RAGE IN FRANCE AT ENGLANn,s ACTIoN.

LoND0N. Aug. 22.-The majority of the French
papers comment very mfayorably on the action Of
the British in occupying the Sue7 Canal.
The Steele describes the seizure of the canal as the
Act of a thief La France expresses a similar opin-
ion. The TIeWdpke urges the Canal Company to
sue England FOR damages.
The Paris NJ. Gambetta's paper, declares that if
the policy of NJ Ganbetta had been followed the
country would have been spared the humiliation OF
of seeing the canal made a branch of st. Georges
Channel
The Temps believes that England Will per-
nnanenty remain mistress Of the canal, but Is H.
1lined to acqmesce IN such settlement as adyan-
tageous to European interests.
The Journal des DeJats says As the Chambers
declined 10 allow France 10 cooperate WIN Eng
land we have no right to reproach England with

Temperance and OWL Service Reform.

10 the Editor orthe Nebraska Advertiser.
At present Ann Arbor is undergoing
an agitation on Temperance and Civil
Service Reform. Both principles are
strictly advocated and supported by
thriving associations. Michigan some
years ago. we believe, was numbered
among the prohibition states, but In
the year 1876 or thereabouts, the legis.
lature repealed all existing laws, and
the lowing beverage is now accessible
III every village and household. Sa-
looms are licensed for a mere nominal
sum, and what few restrictions that
are imposed upon the sale of intoxlcat-
ing drinks, do not constitute much OF Il
burden upon the saloon keepers. We
suppose the temperance people are
laboring TO reinstate the old order of
affairs. The Ann Arbor Law Lecture
Course, as it is called, has prepared for
MS list of notable temperance orators
The first on the list was Hon Neal
Dow, the temperance war horse from
Maine. He gave MS very good talk
devoting most of his time however, to
the Maine liquor law. II was amusing
TO see with what earnestness he com
batted the different newspaper criti-
cisms that had been published concern
ing this subject. la commenting upon

The New York Tribune was the on
~ gudgeon that swallowed as a precious
morsel Guiteau's story of receiving
checks from the stalwarts of New
York and Brooklyn. 1t jumps at the
text given him blythe assassin to say:
Who are these stalwarts who are so
anxious to save from punishment the
most depraved murderer of the age?
1t would be more sensible to enquire
who are those half breeds that sent
bogus checks to the assassin to create a
false impression by the drawings OF
the most depraved murderer unhung.
We would suppose Whitelaw Reid had
a hand in it, as he is up to exceedingly
small work.

THIS MORNINGS FIRE.
The Most Disastrous COnhagration That Has
Occurred in Los Angsles-A Business Block
Entirely Destroyed Brave Work Of Our
Volunteer Firemen.

AT balf.past one o'clock this
morning smoke was discovered is
suing from the cellar of the E'pe-
sranzs Store, on Main street, oppo-
cite the Court Honse. An alarm
was given and almost Immediately
the firemen were on the ground.
On breaking open the door the
smoke WAS found to proceed from
the cellar, but, as there wac 10
opening from the street, it was i'm
possible TO reach it. Several of
the firemen attempted to get to the
back stairway leading to the cellar,
but they were obliged to give up
the effJrt on account of the dense,
suffocatipg smoke. Soon the
flames burst through the rear of
the roof, communicating to the
buildings adjoining on tbs sides
and rear, extending down to Los
Angeles street. The kitchen of'the
Occidental Restaurant, after the
fire burst forth, was among the
first to catch and soon succum bed
to the flames. The fire then ex-
tended to the fronts on Main street
-Vignolo's, Harper. Reynolds &
Co.'S, d. Nsgle's and the saloon OF
John Bobeureith were all on fire,
The flames from the latter com.
municated to the portico of the
Uuited States Hotel, the holiday
evergreen decorations depending
from which lent fury to the
flames. BY the almost superhu-
man exertions of the firemen the
fire Was checked in this direction,
and the ravages of the destroying
element restricted to the block OF
one story buildings between the
United States Hotel and the Car.
dona Block. At a quarter before
three o'clock an explosion occurred
In VignOlO's store, which not only
scattered the fremen momeD tarily,
but added fiercer force to the flames.
The firemen soon recovered from
the temporary scare and went to
work with renewed vigor, and at
this hour, 3:iU A. M, the fire is
coDfined to the one story buildings,
which with their contents are
total ruin, between the United
States and the Cardona building.
OF the amount of the loss we can
at present form no estimate. The
loss in goods alone of Messrs A.
Vignole q Sons, Harper, Reynolds
q Co., and d. Nagle will far exceed
500, 900 and the damage to buildings
will amount to full as much, il not
more.
Of the scenes incident to the fire
we are precluded by the lateness of
the hour from giving an extended
account. The CONSERVATION, whilst
general, was most marked on Los
Angeles street, the frail deuizens
of that quarter Of the city exhibit.
ing q care and providence that
would have resulted in less loss had
they remained in their iniquitous
quarters.
At4A. NJ. the fire department
was still at work with the flames
confined to the one-story buildiugs
before enumerated.
The citizens of Los Angeles may
thank God that the Santa Ana
which prevailed on Sunday had
expended its force.

Nurdsrous Work by the Apachss-Mining
Notes.

DEAR HERALD: Consul Willard
received a dispatch from. Ures,
dated the 2Sth, stating that the
town of Gavilan, near Lampisos,
In the Northern part of Sonora, was
attacked by Apaehes, who killed
three men and two women.
Among them was Mr.. Weberling,
the manager Of the mining prop.
erty of Mr.. Heslng, editor Of the
Illinois Staatszeitnng. Mr.. Web.
erling received two wounds, Of
which he soon afterwards died.
On the 29sh q report was received
that the pack train belonging to
Mr.. Phelps, in charge Of aa Amer
lean, Mr.. Maynard, and two Mexi.
cans, was attacked by Apaches.
The Mexican who brought the
news, says that when he came to
the scene b.th the Mexicsns had
already been brought down by the
Indians, while Mr.. Maynard, who
was a short distance in the rear,
was still on his feet. The same
Mexican accompanied MIR. Thomas
Sexton and Mr.. Paul Wright,
nephews of Mr.. Phelps, to Quay
mas, and were on their return trip
to the Jesus Maria mine. The am
buscade occurred near Palma, be-
tween the Los Bronees and the La
Trinidad mines. Mr.. Alsua, the
owner of these two mines, is just
now on u visit to both, but nothing
is apprehended concerning bis
safety, as he is in the habit of
travelling under q strong escort.
A party, consisting of Mr.. Phelps,
Consul Willard, Messrs. Sexton,
Wright, Bartnipg and Schu-
macher left this morning, by q
special train, to Torres station,
thence by carriage to the Minas
Prietas, to visit the mines and
works Of this company, which has
from Its beginning turned out q
regular monthly dividend. The
party returned in the evening.

ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.
A Chapter Of Accidents and Dose Of Dsubls B
Shot.

Between 2 and 8 o'clock on Sun
day morning, Mr.. o. F. KimbIe,
who occupies portion of the
house at the corner Of Main and
First streets, was awakened by his
wife and told that some one was
trying to open the rear door. MIR.
Kimble got up, and, taking his
shotgun, loaded with double B
shot, went to the front door, which
he unfaste ned, and waited In the
expectation that the thief, who
had failed to force the other door,
would come to the front. He had
not long to wait; for, in very
short time, the front door was
opened and as the would.be robber
was about 10 enter, Mr.. Kimble
com manded him to throw up his
hands and halt. At this the fellow
turned and started off at full speed.
When he got out into the street,
Mr.. Kimble again com manded
him to halt, to which no attention
was paid, when Mr.. KimbIe fired,
without, as he supposed, hitting
the burglar, who increased his
speed after the firing of the gun,
Mr.. Kimble, who was in his night
dress, then returned to the house.,
About 6 O'Clock the same morn
ing, the family Of Mr.. Entwistle,
who live on San Pedro street, were
wakened by some one trying to
get into the room occupied by their
hired man, a Mexican namet Car
los Moreno. On going out to see
who it was, Moreno was found, an
covered with blood He was asked
what had happened, and h. replied
that he had been SHOT on MaIr
street, near the Round House. M.
Entwis tie. suppOsiDg that some
one had wantonly shot Moreno,
and that he was seriously wound
ed, hitched up his team after
breakfast, and took the wounded
man to the County Hospital, where
he was attended by County Physi-
clan HannOn. The Doctor, while
writing a prescription in an al.
Joining room, remarked to the
Hospital Steward that he
thought that the man ought to be
in jail, instead of the Hospital. 1t
is supposed that Moreno heard the
remark; for, while the steward
was making up the prescription,
he got up and stole away. His
fight was at once made known at
Police Headquarters; and yester-
day evening, officer Cuddy, think.
ing that Moreno might have gone
back to Mr.. Entwistle's, went do wn
there and found him. He brought
him up to Jail. where he was ident-
fled by Mr.. Kimble, who stated
that he believed him to be the
man who had attempted to burg
larize his house.
