GOD BLESS ERIN.
The Casino Concert for the ParneIi
Defense Fund.

The Casino concert last evening was
not as numerously attended as the
occasion justified, nor as the merits CT
the musical performance entitled it to.
The occasion, to add to the Parnell
defense fund, was one which enlisted
the full sympathy of all lovers Of
national independence. No man out
side of America and no cause outside
OF our own home interests enlists SO
much interest as do the name of Par
nell and the cause of Irish home rule.
The concert had been labor of love
for weeks ON the part of the ladies and
gentlemen, who, under the active in
spiration of Mr.. Charles Schilling, had
enlisted themselves to aid the Parnell
fund. Over 500 tickets were sold be-
fore the doors were opened last night,
out the dark and threatening sky
promising a down pour at any moment
kept hundreds away.
The performance was most merito-
rious. The stage was artistically ar
ranged to add effect to the character
of the entertainment. Parnell's
picture was prominent feature of the
srage dressing and with the FLAX
wheel" an emblem of Ireland's
III "JtLaSlCu hCu
notice. The wings of the stage were.
draped with the American colors, in
which the portrait of Washington
was spicuously displayed.
The quality of the music rendered
was far above the ordinary, AMI elicit
ed very favorable comment. That it
was duly appreciated was very evil
dent from the repeated encores and
the boquets presented.
The programme consisted of thir-
teen numbers instrumental and vocal.
which were admirably rem dered, with
marked spirit and decidedly enliven-
ing effect. AS was to be expected,
Irish airs predominated and their en-
thusiastic reception showed how fully
alive the audience was to the occa-
sion and how deeply they had been
baptized into the spirit of "Old Erin u

THE CONSOLIDATION BILL.
A Correspondents Objections - I'll

Correspondents Objections - The
 Objectionable Nineteenth Section
 Gov. Harrison,s Speech at WOOd-
 stock.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER.
 Having again perused the now tabled Gin the Senate) act to consolidate the govern ment of the city and town of New Haven we cannot help commenting on section 19 of the act which we copy verbatim:
 'After December 1et, 1889, no town meet ing shall be held in the Town of New Haven except tor the election of officers"
 This means that the freenen living within the limits of the city of New Haven as well as those living in the rural districts of the town shall no longer enjoy the rights of a sovereign people. Think of it, you who have left your European homes to better your condition and have been made freemen of this commonwealth with the right to govern yourselves, and decide If you are ready to give up your power which has nothing above it except your God.
 This direct blow as the wedge already en. tered to destroy the town government of the State of Connecticut or in other words to centralize power and take it from the people is an unjust act on the part of a few who are now laboring in the legislature to deprive this community of it's power to reg. ulate it's own government as other towns by the constitution of the State have right to do. I cannot too strongly urge the import ance of the act not passing to other towns than New Haven, and again briefly repeat an extract from ex-Governor Henry B. Har- rison's speech at Woodstock. Conn.,: "The town is free democracy. It is indestructi. ble. The constitution confirms it's perpetual existence. The government of the State can not destroy it or merge it into any other town without the peoples consent"

THE JOHNSTOWN DISASTER.

A Cruel Story DenIed-Notes of the FIoOd-The G. A R. Post-The Meth Odist Church-A Rainfall Yesterday. JoHNsTowN, Pa., June 10.-The story pub lshed yesterday to the effect that the citizens of Woodvale are living on horse1esh cut from the dead carcasses lying along the shores of the Conemaugh river has created g perfect furore of indignation among the peo pie throughout the valley. The statement is positively denied.
 There is an abundance of supplies for ail present wants, and large number of loaded cars are near at hand. Last evening a badly wrecked residence blocking one of the principal streets in Kern quickly removed. The experiment, while satisfactory in some respects, came very near proving very disastrous to the surrounding property and will not be repeated.
 While the workmen were removing the debris from near the Merchants hotel yes- terdsy afternoon the body of horse stand ing erect, with saddle and bridle on, was unearthed.
 Alongside of the animal was the body of Blaine Zimmerman, young attorney, who had evidently been overtaken by the flood at the point where his body was discovered.
 The Grand Army posts of Johnstown re- port that out of a membership of 305 they have positive evidence of the loss of only five members. Four more are yet missing; nine- ty-nine of the G. A. R. lost everything they owned in the world.
 The Rev. Mir. Mcguire, pastor of the Meth odist Episcopal church, stated this morning that out of his congregation having a mem bership of 1,006, thus far only thirty-fve have been accounted for. He does not claim that all of the rest of his flock were swept away, but it was known that many of them were.
 Rain began falling at 4 o'clock this morn ing, and is now coming down in pour. The laborers are working right along, and will go continue.
 All of the laboring men who have worked on the wreck will be paid off on Wednesday, and as many of them as desire will be given employment by the State.
 This morning a detail of the 14th regiment was sent to Cambria City to bring out 200 Italians and compel them to go to work.
 They have been drawing rstions right along, but have refused to help at the wreck. They are now at work with 8 guard over them.
 At the Cowana hospital there are 8 few fe- male patients suffering from nervous pros tration. Late yesterday the ruins of the Catholic church and three other large build- ings near the Baltimore and Ohio passenger station were condemned and blown up by dynamite.
 The bodies recovered yesterday were all in such an advanced state of decomposition that it was necessary to pour disinfectants on the clothes before the workmen could handle them.

He was put under SIG, ,000 and his case will come up before grand jury June 10.
 DEATH OF PROMINENT wALLINGFoRD CITI-
 ZEN.
 George Simpson, who was born in the town of Atwater, Portage county, Ohio, in August, 1907, died June 8, 1889. His par ents had settled there some years before, but in consequence of his mothers illness they removed to Wallingford. Their Ohio farm was held until George arrived at his majori- ty. Soon after he married Grace Hall daughter of John Hall of Walltngford, and went to Ohio, thinking of working that farm, but on his arrival did not like the place and sold the farm. He bought anoth. CT in the town of New Haven, Huron county where he resided nearly thirty years. After having been engaged some time there in merchandising he sold out and removed te Wallingford, purchasing the Dwight North rop farm, where he has since resided. He has been an industrious, hard working man and respected citizen. Samuel Simpson, his younger brother, is the only survivor seven children.

 Yale plays Harvard again on the 22d in Cambridge, and on the Both, which is to be the final game in the championship series, at New Haven.
 The circus parade yesterday, contrary to it's custom of the past few years, passed by the campus, allowing the students and their friends an excellent chance to witness it. The event was not characterized by any of the elephants making Q break for the Green, as in days of yore, or 6 troop of Indians mad- dened by the students emulating them in the throat splitting war whoop. The chief fea- lure was the look of intense anxiety that pervaded the swarthy features of the wild Arabs when their steeds were prancing about under the fire of torpedoes. The story was in circulation one time that Barnum, vowing vengeance after the escapades of the students with his circus parade once upon a time, had donated the money for the new recitation nall for the express purpose of breaking up that congregating corner of students.

MYSTERIOUS DETERMINATIONS.

Gods ProVIdences-FlOOds and Fires Gods Hand and Government over
 AI-ThOughts From a Sermon by Dr. l. Munger.
 Concerning Rev. Dr. Munger's sermon
 Sunday morning last correspondent says:
 s'It was one of great interest and power, and 6
 place for summary of it is asked for. The
 text was Luke 13 4: On those upon whom
 the tower of Sloan fell, think ye that they
 were sinners above all that dwell in Jerusa- lem! Christ made use of public calamiuies to enforce and illustrate truth. A flood or confagration sweeps thousands out of ex- istence. Yet this is Gods world, and he | made it. He does not hide himself from view, but assumes the responsibility. Over- ! ruling providence and divine care cannot be ! rejected without drifting into atheism, of whatever rank or importance man may be in the scale of existence. History teaches us that, when the great de- sign or purpose of God is considered, man sinks out of sight. One great worker may be seen, he who creates and ordains all | things. It should be remembered that athe- | ism explains nothing; it is dreary and com fortless; it is the conclusion either of nor bid conscience or 8 conceited intellect; re- hgion brings God near and exalts him. Law cannot supply the place of love. It leaves the home without parent and the children l fatherless. There is no real distinction be- tween special and general provi- dences, and it is wiser to accept all things from God, difficult as it sometimes is to do so. This is painfully i'm pressed upon us by what has just happened in neighboring State. ''Is this the hand of Coda" The question seems hard and bitter, but we can say that if God is present with l us at one time he is at all times. Christian faith recognizes Gods presence and casts it. self on the bosom of the Father. Intellectu- ally it seems to be this. There are but two plans upon which God could have governed which we call natural laws, or by a series of If God had governed the world by the latter method matters would be more inexplicable and mysterious than they are now. Without system and order to depend on we would be on level with the animal creation. The there would be no incentive to higher devel- opment. The value and utility of natural laws depends on the fact that they are un- changeahls. It is mercy and kindness to us that they are so. That all are equally affected by these laws teaches us that we are or should be bound together by chain of sympathy, the sick and poor, the strong and weak ,old and young. Prayer is not useless. God can answer prayer without violation of law in ways numerous and mani fold.'
 ''The very law that moulds tear,
 And bids it triele from it's source,
 That law preserves the earth sphere. And guides the planets in their courSen

Dangerous Use of Strong Purgatiyes

Most pills, purgatives and Bitter Waters' Wmch act quickly upon the bowels, irritate ana otten oe strov the mucous coats of the stomach and bowels. Indeed their cathartic action Is directly caused by the irritation of the bowels, which they produce Their action should be soothing and stimulating. instead of irritating. A continued use of such stomach and bowels This often ends in dangerous disease. The use of the genuine imported Carlsbad Sprudel Salt is highly recommenoeo as an eperl- ent, laxative and duretic because it's action IS due solely to it's solvent and stimulating propertes It soothes and aIIays inflammation, and is therefore much preferable all strong purgatives and Bitter Waters.

THE BODY FOUND.

The Remains of Young Ives Found
 Floating or Pardec's Buoy-Sunday's
 CannOnade.
 The body of Henry Ives of 82 Pearl street, who was drowned eff the jetty last Monday while ont sailing with party of companions, was found about 9 o'clock yesterday morning of Pardee's buoy, near the spot where he went down, by George W. Smith who was cruising about in that vicinity. He imme- diately teok the body into Morris Cove, whence it was forwarded to Blair's under- taking establishment. The body was not badly decomposed when examined by Medical Examiner White, who gave a permit for burial. The funeral will be held from the residence of MT. and Mrs. Ives tomorrow. It is believed by many that the firing of a cannon Sunday together with the passage over the place yesterday morning of the steamer Erastus Corning caused the body to rise. The cannon used Sunday was placed in square ended flat boat belonging to "Washh Cunningham and was fired by J. H. Linsley, who has fired so many salutes from the piece in Fair Haven. One and quarter pounds of powder were used at each discharge and the firing was so heavy that the boat was ruined. The ems ployes at the clock shop have pooled together to purchase @ new boat to replace 1t. A party of friends was out in 6 steam launch assisting in the search.
