ELSEWHERE in this paper will be
found details of the most appalling dis
aster of this disastrous age, by which,
as is computed by the latest adyices,
5000 or 10, 600 lives were lost and three
thriving business towns-Johnstown,
Conemaugh and Cambria City-are
wiped out of existence. The loss of
property goes far up in the millions.
What few of the inhabitants of these
towns survive this unparalleled disas-
ter are homeless and penniless, and "A
charitable people will have it to see to
that their immediate wants are provid-
ed for.

brings to view human vultures who,
unmoved at the awful death of their
fellows, and the touching grief of the
bereaved, think only of debauchery and

themselves drunk and then boldly
swagger and bully in the presence of
the most awful misfortune and grief.

His Way.

Ny love and in the garden path,
Parted last night with words Of wrath.
And what, forsooth, could the quarrel be1
That came between my love and me!
Only this thing, which of rs too
Loved the other most strong aud true.
Her love. she said, was like a star,
Nor time nor Change could blight or mar.
A star. whose fixed, uncea.ing light,
Snone SPLENDID IN tue darK OF night.
Ny love, said, was ike sun
That to imperial strength had won;
A SUI, whose ra 1ient glow would last
When all stars from the SKY haI passed.
And then-why then the quarrel came,
And both-and neither-were to blame,
And parting in the heat of this,
Why, We forgot the parting Kiss.
The bloodiest battles ever fought,
Sprang from some idle wnim or thought;
And needless words have given the years
Their saIdeSt hearts, their bitterest tears,
Because of pride that left unsaid
WHAT these poor souls had comforted.
And shall let this quarrel bring
An end to love 5 sweet poisoning?
All, no; for though my love were wrong,
Ny soul should be so brave ami strong,
That both our fallings it could take.
And bear them all for loves sweet sake.
So shall seek my love. and say,
grant your love the widest sway;
grant you that your heart doth hold
Love 5 brightest light and purest gold;
And when our sky is clear once more,
And love runs Smoothly as before,
My love will strongest be l know
But ah, l shall not tel. her 80.

Whitetield and Hon. James Habersham,
who established an orp ans home at Be

lug an orphans home in Georgia was first
suggested by Rev. Charles Wesley, in 1877.

After reviewing the schools established in
the state some years after the revolutionary
war, such as Sunbury, C atham and Rich

were made in 1s45 and 1856 to establish
such system. In 1883 the legislature set
apart 100000 annually for public schools,
but the plans contemplated were inter

school system was adopted after the war.

site OF the Proposed Exposition.

New York intends TO spare no effort to
have the proposed international exposition
in 1892. to celebrate the discovery of Amer
lea by Columbus, held in that city. Mayer
Grant is already moving in the matter, and
he is heartily supported by the press and
merchants Of New York. OF course Wash
ington expects that she will be selected as
the location. When the celebration was
first proposed no other city was thought Of.
Washington's claim to it was generally
recogn ed.
Since the discussion of the exposition prop
osition began, however, a great many
very strong argume Is have been adva ced
in favor Of New York. These arguments
have been stated by the MORNING NEWS.
Whether or not they will be regarded as
sufficient 10 justify the selection Of the
nations greatest city rather than the
nations capital as the site of the exposition
Is question that must on be determined.
Before the question If holding TIE exposi-
tiol elsewhere than in Washington was
rsi'ed, tbs proposal to celebrate the 4OOch
anniversary Of the discovery of America
met with the approval of the representa-
tives in Washington of the fifteen Contra
aud South American republics. These
representatives, under instructions from
their respective governments, gave the ex-
position project very hearty Endorsement.
Whether they will indorse it or not if New
York is selected as the site Of the expositiol
is yet undetermined. There does not ap-
pear to be any good reason why they
should not. AS far as t e republics or
Central aud South America are concerned
it cannot make much ference W ether
the exposition is held in Washington or
Ne York.
The point has been raised that the South
American representatives would like the
exT osition tn DO held at the seat of govern
ment, so that they would be brought into
closer relations with the heads of the gov
eminent. AS one of the purposes of the
exposition is 20 stimulate trade between
this country and the Cent al and Sou
American republics. this argument is not
without force.
II the exposition is held in Washington
the government, doubtless, will erect the
necessary buildings. If it is held in New
York tic buildings, in all probability, will
have to be erected by private enterprise
If the government is called upon TO assist
the exposition the condi ion of such assist
ance will be, it is reasonable TO suppose,
that the exposition is held in Washington.
There is no doubt that, all things consid-
cred, New York is the place for the exposl-
ton. If publie sentiment is consulted the
location of it will be there. The struggle
between the two cities for it will, it is safe
to say, be an interesting one

The South Leads Again.

The report of the RdiI'Cdy Age on rail-
road track laying in tbs United States for
tie first six months Of 1889 furnisA les fresh
violence of the material growth of the
south, toe signific mt features of it being
that more than half of the entire number
miles put down was ii the south, and that the
hVe states which led in trace laying we g
southern states, viz, Mississippi, Georgia,
Nortl Carolina, Ten .essee and Texas. Mis-
sSsppl led all the other state, there having
been const, NC ed within her limits III miles.
Geo g1a was second, with 147 miles The
track laying in Mississippi was UP IN only
three lines, however, and chiefly upon the
Georgia Pacific, while in Georgia it was
upon seven lines. Ia North Carolina 1O6
miles were laid, in Tenne see 1O5, AID in
Texas 10l. Pennsylvania followed Texas
with 81 miles. OIly II nils were laid in
New Y rk. The total nunter of miles
laid was l,522, of which 900 were in the
south.
Railroads and manufactures are two of
the most powerful f tct rs in the grow h of
any country, and for some time reports
have shown that more of them we're being
built in the south than in any other part Oh
the United States.
1t seems evident from this report that
there viii bs considerable falling off H.
railway construction in the c ,uItry this
year from 1888, and that there will be
nothing like the lumber Of miles that we t
constructed in 1887. That year the number
was $4,000. The railr ads that are bel z
cous ructed now, however. are the result OIL
legi innate demand, and this is especially
the case in the south.

The Ripper" Resum es Work.

Our dispatches conveyed the Intelligence
the other day that the Whitechapel tie d.
commonly known as Jack the Ripper"
had murdered another wo nan in the
Viii echapel district of Loldon. This
is the eighth murder of the kind
that he has committed in that dis
trict. The first was during Christmas
week Of 1887, the second Aug ?, 1888, the
third Aug. 81, the fourth Sept. z the fifth
and sixth Sept. 3, and the sew
enth Nov. o. About the time of
the seventh murder, the fiend concluded
that he had better suspend operations for
while, and for ;ix or seven months nothing
was heard of him. Although no had pre-
viouoly notified tho police that he would
kill his fifteenth victim before surrenieriug.
the public began to eieve, from his long
inactvitv, that he had been frightened int
abandoning his plan; but few weeks ago
letters were received by he lice aud by
the leader Of the vigilance committee in
London, stating that he would resume work
in July. How he ks IT his word has been
told by the diipatcnss.
AS in the other seven cases, there is no
satisfactory clew to the murderer in the
eighth, and the police and detectives are
more lnystif14d than ever. Whitechapel is
again in trenor of excitement, and the
ignorant classes there nave taken up the
superstition that the fiend is invisible The
man who was arrested the other day, who
gave his name as Villa n Brodie, and who
confessed that he committed all the muir
de.s is thought to be harmless luna ic.
The murderer evlden ly considers in all
of its bearings his chance Of escape before
he commits his crimes. His plans are lail
with an exactness that nigh command ad-
miration if be were not engaged In an afro.
cious work, and they are executed with hor-
rible collness and nu1acity.
