A MAGIC POWER !
A secretIAgens'at Work.

We we're surprised the other day 10
learn that certain individuals in this city,
who had for many years yielded to what
was apparently an Inevitable fate, were
startled from their torpid condition of
semi-stupidity, into asserting their right
to ''life, liberty and the pursuit Of hapri-
ness" These parties had been bound by
an influence as powerful as it was inconn-
prehensible. They knew not the Cause,
yet they were victims to the result, They
were enchanted, but they could, Est dis
cerr by what means they had been man
acled. They had long sought deliver
ance In vain. Their appeals to science
and he knowledge contained in books
were equally unAvailing. At last, relief
came. It was no. through any action OF
the President, or Of Congress, FOR their
trouble was not of political character.
Neither did the Governors message re-
Ileye them, nor any actien of the new
Legislature. for it was out Of their power
and foreign to their jurisdiotien. Yet
I they were suddenly and effeetusily re-
leased from the bondage they suffered,
and placed on the equal scale of human
happiness. What was their tronbie7''
is what our readers will ask. They had
been rendered helpless By that universal
enemy-rheumatism. They hsd DOT
walked or even moved withons pain for
years, and on the strong recommends
lions of friends "who had been tbere,"
they tried Britannia. and were at once
relieved and radically cured. Brissnnis
Ia what did it. It acted like magic
power. This secret agent quietly eoursed
through their veins, removed lie cause
Of the trouble, liberated the ceptives
from their doomed condition, and now
they congratulate each other On the
accomplishment Of such triumph, and
the acquisition of the knowledge, by
which they csn at any time resist the
encroachments Of their common foe. We
could give the names Of the parties, b.
will wait future time.

LOWELL, Mass, Oct 1.-Shortly before
II O'Clock Monday night smoke was discov-
cred issuing from the store-house of the
Hamilton Manufacturing company, and on
examination a fire was discovered on the
first floor underneath the coal, there being
5000 tons on the ground floor After trying
to fight the fire for a few minutes the watch
men became suffocated, and before they
could get out two men and the yard
superintendent were overcome, and had
they not been speedily taken out would
have died in a short time. The fire was
burning almost an hour before an alarm was
sounded The contents were valued at $500,
600, mostly print goods. Several iiremen
were overcome by gas, and had to be re-
moved at great risk At 12:45 a. IN. an ex
plosion of gas took place, and turntabie
upon which John Quinlan, of hose 4, was
standing was lifted up, breaking his legs. He
was suffocated before he could be liberated.
Several other tiremen were taken out from
time TO time almost suffocated. About
o'clock holes were cut III the floors of tho sec
ond story and attempts made to flood the eel
lar with water. 1t will be some time before
the safety of the building can be assured.
The building is of brick, l95x70 feet and four
stories high
AT am. the fire was gotten under con-
troll before any serious damage was done.
BY noon all the injured men were pro-
neunced to be out of danger
The fire is accounted for by the fact that
some weeks ago a quantity of damp soft
coal was stored on the premises and over this
was subsequently laid large amount of dry

has not yet been entirely ascertained, but it

MAINE AND ARKANSAS.

Are not Maine and Arkansas equal
members of this union2 Is not the opin-
ion of the people of the one state just as
valuable as the opinion of the people of
the other? One would not think so from
the pernsal of the Blaine organs for q
couple of weeks past. They have been
profusely free in their comments upon a
republican majority of 10000 in Maine,
but singularly silent about the 1900
democratic majority in Arkansas. They
indulge in unlimited boasts about 10000
republican votes in Name, but have never
word to say as to the 100000 democra>
tic votes in Arkansas. They are exceed
ingly happy because the republican vote
in Maine was increased 5000, but their
readers would never suspect that the dem
ocratic vote in Arkansas was Il 900 larger
than ever before.
Why is this thus? We repeat, are not
Maine and Arkansas equal members of the
union? Are they not very similar in size
and population? Were not their elections
held in the same month? As matter of
fact, if their is any difference at all, is not
the opinion of the people of Arkansas the
more valuable of the two, because it was
delivered with the greater emphasis2 We
think it is, and also for another reason
Maine has always been steadfastly re-
publican state. The republicans have
never failed to carry it in a presidential
year since the formation of their party
Arkansas on the contrary, has been more
variable in its tendencies and more quick
to reflect to popular opinion. Since tht
war the state has twice been lost to thu
democrats in presidential years-in 1865
and / S7S. Why. then, do We hear 81
much about Maine and so little about AT
| kansas?

In 1880 there were polled in Illinois
622,312 votes for president. Of these
Garfield received 31S,0S7. Hancock 277-
221, Weaver 26,35s, and scattering 500
Circumstances are considerably changed
since that time. The vote polled in 1884
will probably be larger. But, supposing
the same total vote polled, allow the
Weaver and scattering vote go to Butler,
St. Johns votes will be drawn almost en-
tirely from the republican party. His
friends claim 100000 votes. Suppose he
gets fifth of this, or 10000, that would
reduce the majority to 20,s16. The Ger
man vote is variously estimated at from
10000 to 100000. Take the lowest es>
innate. 1t has been estimated again that
from rs to 80 per cent of the German vote
of the state will go to Cleveland. Not to
be too particular call it 25 per cent, oil
$1,000. How does this make the thing
look? Truly, Illinois is doubtful.

five houses had been laid in ashes. Shortly
before 3 o'clock the Catholic convent caught
fire and burned rapidly All the inmates OF

PITTsBURG, Oct IA most destructive
fire occurred at Natrona, twenty miles from
this city, on the West Pennsylvania rail
road, at an early hour Tuesday morning,
by which the Pennsylvania Salt Manu-

WHY do the republicans continue to
abuse Thomas A. Hendricks? They per-
sist in ringing the charges upon his all
legged copperheadism during the war.
Precisely the same charges were made
against him eight years ago when he was
a candidate for the same Office. The peO-
pie passed upon the accusation then and
expressed their confidence in the grand
old man by majority of quarter of a
million, or majority of over a million of
the white vote of the country. The war
is now eight years farther in the past, and
such charges can have even less effect
now than then. 1t is not likely that the
republican papers and orators expect to
make any capital out of the matter. They
are merely Observation-Disclosures victims -of
the habit of abusing anything and every>
thing labeled democratic.

cigarette smoking is one of the fashiona>
bic feminine follies in the effete east. II
this be true the day of bifurcated gar
ments for the gentler six is close at hand.
The cigarette is the harbinger of the pans
falcons. The latter is bound to follow,
not as craze or fashion, but as neces-
sity. Cigarettes are of no earthly value
unless they are smoked; to be smoked they
must be lighted, and the operation of
Lighting involves the ignition of matches.
Those who have seen man take match
and scratch it along the leg of his panta>
looms from the thigh to a point under the
knee, preparatory to lighting his cigar,
will not have failed to observe how wisely
fashion has ordained all things to comply
with the demands of even so trivial a
necessity. Not only is it of practical be-
nefit, but the grace of the posturing and
the dignity of the attitude struck with the
match, in Lighting cigar in the above de-
scribcd manner. lends an additional per-
sonal charm to the strickee. On the other
hand, glance at the apparel of the OPP
posite sex on such an occasion excites
feelings of commiseration. Comfort, ease.
grace and everything else is out of the
question. The cigarette can be lighted,
of course. but only at an expenditure of
time, labor and lack of dignity utterly in>
compatible with a labor of love. The re-
suit, therefore. is plain On so frai a
support as the ashes of the.cigarette, dear
sister hangs the fate of our pantaloons.
But that it will hang We have no doubt.
This is great year, an eventful year, a
year big with possibilities. We have
woven chaplets from its leaves and gar
lands from its flowers. Now if we can't
get some pie from its fruitage4 the fault,
dear sisters, Is with ourselves.

IN THE CHICAGO CORN PIT.
Exciting Time Among the Specula'
tOrs-COrn Up TO 81.

tOfs-SOEn up az o1s
CHICAGO, Oct. lone of the most ex-
citing scenes ever known on the board of,trade
occurred at the 10 O'Clock close on Tuesday
Ninety cent bids were made for 100000 lots
of September corn by the clique, while actual
sales were made as high as 81 on smaller lots.
Pandemonium prevailed and the din of
voices was terrible. 1t is reported that
eight cars were sold at 80 cents, deliverable
at the 2 p m session, and nine cars were
sold about the same time on the other side of
the pit at IS cents Cash corn sold as low
as SIS cents on one side Of the pit, while on the
other side the frightened shorts were bidding
as high as IS. Some heavy failures were
looked for before the day closed
The directors of the board OF trade fixed
the marginal prices of September corn at 81
cents per bushel, but 1t is thoughtit will have
no effect on the present corner
When the deal closed the figure was 81
cents, with the prices stiff. There was in
tense excitement on the floor, but SO far no
failures were reported.
Over 81, 500, 900 is said to have been realized
by the manipulators, and it was reported that
Jay Gould was at the bottom of it,
