The erection of great building like
this Is TO be, with all the modern i'm

hundred thousand dollars, is not a thing TO

responsibility will fall upon the commits

good deal to do with it, and the Republi.

Sleeping with a Room Full Of Gas.

A. w. Swartz, about % years of age, farmer
and dealer in agricultural Implements at
Sinking Spring, went TO Reading Thursday
evening on business and registered at the
Keystone house. About II o'clock he retired
for the night The occupant of the next room
heard groans and called the porter TO find the
full OF illuminated ,gas, and the odor was
very strong. The door and window were
Immediately thrown wide open, so as TO al
low the gas TO escape .and admit fresh air.
Mr.. Swartz lay in the bed in an unconscious
condition continuing to moan and snore
loudly some Is minutes longer before he
could be aroused,

WE knew it was coming and we had a sus-
picion that Senator Logan would be its
mouthpiece This latter misfit statesman
declares that "all the present trouble In the
business of the country and all the dissatis-
faction among the laboring classes were di-
rectly traceable to the fact that the Demo-
cratic party controlled the reins of the gov
eminent" The senator does not use the full
wealth of his ammunition. There were
some disastrous riots in Belgium and earth
quake shocks in the Sandwich islands that
might have been charged to baleful Demo-
cratic influences.

a srECIMEN PAaE FROM LOGAN.
The tntamed Warrior Gives Free Play
Hi- wild Western Imaeiuatiop

Ills wild Western Imas sination.
In his new book, which the publishers ex-
peCt to have ready about the Goth of this
month, Senator Logan deals with what he
calls The Great Conspiracy" of the South
ern rebellion, without regard TO syntax or the
feelings of hts foes. 1t is thus he draws upon
his Imagination for an account of Lincoln's
first night in the White House
How that great, and Just, and kindly brain,
In the dim shadows of that awful first night
at the White House, must have searched up
and down and along the labyrint oi history
and "Corridors of time" eyerywhe in the
past, for any analogy or excuse tor the mad
ness otths secession moN emeut-and searched
in vain.
With his grand and abounding faith in
God, how Abraham Lincoln must have
stormed the very gates of heaven that night
with prayer that he might be the means of
securing peace and union to his beloved but
distracted country! How his great heart
must have been raCked with the alterations
of hope and foreboding-of trustfulness and
Doubt Auxiously he must have looked
for the light of the morrow that he might
gather from the press the manner In which
his inaugural had been received. Not that
he feared the North--but the South how
would the wayward, willful, passionate
South receive his protierd olive branchT
Surely, surely--thus ran his though is
when the brave and gallant and generous
| sage Of peace and goodwill they must see the
| suicidal folly Of their course! Surely their
| hearts must be touched and the mists OF pre-
iudiCe dissolved, 80 that reason would re-
| sumo her sway, and reconciliation follow
! 4 little more time for reflection would YET
| make all things right The young men o.
| the South and Southern leaders false appeals
| must soon return tn reason. The prairie fir,
| is terrible while IL sweeps along, but il sooI
| burns out When the young men face tn,
emblem of their nations glory-the flag o
| the land of their birth--fheH will come tn,
reaction, and their false leaders will be hurlec
| from place aud power and all will again b,
| right \ ga, when il comes to firing on til,
| old, old flag, they will not, caunot do IL
| Between the compromise within their reach
and such sacrilege rs this they cannot waye
| long.
SO, doubtless, all the long night, whether
waking or sleeping the mind OF this true
! hearted son OF the West, throbbed with tn,
| mighty weight of the problem entrusted L
| him for solution, and the vast responsibilities
| which he had iust assumed toward his fellow
| men, his nation, aud his God. And when
at last, the long lean frame was thrown upoI
the couch, and ''tired natures sweet re
storer" held him briefly IN her arms, tn
smile OF hopefulness on the wan cheek tolC
that, despite all the terrible difficulties OF tn
situation, the sleeper was sustained by
strong and cheerful belief in the Providenc
of God, the patriotism of the people, an,
the efficacy OF his inaugural peace-cfiering Z
the South.

FRIDAY was q great day for bay-windows.
Mayor Smith, of Philadelphia, vetoed the
bay-window ordinance which proposed to
absolutely prohibit the erection OF bay-win-
dows on the fronts of buildings erected on
the building line, and Robert Garrett, of the
Baltimore 4 Ohio railroad company, was
given permission to retain the bay window
in the front of his palatial Baltimore resi-
dence, despite the objections of his wealthy
next door neighbor.
