FIRE AT ErHRATA.
James BrysOn's Bending Works and VIM. Z
Heillg's dwelling House and Chair
Factory DESTROYED

James nryson's Bending Works and VIM. u
Heillg's dwelling House and Chair
Factory Destroyed.
Friday night about II O'Clock James
Bryson's bending works and saw mill, at
Ephrata, were discovered to be on fire,
and in short time were totally destroyed,
together with their contents, consisting OF
machinery, Bonded shafts, felloes, hickory
toughs, &C., sc. Tho building was frame
structure aud burned furiously, rendering
futile all efforts to save it. Mr.. BrysOn's
loss is not less than $4,000, and he has
an insurance of sc, 600 in three or four
companies.
The flames from the burning bending
works set on fire the dwelling house and
chair factory of VIM. G. Heilig, and they,
too, were destroyed, though most of Mr..
Heilig's furniture was saved. The extent
Of his loss is said to be about 81 500, on
which he has an insurance of $780,.
The dwelling house of Mr.. Croft, stu
ated within ten feet Of Mr.. Heilig's, was
several times on fire and considerably
damaged, but through the heroic efforts of
the citizens was saved.
During the progress of the fire, son of
MIR. Heilig, aged 22 years. while fighting
tho flames, fell from the roof of the burn
ing building and was very seriously hurt.
The burned buildings were situated on
the north side of the main street about a
square from the railroad and two and a
half squares from the passenger depot.
The origin of the fire is not positively
known, but it is supposed to have origina
ted from spark from the furnace in Mr..
Bryson's bending works.
Ephrata is very poorly supplied with
fire apparatus, having nothing but ono old
fashioned hand engine, and it SO badly out
of order that it could not be worked whom
it was needed.

If the Democratic mem berS of tht
House who with great unanimity refuse
to consent to an adjournment of the
Legislature have any reason to believe
that all the proper parliamentary pro
cesses to get an honest, just and true
apportionment are not yet exhausted
if they have any we'll founded hopes, -
and the speeches of Lowery and Sterrett
justify such hopes, that the Republicans
may be yet brought to sense Of decency
and fairness, then they are wise in
standing out firmly against the desperate
efforts of the Republican bosses to defeat
the purpose of the extra session. When
these people offered as their " ultima
tum" a dishonest and unjust appOrtion
ment, there was nothing for the Demo
Gratis to do but to reject it, even at the
risk of getting no apportionment at ALL
And if this is their ultimatum there
is nothing for the Legislature to
do but to adjourn. But there
are visible signs of weakening on
the other side. Some of the senators
dare not take the responsibility Of fol
lowing Cooper's lead to obstruct every
thing like a fair division of the state
Some of the Republican members of the
House, notably Lowery and Sterrett,
honest and conservative men, will not
stand by their party in its wrong posi- :
tion. It is for the Democratic members
of the House to interpret these signs and
to give them chance for fruition.

ark, has suecoodod = suppgainG . pam
phlst pginted and eopyrightDd By ono Of
the moGt briIliant and aoo.fhl pgiaGts Of
his diocese. TAe panphlst mkgeB that
tho Catholic church in this country shAll
be Ameeieani1ed that the bish0p Ghau be
elected By the priests and not By tho pope
that Italian influence should give way to
American ideas; that schools shall be
made free, on the principle Of our public
schools, and that for all practical purposes
the church in the United States shall be
made independent of Rome. This re-
markable brochure comes from the pom of
the Rev. Patrick Corrigan, pastor OF tho
largest Catholic congregation in the United
States, the Church Of Our Lady of GrAce,
in Hoboken. He is q brother of Arch bishop
Corrigan, the coadjutor of Cardinal Mo
Closkey, and has another brother at the
head of Catholic educational institution.
The pamphlet, after being put in print and
prepared for circulation, was Withdrawn
at the order of Bishop Wigger, but not
before reply had baen prepared for it by
several seminarians of Jersey City. Father
Corrigan bows to the will Of his superior,
but does not hesitate to express his views
frankly in private. He is set against
Italian influence, the subiection OF
the priesthood to foreign domination,
the paid schools of the religious
fraternities, and bishops sent from
Rome. His reasons for wishing to have
the church Independent are that in his
travels he has seen nothing but misery and
practical infidelity following in the train
of state church. In Spain. in Italy, and
elsewhere he has found the people most
ignorant and degraded where the church
had been the ally of the state and had
lorded it with high hand. In word,
Father Corrigan is an intense republican,
a firm believer in American institutions
and SO radical that he insists that his
church will never get hold upon the pop.
ular heart until the people have direct
power in all the church management and
the priests are allowed to choose their OWL
mitred standard bearers. He even goes 30
far as to say that it is wicked to compel
the children of the poor to attend church
schools, where they usually have to pay
large fees, when just as good an education
is offered them in the public schools of the
land.

REVERENCE FOR AGE.

A Talmudical Parablo-By Dr. Samuel M.
Laski.
A decrepit old man used often to como
to Obediah's house. His head was bowed
down with age. his voice scarcely audible,
and the little that could be heard was I'M
Ineligible.
But Obediah loved the old man, and
whenever he saw him at distance he ran
to meet him, invited him into his house,
offered him his softest cushioned chair,
and, when he left, accompanied him back
to his lonely hut.
Obediah's sons saw with astonishment
how their father honored the old man,
who seemed to them a dotard !; and one
day they asked the reason why he did SO.
"My sons, he answered, ''this man, who
is now scarcely able to speak, was in
former years the greatest orator and deep
est thinker of his time. Old age first
attacked his body and then his mind and
with the light of his mind the light of his
intellect also darkened."
Our sages say that when Moses had
placed the tables of stone in the ark of
testimony, God commanded him also to
preserve the broken tablets. Not alone
those which noao serve but those which did
serve holy purpose, though useless now,
are to be held sacred.
Reflect on the deep meaning of this
beautiful parable. And whenever you see a
man who has once served the world by his
wise lessons, his good examples or his be-
nevolent acts, remember the broken tab
let's of tho law, and honor him, though his
day be past.
"Thou shall rise up before the hoary
head, and honor the face of the old man,
and fear thy God: l am the Lord ?'-
Levitt. xix, 80.
