d. M. Inman. ohairman of the demo-
cratic committee OF Dakota, has called
. meeting OF that committee at Mitchell
on the 14th inst. It is announced that
the coming session will be devoted to
consultation relative to the action of the
democratic psrty in connection with the
constitutional election. The general
impression is that the party will either
oppose the constitution or will remain
passive spectators Of the election pro-
ceedings. Through what process OF
reasoning the democratic party can
reach the conclusion that q constitution.

Dakota's democratic party is squarely
divided on the governorship issue. One
portion clings tenaclously to Pierce and
the other strongly urges his removal and
the appointment of Ziebach. The di-
viding line between these factions Is the
18th parallel, though the northerners
have secured few southern mug
wumps. mostly old associates OF Ordway
The northern faction is backed by the
Northern Pacific combination and this
gives Governor Pierce q strong grip on
his place. The division of the party in
the territory upon this subject also
strengthens the Pierce side of this con.
test. These circumstances may be over
come by Mr.. Zlebsch's magnificent en-
dorsements. No man ever went before
the appointing power with stronger
backing from the people. They charge
MIR. Ziebach at Washington with being
9 divisionlst. Upon this subject
he 10 silent, though he cannot
have q very strong admiration
for his northern political
associates who are endeavoring to howl
him down because he lives in the south.
The contest at Washington over the
governorshiP is focusing and must
soon reach final result one way or the
nther

Governor Pierce has placed on file as
one of his excuses for vetoing the capi.
tai removal bill, letter from Judge @.
s. Palmer urging him to veto the bill,
and representing that large proportion
of the people of his district were op-
posed to the removal of the capital from
Bismarck, and were satisfied with the
action of the capital commission. OF
course it can be easily demonstrated
that this was not true statement. The
Judge seems to have become demoralized
by his association with Ordwsy in that
million dollar townsite speculation
which didn't pan out.

clse history Of the various movements
by which the Yanktonnais Sioux
finally settled at Grow Creek.
Mr.. Spencer was st the time of
such settlement an official of the gov
ernment in charge Of the Indians and of
course bis version of the case is absolute
ly correct. IL confirms the conclusions
Of Secretary ]. 81. Teller, of the Indian
commission, who made an exhaustive
report, and establishes the legal right of
President Arthur to declare the reserva-
ton open to settlement. President

A DeatIl-Trap In Brooklyn.

NEW York, May 5.-Early this morn.
ing two houses, Nos. 55 and 81 Atlantic
street, Brooklyn, fell in with a crash and
then caught on fire. A number of per-
sons arc reported killed and Others
seriously injured. The Abbott buildings
on State street, which are let out with
steam power for various manufacturing
purposes, together with an extensive
building in the rear, were destroyed.
The rear building WAS undergoing repairs
gave away, when the entire structure
collapsed. The fire then communicated
with the front buildings aud, despite the
efforts Of the firemen, they were destroy
ed. Fifteen workmen are supposed TO be
IN the ruins.
The building destroyed was very large
and consisted of main building, front.
ing on Columbia street, with two wings,
leaving court in the centre. The es.
tablishmrnt covered two thirds of n
block. Ii was occupied by about twenty
manufacturing concerns, who rented
steam power with their rooms and en-
ployed an aggregate Of 800 persons, the
majority girls and women, and the
greater part of them were at work when
the accident occurred. The cause of the
fire was the Uverturning of the boilers of
n soap factory on the second floor.
Tho west wall Of the middle wing on
Atlantic street had settled. Workmen
were sciewing it up with jacks when it
fell with craah. The building was
twenty seven years old and full of in.
flammable material, and it was mass Of
flames in Il few minutes. The heat was
30 fierce that the water was turned to
steam and the 6remen made no impress.
ion upon the fire. They occupied them
selves with life saving and rescued many
women from the upper stories with their
ladders. The loss Of life was greatly in-
creased by the panic which prevailed
among the inmates of the building.
Many women jumped from tho upper
stories before the flames reached them
and without waiting for the fremen's
ladders, which were even then being
raised to them. Some were seen to Jump
from the windows into the burning de.
bris.
A number Of men were at work upon
the wall which collapsed and none of
these has since been seen. Ten working
girls have not been accounted for, Tie
janitor of the building was killed within
its walls after he had given the alarm
and returned to help save life. Four
firemen were caught under one of the
falling wallis, but were dug out alive and
win probably recover though badly in.
jured. The fire chief expresses the opin-
ion that twenty five or more peraons are
under the wreck, NIL dead. Three bodies
have been taken from the ruins. They
were brgned Ebeyond recognition. The
building was owned BY Nathan Gushing,
Of Boston. The losa is estimated at
100000. Insurance unknown.
Later accounts from the Brooklyn dis
aster report only three bodies recovered
and dozen persons unaccuuntsd for. :

Washing the Air.

Those who complain Of rainy weather
earth need washing, but also the air
which we breathe 80 many times day.
The effect Of rain upon the air and the
contents of the rain have been made q
subject Of examination by the meteorolo-
gical council of London during the past
two years. Three stations were used for
collecting the rainfall--one at st. Bar
thoomew's hospital, another at Upper
Hamilton Terrace, in the Northwest por-
tiOn of London, and third at Hackney.
1t was found the rain contained twice as
much impurity as that which fell ut the
suburban stations, and the impurities
gathered at all the stations were in the
same proportion.
The chief impurities were found to be
sulphates and chloride. and it was discov-
cred that the rain caught at ST. Bartho.
lomew's was always contaminated with
scot and disagreeablc to the taste. The
summer rain is more impure than that Of
winter, and in the mixture Of London
rain and SCOT trace of arsenic is found.
In summer the rain was shown to contain
q larger quantity Of sulphates than chic.
rides, which WAS supposed to he owing to
the decomposition of animal aud vegeta.
BILE matter during the warm months.
After the rain has been falling for some
time the impurities ere found to diminish,
and the satisfaction with which we
breathe in The washed air after good
rainfall is an evidence that our senses
bear spontaneous testimony to its purifi.

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.

Mr.. Thomas Hardeman, of Georgia.
has given much time and investigation
to one branch of the educational prob.
lem, aud has succeeded In collecting
much interesting information. In his
view, the defect Ia the public school sys-
teni is the neglect Of instruction and
training for useful occupation. Mr..
Hardeman is not an enemy of the public
school system, and his array Of statistics
and opinions III intended to display it's
defecte, and not Is an impeachment of
the system as a whole. He advocates
lndustrial or mechanical tuition in the
public schools, so that by practical hand.
iwork pupils OF every condition may be
taught the secrets of handicraft, and
obtain some knowledge of engineering,
physics and the practical arts. g'ST'
England has 800 trade schools with
thirty.five thousand pupils. In France
there are trade schools, in eighty cities,
with thirty thousand pupils, besides two
hundred smaller technical schools
Prussia has two hundred schools, and
Bavaria ono hundred and fifty. In the
United States there were only seventy.
FIVE trade schools in 1876 with about
seven thousand, I've hundred pupils.
There Is evidently great room for de-.
velopnent, therefore, in tho direction
pointed out by Mr.. Hardsmau, but it is
always questionable how far It is proper
or ecessary that she free schools should
gives more than. n stsictly elementary
education. The Industrial schools which
are advocated ought not, to be made. an
additional, charge upon the public =
