JOSIE MANSFIELD DEAD.-Last Sunday week a
small funeral procession wendell ita way along the
road leading from Delanco, N. j. to Monument
Cemetery. The funeral was that of Josie Mans
fe,d. WIN figured prominently in the Fisk-Stokes
tragedy in New York in 1871. Immediately af-
ter the death of Fisk she went to Paris: After
the excitement caused by that event had passed
away she returned to this country, selecting an
unpretentious homo in the town of Defiance
where she had since led secluded life. Her
death and burial are surrounded somewhat in
mystery. Both the burial permit and physicians
certificate of death are registered as Josie Will
liams." There were only four five persons at
the funeral, and they were unknown in that part
of the State The sexton was generously paid for
his part of the work, all the secrecy possible be-
ing the only condition enjoined.
Tho New York papers of to day deny the cor
1ectness of the above and say that Miss Mansfield

A WOMAN IN FLAMEs-A number of persons
who were in Leonard street. near tho Tombs, New
York half an hour before noon Saturday were
excited By seeing e woman raise third-story
window of tenement house on Leonard street
and throw herself to tho sidewalk, ffty feet below.
Her dress was on fro, and she was wrapped in
flames from head to foot when she fell to the
street. Her skull was fractured by the fall aad
portions of her body were burned almost to 4
crisp. The woman was Mrs. Alice Mccarthy, a
widow of middle age, who had locked herself in
her rooms and was preparing to get dinner for
herself and her sons when she set fire to her
clothes An oil can near tho kitchen stove ex-
planned how the accident had occurred. The fire
WAS low and she had tried to hasten it by pouring
kerosene oil on the Goals. There had been an ex-
posion which set fire to the room and to her
dress. In her pain and fright she first tried to
get ont of door. but found it locked and forgot
that she had locked it. Then she rushed to tho
window crazed with fear, to fling herself GU. in
tho hope of getting help.

IMMIGRANTS ARE arriving in this country
at the rate ofnearly million year. Ev-
cry one of them either is or will be com
petitor of American laborers, and American
manufacturers employ them when they are
willing to accept lower wages than native
laborers demand In other words, the
American manufacturer buys his labor in
the cheapest market. Why then should he
object to the American consumer being
allowed a similar privilege-that of buying
the necessaries of life where they can be
bought cheapest?

the effect that the net surplus in the Treas

"There is not monarchical government
In the world, however absolute its form, or
however arbitrary its power, that would

This has long been known ns the robber

The Two Vessels at Quarantine.

There are two vessels direct from Havana
at our quarantine station waiting for per-
mission to come to the city. There is no
quarantine regulation fixing the time of
their detention. The health authorities
have full power in the matter of granting
them permission to come up the river.
In view of the epidemic in Florida, pub
lie sentiment in this city appears to be
against permitting them TO CONS here be-
fore Nov. l. They may be entirely
free from any infection, but it is thought
that no risk ought to be taken.
There is a strong sentiment in Philadel-
phia against permitting the schooner Adele
Thackara, which arrived off the Delaware
breakwater a few days ago from Havana.
with yellow fever on board, coming
to that city before cold weather. Admiral
Luce, of the navy, speaking of that schooner
the other day, said: "This talk about killing
the microbes of yellow fever by dsinfectipg
a vessel hailIng from a fever-stricken port
does not amount to much. | have been in
ports where the fever has ragged, aud know
that the only safe plan is to freeze it out.
This is to anchor the vessel in an isolated
place and keep 1t isolated, without breaking
the cargo, until good frost puts in an APP
pearance. Then, and not till then, is it safe.
This is the plan adopted by the United
States navy in the case of men-of-war ar
irving at home ports with the fever aboard,
and is the only effective way. 1t would be
an outrage to allow the schooner Adele
Thackara, now lying at the Breakwater, to
come up the river, and tho health authori-
ties should see that she is detained ia quar-
antine until the frost arrives"
1t is not yet known what course will be
pursued with regard to the Adele Thacklra
by the Philadelphia authorities. 1t would
not be surprising, however, if the advice of
Admiral Luce were taken. A great COM
nercial city has too much at stake to take
any such risk as that involved in permitting
an infected vessel to come to her wharve,
as long as there is danger of the vessel intro
ducing an infectious disease among her peo-
pie and it is impossible to say with absolute
certainty that vessel, which has not had
yellow fever on board, but which is only a
few weeks out from an infected port, is not
infected
