THE Associated Press sends out from
Washington statement that the United
States will have to pay many millions
of dollars for the burning of Aspinwall
some months ago. The argument is
that the United States Government
guaranteed to keep the transit open on
the Isthmus of Panama between ocean
and ocean, and therefore it must pay
for the destruction of Aspinwall by fire.
This argument seems to be little bit
top heavy. We certainly guaranteed
to keep the transit open and there is n
pretty widespread impression that we
did. We never, however, said any
thing about preventing or being re-
sponsblc for incendiarism on the 18th
mus. The United States authorities
are under no obligation to organize
themselves into an international fire in
surancc company.

ALAS! the poor Mugwump whose
highly cultured mind sees himself in
the clouds and hears himself in the
wind. Lieutenant Governor elect Jones
of Binghamton, N. Y, who is popu.
larly supposed to pay that freight, made
a speech the other night in which he
diagnosed the Mugwump. He said
that the poor Mugwumps came to the
Democratic party last year not for any
love they bore it, but to crafty their
own feelings of revenge No sooner
had the candidate for whom they had
voted been inaugurated than the Mug
wumps came forward and assumed not
only to dictate the policy of the Ad-
ministration, but to take hold of the
best offices under the Government
Disappointed in their impudent aspira-
tions they turned up in opposition to
the Democrats. The latter, said Gen
eral Jones, were willing that such an
alliance should terminate and the
election had forcibly demonstrated
that the Mugwump could be easily dis
pensed with. We do not believe that
General Jones will pay any Mugwump
freight

THE New England Cremation Soci-
ETY., which has just been chartered
with a capital stock of S25, 900 in $500
shares, is to be located in Boston. DR..
John Storer is president and Mr.. Ma.

the world moves. 1t is not so very
many generations ago, if tradition be
true, that Massachusetts thought only
witches good enough to be burned.

THE appointment of General Don
Carlos Buell. TO the Louisville Pension
Agency is one of which no Democrat
has the right to complain. 1t is
good deal more 1t is just recogni-
ton of General Buells honorable

Union, which, in certain influential
quarters were long and Systematically
sought to be underyalued.

Tue relations which existed between
Ferdinand Ward, w. $. Warner and
the Marine Bank are to be asccrtaiucd
if possible through the help of the
grand jury of the United States court.
District Attorney Dorshcimcr wants
to make thorough job of the
whole matter, and there is doubtless
much uneasiness among those who, as
accompliccs or accessories in the conspi.
racy have thus far escaped even sus-
piCion. The New York Star which
may be considered as speaking for Mr..
Dorshcimcr in the premises, thus fore
casts his programme "The relations
of the firm of Grant & Ward, and of
every individual member of that firm,
with the Marine Bank will be invcsti-
gated The relations of others associ-
atcd with the firm and with the bank
will also be discovered. If, as we eX-
poct, the facts presented to the grand
jury warrant indictments for violation
of the national banking laws, every de-
tail of the great swindling scheme will
be laid bare, and facts will be developed
that will give other courts grounds for
action ~

Train Cos of the Iron Mountain Road,
that arrived at the Union Depot yesterday
morning at o'clock, had narrow escape
about 11:40 the night before that would
have resulted in the loss of many lives il
the train had been fifteen minutes later. II
wns between Fredericktown and Marquand,
10i miles from st. Louis, when the train,
containing one baggage-car, two coaches,
and one sleeper, was rounding short
curve. The engineer, named Bayle, OBJ
served that bridge $40, which he was about
TO pass through, about $50 feet in length, was
wrapped in one sheet of flames. To stop
his train Bayle saw was impossible at such
a short distance, and the only alternative
was to go through the bridge ON the track
or go through the small stream that flowed
below. The dash was made safely through
the flames, and then stop was effected,
The train hands all lent helping hand
and the flames were extinguished, but moi
before large portion had been eaten away
by the fire.
The passengers on board the train did
not learn how near they were TO death as
they lay stretched out IN sleep. As stated
by the trainmen in charge, if the train had
been only about fifteen minutes behind
time in reaching this bridge, the fire would
have burned into the supports, and, rs il
would be impossible for. the engineer tc
stop his train, all on board would have
persisted horrible death either by fire
water, or in the collision.-iS 81 Louis Globe

Afraid to Lovs.
My Sadie AurelIss, she drives every day
BY the side OF the sea where the bright pillows
play,
And uncommonly pretty she looks as she sits
In tailor-made costume, the neatest OF fts
And handles the ribbons with sportmaniike zeal
The turnout is as neat as you'll find far ane
wide,
And trim little tiger sits perched by her side.
All, lovely is Sadie, and happy am
To be blessed with her bow as she passes me by,
For she smiles upon me In her beauty and style,
And sweet is her glance when she deigns to be-
guile.
And you wonder, perchance, why 1 don't take
the cue
SO gracious given, and venture to woo,
And DER the smooth road OF loves future to glide
Displacing the tiger who sits by her side.
Well, yes, she is fair; she is lovely, in truth
She has gold she has grace, she is wit, she has
youth
And / think shed have me, If asked hard
enough,
And the road Of the futures not like to be rough.
But steel are her fingers, and steel Is her eye,
And just look at her touch as she ticks on that
hyl
All, how should like 1t, to win such bride,
And TO be just the tiger who sits by her side?

Flowers In CALIFORNIA;.

One OF the most surprising things that
one sees in California is the extraordinary
height to which many of the roses grow,
climbing into the highest trees, covering
the whole side Of house and exposing to
view one vast mass of rosebuds and roses in
full bloom. The Marshal Mel rose ia one
of the most beautiful flowers to be seen in
California. surprising other kinds in the
luxnriance Of its growth. It Is claimed that
the California roses do not possess so fine a
perfume as those in the East, This may be
SO, but for size and beauty Of color and
iuxuriance of growth, they probably COM
pensate for any lack Of fragrance. Hello
tropes and geraniuins can be found in
bushes almost as. large as lilac trees, and
Gala lilies can in some dooryards be count
sd by the hundreds but from their very
numbers they seem 10 give us an impression
Of coarseness. The various cactus plants Of
California are worthy Of close attention and
examination In many localities hundreds
of acres are covered with them. Their pecu.
liar shapes and sizes, some tall and slender,
others short and thick. with bright flowers
nestled among The jagged spines, give {
striking appearance to the landscape. In
some places in Southern California, Arizonl
and New Mexico, the cacti form an almost
impassable barrier.
