Senator Bayard at Baltimore

Saturday afternoon, the annual
banquet of the Baltimore Press As
sociaLion was given at the Eutaw
ii use, Baltimore, and was attended
by President Hayes, Senator Bay
ard, Of this State, and other distln-
guished guests. Senator Bayard re-
sponded TO the toast, "COnsider the
Peaches how they Crow" and,
when he rose to his feet, received a
welcome which almost amounted to
An ovation. lie said: ut would

of course, no reporters present,

duty and pleasure to be with you
to night. l have known editors both
single and married, and for the lat

now come the associated editors and
what shall / say TO them? The
potentialitles OF your profession
have been spoken Of in terms not too
extravagant, and due tribute has
been paid to you in your position
as educators.
But let me, as your friend, say one
word TO you as to your responsibility.
1t is an excellent thing TO have
giants strength, but 1t is tyrannous to
to use it like gaint. Above the
sUrging mass of human passions. called

and majestic institution. 1t was born

Of any function which demands higher
qualities, nor a calling which needs
more delicate consideration, . strictsr
idea Of responsibility, higher s.nse OF
justice and finer perception Of per.
sonal honor.
AL these things ought to teach Fuch
men to use their powers with a due
sense Of their high responsibility.
Even when parties are in accord there
is need for wholesome restraint, and
much more so when opposing parties
are struggling for power. Never
therefore, forget your responsible

sion let me propose this toast:

FIRE ON sHIPLEY STREET.

A few minutes after 10 O'Clock this
morning, Tn mas 8. Pugh, a reporter
on the Morning Netos discovered smoke
issuing from the cellar of house on
Shipley street above Sixth, He i'm.
mediately preceded to investigate the
cause and found that the saloon of
Louis Raymond, No. e13 Shipley, was
Oh fi;e. He then ran to the police of.
fee and gave the alarm. With the
assistance Of a number of compositors
in the Netos Office, the Water Witch
engine and hose carriage were run out
aud plug stream put on. The fire
seemed to be confined o the cellar i'm
mediately beneath the front window.
The flames burned q portion of the
first floor aud some few articles in the
cellar. The cause is unknown as there
was no fire about the place. 1t is the
general opinion that it was the work
Of au lncendiary. Mr.. Raymond does
not know what his damage will amount
to, but he is fully insured. Sergeants
Whelan, Legg and Dolan, and officers
Benhardt, Chambers and Thomas
rendered good service in suppressing
the flames. Mr.. Raymond did not
know of the fire until this morning, as
he resides at Rockland.

idence of his uncle Delaplaine Nc.

ST. VALENTINES DAY.

To-day (Feb. I4tL) is ST. Valentines
day, aud III accordance with the usual
custo ON, the mails are filled with sweet
scented missiyes and horrid Ourlesquss,
the former being a medium Of exchange
between tender lovers, AID the later be-
ing used by practical jokers TO "set 1t on
their friends" The burlesques are about
the same as ever, save more highly color
ed, but iu the fancy valentines new and
costly designs have been intrduced.
Some of the latter are after the manner
of costly ball programmes, with hearts,
and doves, and tender sentiments sub
stituted for the order of dancing. The
mo I elaborate are rather costly, and
while being sentimental enough to please
the most romantic maiden also possess a
merit tba. renders them very worthy and
acceptable presents. Although new in
the market the demaud for them was

5-CENT FARES THE wHoLRDAY.

tits quite probable that the bill to
compel the New York Elevated rail.
roads to reduce their fare to five cents
during all hours of the day will be call
ed up iu the Legislature again al an
early day and pressed to passage. Last
year it got throught the Assembly and
was beaten In the Senate. 1t was pref
ty widely circulated at the time that
many members of the Senate voted No,
because they had been kindly allowed
blocks of Elevated stock at reduced
price, which it was benefcently shown
them would increase to an enormous
price az soon as the Senate defeated the
bill. When the bill was defeated by
the purely conscientious efforts of these
Senators, however, q curious result fol-
lowed. The stock, which was to rise so
rapidly and so high and make the for
tunes of the conscientious Sen ators, act
ually fell and left one or two of them
to pay heavy margin for the privilege
of carrying out the schemes of the ele-
Vated managers.

POLICE ITEMS.

For the past three weeks tramps
have become a source of great an
noyanee to the police. Every night,
hearty, robust men apply at the sta
ton house for lolging. The majority
of those who apply are professional
tramps and will not work under any
circumstances. They travel from city
to city and annoy the citizens by beg
ging for food and clothes. If wearing
apparel of any kind is given to them,
IN most cases they dispose of them and
buy whisky. There is hardly morn
ing passes at the police hearings that
two or three tramps are not placed in
the dock, and committed to New Gas
tle as vagrants. At the hearing this
morning John Douglass appeared in
the box with his head bandaged up.
He stated that while walking along
the railroad he slipped and fell from a
bridge, cutting his head very badly
lie was committed for Is days.
Charles Garrett went into The office
last night drunk and the Chief locked
him up. Thirty days was his sen>

A CORNER" IN PROVISIONS.
CHICAGO. Feb. 13. 1881.

The Tribune says ga 'corner' in
the provision market is in progress
which dwarfs any previous manipula-
tion, even the great one OF last year.
Within a week there have been pur-
chased 5000, 900 pounds of short ribs,
"a, 900 barrels of pork and 10, 600 lierces
of lard. The parties intel ested are
mainly the ones who directed the suc-
cesstul operation a year ago, and it is
their intention to put prices far above
the present prevailing rates."
