OK Friday the country was thrown
into state of excitement by the an
nouncement that the Philadelphia &
Reading railroad and coal and iron
company could no longer meet their
payments. The price of the stock
sold down to ten dollars & share.
The sufferers will be the people who
hold the paper of the company.
However affairs may turn, there is no
probability of the industrial interests
which the company administered suf-
fering permanently. The coal is in
the hills, Just as it was before the
failure miners are ready to dig it
out, and there is population ready
to consume it as fuel. The rail
road is in complete running order,
and as everywhere else where rail
roads have been built, it is the high
way over which produce and mer-
chandise and travel passes to and fro,
and as there is no probability that
railroads are to-be abandoned for the
old-fashioned pike with its conestoga
wagons as freight vehicles, and
coaches-and-four for passenger car
riages. There is no need of alarm on
the part of the public generally.
Even if railroads were to be aban
doned as freight, produce and pas
senger routes of travel, the public
generally would not suffer as greatly
as those who are connected with the
roads, with their business, and at
tached to it by bond or paper con-
nection. The probability is, that the
Philadelphia and Reading railroad
will go on in its work just as in the
days gone by. ALI right-feeling peo-
pie hore to see it speedily restored

"JUsTICE GORDON, of the Supreme
Court, has delivered an opinion in the
case of the borough of Norristown VS..
Alice Fitzpatrick, which raised the
question SIS to the liability of the Dor
ough for the negligence of its police
men. On December 81, 1875, party
of thirty citizens, nearly all of whom
we're drunk, paraded the streets Of Nor
ristown. At ! p NJ. they discharged a
small cannon several times. At nine
O'Clock they began firing on the main
streets Alice Fitzpatrick, aged seven
teen years, was crossing the street, when
the wad from the cannon struck her in
the face, totally destroying one eye and
causing Disagreement of one side Of
her face. A verdict on the facts was
given in her favor for $500, the ques
ton of law being left to the court as to
whether the borough was liable for the
negligence of It's policemen, one Of
them having witnessed the firing with.
out interfering to stop it. The court
below decided in favor of Miss Fitz-
patrick, which is reversed by the Su-
preme Court"

If the drought has shortened the
hay and grain crops for the coming
season, there is still no famine in the
land, as is the case in Persia An
American missionary writes from
Oroomiah, North Persia: "a great
famine prevails here. Grain sells at
eleven times the ordinary rates. Rice
has risen enormously, and the people
are living largely on scanty roots.
Robberies are becoming alarmingly
frequent Reports from Kurdistan
are equally distressing. From this
city (Oroomiah) to the Tigris famine
is alike severe. May the Lord have
mercy upon the land"

The prediction has been made that
in 1900, church buildings will be re-
duced iD size built large enough only
to hold the preacher, the choir, and q
number of praying members. The
congregation will not attend upon wor-
ship in the church building, but at
stated hours will assemble in their re-
spective homes, or houses, where they
will, by telephone communication with
the little church building, hear the
choir sing, hear the minister preach,
End hear the praying members, all the
same as if they were present in one
large room. Certainly the mind that
proposed such system of church wor-
ship is thinking mind, but the system
seems to be defective in its social quail
ity. 1t is true that it might suit peo-
pie who are largely spiritual in their
religion, but most people are not
largely spiritual in their religion. Sight
and fellowship enter into the religion
of the average man and woman the
social impulses are the mainsprlngs
of a great deal of the religion of
the world, and have more influence
than spiritual matters and for that
reason the telephone system of re-
l,glon must needs be a failure. Peo
pie like the magnetism Of q crowd ;
they like to 60 to church to see each
other, to talk to each other, and sit by
each others side. Ali the pleasure
there is to be experienced in congre-
gstional meeting, must be put aside
when people consent to receive the sing
ing of the choir, the preaching of the
minister and the prayers Of the praying
members of the flock on cords through
the walls of their houses, from the
church that may be mile away. If,
however, 1t is true that the people who
call themselves the religious people of
the world. do not of necessity have to
assemble in congregations for worship I;
IL il is true that there is more religious
devotion IN congregational meetings
than social impulse and social desires,
then indeed may the telephone system
become the leading system. There is
something exceedingly nice to realize
that place may be located, from which
wires or cords may lead out in all di-
rections to one hundred or to fiye hun
dred houses, in each of which the fam
lily may assemble at stated hour, and
hear prayer, singing, and preaching
from the church. Such system does
bring US all TO closer realization Of
the belief that the throne of Deity is
the center of the universe, and that
this globe, and every other sphere in
space that is inhabited by people, is
connected by unseen cords or conduc.
tors that convey even the thoughts of
people to the center of the universe,
Just as word spoken in family con-
nected by telepbons would be conveyed
to the telephone church, where the
preaching, singing and prayer may be
carried on. Upon the telephone chul ch
theory system it is not difficult to real
ize that Deity may have the whole
universe so constructed that every ex-
preston of sound and thought may be
instantly carried TO the center of the
universe, the place of Gods abode.
