A CTTTZENs' COlTRTTTTEE

A CITIZENS COMMTTTEE.
 A number of citizens who do not as rule devote much time to public affairs have said to us within the past two weeks that they propose to make 8 personal effort towards having the expenses of our town and city governments reduced We are glad to hear this It is exactly what is wanted, Apathy in regard to pablic matters is always the thing most to be feared. There is little dan ger from extravagance or dishonesty when the better class ef citizens take live interest in politics. This. unfortunately, is not very often the case nowadays, and their indi fer ence is always sure to be taken advantage of. Just this indifference is, as everybody knows, the principal cause of all the corruption and waste that cripples the prosperity and in- jures the good name of the cities of this country.
 It is not easy to awaken very general in- terest in city and town affairs, but even a few active and determined men can do great deal towards checking extravaganza and re- forming abuses But their forts should be well directed, and they ought to be com bined- Wshave repeatedly called the atten- SNSAA O4 plished elsewhere by ''citizens' committees. 1" We have yet to learn of the first instance where thorough reform ever proceeded from the oficeholders. Such reforms have always been commenced and carried through by outsiders. A committee of seventy oiti- zens waged successful war upon the Tweed ring. 4 citizens commit tea 6aIivared PbiIadaInbia F-oro 4ba ooo4-oJ of the most powerful, best organized and most firmly seated ring that ever existed in this country. Everybody knows that Civil Service Reform was forced upon the federal oAice-holders by a pressure from without that they could not resist. We are far from intimating that New Haven is, as things go, a badly governed city, and yet unless the citi- zsns take the matter into their own hands we think they have little to hope for in the way of retrenchment.
 Suppose that one hundred influential and energetic men, acting in concert, should do their utmost to see that capable men were sent from each of the wards to the Common Council, should attend the town meetings in person and prevent unwise measures from passing, as they often do, through sheer de- fault, should go to the meetings of the school district and appear before the boards and committees of the city government for the same purpose. They could accomplish an incredible amount of good. There are some public spirited citizens who do all this now, but there are not enough of them and they do not act in concert. We advise our friends who tell us they intend to do what they cap to prevent public extravAganee, and all oth- CTS who are like minded, to try the expert ment of organization.

Providing for EmplOyes.


 Employers of labor on a large scale who are distrustful of the organizations which laborers form for themselves would do well to study their opportunities for improving the prospects of their workmen and estab fishing @ relation of cordiality and confidence with them. Trades unions are formed be cause workmen have need of some means o1 promoting their mutual benefit and protec. ting themselves not only against oppression, but against the chances of industrial service If kindly and philanthropic spirit generally prevailed among employers, especially such as have occasion for the services of intelli- gent and we'll disposed men, it would be an easy matter to establish mutual benefit asso- citations with them, which would relieve them from the anxious feeling that often impels them to join the unions. few experiments of the kind have been tried with the most gra flying success,
 We lately described the association which has been formed among the employees of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad company through the efforts of it's president, which is similar to one that has existed for some years in the mechanical depa tments of the Times office. It is in effect 8 mutual insurance association to whose fund the company itself made substantial contribution, and which is kept up by monthl payment by each mem- Der preportioned to the salary or wages he is receiving. The benefit to be received holcs d corresponding proportion to the pay ments. Out of this fund each member re- ceives stipulated sum per day during any sickness or disability while in the service of the company, and in case of death his family receives a substantial benefit. It is an abso- lutely safe form of mutual insurance against sickness injury, or death, and one in which there IS no expense for management. To this plan the Baltimore and Ohio company has added the feature of savings fund, on which per cent interest is paid to deposi- tors, and from which they may borrow for building purposes at per cent. Here. too, there is no expense for management, the employer and employees uniting in the care and investment of funds, so that the entire benefit of contributing to the insurance plan and the savings plan aocrues to those who take part in them.
 simple and practicable arrangement oi this kind, conducted in spirit of mutua interest and goodwill, will go far toward making employees feel secure and satisfied ano removing all need or desire to surrender their independence of action to unions 1T whose control they have little voice.

1 A criminal prosecution that for g year past

 many has just ended. The question involved 1 was whether peasant girl had any rights l which member of the nobility was bound to 1 respect. Freiherr von Rothenhan having | suspected a si1teen-year old girl. living in Silesian village in which he possesses an
 estate, of having stolen triAing sum from hls house, had her laid over g bench, and in his own person administered to her what he
 considered proper punishment with horse whip. The occurrence was regarded with a
 degree of feeling that went far beyond the individuals concerned in it The plebeian
 public felt that it was g patrician outrage upon their rights, and they clsmored for the punishment of the distinguished offender. A criminal prosecution was finally instituted, and now, after litigation lasting more than year, Freiherr yon Rothenhan has been found guilty and sentenced to pay g fine of $27.50. The compliments demanded that he be sentenced to eight months imprison.
 ment and to pay fine of $50. The de- fence suggested fine of $7.50. The lenient sentence has caused great dissatisfaction, but at the same time the fact that the de- feniant was punished at all is regarded as
 wholesome warning to 8 certain class of ar
 rogant nobles and landed proprietors.
 An ingenious device for opening up snow
 banks to permit the passage of trains has been patented by MT. G. A Gunther, of New
 Utrecht, New York. The locomotive is pro- Vided with long tube, one end of which terminates within the caboose, while the other projects in front of the locomotive.
 The locomotive is likewise furnished with
 snow blow, and when this is insufficient for
 clearing away the snow torpedo is inserted
 in the tube, which is, exploded by coming in
 contact with an anvil at the end of the tube.
 thereby scattering and loosening the drift for the more ready entrance of the blow. The same inventor has also obtained patent for another powerful device for clearing away snow on railroad track. The invention consists in cannon for Ioosening the snow,
 which cannon is perfectly provided with side apertures or tubular arms which. serve to loosen up the snow in front of the blow for facilitating the action of the latter. The same inventor has also obtained a patent for still another form of device for exploding tor pedoes in snowbanks. Upon car. suitably arranged for the purpose is raised tower having shaft projecting horizontally from it's top. The torpedo is run out on this shaft to it's extremity, and then dropped into the sno1bank. where it is exploded by jerking the rope which regulated the descent of the torpedo into the snowbank.i The caF is like wise provided with plow for clearing the track when the snow has been loosened by the explosion.

According to letter from the usually well-informed Roman correspondent of the Cologne Gazette, the Jesuits are on the point of resuming their old ascendency at the Vati- can. Before very long, he thinks, the Pow CTS will have to recognize that not the Pope, but tho Pope's master, the general of the Jesuits, is the real head of the church. This opinion, which he supports by referring to the course of the recent negotiations be- tween the Pope and Bismarck, he founds upon 8 curious story to the effect that the present Pope virtually pur- chased his election to the Pontifcai throne by an agreement entered into with the Js- suits before the conclave. As soon as he was Pope, the importance of the Jesuit con- gregation began to incraase. and although he sometimes resented the dictation of his tu- tors, they have succeeded in reducing him to almost complete obedience. The staff of the famous order is once more about to be domi oiled in Rome. whence their orders will be transmitted through their Pontiieal instru- ment.

The charge is made that the closing of the laboratory established by the city of Paris for the examination of food drink and medicine was due to the in huence and per- haps money of the wine merchants, who did not relish the systematic publication of their liquor secrets. It is no wonder that they were sensitive, for out of 3,361 specimens of wines submitted to analysis, only 357 were pronounced good. Of the remainder 1,O99 were passable, 1, 7O9 bad but harmless. and POP dangerous. Thus 59. r per cent. of the samples of wines sold in France proved to be bad. The beer averaged better, only dan gerous specimen appearing in ss analyses. As to cider out of 55 were dangerous.

Under the Married Women's Property Act, which lately went into effect in England. q novel case has been brought before the Court of Appeals for the Chancsry division. The point to be argued was, in brief.whether or not Rmarried woman having house set- tied upon her for her separate use can turn her husband out and obtain from the court an order forbidding him all access to it. Mir. Justice Chitty had previously granted the desired injunction, and the master of the rolls and his colleagues saw sufficient reason for denying the appeal, but they all declined to give any opinion as to the main question and intimated that it must eventually be ta- ken to the House of Lords for decision.

York tor suOien Securities.
Canon Bernard, Roman Catholic dig
nitary in Belgium, came to this country
over a year ago with $7OO,O worth OF
securities and was captured in Mexico By
a New York detective. He had the Sc
curities with him. He was sent back to
Belgium and the securities turned over to
Sheriff Rowe for safe keeping. King Leo
pold H., of Belgium, and the bishop of the
Belgian church both brought suit for the
securities. The sheriff summoned specia
jury to pass upon the disputed question
of title. Wednesday, while engaged in their
labors, in New York, they were served
with an order from Judge Donohus to
show cause why they should not be re.
strained from further action until April.
This order was obtained in behalf of Kine
Leopold. One Of his counsel said to-day
9" The king says the title of the securities
cannot be settled without the production
of certain material proof which will have
to be brought here from abroad. He asks
to be given until April to produce it. The
order is returnable on Monday" Canon
Bernard is in a Belgian prison.
