couldn't make mile in five minutes.
1t is considered valuable horse be-
cause it can trot at all under the cir

three legs, but has made the most of
its limited facilities, and is the only
three legged trotter in the country.

AND THE EARTH TREMBLED.
A small Volcanic Eruption in Nassau Street
-

Two pedestrians in Nassau street at noon
to-day were crossing diagonnlly from the
Fourth National Bank to the southwest
corner of Pine street.
Suddenly the earth beneath their feet be
gan to rumble mud to rise under them.
With blanched faces they broke into n run.
There was n low report, and looking behind
them they saw the pavement rise three feet
and then fall back, broken, III II confused
mass.
A manhole of the Electrical Subway. about
three feet across, was the centre Of the vol
Cano. 1t was Of heavy iron, and the pave
ment was of asphalt and II foot thick.
A block of the pavement fully ten feet
square and weighing three tons had been
lifted clear OF the ground. Water flowed
from the cracks made in the asphalt by the
earthquake.
Seml-cxpcrtS venturod the opinion to n
quickly assembled audience of 800 brokers,
iankers md townmen that gas had escaped
from the mains in the street into the subway
Ind Accumulated i'll the manholc until it
hadn't room and then made room by lifting
away IL few tons Of pavement.
Nobody was hurt.

SHANGHAI, Jan. &. -The fro which broke
out in the imperial palace at Pekin on the
18th il still raging, but will be confined
within its present limits.
Tho loss il enormous. The palace
enclosure is n city itself, and about II quarter
of it is i'll flames. The great audience hall
with its elaborate ornaments and valuable
works of art. is destroyed.
TIL Treasury building and most of its con-
tents are in ashes. Whole streets of offices,
storehouses and residences of officials al the
court nave been swept away.
Tn quarter of the palace in which the
Emperor aud Empress mother lived were
saved. But tho panic there was terrible.
Their Maiesties were hastily conveyed to the
fortress at II safe distance from tho flames.
The palace and warehouses were heaped
with costly stuff and treasures which had
been accumulated in preparation for tho
marriage of the Emperor. Immense guam
titics were DESTROYED. The loss tar exceeds
that of the looting of the palace by the
English, thirty years ago.
The calamity hRS had II depressing effect on
the superstitiuus Chinese. 1t IL regarded m
an evil omen having occurred in the midst
of The Dr, paratiOns for the wedding festivl-
tics of the Emperor.

Dowager announcing the coming nuptlals of
her grandson il of interest.
That she has the conuubial happiness of
the young Emperor NJ heart there can bo no
douut when the following remarkable paper
is read
Since the Emperor rcyorently entered upon
the succession 10 his great patrimony he has
been gradually growing ~ to manhood, and il

An immense sum of money has been spen
in making preparations for these remarkabl,
ceremonies.
The marriage will have to be postponed il
consequence of the dis lstcr.
The severe sickness Of the Prime Minister

gloom. He was stricken with paralysis u few
days Ago., and his recovery is doubtful.

An IL THE LAW.
a matter involving a few thousand dollars is
worthy the careful attention of learned Judges
and referees. But the forced separation of a
child from n mother, the breaking up of u
home. the sundering of the tenderest ties of
humanity is left to the discretion of n busy
police justice, and from his decision, though
demonstrated by further evidence to be faulty,
there is no appeal. Even the police magistrate
himself can not reopen the case. though he may
be fully convinced of his error!
THE SENSIBLE SUPREME COURT JUSTICES.
The present supreme Bench of New York,
recognized throughout the world for its high
character and its judicial acumen, appreciates
this legal anomaly and cnormity. Az far AZ
known, the justices are heartily i'll favor of an
amendment giving the right of appeal. This is
an unsoliish attitude, for the Bench is over
worked already by the enormous grist of bust
ness that comes to it..
DRAWN Up ny A w~ELL-KSowN JUDGE.
One of these judges, in behalf of The EVENING
WORLD, has drawn up an amendment to the cX-
listing law.
The proposed amendment is in the form of an
additional section to the Children's law, reading
as follows:
T. All proceedings under this section, when = COM
mitment shall have been made, shall be subject to
review by any court OF record, upon certiorari on the
facts and the law, and in such n proceeding tho commit
ment order or Judgment may be affirmed or reversed or
modified in such manner and 10 such extent as may
seem best, or a rohearing Of the charge ordered.
PRESENTED ny ROBERT RAY HAMILTON.
This amendment is embodied in a bill pre-
scented in the Assembly by Robert Ray Hamilton.
1t was referred to the Judiciary Committee.
The Assembly Comm ittee on Judiciary. to
whom is contidcd the responsibility of making
the first report on this measure in the peoples
behalf, consists of the following gentlemen:
Messrs. SaNton, Wayne; Ainsworth. Oswcgo;
Coon, Oswego; Whipplc, Cattaraugus; Acker,
Steuben; Van Gorder, Wyoming; Townc, Chau-
tauqua; Greene, Orange; Shcehan, Erie; Roesch,
New York; Demarest, Rockland.
HEARING NEXT THURSDAY.
A public hearing upon it has been set for next
Thursday. The amendment, despite its origin
and its formidable backing, will be vigorously
opposed by officials of the $. 2. c.. c. and
others, who prefer the present autocratic law,
which gives them a power greater than that held
by the Gar of Russia and saves them a great
deal of trouble.

The Fourth of July.

Now is the proper time to rise and
ask: "What are we going to do on the
Fourth?" Are we going to have a eel
ehrat;on Of our own on the cYor-glorious
anniversary or are we going away visit
ing? Which is there the most money
in for the city having q great big
blowout here or everybody go out Of
town and spend all he's got?
Stufgis could get up a first-class
celebration if It only would. Meade
county should have a high old time on
that day and give herself fine send-off
from old Lawrence. Let us have good,
old fashioned Fourth of July picnic and
imagine We are enjoying ourselves We
refer the matter 10 those more deeply
interested in Fourth Of July matters
than us, for instance, the band,
