ROBERT COLLIER says that the way
to live TO the age of so is to be tenn
perate, virtuous and keep ION the
sunny side Of the hedge" He is him
self now nearly sixty and has never
been sick for a day. He attributes to
his hardy nature, in as sweet little
home as any boy ever lived in, eating
oatmeal and milk. white bread and
potatoes, butter once a week. and
more oatmeal The result is that he
hardly knows what you mean by "a
system of digestion" so strong and
sure are the foundations of his life.
On the other hand Carlyle lived to
be 50, had the dyspepsia all his life
and never lived on "the sunny side of
the hedge" at all.

THE temperance people in England
complain that the great advocate of
total abstinence, Mr.. Murphy, charges
500 dollars month for lecturing
and demands in addition $3.50 every
thirty days for his hotel bills. This
Is only about $1,000 year, and is not
unreasonable. Why should great re-
formers be expected to sacrifice them
selves for the good of humanity. Mr..
Sullivan, who is now enlightening the
world on the subject of knocking
out people, receives even a larger
compensation than Mr.. Murphy. It
should be remembered that Mr.. Muir
ply practices as well as breaches.
If he were to indulge in gin cock
tail occasionally, be might reduce his
terms.

1t is not overwork so much as over

President Arthur has our congratu-

to Florida couple of weeks ago and has
got as far as Savannah on his return :
which point being within the precincts
of respectable civilization and an in
habitable country, his journey into the
wilderness may be considered over and
concentrations on his safe deliverance
are in order. The president has had our
sympathy in his travels, as every one
has who descends in the spring time into

unusually unlovely time. It was hot

hot little steamboats, through devious
ways, amid barren sands, in search of fish

of getting copy of the Indictment
found on Wednesday against ex-senator

as counsel. Mr.. Reed artfully dodgei a
question as to whether q motion would be
made to quash the indictment under the
statute of limitations. "The trial" he
said, Z" will be a very interesting ond and
will be very short. It ought not to take
more than a week. I think the case will
be brought into court very soon, as Mr..

TIL HE OPERA.

8. La Perichoio - at the Opera houso Last
Evening.
Offenbach's S comic opera, La Perichole, "
was produced in Fulton opera house last
evening, by the Whist IN Gordon opera com
of the fair sized audience which assembled
to hear it. Airiness and smoothness ar Q
characteristic of Offenbach's productions
and in ala Perchole - they are palpably
present. The story is that of street
singer with whom the Spanish viceroy, at
Lima, falls in love The man, however,
whom tho girl loves is a street singer also,
and they are kept asuuder by stringent
financial condition incompatible with
the laws of the land relating
to marriage. By combination of
| various ludicrous incidents and laugh
| able situations the lovers arc finally
brough. together to the happiest satisfac-
ton. AS La Rrichole Miss Gordon is
notably, pleasing and vivacious, perhaps
rather too much inclined to allow her
ebullitions of mirthfulness full range when
quieter expression is appropriate; albeit,
she is charming in tho frivolity in which
she indulges unrestrainedly and her
vocalizatiOp, not marked by any unusual
compass, is decidedly clear and expressive.
Miss Jennie Winston, as Rquillo, made an
attractive figure and acted with a natural
ness that enabled her to give very just
rendition of her role. Her singing, which
was most favorably received, combines
a good measure of bril!iancy aud
skill, with clear tones that mark
with emphatic effect the impressive
features which abound in her part. Both
ladies' received several encOres and were
called before the curtain. The character
of Don Andres, the viceroy, has satisfac
tory impersonator in W. A: Morgan, who
gave fine conception of his part in the
way of acting, and sang with an
ease and finish which left little to be
desired in the rendition of role that does
not give any exceptional opportunity for a
display of power in vocalization. The
remainder of the leading characters of the
opera gave able renditions, but a marked
weakness in the chorus did much to de-
tract from the really high excellence Of the
other performers.

Shortly after 8 O'Clock on Thursday

NJ. Shurbeer's furniture manufactory,
East Maine street. Mount Joy. Before
the fire department was ready to cast

in flames. -Four streams played upon the
building, the fircmen worked well, but
tho machinery of the fire apparatus at the
reservoir not working to perfection, the
streams were not very strong. The man.
ufactory, large two story frame building,
together with its contents, consisting of
furniture, collins, paints and varnish,
valued 1T $1,000 were entirely con
sumed. On the building there is
an insurance of $4,000 in the Mannheim
| mutual fire insurance company, and
81 1,500 in the Ephrata mutual. Mr..
Sourbeer's dwelling adjoining was also
burned with some OF the furniture. AG-
Joining the manufactory on tho west was
the residence Of II. 8. Myers, two story
building, which was burned to the ground.
1t belonged to Miss Eliza Myers, and has
an insurance OF 81, 900 in the Millersburg,
Dauphin county, fire insurance company,
| A twO-story frame house on the east side,
tho property of Mrs. Annie Myers, is
ruined by the flames and water. The loss
on this building is estimated at S40O. Her
son, Reuber Myers, occupied the building
and s0me of his furniture was burned and
$50 in money was either stolen or burned.
One of the rooms on the first floor OF
the building was occupied by Adam Root
as storeroom for western farm wagons.
The door OF the building being too narrow
to get the wagons out without taking them
apart, aud there being no time to do that,
the tiremen hacked down the door jambs
and bulk window, aud safely removed the
wagons before the flames reached them.
1t is not known how the fire originated.
When it was first discovered the flames
were bursting through he roof above the
paint shop, and as there was no fire used
i'm the building the mystery surrounding
its origin is all tho more intensified.
In close proximity to the ruined build
ings is a block of houses, including Bren-
emap, Longerecker & Co.'S store, UniOr
national bank, p. A. Pyle's drug store
and the Exchange hotel. At one time i!
looked as if all these would be burned, but
fortunately there was little wind, and il
varied it's cpu:so several times at tho more
critical periods and thus aided in saving
them.
