lias more sense.' With that, lie turneu ana walked away. "Later in the day Rob and I mot Fred and Harry, and we nil decided not to speak to Jack. root Jack: He felt pretty soro when we passed him that day without pnying any attention to him, though ho tried hard not to show it. It was a little hard, too, to crush him in that way, but we felt that it had to be uoue, "Well, Monday morning came, and that's where Joe Jamieson's part of the story begins. Joe's parents had been verv poor and had never got ahead in the world. They died when Joe was very young oyid left him to take care of himself. He wasn very strong, but he had grit, and that helped him. He worked around for different farmers, and though there was some talk at first of sending him to tho poorhouse, when he showed that he could take care of himself they let him do so. 'He had been working two years for father, and was a great overgrown, awkward fellow, but a steady work man and always so good natured that we all liked him. "That morning, at tho breakfast table, father asked: " 'Is the striko still "on," boys?' " 'Yes, sir,' we both answered ery promptly. " you aon t intend to go back to Hchnnl. tlipn?' We said that we proposed to stay out tin our pennon was grnnteu. "Father didn't speak for a few min . . -,i .... - t , utes; then ho turned to Joo. " 'Joe, ho said, how would you like to go to school?" "Joo started, grinned and looked greener than ever, but said nothing. He thought father was making a joke at his expense; and Rob and I thought so, too, and wore considerably amus ed until he went on. " 'Well!" father continued, when you finish your breakfast, Joe, you can change your clothes and get ready lor school. 'You ought to have seen Joe then! If he wasn't surprised I nevfr saw anyone who was. "Hut what about, the work, Air. Howard?' he stammered. "'Thobovs will do that father said. 'Why, father!" said Bob, 'you farm don't expect Ned and me to do workr ' " 'Why not?' father nskod." 'I've fed and clothod you, and hired Joe to do the work that you might have time for something else. In return I have asked that you nttend school and do the best you can in your studies. Now you refuse to do that any longer. If Joe, here, is willing to go to school and do what I expected you to do, why, I'm willing to give him tho chance. Turn nbout is fair play, and I shall expect you and Ned, between yon, to do tho work. " 'Remember,' ho continued, 'I have let you make your own rho'ce in this matter of the strike, and haven't tried to coerce you. Miss Ward reasoned with you, and did her best to make you see how foolish your act was, but you refused to listen. 'Now there is no more to be snid about it, one way or tho other. The matter is settled. "'I think you are both old enough to use your own judgment, so I havo let you follow your own course. But now, if lam to support you longer, and you refuse to repay nie in the way I wish, it's only fair you should make some other return.' "By that time there was a big lump in my throat, and I wished the strike had never beeu thought of. I guess Rob did, too, for he was staring hard at his plate. "I looked at mother, but she said nothing. "After breakfast Kob and 1 went upstairs, put on our old clothes with out a word, and went out to work. In addition to Joe, father kept an other man. so the hardest of the labor did not fall to us, though what did was quite hard enough to niako the ilays seem very long. Joe had his share ot discomfort, too; shut up indoors all day, and obliged to be in classes with much oungcr children, ltesidcs all this, lie had never learned to apply himself, and for a while he made but little progress. "However, as time went on he im proved. Miss Ward was very kind to him, and he was determined to sue ceed, if only 'to please Mr. How. ard.' At first Joe was ashamed to come to Rob and mo for help in his studies, but before long Rob offered to assist him. After that we both took a hand, and he improved fast. All this time he helped us with the farm work at night and in the morning. Those were very long davs that wo spent at the larm worK. uur hands were made sore with pitchforks, and our legs ached pitifully every night. e began to talk in a furtive, hnlf-oshamed way at first, and then openly of surrendering. 'Wo had been working about two weeks when we went to father one evening and told him that we should like to go back to school. 'oat how about Joe 7 he asked ab ruptly and in surprise. "We had not thought about the in justice of taking Joe out of school now. we said no more. We did a good deal of thinking in those days, however. We wondered at hrst why Harry uogers didn't come to see us: but one day we heard that Harry's father had set him at work on the farm too. "Jack kept right on at school, but now he avoided us so as not to give us another chance to snub mm wiiihed a oood many times that I had Stood by him, as I had always done before. When I thought of all the cruel thing! I said the afternoon he went back to school, I thoroughly dssDised myself. "vae afternoon when I was driving in the wagon, whom should I see ahfad of m but J ark, walking slowly along with hit head down, and looking forlorn enough. I made tip my mind to speak to him snd see if he was will ing to forgive and forget, though I would not have blamed him if be were not. He was going the same way I was, and dian't st ne till I drove along beside him. Then he looked up. "His face flushed and he turned his head quickly away, pretending no to se- me. Something stuck in my thioat but 1 managed to say, 'Hello, Ja- .' "It was pretty feeble, but he hfard it and looked up with a quick, jello, Ned!" "I stopped the horse and akel him if he didn t want to ride. He looked at me steadily for a minute, and I stammered out: "It's pretty warm to walk, Jock and it's very lonesomo riding alone.' "All right,' said he, and climbed in. "It didn't take us very long to make up, you may lelieve. After that he used to come often and see us and would help us with our books, for we were trying to study when we had time. "When the school term ended Joe worked on the farm again. Mis Ward was to be married in the autumn, and although the trustees urged her to remain, she was obliged to give up her position. So our parents decided that we had better go to the academy at Kingsport. "When we came to take our entrance examination we found out how much we had lost by our strike. While tho rest of us had to join tho class in elementary Latin, Jack went into an advanced class; and that's the reason he's a year ahead Of Rob, Harry and me in college. "After the fall work was done Joo went bock to school, and continued there, working at home nights and mornings until the spring work began on the furni. Father encouraged him to go ahead, and the next fall offered to send him totlie Kingsport academy lor two years. Joe accepted the oiler, and did some very good work at the academy. He isn't exactly brilliant, and would never bo likely to carry oft many honors for scholarship, but what ho does, ho does well. "When the two years were over he decided to become a mechanic, and got a place in the factory at Kings port. Ho has been promoted once or twice already, and u short time ago it member of the firm told father that he was one of the best men they had. He did not give up trying to learn when he left school; he studies the structure and uses of materials and machinery as closely and patiently as he did his books. The firm means to promoto him as fast as he shows him self capable. "Joe insisted on repaying to father tho amount of all his expenses while he was in school. He is devoted to all ol us, and always declares that it Rob and I had not gone on a bt rike that summer ho would never havo been where he is." "So your strike," said I, "did sonic good after all?" "Yes to Joe," said Nod. "Iia it left us one class behind in college. It gave us a very good lesson, to be sure, and hardened our muscles; but that was because lather was wise enough to turn our folly to our own advan tage." tilenn llolley, in Youth's Com panion. A GOOD SETTER. He Kept a Close Watch Upon tie Birds, Without Results. Ho had tho reputation of being a mltless setter when I bought him, and I told all my friends about his wonderful ability, says a sportsman in the Naslivillo Herald. I talked of him so much that they would begin on the subject themselves when they saw nie coming, us i by natural associa- 1011. Finally thev tried to depreciate the dog, and said they didn't believe it was anything like the setter I said t was, and asked me it 1 believed m him so much why I didn't show it up some time and let t hem judge of it themselves. I was thus led to invit ing half a dozen out quail-hunting with nio, though I wasn't quite sure of the dog, after all. We went on a ittle camping tour, and found things in pretty fair condition for a good hunt. Thero was plenty ot quail. For the first day tho dog did very well, and I began to feel triumphant about him. Ve bagged dozens of birds and were jubilant. Tho next day, however, when we started out rather late in tho morn ing, the dog was of no account what ever.- We took IM'K, the colored cooc, along with us to help carry the game, and we couldn't get the dog away from his side. We tried every way in tho world to urge him to begin opera tions, but he refused to do anything except sit and look pitifully nt Dick ? II. 1 IT 1. 1 ... t lie louowect nun wiiereveriie went, and if he stopped tho dog would sit down and begin looking earnest ly at him again. Finally we sent one of the boys back to the tent to get some of tho dead birds. I said I thought that would act as a Jreininder to the dog. Tho boy camo back and said he couldn't find a bird. Ho had ooked through our tent and the cook's tent, but there was not a sign of one. 'Dick," I said, "what has become Of those birds?" 'Do pa'tridges, sah? Yes." 'W'y I thought you had as much as you wanted, an' I took do rest." "W hat did you do with them: "I et dem, sah." And that was what ailed the dog. The Pure Yankee Drawl. The slab-sided Yankee and the Yan kee drawl arepoptilardelusioii8. That is to say, slab sides and drawling are less prevalent in laiikeedom than in some other places they are not dis tinctively Yankee productions. "Caow" and "haow" and tholike may be heard more or less in every town in Vermont, out tne pronunciation is not the rule and is most noticeable among illiterate people. S in all New England. But if any one will go down the coast and cross the Hud son River, he may hear that drawl with such abominations as are never approached in Yankee land, and that among all classes of people. He will find it strong in New Jersey, faint and rare in the Philadelphia region, where the Dutch seem to have given akind of broadbrogue toall mankind, but strong again southward to Virginia, where the people are of English stock. No doubt the "caow" pronunciation was brought over from England with other things good and bad, and plant ed wherever colonies were establish ed. The drawl is an offensive thing a barbarous thing, as reckoned in New England but it now really be longs less to Yankeeland than to some other sections. OI4 raeta.

It loans moier to a few capitalists and takes as security its own bonds. They are known as the national bankers. What interest do these banks pay the government for the money loaned them? Only 1 per cent per annum. What do the banks do with this money? They loan It to the plain people at from 8 per cent to 24 per cent per an num. Will the government loan one of its citizens mouey at 1 per cent per an num? No. These banks control the gov ernment, and they will not allow the government to loan money to its in dividual citizens. Does the government pay these banks any interest on the bonds that they deposited as security? Yes; the government pays them in terest on the bonds all the way from 4 per cent to 6 per cent per annum. Is this equal rights to all and special favors to none?" No. Tho favors are all on the in side and the plain people arc all on the outside. Are the government bonds good se curity?

"I am ono of thoso that believe that these mon from your shops, these far mers, reraoto from money -centers, have the lurgost interest of all peo ple in tho world in having a dollar that is worth 100 cents every day in tho year, and only such.

Theroforo in tho conduct of our public affairs, I foel plodgod, for one, that all the influence of the government should be on the side of giving the people only good monoy, and just as much of that kind as we can get." How long, O Cataline, wilt thou abuse our patienco?" How long, O Harrison, and other United States presidents do you think our people will cat such chaff as that? How happy are they Who their masters obey And have laid up their treasures In Wall Streot! How sweet nice, delightful it is to know that the great, high, absolute truth about money and finance is not that entertainod by a few stupid, pig head, chucklehead mudsills and hay seed, but that entertained by all the "best people." What a blissful arrangement of divine providence that decree that the honest gold dollar, the high priced aristocratic dollar, the horse leech of usury, tho dollar that sneoks awsy to Europe in timo of our greatest nood, the dollar that tho rich man yearns after is tho vory dollar that the poor man would yearn for "if ho knew enough." But l'ke Artemus Ward ho is bo ginning to say "Nary yearn!" Chica. go Express. A Pertinent Question. A portinent question, according to Tho Grange Advocate, is. Will tho voters support the candidates in tho future who have the courage to place themselves upon a platform ad vocating the demands of the people and pledging themselves, if elected, to use their utmost efforts to carry out. those demands? Thero is no use trying to rub out the fact that tho people have beon fooled, badly fooled, a num ber of times, and the only wsy to put a stop to present methods is to oloct men to office who will bo true to the promises, no maltor what influence may be employed to induce them to go back on their pledges. We will go further than this and say that the people should resolve right away that they will no longer support any but men who can be trusted to carry out tho wishes of the people in all matters unless it can bo demonstrated that said wishes are un wise. This is the truo course for pa triotic men and thoy should be satisfied with nothing short of this. In this way politics can be purified to some extent, at leust Progressive Furinor. The Salina Union: This govern ment has given to railroad corpora tions millions of dollars as subsidies. But did you ever hear of the govern ment loaning- a laboring man who has been thrown out of employment, a family dependent upon support, enough money to get a breakfast with? But it loans to the natlonul banks millions at 1 per 00 nt Yea the gov ernment has had millions for corpora tions, but not 1 cent for toilers. The Arkansas f armer: Xbe great underlying thought that Is at the bot tom of all the principles of tho Farm ers' Alliance Is the overthrow of the present unfair, unjust and iniquitous system of national finances, end the Institution of another that pln es the government nearer to the people, the treasury nearer the masses instead of the classes. It is the determination of the people to hold and enjoy the ult8 of honest labor instead of stand by and seeing others enjoy them uilst they suffer. This they are de termined to have and nothing can now stop the movement IsfMl' &-nrimg Peerer. While the wealth of this nation has increased during the past quarter of a century faster than was ever known before in any nation, the workers of the land who produced the wealth have gradually and rapidly grown poorer. Through corporation control of our money, our railways, our tele graph and telephones, and our vast number of labor saving inventions, the products of the toiling millions have been stolen by the class of idlers that produces nothing but poverty, misery, and crime.
