WATCH !


Who, of all the men of the world,
most needs this exhortation? The
Christian. Why?
First. Because he Is a soldier, sur
rounded by enemies, who are waiting
to destroy MS soul. They are ready to
take advantage of his carelessness or
neglect of duty; they are vigilant
they are numerous; they are subtle.
Therefore he should watch.
Second. Because he is pilgrim,
travelling through hostile laml. There
may be snares in his way stones,
over which he may stumble; pits, into
which he may fall +; enticers, who would
strive to make him linger on his way,
and lure him from his heavenly home.
Therefore he must watch,
Third. Because he is a steward. He
has precious treasures to take care OF
his own soul, his talents, his time, his
Masters honor. He must take care he
does not lose the first, misuse the sec
ona, waste the third, and endanger the
fourth. Therefore ne must watch.
Four h. Because he is servant.
His Lord is now absent; His retnrn is
now uncertain ; it may be years hence,
but it may be tonight. When he
comes back, He wiz expect all to be
in readiness for His reception, each one
at his post, each one looking out Tor
Him. Therefore the Christian must
watch.

DO Befter.

A speoial dispatch from Bridgeport,
| Conn, to the New Haven Morning
News says the expose Of Lees career has
| cfeated the greatest excitement In the
first named town. At the temperance
tent in Bridgeport on Tuesday night week,
Apostle Lee made public confession OF
his past errstic career, rising, as he
claimed, Gin vindcaticn.''
In telling the story OF his life he admits
deserving his wife aud two little children
and going away with another woman. At
Chicago he stated he kept a horse sboeing
shop, and at Erie a low gin mill. From
Brie he went to Providence, where the
confessor states nobody would have any
thing to do with him, and as last resort
opened gin mill. 81 cOuld not place q
glass of beer, gin or liquor before a man
without nearly breaking my heart" says
the rum and temperance advocate.
Lee, in conclusion stated he was nor.
living with his first wife and children,
and intended TO hereafter load an upright
life.
The "vindication" did not contain any
account of his raseslly career in this city,
nor ia any mention made Of his seduction
OF Miss Ida F0utz, therefore it il incom-
plete.
Lee claims to have accepted the "Chris-
tian faith" three years ago, but is afraid
he could not refrain from fighting II he
should see the man who wrote the article
giving his past career in Tuesday's Nom
ing Neps.
The temperance people or those asso-
ciated with Lee in Bridgeport, have faith
in the sincerity of his intention to lead a
better life and are rallying to his side.
The publication has done much to in
crease the attendance, and his aggrega-
tion of temperance apostles and Magdalen
minstrels is drawing full tents.

THE III RBLCh FIRE.
SERIOUS loss OF Pr0perfy-TwO Men
Injured.

New YoRK, July l9.-At about 1915
o'clock this morning a spark from All en-
gire fell into pile OF ju.e which had
Just landed on IIarbeck's dock from the
ship Lawrence Il. Delsp, from Calcutta.
The dock was filled with hemp juts aud
coffee. The ilamea spread with Incredible
rspidity and in few minutes the entire
dock was ablaze.
The Delap was the first vessel to catch
fire aud all her rigging was burned before
she could be towed out. Next to her on
, the sOnth side Of the dock was the ship
perseverance, also from Calcutta, and on
t.e north sidelay the ship Col. Adams from
lcntta to Bath. To these vessels the
'esseis the flames were communicated
. AVID the crews jumped overheard for
safety.
In the meantime n general alarm had
been sent ont, and five steamers and iour
hook and ladder trucks were soon on thu
spot.
When the fremen reached the dock
the supports OF the root gave way and the
roof fell in with terrific crash, burying
over dozen fremen and deck hands he.
| meath the ruins.
| A rescuing party was quickly formed
and the men were dragged ont from the
| blazing raiters. None were killed out
right, but all were more or less burned
| ard bruised.
Firemen Mcnamara, Mcdonald and
McDOugall of hook and ladder truck. No.
| 3, were injured severely about the body.
A commotion Just then occurred i'll the
crowd and the chief of battalion CAV.
orders to clear the dock, rs the shiI
Lawrence Delap, which was now on fire
above and below, contained 4 800 kegs o
| saltpstre.
A rush was made by the crowd to the
| further end of the dock. While all thit
WAS going on a hoisting derrick from
| which the supports had bsen burned lel
over on the wharf with a crash, knock
ing men overheard and narrowly missing
fire engine stationed on the wharf.
| Custom lloose Inspector Harrsdon, il
attempting to escape from the ship Col
| Adams, was severely burned about tn,
face and hands but reached the dool
safeld. Inspector Lsmper also narrowly
escaped burning to death.
The ships Perseverance and Col
Adams had by this time bson towed ta
ont in the stream, and tug poured
" ater into their holds.
The efforts of the firemen were mainly
directed to extinsuishing tue flames oil
board the Lawrence L. Dslap, on which
it was feared an explosion would TAX,
place.
At 1.S0 she was still blazing fiercely
but the salt petre in her hold had no
exploded. "... ."
District Officer A. B. Douglass and hi
assistant, MIR. Cole, could not state tn
extent of the losses, but said they woul,
undoubtedly be very heavy.
IL is reported that the captain of tn
Delap with his wife aud three childrel
were drowned.
Two deck hands were also reporte,
drowned and one sailor killed outrigh
by falling timbers.
The loss ia estimated at 5000, 900.

A strike of this character we consider
not so much the fault of the operators q,
the company that employ them. 1t is no
a secret that the hours are too long AMI
the wages too meagre for men of thii
class. Eight or 10 years of constan
clicking on the key at 10 hours day will
more or less parslyze the arm OF the mar
or woman that does it. We are not il
favor of strikes, but we are heartily il
favor OF paying skilled labor for the I'm
portant work it performs, and their work
ing hours should be such that they will
not be incapaoitated from work in few
short years.-DeiaDare Ledger.
