Let him take time next Tuesday to help
secure new constitution. Milford
News and Advertiser
The comparison of the constitution
the fundamental law--to sn ordinary
farming implement in common use, is 8
good illustration OF the loose ideas which
prevail among certain class. II any
comparison could be made the constitu-
tion might more properly be compared to
the soil, which changes seldom or not at all,
and the statute laws to the pillow, which
is tie instrument by which the funda-
mental law may be changed as frequently
as may be required BY the people. The
crops may be altered, any new implement
may be used, but the soil, the basis Of
the law, remains the same. 1t Is the
dread Of this radical and unnecessary
change In the constitution by men who
do not understand the difference between
a constitution and the statute laws that
makes cautions men charY about calling
a convention.

~ blocks of business houses and dwelling,
of this city are in smolderipg ruins. The
fetal nnmber Of dwellings burned was $50
| The total loss is $500, 400. The total insur.
ance is unO5tainable. Many Of the burned
places have no insurance. Hundreds NJ
families are thrust upon their friends fos
accommodations. The fire started at 6:3o
O'Clock Saturday evening 81 the Iangakell
hotel barns, inst off Pine street, from some
unknown cause, and aided by strong
wind swept away ten blocks UP Pine street,
one Of the chief business streets Of the city.
Then, by sudden shift in the wind, the
hames were driven toward Terrace avenue,
one Of the finest residence streets in the
city, where they destroyed many houses. g
by O'Clock the fire had reached the
southern district of the city, where there
was more space between the houses. and
the firemen succeeded in considerably re.
ducing the progress Of the flames. The
Grand Rapids engines were put to work
as soon as they arrived
The scene during the progress of the fire
was one never to be forgotten. Men in
broadcloth labored side by side with work
lngmen III overalls against the common
enemy, and women in silks, with dia-
monds in their ears, clutched at their
treasures and dropped them in heaping
armfulls from their palatial houses, while
women in rags rushed frantieally from
their humble dwellings with what poor
treasures their slender means had afforded.
Among the more valuable structures
wiped out were the Pine Street house, the
Philadelphia block, Eckerman's drug store.
Matthew Wilson'S residence Sedgwick's
wholesale store, McMichael's shoe store
and the Langakell hotel
The 100000 court house was also de
stroyed but its public documents were
saved. Prisoners in the county iail. which
occupied the basement Of the court housA
were liberated. Several COWS and horses
were burned and little child, who was
sleeping in the Langakell hotel barns,
where the fire started, is missing. Among
the sad Incidents connected with the fire
was the death of Harry Stevens, assistant
postmaster, the son of Postmaster Stevens.
He was very i'll with pneumonia and the
flames made it necessary to remove him to
a place Of safety, and he died while being
carried through the streets.

As this dramatic fasco indicates that

at the Republican primary Of Saturday,

The Corner Stone of st. Joseph's Cath
Ollie Seminary Laid at Yonkers.
YoNKERs, n. Y, May 1s-At least sc, 900
people witnessed the ceremonies of laying
the corner stones of the new St. Joseph's
Catholic seminary on Valentine hill Sun
day. 1t was one of the grandest ecclesias-
teal demonstrations ever held in the coun-
ty and the largest in the state since the
dedicatory exercises of the great cathedral
in New York city. The corner stones We're
to be laid at 3 O'Clock, but it was nearly
$3.50 before Archbishop Corrigan, Arch
bishop Ryan and the priests and guests
reached the platform, owing to the dense
crowds which blocked the road for miles
and prevented their progress to the scene.
The programme opened with the anthem
"This is the Lords Day." which was fol-
lowed by the singing of "Ecce Saccerdos"
and "Veni Creator" The corner stone of
the main building was first laid and blessed
when a similar ceremony was performed
with the corner stone of the chapel. The
blessing Of the stones was conducted by
Archbishop Corrigan. The sermon was
delivered by Archbishop Ryan, of Phila-
delphia. The singing was by the chancel
choir of St. Patrick's cathedral, New York
under the direction Of Rev John A. Kell-
ner, assisted by the Catholic Saengerbund,
comprising four societies. A large num-
Der Of prelates, priests and distinguished
citizens from all parts Of the country were
present. The seminary will cost $500, 900.

"Men marry women every day" she

WHAT WILL THE HARVEST BET
It IS as easy to fOrstell the peach crop
as to determine the results Of the longest
session Of the Legislature. 1t is the
most remarkable session in other respects
than length that Delaware ever had.
II has proposed more measures, made
greater number and more radical changes
than were ever made by any other Lsgis-
lature. The alterations in the frame
work Of the administrative affairs have
been greater than were made by the con-
stitution Of 1881.
The Democratic majority have re-
deemed all Of the promises made by the
Democratic party and accorded ali Of the
reforms asked by the Republicans. 1t is
gratifying that the Morning News, a
Republican paper, can find no fault with
the work Of the Democratic majority.
The News says:
The General Assembly adjourned
without day on Saturday after a long
and fruitful session. II did great deal
