The Bangor News. after the fashion of the
New York Mail and Express, has begun to
use scripture texts as headlines. We are
bound to say that while this practice in the
Mail and Express is inspired by deep re-
hgious sentiment which wells up in the bo-
som OF the editor of that paper. in the News,
1t seems to be inspired chiefly by the discov-
cry that the scriptures furnish very appropri-
ate headlines for almost every kind of an
Item which is likely to find its way into the
newspaper, and therefore can be used to re-
lieye the strain on the intellect of the headline
maker, Thus, over the column of weddings
rs the text from Isaiah, "The BRIDE
rejoiceth over the bride" while over
.nietic column is the text from the same
prophet, "They shall run and not weary.

death rate prevailing in our cities be account

we recognize the force of the suggestion and

The fire alarm telegraph of this city is not
what it should be. and there is no use in dis
guising the fact that 1t is going on from bad
to worse. There was time when o mixed
alarm was rare occurrence, but nowadays
they are all mixed. and people hardly know
which way to go, or whether to go at ALL The
fault of all this does not appear to lie with
the superintendent. He is competent man
and does the best he can with the means at
his Command. The machinery operating the
system is to blame for the trouble. The Of
fee apparatus has been in use since the sys-
TEN was established and is to say the least,
obsolete. The bell strikers, especially those
on the st. Stephens. First Parish and Will
liston are worn and do not register the bIews
as they are given, going by fits and starts as
it were, and breaking the numbers up in the
wrong places. New non-interferance boxes.
and Office machinery are needed and the
strikers ought to be repaired. 1t Is to be
hoped that the city government will attend
to this matter before disastrous confagra-
tion occurs as the result of the neglect.

THE PASSING SHOW.
Finished Entertainment by the Charlotte
Thompson Company.

A Finished Entertainment by the Charlotte
Thompson Company.
Jane Eyre, interpreted by the Char
lotte Thompson company, drew out q
fair crowd to the opera house last night.
The entertainment was a finished one in
every respect. The play is a dramatiza
ton of Charlotte Bronte' $ great romance
of the same name. Charlotte Thompson
presented the title role, with q
thorough appreciation of the
spirit of the character, and with
that simplicity of action and manner and
avoidance of rhetorical straining which
mark the great actress and which are so
peculiarly essential to the proper presen-
tation of the weIl-known character which
Miss Thompson essayed. The support
was so even and so competent through
out that to mention particular artists
would be to insinuate a weakness in 9TH
ers that did not exist. The parts were
all artisticalIy carried.

OH, AGONY!
There VIII bs No Baseball Game in
Fort Worth on Saturday.
Other Notes.

The official schedule of the Texas base
ball league, as arranged in tabular form
by Secretary Adrian Nj. Jones ana Pres
ident Joseph Seinsheimer has been re-
ceived in Fort Worth
1t plays mischief with the Joyous eX-
pectation entertained by local admirers
Of the game that the opening series
in North Texas would be played
in Fort Worth. The schedule distinctly
AYERS that Fort Worth shall play Dallas
at Dallas on March 90 and 80, next Sat-
urday and Sunday. On April and
Dallas will be IN Fort Worth, after which
Fort Worth goes to Waco, Austin, Gal
weston, Houston, Dallas, to Fort Worth
again on April 10 and 20 to PLAY Dallas.
These last named days are Saturday and
Sunday.
The Fort Worth people did not like
this arrangement at first. They declared
they would not accept 1t. But they
slept on it, and conceived a scheme
whereby they may greatly benefit by
complying with it. So they go to Dallas
on Saturday.
Chicago will not be able to get game
here on Saturday under this arrange
ment.
An excursion train, one fare for the
round trip, will run over to Dallas on
Sunday morning, leaving the Union de-
pot at 1880 and holding at Dallas until
the game is over.
Fogarty is making the boys
go through their PAGES in
good shape every day. Each
afternoon competitive mines are
drawn up, and a regular game gone
through. Crowds numbering up in the
hundreds congregate to watch the play
and to criticize the players. They find
very little to criticize. Fort Worth
starts the season of 1890 with the best
team she ever had at the opening of
season; and it is calculated that next
Saturday night the sky to the east Of
Fort Worth will wear carmIne hue
emblematio of the CORY work done over in
that direction during the day by the
Fort Worth team.

Mr.. Jones gave a beautiful and I'M
pressive glimpse into his past life of pow
erty and temptation. He was called to
preach when first converted. Days of
great poverty came. He soon realized
that he must either do great quantities
of work or do work of extra quality, so
he chose quantity. The preachers re-
ceived some hard raps for their blue
Mondays. He related the story of Mr..
Whiteteld, who when getting run down
with work was told by his physician,
that four hours preaching every day
and six hours on Sunday was all he was
able to do. Why. said Mr.. White
field, do you want me to rust to death.
Brethren, let's pitch IN and do better
work and more of it than we ever did in
our lives. Once we had all we had to eat
on the table and sat down to eat it. At
ter dinner I went out to cut wood, fo-
getting there was nothing to cook. l
said: Wife, l have done my duty; if
God wants US to, we will starve, and call
it typhoid fever.
''In about two hours wagon drove up
and we had more to eat than we ever had
before or since.

ary, and they did not say, 'Sam Jones is
preaching for money 1 then got S240,
then $500. Nobody rehearsed the lie
that preached for money. l now get
more than any preacher in this country.

has ruined many 4 poor preacher. If
her husband wants to go TO prayer meet

thing, but she can go to the theater. I

He then related an incident of
three wicked men being converted
through the prayers of their wives.
