I Siwial Sew Y Letter I The strike is not a modern. Invention. It has existed in some ahapa or other si tsido, and it will continue to exist antil the end of all things, fur it is caused by poverty; and we have the very highest authority for the belief that the pour will always be with na. Leaving out the case of Abel, the first strike on record is that of Jacob against his employer and father-in-law Lahan, who was the owner of a stock ranch in the early days. Jacob's griev ance is briefly, but succinctly, set forth hi the forty-first verse of the thirty second chapter of Genesis. It reads: TUB BI0TEUS BKK T11K FOIST. "Thus hnve I been for twenty years In thy house; I served thee fonrteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy cattle; and thou host changed my wages ten times." Tnen Jacob struck his duplex father-in-law for higher wages, and, not get ting them, went out. This was one of the few strikes that was a success, for Jacob went into buafhess on his own account, and prospered. It will be noticed, however, that had it not been for a bod dream that Laban had he would have brought Jacob to terms. In this, the first of all recorded strikes, the Almighty sided with the oppressed. Another notablo strike was that of the Israelites against the exactions of Pharoah, he of the Indurated heart. Hoses was the organizer of this strike. When Pharoah called out his militia, to bring the strikers to terms, they came to grief in a miraculous manner in the Kcd sea. However, It is only fair to call attention to the. fact that Pharaoh's version of the trouble has never been published. There may have been some mitigating circumstances, for the subsequent conduct of the children of Israel, in putting to the sword those with whom they did not agree, justi fies the suspicion that they, themselves, were not entirely devoid of discrep ancies. Incidentally, it may be also mentioned that before leaving Egypt Moses struck an Egyptian so hard that he never rallied from the effect of the blow, I never see that Egyptian obelisk In Central park without thinking about the row between Moses and Pharoah, for it was one of the obelisks in front of the temple of On, at which institution Moses was a student. There it was that ho acquired much of that wisdom for which he was justly celebrated. Strange, isn't it, that there should be in New York an obelisk at which the great law-giver must have gazed every day? But I am digressing. A strike very much to be commend ed was that of the ancient Greeks, who, following the advice of their leader, Marco Iiozzaris, struck for their altars and their fires. Strikes are very uncertain as to the ultimate result. They are like run away horses more easily prevented than stopped. And, like runaway horses, those engaged in them do not realize when they start out that they themselves may be fished out of the wreck at the finish. It even happens that the capitalists utilize strikes for their own benefit It sometimes occurs that a manufacturer, who holds more stock than he can carry, makes fortune out of misfortune by inducing the employes to go out on a strike. Labor frequently accommo dates capital with the loan Of a strike. Strikes generally affect the strikers more disastrously than the employers. Men have stomachs, dollars have not. Again, it Is estimated that the amount spent by workingmen in strikes during the last two years would have paid the wages of a hundred thousand men dur ing that period. One of the greatest obstacles to the success of strikes in large cities Is to be found in the fact that, as soon as a strike has been started, the ranks of the strikers are swelled by large accessions from the very toughest elements of so ciety, men who never do honest work under any circumstances whatever. It was to a man of this type that a soft minded friend of mine in Brooklyn gave an oraer ror a dinner. The bill came in for nine beers and a cigar. The strik ers in Brooklyn were also reinforced by foreign anarchists, men who came to this country In search of freedom from work. In the future, as in the cost, this objectionable element will exert an in fluence for evil in every strike that takes place in a large city. Much more trouble is caused by men who can get work, but wont work, than by those who want to work. Of course, employ ers, particularly when they are laree corporations, are always violently op posed to labor demonstrations of anv kind. In fact, the baseball player is the only one whose right to strike is not y acknowledged but approved b t'. ose for whom he works. TSie only persons who seem to profit j V's a4 nivlkm ere tu leivrtoj-i j ATLANTA GA.) EXPOSITION. who sell extras. They srcusrd enrt'isi ty at ail hoars durip the Brooklyn riots by shouting: "tre's yer extry. SpltsJiua and death! Croat excite ment," It b not unlikely that mora people died Irum pneumonia contra -ted by going At Into the streets a: night, thinly clad, to secure the latest join, than were actually killed in the slwt fight. There are, moreover, strikers who are not any too fond of steady work. Therw is a well authenticated ease of a Broo lyn striker saying to his wile: "More labor troubles; when will the poor laboring man in this land have peaeo and his honest rights?" "What's tho matter now?" a&ked his wife, "nothing worse, I hope." "Yes, Indeed, there us; I heard a rumor that the trolley bosses were going to give in and then i d have to go to work again.' So publie speaker, no matter how demonstrative his audience or aapop- nlar his theme, ever went through the ordeal to which the new motortnen on the Brooklyn trolley car, and hU guardian angel, a policeman with large elub with warts on it, are still subjected, occasionally, although tho strike is supposed to be over. While the strike was at Its height rows and fights were of such common occur rence that if at any time there was no rioting going on largo crowds gathered from curiosity H see what was the matter. However, the new employes became so accustomed to harsh treat ment that they were grateful when no more dangerous missiles than eggs of last year's vintage, back-number cats and like aromatic testimonials were wafted at them. Numerous motermcn and policemen underwent the experi ence of that orator at the meeting- on the St. Stanislaus, poetically described by Bret llarte. He was hit by a largo geological specimen, and then " tlo curled up on the Hoot, And th subsequent proceedings interested aim no mora. The strikers and many other citizens of Brooklyn entertained a feeling of contempt for the militia until they demonstrated their effectiveness. A private of the Seventy-ilrst regiment, who was returning to Sew York on a few hours' leave of absence, was stand ing on the platform of an elevated sta tion, when he was approached by an aged Hibernian, who had overestimated himself. The latter expressed his can. did opinion that with "an ould black' thorn" he could make short work of militiaman with his gun and bayonet. "Where would you hit mc?" asked tin soldier, good naturedly. "On the top avyer cocoannt, be dad!" "Well, stand back and IH show you what l a do, replied the soldier, mak ing the head parry and lunging for ward with his bayonet. "That's whal I'd do, and you and your old blackthorn would be burled In the same cofiin." "Did yez Ivor see the lolke?" elat-u- lated tho Irishman, satisfied that a mus ket and bayonet are not to lie trifled with when in tho hands of a man whe knows what to c'.o with them. Tho great question of the day 1st "What shall be done to prevent strikes? They aro going to occur in the futurt as they have in the past, involving tin- toifl misery and Unancinl loss.

TVml might do for a short time, but it vrould not be very long before those who were not addicted to stale beer and a seden tary life would acquire the property oi the others.

This, of course, involves tb hearty cooperation of the large capi talists, and I regret to say that, as fa ns New York is concerned, there is nc Indication of the participation of the Astors and Vanderbilts, hence it would not be fashionable with most of the so ciety people.

Scxt April a succession of religious festivals will take place in Venice to celebrate the Booth anniversary of the consecration of Saint Mark's.
