"A meeting of engineers employed on sta
tionary engines was held last evening at the
hall No. 1349 Ridge avenue. The object of
the meeting was to mature plans for the
establishment of society for mutual proteo-
ton and the regulation of wages.
The meeting of the Philadelphia Con-
ference of Baptist Ministers was held yester-
day at the meeting house of the Olivet Bap-
tist Church. Rev. DIR. Pendleton presided,
and the meeting was opened with prayer and
singing. Reports were received from the
different churches, showing an accession to
the membership.
The name of Diamond street is likely to
be much better known to our citizens in the
future than in. the past. The street crosses
North Broad street, above the Monument
Cemetery, and is laid out on the city plan SO
that it strikes the Park at point below Lau-
rel Hill.
The owners of the ground fronting upon
this street, or at least very large majority of
them, have offered to Councils to widen it TO
seventy feet, and to pave it throughout with
Nicolson pavement this spring at their own
expense. All that is asked of the city is to
do what it invariably does in the case of
opening new streets, grade the roadway and
pave the intersections. This the city would
have to do at any time that the street should
be opened. The owners are ready to do their
share at once, and to give the extra ground
without compensation.
"A large meeting of the members of the
Bar was held yesterday at noon, in the Dis.
trict Court room, to take action in reference
to the death Of William Francis Judson
Hon. William S. Strong presided A series
of resolutions were adopted and ordered tC
be conveyed to the family of deceased.

loss from last year is over 1900. His ma
jority last year was 37S1. Stearns is probably
elected by from 1000 to 1900 majority.
The Legislature is Republican, with the ma
jority reduced from last year.
CoNcoBD, March S-11 p. M.-The Repub-
licans have probably elected six Senator's and
there will probably be two vacancies. The
Republicans have also elected three out of
five Councillors
One hundred and sixty-four towns give
Stearns PISS; Bedel, 1920; Flint, 5114,
and Barrows, 999. The returns SO far show
q net loss to Stearns of 1850 over last year.
March 81 A. M.-The returns show a
still further loss to Stearns, but indicate his
election by 1900 or 1900 majority. The re-
turns embrace about seven-eighths of the
State. The Democrats have probably elected
four Senators.
The Republicans have undoubtedly carried
the First, Second Third, Fifth, Seventh, and
Ninth Senatorial Districts. The Tenth and
Eleventh are conceded doubtful. The Re-
publicRns have carried four of the Councillors
Districts, and the Democrats one--the same
as last year. The House will show little
change, there being probably 40 or so Repub-
ican majority in that branch.

eff only that discovery had be-s,i made
earlier in my time," said great, nftatl .
er, "then we might now have seen, face to
face, the worlds greatest and best men
How good and gentle this youag girl
looks p and he gazed long at her through
| the glass. SHOW know her face, shall
recognize her at once, when she comes
in at the door," But that had very
nearly never come to pass luckily we at
home did no hear of the danger till it had
passed.
The young couple reached England
pleasantly and safely, and from there
they meant to go by steamer to Copen-
hagen. They were in sight of land
the Danish coast, and the white sandy
downs of the west coast of Jutland.
There was heavy sea, that thr~ncened to
dash the ship on the shore, ami no life
boat could get out to them. Then came
the night, dark and dismal; but in the
midst of the darkness came bright
blazing rocket from the shore, and shot
out far over the ship that was aground.
The rocket carried rope, that fell down
on the ship and thus the connection be-
tween those on shore and those on sea was
established. And soon, through the heavy,
rolling sea, the saving car being
drawn slowly toward the shore; ,ud in it
was a young and lovely WON a, alive
and well; and wonderful happy was she
when her young husband stood by her
side on the firm, sandy beach All on
board were saved, and that before it was
quite day.
We were sound asleep here il Copen-
hagen, thinking neither of sorrow nor
danger. When We were all assembled |
for breakfast came rumor, caused by a |
telegram, of the wreck of an English |
steamer on the west coast. We all grew
heart-sore and anxious but within the
hour came telegram from the dear ones,
who were saved, - Frederick and mis-
young wife,-who would soon be with u.s.
All cried | cried too, and great-grand-
father cried, and folded his hands, and -
am sure of it-blessed the present age.
That day great-grandfather gave two
hundred rix-dollars towards erecting the
monument of Hans Christian Orsted
When Frederick came home with his
young wife, and heard of it, he said
That was right, great-grandfather Now
I'll read for you what Orsted wrote,
many, many years ago, about old times
md new times !"
81 suppose he was of your opinion"
aid great-grandfather
"Yes, that you may be sure of" said |
frederick; land SO are you, for you have
lven something to this monument !" G
