THE GROWTH op TEMPERANCE.

ANY ono who remembers the drinking
habits OF thirty or forty years ago, or any
one who has studied the record of social Gus
toms In New England since the settlement OF
thecountry, must beaware that steady and
immense gain in the direction of temperance
has been made, which has extended to all
classes OF society, except possibly to the very
most unfortunate. The drinking customs Of
the past generation are well known. Scene,
at the tables Of the wealthy and cultivated

would now irreclaimably disgrace respectable
people. The clergyman had his pitcher OF
rum on the pulpit with which to moistep hii
lips as he discoursed upon the moral virtues
There arc still extant bills for quantities OF
intoxicating liquor, used at ''raisings" OF
church buildings, and paid for by the parish,
which show an astonishing consumption OF
intoxicants and an absolute federation of their
use. The pail Of rum stood upon the counter
of the country store, and customers helped
themselves with dipper. The results of all
this We're what were to be expected. In the

The fact Is that the general community hal

temperance. The chaAsenhas been so radica,
that It has entered into the life and habits OF
the people; and it has been brought about by
the influence Of individual opinion and the

FALL RIVER, Mass, June 20.-The
suit Of Neil McFadden, John Stanton
and four others against John J. Murphy
and 100 others on a bill in equity, com-
monty known as the "Hibernian case"
was heard before Judge Thompson in the
supreme court four years ago. Judge
Thompson held it under Amusement tor
two years and then rendered a decision
for the defendant. The plaintiffs APP
pealed TO the supreme court and the full
bench has just reversed the decision.
finding for the plaintiffs on the American
boards. The case grew out Of q split of
the Ancient H~ibernians. there being two
boards, one known So the American board
following the Cleveland convention Of
1SS4-and the other known as the Board
of Erin-following The New York con-
vention. The plaintiffs claim that the
divisions in this city had seeded
from the other inasmuch as they refused
20 be bound by the rules prepared by
The Cleveland convention. The defen-
darts claimed they were following the
parent body, which was the board Of
Erin, and thst tho Cleveland convention
and those who recognized it have seeded
from the order and could not be recog-
nized. Judge T~hompson's decision,
which il 0verruled, was to the effect
that the property and funds Of the order
in this city belonged to all Of the mem
beers Of the original division pro rata.
The full bench now decides that the
association organized as division No. /
in 1882 had net been dissolved and that
the plaintiffs aud those they represent
now constitute that division.
The defendants had no right TO appro,
pirate the property Of the division to
their new association. 1t remains the
property OF the division and the plain,
tins are entitled to possession Of it. The
decision has long been awaited by the
members Of the order throughout the
CITY.

dogs. Five Of the number died last week
Of hydrophobia. Today the sixth was
found to be afflicted with rabies, and the
seventh also exhibits symptoms. r. A.
Blair and DR.. It. Il. White, Of this city,
have in their possession so.called mad
stones which they claim are SIRE anti
dotes for mad dog bites. Small asserts
that a maidstone possesses no virtues
whatever, ard to test the matter he offers
$500 20 any person who will submit to
being bitten by the rabid dog now in hls

stone removing the poisonous effects OF
the bite. He had several applications,
and one, g stranger from Arkansas, not

wound, and, though he still lives and il
apparently well, his recovery is deemed
doubtful. He is evidently demented.

One of the most interesting achieve
ments in modern engineering is the cleo
trio mountain railway recently opened
20 the public at the ~Burgenstock, near
Lucerne. The rails describe n grand
curve formed upon an angle OF lib de-
grees, and the system is such that the
Journey ia made as steadily and smoothly
as upon any Of the straight funicular
lines. The Burgenstock is almost per-
pendicular-from the shore Of Lake Lu-
cerne to the Burgenstock is 1880 feet.
and it is 2, $50 feet above the level OF the
sea. The total length Of the line is 935
meters, and it commences with a grail
ent Of 80 per cent. which is increased to
So per cent. after the first 400 meters,
this being maintained for the rest OF the
journey. A single pair Of rails is used
throughout, and the motive power, eiec-
tricity, is generated by two dynamos,
each Of twenty-five horse power, which
are worked by q water wheel OF !nomin
ally 1875 horse power, erected upon the
River Aar at its mouth at Buechs, three
miles away, the electric current being
conducted by means of insulated copper
wires. The loss in transmission IS esti-
mated at Is per cent.

Fret OF the kind.

LINCOLN, Neb., June 2l.--In Justice
SteN arts court yesterday Fred Walters
began a suit against Patrick w. O'Con-
nor TO recover money obtained from him
by the garnishee process in Iowa. The
complaint sets up that the plaintiff, while
a resident of Cass county, this state, and
employed by the Burlington and Mis-
souri,, had his wages garnisheed by one
ID. M. West before a justice Of the peace
in Council Bluffs for S13. 80 on an account
alleged to have been assigned to him by
one p. W. O'Connor, also a resident Of
Nebraska; that by the laws Of Iowa q
resident Of Nebraska is not entitled to
the exemptions from attachments and
garDish aen, granted to heads Of families
by the laws Of Nebraska; that in spite of
the fact that the railroad company made
q showing before the court that Walters
was the head Of a family, his wages were
gsrnisheed and the company paid it.
Walters now brings suit to recover from
O'Connor the mount Of the claim and
costs, $27. 80. 1t is believed that this is
the first case bought under the new stat,
ute to prevent interstate garnisAments.

Trying to Depose Father Dorney.

E CHICAGO, June 20.-Thero is q good

Die outcome of tonight's meeting Of
Camp SO Of the Clan.ns-Gael, at which o
petition to Archbishop Feehan for the
removal of Rev. Father Dorney from the
pastorate Of his church at the stock
yards will be vot. d upon. The desira-
6ility OF taking action against the rever-
end father is as q result Of the stand he
has taken in the Cronin case and also Of
mis- denial that he has been q Clan-na

Asking that the father be removed, and
20 suomi' II 10 the meeting of tonight
for approv.i or rejection. Should it be

ina ordinary interest attaches TO the
outcome from the fact that this is
the hrst time since the organization
OF this diocese that such "a movement has
been directed against a priest and if the
petition is addressed and presented the
reply OF the archbishop will establish
something of a precedent. Heretofore
In other oioceses il has been the practice
OF the high authorities of the churches

OTTAWA, Ont, June Cot is reported
in official circles here that the Canadian
government has impressed on the impe-

an early settlement of the Behring sea
difficulty, and suggests that the British
ambassador at Washington be instructed
to learn from the Washington govern
ment whether it is willing to agree to the
appointment Of an international commits
sion to inquire fully into the whole ques-
ton of the seal fisheries Of Alaska. The
government here is of the opinion that
the question Of the right of the United
States to the exclusive privilegesin Behr-
ing sea could be satisfactorily gone into
and decided upon by such a commission,
and that the report Of such . commission
to the legislatures of both countries
would be Of incalculable value N tending

incnt farmers in this county, was recently
declared insane, and Smith Mapes, a
neighbor. was appointed guardian. The
proceedings were conducted in a quiet
manner. and Mrs. Whites nearest
neighbors did not know that she was
crazy till informed CT her confinement in
the asylum. Benjamin White, her son,
now files suit against Mapes and his
brothers George and William, alleging
tina. they caused his mother to be de-
clared of unsound mind by practicing a
fraud Oh the court; that they had judg-
ment rendered by fraud and that they
had plenty Of opportunity 10 do SO. He
asks that Mapes be removed as guardian
and that the judgment declaring his
mother to be OF unsound mind be de-
clared null and void. The heirs today
made application for a division Of the
estate. and all the circumstances point TO
the incarceration Of the woman simply
to get hold Of her property.
