AN exchange boasts of having intro
duced the system of interviewing large
bodies of men, and thus getting a con-
sensus of opinion. A column in the New
York Journal, and copied from that paper
into others, is taken up by reported inter-
views with Mrs. Flynn father, and Jay
Gould s son. and others intimately con-
neCted with the families, as to the truth
of their reported engagement, tend to
cloud the glory OF such an achievement.
Mr.. Could and Mrs Flynn in individual
affairs are private citizens, and on what
ground newspapers claim any right to
deavor to ferret out such matters as has
always been held as sacred, is hard to
define. Because man has been suo-
cessful fnanceer, and because woman
ignorant of business and finding compli-
cations she cannot master should seek the
best assistance, are no reasons for gossip,
nor do they afford any excuse for an in
trusion where intrusion is insult. Cues
tons that intimate friends scarce venture
to ask, but rather wait for frank conf
dence, become insulting when asked for
the purpose of ministering to idle Curl
osity. And a paper that favors such
methods and caters to a perverted taste
is putting into print what men are so
ready to condemn in the mouth of an idle

YESTERDAYS FIRES.
Disaster-Cremated in a Mine-A
Fierce Blaze at Dallas.
Five Men Burned in a Mine.

HURLEY, WIS. March l9.-By a fire
raging in the Germania mine FIVE men
were burned to death.
THE FIRE DISASTROUS ONE
HURLEY, WIS, March ia great
fire Is raging in Germania, and threatens
heavy loss of property. All efforts to
stay the flames have proven unsuccessful
to this afternoon. 1t was about mid
night last night when the fire was dis
covered in No. 2 shaft, at the third
level. An alarm was quickly given to
the men at work in the mine, but in
spite of their efforts to escape, FIVE of
the men at work between the fifth and
sixth levels, in the same shaft, were cut
off. The men are James Thomas,
his son James, Hugh Waller,
jimmy Sullivan and William Banks, all
miners. The fire burned fierceiy, and so
found its way to the surface and de-
stroyed the shaft house and threatened
the engine and boiler house. The entire
timberiug of the shaft and rooms in that
part of the mine will doubtless be de-
stroyed AS soon as 1t became known
that several men were in the burning
shaft searching parties were organized
and sent into the mine to rescue the miss
ing men or find their bodies Waller
came to the surface once and returned TO
look for his companions, and there is no
doubt he suffocated and fell down the
shaft. The bodies of Thomas and his son
were found shortly before noon on the
fourth level near No. shaft. Could
they have gone twenty-five feet further
they would have been saved. The loss SO
far will reach about 500, 900.

will reach about S., 900 on building and
furniture.

LONDON, March 19.-The Berlin correspondent
of the News says the story that Prince Bismarck
declined to attend the emperorin the evening is
simply refut ed by the fact that the emperor vis-
tied Bismarck that very evening. It is reported
that the emperor was annoyed at Bismarck for
interviewing Win3th orst without consulting him.
can state il as certain that Bismarck did not
intend to resign at present because he wished to
avoid the impression that the elections caused
him to resign. He intended to make a great po-
itical speech at the opening of the
reichstsg and to await the chance
for an impressive exit from the political
scene. Several German reigning princes tried
to mediate. Bismarck is in excellent spirits.

AN IMPERATIVE NEED.

The rapid suburban extension of this
city brings prominently into view neoes-
sity created by a growth that is enlarg-
ing the bounds of habitation in every
direction. This necessity Is for quick
transit. A few years since a one-mule
ty minutes in travelling from the court
house to the depot, sufficed; but now the
same distance Is gone over in five min
utes. 4 few years since man was CON-
tent to walk TO his home, even if it were
at the outer limit of the city's bounds;
but now on suburban heights men are
building houses, and the question of
transit Is the one that interests the pur-
chaser. There is no need for expert
mentation. What is needed is the latest
improvements that guarantee safety and
speed, and offer to residents along the
line a schedule that shall prevent I'M
necessary waste of time. Time becomes
valuable as towns grow, and the man
who can wait on q street corner half an
who have no time for waiting. The duty
of street railway companies is to care
fully select the best systems, provide for
the travel over their lines; and that of
the municipal authorities is TO leGislate
in matters pertaining TO routes without
partisanship or political ends. exercising
such surveillance only as shall protect
the city's interests and the peoples
lives and properties. That the people of
Fort Worth are ready for rapid transit
does not admit of question, and the
projectors of the various additions must
bear in mind that the success of their in
vestments hinges on the best means OF
transit from business centers to suburban
homes

DALLAS, TEX, March 19.-Shortly
before IL o'clock tonight fire broke
out in the rear of large frame building
on the corner of Wood and Browier
streets. The FIRE, which seems to have
originated in a small room used as SER
wants quarters, soon spread to the main
building, as well as to the
next building west. When the
fire department. arrived on the
scene both buildings were burning fierce
ly, and it seemed as if, owing to a brisk
breeze, the adjoining buildings on the
south and west would go as well as the
two then burning. After nearly an hour
of hard fighting with the disadvantage of
a weak water pressure, the flames were
confined to the first two buildings, which
were badly damaged.
The building in the rear of
which the fire started is owned by Frank
Field. 1t was unoccupied all save the
servant s quarters, in which q negress
