An epidemic of disease resembling
typhoid fever is raging in Plymouth,
Pa, small town three miles from
Wilkesbarre. There are upwards Of
800 cases of sickness. Fifteen deaths
occurred Saturday and thirteen Friday.
The physic"ns are unable te stay the
spread Of the disease, which is due to
the bad sanitary condition of the town,
there being no sewers or cutters to car
ry off refuse.
The frightful epidemic prevailing at
Plymouth has practically stopped all
stores and undertaking establishments.
Six deaths from typhoiC-malarial fever
took place on Sunday and there were
nine funerals. The whole town APP
pears to be in mourning.
AT meeting of the borough council
the cause of the pestilence was fully
discussed, and it was decided to clean
the streets, alleys and back yards at
once. When this work is accomplished
a project for the building Of sewers
throughout the town will be submitted
to the vote of the people. The water
company Of the village, having made a
careful Investigation, have notified the
council that they were supplying pure,
wholesome, water, and that one chief
cause of the epidemic was that large
portion of The village was supplied with
water from wells which had become
polluted,

Attempt. 10 Burn Two Towns

Between IL O'Clock Sunday night and
4o'clock Monday morning four attempts
were made to burn the towns of West
ernport, Md, and Piedmont, w. Va.
Westernport is just over the river from
Piedmont. The first attempt was made
In the store of j. 5. Miller Il Co., Of
Westernport. A lot of cotton waste,
saturated with oil, was placed beside
the building and set fire to. 1t blazed
brightly and attracted the attention of
j. +. Gary aud E. Kent, Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad men, both of Baltimore,
but stopping ut the Sims house to await
their train crew.
The fire was eXtinguished with tri-
fling damage. Subsequently three other
similar attempts were made in the stores
of Jamison & Kalbaugh, of Western
port, and Suter 81 Minshall aud w. III.
Gilbert, of Piedmont. They were all
detected in ample time to prevent any
serious consequences. The similarity
Ut the means used in each of the four
cases proves that one head planned the
whole affair. The general opinion is
that the motive in all the cases was to
get up All extensive excitement, burn
large part of each town and during the
confusion rob the stores.

svee.hear, and Godmo,her.

A dispatch from Pittsburg, Pa, states
that b. becoming the godmother Of
william Finn, a young painter OF that
city, Jennie Hook lost husband. Finn
was Protestant. Jennie and her folks
were Catholics. He had cOurted her
for several years, but difference of re-
ligion formed a barrier to their mar
riage. Finally, her loving persuasion
induced him to express his Willingness
to beeome a Catholic. When the young
man went to the priest to be baptized,
he was accompanied only by his sweet
heart. In cases Of this kind, where the
convert has no parents protesting the
same belief, it is necessary that some
one shall act in that capacity, becoming
their godfather or gOdmother, and
pledging themselves to act in that ca
pacity and keep Il guardianship over
them through life, and this pledge is
considered by Catholics TO be peculiarly
solemn aud binding. When, during
the baptismal ceremony, the prizes:
turned to the young lady and asked her
if she intended to act as godmother, she
joyfully assented. 1t was such novel
Thing to be the godmother of her lover.
The priest, however, did not know that
they were lovers. When the ceremony
was over the young girl told how the
work of that hour had destroyed the
barriers, and that they would shortly
come before him to solcmnize another
ceremony and to ask his blessing. The
priest had sat down during the brief
recital, and was looking at the two with
a face of grave surprise and sorrow.
"My dear children" he said, "therc
has been great mistake made" and TO
the young woman he said, "You pledg-
ed yourself as this young mans god
mother; you cannot become his wife,"
A distressing scene followed. The good
father comforted them as best as he
could aud offered them, as the only con-
ISOLATION 1T hand, that perhaps petit
ton to Rome might absolve her from
her vows. They went away, and this
advice WAS acted uponas quickly rs pos
sible. They waited anXiously for Il
long time, but hope SO long deferred
made sick the heart Of one OF them, at
least. At last the bridegroom, feeling
the Injustice of keeping him waiting so
long, insisted on her giving him release.
Since then he has married. Il young lady
of Penn avenue, school teacher, being
his choice.
She lived but few months after the
wedding and the petition to Rome is
being agitated again, us the young god
mother still loves the man she convert
ed and is willing to become his wife.
