Ho,c They Are Started In Private DsUell-
tngs-Iheater Fires.
Hartford, Conn.,, Courant.]
Fire, unfortunately, is just now a rather
timely and local topic, and it is OF interest to
study its causes and courses. Fires in private
dwelling houses have been made the subject Of
special inquiry by Londoa journal which
has bad access to the data preserved by num-
Der of leading insnaance companies. The re-
suits are worth considering. Twelve special
causes are assigned, which, however, do not,
of course, cover all the fires, and consequent
ly the total of percentage footings falls short
of 100. The dwelling house fires, 80 far as
the calculation goes, were from these causes
in the following ratio:
Per cent.
1. Curtains or window blinds in con-
tact with gas OF othe: light. 20. 4
2. Clothes or articles drying or airing
at fire. ...................... 10. u
8. Defective hearths, f1ues, etc., or, say,
inherent structural defects. 49,. .16
4. Incautious use of lighted candles,
sparks from and upsetting. etc. &c
5. Gas explosions anu escape of gas. 10
6. Burning embers of sparks from fire
to hearth rugs, etc. ............. &c
Z. Children playing with matches or
l90tS. 0.S
s. Lighted matches thrown down. "a
.. Lamps upset, leaky, or exploded. 2.e
10. Lightning. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. Ii
IL. Otner miscellaneous causes, such as
carrying live Goals, plumbers
fires, fumigating, etc. ........... 6.a
IL. Incendiarism or suspected incendl-
arlSn. v.
From this it will be seen that the burning
of curtains is the most common of all causes
of household fires. and is the reason of more
than fifth of that occur. Gas causes nearly
twice as many fires as clamps, but candles
cause more than double what gas causes, and
candles and lamps together cause nearly three
times as many as gas. These are English fig
ures. Probably in this country lamps would
take the place that candles take there in the
statistics.
1t is singular that defective Aues and others
what are called structural defects" cause nc
more fires than the drying Of clothes, which
would seem to be surely preventible thing
1t is to be noticed that not one fire in hun
dred among dwelling house fires, actually
about eighty -eight in 10000, cause loss of life

THE favor with which the positive poll
cy of Blaine in treating with England and
Chill is received goes to prove that an
earnest aggressive course is always more
popular than vacillating and concilia-
tory one. The United States have, as a
nation, too much in the past deprecated
any attitude, that did not have peace for
it's object. In dealing with Spain there
was none of that sbject caution that may
properly be denominated fear. From
the fact that when dealing with power
known to be weak and, comparatively
speaking, helpless, we acted with I'M
necessary display of eagerness for row,
and when treating with nations whose
strength precluded the idea of dictatorial
procedure, a propitiatory policy was
adopted, the conviction was settling up
on us that as a nation we were a coward.
Bismarck owes his popularity largely to
his aggressive nature. Germany is al
ways lofty, pever suppliant while Bis
marck is at the helm.
Blaine has made the blood Of the ma
ton course through its arteries with q
little greater rapidity and made the pulse
beat firmer. OF course the matter was
largely buncombe but still it was the
United States talking to other nations as
if we had opinions and had no fears as to
| expressing them.
THE question of taxing church proper
ty comes up annually in the state legisla-
ture and there is no other question, ex-
cept it be temperance, upon which the
action of members is so closely watched
by constituents. Petitions, for and
against, are circulated and the unfortu-
nate member is expected by each oppos-
ing portion to aid in preventing a great
wrong" A Mr.. Bate in the discussion
arising upon the consideration of the bill
iu the assembly lately, took occasion to
say that opposition to church taxation
came almost exclusively from Catholics,
because they had most property which
thus avoided taxation. He stated that
but very little remonstrance comes from
professionals and that some of the church
| es of that denomination even petition for
the repeal of the exemption law As a
| matter of fact the Catholic church is by
| no means the wealthiest in the state and
would not suffer as much as others by
taxation. 1t is perhaps true that it is
most opposed to taxation but on what
ground it is difficult TO say. Its activity
in this matter gives opportunity for such
denunciation as that of Mr. Bate.

A CHICAGO TINES correspondent des-

was a consul and while in that position
became defaulter through some mis-

government was paying him. His faith

clergyman in the meantime endeavorinp
to raise the money. While at Chicago

THERE is something 90 whimsieally alb
surd in the arguments Of protectaonists
that they would be amusing if they were
not provoking for their stupidity.
Whenever they are met with square
fact they fall back on possibilities and
reason from these as if they were certain
ties. Lately member of the Golden
Club stated that the loss to western farm
ers because of protection is greater than
the amount of custom receipts. Protec
tionists held up their hands in amaze
ment at statement 80 much in defiance
of truth. But there came an illustration,
clear as are those generally given by free
traders. If England levies tax Of five
shillings per quarter on imported wheat,
the purchaser of the imported wheat
would have to pay five shillings extra per
quarter, and also the purchaser of native
wheat, which is two thirds of all the
whea. required. How could an illustra-

Utter Ocean, the increase in price would
induce other people to 60 into agricul-
ture and the one third imported would
be raised by English people, and there
would be no increase in price. What in
duced the extension of agricultural pur-
suits, so that the necessity for importa
ton no longer existed? The increase in
price manifestly, was the increased price
limited to the wheat imported, or did the
native producer take advantage of the
rise? 1t would seem as if the free trader
had made clear case. But, says the
protectionist, the rise in the value of
agricultural products has attracted others
to the pursuit. Does that benefit the
consumer if prices are kept up9 And if
prices fall, do not those persons who
were induced to join the agricultural
classes because of the arti 6cially high
prices suffer- Were they not decievedl
They quit business with which they
might have been familiar for one that
promised more because of protection and
were led to their ruin.
