Last Monday about one-half Of
the sixty members of the Phillips
burg Telephone Company met at the
Court House IN response to a call for
meeting to decide what steps should
be taken looking towards an adjust
menU OF the trouble between our CON-
pany and the Bell Telephone Com
Pany which corporation claims that
we are infringing upon their rights
by using the Yiaduct Instrument
Geo. A. Spaulding, the President Of
the Company, who had taken a trip
to Topeka to investigate the matter,
made report, after which the mat
ter was very thoroughly talked over
by those present. A proposition was
made that the Phillipsburg Company
promptly discontinue the use of the
Viaduct Instruments till a further in
vesbigatiOn of the matter was made
inasmuch as a formal notice had been
served upon the officers SO to do. THIS
motion was lost. It was finally de-
| cided to propose to the Bell Company
that Phillipsburg viii box up all their
instruments and give the proper
guaranty that they shall not be used
here nor elsewhere, il the Bell Com
pany will agree to commence no suit
/ against the Phillipsburg Company
for an infringement of their patent.
If the officers of the Bell Company
agree to this proposition the Phillips
burg Directors have authority TO dis
continue the further use of our in
struments. IF they do not accept
then the Phillipsburg stockholders
Will be called together again to de-
eide what course shall be persued

Lightning Hits a Church Tower.

FREDERICK, April Ga very curious
state of the weather has prevailed in this
section OF the county since an early hour
this morning. A heavy rain storm set in
just before daylight. followed in few
hours by cool wind and heavy fall OF
snow. The snow fell steadily all day.
Many telegraph and telephone wires were
broken down by the weight of the snow
Shortly after ten o'clock, and while the
snow was falling steadily, a flash of
lightning burst from the clouds. followed
by heavy peal of thunder. No damage
is reported by the storm from any sec,
lion of the county except Adamstown. a
village situated about eight miles from
this city. Here the lightning struck the
belfry of St. Luke's Protestant Episcopal
Church, completely demoishing the
tower. The lightning ran along the roof
of the church and into the ground IN the
rear. There was no one in the church at
the time. The damage to the church will
amount to several hundred dollars. To
night the snow and rain have ceased.
but the wind is raw and cold.

TIE Disaster at Samoa.

WASHINGTON. April 7.-Duriug the
past week there has been considerable
talk in naval circles about the RESPONSE
bility for the recent disaster at Samoa.
A number of the most pronounced dis
ciplinariaus of the service are nor slow to
condemn the action OF Admiral Kim berly
in allowing the vessels to be caught in
such storm without using some precau-
tionary measures. This was the season
o! the year when hurricanes and tidal
waves might be looked for, and the sail
ing directions plainly state this fact
Many officers think, especially since the
story of the escape of the British steamer
Calliope, that there is sure to be an in
vestigation by court of inquiry. The
loss of life and ships will have TO be in
quired into. If there was coal enough to
get M steam on the ships, it was, they
say. Admiral klmberly's duty to have
fired up aud then run them out of the
harbor, as the commander of the Calliope
did aud ride out the storm. If 1T is
found there was no coal, then the cause
of this affair should be inquired into and
the responsibility fixed where it belongs.

A storm of unusual violence, lnclud-
ing rain, hail and snow, with high wind
and occasional thunder and lightning,
prevailed on Saturday in North Caro-
lima, the Virginias, Maryland and South
ern and Western Pennsylvania. High
winds also prevailed along the coast,
and five lives were lost by the founder
ing of barge in Delaware Bay. Great
damage was done at Norfolk and Ports
mouth, Virginia. The lower portion of
Norfolk was flooded. and a fire result
ing from the Stacking of lime on wharf
caused a loss estimated at $4,000.
Many buildings were unroofed by the
wind. AT Portsmouth the United States
ship Pensacola, at the dry dock for re-
pairs, was sunk by the flooding of the
dock. Marine disasters are reported
in Chesapeake Bay.

Another distinguished victim of
over-work, i. e., mental intemperance.
This time the learned and able Rev.
DR.. Morgan Dix, who for a quarter of a
century has occupied the historic pull
pit of Trinity, New York. DR.. Dix IS
not an old man. Indeed, considering
his vigorous ancestor, the late General
John A. Dix, he ought now, at sixty
two, to be simply In his prime. But
for twenty years this eminent man has
been driving the engine at high rate
of speed, writing, lecturing, preaching,
and doing enough other work for two
men, and so Nature suddenly and
sternly admonishes him of his unfair
treatment of her. Almost every day the
newspapers tell of similar cases, but of
the great army of the "knocked out
the world never hears. The strain is
almost universal, and the number of
victims of overwork would startIe every
community if generally known. 1t is
one of the growing crimes of American
life, especially in our great centres of
population and commercial activity.
Every year we send abroad shipload
after shipload of broken down and pre-

The attempt made last week by sew
eral members of Labor Union to blow
up brewery in New York with dyna-
mite, emphasizes the necessity of our
own and every other civilized Govern
ment enacting stringent regulations with
regard to the manufacture and custody
of dangerous explosives. All civilized
governments ought to come to an un-
derstanding for the mutual protection
OF their citizens from class of Scum
drels inclined to use powerful explosives
for the furtherance of their ends, or to
avenge themselves for real or tancIed
wrongs. This whole business of the
manufacture and custody of explosives,
and the responsibility Herewith con
nected, has been put on an altogether
different footing, as matter OF public
concern, during the last few years, from
what it was quarter of a century ago,
by the comparative ease with which de-
structive agents of enormous power may
be manufactured.
