DiSraeIi's Primrose,
London Spectator.

LONDON spectator.
Lord Beaconsfield'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 i'll
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 Beaconsfield'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.

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
a trade or profession that may stand
their friend in the future. A good
dressmaker or milliner need never Suf-
fer for lack of means; competent art
list or physician can utilize her gifts to
advantage, if necessary; typewriting is
easily acquired. and woman who can
make a good loaf of bread, a crisp roll
or first-class pastry need never know
the want of a dollar.

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 we're 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
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
cut; Jennie Friedman. sixteen, Shout
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 Maxim, 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 a 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, Maxim 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 2:95
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, LaWreDcev1lle, Pa.
Child of Mrs. FARRELL, of Butler.
Mrs. DUFF, an old lady, residence I'M
known.
The wounded as far as known are:
Ex-Mayor LYON, Of Pittsburg seriously in
the shoulder.
Capt LOWER, of Pittsburg, head badly cut.
ID. 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 unOOtainable
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.

Red Hair and the Pale Horse.

Red hair is point, and strong one
at that, against man when he attempts

the Savannah medical examiner for

SIT seems strange to most men when |
tell this" he continued, "but the facts
at hand in the main Offices of the insur-
ance companies show that the risk is
greater upon persons whose hair is of
that color than others. They seem to be
disposed toward consumption or other
lung troubles. As a result examiners
pay especial attention to them. Even
when they show not the slightest trace
of possible pulmonary complaint they
often develop its worst form in COM
paratively short time. 1t is not an in
tallible rule, of course, that red hair
means lungs predispOsed to disease, but
it is so often the case that the insurer
feels justified in exercising unusual
precautions in reference to that class of

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 16.-The APP
pointment of a high ecclesiastical tri-
bunal by the pope for the Roman Cath
Ollie 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
United States is concerned, for adjudi-
cation, and that the tribunal consists of
Cardinal Gibbons, of Baltimore; Arch
bishop Ryan, of Philadelphia. and Arch
bishop COrrigan, of New York. A
prominent priest of tine archdiocese,
who did not desire his name used, when
questioned on the matter said:
"That such q court has been constituted by
Rome, and consists of his eminence Car.
dinal Gibbons, Archbishop Ryan and Arch
bishop Corrigan, do not think there is any
ested in a case, then the senior archbishop
next takes his place-that is the
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 these 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. am 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. | do not see
how she can. l think that the hope is that
the decisions will be SO conspicuously just
that no one will be tempted to complain
of it,

GLANDERED HORSES.

An Epidemic in Chicago's Most
PopuIous Suburb.
CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-There is excite
ment in Lakeview owing to the break
ing out of CHAMBERS in the stables of the
Lincoln Ice company. The disease is
spreading among the horses rapidly and
it has already been necessary to shoot
seventeen of them. The veterinary
surgeons have so far been powerless to
check the epidemic, and the health de-
partment and police have been notified.
There are fears that the disease has
spread to, some horses outside of these
stables. The great horse barns of the
North Chicago Street Railroad company
are located only short distance from
the ice company's stables, and should
the epidemic find Judgment there, there
is no knowing how far it would spread.

WANTS TO BE SENATOR.
The Northern Pacific Attorney at

Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Aug. leone of the
first maneuvers in the battle for the
United States senatorship was devel-

that Col w. F. Sanders had resigned
the attorneyship of the Northern Pacific
Railway company, which he has held
for many years. The colonel
has long been regarded as a
leader in the Republican party of
Montana and was candidate for dele
gate to congress three years ago. The
fact of his being counsel for a great
railway corporation was used against
him with effect. 1t was proposed to
nominate him for delegate to the con-
stitutional convention which is just clos
ing its labors, but he realized that his
corporation connection would be an OBJ
lection to his election, and that should
he be elected it would weaken his intiu-
ence in the convention. His resigna-
ton now is a political declaration of his
