the most enthusiastic cheering. His
speech was u model in every respect
Its merit as literary production, the
sentiments of patriotism which animal.
ed it, the power and cloqucnce with
which 1t was delivered, captivated the
audience, and we'll sustained Gov. Hart'e
reputation as one OF the best political
speakers.
After the applause had subsidized at
the conclusion Of the speech, Mr.. @. s.
Bell arose and called for three cheers for
Harrison and Morton, which were given
with vim.
The audience then dispersed, every
member feeling that the cause of Re-
publicanism had received grand boom,
and that with the proper effort the elec-
ton Of Harrison and Morton in Novem.
ber was assured. ~
.Kelly's solo caught the crowd.
The American flag is In hoe signo vinces.
The Lincoln Club Drum Corps can't
be beat.
1t was lively forerunner OF rousing
campaign.
Everybody says that Gov. Hart is the
best political speaker in Ohio.
The ladies who assisted 80 kindly in
decorating have the thanks of the com.
mittee.
The Glee Club, under the leadership
of Judge Kelly and Esquire Maddox, is
dandy.
One Of the most impressive things
about the meeting was the large number
of veteran Republicans present.
The greatest enthusiasm of the even.
ing was evoked by Gov. Hart's compar-
ison of the red bandana and the Ameri.
can flag.
One Of the young ladies suggested the
following campaign motto: "Ben. and
Levi will get there Eli" It is a good
one, and should be adopted.
Judge Thompson knows how to rouse
the enthusiasm Of the boys. An occa.
sion like that Of Saturday night brings
out all his old-time fire and eloquence.
The Lincoln Club will erect perma-
nent platform in the Court House yard,
to be used during the campaign. The
last meeting to be addressed from it will
be the jollification meeting over the
election OF Harrison and Morton.
Mr.. Cyrus Newly was not extravagant
in his claim that the people of the U. s.
owed Ben Harrison three years and
eleven months of the Presidency. He
also comforted his party by showing
that it was not "Tippecanoe and Tyler,
too" at this election.
The signs are that we will have one OF
the best campaign Glee Clubs in the
State. The natural ability of the singers
combined with the fine chorus training
which many of them received last win.
ter under Prof. Mckenzie, of the Con-
servatory, will enable them to render
the stirring campaign songs most effect
lively.
@. S. Bell is himself q large manufac-
turer and employs many hands in his
foundry. These men receive on an av-
erage from two to three times as much
in wages as is paid to the same class of
labor in Europe. At the same time the
manufacturer is enabled to make a fair
profit. Mr.. Bell recognizes that Demo.
cratic free trade means destruction OF his
business, or a reduction Of the wages of
his workmen to the European standard.
THAT'S why he is enthusiastic for Harri.
son and Morton.

Deceptions of the Senses
From the American Analyst.


The senses are subject to illusions IN
proportion to the remOteness OF the
information that they give from the
immediate necessities of the organism.
Touch, the most immediate and least
inferential of the senses, is least subject
TO Illusions; while sight is so very much
SO that the blind often SAT- they have an
advantage over the seeing IN being free
from Fisiial illusions. The illusions Of
bodily motion are much nearer to those
of touch than to those of slgnt, and yet
thev can under certain conditions be
induced through visual impressions.
OF this the writer has recently bad two
interesting examples. He was stand
ing upon the floor of railroad station,
the boards OF which were laid with a
considerable open space between them,
and the shadow of an electric light was
moving up and down by the swinging of
the light in the wind. Looking at the
floor it seemed as though the shadow
were stationary and the floor boards
moving, From this it followed that the
person on it was moving too, and the
writer distinctly felt the swinging sen
sdtion; in fact, his attention was called
to the phenomena by this feeling of mo-
ton. The other observation was as fol-
lows: While riding in the cars and
looking out of the window the trees and
all are seen to move in the opposite di-
rection. If. now, one looks in a mir
ror so situated that it reflects the pass
ing landscape. which, however, must
not be visible except in the mirror, one
has the illusion of moving in the oppo-
site to the real direction of motion, ow-
ing to the reversal of the image in the
glass. In both these cases an immedl-
ate bodily sensation is induced by q
more or less unconscious inference
thrnuph visual sensatInns.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, May 17.-Mrs. BEEN,
widow of the late Gen. BEEN, whose
mysterious death is still the cause of
much sensational gossip, viii appeal TO
the court for permission to change her
name. She intends to take her middle
name, Stoughton, which is the name of
her grandparents, and will be known ae
Lulu Stoughton. Mrs. BEEN says she
will probably 10y aside her mourning
costume in a few days, and pc to New
York TO seek employment in ths

def Oswald Ottendorfer, who was
an old friend OF hers. From present
indications there will not be a very
large amount of money realized from
the estate. One insurance policy for
$4,000 has expired. because the pte1ni-
uttIs were not paid up, and the other
has been hypothecated to F. G. Hinck-
ley, of Fort Morgan, Col, for 81. 900, and
the policy is now in his possession.
The investigation into Gen. Beem's
mysterious death is still progressing at
Stanton, Neb., and the impfession is
daily growing stronger that ecu"

THE IRISH AND THE POPE.
\ Big Mass Meeting in Phoenix Park on
SUNDAY.

A Dublin dispatch Of the 10th says;
Six thousand people assembled in
Phoenix lark to day to take action on
the resolution adopted by the Irish
Catholic members of Parliament with
reference to the recent papal rescript.
There were no priests present. Lord
Mayor Sexton presided, and John Dill
lon, VIM. O. 'Brien and other Parnelites
made speeches. The Emanifesto of the
Irish members was endorsed by
acclamation. The crowd dispersed
in an orderly manner. Mr.. Dillon de-
MED that the rescript was only moral
doctrine. He said that the Vatican
would treat no other country in Europe
in the same way. The Irish would
neither submit nor bow to Rome; they
would show the world that they were
able to discern between the spiritual
and political domains. Mr. 0'Bren
said the present ordeal was worse than
twenty years of Balfourian coercion.
The Irish had enough without taking
blows from hands from which they least
deserved them. 1t was heart-breaking
to think that such a rescript in the
name of Rome should be thrown into
the teeth of the Irish people. A cour-
ageous, respectful, firm protest was nee

lided with freight train near Fountain,
this morning, at & o'clock. car cf
powder in the freight exploded, COM
pletely wrecking both trains and in
stantly killing three people and wounding
many more.
Train z, known as the Thunderbolt,
arrived at Fountain at 2:4l A. NJ, and
had only been standing few minutes,
when caboose and sUme cars, the
brakes of which had got loose in some
way, ran down from side track and
struck the train with terrific force. One
car was loaded with naphtha which ex-
ploded, throwing the oil over every
thing and setting the train on fire.
The train men showed the uninjured
cars back from the wreck and were try
ing to save the depot, when il was dis
covered that two cars were standing on
the main track that were not wrecked
The nearest one was burning and was
tagged powder. Shortly afterward the
car exploded, completely demolishng

A RIVER OF FIRE,
CONGREGATIONS in Oil City Pa, Fed b,
Streams of Petroleum.


Streams of Petroleum.
On Cry, Pa, May 1.-THE fire re-
sulting from a 20,000-gallon oil tank
being struck by lightning Is now be-
lieyed to be under control. The great
overflow of OIL watched for with so
much terror, occurred shortly before
2 O'Clock this morning. The tank vom-
tied its flames and contents and huge
islands of burning oil, some of them 100
feet IN diameter, tloated down the
creek. The booms proved useless and
the fierce mass of fire swept
on, burning several dwellings, the
Western New York q Pennsylvania
Railroad bridge two miles below and q
large barrel factory. The loss is estl-
mated at $250, 900 There was very lit
tie sleer in the city last night, as it was
feared the town would be destroyed.
All night mothers with babes III their
arms, young girls with shawls thrown
over their heads, frightened children
and grave men silently watched the on
ward march of the flames. Little was
said. but much was feared.
The fire has burned itself out. and all
danger has spassed. The first reports
were greatly exaggerated and the loss
viii not exceed 100000. The oil de-
stroyed is of the quality on which
a premium of Is to 20 cents per
barrel is paid, making it worth that
much more than the market quotation.
In addition to the two tanks, wooden
railroad bridge across the creek, owned
by the Western New York x Pennsyl-
vania Railroad, and the barrel works
were destroyed
Tie total loss is less than $50, 600.

CHINESE SHUT OUT.
The Assembly of New South Wales Passes
Severe Restriction Act.

dispatch of the 18th from Sydney,

mier, in an impassioned speech, intro
duced in the colonial assembly bill to
restrict Chinese immigration. All
standing orders were suspended with
out word of dissent, and at 7 O'Clock
this morning amid loud cheers, the bill
passed the third reading with only verb
al amendments. The bill, which ope-
rates from May l and indemnifies the
government for past acts, provides the
limitation for Chinamen; raises
the poll tax from so to e100 and
fixes the penalty for an evasion
of the laws at from el0 to $50. China
men will be permitted to trade in de-
fined areas, but the number in each of
the districts must not exceed five. The
bill also imposes restrictions as to resi-
dence and trading. Travelling Chinese
with passports will not be allowed to en-
gage in mining operations, except by
permission by the government. The
bill does not affect Chinese who are
British subjects. The Chinese must re-
port and take out an initial license
which shall cost 10 shillings, and the
governor in council is empowered to
make regulations relative thereto. All
Chinese viii be preserved in their
rights. The police have strict orders TO

issue consols to the amount of

planned that the dividends on Suez
canal shares would be ultimately used
to wipe out the loan. OF the amount
asked 5000 would be expended at
Malta, Gibraltar and other military sta
tions, which would be made safe against

with the best modern artillery. For the
defense of mercantile ports the garri-
sons of volunteer artillery would be in
creased and fresh works be constructed.
The cost of the heavy guns for these
would be provided from the sum asked,
while the cost of navy guns and light
guns would fall on the usual estimates.

Obedience to the Law.

Obedience to the Law.
A st. Louis dispatch of the Goth says.
To-day was the first real test of the Sun
day closing law and ST. Louis was dry to
all lntents and purposes. There were
about forty arrests for violation, and the
saloons were closed at once, except in a
few places where the proprietors in
sisted on defying the police. The result
Of this was the arrest on a second and in
some cases on third charge. In each
case the officers kept a close watch on
such cases and as soon as the doots were
reopened the proprietors were again ar
rested. The brewers and saloon
keepers organization notified the
liquor dealers that it would be wise
to comply with the laws as the state
supreme court had decided it applied
IN all its force to st. Louis. A number
of drinking clubs were formed yester-
day and Concordia Garden was made
the headquarters of several, and a store
of liquor was purchased for the n yes
terdav. A few persons who failed to
become members yesterday were sworn
in to-day and were furnished liquor by
the proprietor, whereupon he was at
once arrested. His place, however.
was not closed against the members OF
the club. Many people went to East st.

and numerous picnics strolled to the

Groundless Superstitions.


There are thousands who believe it Is
healthy to rise up early; whereas 1t Is
hygienic crime for a man to get up be-
fore he wants to- The des re to sleep
in the morning is one of natures en-
phatic intimations that more time Is
needed lor repairs. For a man to 90 to
work insa sleepy semi-comatose condi-
ton, is imply gradual suicide. There
is another popular delusion that man
should stop eating while he is yet hun
gry. He might as well stop breathing
before his lungs are filled. Hunger Is
the barometer that tells the state OF the
stomach. A man is never hungry un-
less he ought to eat. There Is another
delusion that night air is unhealthy-as
if any one could get anything but night
air at night. There is really no air so
unhealthy as day air bottled up and
kept until night. There has been no
way discovered for preserving air like
huckleberries by boftling.
