Action OF the Irish National League
EnRrossed Resolutions.


Engrossed Resolutions.
NEw YoRR, Dec. 3l.-The New York
municipal council Of the Irish National
leagues intend soon to present 10 Mrs
Henry Ward Beecher set of resolutions
expressing the sympathy and regret OF the
society for the death OF her husband and
its respect for his memory. These rcsolu-
tions are drawn up on heavy parchment,
fastened In the form OF banner upon d
stick Of dark colored wood, either end be-
ing mounted with knobs of brass. When
unrolled II presents an effective appear
ance with the white silver fringe at the top
and bottom Of the l5xlS inch sheet. The
text OF the resolutions Is written In elab-
orate and delicately tinted lettering, and
scrool work Of intricate design fills each
OF the four corners, while at the head OF
the whole testimonial a large eagle with
spreading wings bears In It's beak wreath
surrounding the letter Il and an inverted
torch. In its talons IL holds the Irish
and American flags draped with Grape.
Above the eagle is the word Gree
DOM" and below IL in grace.
full scroll Is the phrase, ole Lived Not for
an Age, but for All Time" The lettering
is admirably done in different colored inks,
which produce, 30 well are they chosen, a
general effect which Is artistic and pleas
ing. In the center of the text is the name
Of the Rev. Henry Ward Bcecper IN large
inch letters OF the well kliown Gothic
style used in church inscriptions, while
along the margin, relieving the ornate
tracery OF the scroll work, ane green tinted
palms, crossed over wrcaths Of ilnmorteles
and bound 10 them by bows a Grape.

Another dangerous One.

About o'clock last night when the fire,
which was greedily devouring the well
known busincss-house OF Porter d Macrae,
was raging in all its fury, dense clouds Of
smoke were seen issuing from the fourth
story windows Of No. 3Gi Main street,
which. with No. 366, is occupied
by Ottenhcimer & Schwartz, clothing
and dry goods dealers. The entire fire de-
partmcnt was engaged with the fire Just q
square away ON Front street, and there
was not an engine 10 spare. II was hardly
necessary for the dread fire signal TO be
sounded, for hundreds OF voices from the
thousands Of people who stood for squares
aropnd In the mud and rain
yelled and screamed that another
firc had broken out. IL was In a danger.
Gus locality, the central house in a mag
nliiccnt block OF four story buildings all
, occupied by thriving merchants. Not
outstanding the quick and almost terror
izing alarm for aid, IL was some ten or III.
teen minutes before the fint engine could
disengagc itself from thu Front street fight
and dash the short distance 10 the next
threatened conilagration. But even
before II arrived and the fnt
water was thrown, the red.
tongicd flames shot kissing through the
windows from the rear Of tho building.
On the third and fourth floors there was
but little merchandise, but IL was
covered with paper and wooden boxes
piled on each other. These, Of course,
burned like finder, and the fro went with
lightning speed through thJsc floors.
Several engines soon got 10 work, both
from the rear and front Of the
building. aud succeeded in conhn.
ing the fire 10 No. 36l. The
tlIce upper floors we're completely burned
ont aud the goods on the lirst floor, and In
!. No. 800, greatly damaged by water. The
firm carried stock VI $4,000, on which
they have S20OO0 Insurance, all In local
companies. the names Of which II was inn
possible Ia ascertain ON account Of the
excitement. The damage 10 the stock will
amount 10 about Sl5,0O0, and 10 the build.
ingS, both Of which belong 10 Mrs. u. G.
Williamson, about $1,000, which Il is un.
'dcIHiOOd she has covered by insurance.
The fire started In the rear Of the build.
ing, and the clerks In the store say origin.
nicd from sparks from the Front street iirc.
though Il " singular 10 say that none Of
the other buildings were fired from the
same cause. The fire created the greatest
CONSERVATION, for Il was in locality
which is greatly 10 be dreaded from fir
and, beside being flied with material m.
ready for tho flames, Is hemmed IN ON
either side by buildings Of like stock.
There was a perfect reign OF terror
In the mansion dc joic, which
siis In the rear b the south, fronting on
Jayoso street. The frail inmates ran
Screaming 10 the streets. begging that their
trunks be- saved. Willing men rushed In,
and in less time than Il takes TO write II a
dozen or more big Saratoga trunks were
out on the sidewalk. But the danger had
passed, and the house escaped all damage.
Too much credit can not be given Assistant
fuo Chief Ryan, who hal charge Of the
folccs which handled the fire ~ eicciually.

Gen. Tnompsen,s speech.

The speech made by Gen. John Charles
Thompson, Of Cheyenne, to the bandana
club and citizens generally on the political
issues Of the day at Laramie City last
Saturday evening, was one of the finest
political efforts that has been made in the
territory for many years-in fact that was
ever made in Wyoming. Even the
Boomerang, which is politically opposed
to the general, pays him this high com
aliment:
Our Democratic friends had their in
augural of the campaign last night. on
which occasion their club room was dedi-
Gated or formally opened. The orator of
the evening was Gen. John Charles
Thompson. of Cheyenne, and he was
greeted by an audience fair in size, in
Guiding a number of ladies. The speaker
was introduced by w. j. Hills in a few,
but appropriate remarks, which were
greeted with applause. The boomerang
has neither the space nor inclination to
give even a synopsis Of the generals adj
dress, but we do not hesitate to say that
he is an entertaining talker, and from a
Democratic standpoint he scored "a sue

The close of the Nineteenth century
promises or threatens to be a period Of
petticoat government. A probable en-
press-queen is growing up in Austria,
there is a regent in Spain, and next a
baby king afflicted with a nervous dis
ease. Two healthier children, girls both,
stand in the order of succession. The
heiress apparent to the throne of the
Netherlands is a girl. Said to me an ex-
minister to the court of st. Petersburg,
''the cars two sons are malingres ct
chetifs, and there is a prospect of a
czarina in her own right" The impe-
rial crown of Brazil must soon fall to the
crown princess, a woman of moral
stamina and fine emotions. She has
carried, against a high and threatening
tide of opposition, the abolition of slavery.
1t is to correct the feeble constitution
OF the czarewitch that the car has been
brought to entertain the idea of marry
ing him to a young lady of a hardy
mountain race not consanguine in any
degree with him. Her offspring, if she
had any, might be an improvement on
the existing Romanotfs. The Montene-
grin princess and the czarewitch would
form such n couple as Mary Stuart and
Francis ii. The queen of Greece, the
same diplomatist tells me, has gone TO
st. Petersburg to induce the car to pre-
fer her daughter to the princess from the

WHAT is NEEDED.
The Map of wyoming sadly Need Re-
constructing.

For a long time complaints have been
made by parties who have travelled CON
siderably in different portions of Wyo-
ming that the map of the territory is very
incomplete, and Gov. Moonlight, who has
recently returned from an extreme trip
through the North reiterates what others
have said long ago.
The governor points out a great many
inaccuracies on the present map, and in one
instance demonstrates from actual ex-
p%erience that a certain range of noun
tains do not come within one hundred
miles of the point designated for them on
the published maps. Streams all over the
territory are improperly and inacurately
located, and in some instances they are
made to flow in an exactly opposite direc-
ton from what the fact is, and in many
other respects the maps now in use are
glaringly defective.
1t would be a grand thing for some en-
terprising individual or company to go to
some expense if necessary, and obtain the
correct data regarding these g%laring mac
curacies, and after the true location of
every stream, mountain and mountain
range in the territory has been obtained,
to get out a new map altogether, and the
probabilities are that 1t would have an ex
