Almost a Fire.

Thursday morning about two
o'clock, during the high wind, Mr..
j. NJ. Startling, who lives on North
Main street, was awakened by the
slaming of a door. On getting up
he proceeded to search the house
with pistol in hand, when the smell
of fire reached him from the kitchen.
A closet adjoining the kitchen was
discovered to be on fire, the top of the
door and part of the door frame
being partially consumed. The fire
was extinguished with little trouble,
but the apprehension of another out
break made the family wakeful the
remainder of the night. The fire is
supposed to have had its origin in
some matches, TO which the rats had
access. The night was a bad one for
fires and the family had narrow
escape. According to insurance sta
tistics matches cause large per cent
age of fires, and doubtless they cause
a considerable portion of fires when
the origin is unknown.

The Home Market Club Dinner.
SENATOR SHERMAN TELLS WHAT SORT OF TARIFF RE-
FORM HE FAvoRs.
There were only thirteen persons at the table
for distinguished guests at the Home Market Club
dinner in Boston last night. Among them were
Senator Sherman and Representatives Con and
Mckinley. Senator Sherman made the principal
speech OF the evening, combining himself mostly to
the tarif. Mr.. Mckinley also spoke.
In the course OF his remarks senator Sher-
man said: "The home market deals with over
eight thousand million dollars annually Of
LION OF manufactures while the foreign mar
ket deals with only fifteen hundred million dol
lars OF exports OF sand and imports annually, and more NOR
is not all; every part OF the capital and labor
employed In the production OF the home market Is
American labor and capital. These productions
are transported on Amerlcan railroads, steam-
boats, and wagons. They are exchanged for each
other by American merchants, tradeSInen, and
middlemen, and more than ninety per cent OF
them Is consumed by the American people. It is
the home market that gives employment, life,
strength, health, wealth, and comfort to the peO-
pie OF the United States. on the other hand, our
foreign market is conducted entirely by foreign
ers."
Speaking Of Mr. Lowelrs eulogy of President
Cleveland, Mr.. Sherman said: "NOw, for what has
Mr.. Cleveland been distinguished TO JUSTIFY this
civileservice REFORM and be has practiced the most
general, sweeping removals IN the public on ces
Ance Government was established" The second
ground waSShe Presidents recent message. OF his
own position tari reform. the Senator SAID that
he was decidedly in favor OF It; "but my idea OF
tariff reform Is not especially TO make our duties
acceptable TO foreign nations, but rather To
promote the interests OF our own people;
not 10 take lessons from the Golden Club OF
the English aristocracy. but from Washing
the teachings OF Webster and Clay. But you may
ask me how would reduce the surplus revenue?
