A Valuable Historical Document.

Among the historical letters and
autographs now exhibited in the Kings
Library at the British Museum there is
a letter of Edward VI. to the Bishops
in confirmation of the use of the Book
of Common Prayer, certain evil-dis-
posed persons ''syns the apprehension
of the Duke of Somerset" having
''noysed and bruted abrode that they
shouldc have agayne their olde Laten
service, their conioured bread, and
water, with such like wayne and super
sticiOus ceremonies, as though the set
ting forth of the said boOke had been
the Onelye acte of the aforenamed
Duke" The letter, which is dated 18th
December, 1919, gives command to the
Bishops to collect all books of service
the keeping whereof SHOULD be lette
to the using of the said Booke of Com
mon Prayers" and TO ''deface and
abolish" them. Further, they are to
punish all forward and obstinate per-
sons who ''do refuse to pave towardes
the FINDING of bread and wyne for the
holye Communion according to the
ordre prescribed in the said booke."

TEMPERANCE.

Meeting OF the Kansas State temperance
Committee-Its Action.
LAWRENCE, KAN, December 1.-The
State Central Committee of the Prohibition
party held a meeting in this city yesterday
afternoon and evening. Ex-Governor St
John was present and spoke. He claimed
the result of the recent elections in Ohio
and New York as well as those in the
South show that temperance people are in
favor of a third party. A series of resOlu-
tons denouncing the Republican party
leaders was passed, and especially the at
tempts that are being made to close saloons
in the Missouri River towns, claiming that
it is only done for effect and the officers
and party leaders are not in favor
of prohibition. At the close of the
meeting a subscription paper was passed
and some $500 subscribed for the purpose
of at once inauguratiug vigorous caln-
paign for 1856. The plan as proposed is to
send speakers and lecturers to every town
in the State. The leaders have many sug-
gestiOns to make in regard to the present
prohibitory law, and will ask for number
of changes at the special session of the
Legislature. They also announce that next
fall they will place full State aud Con-
greSSional ticket in the field.

A Spiritual Seance Invaded BY Skeptics,
Who Surprise the Medium, in Somewhat
Airy Attire, Impersonating Spirit and
Break Up the ShOw--The Medium Arrest
ed.
STRAWBERRY POINT, IA, December
&c. Z. Wyman, the spiritualistic me-
dunn, has been holding seances at the
house of w. B. Field for a couple OF
weeks past, the attendance being large
each evening, the medium not forgetting
to collect one dollar from each person in
attendance. Quite Il number of citizens
have been worked up to high pitch, sew
eral being on the verge of insanity, oveI
the adroit manner in which he brought
up the "SO-called spirits" of their depart
ed friends. Several skeptical young
men attended the SeanceS Saturday
night with the determination of exposing
what they considered a palpable fraud.
Accordingly one of them managed to Sc
cure seat near the cabinet from which
the spirits materialiZed. The clothing OF
the medium was sewcd securely to
chair i'll the cabinet, the circle formed
and the lighSl turned down. Soon the
spirit of the father of one of the com
pany was matcrialized and reached out to
shake hands with his son, when the
young man near the cabinet grap-
pied with the messenger from the
other world and threw him tc
the floor. The believers imme.
diatcly hurled themselves upon the dar-
ing young man; upon which the other
skepticS took hand in the affair, and fol-
a while pandemOnium reigncd with the
spirit believers and unbeiievers rolling
on the floor of the dimly lighted room.
The lights were ut length turned up,
when, to the amazement of the unbe-
heving circle, the materialiZed spirit
proved to be the medium in an exceed
ingly airy attire, while the clothing out OF
which he had slipped remained sewed to
the chair. The Indignation was great
among the SpirItualists as well as others,
and tar and feathers were strongly talked
of for time, but finally cooler judgment
prevailed and warrant was sworn out
for Wyman's arrest for obtaining money
under false pretenses. A hearing was
had before Justice Baird, Wyman plead
ing guilty, and, in default of bail, was
remanded to the County Jail, to await
the action of the Grand Jury

A Fire at Detroit Does Damage to the Ex-
tent of 100000.
DETROIT, December 4.-Yesterday morn
ing at six o'clock fire broke out in the stock
room of the Barnum wire works. There
was delay of fully ten minutes before an
alarm could be turned in, and the fire
spread with great rapidty. Three alarms
were sent in, and half dozen engines
were called but the whole building was a
mass of flame before they arrived. A gale
of wind from the west famed the flames
into fury, huge cinders were hurled high
into the air and carried them blocks away,
and for a time it seemed that the
whole neighbOrhood was doomed The
efforts of the fire department were de-
voted chiefly to saving property in the
neighborhoOd, it being impossible to save
the wire works. Notwithstanding the hard
work of the firemen. the fire spread to
Howard street, and the men were CON-
PEELED to retreat before the flames with
scorched hands and faces burned. The
heat was intense, and set fire to three
double, two-StOry houses, which were about
half consumed before the firemen could get
TO work on them. The occupants were
able TO move most of their furniture to q
place of safety. These houses were valued
at $4,000; insured for $4,000. After the
fire in the wire works had burned for some
hours the walls began to fall, and the fire.

were an almost entire loss. Building,

a Tug Boat Blown Up and All Hands
n-S& Lost.
New YORK, December AT about six
O'Clock last evening while the tugboat Dory
Emory was towing stone barge up the
East River her boiler exploded opposite
Sixteenth street. The report of the ex-
pIosion was heard at least two miles and
number of boats put out to render assist
snce, but no trace of the tug could be
found and it is believed that she sank i'm
mediateIy with all on board. The barge
was taken in tow and made fast to pier
at Blackwelrs Island. The search for the
tug and its crew continued for some time,
but no trace of either was found. Persons
near the scene of the explosion say the tug
was blown TO pieces, and all
on board were drowned. Persons
living along the river front describe
the explosion as terrific. The windows
of many houses in the neighborhOOd were
completely shattered. Several buildings
were badly shaken. and for a time great
excitement prevailed. Horace A. Green, a
deck hand, employed on the steamer Frank
lin Edison, which was about $50 yards dis
tant, says that Immediately after the ex-
plOsion he put off in boat to render assist
ance, but could find no trace of the tug or
of any Of the crew. AS far as can be
learned the crew numbered six men, and
there seems little doubt that all persisted.
The names of the men have not yet been
learned. The crew of the tug consisted of
five men: Captain Garrett Morris; Louis
Capperati, engineer; Charles Davis, cook:
Thomas Van Hansen, fireman; Garret Nor
riS, Jr., deck hand. Last evening
the tug started down the river
with scow dashed to its side. The scow
was freighted with stone for ballast A.
He'll Gate strong flood tide was too much
for the tug, so she put on extra steam to aid
in stemming the current The supposition
is that the extra pressure was too sudden
and caused the disaster. A steam launch
picked up the scow on which there were. at
the time of the accident, four men. The
health boat was at the scene of the explo-
sion soon after the accident, but found 10
trace of any of the crew. There is
no doubt but that all persisted. The Dory
Emery was valued at $4,000.

BLUE SUNLIGHT.
An Expert Vows That the Orb of Day Is
Beautifully Blue.


Beautifully Blue.
Prof. C. P. Langley, of the Allegheny
Observatory, has returned to Pitts
burgh from Europe. He is making re-
searches as to solar heat and spots up
on the sun for the Government. The
greater part of his trip was spent at
the various observatories IN England
and France. my observations have
convinced me-" said Prof. Langley,
THAT we have a mistaken conception
of the color of sunlight. Many sup
pose it to be white, while in reality it
is blue. The delusion is owing to our
senses, because we have never been
able to see the true color of the sun.
Suppose man who had lived from in
fancy under the roof of a cavern,
where the light outside is inferred only
by its shadows, was brought for the
first time into the full splendors of the
sun, what would be his conception of
the color? If that cave had been lit
by sunshine coming through a reddish
glass in the roof would the perpetual
dweller ever have had an idea but that
the sun was red? How is he to know
the glass is colored if he has never had
anything in his life to compare it with?
How can he have any idea but that this
is the sum of all the suns radiation?
corresponding to our idea of white or
colorless light. VIII not the habit of
his life confirm his idea that the sun is
red, and will he not think there is no
color in the glass so long as he can not
90 outside to see? Habit is equally
strong with US whether we dwell in
cave or under the sky. All men, edu-
Gated or ignorant, appear to have the
evidence in their senses that the air is
colorless and that pure sunlight is
white: so that if l venture to show
that the sun is blue and that the air re-
ally acts like an orange-colored veil or
sieve, which picks out the blue and
leaves the white, l do so in the conf
dence that am able to prove the as
sertion, as it has been a study of mine
for number of years. l do not mean
to say that the original sunlight is a
pure monochromatic blue by any
means, but that, though its rays con-
tain red, orange, blue, and all the
other spectral colors, the blue, the vi
olet and the allied tints were original
ly there in disproportionate amounts"

Three Children Burned to Death.

About eleven O'Clock yesterday morning
Mrs. Mary Fitzgerald, wife of Patrick
Fitzgerald, who lives on Fingley street,
had occasion to 90 out for a few moments
on an errand, leaving three small children
in the house. In her absence the chill
dren found some matches and commenced
striking them, setting IRE 10 a bed &
which baby lay. When the neighbors
went into the house they found the babe
in the bed burned to crisp, and two
children, aged three and four years, liz
the room smothered TO death. When the
mother returned and found her childrea
lead, she was almost wild with grief.
