IN BADLY sCORCHED CONDITION.
PORTLAND, OREG., July 3O.-The county jail
at Baker City, Oreg., was burned Wednesday
sixth was severely scorched. One ofthe prisoners
complained Of feeling sick, and the jailer
stepped across the street to drugstore to get
medicine. A moment later the alarm Of Dire
was given. The building was Of wood, and the
fire spread very rapidly. The doors were broken
open, but the flames and smoke drove the
crowd repeatedly back. With great difficulty
Fred Winkeiman, the half.witted murderer Of
Allen Rivers, was dragged nom his cell insen-
sible and badly burned. The i've other prison.
eu In the jail were abandoned to their fate. The
names Of the victims are Louis Miller, George
Plumb, Samuel Brown, William Lamb, and
John Cooley. Every appearance indicates that
the tail was set on dre by Winkelmen. who

The EEypttAn Loan.
SOME PECULIAR FEATURES OF THE TRANsAC-

TON MADE PUBLIC.
LONDON, July 30-In the house of commons
tonight Mr.. Henry LabOucher will ask the
government whether the Gladstone govern
ment had not intended that the Bank of Eng
lie tender and why, If such arrangement
had been made 1t had been altered, seeing that
the premium on the bonds which would have
been obtained would have saved 100000 to
the Egyptian treasury.
The Daily Necs states that it believes it to be
a fact that Mr.. Gladstone intended that the
Bank of England should issue the loan It ia
reported, the Ners says, that Prince Bismarck
insisted that German financial houses should
share the s'plunder" and that the MARQUIS of
Salisbury complied in order to cOnciliate Prince
Bismarck.

Vanished Hopes.
CHAPTER II.

CHAPTER II.
Mr.. EDITOR-Will you accept the
following from one who is for short
time an abilene girl'' ?
80, wad some power the giftie gle us,
To see ourselves as fthers see us"
Yes, we would give worlds if some
gift would give us the power to see our
selves, as some, at least, see us, when
we, the nice, modest (?) girls of the
nineteenth century step out into the
public market, with all the God given
beauty we possess as carefully arranged
as the stock of goods in any show Win
dow. While we, with our sweetest
smiles and most foolish testing, auc-
ton ourselves off to the highest bidder.
Yes, I'VE girls should club together
and pray" pray with our whole souls,
not ''fOr cramps to Overtake the young
men," but for some power to Overtake
the girls to keep them from tri1ing with
that grandest, most potent gift to NOR
tails given-love.
True, the puritanic ideas, imported
by the May Flower, are no longer upon
voyage. But real, modest wOmanhoOd,
has ever been, is, and must be, the
same.
Who of us, seeing beautiful, luscious
pear growing upon tree in our garden,
would go to it daily before it ripens and
take bite, thinking that it would leave
no scar. Better, far better, bring to
the man whose help-mate you are to be
through life, perfect heart without
the scars which each bite of a Irritation
will leave. For shame never offer a
true, noble young man heart which
has been broken excuse my orientalism,
/ should have said 'mashed'') many
times upon brainless tops whose very
stylish standing collar beneath very
shallow countenance too often reminds
one Of a white washed fence around a
lunatic asylum CREOLA.
The Abilene reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1883-1888, 1885-01-29

The attempt to blow up the English
House of Parliament, last Saturday
with dynamite was not the work. of true
Irishmen. The dastardly deed is de-
nOunced as strongly by all honorable
and patriotic Irishmen as by the whole
civilized world. The friends of Ireland
do not want such cOwardly and infa-
nous warfare to longer disgrace them
and work injury to their cause. We
believe that the great majority of Irish
men in this country will endorse Sena-
tor EDMUNDs' bill which seeks to sup
press the dynamite fiend in America.
The United States owes it to herself,
owes it to the civilized world, to make
a vigorous effort to stop the manufac-
ture of dynamite within her borders
and to suppress, as much as possible,
the socialists and dynamiters who are
making her territory the base Of their
cOwardly warfare against England. The
freedom of Ireland will never be OBJ
tanned through such explosions as those
of last Saturday, which came near de-
strOying a majestic and historical build
ing and killing helpless and innocent
women and children. While the Irish
people, as nation, can not be held in
any way responsible for the great crime
of last Saturday, they know that such
diabolical attempts result in arraying
the opinions and sympathieS Of the en-
tire civilized world against them
Knowing this, the true Irish patriots of
America will assist the Government in
any effort to drive the dynamiters out
Of the country.

That Insurance Company Again.

No one can be more DESTROYS of build
ing up home insurance company than
L am. But we do not propose to be
hoodwinked. We are now in earnest.
Nothing but clean. clear cut eXplana-
ton on the part of the company will. at
this late hour, be acceptable. The fact
that Morton has been relieved as secre-
| tary of the company is a move in the
right direction. But am sorry to say
that the election of the new secretary
Is greatly TO be lamented. No careful.
competent business man would assume
charge of the company under the cir
cumstances. without first having had
thorough and impartial investigation of
the books and papers of said company.
He certainly knew, or should have
known, that this has been and remains
the main point of attack. On this
ground the fight commenced and on it
the war will continue unless that in
yeStigatiOn is made.
If the present secretary wants to con-
clllate the policy holders and restore
confidence he should have had this done
before he even consented to accept the
cation of the investigation made to the
public would have placed the present
secretary on quite different grounds,
His first step is unwise, inconsiderate
and mbecoming a competent business
man. If the managers of that company
had done the fair thing they would have
convened as many of its policy holders
as could have been brought together.
Hence, in trying to avoid Charybdis
they have run upon Scylla. We WOuld
like to submit the following questions
to them for light:
What is your definition of a mutual
insurance company? The company has
used the name mutual all the time. but |
we have failed to find anything of a mn
tual character in its practical working.
What we want to know is, what kind |
of thing is this company? Is it ann |
tual or Is it a stock company? Now.
no lodging, there has been enough of /
that. We. are asked to cease HOSTILE
ties and put confidence in the COMPANY
again. l, for one, want to know in
what we are to put confidence. Is the
to be put in stock companv
or IN mutual? | have not been able
to find man in or out of the company
who could or would tell me what this
company really is. We know what II
claims to be, but what is it?

Kansas At The Worlds Exposition

This department presents some very
striking features. In the center of the
| space a monument SurmOUnted by a
| colossal figure Of Ceres towers on high,
| drawing attention to the exhibit from
all parts Of the building. The goddess
carries in one hand a reaping hook, and
on the other arm is shield displaying
an inscription eXtOlling the merits of
Kansas. The pedestal is Ornamented
with grains and grasses in various ar
raDgements and geometrical designs,
and two huge buffalo heads stand out
on either side. At the base are open
sacks of corn, wheat and other grains.
The whole structure is fOrty-two feet
high and is one of the important points
of interest in the building The tall
monument of Dakota. with the Ameri-
can eagle at the apex, the pillar of Min
nesOta with the statue Of Liberty En-
lightning the World and the beauti-
full Ceres of Kansas form a monumental
trio Of striking effect.
The various plane surfaces of the
structures in the Kansas exhibit are
covered with inscriptions relative to the
agricultural industry of Kansas, the
population Of the state, its wealth. its
school fund, which, by the way, amounts
to 50, 100000, and others of a general
nature. One Of the latter, which has
elected much comment, reads as fol-
lows: Egypt in all its glory, could not
compete with Kansas in the quality and
quantity Of its corn. If Joseph were
alive he would telegraph his brethren to
come to Kansas on the first train
Cotton and sugar, the latter made from |
sorghum, fill corresponding positions of
two sides OF the monument. 4 large |
screen displays on one side magnif-
cent display Of the grasses of the state,
and on the other Il complete map of |
Kansas, showing the location of every
school house. The display of fruits is
very large and excellent. \ striking
feature of this display is a large case of
fruits, some forty varieties,
raised and evaporated by the same far
mer. OF the agricultural curiosities in
the building Kansas possesses one of
the greatest in the form of mammoth
ear of corn, twenty-siX inches in length.
The exhibit is now in charge of Hon.
Frank Bacon, the United States Com
missioner for Kansas.
