A WaIf Ycsr m Horrors.

This year Of 1889 bids fair to earn the
title Of the year of horrors. II started
in with the great cyclone so fatal In
Reading and widely destructive. Then
canle the Glencoe collision In the British
channel, ,theHartford hotel explosion, the
burning Of the W ilkesbarre squib factory,
the Somoa hurricane, the prairie fires
in Dakota, the violent storms In April, a
three million dollar fire I'm New York,
the long anxiety Of the Danmark disas-
ter the very destructive and fatal storms
along the coast In May and ,overshadow-
ing all the calamities Of civilized lands
and modern times, the flood mt Johns
town aud along the Susquchanna. That
calamity has 50 exhausted the capacity
for horror that the great Seattle fire aud
the killing and maugling Of n large
number Of children on an Irish railroad
seem to produce very little impression.
The world is at peace, but we are going
through severe training I'm horrors
vieing with those Of war, and In addi-
ton 10 the great disasters noted there
have been many railroad collisions, muir
ders, hangings and suicides.
