BISHOP KENRICK.
How He Sought Asylum with DIR. Tying
Forty Years Ago.
Philadelphia Record.

Philadelphia Record.
"A statement made by the Rev DR.. Richard
Newton at she funeral of the Rev. DIR. Tying, in
New \ ork, on Tuesday, has given rise to consid-
cradle dlspleasure among Catholics in this city
on account of its incorrectness. Dr. Newton is
reported to have said:
When the Know nothing party was an ele-
ment of excitement mob surged through the
streets of Philadelphia and set fire TO the largest
Roman Catholic church in the city The Bishop
learning of the approach of the rioters. ran to
the house of DIR. Tying and threw himself at the
feet of the Protestant minister, begging for
shelter. DIR. Tying took him in and locked him
In his parlor, and went out alone to meet the
mob. whose shouts could already be heard as
they surged toward the house where the bishop
had taken shelter, Standing before his own
door, Dr. Tying addressed the following words
to the Infatuated crowd: Not one of you shall
touch hair of that good mans head unless you
pass over my dead body The mob left and the
Bishops life was saved"
Besides making the error of calling the native
American riots of 1874 the Kuow-nothing excite
ment, Dr. Newton is mistaken as to the other
alleged facts. AT the time referred to the bishop
OF Philadelphia was the Right Rev. Francis Pat
rick henrick. ExJudge James Campbell who
was then on the BENCH remembers exactly what
took place on that occasion He says that Bishop
kenrlck and DIR. Tying, who then lived in this
city, were on intimate terms.
1t was tina of fearful excitement" said Mr.
Campbell yesterday ''and the feeling against
tines Church and parsonage and ST. Michaers
Church and parsonage had been burned to the
ground. All the Catholic churches were in dan
ger, and the mob had threatened to reduce St.
Johns Church, then the Cathedral, to ashes. The
episcopaliresidence djoined the church. Some of
the prominent members of st. Johns believing
the Bishop to be in danger, persuaded him
against his will to seek shelter with DR.. Tying
until what they believed to be the Bishops dan
ger had passed. But the Bishop did not throw
himself at DR.. Tyng's feet-this is ridiculous
nor was there any crowd about to attack ST.
Johns Church or surging toward Dr. Tyng's
house. nor did he address the mob, simply be-
cause there was no mob to address Dr. Newton
is mistaken as to all that took place. except as
to the fact that the Bishop did not 60 to DR..
Iyngs house and remain there until the imme-
date excitement subsidized"
The Rev. Nicholas Cantwell, of the Church of
st. Phillip de Neri, is the only Catholic clergy
man who Is now in the city who was located in
Philadelphia during the terrible riots. He says
that Bishop Kenrick did take shelter with DR..
Tying, but only did so upon the persistent per
suasion of his friends, and afterward regarded
the step as altogether unnecessary

Few persons are aware of the extensive nature
of the victualing on board the great ocean steam
ers. Each vessel is provisioned as follows for
the passengers and crew: Three thousand five
hundred pounds of butter 5000 hams; 600
for the crew; g. 600 pounds of grapes, almonds.

and jellies; timed meats. 5000 pounds; dried
beans 1900 pounds; rice. 5000 pounds; onions,
5000 pounds; potatoes, 40 tons; -four 800 bar
rels and eggs, 1900 dozen. Fresh vegetables,
dead meat and live bullocks, sheep, pigs geese,
turkeys, ducks, fowls and casual game are
generally supplied at each port, so that it is
difficult to estimate them. Probably two dozen
bullocks and sixty sheep would be fair average
for the whole voyage, and the rest may be in
ferred in proportion. During the summer
months, when travelling is heavy, twenty-five
fowls are often used in soup for single dinner

nature. Hewn out of the living rock on the face
of the Palisades, unique and creditable monu
ment could be erected whether after the manner
of the rock temples of India, a structure of

their skill in fashioning colossal sculptured

THE WAY THAT BILLY COULD RIDE.
BY JAMES wHITcoMB RILEY.

o the way that Billy could ride!
You should hear Grandfather tell of the lad
For Grandfather he was a horseman too
Though he couldn't ride now as he used to do,
1t yet was his glory and boast and pride.
That he'd back" Billy for all he had
And that's a cool million, I'll say to you'll
And you should hear him, with all his praise
Of this boy Billy, and his wild Ways
The way that he handled horse, and the way
He rode in town on election day.
The way he bantered, and gated aud guyed,
And the ways he swopped, and the ways he lied
And the way he'd laugh at his victims grim,
Till half of the time they would laugh with him,
Forgetting their anger, and pacifed-
Seeing the way that Billy could ride!

I have been afflicted with catarrh for
20 years. Itlbecame chronic, and there
was constant dropping of mucous
matter from the roof of my mouth. 1t
extended to my throat, causing hoarse-
ness and great difficulty in speaking,
indeed for years was not able to speak
more than thirty minutes, and often
this with great difficulty. 1 also, to a
great extent, lost the sense of hearing
in the left ear, and of taste. BY the use
of Ely's Cream Balm all dropping of
mucous has ceased and my voice and

NATURAL GAS.
What May be Considered settled
concerning It's Origin and Ac-
cumulation.


The recently announced failure Of the
natural gas wells or Champaign, ILL.,,
indicates that the supply In the vicini-
} ~ or Pittsburg and elsewhere may not
be fnexhaustible, and may have arous-
ed anxiety in the minds of those who
have invested in this new form Of en-
terprise. There Is great deal to be
learned In regard to petroleum and
natural gas, but few points as to their
origin and mode OF accumulation may
be counted settled. They are derived
nom organic matter distributed
through the rocks in which they occur;
In other words, they are fossil fuel, as
really as coal or Ignite. They were ac-
cumulated In subterranean reservoirs,
which are mainly porous sandstones or
iimestones, covered with impervious
shales, and there is no reason to believe
that these accumulations are of recent
date. A gas we'll or oil well can no
more be Hinexhaustiblen than a coal
mine. While oil Is mobile and can be
drawn through the rocks for some dis
lance to the point of delivery, gas is
still more mobile and may travel farth-
er; but the supply Of either or both
from q given area Is limited and def
mite. Single gas wells will fail like
single mines, but the field may last for
long time. The first anthracite min
ed In Pennsylvania was opened in a
pocket of large extent. The proprietors
counted it "inexhaustible" and panic
seized them when they found the rock
floor beneath it at no great depth. But
q good deal of anthracite has been dis
covered since. The failure of one set
OF gas wells has but little bearing on
the life of another set, with other
sources of supply, with other sorts of
reservoirs and with other conditions as
to depth and geological structure.
