Women Who Work.

The number of women, both single
and married, now looking for employ
ment is greater than ever before. The
salaries for young men in clerkShipS and
other genteel employments have be-
come so reduced that few can afford to
marry unless the woman is willing to
put ''her shoulder to the wheel'' and
help with her means to keep the pot
boiling. The trouble usually is that
when the wife commences to work out
side her home the husband becomes
careless and frequently allows the chief
burden of their support to rest upon
her. 1t is always better, when it
is possible, for the wife to leave
the providing to her husband,
and devote her energies to make COM
Portable home and encourage his efforts.
but in many cases ill health and the
impossibility of obtaining paying en-
ployment prevent the husband from do
ing his duty in this respect. Should
this happen, it is well for woman to
be prepared, and in the early days of
married life it is easy to acquire either
trade OF profession that may stand
their friend in the future. A good
dressmaker or milliner need never suf-
fer for lack of means; competent art
ist or physician can utilize her gifts to
advantage, if necessary; typewriting is
easily acquired. and woman who can
make good loaf of bread, a crisp roll
or frSt-claSs pastry need never know
the want of dollar.

BISMARCK, Oak, Aug. 16.-The ag-

Ital of North Dakota in the constitution,
and the other public institutions are To-
Gated as previously published. AT TO-
nights session the capital was crowded.
Every seat in the gallery and lobby was
occupied, and interested citizens from
all parts OF the new state crowded the
corridors and craned their necks to
catch the words of the opposing forces
on the floor. When the article locating
the public institution was reached,
Messrs. Purcess, of Wahpeton, Bartlett,
of GriggS, and johnson, of Lakota, re-
newed their fllibustering tactics, but
they were promptly sat upon, and the
article was adopted by vote of 45 to
%. When the vote was announced, the
immense concourse of visitors shook the
capital with applause. Hats were
thrown in the air, ladies waved their
handkerchiefs, and everybody save the
representatives of the defeated candi-
dates for the capital rejoiced over the
settlement of the veXed question. Bis
marck is jubilant tonight, and congrat-
ulating telegrams are already beginning
to pour in from all parts of the country.

DisraeIi's Primrose.

London Spectator.
Lord Beaconsfeld's fondness for the
primroses originated when he was liv-
ing in Highbury, London. Here he was
much attached to a young lady residing
in the same locality, who was the
daughter of gentleman of good prop
erfy. At a ball given at this gentle
mans house the young lady in question
wore wreath of primroSes. A discus
sion arose between Mr.. Disraeli and an
other gentleman as to whether the
primroses were real or not. A bet of
pair of gloves was made, and on the
young lady being consulted and the
primroses being examined, the bet was
won by Mr.. Disraeli. The primroSes
were real primrOSeS, and the young
lady gave two or three of them to the
future prime minister, which he put in
his buttonhole and kept. and used to
show long afterwards.
Some have thought that because the
queen sent wreath of primrOSes to
Lord Beaconsfeld's funeral the flower
became his badge in that way. This is
a mere invention. The queen did not
know at the time that the primrose was
Lord Beaconsfeld'S favorite flower, and
she did not, consequently, send wreath
of primroses to his funeral at all. Others
have entertained the opinion that the
noble lord appreciated the flower be-
cause he says in one of his novels that
the primrose makes an excellent salad.
This is incorrect again, and the true
history of the way the primrose became
the noble lords favOrite flower is re-
corded above,

AN ECCLESIASTICAL COURT.
Pope Leo Appoints One in the
United Ssates.

Pope Leo Appoints One in the
United Ssates.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 16.-The ap-
pointment of high ecclesiastical tri-
bunal by the pope for the Roman Cath
olic church in the United States is be-
lieved to have been already consum-
mated, although inquiry to-day failed
to develop the existence of Off
cial notification. The information
obtained is to the effect that the tri-
bunal or court shall have referred to it
all cases in which the church In the
United States is concerned, for adjudi-
cation, and that the tribunal consists of
Cardinal Gibbons, of Baltimore; Arch
bishop Corrigan, of New York. A
prominent priest of the archdiocese,
who did not desire his name used, when
questioned on the matter said:
"That such a court has been constituted by
Rome, and consists of his eninence Car.
dinal Gibbons, Archbishop Ryan and Arch
bishop Corrigan, do not think there is any
doubt. Where any of these three are inter
ested in case, then the senior archbishop
next senior. in point of appointment.
The object of the tribunal is to relieve Rome
of the burden of hearing appeals from this
country. Rome wants to get rid of thPse on
account of her inability really to hear the
multitude of cases that press from all quar-
ters. Reasons for this are the great
distance between US, the difficulty
that is experienced in bri nging wit
nesses and of securing proper evidence, and
the delay caused in the adjustment of such
cases. Lam pretty sure of the information
received that the members of the court have
been appointed and are organizing 1t
must be nearly three months since the matter
was absolutely decided upon. The court
will not interfere with the present courts
established il the country for the trial of
cases, further than that, instead Of an appeal
being made directly from the metropolitan to
Rome it will be from the metropolitan to
this new ecclesiastical tribune"
"Will the decisions of the new court be
final?' was asked.
II am inclined to believe that Rome will
never shut off an appeal to her. 1 do not see
how she can. think that the hope is that
the decisions will be SO conspicuously just
that no one win be tempted to complain
of it,

ESCAPED GAS EXPLODES.
A Dozen Persons Frightfully Cut
and Burned.

New YORK, Aug. l6.-At s o'clock
this evening an explosion of escaped
gas occurred in the crOckery store of
Thomas j. McCabe, 400 Grand street,
by which one man was almost instantly
killed and a dozen men, women and
children were badly injured. The shock
was felt for quite distance around and
caused great excitement in the thickly
crowded neighbOrhood. Flames quickly
followed the explosion, and the store
was soon ablaze. When the explosion
occurred the heavy plate glass windows
were burst violently in fragments and
hurled into the street. Broken
pieces of crockery were also
thrown in all directions. Morris
Jacobs, aged seventeen years, who was
passing the store at the time, was
struck in the back and neck by several
pieces of plate glass, and so terribly
lacerated that he bled to death after
staggering few yards away. Among
the injured, some of whom had been in
the store and some of them passing in
the street, are: Jacob Seigel, aged
twenty-four, head and neck cut. may
die; Lena Abrahams, niue, cut on
head; Betsy Gruber, fifteen, right arm
CuI, UGIulC HlAtCCu,
der lacerated: GusSie Friedman, thir-
teen, head and knee cut; Harris
Becker, thirty-five. left hand cut; Da-
vid Dundas, ten. both legs badly cut;
Teresa Maxim, forty, head and neck
badly cut, also injured by being
knocked down; Rosa Malkin, daughter
of Teresa, sixteen, forehead lacerated;
Mary Parr, cut about head; Gus Hinder
man, twenty, arms cut; Albert Klein,
twenty-five, badly cut about head;
A few others were cut or bruised, but
went home before their names could be
learned. Jacobs was returning home
from work. He had just got employ
ment after being idle for some time, and
had been telling his friends how glad he
was for his family'S sake. Seigel was
crazed by his wound and the shock, and
ran madly through the street. scattering
blood as he went. He fought desper-
ately with policeman who stopped
him. but was finally overpowered and
taken to the police station, and thence
to hospital. 1t is feared that his skull
is fractured. Mrs, Malkin and her
daughter live near by, and were walk
ing up and down the block for exercise.
The Friedman sisters had been visiting
friends across the way from McCabe's,
and had just crossed the street. The
fire was put out before the building was
much damaged. None of the members
of the six families occupying the build
ing were hurt.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug. 16.-The south
bound passenger train on the Butler
branch of the West Pennsylvania rail-
road which left Butler, Pa, at 2:35
o'clock this afternoon. jumped tine track
at Sarver's station, and the entire train,
consisting of two passenger coaches and
a combination smoking and baggage
car, went over an embankment and was
totally wrecked. Three persons were
killed outright and twenty-five others
injured, number of whom will die.
The killed and injured are as follows:
KILLED.
W. POWERS, Lawrenceville, Pa.
Child of Mrs. FARRELL, of Butler.
Mrs. DUFF, an old lady, residence un-
known.
The wounded as far as known are:
Ex.Mayor LYON, of Pittsburg, seriously in
the shoulder.
Capt LOWER. of Pittsburg, head badly cut.
d. A. JONES and wife. OF Pittsburg, seriously
hurt and bruised.
j. A. MCLAUGHLIN, Of Pittsburg, fatally in.
jured.
Col. RowLEY, OF Pittsburg, slightly in
jured.
Conductor GRAY. of Butler, seriously in
jured internally.
Brakeman KiRNs, of Butler back broken.
Mrs. GRAFT, of Pittsburg, injured seri-
ously.
BESSIE FULLwooD, of Pittsburg, cut in
head.
Capt. GRACE, Of jamestown. N Y, pain
fully injured.
About fifteen others were more or less
injured, whose names are unObtainable
at this writing. The accident was
caused by the spreading of the rails on
a small bridge. The rails were on
StringerS which had rOtted with time
and long service. The engine passed
over the bridge safely, but the first car
was derailed and plunged down into the
abyss some thirty feet below. The rails
plOughed through the second car and
escapes were miraculous. One lady had
her dress cut from wrist to shoulder,
another lost small piece of her cheek !;
third had her chin cut, and many
others in the second car miraculously
escaped. The train was running with
the main car next to the engine and the
baggage car in the rear, as is the Gus
tom on the branch to facilitate transfer
at the junction for Pittsburg. This is the
first serious railroad accident that ever
occurred in Butler county and, as this
particular train was loaded with vet
Grams returning to their homes from the
encampment near there, much solicit
tude is expressed in Butler over the
disaster

FLOODS IN THE SOUTH.
Heavy Washouts Delay Travel in
South Carolina.

CHARLESTON, s. c., Aug. 16.-On ac-
count of heavy washOuts on the South
Carolina railroad all connection with
Camden is shut off. Serious damage
was also done at several points on the
Wilmington, Columbus & Augusta rail-
road. All hope of the rice on the San
tee river is gone. The area frequented
is not more than five miles wide or fifty
or sixty miles long. There was no
thunder or lightning, but a steady,
tremendous dOwnpour of rain. 1t is
estimated that twelve inches fell in two
hours. Seven miles of the Camden
branch of the South Carolina railway
are washed away. Cotton fields about
Gadsden have been washed clean. Cat
tie have been drowned by hundreds,
and great damage has been done.
