The Late Kings Career.
With William III dies the direct male
representation OF the great house OF
Orange. He was the son Of William IL.
but only connected collaterally with the

LONDON, Nov. 24--The O'Shea-Parnell
case was alluded 10 more or less decidedly
in Non Conformist pulpits ia London Sun
day. The general tone was severely critical
Of the evil practices which bring about di-
yorce, while the preachers also urged that
political leaders should be men of exem-
plary conduct in their private lives. The
most vigorous denunciation Of Mr.. Parnell
BY any Of these reverend gentlemen was
that indulged in by the noted Wesleyan
preacher, Price Hughes, who insisted that
the Irish statesman should resign, and
called upon Mr.. Gladstone and Cardinal
Manning, in the name Of England and
universal religion, to join in the demand.
One Minister Assaulted.
Mr.. Bannin, rector Of the Italian church
at Hatton Garden, took occasion in his
sermon Sunday morning to denounce Mr..
Parnell. In the midst Of mis- diatribe sew
eral Of the congregation arose and left the
church. Others shouted TO the rector,
Mind your own business and let politics
alone.' There was much confusion
While Mr. Bannin was leaving the church
after service he was hustled by a crowd
around the church, and received several
blows. He was finally escorted TO his
home by policemen.

THE Galveston News, referring to
the LIGHTS remark anent Powderly's
assertion that, 1.-The constitution is a
living lie" wants to know if Vhe LIGHT
has ever seen good republicans shot
gunned away from the polls. The
LIGHT, fortunately, is published in
southwest Texas, west of the black
belt of the state, and attends the polls
only in its own precinct. 1t therefore
sees nothing OF that intimidation
which is reported and sworn to in
the Congressional district of which
Galveston forms a part. The LIGHT
believes some things it has never
seen, and if it did not would stand a
mighty poor show of understanding q
good deal of which it is now pretty
positive, outside of the evidences Of
its own eyes. 1t is true the old adage
says, seeing is believing, but all the
same the LIGHT accepts testimony
and believes several things it has
never seen, among which may be
mentioned its belief that there is 6
town called Galveston somewhere il
southeast Texas.

A PALATIAL YACHT.

L
Building Boat that Shall Beat the
Crate of the World.
Philadelphia. Neafie & Levy, the
shipbuilders, have been awarded the
construct for the building of q steam
yacht for an unknown owner, whose
orders are to make her the most
palatial and the heetest vessel that
flies the American colors or the
flag of any other nation OF
the world. The floating
palaces owned by New York million
aires Will not compare with her in
any particular, and she is guaranteed
in point of speed, finish and eIe-
gance to exceed Gould's yacht Allan
ia, Vanderbilt's Alva or Astor's
Nourmahal under an IRON bound
guarantee made by the builders, to
the unknown owner.
The plans of the vessel and her
machinery were designed by J. Bes-
vor Webb, the marine architect, and
Neafie Il Levy were awarded the con-
tract in preference to all others
Camps bid having come in
one day too late for consider
alton. Other bidders were not
asked. 1t is the first attempt of the
above firm to build large steam
yacht, their engines having already
gained wide celebrity among yachts
men.
This floating palace will be 2l5 feet
on the keel, and will be built of steel
throughout, lighted with electricity,
and will have steam-steering gear
and ice manufacturing machines,
and everything to promote the COM
fort of the owner. She will have
triple-expansion engines and steel
boilers with the greatest amount of
CRATE surface to make steam and in
crease her speed without effort. The
yacht will cost not less than $3.50, 900,
not including her interior work
which will be extra, as well as other
machines needed not directly in the
line of her machinery.
AS the work progresses cash pay
ments will be made by the we'll
known banking house of DreXel,
Morgan & Co. who also refuse to give
any names. 1t is thought the owner
is some wealthy foreigner who wants
a vessel built in the United States,
as she can at any time change her
nationality, but thus far not even the
builders know who they are building
the vessel for.

LIVE AND LEARN.

1t Will De remembered by those
who take interest enough in such
things to remember, that when the
ordinance was passed granting right
of way to Fair grounds for rapid tran.
sit little over a year ago, that said
ordinance was vetoed by the mayor,
because it provided for a standard
broad gauge track. His honor short
ly afterward took a trip for his health,
and on his return from Kansas City
candidly acknowledged his error and
conceded, what the LIGHT had been
trying to convince him of for months,
that the rapid transit roads were
all standard gauge. His honor has
been taking another swing around
the circle and returns converted
to the necessities of a sewer system.
This time, however. taught prudence
by the lessons of the past, he intim-
ates that for two years members of
the city council have been consider
ing this thing and preparing to take
hold of 1t in connection with garbage
destruction. If Mayor Callaghan has
been considering sewers for two years
past with reference to a sewer system
for this city, he must have been con-
sidering it in his mind;
That deep, upfathomable mind
OF never failing skill,
Which leaves the town to go 1t blind
Yet works his sovereign will.
When the last vote for city bonds
was taken and it became so apparent
that any measure that the present
city administration might favor
would be unhesitatingly voted,
the LIGHT urged that now was
the acceptable time to bring forward
a sewer proposition, as the people
would unhesitatingly vote the re-
quired funds. And, now behold, only
a few short weeks have passed, and
his honor promises to bring the mat
ter before the city council at its next
regular meeting. For this let a pa
tent and long suffering city give
thanks. Our frantic joy over this an
Is somewhat sobered,
h 0wever, by recalling the history of
garbage furnaces in this city. More
than three years since, at the instance
of the city council, one of the best
that ever sat at that council
board, the late Col. Belknap, spent
at the east examining into
the question of garbage furnaces
and laid an exhaustive report
before the council, with plans
and propositions guaranteeing the
erection of the furnaces without cost
to the city, and their acceptance only
upon the condition of giving satisfac-
ton, according to stipulatiOns, which
the consumption of all
solid and liquid garbage. The LIGHT,
as usual, boDed the council for weeks
upon this subject but the garbage
furnaces are no nearer erection to-day
than they were three years since.
But it is live and learn. The press of
this city that has borne the burden
and heat of the years of inaction and
to public improvement can
we'll afford to smile at the assump-
tions of the present Soledad crowd,
who have come without effort into the
inheritance of public disposition for
improvement, for which the LIGHT
has labored, and not in vain for the
past eight years. The LIGHT is none
the less sensible of the need Observers,
Notwithstanding it is certain that
their construction depends solely up
on the will of the Mayor.
