Our community is saddened by the
loss of one of our most estimable young
ladies, Mary Silsby, who died Sunday
morning. She leaves widowed mo-
ther, who has the sympathy of a large
circle of friends. Mary came from Lu-
nenburgh two weeks ago, where she
had been taking care of Miss Ella Sis
by, who died there three weeks ago,
and was taken down with typhoid fe-
yer, but was not considered dangerous
by her physician until the night before
her death. She was ready and willing
to obey the call of her Master, and
made all necessary arrangements, also
that her class in Sunday School should
have some token of remembrance
Mary possessed all the qualities of u
true woman. Her death comes very
hard upon her mother who is left
entirely alone. May she be helped
and sustained in this great affection.

Burial of the Cincinnati Victims.

CINcrNSArI, May 23.-The funeral of six of
the victims of Thursdays fire at Sullivans
printing works took place to-day at ST Xavier's
Catholic Church. Four of them the three
Leavin sisters and Miss VIM. had one mass
celebrated by Father Brady. Father Meyers
said mass for Mrs. Bell. and Father Boex for
John Sullivan. Ali the collins were, in the
church at one time. They. We're almost buried
with flowers. and the body of the house was
crowded to its utmost capacity, very largely
with working girls The scene was most inn
pressive. The other victims were buried from
different places.
( AT the coroner's inquest on the victims of the
fire. w b. Smith testified that he had owned
the building since 1881 He had offered to erect
"a fire escape, but was told by AS
sistant Fire Inspector Blake that it was
not necessary, as orc was working
up stairs. This statement was made several
months ago, before the, girls were employed in
the upper story. Mr.. Smith said that Mr. Sui
livan, who occupied almost the entire building,
had not informed him the girls were working
there.

cision regarding her. The following is copy OF
a letter which he has sent to Mr.. John Roach, OF
New York he. builder:
you will, L think. recognize that the per-
Torrance of the Dolphin thus far imposes upon
me the duty of exercsingan unusual degree of
caution in dealing with her. What would have
been reasonable prudence in me some weeks
since would not be so now. 1t is quite posi-
bic that the difficulties encountered in max
ing her go through trial trip may
have been due to accident and temporary
causes, but You would not now expect her to be
accepted without your having an opportunity to
demonstrate beyond all question the high char
acter of her work. Understood you to assent
to this proposition in our conversation yester-
day, and while | do not understand you now to
claim for her the speed nor the horse power con-
templated you do insist, so far as your part IS
concerned, the plans have been properly executed.
l. have given orders, in accordance with our
arrangement yesterday. for a further trial TO
be held, under similar conditions as that OF last
Thursday, the 18th inst. In addition to this
must ask that she be put to similar run at sea.
upon such day as you may name. do not insist
upon her full horse power. or fifteen knots speed,
upon this latter trial, if deemed by you too
trying, upon her new machinery. speed OF
twelve knots will answer the conditions under
which wish to place her. She should be loaded
to something near her lines, and the expense of
this latter trial will be borne by the government
inrcase she is accented
