The Ventilation of Churches.

The Christian Weekly publishes a
very effective, though not strictly
grammatical or scientific, appeal to
the sexton for a better ventilation of
the churches. We quote some of the

Lillian spencer

The Boston Herald speaks as follows
of LILLIAN Spencer, who will appear as
Cora, the Creole, at Whitley's opera
house on the evening of February ID:
Miss Lillian Spencer in the difficult
part of Cora, "The Creole" last night
gave proof that she has career. She
must have had the confidence OF genius
when she chose this part for her debut
3 few weeks ago. II demands versatile
ty, vivacity and sustained tragic force.
The talent to play it we'll is rarely found
in one young enough to look the girlish
Cora as 1t is in Miss Spencer, and this is
with a voice musical, distinct and capa-
Bile of dramatic power without straining,
If there is any excess of acting it ia SO
like the natural exuberance of youth as
to appear no fault. The versatility in
this character shows that Miss Spencer
has talent for wide range in the drama,
in the light shades as in heavy tragic.
There is not anything in either line that
she may not undertake with confidence
that her application will master it. II
is pleasure to greet young American
star who has genius and fine physical
qualifications and who evidently Is moi
trusting to instinct, but is pursuing this
as an art TO be acquired by study, which
shall continually reach to something
higher.

the house in such condition that the
feet of his little girl frcze, and told him

JonN AND MAReAREr WILLIAMS.

This country burned in 1890, 140.537,
439 cords of wood for fuel This was
valued at $3O6 $50 900, and was consum-
ed by 32,375,054 persons. Not less ,han
$4,000, GOO of this fuel was used In lnan-
ufacturing geld. silver, brick, and salt,
and IN running railroad locomotives In
addition, the value of the charcoal cnn-
sumed in refining and the iron manu-
facture was $5,2T6,736. All this. and
the vast amount of pine. redwood, wal
nut, and other industrial lumber that is
cut every year, is taken in a way that
destroys the forests once for all. 1t is
our forests that should be protected"
not the reckless lumbermen who are de-
stroying them. The lumber attorneys
in the senate are playing double game.
They declare the pine woods TO be mex
haustible, in order to quiet objections to
a tax that encourages their destruction,
and also in order to keep down the price
of the pine lands their clients desire to
buy. They vote for every ether swind-
ling tax so as to get votes for theirs Tn
less something is done 10 save our for
ests they will disappear like the salmon
that were once found Ia inexhaustible

EDS. NEWS: Flax growing is sadly

deficient in that line OF business. Flax
seed is one of the most profitable pro
ducts of the farm. 1t is one of those
products which take but little work
comparatively and yields handsome
return.
The seed should be sown or drilled
about the first of April on we'll pre-
pared ground. FalIowed ground is
preferable, or fresh broke sod, which is
excellent for growing fax. Many per
sons break prairie for the crop that can
be grown upon il, and that without re-
breaking, and it is also splendid for set
ting sod. From four 10 six gallons of
seed per acre is sufficient to produce a
yield of from le to 20 bushels per acre,
which brings from ninety cents to one
dollar and quarter per bushel,
The most important time in the grow.

quest in the Newhail house disaster this
afternoon, Linehan, the engineer, Nc
KenZie the Waterman and Clupack the
store-keeper, were examined. The state
mepta of the Two former did not vary
from those made Immediately after the
fire, as to the origin and location of the
starting place. Mckenzie said he had
to attend TO the wants of the guests, be.
sides watchman duties, and discovered
smoke first ON the sixth floor, and after
wards saw smoke coming through the
cracks of the elevator shaft. He notified
the night clerk and engineer when he
got back 10 the third floor, and when
the flames burst through the elevator
door there was something like an eXplo-
sion and all lights went out. He could
not see how the Ere could start acciden-
tally, but he don't want 10 say that il
was an incendiary. lie thinks that the
fire started at the foot of the elevator
shaft; he is positive that the fire could
not have started in the bar room. The
witness thought that if ladders could
have been raised promptly more lives
could have been saved. Linehan also
located the fire in the basement and
gave inceBdiarism as the cause, in his
opinion.
