Of loose rubbish and stupid denuncia-

this sort Of 4Slogieal rhetoric. Senator

nounced that if Congress should pass
the Porter bill, that then the American
people might be convinced '' that to
insure proper discrimination between

1t has often been noticed that an
Englishman travelling in America finds
few things SO strange and foreign to all
his habits of thought as Indian corn. His
doubts and difficulties at the dinner
table as to how to proceed when he first
meets a boiled ear of corn, are apt to be
comical, to say the least; while his ex-
pressed opinion upon the flavor of corn
cake is not infrequently the reverse of
complimentary.

A Roman Child's TOYS.

I was present the other day at Rome,
when the cinerarium of boy, certain
Hyllus, page to Tiberius, was discovered.
His poor little bones had been inclosed
in the vase together with his favorite
toys. There was a small terra-cotta
chicken, painted in bright colors, and a
fragment of a puppet, in the shape of our
pulcinellas, with clay bust, arms and
legs of wood. The wood naturally was
gone. Who would have thought that
these miserable playthings of an obscure
child should have, centuries after, the
unexpected honor of being exhibited in
one of the most famous museums of Eu-
ropep--Atteng9na.

InE"AsAx"IN MINIATURE,
A Neat and Isgenious Piece OF
work.

Samuel Johnson, the captain of the
steames "Sawuel N. Felton," has in
geniously wrought a fac-simile Of the
"Ajax," the National Dredging Co. Is
machine, which Ia now stationed near
the mouth Of the Christiana creek. The
ajax" is 92 feet long, 50 feet wide and
10 feet deep, but the model is built on
a scale Of one-fourth of an inch to the
foot. The deck is painted a light brown
ish color, and is strewn with all the ar
ticles generally seen upon the deck Of
a vessel. In the fore part are two small
hatchways, and also crane, from which
is suspended the iron bucket used in
scooping out mud from the bottom of
creek. The sides of the model are paint
ed a leadish color, striped with black
Erected upon the deck is the cabin, in
the rear of which is a boiler and en-
gine. TIE cabin contains other kinds
Of machinery. The exterior Of the cabin
Is painted lead color. Suspended from
the davits is a small row boat and the
cabin is surmounted by several pipes
and whistle. The model has been
presented to Joshua Johnson, the cap
tain Of the "Ajax," and is now exhib-
tied in the Office Of the National Dredg-
ing Co., on French street between Front
and Second. 1t possesses neat and
attractive appearance and is credit to
the designer.

Iugenious Flre-buEs.

Know what q fre-bug Is Not bug
that can live in fire, but an incendiary.
The Chief Engineer Of the Brooklyn
Fire Department tells Of strange de-
vice Of q fre.bug to set q house on fire
and then to make it appear accidental.
IIc kept q clothing store; business
wasn't good, so he insured 1t, and 1t
was found on fire one night while he
was at the theatre, with witness, Of
course. The department put II ont, and
then the chief Investigated the cause.
He found in the store the emaciatsd
bodies of three dead cats, ring of
wire, a broken kerosene lamp and q
dried fish, partly eaten. The merchant
had starved the cats two or three days
till he got them into condition to attack
any food with ardor. Then he placed
q kerosene lamp close to the edge Of his
counter, and put this wire hoop strung
with fish around the lamp. As he went
away he released the cats, and when
they found the fish, the only food in
the place, they began to pull at 1t, and
naturally pulled the lamp of the
counter. When 1t struck the floor it
broke, the flames met the oil and there
was fire. And yet they couldn't get
enough evidence to arrest him on.
Another Brooklyn man, when business
was bad, insured his store, kindled a
tremendous FIRE in the stove, turned on
the unlighted gas and went home. When
the place became filed with gas there
was a big "burst-up" and all the fire
he wanted.

BUFFALO, N. Y, May 18.-There has
been no fight, and cunning Barney
Aaron is triumphant in his determine
ton to prevent the fistic encounter be-
tween "Joe" Goss and PADDY" Ryan.
This about sums up the whole story
with regard to the result of the project
ed fight between these two men for the
heavyweight championship of America
and $1,000 in cash which was to have
taken place yesterday. Ryan's friends
outnumbered those Of Goss ten to one.

the youthful and herculean aspirant
for pugilistic honors, and Barney Aaron

John Vvanamaker.

We clip the following extracts from
Forney's "Progress, in the article
entitled "Alternate Letters from 'wo
Great Cities" and thus present them
TO a perusal Of our readers:
Southeast of the great square Is
another suggestive panel in the psno-
rama OF the puissant present; John
Waramaker's Grand Depot. In the
centre you have the palace Of the
modern municipality; in the northwes'
corner the gigantic hotel in process o.
construction by corporate sagacity; In
the southeast the startling monument
Of individual daring and confidence
These tripartite fruits Of the age are moi
often typifed in SO small a space. Ar
in railroads, art in architecture, art in
trade, are rarely SO signally symbol
lied. In John Wansmaker's example
you have the ease that springs from
system, the comfort that comes from
order, the labor wrought by machinery,
the tremendous rewards Of mathsmati-
cal accuracy. Silence is the parent Of a
thousand blessings, and nothing that
proceeds from science is more sublime
and all conquering than the matchless
success in the increase Of human hap
piness and the diminution Of human
toll. In that sense kr. Wansmaker's
Grand Depot is a great scheme. Sew.
enty years ago, the Conestoga wagons,
on their way TO Pittsburg along the
great pike, travelled half a centary before
the Cumberland road was opened by
the General Government: and when
that noble highway was the chief path
to what was the Great West, limited
by the Ohio River, these same Cones
toga wagons stopped in Centre Square,
opposite the spot now filed by John
Wanamaker's oaravansera.
How different from the contents OF
the great trains nov sent cut from John
Wanamaker's packed depot every day,
every train taking ten times more and
carrying it twenty times more rapidly
than these rude wagons made fifty years
ago In the olden time nothing was
sent but what was necessary. Luxu-
ries were as scarce as ice or ice cream.
Now the bulk Of Mr.. Wanamaker's
trade are the Injuries Of life. Food is
made where it grows; clothing is the
produc. Of the earth and the skill Of
the hands. Man lives rather TO enjoy
than to work out life, and the business
of pleasure enriches thousands.

A SUDDEN DEATH.
Thomas q. Poole ss seized with a
HoEaOrrhage and Dies.

MIR. Thomas s. Pool, son of the late
larnented J. Morton Poole, and a meni-
ber OF the J. Morton Poole Machine CON-
pany, died suddenly at his residence
No. 200 Washington street, this city,
yesterday afternoon. He had been at
tending to business matters in various
parts of the city yesterday morning.
1t seemed to his friends that he was
enjoying better health that usual. He
ate a very hearty dinner. Shortly
afterwards he was seized with a spell
of violent coughing, which resulted in.
hemorrhsge. This resulted in his
death in very short time. Although
consumptive since boyhood Mr. Poole's
health has lately improved much, and
his sudden death causes much surprise.
Mr.. Poole was an active member Of
the j. Morton Fc.,iU Machine Company,
and has been in the firm sinse 1866.
He was born in December 1S42, and.
leaves a wife and one child. The fu-

trade unions, which says: ''Lst every
one remember that q mans labor is his
own and that 1t is his liberty to sell II
at whatsoever price he pleases. He
has the same control over his labor
that man has over his own farm
Therefore labor unions sin grievously
against justice whenever they attempt
to force men to join these unions or TO
work for the price fixed by these un-
ions. We warn Catholics not
10 be in any manner partners
in any attempt to force others by VIC
leDce or otherwise to enter these u
Mons or to work at the prices fixed by
these societies. Any Catholic who
shall attack or censpire to attack any
person because such person works, has
worked or Is willing to work at q price
which he thinksit shall be excommun-
icated. The absolution from this sin
and excommunioation is hereby pre-
served to US and our Wears General" I"
