~ Miles Cooper (colored lives in Orlando,
Fla. He was one of Mr.. Davis servants,
and when he heard that the ex-President
was dangerously i'll, he went TO New Or
leans to minister at his bedside. He arrived
too late, however-Mr. Davis died a few
hours before he could get to the house, and,
when he saw the lifeless features of his old
master, his grief was indeed pathetic.

Tbs Alarm of Fire Sounded on Ac-
count Of Blaze in a Barn.
JoHSsTowN. Pa, Dec. 11.-Agaia has
this Inflated town been visited with dis
aster. This time, instead of water, it was a
cry of fire which sent nearly a score of
lives into eternity and MANNED fully sew
enty-ive others, many of whom
are probably fatslly injured. Park
opera house, where the catastro-
phe occurred, is three-story
building situated on Main street, near the
corner Of Franklin, and was used as a din
ing-room for severa, mon his after the
flood. The building has for a long time
been considered unsafe. and many people
couldn't be hired to attend any kind of an
entertainment there There were about
800 persons. principally women and chill
| dren, in the house last night.
CAUSE OF THE ALARM.
About 1870 O'Clock, as the perform lncc
was about closing. there was an alarm OF
| fire sounded by fireman stationed on the
corner near the orera house, caused by the
discovery of fire in Dr. Wakerfield's stable
| IN Kernville. The alarm being sounded so
close, greatly excited the audience, and
| they Immediately rushed for the street.
They were met at the entrance by a crowd
| from outside, who thought the fire
was in the opera house. The crowds
| came together on the close stairway,
which is not over six feet wide,
and the frantic effort of those in the rear
of the outcoming crowd caused a terrib e
| jam, which was made still worse by persons
| jumping from the galleries on the heads of
those on the stairs. The firemen had to
| turn their hose on those on the outside to
| ease the jam. and when the injured could
be gotten at the stairway was found to be
| piled almost to the level of the upper floor
with dead and dying. Thirteen persons
were taken out dead

Some time ago Hastings Post, G. A. R.,
of Lewiston, Pa, requested Mr.. Cleveland to
contribute something TO be voted for at a
fair it was going to give. Mr.. Cleveland
made a money contribution, and in his
letter he took occasion to say that it
was refreshing to know that one post
proposed to increase its efficiency as a
charitable institution mo one can deny, -
he said, that the grand army has been
played upon by demagogues for partisan
purposes, and has yielded to insidious bland
ishments to such an extent that it is re-
garded by many good citizens whose patri-
otism and fairness cannot be questioned as
an organization which has wandered far
way from its avowed design" This was
strictly true, but it gave republican organs
a coveted chance to endeavor to make party
capital.

Secretary Blaine has recently written to a
son of the late John Roach, ship builder,
letter in which he is very severe upon ex-
Secretary Whitney for his treatment of Mr.
Roach in connection with the Dolphin, and
Senator Chandler is trying to get congress
to pay to the assignees of Mr.. Roach the
money which MIR. Whitney very properly
refused to pay. Mr.. Roach failed to carry
out his contract, and be found in Mr.. Whit
ney conscientious public servant, who
required proper service from government
contractors, rather than loose business
man, like ex-Secretary Chandler, who
winked at his failure to execute contracts
The republicans frequently talk about the
cruel manner in which Mr. Roach was
treated by Mr.. Whitney, but they do SO
simply to cover up the favoritism shown
him by republican administrations.

The Chieftain at Rest.

The south's dead chieftain was carried to
his tomb yesterday. The funeral was sucl
a one as the world has seldom seen. All
the states of the south took part in it
states which not very long ago formed
mighty confederacy Of which jefferson
Davis was the Presi lent. He was not only
the President, but the leader.
He had the profound respect and love Of
more people than any other man of his gen
Grafton. As he was borne to the grave
prayers, such only as christians utter in
times of great sorrow, went forth from
millions of hearts. In no other time, in no
other country and among no other people
could such scenes have been witnessed as
those Of yesterday. The sorrow that was
expressed was genuine, and came from the
hearts of people who were more devoted to
the principles Of free government than those
who. by might Of numbers, overran their
land. Their devot ion to the memories of
the past, and to the leader who directed
them in the most trying period of their his
tory. entitle them to the respect, the world
over, of those who appreciate genuine 10y
atty to principle.
jefferson Davis was true representative
OF the southern people. He believed in the
cause in which he was called to lead, and he
never wavered in his belief He and his
people might have found it profitable to
kiss the hand that smote them, and acknowl-
edge that they were wrong. But neither
he, nor they, could be untrue to their prin-
cipleS.
The people Of the south yesterday spoke
from the heart, and impartial history will
say that jefferson Davis funeral was an
honest tribute to the memory of great and
good man, and to a just, though lost, cause.

AGAINST CHARITY BALLS.
A New Brunswick Priest Publishes a
Letter Concerning Them.

A New Brunswick Priest Publishes a
Letter Concerning Them.
The Rev. Father Bruins, rector of st.
Johns German Catholic Church, of New
Brunswick, has written this letter to the
FTedonidn of that city,
"The Young Mems German Catholic
Union will hold a ball on Monday, October
IA, in Turn Hall. LIDO hereby inform ali
Catholics of my parish that they must not
attend this ball for these %reasons:-
"First-Because charity balls are against
the teaching of the Catholic Church. The
following strong language against balls
of this kind was concurred in by all
Bishops assembled at the last Plenary
Council of Baltimore in 1851
we command that pastors do all in their
power to put a stop to the holding of these balls.
Council of Baltimore. Title tx. chap. v. II. 300,
"Second reason-No Catholic society
has a right to hold fairs, picnics. excur-
sions, ETC., without receiving permission
from the pastor of the parish, or the
Bishop of the Diocese, and in this in
stance, neither the Bishop nor the pastor
has been consulted. Fairs, picnics, eXcur-
sions, etc., may be held by obtaining per-
mission from both pastor and Bishop, but
neither pastor nor Bishop car sanction
the holding of charity balls.
"In conclusion | invite the parties who
organized this affair to read Ladies and
Gentlemen's Etiquette of the Best Soci-
ety. page 1906, where it says, Charity
balls are an abominable anomaly

HANDSOME NEW FLATS.

A Structure That Will Ornament the Cor
/ ner of Washington and Sussex Streets.
Where the old Presbyterian Church
stood for so many years at Washington
and Sussex streets there. is now rapidly
nearing completion a handsome apart
ment house.
When completed it will be one of the
handsomest structures in the lower part
of the city and will compare favorably
with the other fine buildings which are
being erected in that vicinity.
1t is being built by that public spirited
citizen Hugh r. Mckenzie and was de-
signed by E. Simon, the architect. 1t is
100 feet square, five stories in height and
will contain i've separate houses n a
store or the corner. Four of the houses
front on Washington street and one on
Sussex street.
The basement and first story are com
posed OF small blocks of rough hewn
stone, and the remainder of the structure
is of pressed brick. -Four cornices of
unique design relieve the. monotony of the
ordinary flat roofs. The two in the cen
tire bear the words ''Kingussie House"
the name which Mr.. Mckenzie has be-
slowed upon the new flats.
Each of the houses has an artistically
designed entrance composed of finely
carved pillars, which support a hand
somely formed Intel, while each of the
windows is capped with an attractive de-
sign in terra Gotta.
The house will contain in all forty-ive
apartments. They will all be well
lighted and aired. as a large air shaft ex-
tends down the centre of each house.
Each suite of apartments will be fur
nished in ash and be papered and deco
rated in a manner the magniicence of
which is not surpassed by any similar
building in the city. All the modern i'm
provements in plumbing will be fur
nished in each suite and the ventilation
and sanitary arrangements of the
Kingussie will be as nearly perfect as pos
sible.
There will be q large court in the centre
of the building which will afford ample
facilities for light and air. A number of
the apartments will lave the advantage
of looking out upon the park at Grand
and Washington streets. The new flats
will be ready for occupancy by Novem-
