An English syndicate worth $40, O0O,-

trio cars and electric lights and have
about completed seven furnaces.
Business buildings costing less than

Arrests by Telegraph.

If the publicity given to the case of
Mrs. Edith Sessions Upper wifi have
the effect ofputting a stop to arbitrary
arrests by police without variant of
law, it will not be without a gam to
the community It is is hard for the
average thief taker to underst
that the liberty of the citizen is sacred,
unless the processes of law have been
invoked to authorize him to restrain
it. Mrs. Upper has sued the Buffa-
10 Superintendent of Police, Martin
NORM, for $4,000 damages. The
facts appear to be that the lady left
Buffalo for Toronto last July to WIS.,
it relatives. On her arrival at To-
ronto she was arrested by the Cana
dian police on authority of a tele-
gram sent after her by NORM, and
was in custody some hours before OBJ
tanning her liberty by establishing
her identity to the satisfaction ofthe
police. She suffered illness in conse-
quence.
A telegram is not a warrant, and
policemen ought to be so advised.
They take the responsibility upon
themselves when they order arrests
arbitrarily under the impression,
probably, that they are little Russian
czars or Turkish sultans. No man
or woman should be arrested on the
authority of telegraphic dispatch,
except in case of extraordinary
emergency. In most cases it would
suffice to put the suspected under
surveillance until a warrant be re-
ceiV8d or ained.-From the Alba
ny Times.

He Was q contented Man.

The Ell Paso Herald prints this lit
tie story on the authority ofanothe r
paper about a local minister who re-
GENTLY preached at a camp meeting:
Alter the sermon the customary
invitation was given for all who
wanted to go to heaven to rise up.
All present rose to their feet except
one young man who sat pretty well
on the outskirts of the audience.
Those who desired to 60 to heaven
sat down. Then all who desired to
go to hell were requested to rise to
their feet, and the aforesaid young
man was eyed with a good deal OF
interest. Still he sat as quiet and
composed as a stone. The minister
went to him and asked him why he
did not rise in either instance:
oval" replied the husky son oftoil,

Eugenie's Valor in Cholera
Times.

The cholera scare that has affiict-
ed Europe to a degree has recalled an
incident of the time when Napoleon
III. was at the height OF his power.
The cholera prevailed to a frightful ex-
tent at Amiens, yet never a day pass
ed that the Empress did not visit the
hospitals to superintend, so far as
she could, the noble work of allaying
the sufferings of the stricken. One
morning a cure rushed into the ward
where the Empress was consoling d
dying man. "Oh, your Majesty"
cried the cure, 1.-TWO hours ago my vi
car was breakfasting with me and now
he is dead!"
Eugene smiled placidIy, "That is
WE'LL"
"Well?" echoed the cure, in amaze
ment.
Yes, it is WE'LL" she answered.
"When once cholera becomes as
violent as that it ceases"
The Empress was right; from that
day the plague abated. Eugenie's
valor did much to tortify the people
against the epidemic to which very
many, I am told, fell victims through
sheer fright alone.-Chicago News.
