ment rushed down the stairs through the
flames and were badly burned. Firemen
Samuel Atkinson, John Morton and James
Gilliland were literally forced down an iron
hoisting-chain, outside the building, dis
lance OF 100 feet. About forty feet from the
ground the chain was covered with ice and
the three men slid to the ground with great
velocity. They were more or less severely
injured. A strong north wind was blow
ing, and the whole department. was called
out. The fire spread rapidly through
the mill and elevator, completely enveloping
the whole structure About o'clock the
upper walls fell outward, a part falling
through Bridge e. Davis's provision store, adj
joining on Broadway, burying several per-

Effect of the Bill,
st. Louis Globe democrat.

DU' IOUIs UIODe- UemOCfat.
No man can tell with much assurance how
the measure will affect the industries of the
country, the revenue or imports. The to-
bacco tax is reduced one-half, the
taxes on bank capital, deposits and
checks, matches, etc, are abolished, and
there is a quite general, though not
large, reduction of import duties Judge
Kelley yesterday estimated the total reduc-
ton of revenue at $4,000, 900 to $40 900, OOO
of which $50, 100000 to $4O,0O0OO0 would
come out of the internal taxes. Mr.. Carlisle
thought that $40, 600 900 to $40. OO0, 900 would
be taken from the internal revenue, and only
$40 0O0,0 900 to $25, 100000 from customs, of
which $ll 100000 would come from sugar.
Formed it has been, it will be strange if
anomalies, unfortunate provisions ambigu;-
ties and inconsistencies are not discovered in
the operation of the new law. But these
may be corrected hereafter

A JOYLEss CHILDHOOD.

Children in the United States have
generous provision made for their com.
tort and good cheer. In no part of the
world are children better cared for. Hol-
days abound and schools are graded to
every capacity. A new literature has
grown up for their benefit, consisting Of
papers and books, such as were never
seen before. Music is taught in the
family and in the public school, and al
most every boy and girl can sing. =.
An American lady. travelling in Tho
East, speaks of the great contrast be-
tween children there and here. All the
children she saw in Mohammedan coun-
tries seemed preternaturally sober, and
without love for sports. She says:
"What always impresses me more
than ANYTHING else in Egypt and Pales-
tine ia the entire absence Of cheerful
and exhilarating music, especially from
children. You never hear them sing in
the huts. / never heard song that do
serves tho name in the streets or houses
