Outcome or the Great Brown Strike in That City, A despatch from Cleveland says :—One of the most dastardly attempts at mur- der ever laid at the door of organized Labor took place here on Frriday night, it being the outcome of the great Brown strike, that has been going on in this city for the past three months. As a result four men are wounded,two of whom aro liable to die. On June 25 the great Brown Hoisting & Convey- ing Machine Company discharged its 800 employees because of a threatened strike. Since that time rioting has bean the sofpr�btei thousands of sympathizers. Aoua week ago the seven companies of mil- itia were withdrawn from the Brown works and the police protection taken away. Friday night a party of ten strikers went to the corner of Wade Park and East. Madison street and lay in wait for a party of workmen who Dame by on their way home from the Brown works. There were nine men in the little group of workmen with their dinner pails. Without a moment's warning the strikers rushed from be- hind a saloon where they were in hid- ing, and with a cry of Scab," began shooting into the orowd. A few of the workman were armed and returned the fire. The battle lasted about ttreemin- utes, in which about 30 shots were fir- ed, when the strikers fled. Four men were shot, two fatally. George Plumb, one of the workmen, was shot in the head and is expected to die, while T, Caldwell, another workman, was shot in the right leg and in the shoulder. Two a t' h strikers s we re shot,and one e will die, The one fatally injured is George Larsen. He was shot through the lungs. The other. whose name is Rixley, is not fatally injured. Several people were hit in the not, but their names could not be learned. The police made several arrests among the strik- ers. PRINCE OF WALES. Ills Il;ighnm Degaed by the London Tailors to Support the Morning and Frock Conte The London West end tailors are scandalized at the Prince of Wales, who allowed himself to be photographed in one of the recent wedding groups at- tired in a light check tweed "lounge and knickers." It is well known that. the Prince greatly favors the lounge suit; but the tailors of the West end say that "if the male representative of the Crown shows such a. decided pre- ference for garments of the three seam class, there will be many who will fol- low him, entailing startling violence to the laws of dress." Another tailor, who has cut for the Prince, adds to the horror of the situation by saying:— "We dread to think of what may hap- ctIonce ee e frock wdaniocoare negled, and tehven better scope for our workmen's skill than a three reamer. Then we shall have to say good-bye to high-class tail- oring." During his brief stay in London, the Prince's favorite vehicle is a private hansom of dark green pattern, drawn by a large dark bay, and guided by a driver in irreproachable drab livery. Seen driving recently, in Bond •street, the Prince was attired in regulation frock coat and silk bat. His arms rested negligently upon the door of his cab, and a. cigar of large proportion was between his fingers. Unable to raise his hat, he returned the frequent salutes accorded him with a wave of hi(s hand. NEW REVOLUTIONARY SOCIETY. Operating In Australia, *Honolulu and the United States—Overthrow of the Chinese Dynasty. According to a San Francisco paper a Revolutionary Society has been form- ed ormed in China for the overthrow of the present dynasty, and agents are now in that city seeking financial assistance. They are said to have met with much encouragement, and in a short time time they will proceed to action. The society, which is known as the Hing Chung Wolly, has already gained a firm footing among the Chinese of Honolulu and Australia, and its, emis- saries are now at work in Mexico. Pam- phlets issued by the society have been distributed among the Chinese in San Francisco, in which it is charged that the Emperor is lazy, and leaves the con- trol of the empire to Mandarins who are . treading on the working classes. Li Hung Chang is charged with traitor- ous conduct in connection with the late war with Japan, and facts which are now part of the history of China's defeat are cited to show that Li. Hung Chang's relations traded their honor for Japanese gold during the war be- tween the two countries. It is well known that the members of the local Chinese colony entertain a bitter hatred for Li Hung Chang, and there are but few who doubt that he would be taking a great risk with his life if he visited this city, and this ac- counts for his announced intention to return home by way of Vancouver. STREET -CAR COLLISION. A Trolley Dashes Into 'a Fire-Truett—One Fireman Killed and aeveral Inlared. A despatch from Buffalo, N.Y., says: —At daylight on Sunday morning fire truck, No. 6, with a crew consisting of seven firemen while responding to an alarm, collided with a trolley car at the oorner of Woltzavenue and Sycamore street. The truck was stretched across the street car tracks when the trolley which was running at full speed, struck it, Every fireman on the truck was in- jured. John F. Clarke was pinned und- er the track and crushed to death. His lungs were perforated by the round of a ladder. Fred Jacky went under the truck and receiveda cuncussion' of the seine. He cannot recover. The other injuries are:—Lieut. Hadden hip bruin - ed, Michael Rosenberger, left . lag sprain- ed and concussions; John W. Brechtel, knee sprained; Nicholas N. Oeller, hip bruised; Anthony Manhard, bruised. The motor .car was smashed to pieces, but the motorman eseaped with : but slight injuries. Both the moto renes conductor of the ' and car have been ar- rested. James .Cowan, the motorman, is blamable for the accident, as he says he heard the fdre gong, but did not slow, up, as he thought he could cross the street ahead of the truck. GOODFELLOW'S MISTAKE.

A. Eoy's Sudden Death From Internal Hemorrhage—Dies Within a Fesv Min Dates of Ills Seizure. A despatch from Toronto says:— Thomas Henry McCord, a boy fifteen. years of age, living at 11 St. Paul street, died under peculiar circum- stances on Tuesday night. About 9 o'clock he entered. Mr. J. R. Lee's drug store, King street east, bleeding frons the mouth and nose. Mr. Lee asked him if some had struck him, and be replied, "No; I am vomiting blood." DTr. Lee immediately saw that the boy was in a serious state and telephoned for Dr. Hastings, who arrived quickly, but in fiveinn m to after ter his arrival the boy died, having apparently rug- tured a blood 'vessel. ' The ciroum• stances of his seizure are not known, as be wars not able to tell anything about it hu itself and no one seems to have been with him at the time. Young McCord was an unusually tail boy for his age. He has grown very rapidly during the last year and a half, but was very thin, although he always appeared quite healthy until this spring. He was working in the factory of the Toronto Bisoult Company, and in his work had frequently to put his hand into a bin. Doing this bent one of his ribs, whioh pressed upon his heart, causing an occasional spitting of blood. Dr. Noble advised thatha should discontinue work in the biscuit factory and the bleeding stopped. The deceased since then had done nothing except for a few day; work in a brush. factory, where the work proved too hard for him and he had to stop it. A ROMAN CUSTOM. The practice of the wife assuming the husband's name at marriage, ac- cording to Dr. Brewer, originated from a Roman custom, and became the com- mon custom after the Roman occupa- tion. Thus Julia and Octavia, mar- ried to Pompey and Cicero, were called by the Romans Julia of Pompey, Oc- tavio of Cicero, and in later times mar- ried women in most European coun- tries signed their names in the same manner, but omitted the "of." Against this view it may be mentioned that during the sixteenth, and even at the beginuin„ of the seventeenth century, the usuage seems doubtful, since we find Catharine Parr so signing herself after she had been twice married and we always hear of Lady Jane grey (not Dudley), Arabella Stuart (not Seymour), etc. Some persons think that the cus- tom. originated from the scriptural teachingthat husband and wife are one. Tis was the rule so far back as Braston (died 1268), and it was decided in the case of Bon vs. Smith, in 'the reig i of Elizabeth, that a woman by marriage loses her former name and legally receives the name of her hus- band. Altogether, the custom is in- volved in much obscurity. In Iceland the opposite is the rule. There, after marriage the husband assumes the wife's name. DR. SPINNEY & CO.

Some millionaires during their lives appear to enjoy the luxury of prepar- ing at great expense the splendid maus- oleums they wish to occupy after death, M. Lalanne, a wealthy Parisian went to the other extreme. He had a horror of MAN ENGINE. anything like ostentation funerals, and -- after bequeathing over 1,000,000 francs Carlene Machinery in Use at a ;Stine in Cornwall. A very curious man engine is em- ployed at Trevesan mine, in Cornwall, a mine which is 300 fathoms deep. This engine has been constructed for lifting the miners and lowering them to their work, which is at a depth of 240 fath- oms, It has two parallel vertical rods provided with stages or platforms, which are reciprocated past each other, the stages being two fathoms apart; each rod receives a motion through the same distance., A man stepping on to a low- er platform is raised by the lifting of the rod which brings him to the level of the next on the other rod, which is then at its lowest position) On to this he steps; so he continues stepping from one to another, rising 12 feet between each step. The platforms are opposite to each other at the dead. points of the engine crank, and a slight pause is made while the miners step off and on. Thus strings of men can ascend with the slight to of stepping from one plat- form to another. POLICEMAN'S POCKET PHONE. One of the most useful additions that have recently been made to the equip- ment of some of the Newcastle (Eng- land) policemen is a pocket telephone. It is handy and light consisting of a combined mouthpiece and earpiece, with about a foot or more of wire attached, an affixing pin and a small key: This apparatus is to be used by the officers in connection with the fire alarms plac- ed at various parts of the city Instead of • breaking the pane of glass in case of a fire occurring in the neighborhood —as an ordinary individual would have to do—the policeman opens the door with his key, places the affixing pin in a socket provided for it, and is 3 dir- ect communication with the fire brig- ade. .
