whether he had the power 70 commit I"' WI"
tenant. aud admitting that he bad not, expressed
the hope that the lawyers would behave them
selves for the sake Of the profession. Whereupon
Mr.. Root and Mr.. Andrews passed the rest OF
the day smiling sarcastic smiles at eaeh o'her'
and intercbanging with the Hottest courtesy
doubts of each others good faith.
If the Board of Aldermen would adopt the
oranre-peel ordinance, which they yesterday
re;ected. then reconsidered, and then laid on
the table, they would perform an act of real
service TO the community, and men would be
temnted. for once, to rise up and call them
blessed. The habit of throwing banana and
orange skins on the sidewalks is born of care
lessness which amounts TO downright malice
and it seems to be growing rather than dnilh-
ishing. There are persons, for example, VINO
seem to take especial care 10 throw these man
trans on the sidewalks in wet weather, Wheh
n banana peel is almost as dangerous 10 Ire
as a glass bomb. A fine of five dollars, or, when
the offender was too poor to pay it, a brief
STAY in the lookup, would teach these people
a good lesson in municipal manners. This
NAV be regarded as a trihing abuse, but it is
one which is as much in need of check as
many another.
Mr.. Bradlaugh was the centre of an extraor-
binary scene in the House of Commons last
night. When he appeared and demanded to
be allowed to take the oath, Sir stafford
Northcote the Conservative leader, moved
that he be not permitted to take 1t. Against
this motion such men as John Bright and Dr.
Labouchere met il protesting, Mr.. Bright
taking the strong ground that inasmuch as Mr.
Bradlaugh held an oatl to be binding on his con-
science. the House could not deny him the night
to take it. The most dramatic episode
of all ensued when Mr. Bradlaugh, by permits
sion of the House, ds clared that he should so
regard an oath, and Mr.. Gladstone reminded
the members that whore there was no legal dis
ability the House cou q not create one. New
ertbeless Sir Stafford NOrthcote's motion was
adopted by a vote of 200 to 175, amid great
cheers from the Conservatives. When Mr..
Bradlaugh then renewed his demand, the
Conservative leader now practically be-
come the leader Of the House, called
upon Mr. Gladstone TO state whether he IN
tended to carry ont the resolution to which
he replied, perhaps little tatly, that he
could not take that function out of the hands
of the majority. Mr. Bradlaugh was finally
removed by the SeIgeant-at-Arms, and the
House adjourned. 1t was a singular triumph
of prejudice over parliamentary law and COM
mon sense.

Senate yesterday passed bill exemptng from state

is to tax the capital invested in them whether 1t IL

which our shipping interest is burdened and crippled

worlds carrying trade. The Importance of rcSain-
ing our lost position on the high seas has been
talked about for fifteen years, but this movement
Of the Ncw-lork Legislature is. so far as we can
rccocct the first really valuable practical step III

a law and that other States will follow the example

majority in both houses. Congress We may hope.
Will give the subject some earnest and intelligent
attention. Mcanw While, let the States do what they

A new variety of danger presented itself
yesterday in connection with the telegraph
wlres A wire across the Bowery broke,
was carried by the engine of an elevated rail-
road train until it struck q horse-car in the
street below, narrowly missed the driver,
tangled itself about the car, was again caught
by another elevated railroad train and no vio-
lently thrown about that three OF the windows
i'm the horse-car were broken. Nobody hurt,
but somebody might have been. 1t is easy TO
imagine that passenger might have lost an
eye or suffered even more serious damage.
The accident was phenomenal one-but rare
as it is likely to be, it could never happen
with the wires underground.

Faith Convention ct Old orchard.


Monday, the fifth day of the campmeeting,
at the dawning of the morning and before the
mist had cleared away, the people assembled
for prayer and praise, and again at 8 O'Clock
for the regular morning conference service
DR.. Cullis being in charge. The meeting was
opened by several musical selections by the
choir and solo by Judge Lowe of Ohio. A
large number of requests for prayer-one hum
dred and twenty-four-were read by DIR. Gull
lis, who, after solo sung by Miss Maggie
Luce, read and commented on words selected
from Luke Ia and 70. DR.. Cults maintained
that no sin is necessary in our everyday life
God saves from all sin, be it most or least. The
meeting being then thrown open to all, some
seventy-fve testimonials were given in quick
succession.
At 1885, after prayer by Rev. Mr.. Stimp-
son of New York, Judge Lowe gave Bible
reading, the subject of which was The Temple
and the Glory. AS the old Temple of God
was filed by the effulgence of His glory, so
now Gods people, the new temples, are filled
by sanctifcation with His glory. Mrs. Talbot
concluded the service with prayer

The great service Of the day, however, and

| would be devoted to the subject of faith cures
| and as the hour approached large audience
| gathered around the stand, some coming from
motives of amusement, many from curiosity,
the most evidently ready to yield implicit Gre
| dence to the wonderful accounts that were to
follow. DIR. Cults made some introduc tory
remarks wherein he said that every promise in
the Bible means just what it says. Repeatedly
we are there told that the prayer of faith, and
the laying on of hands, can cure men, body as
well as soul. He gave several cases in which
disease had been suddenly and effectually
made to cease. In one instance, lady in Ken
lucky suffering from severe illness wrote him
for prayer and the next week she was we'll. A
man who was completely paralyzed was prayed
| for and in fortnight he was walking about,
being perfectly restored on the day he was
prayed for. If this is animal magnetism, said

A Station Agent Removed.

For some time past Mr.. Cornelius Stilphen
the station agent at Glen Station, on the Og-
deEsburg, has failed to render his accounts
to the company promptly. 1t was ascer-
tanned by the company that Mr.. Stilphen al
lowed parties, who had freight sent to them,
to remove it from the station before the
freight charges were paid. The company did
not doubt Mr.. Stilphen's honesty but they felt
there was no use in rules if they were to be ig-
nored, and the orders of the company explicit
~ forbid the agents to allow freight to be re-
moved till the charges are paid. Mr.. Stilphen
foolshly ran off, leaving a note stating he
should not come back, but he reconsidered and
returned to Glen station Saturday. In the
meantime President Anderson appointed Mr..
Burnell of West Baldwin, station agent in his
place. The amount of Mr. Stilphen's indebt-
edpess is not exactly known; it may be $1,000;
but he is worth several times the amount of
his Indebtedness. He runs a large boarding
house at Glen station, is very good hearted,
amiable man, and President Anderson says he
has no doubt Mr.. Stilphen is perfectly honest,
but he is too careless in the managem emit of
affairs

Seaside Accidents at Kennebunkport.


Sunday afternoon four year old son of Mr..
Henry M. Mailing of Portland when frolick-
ing with the large family dog was thrown over
on the stone doorstep, and catching his
tongue between his teeth nearly severed a
substantial portion Of the unruly member, it
needing especial attention in stitching. The
lad was taken by private team to Portland for
surgical operation.
Sunday noon, while bathing with other lady
friends upon the beach opposite the Ocean
Bluff Hotel, Miss Hooper Of Arlington,
Mass, got into deep water where strong
flood tide took her feet from the bottom and
swept her in by the end of the stone pier,
where she ywould have persisted but for the
very prompt, courageous and efficient action
of Miss Dunbar Of Boston, boarder at the
Cliff House, who had not taken off her bath
ing suit, but was standing on the rocks. This
young lady, only about 10 years of age, in
stantly realized the peril and rushed dellber-
ately into the tide, and brought the drowning
girl where she could be taken on to the pier.
After several fainting turns and hysteric at
tacks, and the care Of two physicians, Miss
Hooper recovered and was able to leave the
next dav for Massachusetts,
