The Net of Marriage.

Some people, especially il they marry
young and on the impulse of some talk
ing fancy, without due consideration
of the very grave nature of the state
they are entering, discover afterward
that his or her mate does not come up
TO the eXpecta,.l ns which had been
formed The light and laughing love of
the marriage and the early periods of
married life are succeeded by n sense of
disappointment. Then comes domestic
indifference, perhaps rccrimination.
Both man and wife are deceived aud
undecoived. Internationally, perhaps,
but really. Both feel, as IL were,
eutangled. They have married in haste
and repent too often, not Mt leisure, but
with mutual bitterness and ill-con-
cealed uncOncern Tor one another, Each
generally thinks the other most To
blame. And do not believe | am over
stepping the limits of appropriate Ian
guago when ! say that the idea Of being
caught In net represents their secret
convictions, Here Is disastrous state
of affairs. In this country such n net
cannot be easily broken. The pair have

to be loved we mus; show kindness and
consideration, and not expect to receive
what we do not grant ourselves. "Give,'

IL may be assumed that the moderate
use OF alcohol as an ingredient in u
mixed diet has the effect of minimizing
digestive effort, and that in this way it
affords means of maintaining the
human frame in the highest possible

being put forth by each individual

Furious Flames at Pittsburg.

PfTTSBURG, Sept. 27-A disastrous con-
flagration broke out on the south side shortly
after 10 o'clock Thursday night. For aeveral
hours it ragged with great fury Many fire
companies hurried to the scene, but
gines into play, owing to the
scarcity of water The flames made
such rapid headway that the entire fire de-
partment of the city was summoned by q
general alarm. After fighting the confia
grafton for over three hours, it was put I'M
der control at l o'clock Friday morning.
The glass factories of Abel Smith & Co, and
the machine shop and pattern storage-house
of Robinson, Rea a Co. were totally de.
st"oyed. Abel Smith q Co. are large glass
manufacturers, and their factories
were among the largest in the country. They
adjoined each other, and were situated be-
tween Carson street and the Monongahela
river, a short distance from the new suspen-
sion bridge The offices and warehouse were
saved with much difficulty. They employed
about 200 men, who will be thrown out OF
employment. Robinson, Rea & Co are large
iron founders. Their establishment is con
tiguous to Abel Smith & Co.'S. The
flames communicated to their machine,
shop, which burned to the ground. The
pattern storage-house, containing S25,00C
worth of patterns, on the same premises,
was destroyed. All the property is insured
to about two-thirds the value in local and
foreign companies The loss will foot up
nearly quarter of million Ten thousand
people witnessed the conlagration for hours
II was feared that the combustible buildings
in the vicinity would be fired by flying Gill
ders, and that large portion of the south
side would DO swept away by the flames.

whence, at the age of 10, he was removed co
his fathers Office, joining his only and elder
brother in commercial employment. The
father of the young men, by name Robert
Garrett, was north of ireland man, and
their mother of Pennsylvania German stock.
In time the business OF the house greatly ex-
banded, and it became the American branch
Of Peabody & Co, of London, besides repre-
senting other scarcely less important English
firms.
Up TO the year 1856 the Baltimore 4 Ohio
railroad had been unprosperous As one of
them Mr.. Garrett attended meeting of the
stockholders in 1857, and expressed himself as
to the condition of the road with an i'm
pressive sagacity which led to the adoption
of set of resolutions Incorporating his
views and substantially compromising that
policy which has made the road so success
full. Mr. Garrett became a director of the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad in October, 1851,
and was elected to the presidency of the com
pai1y owning it in 1928. In the spring Of
1859 the stockholders were paid semi
annual dividend for the first time in the
history of the road Financial prosperity
has characterized Mr. CARROTS presi-
dency from then to the present time. His
policy was one of economy. He received a
comparatively small salary himself, and no
large salaries are paid. During the war Mr..
CARROTS Judgment in the arrangements for
the transportation of troops was found inval-
liable to the Union cause. The credit of the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad with English CAPT
talists is said to be superior to that of any
other road in the United States, AMI the de-
velopment of the great highway under Mr..
CARROTS presidency has been very remark.

is on trial for holding Office and voting with
out becoming naturalized citizen, Newell
tried to put on the prosecution the burden of
proving that he came from Ireland at all
showing that there was no record of his arri-
val at Castle Garden. Newells mother testi-
fed that he was born in Ireland, and came
to this country when nearly years old; did
not come with her, but with his grandmother
eight months later. She has since remarked
and her present husband has been naturalized
since marriage. The defence claims that his
(her husband's naturalization naturalizes her
and all her children, even those born pre-
vious to the marriage. The case was sub
mitted, briefs to be handed in in ten days
No evidence was given to show that NEWELL s
father was naturalizsd.
