A blaze from one of the gas gets COM

number of people made rush for the

narrow. A number Of children scream

was resumed when quiet was restored

Tie report OF the select senate committee ON
the subject oi fraud in the last presidential
election makes ont a curious case against
Rhode Island The constitution and laws OF
that little pocket state prescribe for iorci rucrS
this SPECIAL qualification additional to those
prescribed for uativC,bon vOters-that they
shall posSc-- ) 1874 worth of uulucumbcrcd
real estate or real estate that yields rental OF
s. year. This iuoh, like "a very moderate
allowance; but IN that little state where real
estate is very scarce II is NO easy thing for II
foreigner to possess $ l3l worth; he cannot
well own real estate at nj, unless he owns ten
times ) TT WORT. Witnesses estimate the
number OF foreigners deprived of the suffrage
by this provision at > 600 To- p 600, and the
senate committee estimate the population they
represent at 900, They further declare that
The state has one more presidential cCCtOr
than it would he entitled 10 under "a strict en-
lOryrmCut or the fourteenth amendment, and
This one surplus plcCtor actually elected the
present incumbent Of the presidential Office,
since the electoral vote IN 1876 as finally set
lied was: HAYES, iSj; TLDEN, lSt. Had
Rhode island possessed only the number of
electoral votes that strict Interpretation ofthe
fourteenth amendment would give her the
electoral vote, as adjusted by the electoral
commission would have stood HAYES, lS4:
TIpEN, lS4-a tie; in which case the house
would have possessed the right to elect the
president.
But the Republican party in Rhode Island
do not disiIauChi~C tOrcgH-bOm citizens alone.
They have ingcniously framed the election
laws so as to operate to the great disadvantage
of the laboring classes who are largely employ
ed in factories The polls close at sunset, and
the registry polltaX eXactcd as prerequisite
to voting must be paid ten months before the
election in presidential year; and to those
features of tAe election laws say the committee,
many intelligent citizens ascribe the small
percentage of voters among her people and the
large amount Of corruption practlscd in elect
ions in the state, '-Er.

other things injurious to the memory. One Is
the habit of sklmming over newspapers, items

4 CIi2cn of Marshall Illinois, Is making a
three months tour through the Southern states
ard writing to the Marshall Messenger series
of letters descriptive of his trip. Writing, a
few days ago, from La Grange, Georgia, he
says:
Here, as in every other place in Georgia, in
which we have stopped, we are very hospita.
bly, received, and all seem willing to give us
all the information within their power. The
people of the state generally desire northern
mimi grafton to this country, and, i'll my opin
ion, northern and central Georgia presents OPP
portunitics to the entcrprlsing immigrant not
cXcclled by any state or territory. They are
welcome here, and just as safe as in Illinois
for, as far rs my observation goes, crime of all
kinds Is punished with Is much rigor as in
our own country.

SILK and Religion.

In small pamphlet, reprinted from Il
monthly magazine, Mr. Il. j. Wathcrston gives
an account of the silk factory at Jujurleux, in
Burgundy. The founder of the factory was "A
Monsieur Bonnet the son of an agricultural
labOrcr in JuiurcuX, who had made "A fortune
at Lyons as II silk manufacturer. The use to
which he put his money was the improvement
of his native village. lie drained the ground,
rebuilt the houses, and finally started silk fac.
tory with the view of finding employment tor
the girls of the district. His object was not
only to make these girls dexlcrous workwomen,
but also to give them good general education
and To start them III life for themselves. He
began by gaining the help of the bishop of the
diocese, who provided him with picked body
of nuns to take charge of the factory. The
Sisters of st. Joseph" train the girls, superln
tend their work, keep The accounts, and gener
ally manage the business. There are 400 APP
prenticcs taken between the ages of thirteen
and fifteen, iwho bind themselves, after proba
ton of SIX months, tO remain in the factory fol
four years. During this time they are clothed
boarded and lodged they receive good prac
tcal education including cookery and dress
making: and they are paid salary rising from
g a year to SO, besides premiums for careful
work, which are given in return for marks
kept from day TO day and made public every
week. The system Is one OF strict seclusioi
and supervisor. The apprentices see no on'
but the nuns and on Sunday they go to
chapel of their own within the grounds. Thu
factory was started IN 1850 and the demand TO
admission is far greater than the number q
vacancies can satisfy. The cause Of this popu
larity Is in part that the nuns make their ar
preniices not only good silk workers but goo,
wives The girls are known TO be wei
brought up, well educated, capable of earning
their living Unnecessary by thaE trade, and abl
to bring their husbands a " dot of from COG

of the girls while they are IN the factory. a
