The Catholic Orphan asylum at Brook
1yn N. Y. burned Thursday afternoon,
and great many Of the children that
were being cared for in the name of
sweet charity fell victims to the dsvour-
ing flames and were sacrificed to gross
negligence, in not providing necessary
hose to make available the water works
of the city. In the yard Of the asylum
was hydrant with four butts for at
taching hose but not foot of hose had
been provided to use in such an emergen-
cy. The gates leading into the yard
were all locked and had to be burst in
with rams before those outside could get
in to fight the fire. The loss is estima-
ted at $250,OO0.

THE house committee on rivers and
harbors have allowed $27.7OO for the

amount asked for by the engineers. The
other amounts allowed by the commit

Quite a sensation was created in the
northern part of Trimbelle on the 10Th
inst. by the report that large silver
gray fox had been driven into its den
by a boy of Edmond Daley, of Oak
Grove. A company consisting of John
Barnes, Matte Barnes, Edmond Daley,
Darwin Otis, Charley Beardsley and
Mier Atkinson, after gathering up all
the dogs they could find and arming
themselves with shOtguns, spades and
axes started in the direction of the
supposed fox den. After walking
about four miles they arrived at the
spot where the supposed fox was
crouching in its den. After digging
a trench several feet deep they all
stood around it to prevent the animals
escape, and after standing there three
hours in the hot sun the dog came
forth with the supposed fox. But
disappointment was marked on every
feature, for instead of it's being fox
it was poor little polecat. Charley
says he wouldn't care so much but his
girl says she won't have anything
more to do with him, for she always
did detest perfumery.

One thing about prohibitionists which
even their opponents commend is their
stick-to-ativeness. If whipped, they
seem never to know it, and are as ire
pressible at each election as though vic
torious. The secret is, they do fighting
for principle, and one is majority in
the cause of right. "Truth is mighty and
will prevail.
The Republican party has it in their
power to render third party unneces-
sary. They have done SO in this district
in part by the nomination of such men
as w. I. Price, J. B. Thayer and few
others on the county tick ct. When they
carry out that principle to a complete
ticket there will be nothing left for pro
hibitionists to do. In the meantime
voters can easily with a pencil make the
necessary correction of the ticket at the
polls. They are likely to do SO quite
freely this year in local matters.
There were 40 votes cast in this coun
ty for Kanouse, prohibition candidate fol
governor in 1881. We can see no gooc
reasons for voting for Kanouse that vii
not apply to s ID. Hastings. Prohibition
sentiment is advancing and the only way
to make deserving principle successful
is to stick steadily to the text, and VOTE
your convictions every time.
The Chicago Lever puts the politica
situation in this way:
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES that corruption il
public morals is not so bad as immortality II
private life.
DEMocRATIc.-Resolved that immortality il
private life is not so bad as corruption in tbs
public service.
If half charged against either candidate
is true, neither is worthy of an homes
vote, and the man who can vote for eth
er without blush or protest, in view o
the admissions of their friends, must hay'
. cheek of brass, or be callow to all mora
impressions.
