The telephone, like the electric light
and other modern appliances, has not
been so widely or So quickly adopted
in England as in other civilized coun-
tries. There n many large firms anG
corporations in London and other
English cities which use the telephone,
but private instruments" make their
way slowly into favor. The reason
Tor this may be found largely in the
natural conservatism Of the English
people. The London Standard, how
ever, finds, as one excuse for this state
OF things, a Discrimination or the part
Of English men of business to conduct
matters at "the high pressure speed
of the Americans"

Romance and Crime.

George t. Murray a medicals student aged
t~wenty-one, Of Virginia, went to England
on a pleasure tour u short time ago. While
at Ealing, about-twenty miles from Lon
don, he met and on Dec. / married Miss
Josie Marion Broone, aged seventeen, said
to be an heiress to $1,000 in her W
right. About tendays ago the couple reach
ed New York and shortly thereafter MUIR
ray went to Virginia on business,
leaving his wife at the hotel. During his
absence she renewed an acquaintance
formed on the steamer with a young man,
and finally consented to leave her husband.
On the latter's return to New FORK he con
suited a lawyer, who waited on the wife
with IL confession of adultery which she
was asked to sign, but refused. A few
days ago Murray called at the house OF Mrs.
McQuade, where his wife had taken rooms,
said that he wanted to see his wife and was
admitted. Ten minutes after Mrs. Nc
Quade heard Mrs. Murrayscream and rush
ing in found Murray standing over his girl
wife and trying to force her to drink some
thing. When the landlady appeared he
drank the liquid himself. 1t was laudanum.
A doctor was summoned and Murray was
taken to ST. Vincent's hospital, where he IL
held as a prisoner.

Tho pope ON Christian Education.

A copy of n jefferson by Pope Leo NH.
to the Roman Catholic hierarchy OF Eng
land has just been received in Baltimore
by Archbishop Gibbons, the primate OF the
church in America. The subject OF the let
ter is Christian education.
The Pope cOmmcnds the great vigilance
Of the clergy in looking after the Christian
education Of the children of England. He
encourages and praises them and assures
them of his special commentator and
good will in the prosecution OF their mcrl-
tOriOus work. The laity also come in for
a share OF the pOpe's commentator Tor
their readiness TO supply what is needed
for the maintenance of the schools; not
only the wealthy contributors, but those
who are OF very slender means n poor.
The pope then continues: In these days,
and in the present condition OF the world,
when the tender age of children is tempted
on every side by so many and various
dangers, hardly anything can be imagined
more fitting than the union with literary in
struCtion of sound teaching in faith and
morals. For this reason We have more
han once said that we strongly approve OF
the voluntary schools which by the work and
liberality ofprivate individuals have been es-
tablished in America and elsewhere. Wede-
sire their number increased as much as pos
sible. We ourselves, seeing the condition OF
things in this city, continue with the great
est effort and at great cost to provide an
abundance of such schools for the children
of Rome, for il is in and by these schools
that the Catholic faith, our greatest in
heritanCe. is preserved whole and entire.
In these schools the liberty OF parents is
respected, and what's most needed especial
" in the prevailing license Of opinion and
action is supplied by these schools. Thus
good citizens are brought up for the state;
for there is no better citizen than the man
who has believed and practiced the Chris
tian faith from his childhood. The future
condition Of the state depends upon tn
early training ofthe children. The wisdom
of our foreiathers and the very foundations
of the state ire ruined by destructive errors
of those who have children brought up
without religious education. You see,
therefore, venerable brethren, with what
earnest f~orethought parents must beware
OF entrusting their children to school in
which they cannot receive religious teach
ing"

There are go, 1873 enrolled pupils
entitled to attend the commons schools
of the State of Pennsylvania; but
there are 325, $50 children who do mot
attend. AS the Philadelphia Record
putsit, "that until this grand army of
the unschooled is reduced to lesser
proportions, what amazing folly it is
to divert the money paid for the sup
port of public schools to higher educa-
ton, ~neglecting what is fundamental.
We want school room for the children
in the schools. Hygiene and physiol-
ogy can wait awhile"

The Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland held
q meeting in Dublin on the 21st inst. to de-
wise means for opposing the scheme ofhome
rule for Ireland, and q large number OF PEG.
pie and several Loyalist member OF the
house OF commons were present. A mani
festo addressed to the Orangemen OF Great
Britain was drafted and viii be posted
throughout Great Britain and Ireland.
This manifesto is substantially as follows:
The aspect of affairs in Ireland was never
more menacing than ut present. Protest
antism in three OF the four provinces is at
the mercy OF avowed c~onspirators, who are
~endeavoring to overthrow the rule OF the
imperial government. The duty OF all
true Irishmen is plain. While unwaveringly
upholding Orange principles and abating
not n iot u conscious opinions, we
shall cordially welcome all who are willing to
assist in keeping intact the bond Of unity
with the great empire or which we are
proud to form a not u~nimportant part.
Our little band OF Loyalists finds itself in a
position Of unequaled difficulty. We are
greatly outnumbered by the members OF
the Irish National league-the direct heirs
and successors Of the lane league, which
even a liberal government was forced to
suppress as Illegal, and which is answer
able for many thousands Of outrages. The
small but firmly united band of members of
the house OF commons, by energy and de-
termir Gon, may convince their English
brethren that the Loyalists represent tho
industry and intelligence OF Ireland. II the
Parnellite faction does not succeed wholly
in it's endeavors TO sever the union by de-
grees, one Of the first points which it will
! seek TO obtain will be the complete control
of educational matters. This would give
the Parnallites control OF the rising gencr-
alton, while the command Of the police

manded by Mr.. Parnel's nominees. as
would certainly be the case in the event OF

Under the call ofStates in the House

.anche of bills was acknowledgements
almost every conceivable subject of
legislation. Several hundred were pre-
sented, although only about half the
states were called when the house adj

few original measures introduced,
most of them being bills that were mp
on the calendar or before the commit

that the committee on rules required
vigorous persuasion to allow Of their

Imprisoned Miners Left to Their Doom

The telegraph recently gave an account
OF the Caving in OF a coal mine by which
about one hundred miners were imprisoned
with little hope OF rescue. A late dispatch
says: There is no rest in Nanticoke. II
is impossible to describe in words the con.
~sternatiOn, the dismay, the agony which
spread throughout the village when it was
learned. after midnight, that all efforts to
get the entombed men out alive
were abandoned. The town never
saw such u sight. The whole popu-
lation was on the street discussing in
the widest manner the decision to abandon
the efforts at rescue. Explanations OF de-
spair, cries of agony and mutterings odds
content were heard on every corner and in
almost every household. Relatives of the
unfortunate victims were in the widest
agony Of despair. Several we're seized with
commissions. Fannie Sarver, sister ofthe two
Sarver brothers, was FRUSTRATED with vio-
lent fits, and it was feared she would die.
Mrs. kiveler, the aged mother of the
three Kiveler brothers, was at death'sdoor
from weakness from the shock, and many
relatives and friends of the victims were
completely FRUSTRATED. The officials in
charge Of the ~rescuing expedition wereforced
to abandon all work by irresistible conclu-
sions. The investigations show that sand
and rOCk and culm had fallen in to
such an extent that the mine in
which the imprisoned men are is now
filled to the roof, and that the men are
dead and beyond human help. A cave.
in took place during the night, which was
Of very large proportions, and the real ex-
tent OF the damage can hardly be estimated,
but it is great. Thefall brought whit vol
umes OF black damp and s%ulphuruns gases,
which filled the mine and put a stop to all
work. 1t has been learned that the
bodies OF the victims cannot be
recovered for at least O. month, and
since this news has been spread throughout
the mining region the most intense excite
ment prevails. Every effort will now be
made to work in toward the men from the
slope. The clearing up OF the gangways
will be pushed as rapidly as possible. 1t
IS thought that the work win be long and
tedious, as there are about 5000 feet OF
gangway also filled up, and said to be
packed to the roof.

The Decision About Mortgaging Home
steads.

steads.
In the case OF Webster a~gaingt Bowman
ct al, in the United States court, at St.
Paul Judge Nelson recently denied a motion,
and in doing so enunCiated a very impOr-
tant principle, towit: The title to a home
stead remains exclusively with the
government until the final patent to
the homesteader is given, and no mort.
gage upon it is valid. 1t is understood
that there are a good many hOmesteads in
Minnesota which have been mortgaged
while the homesteader had rot fulfilled all
the conditions of ownership, and that a
large ndmber OF mortgages nave been fore
closed; and this decision, if subsequently
sustained, would render all those fore
closures and sales under them invalid. B.
H. Bennett OF WOrthington writes making
the following inquiries:
First-Was the date of the mortgage
prior to the receivers receipt?
Second-How was the receivers receipt
obtained-that is, did the homesteader
commute by the payment of money, or did
he get it by virtue OF servingin the army?
To these inquiries Samuel Appleton, at
torney for the plaintiff, makes the following
replies:
The mortgage was dated and money
loaned on the day OF the
entry OF the homestead. The final
receipt was not received until some
time after the mortgage was given,
and the homesteader was credited
on his five years by the length OF time he
served in the army. The mortgage was
held void, because at the time it was given
the land belonged to the government, and
not to the homesteader until he received
his final certificate.
