the contract made by the st. Hedwig School

Veronica to be teachers in st. Hedwig at the
salary of $40 per month. The law declares

public schools, and Judge Mason cautioned
the ladies that any infringement upon this law
would cad to IA suspension aud probably for
feiture of the office and its emoluments.

A County to be Proud Of.

(From a recent speech in Worcester by Senator G.
F. Hoar)
You will become familiar, hope, with that
marvellous record of national progress, the
census of 1880. Certainly the people of Massa-
chusetts and of Worcester. will find there little
reason to regret the policies by which they
have been governed; or, rather, by which they
have governed themselves, for the quarter of
cetury which has gone by. Look at your
two great interests, agriculture and manufac-
ture. There are 2461 counties in the United
States. OF these, Worcester county in the
the amount of manufacturing products is the
lltn IN rank. She is surpassed by ten others
only, OF which three are Massachusetts, coun-
ties, Essex ranking the 10th, Suffolk the fifth
ana Middlesex the sixth. The other seven are
the counties which contain the vast popula-
tions OF New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, st.
Louis, Baltimore, Cincinnati and Pittsburg.
But in the proportion borne by wages paid to
labor to the product of manufacture, Worces-
ter county is by far the first. She largely leads
all the great manufacturing communities of
the United States, except our neighbor, Middle
sex county. In the value of its farms, among
the the 246l counties OF the Union, Worcester is
18th in rank. 1t is, however, 10th in the val
ne OF its agricultural products. But in the pro-
portion OF the value of her agricultural pro-
duct to the value of her farms Worcester coun-
ty ranks third, Oneida and st. Lawrence coun-
ties in New York alone exceeding it. Better
even than the statistics of wealth are the sta
tistics OF education. The census discloses that
of the people of Massachusetts above 10 years
old, the number of those born in this county
who cannot write is but seven-tenths of / per
cent In this respect Massachusetts largely
leads the column of states. She has but seven
tenths of per cent of her native American
population unable to write: Connecticut has
per cent; Maine, 1.9 per cent; Vermont, per
cent; Rhode Island, 30 per cent; Kentucky,
228 per cent; and Georgia, 23.2 per cent.
When you remember that this percentage in
cludes all illterates who are natives of other
states, we may fairly assume that among the
natives of Massachusetts of sound mind litter
acy is practically unknown.

The property of the Company consists of $500
head OF cattle, houses, six ranches controlling
twenty miles of river 'front.' which controls 2oo,-
ooo acres of land houses corrals and other build
ings necessary to conduct the business located in
Ionto Basin, cen part of Arizona Territory.
1t has long been known that the raising OF Cattle
in Texas, NewMexico, Arizona and other States and
Territories of the great is and for many years
has been immensely profitable and the fame of the
Cattle Kings is world wide. Starting with small
means, these men within q comparatively short
time attained positions in the World of business
and finance rivalling the famous Bonanza Kings of
the Pacific Coast Their success shows the results
OF intelligent and persevering efforts and the short
Time which has been necessary for the achievement
OF that success proves conclusyey that investment
made in the cattle business rarely fails of returning
ratio of profit fairly astonishing to those not IA
miliar with the resources of the great west. And
the almost absolute certainty with which the profit
can be relied upon, will at once commend this class
OF investment to anyone who will take the trouble
to study the history of Stock in the western portions
of the United States, and more particularly Texas
New Mexico and Arizona. Capital invested in cattle
will return larger per centage of interest than is
returned by any other legitimate investment, and at
the same time be free from the risks and uncer-
families usually attending highly remunerative or
speculative business.
No safer investment could be offered.
The management of the Company's affairs is in
the hands of parties whose long experien renders
them familiar with all details and are eminently fit
ted to conduct the enterprise with success.

PANIC IN A SCHOOL.
A Little Girl Fatally burned and over
200 Pupils BADLY Scared

A Little Girl Fatally burned and over
200 Pupils Badly Scared.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 22-At the Rev. Father
Doyle's pafochial school, on Clark street,
which is attended by 250 pupils, panic occur
red during the forenoon session today. A six
year old girl named Maggie McKal went to the
stove to dry. her slate. There was hot
fire, and the draught drew her dress skirt into
the flames. She screamed and ran to the oppo-
site side of the room. The movement famed
the fire in her clothing, and before her teacher
could reach her, she was enveloped in flames.
The pupils took fright at her cries, and stam-
pede was begun toward the DOORS Some of
them were shouting "frel' and others were
screaming with fright The uproar reached
the other school-room on the floor above, and
200 pupils of higher grade came tearing
down the steep stairway, crowded with little
children. Down the entire mass rushed, and
out upon the street. A single misstep would
have thrown some child down, a blockade
would have occurred, and many would certain
ly have been trampled to death. As it was,
there were number severely bruised and 9TH
ers had their clothes torn in pushing their way
through the jam.
In the meantime, the little girl whose CLOTH
ing was on fire had run out of the school-room
and down TO the end of the hall, where she
was caught by one of the Catholic Sisters who
threw large door-mat around her and tore
the burning clothing which the mat would not
cover from her blistered form. The child is
still alive, but is probably fatally burned.
Many OF the children who stampeded into the
street did not stop running or crying until they
reached their homes. An afternoon session of
the school was field, but the attendance was
small.
