Turns Back the Hand of Progress.

The refusal of the Senate to give
our manufacturers aud our la or tho
benefit of the free list of raw materia-
Is, Is simply monstrous assault upon
American capital, American labor and
American consumers. 1t is in detian-
ce of the earnest teachings of Republi-
can Presidents Grant, Arthur and
q rfield, and is at war with every
principle OF justice to labor and just
ice to consumers. IL is turning back
wards the hands of progress into the
darkness of Chinese walled theories,
and is a fearful confession that there
can be no relief to either capital or la.
Dor without an imperious demand
from the people in the coming elec.
ton. 1t is an appalling declaration
that the highest war taxes on the ne
cessaries of business and of life shall be
continued indefinitely, and that high
taxes and low wages shall be the only
hope of American workingmen. 1t is
the policy of madness; the policy of
expressing the many for the benefit OF
the few, and it is the most flagrant as
sault that was ever made upon the
capital, labor and consumers since the
formation of the RI public. 1t is mean
partisan juggleIy with taxation; moth
ing more, nothing less.-Philadel

ANOTHER TERRIBLE RAILROAD CATAs-
TRoPHE.
MAUcH CHUNK, Pa, Oct. 16.-A
wreck occurred or the Pottsville divi-
sion of the Lehigh Valley railroad near
Tamarend about o'clock this morning
between the Lehigh gravel train and q
Pennsylvania railroad fast freight.
The Asgmsn did not get back far
enough to sign i the FREIGHT which
struck the caboose of the gravel train,
the latter containing batch of Hun
garian laborors, six of whom were in
stantly killed, twenty six were injur-
ed, two of them dying while being
carried to the hospital The gravel
train was backing on siding when
the freight train approached at a high
rate OF speed and went crashing into
the cars ahead.
The news of the wreck was imme-
diately telegraphed to the railroad Off
GERS who arrived in short time and
did all iu their power to make it COM
Portable for the suffering ones. Sew
eral physicians were summoned. The
injured were removed to the Miners
hospital at Ashland, and as they were
all Hungarians, with two exceptions,
no names could be secured. The De-
putty coroner Of Tamareud empannel-
led jury and testimony will be taken
tomorrow. The killed and injured
men were all on the gravel train with
the exception of the brakemen of the
Pennsylvania train, who was killed on
his own train. So far az is known the
responsibility rests upon the shoulders
of the hagman who failed to flag the
freight in time to prevent the acci-
dent.

Proper Bible Wine.

Alfred Speer, who has large vine
yards near Passaic, N. j., is extensive
ly engaged in preserving Unfermented
Grape Juice from the Oporto Grapes
and supplies it to many religious So
cieties for communion purposes. The
following is from DR.. John Ellis, who
has written several works on Bible
wine: "The writer obtained from Mr..
Speer a bottle of his Unfermented
Wine and found it very pleasant and
nutritious wine. A chemist put a
portion of this wine into a retort and
distilled and condensed about one
third of the contents of the retort.
The distilled had neither the smell nor
the taste of alcohol, nor did chemical
terts indicate any trace of alcohol

Visitors to Paris will hencetorth
have a place to visit, little known to
the mass of tourists hitherto. This is
the Museum of the History of Paris,
in the Hotel Carnavalet. described and
illustrated IN HARPER's MAGAZINE for
November, by Theodore Child.
There, it seems, may be seen thous-
ands of curious relics illustrating the
history and the life of the Parisians-
from the medals and coins of yester-
day and to-day back to the Gallo-I.o-
man period and the darkness that pre-
ceded it, The explanation of the
coat of orms of the city of Paris, the
reason for the adoption of the tricolor-
ed flag of the Republic, the relation of
Benjamin Franklin TO the expression
ca ira Of the Revolutionists, and
many other points of singular int
are brought out by Mr.. Child. Much
history is wrought INTO the texture of
the article, which will attract the
careful student as well as those who
merely live to read about curious
things. The excellence of the illustra-
tions is manifest At glance.

A Miniature Flood.

Last evening about o'clock heavy
shower visited this locality which de-
veloped into food short distance
north of town. (Some think another
old cloud bursted.) About 5 o'clock q
food of water came down through the
streets of town, and for about an hour
a torrent swept down Railroad Street
with great velocity. The rain was ac-
companied by flashes of vivid lightning
and peals of heavy thunder very unusu-
al in this country.

Writer and Reader.

When the discovery is ono made that,
even apart from any merit of ones own,
there is an audience provided in advance
by the energy Of publishers and editor,
the sense of responsibility becomes very
great, and with it the feeling that per-
haps, even if what u writes is not very
good or important, it may assume a GER
tain merit through reaching some one
who needs just that word. A clever
woman once said that an orator must
speak with much more confidence to an
audience of five thousand than to n of
a hundred, because among the hundred
there might be no M who cared for the
particular thing he was saying, whereas
among the larger multitude there would
probably be at least one. Thvs the
writer for any journal that c%irculates by
the hundred thousand may feel that there
is a reader always awaiting him some
where, and who knows but what he says
may fit the precise need of that one?
Now, to have one reader each week Is
really a great thing when we consider
how much some stray scrap in a news
paper, perhaps not in itself especially
wise, has occasionally influenced OF own
lives. Nothing encouraged me more to
undertake these papers than a remark Of
my friend, Mr.. James Parton, who told
me that the one part Of his literary life
of whose usefulness he felt absolutely
certain was the series Of papers that he
contributed weekly during many years
to The New York Ledger. He rarely
heard from them again, he said-lt
seemed a good deal as if they had been
written and thrown into tho sea-yet it
was on them that he relied to satisfy him
self that he had been of some real and
permanent use to somebody, in his long
career as q writer.-''T. W. H." in Har-
per's Bazaar.
