An English shipper sued for damage done to a cargo by water, which had ceme into the ship through 8 hole gnawed by rats. At the trial Lord Justice Lopes decided in ia vor of the defendants on the ground that the injury was due to ''perils of the sea- for which the shipowner is not liable. 'The damage was caused, /" he said, ''by the com ing in of the sea water and not the gnaw ing by the rats" This ruling is now re- versed by the Court of Appeals, which holds that the real cause of the damage was the rats, for which the shipowner was liable. "A rat," said Lord Justice Bowen, "and all the direct or indirect mischief a rat does, is a peril of the ship and not a peril of the sea. Rats can be kept out of ship, and when they are found there the fact indi- cates defects in the ship or want of precau- ton on the part of the owner"

 The Roman Catholic clergymen of Worces- ter, Massachusetts, are said to be divided to the advisability of following implicitly the lead of the last Baltimore plenary coun- oil in it's condemnation of church fairs. Some of the pastors have adopted system of assessments on their parishioners, which they hold is far more desirable, from the fact that such course gives every person a proprietary interest in the church and all its affairs, while under the old system the bur den of the support tell upon the few, for the reason that many who were so disposed would shirk their share of the burden, while they would still continue to receive the ben efits of the church.

Tho EnIant Terrible.

An cnfant terrible was travelling to
Boston the other day via the Cam
bridge horse car, and in company with
his fond mamma and q number of other
people bound in the same direction.
After scanning the scene for some time,
his eagle eye lighted on an engaging
pictorial advertisement just above
his head. 1t represented, let US
say, the luscious female form encom-
passed by marvellous pair of corsets,
and the legend written beneath that
purchasers of the same could return
the article after Is days trial, If not
perfectly satisfactory. Finally, in the
silence of the car, rose the piping voice
of this terrible child: "Say, mamma!
DO you wear double x. Y. Il. cor
setsp"
mo, no! Hush!'
mo. l shan't 'hush.' Why don't
you wear those corsets?''
Hush! !" In distracted tones from

A Favored Man:

Besides the Emperor and Prince Bis
marck, there is in Berlin a man whose
position is for the time being unique.
He is a nearly blind old man, gentle to
speak to, Of great kindliness, hospita-
bic and generous; the owner Of immense
wealth, and Jew. His name il Ble-
ichroeder, or rather Won Bleichroeder,
and he is held in equal favor by the
monarch and the chancellor. Whatev-
er may have been the obscure origin of
the family, it has for . considerable
time produced bankers and financiers,
and the present representative had not,
up to the epoch of the Franco German
war, achieved any furher notoriety than
the progressive accumulation of money
and determination to struggle with
the persistent antagonism of the Ger
man Christian. which constant propin-
quity seems to intensity. When the
war assumed it's gigantic proportions
Mr.. Bleichroeder went to the king and
to Bismark and placed the whole of his
fortune in their hands, to spend like
water for the veal of the Fatherland,
adding that he would stand and fall
with its destinies.

The death of John Kelly. which occurred
at New York, June LIST, removes . man
who has occupied national position in
politics for nearly . quarter Of q century.
Mr.. Kelly suffered from no special disease
but from general failing Of nerve force
and vitality. During his illness, which
covered q year and q half he had grown
very gray and his weight had fallen of
more than sixty pounds. Tho day before
his death he was up and partly dressed, and
with aid walked about the room, and re-
ceived the sacrament from Rev. Father
Aeagher. At ton O'Clock he returned to
his bed never to leave it alive. At two
O'Clock Tuesday his wife approached the
bed and asked ''Do you know me, dearl"
eyes, }" was the reply, and it was the last
word he spoke.
Mr.. Kelly's career was remarkable and
full of interest and he rose to wealth and
great political influence through the force
Of will and indomitable perseverance. His
habits Of work, were extraordinary and
when duties and campaigns pressed upon
him he would often sleep but two hours
out Of twenty-four. His leadership Of
Tammany Hall demonstrated that he was
matchless organizer, and no man In tho
country's history has ever commanded 80
head of that organization. His first Office,
alderman Of the 18th ward, he received in
1853, and afterwards served In congress
two terms, being elected the last time in
1855. Afterwards he was appointed Con-
troller by Mayor Wickham, and twice
elected to the Office OF sheriff.
Mr.. Kelly's parents emigrated from Gal
way county, Ireland, in 1916, and he was
born at New York in 1922. His father died
in 1880 and his mother in 1842 His educa-
tional advantages were limited to attend
ing pal ochial school and an evening pub
lie school where he obtained the rudiments
of an English education. At the age Of
thirteen his mother apprenticed him to tho
trade Of CRATE setter and soap stone cut
ter, and from this he gravitated to the av-
ocation Of mason and builder. At the ago
of "a he engaged In business for himself,
aud made some money which he 80
shrewdly invested that it was the founda-
tion of handsome fortune In later years.
Though he had some accumulation from Of
6ce-holding, he often said that If he had held
aloof from politics he would havJ been bet
tor of in q financial sense.
His first wife, Ann Mc1llhargy, died in
1868, and by 1872 their three children had
followed. In 1875 he m married Miss Teresa
Mullin, a niece of Cardinal McClosky,
whom he leaves with two children, Joseph
inc, aged and John aged years.
