RUNNING THROUGH AN OPEN BRIDGE.
Two Persons Killed and Others Wounded
Through an Engineers Carelossnass.

Two Persons Killed and Others Wounded
Through an Engineers Carelossnass.
The International bridge which con-
meets Black Rock and Fort Eric was the
scene of frightful accident at half.pas
five O'Clock, Friday afternoon. There are
two draws in the bridge to allow boats to
pass, and at the time stated dummy en-
gine, carrying six persons, plunged
into the Niagara river, ono of the
draws having been opened to allow
tbs steam yacht Fancon to go
through. It was not dark and the en-
gincer should have noticed tho opening in
good season. The locomotive was within
a few yards Of the draw before any at
tempt was made to check it's speed. W,a.
Bowen, eng sineer, was instantly killed.
Edward Hershey, a Canadian farmer, had
his skull crushed and died within an hour.
James Haggett, the conductor, Mrs.
Parmlee, resident Of Victoria, John Con-
nell and Miss Connell, of Albany, were
rescued and are expected to recover, al.
though each of them is seriously cnt and
bruised Tho bridge is thirty feet above
the river, and the water is fourteen feet
deep at the place where the accident oc-
CURED. The current is very strong and
the escape of the rescued people is mirac.
ulOus, as all were carried to the bottom
with the dummy.
Malcolm Coleleugh, the bridge superin-
tendent, had fortunate escape. He was
standing on the steps of the dummy and
fancied that the draw was open-although
no warning had been given. He jumped
off just a second before the plunge was
made. Another fortunate circumstance
was the proximity of the yacht, parties on
board rendering immediate assistance.
The current brought the bodies of all but
the engineer almost directly to tho yacht.
Whatever blame there is in the matter
restf with the 6ead engineer.

WE trust that the Democrats of Ian.
caster city and county are attending to
the important matter of paying taxes.
Right now is the time to perform this
duty. No person is entitled to vote at
the approaching election who has not
paid a state or county tax within the
past two years. The last day to pay
them is next Saturday, the 7th of Octo-
ber. Let no one who has the interest
of Pattison and good government at
heart overlook this important matter.

Tho Baseball Controversy.

1t is stated that the Chicago baseball
club will refuse to recognize the validity
of the agreement with the Providence
club to play nine games after the close of
the season to decide the championship, on
the ground that the agreement was en-.
tered into on the understanding that the
Worcester proposed to drop out without
completing its schedule. Tho Worcester
having concluded, however, to play its
series out. the championship has been de-
cided in the regular way in favor of the

RITUALISM IN CHICAGO.


Brilliant Raiment and Unusual Decorations
At Corne- stone Layins-Ths
Bishops Dissent.
A special dispatch from Chicago says !:
A storm is gathering over the heads of the
Episcopalians of this city. Bishop Nc
Laren was invited by the Rev Mr.. Richie,
the rector of the Church of Ascension, to
be present Friday afternoon at the laying
of the corner stone of the new edifice and
signified his intention to be present.
Subsequently, when the full programme
was announced, Bishop McLaren declined
to oHiciate at what he termed ian Office
called high mass which is not contained in
the prayer book" "Father" Richie is
the apostle of ritua!ism in its most ultra
stage, and the bishops refusal to attend
the dedication was intended and accepted
az an expression of his emphatic dissent
from the popery practices prevalent at the
Church of the Ascension.
The ceremonies attending the laying of
the foundation stone of the church were
begun Friday morning at 6 O'Clock by
celebrating mass. There were five masses
given, lasting half an hour each, the last
one ending at Q o'clock. "Father' Richie
acted as celebrant and Rev. Mr.. Benedict
as deacon of tho mass. This being St,
MichaePs day tho holy sacrament was
administered. With the exception of the
altar, which is of handsome marble and
like those used in Roman Catholic churches
is adorned by brass crucifix and lighted
candles, the vestments worn by the priests
aud the bowling before the cross, the
regular Episcopalian service was observed.
The celebration Of solemn high mass
began at II o'clock and lasted nearly an
hour. The church was completely packed
and numbers were unable to procure
seats. Many of those present were at
tracted out of curiosity, and it was the
first time that majority of the people
had ever witnessed the celebration of
high mass in an Episcopalian church. The
candle bearers, incense bearers. sub
ing clergymen, in the order named. Every
brilliant col0rs, the choir having theirs of
blood-red and white, with red velvet
bands around the waists. The vestments
of the celebrants were an alb and chasu-
ble of beautiful design and colors. That
of the deacon was an alb dalmatic.
The sub.deacon, like the visiting ministers
was clad in a plain surplice. After the
regular ceremonies of hig gh mass had been
performed and the Gloria had been sung
the priest and the altar were incsnsed,
and then, as is always the case at high
mass, the priest took the sacrament and
the choir loft the church while singing
Thus the mass closed.
Immediately after the service the corner
stone was formally laid by Rev. barrett,
of Racine. Addresses were made by
d" Father" Ritchie and DR.. Jewell.
" Father" Ritchie spoke of the bishops
absence, aud said that few years ago he
was in the darkness of Calvinism. This
ended the exercises. Father Ritchie
is carrying matters with nigh hand, and
it is only question of short time when
his intensely ritualistic proclivities will
create trouble in tho diocese of Bishop
McLaren.

Some one in New Holland writes for the
Times an overdrawn account of the habits
and manners of the Mennonite people in
that section of Lancaster county. He
draws somewhat freely or his imagination
for picturesque effects, and the article is
evidently from the same pen that recently
contributed to the Times a ridiculous and
inaccurate sketch of the mode of life that
prevails among the rustic population of
the county.

WHEN DIsoRDERLY negro stands upon
a doorstep and defies two or three policemen
to arrest him, 1t is about time that the
people who hankered for "change" at
the last city election demanded another
change lin the composition of he police
force, Immediately. A good many persons
fancied that the old police force was in
many respects not credit to the
the city, but when they draw
q comparison with the present force a
marked contrast is the result. Most, if not
If not all Of the old force, possessed the
merit of pluck and courage, and no des
perado could stand before them and de
family refuse to be arrested. The lack Of
back bone in the bulk of the present force
is daily becoming more painfully appar
ent, and the sooner Mayor Wales
gets rid of some of the grown up children
he has rugged out in blue clothes and brass
buttons, and puts men in their places, the
better 1t will be, not only for his ofIiea
dignity but for the peace and good order O
the city. The police force is intended fol
hard, rugged service, and not for a con
tinual dress parade.

The Ratification Meeting.

Notwithstanding the great flourish of
trumpets, the liberal advertising, and the
gratuitous use of names for the honorary
positions of presidents, many of which
were not even personated upon the stage, |
the Republican ratification meeting last
evening was simply Stalwart gathering, TO
confirm the nominations made in obedience
to the bargain effected by the Stalwart
leaders of the State. Mr.. Higgins
sulked in mis- tent and refused to give public
approval, even by his presence, of the
bargain which ruthlessly killed his Con-
gressional aspirations, while the only repre-
sentative of the County Rights faction was
the little contingent from the morning
organ, which long ago sacrificed every
principle it had previously eontended
for and has since contentedly logged
along in its humble position of a
little bob to the tail of the big Harring-
ton kite. The Stalwarts had the meeting
all to themselves, and Fisher, Harrington,
Bird, Watson and Lofiand were the orators
of the occasion, and stood forth proudly aud
prominently as the leaders of the party thai
asks the people of Delaware to entrust til,
political guidance of the State to its hands
This meeting showed how completely tn
control and management of the Republica
party of Delaware is committee to Stal
wart hands. Two years ago Dick Harring
ton was grudgingly permitted to make bu
one little speech in Wilmington, while evel
the obtuse moral sense of the party a
that time would have recoiled a
the idea of allowing Judge Flshe
and Ben Watson to address a Republca
audience here. Now Harrington, Fisht
and Watson, are the favored spokesmen
the party, and boldly take the lead in adv
eating the claims of the State ticket selecte
at their dictation and arrogantly forced upc
the Republicans of Delaware as their nom
nees.
When these men boldly came forward an
take command of the Republican party
person it is time for honest men in a
parties to combine for the purpose of az
ministering to them the crushing defei
which their arrogant assumption SO just
merits

WHEN Mr.. "DIcK" HARRINGTON said
last night that the shackles Of slavery were
struck from four millions of people without
the aid of the Democratic party he simply
ornamented his greater crime Of safe
burglary with the smaller one Of conscious
and deliberate falsehood, The war could
not have been success without the Demo-
cratic party and many Of the very men who
now give life and strength to the Demo
cratic party braved the hardships OF the
field and camp while some of the Republ-
cans Of to-day were enjoying the seclusion
and safety of their homes and thrived at an
enormous rate of profit at the expense OF
the Government! That explains to some
extent why as a rule the large manufac-
turing establishments of the North are TO
day in the hands OF Republicans while
Democrats are generally of moderate means,
Not a single speaker at the meeting last
night could boast of personal part In the
strife for the existence of the Union, and II

of rank corruption and conspiracy TO pratt
