A Timely warming to Bachelors.

The women have always SAID that for
neglectIng to take up their share of society
burdens, the bachelors, as a rule, got their
full punishment even in this world. But
the iDgle-blessedness fellows have shrugged
their shoulders and concluded that they
could stand it; women were creatures of i'm
pulse and their prejudices were apt 10 be all
wrong. But it is said that figures do not lie,
and even these appear to be against the
bachelor.
An esteemed London contemporary has
Just published statistics showing that of a
given 400, 900 bachelors between twenty and
twenty-five there are annually about 100
deaths, whereas out of 400, 900 married men
of similar age the annual deaths are only
coo. Again, between the ages of thirty and
and thirty-five, 800 bachelors die and only
500 married men TO the 100000. So, if self
preservation is the first law of nature, the
bachelors had better proceed to make hay
while the sun shines
There is, too, in these Statistics beautiful,
n.undeserved, compliment to the angel min
istries OF married women. 1t is to be feared
that thousands of men go along through
their lives only half knowing or admitting
that their wives are keeping them out Of un-
timely graves az the rate of 500 10 l, 200.
And with these figures to go on at the dawn
ing OF new year, there is no telling how
many bachelors and married men, too, may
be happy by the 1st OF January, 1887.

A easily FIND.

PORTLAND, Ore, March s.-J. NJ. Coleman
and Wilbur Patton, prominent citizens OF
Seattle, disappeared about a month ago, and
were believed u have been murdered. The
fact that Coleman was foreman of the Grand
Jury that indicted those who were arrested
on a charge OF having participated in the
recent riot at Seattle and who also had shot
and killed several Cinnamon at the New
Castle Mines, lent additional interest to the
affair Search was made Tor the men for days
without success. Yesterday the bodies of
both were found in Lake Washington, near
Seattle. There IS every indication that Cole
man and Patton we're first shot dead and the
bodies then cast into the water. The identity
OF the assassns rema:ns profound mystery
despite the efforts OF the detectives.

EUROPE.
The Queen of Portugal is reputed the best
dressed lady in Europe. Her original sty e
Of beauty-all Queens are beautiful-associ-
ated with her exquisite taste and her enjoy
ment of abundant means to crafty her well
skilled choice of colors, 1T and material, give
her supremacy in the realm of dress and
adoTnment. As Queen of Fashion her rank
is even higher than that of Queen of Portu-
gal. little kingdom with not much 10 boast
Of IN these degenerate days.
But the lineage of the distinguished lady
who shares the hOnors of royalty with King
Luis i. is of the highest and gives her fam
lily relations with some of the prou1est
relgning houses of Europe. Queen Pia is
the youngest daughter of the late King Wit
torio Emanuele of Italy, and brother, of
course, of King Umber.o |. she was born
October 16 1S47, and was married October q,
1862, before she was fifteen years old, TO King
Luis. who had succeeded his brother Pedro
v, less than year before that time Her
husband is nine years older than she.
The royal couple have two children, both
boys. One of them, Prince Carlos, Duke OF
Braganza, was born September %. 1868; and
the other, Prince Alfonso, Duke of Oporto,
on July 81, 1865.
Lady readers will agree with US that the
Queen is much better looking than might be
supposed from the fact of her being a
daughter of the first King of United Italy,
whose personal ugliness was proverbial.

THE FIRE RECORD.
Big Blaze in Jersey City-SeveraI Baildings
Burned in Pulaski, n. Y.

New York, March S.-When the flames on
the Monarch Line dock were discovered, at
, O'Clock this morning, all the fremen in
to the scene. 1t soon became evident that
they could not handle the fire, so assistance
was asked for from this city. The large
iron steamer Egyptian Monarch was on fire
before the tugs could get her from the burn
ing dock. The flames burned so furiously
that the freRen had no chance of subduing
them. The heat, too, was so intense that
the workers could get nowhere near her, and
after her masts and spars were consumed the
flames made their way to her cabins first,
then to her hold, where they caught what
was there of her cargo, and in short while
she was a raging furnace of flame, that so
heated her sides TO white heat and made
her hull at the water line throw off clouds
Of steam caused from the heat within; There o
will be a loss on the ship of about 100000,
and later estimates place the loss
on the freight, which is total, at
about S25OOOO. The Superintendent of the
Monarch Line docks said that just before the
fire started, an explosion was heard and 1T
was his opinion that the shock was among
the freight that had been discharged from
have been by dynamite or an internal ma
chine which the Superintendent says was
possibly placed among the freight.
While the steamer was lying at her dock
in London previous to sailing for this coun-
try, the Lydian Monarch also took fire, but
was hauled out INTO the stream before much
damage was done. The milk depot of the
Erie Road was also destroyed, loss OF 49,
600 to that company. The Monarch Line
docks were entirely consumed. The total
loss is now estimated at 100000.
The damage to the steamer Egyptian Mon
arch is now found to be not as great as was
at first supposed. The agents OF the Mon
arch Line now place the damage To that YES
sci at $4,000 and to her cargo at $4,000.
This will reduce the total loss by fire to
about 100000.
The agents of the Monarch line make the
following statement: THE outward cargo
of the Egyptian Monarch was not injured by
the fire, and she will sail tomorrow. He in
ward cargo that remained on the dock was
totally destroyed. The Lydian Monarch's
cargo was uninjured. The outward business
on the line is being transacted as usual"
