Livery Stable Takes Fire and Sew
 eraI Firemen Are Crushed Under
 a Falling Wall.
 ALBANY, July 12.-At 3 o'clock this morning fire broke out in the livery stable of Albert w. Burch The fire department was soon on hand The building was of frame and nothing gotten out. The frightened animals sent out cries that were almost hu- man. In less than half an hour the stable was consumed and thirty valuable horses consumed. Meanwhile the large piano man ufaetory of Broadman & Gray ignited and all efforts to save the valuable four-story building were futile. Two frame houses were badly damaged. When the confagra- ton was at it's height the pipe men of steam CT No. 4 and Foreman J. l.. Luby were sta toned in a narrow alley near the north wall of the piano factory. Lubys companions were Rufus F. Townsend, Fred Wallen and Dan Wheeler. A voice from the crowd cried ''For Gods sake come out, men, the wall is going to fall!'' But the roaring of the flames drowned the cry. Soon the wall, which stood fifty feet aloft, was seen to sway and come down on the little band of heroes like a stroke of lightning. MT. Luby was taken out fatally in ured and died to-day. He was an eX-collector of customs of the port of Albany. Townsend and Wallen were seriously wounded. Wheeler was taken out dead. There is bare possibility of Townsend's recovery. The piano factory is a total loss. The re- suit of this fire has been to demonstrate that Chief Engineer McQuade is unfit for the du- ties of his position account of his age and disabilities. The losses and insurances are as follows: Boardman & Gray $15, ,000, insu- rance $10,000; Burch, livery, $27, ,000, insu- rance 5000. Other losses on buildings, etc., $38,0 ,000.
 Two Men Burned fn a Stable Fire.
 BELFAST, Me. July 12.-Fire broke out at a. m. in stable of the Belfast Livery con- and John Casey, who had gone into the sta ble an hour bafore to sleep, were burned to death and third man, James McCabe, bare ley escaped. The fire consumed the remain ing stables, the American House owned by H. N Lancaster, two blocks in- the rear and the Telegraph block. Twenty of the thirty horses of the livery company were burned The fire probably caught from cigar or pipe from the pockets of the men. The loss es are: American House and livery stables, owned by H. NJ Lancaster $25, 900, insurance S12, ,OO0; Belfast livery company, $5,000; A. A. and Mrs. s. A. Homes, Tele graph block, $2,OOO fully insured; William Weeks. proprietor of the American House, $1, 800, uninsured; J. Bean, hat .store, 5000, insured; F. H.

 The statement
 World, attributed tS ger o1 U..- ern Union Telegraph company, that "the Baltimore and Ohio company has been try ing for the past two weeks and is still en- deavoring to get us (the Western Union) to take their wires," is absolutely false. I have had no conference or communication with the Western Union company or with any of it's officers for months and never at any time OH the subject of union with that company. The Baltimore and Ohio company is controlled by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and MT. Robert Garrett, presi- dent of the latter, cabled me from London last Friday to deny the false statements. I sent denial at once to the office of the New York Associated Press, but as it did not ap- pear in Saturdays Associated Press papers I infer that it was for some reason suppressed

A Horse Jumps over a Bridge.

GREENWICH, Conn, July 12.-A thorough bred horse belonging to William Rockefellar, of the Standard Oil Company, while being driven from the Indian Harbor Hotel became frightened and the driver, losing control over him, he started at g mad pace and mar rowly escaded overtuIning MT. Rockefellar and family, who were in their carriage a short distance ahead. The horse then dashed along till he came to the bridge leading to the main road, where there is short turn, and being unable to keep in. the road, he leaped over the bridge railing into the mud and water, throwing the driver out, landing him on his head and injuring him severely. He was picked up and taken to the hotel and physician summoned. The harness and wagon are total wreck. The horse was rescued by some men who were passing and cared for.

Goa,s Flowers.

The Buffalo Catholic Union and Times
represents there are certain flowers
which are favorites with the Deity.
Without tating the source of its infor-
nation, it tells what these flowers are.
There is the passion flower, which wears
"His symbols on her breasts" the morn
ing glory, which praises Him with its
"t0y-like trumpet" the lily, which,
though it neither tolls nor spins" He
has clothed with robes more beautiful
than those of Solomon; the star of Beth
lehem, which bends its ''reverent head"
to Jesus; the 'glad sunfoWer," which
adOringly follows the course of the sun,
emblem of the Lord of Heaven; the
MayfOWer, which peeping from its bed
of snow sings earliest praises for the re-
turning warmth of Spring; the cheerful
pansies, which praise God for "every
weather" and finally, the drOwsy poppy
and the evening primrose, which with
dropping eyelids and perfumed lips
whisper: Thank God for the night
He giveth His beloved sleep"

STATE INDEBTEDNESS.

OF the total bonded Indebtedness of
the State, which is 1895, 600, the State
University fund owns $4,000, the perma-
nent school fund $4,000, the sinking
fund S6l 600, making the total amount Of
State bonds owned by the several State
funds $6l4, 5O0-leaving the total amount
of bonds owned outside of the State
funds, 1921, 600.
In looking at the aggregate indebted
ness, as compared with the aggregate of
taxable property, it should be borne in
mind that the assessed value does not
exceed One-third of the real value, and
some, who ought to be we'll posted think
it does not exceed One-fourth.
For the purpose of having all of these
matters together under one head, we will
say that the total levy of taxes for 1884
for all purposes in the State, amount to
S6,663, 1O5.12, divided as follows-thatais
the following Is the average of the taxes
levied: State taxes, $043 on the 500;
county tax, D on the 500; township
tax, SO.36 on the 800; city tax, SO.36 on
the 500; school district tax, $I.2l on the
500. Total average, $3.59 on the 500.
If we are right in assuming that the
property is assessed at one-third its value
the average rate of taxation for all pur-
poses would be $l.l9 per Sl0O. If prop
erty is only assessed at One-fOurth Of its
actual value, the percentage of taxation
would be $O.89.5.
The total valuation of all railroad
property in the State is included in the
above, but to show what 1t Is, we state
that it amounts to $28, 455, 907.66.

Glass-blOwers are peculiarly suscept-
ible to various diseases of the lips and
cheeks, besides having a predisposition
to tumOrs and rupture, which are the
more serious as boys are employed,
when the system is weakened by rapid
growth, and is liable to be injuriously
acted upon by the high temperature and
dry atmosphere. A process, however,
has been brought into use by NIessrs.
Appert, of England, in which they en-
ploy air stored under great pressure, so
as to dispense altogether with the blow
ing by the mouth, except in few cases.
Not only is an unWhOlesOme practice
put an end to- but the manufacture of
glass is considerably improved, both
from the increased rapidity Of execution
and the larger size of the pieces pro
duced. Although Messrs. Appert's pro
cess is the first one that has come into
practical development, it is not the first
invention of the kind, a workman at
Baccarat, as far back as 1924, having in
vented what was known as the BObinet
piston with the same object of dispens-
ing with the ordinary blowing. 1t was
not successful, for the reason that it held
so little air that only small pieces could
be turned ont

SWITCH WANTED.

O'BRIEN STATION, KAN, December q.
To the Honorable Railroad Commissioners Of Kansas
DEAR SIRs: O'Brien Station is a flag
souri, Pacific Railway, in Miami county,
Kan.5 and has been used as a flag station
ever since the road was built. The COM
pany agreed to put in a switch if the cit
liens would grade and tie said switch.
The grading was done and ties (placed)
on the ground in the spring of 1882.
They then put IN a spur but have never
finished the switch. There has always
been considerab bic shipping done from
this point, but the shipper pays from
RantOne, five miles west of this point,
and also each passenger that gets on at
this point if going west pays fare from
OsaWatOmie, five miles east Of here, and
if going east they pay from RantOne five
miles west of this point.
The citizens of this vicinity addressed
a petition of over forty names to the
company, something over two months
ago, asking that they finish the switch
at this point and give US rates, the same
as other points on the road. The Road
Master came on here to find out the par
ticulars of matters, but that is the last
that has been heard of the matter.
Therefore, we, citizens of O,Brien Sta
ton, appeal to your honorable body,
asking that the company finish the
switch as per agreement and give us
passenger and freight rates from this
point, the same as other points on the
road, and erect a platform for the accom-
mediation Of passengers.

COAL DIsCRLIINATIOE-

WICHITA, KAN, Dec. p, 1884.
To he Honorable Board Of Ralroad Commissioners:
The Frisco Railroad refuses to give a
less rate on coal from OsWegO to Wichita
than 81 so per ton, except the coal that
is mined on land on the line of the
Frisco Road; then the rate is 50 per ton
for $50 miles, which is the distance IA
fraction less) from Oswego to Wichita.
This discrimination seems to be
made to prevent shipments over the
Frisco Road, Of coal mined in the
Indian Territory, loaded at McAllister
and other points. Could the Frisco
Company be compelled to stop this dis
elimination. think there viii be no
scarcity Of fuel in this part of Kansas.
The Fort Scott & Wichita Railroad seems
to be complying with the legal tariff, but
as my yards are located on the Frisco
and A. T., I cannot ship over the Fort
Scott without having to unload and haul
over half q mile in wagons. VIII you
pioase inform me what steps should
take to compel the Frisco to comply
with the established rate?
Respectfully, JOHN EXTORE.
