BED OF BONES.
D.scoyery of Human R ns Barncd
anil BurieHu Molley Heap ,
Was It a M s cro ?
Several years ago Mr. Luccock and
Mr. Halo , of this cily , dlaooverod wlmt
appeared to bo an Indian burying ground ,
on a ridge of land , on the road leading ;
out to Mytister Springs. A few pieces of
pDttcry and a number of bones wore dis
covered at tint time , and aomo little In-
tcicst was excited , but thu matter bad
been allowed to drop , and for several
years there- has hardly boon a word said
about It. The other day sev
eral of the old citizen * hunted
np the spot and made more ox-
animations , revealing some curious fats ,
Thcro is a space of ground , about twenty
feet tqnaro , which seems to bo full of
human bones , and digging almost anywhere -
where to a depth of a few inches only ,
ono finds bones of all sizes and shapes.
Thcro are bones of infanta and of adults ,
mon nnd women , and thoeo Ho BO pro
miscuously that it appears that they could
not have been originally burled in graves ,
but thrown in a heap. A low bunches
of hair , crlap , as if burned , and some
charred bonoa Indicnto that tbo bodies
had boon burnod. The party who went
out on this laat investigation found a
nnmbar of skulls , and thcso , with nome
of the bones , Imvo boon placed in Field
& Eatep'a undertaking establishment ,
where anyone desiring can inspect them ,
The skulls especially form an Interesting
study , as they are of very peculiar ahapo ,
the forehead sloping back in an idiotic
sort of way , and the back part of the
head being Hat. The teeth are alto
odd , and among the queer things found is
a small granite bonldor , which lay among
the bonoa , and as such a stone is not to
bo found anywhere in this part of the
country , it Is evident that it must have
boon brought hero. The presencoof ouch
a promiscuous pile of human bones , and
the Indications that they hadbcon batned ,
loads to many conjectures , among which
is prominent the idea that many years
ago ono barborons trlbo must have
fallen upon another and massacred
thorn , killing men , women and children ,
and burning them In a great pilo. Thns
far no weapons have been found , and
aside from the few pieces of pottery no
utensils or other articles. Tno spot is
evidently the acena of some toirlblo
event , and same stops will bo taken to
have the research more thorough and
systemic , in the expectation of getting at
some more interesting and decisive traces
of the history thus buried and not to bo
found in books.

The condition of the wage workers Is
improving , through tbo outlet afforded
west and south , and became of tbo mar
kets growing there- for manufacturing
products. Fewer idle mon are to bo met
with each succeeding week , taking labor
in the aggregate. Mora small industries
are spring up In the woat than in the

to take advantage of the cheapness and
nearness of foul , which la being found in
largo supply In Illinois , Iowa nnd Mis

Tynographlcal union No. C , of How
York , Is making grand preparations for
the International typographical conven
tion next month. The female printers are
being organized.
For some reason trade-unionism flour
ishes more in Now York than hero. The
painters have a llvo organization. So
have the butchers , bakers , waiters , framers -
ors , hod-hoisting engineers , gaa-fittora ,
watchmakoro , sewing-girls , and a score
of smaller Industries. The New York
union carpenters are reporting / cases
of slack workmanship in building to the
building Inspector , In order to force the
employment of organized labor. The
plasterers fine a man $50 for working
under objectionable bosses , aud expel
him for Its non-payment.
Numerous assemblies are being organ
ized In thia city , and the membership Is
greater than it has been for ten years.
Every effort to establish a central union
has failed , because of the antagonistic
methods and ideas of the workmen.
When laborers conduct their affairs as
corporations do they will win. Ono mia-
take made is tint labor representatives
moot to talk and make speeches.
The New York bricklayers made a
fight for ntno hours per day and won ,
and have suffered a reduction from § 4
par day to $3 78 which Is an advance of
two cents per hour. The demand for
labor Is great , and some builders are bid
ding 45 cents. The workmen and their
employers have a joint arbitration com
mitteo. The builders are pleased because
iuturo disturbances can bo avoided.
There are in that city 3,000 thoroughly
organized bricklayers , divided into five
unlone. Each sends three delegates to
the oxecntivo committee. A rule pre
vents bosses from employing outeido
bricklayers. Wages arc $1 in several
northern cities ; $3 50 hero and at Baifjlo
and $5 in Memphis , Galvcston and two
or three other southern states.
The building np of industrial villages
in Great Britain Is the latest attempt to
prevent the depopulation of country dis
tricts. Thcro ia alwaya a rush of people
from the country to city throughout
England. Samuel Morley , M. P. , has

establish villhgoa and villlago Industries
and at the same time diicover markol.ii
for the products of thcso industries. A
society has been organ'zed ' to c rry this
project out , and it will endeavor to make
rural life mora attractive.
Frank A. Fowler , the chief of the Wis
consin labor bureau , haa juet submitted
his first report , which is divided into ton
pirls , and goes over the question : ) of ap
prentices , industrial education , trade and
labor unions' ttrikes and other like ques
tlons. According to the report hundreds
of manufacturers in that state are losing
money. The object nf the labor unions
of Wisconsin , according to the report , Is
the establishment of uniform minimum
wages for skilled labor in given trades ,
and mutual support Incase of need. Very
few trades appear to bo organized. Agri
cultural , dairying , stock raisin ? , wool
and tobacco growing are the principal cc-
cnpations of the people.
The Knights of Labor are giving a
good deal of enthusiastic attention to co
operation. Unless the Improvement Is
ably managed It will ba disappointing.
As business Is now done there is not
much profit In it. The fortunes made
nowadays , whether in bualnocs or man
nfacturing , nro generally made by fatrik
ing something now and strange. Cooperators -
operators do not propose to do thia ; bn'
they follow in with the rank and file o
producers where competition Is most act
ive and where margins of profit nro ex
tremely light. If they expect to make
much more out of co-operation than by
working for wages they will bo disap
pointed , If these new co-operators pur
chased at wholesale they could save
something.
The western trades-unionists are ask
ing the president to make some change In
the bead of the labor bureau , and that he
appoint John W , McGrath , of Detroit ,
Mich. Ono of the foremost men In the
labor bureau Is John Dolvln , who three
or four years ago was a Kensington
weaver. The labor mon hold the balance
of power in the Michigan house of repre.
sentatlves , and already a ten-hour bill ,
a child-labor bill and H convict cent/act-
labor bill have been passed. In several
other states labor legislation has been
banging fire and will not pass.
Too workingmcn of the country ara be
ginning to snaptct that the labor bureau
bill was thrown at them in the way ot

MAKING A WHITE MAN OF HIM ,
Forcmnn Jacobs W B Unpopular nnd
Ho Gut ft Hint of it oiiTlmrfiilny.
Philadelphia Times , May 9 ,
Benjamin Jacobs Is the foreman of the
Bast Oonshohockon and Plymouth htono
Quarry. About sixty mon are employed ,
llo has only held the position for n
month , nnd no says ho doesn't want it
any longer. Two weeks ago the laborers ,
who were then getting 81.25 per day ,
went out a ttrlko for an Increaio of
wagee , They wont to work next day at
? 1 40. On Thursday they told the fore
man they would not work unless they got
$1.50 per day , the wages they wore paid
laat summer. It is slid that Foreman
Jacobs refused to carry their request to
the company who own the quarry , and
that ho told the mon that it they were
not aatisBod with the amount of waged
received they could quit work , and they
would got men from olaowhcro to take
their places.
At noon on Wednesday every man left
the quarry , and Mr. Jacobs boarded a
train and went to Manayunk , where ho
lives. As returned to Conahohocken
Thursday morning on the 7 o'clock train ,
and proceeded to walx to the quarry ,
which is half n mile north of the town. It
was raining hard , &nd Mr. Jacobs were a
heavy rubber coat. When within 300
yards of the quarry ho suddenly came up
on some thirty women , who had concealed
themselves behind a freight train which
stood upon a side track of the Reading
Railroad. The women were disguised In
such a manner that they looked like a
band of strolling gypsies ,
"Will you give us a job ? " asked ono of
the woman. The foreman did not have
time to make a reply tor in an instant ho
was surrounded , aud showers of white
wash fell npon him faster than the rain.
Each woman was armed with a whitewash
brush , while a.half-dozen buckets of limo
wera placed conveniently around ,
"Let him have It , the brute , " cried one
of the women.
"Lot's make a white man of him , "
cried another.
"Oh , you'll starve workingmon's ' fami
lies will yon ? " shrieked a third as she
dashed a whole bucket of whitewash on
the foroman. When ho made a dash for
freedom ho was quickly caught by a ( loot-
footed Amazon and hold , whtlo these who
were slower of movement plied him with
slacked lime. At last ha made n desper-
nto dash to get away , and succeeded in
gaining a pile of cinders , but was s 3 hotly
pursued that ho tumbled down the ether
eido and rolled to the edged of Plymouth
creek. Ragalning his feet ho ran over a
bridge and around a cinder crusher
There ho was mot by another gang of
women with whitewash brushes who chafed
him. Ho succeeded in reaching the office
of the Beaty quarry , 'whoro ho entered
tbo barricaded door. The office was soon
surrounded by the infuriated women , who
ow numbered almost a hundred.
"Como oat. If you don' < - we'll pull
ho house down , " said ono of the women ,
, nd then they proceeded to batter the
oor.
oor.Lidiee , " called out the terrified fore
nan , "will you let mo wash the lime out
f my eyes ? '
"Como out , " demanded the women.
"Ladles , If you will only let mo alone
will leave town and never show my face
ere again "
This lost plea of the terrified foreman
rought forth cries of triumph. At last
o was aasnrod that if ho would leave he
night come oat. The foreman had hardly
eft the door , however , when the women
with their brushes thoroughly saturated
with whitewash , made another break at
1m. He succeeded in climbing upon a
seeing engine , and thus made his es-
apo. Mr. Jacobs did not return to the
uarry yesterday , and all was quiet.
llchael O'Brien , ono of tha owners of
he quarry , slid yesterday :
"Wo era willing to pay the mon what
, hey demand , but it appears that the
rouble ia not so much over the wages ,
The foreman is offensive to them , and has
eon from the first. Everything will be
jght in a day or two. "

FEMAljI'J HOMESTEADERS.
low the Smart Girls of
Help Themselves to Homes Aiul
FaritiH ,
Editor of the Now York Sun Sir : I
iw an article Borne tlmo ago In the Sun
ibout a fiirl who had been bookkeeper
'or some firm in Chicago , and saved her
wages until shn bad enough money to
omo west and buy a sheep ranch In oion-
ana.
ana.Thia story reminded me of the enter
crpris" nnd fjood common sense of many
if the girls in Nebraska , where young
women , oepocially thoeo who llvo in the
jountry , have few opportunities of earn-
ng earning largo ealeriea , ns this Chicago
jlrl had ; nevertheless , they earn what
hey can , and It Is surprising what some
iVlll accomplish , even with small earnings.
The majority of farmers' daughter *
each school at a salary of from § 18 to
$30 per month , and after deducting
enough for board and clothes , they save
money to pay their way at some good
chool or college for a term or more , and
hen teach again. Their fathers never
liink It necessary to mortgage the farm
n order to send the girls to school , as
some fathers do for their sons.
These girls tench , not only as a means
of obtaining an education , but they hare
homesteads and timber claims , and im
prove them as much as their scanty
wages will allow. I know two girls who
are In college. Both are teachers , and
both have homesteads. When In ochool
they work faithfully , for they know the
value of time and money better than
these whoao parents sent them to school.
Some girls learn all there la to be
learned at district schools , and then , in
stead of going to college , they Invest all
the money they can spare In cows or
calves , which they hire kept. This is a
good investment , as cattle can bo sold
readily at almost any time.
Young women as well as young men
see the importance cf obtaining land and
making homej for thetmolvea ; therefor <
they take advantage of Uncle Bara'a gen
erosity , and get as much land as the law
will permit , which is 320 acres , ahcme
tead and timber claim , ICO BOIOI It
aach ,
The average female homesteader 1
business-like and not affaid to do an'
work that falU to her lot. She can hel ]
mow and stack hay , Is a good housekeep
er , can milk ooire , and hirne a team a
easily ai her brothers , and I have knowi
a few glrli who have built the shanties o
their homestead * . These ehanties , yo
must understand , are cheap , easily con
structed homes , of a primitive pattern , '
and usually called a "claim holder. "
When a girl of this kind nurt'us she
generally considers herself as capable of
managing her property as she was before
she married , and for this reason aho doca
not make so desirable a wlfo aa ono who
la not quite so strong minded and does
not know a bad bargain from a good ono.
If a girl who has n homestead marries
a man who has not , the lawsavs she may
keep the land and perfect the title in
her own name. How much more inde
pendent a married woman is when eho
has aomo properly , bo It much or llttlo.
She does not foci as though she WAS
working merely forhor board and clothes ,
but ns though aho hod n share In the firm ,
and some rights equal with her husband ,
111 Nubraaka It Is supposed that woman
has evolntcd far enough out of the state
of Imbecility to bo allowed to yoto ou all
questions relating to the public schools ,
providing aho has taxable property or
children of a school ago. She can also
bo elected to any school office. Several
years aajo I know a young woman who ,
when she married , had 320 acres of land
n.id several head of cattlo. She was only
n country school teacher , but what little
she earned oho used judiciously.
Not only young women avail thorn-
solves of homesteads and timber claims ,
widows and old maids have the same right.
Some real old ladles Uko claims , and
after many trials and hardships recolvo a
deed thorofor.
Near one of our thriving llltlp towns Is
a creamery conducted by a maiden lady.
She ia half owner of the creamery , nnd ,
In addition owns n homestead and
timber claim. O.i the homestead
aho haa n small sere * and postollico.
In her absence this biiiiness H attended
to by a lady deputy.Vhon she goas out
she drives a fine horao and carriage , car
ries a gold watch , and is qnlto aris
tocratic
Any girl over 21 years of ago , who has
a fair education and the ability to use it ,
can get a homo of her own , if she choose ! ,
in this stato. There are disadvantages
to contend with hero the snino as elsewhere -
where , but nothing ia gained without
poraoveranco. Many eastern girls caino
woat to got land , and succeeded , too.

a man who la euro soon to attract the at
tention of the cnlro country. In all his
ways of thought and expression , ho Is in
tensely southern. Ho has the conserva
tive Ideas of religion which , however
much they have been weakened elsewhere -
where , are still strong In the south , and
ho denounces whatever ho considers sin ,
with the force and tire of determination
it met fro01 the pirly methodist circuit
riders. In his language and the
construction cf his eentcncaa , Mr.
Jones reflects his section , but in his
terse and epigrammatic vigor ho reflects
his own originality. Ho ii essentially a
proverb maker. ' I never kill hogs till I
have got my water hot , " ho said not long
ago in Atlanta , having been called there
to bo in a revival and disappointing all
the good Christians of Atlanta by "pitch
ing Into" them Instead of the sinners. So
when , tiring of It , they aaked why ho
did not do what they brought him there
to do and "awaken" the sinners , ho de
livered himself of the epigrammatic met
aphor his best defence , conveying as
he did the idea of "hog killing ; " the tin
nora the hogs , and the church the im
mouse caldron , the boiling of which Is
the signal for the killing to begin ; con
veying too the idea that when the kettle
did boll , he meant to scald the sinners ,
as indeed ho always does , being as they
say in Go.r ia , an evangelist "with the
bark on. "
His sermons are Intensely original.
Ho condenses a large train of thought
into a sentence as has scarcely been done
slnca the days of Sidney Smith. His
most colemn periods are witty because
they ara surprising. "I never saw a
man who did nut beliovp In hell , who , if
there is ono , is not making a bee line for
it , " Is a Georgia way of expressing a sar
casm which would not discredit Dean
Swift , Then again : "Tho great trouble
with preachers in thia good day Is , that
they ara BO elegant they always refer to
hell as the burnt district. Thio sort of
dignity Is the starch of a shroud. " Back
of such eaylnga as that there Is the in
spiration of an intense original
ity and a faith equally in
tense. Not highly educated and
far from refined , this Georgian haa at
lta t enough of the martyr In him to
atand up for his creed ng&inst the world ,
and give and take according to P. R.
rules. Ho shows a ruthless disregard
for the sinner's feolinss , prejudices and
bdtefe. There la only ono faith , and
that la the ens hu is fighting for. "A
man novcr hud a doubt" ho says , "which ,
If ho pulled it up by the root ; , failed to
have a eood at the bottom , and the name
of that ccod is sin. Your infidelity la as
deep as your meanness and no deeper. "
Georgia Las recently created a eonsa-
tlon by loading "tho nugnntio wonder"
to the noith. In the Rev. Samuel
Jones , she has another instrument for
increasing her reputation for prodigies
and phenomena.
Sharp Cattle Thieves tn Uruguay.
"Cattlo thieves in the land whore I
ralso stock , " said a Montveldeo cattle
breeder , visiting Now York , "havo dls
covered a now and Ingenious mode of
disguising their booty. Last autumn I
loit several head , and half a dozen times
I and my men , with tbo mounted police
men , came up with the thieves , and I
saw with them cattle that I know at once
were mine. My brand was on them
( J. M ) , and sometimes there were scare-
on the bodies that I knew quite well.
The animals were exactly like mine in
every respect but ono. Tbo horns
branched differently. If those on my
cowa had pointed np these drooped to
ward the ground , and often ono pointed
forward and the other backward , or one
toward the aky and the other toward the
earth ,
"J. M. " the drover Bald , were his owner
or his employor'a initials. The cattle
were certainly mine , but I could not
swear to them , and I was obliged to see
them taken away ,
"The thieves bad kept the horns wrap
ped In poultices of boiling-hot meal until
they were soft enough to be twlated , and
thus destroyed the cows Identity. The
horns soon hardened when the bandages
were removed.
I have been told that the trlrk waa in
vented by Rneslan cattle thlevoi. 1 wish
they had kept It at horao. "
