the earliest moment, and all exhibited the
greatest sOlicitude for the sufferers. Some
remained at the church, others accompa-
MED the ambulances to this or that place,
while others worked without cessation at
the chapel. So much of suffering has not
previously been known in these parts, and
every one is moved to do all that lies in his
power.
1t is not too high to place the number
killed at forty and the injured at twice that
number.
DISCUSSING THE RESPONSIBILITY.
The question of the responsibility of this
horrible calamity is everywhere discussed
this evening. The fire caught from some
heated machinery. 1t does not appear
that there were any appliances for such an
emergency beyond a few pals of water. If
there was any apparatus it certainly was
capes on the sides of the buildings, but
none on tie ends where, in this instance
they would have been useful, and probably
assisted in the escape of everybody. The
signal of danger was sounded all through
the mill as early as possible; but panic
ensued, the flames swept on and escape
was impossible for many. Even the
elevator refused to work at the critical mo-
ment, or many might have been rescued by
that source. Another drawback was the
imperfect working of the fire alarm tele
graph; for at fret the wrong number of
strokes was sounded, and the fremen
were confused as to the proper location of
the fire, and when they did arrive on the
spot the saving of the building was an i'm
possibility. The management of the fire
and the capacity of the chief, as well as the
efficiency of the department in general, is
also freely criticised. 1t is probable that
an investigation into the cause and re-
sponsibility of the lamentable catastrophe
will be commenced on Monday, and the
verdict safely fled away with that rendered
by the Mill River inquisition last May.

A Musical Prodigy.
cincinnati Commercially

We saw, yesterday, at the Gibson House,
a little girl not quite tive years old, who is
becoming rapidly and justly celebrated as
a musical phenomenon. The name of this
wonderful child is Rose Mansfield Eversole,
and her father, DR.. A. G. Eversole, is o
practicing physician in Dayton, Ohio.
Rose is beautiful little creature, with
abundant fiaxen hair, fair complexion, and
large light blue eyes that are strikingy
expressive. She is plump and playful, and
enjoys the best health. Some of her genius
doubtless is inherited, as her mother is
accomplished in music, and her father is
very fond of it, though not skillful per-
former on any instrument. Several ex-
tended sketches of Rose have been pub
lished, in which the manifestations of her
singul ar power have been described. The
fact that she had unusual musical intuitions
was already observed before she was
year old. During the last two or three
years she has made countless improvisatiens
at the piano, striking at harmonies in cor
rect time and without any hesitation. In
deed, as her little fingers patter over the
keys, improvising sweet music, she seldom
looks at her hands, and seems rather to be
watchful of the faces and movements of the
persons looking on. Her parents have
carefully refrained from setting any tasks
for her. They permit her to choose her
own times for playing. Rose is their only
child, aad they are too intelligent to stim-
within prudent boundaries.
The little girl played for us yesterday a
number of familiar airs, including the;
march from "Norma,' Sweet Home,"'
and several of her own pretty compositions.
She instantly reproduced ON the piano the
pitch of arg note sounded by the voice, her
finger gliding straight to the right key by
some mysterious impulse. She lmprovised
march and q waltz, changing them into
minor keys whenever requested to do so.
Her improvisatons flow gently, but have
distinct sentiment and undoubted origi-
nality. One of the listeners yesterday,
when asked to sound any note with his
voice, said: Why, Rose, don't k,sow the
difference between Yankee Doodle and
Old Hundred" -" Wen," she replied,
looking up at him intently and opening
her large eyes to the fullest extent, Il do.'
The quaint emphasis she put on the last
word raised hearty laugh. She reads
printed matter as well as most children of
double her years, and this she has learned
her inquiries. While she was at the piano
yesterday, some children ran along the ball.
She turned her head to see their sport, aud
still her fingers, but shade larger than an
infants, kept on with the melody, and
perfect bass. There are a few instances
recorded of this form of musical genius, the
childhood of Mozart being the most uota-
bic. We should Judge from little Roses
appearance that sue is robust, happy, and
of an arch and cheerful disposition. What
her future development in music may be
cannot be predicted with certainty, but
she is beyond doubt now in the possession
of n musical gift which has no parallel in
this country.

Has not the time come to call on resolute
men VINO know the power OF the Press to
unite themselves in an association or con-
fraternity, whose special and exclusive aim
shall be the apostolate by means of the
Press. In the widest, most general sense of
the words; to gather together those who
oy their prayers, their devotion, and their
heroismS will consecrate themselves to the
Catholic Press, with but one purpose-to
labor by its means for the cause of the
Church and of Christ, and of the salvation
OF mankind. Love for Jesus Christ and
His Church will be their motive.

LIGHF WITHOUT MATCHEs.-To obtain
light instantly without the use of matches
and without the danger of setting things
on fire, take an ohlong phial of the whitest
and clearest glass; put in it piece OF
phosphorus about the size of q. pea, upon
which pour some olive OIL heated to the
boiling point, flling the phial about one
third full and then seal the phial heTmeti-
caly. To use it, remove the cork aud al
low the air to enter the phial, and then
recork it. The empty space in the bottle
will then become luminous, and the light
obtained will be equal to that of lamp.
AS soon as tho light grows weak its power
can be increased by opening the phiGll and
allowing fresh supply of arr to enter. 10
winter it is sometimes necessary to heat the
pbial between the hands to increase the (
huidity of the oil. Thus prepared, tns
phial may be used for six months. Tbs
contrivance is now used by the watchmen
OF Paris in all magazines where explosive
and inhammable materials are used.

A MARVELLOUS LEAF.

Only one person out of all who leaped
from the windows escaped without being
killed or terribly bruised This was lad
about sixteen years old and, incredible as
it may seem, I've jumped from the uuper
story aud landed on his feet and was only
somewhat Jared by his terrible leap. Be.
sides those who were killed by jumping
from the windows some were burned to
death, but exactly how many is not vet
known, as it is impossible To examine the
interior of the ruins at this writing There
were indeed numerous scenes of the most
narrowing description. Mothers, fathers.
brothers and sisters were running hither
ard thither in wild despair, seeking to learn
the fato of their kindred, and the ground
around was covered with the dead and
wounded. Nearly all were children of ten
der years, and the piteous mnans of the
manned that filled the air were truly ago
niZtng.
Miss Smith, IA girl who was among the
saved, says that her first knowledge of i'm
pending danger was from some girls at the
other end of the room running toward her
and crying, many of them so
terror stricken that their limbs became
almost useless. Some of them she saws
were praying, others wildly lamenting, and
others, who were so paralyzed with fear,
stood in mute agony and seemingly almost
unconscious of their danger. The hero of
the calamity is a young fellow named Bos- |
worth, who lowered one woman on the end |
OF rope and then took another in his |
arms and descended safely with her down |
the same rope to the ground. A moment |
later and the flames had burned the upper |
End of the rope so that it was no longer |

of, made his exit to the roof by means of |
