Sad Rehearsal.
SCHOOL GIRLS PREPARING FOR
CHRISTMAS CANTATA

Rage.

Are the Victims of the Fire Fiends
Rage.
DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 20.-Sixteen
girls were rehearsing Christmas can
tata at the 'Tilden school last night.
Their costumes were of light cotton
gauze, trimmed with cotton batting.
Bessie Seely had a wand in her hand.
1t became ignited. The other girls
gathered around her to extinguish the
flames and they were communicated to
their dresses. The children ran from
the room. Several of them were caught
by workmen and rolled in the mud, but
assistance came too late for some.
Jennie Lankshear had all her cloth
ing but her shoes burned. She died in
great agony.
1t transpires that three other victims
were so badly burned that they will
die.
LATER-The dead are Jennie Lank-
shear and Bertha Moody. The dying
are Bessie Bamford, Nellie Westgate
and Lucy Renshaw. Eleven are in a
critical condition.

To the SpeIlingt Glass.

Stand up ye spoilers, now, and spell:
Spell phenakistoscopea and kneIl;
Or tnke some simple word as chilly,
Or gauger and the garden lily.
To spell such words as syllogism,
And lAchrymOse and syncronism,
And pentateuch and taccharine,
Apochrypha and eeladine,
Lactiferous and cectity,
Lejune and homeopathy,
Paralysis and chloroform,
Rhinoceros and pachyderm,
Metempsychosis, gherkins, basque,
Is certainly no easy ia SIX.
Kaleidoscope and Tennessee,
Kamkchatka and dispensAry,
Diphthong and erysipelas,
And etiquette and sassafrass,
Infalliblean ptyalism,
Allopathy and rheumatism.
And cataclysm and beleAguer,
Twelfth, eighteenth, rendezvous, intriguer,
And hosts of other words are found
On English and on classic ground.
Thus Behring Straits and Mlchaelmas,
Thermopylae, c Cord1lleras,
Suite, hemurrhage, Jalap and Havana,
Cinquefoil and lpeCacuanha,
And Rappahannock, Shenandoah,
And Schuylkill, and thousand more,
Are words some prime good spoilers miss.
In dictionary lands like this;
Norneed one think himself scroyle,
II some of these his efforts foil.
Nor deem himself undone forever,
To miss the name of either river,
The Dnieper, Seine or Guadalquivir.

Postmaster General Wanamaker
Asks q COnundrum.

Mr.. Wanamaker, by his present pri-
vate secretary, has asked number of
public men a curious conundrum:-
Why should not both parties discard
all their insincere professions for the
Civil Service law and have the patriot
ism to go back to the old system under
which it was inquired simply whether
man was honest, capable, and faith
full to the constitution?
While this noble conundrum is being
answered we will ask the Postmater
General one:-Why do you appoint
colored postmasters in the South and
withdraw the appointments when the
people threaten to stop trading with
your Philadelphia shop?
And when he has answered that here
is another one for, Mr.. Wanamaker:-
Why don't you appoint colored post
masters in Northern towns and villiag-
es? r. s. V. Pm Y Heroltl.
