make it an asylum for the paupers,
criminals and the diseased-the refuse
Of Europe. The companies agents have
placarded Europe with glow
ing word-pictures Of the ease
and joy of life in America.
The men Of affairs across the water
have not been slow in taking advan-
tage of this to get rid Of tens Of thous-
ands Of undesirable inhabitants, and
every steamship has taken them in by
the hundreds, packing them away
in a manner that no stock
raiser would allow his cattle TO be
shipped. The steamship companies ask
no questions, the passage money is all
they are after, even though the passen-
ger be a pauper, criminal, anarchist, or
in the last stages of contagious and
deadly disease.
Notwithstanding the fact that they
add to the danger that threatens q
whole nation, these mercenary steam
ship companies still continue to bring
their cargoes Of filth and disease to our
shores, at 50 much q head.
America will not disayow that she is
an asylum for the oppressed" but
that does not mean that her ports are
sewer outlets for oil Europe.

FUMIGATION.

New Workers are complaining OF the
ruinous effects of the fumigation prac-
ticed in that city.
New York has, evidently, adopted a
poor system, for the right kind Of fumi-
CATION will hurt nothing except the dis
ease germs which it is intended to kill.
For years past, according to the
Washington Post, they have had at
New Orleans a system of fumigatiOn
which has been thoroughly effective as
against disease germs, without doing
the slightest harm even to the most
delicate fabrics The apparatus was
designed by DR.. Joseph Holt, long time
president Of the Louisiana board OF
health, and has been in successful Oper-
alton for the past ten or twelve years.
During that time there has been no yell
low fever in New Orleans, nor has any
one complained Of damage done TO mer-
chandise by the Holt method Of fumi-
CATION. There is a pointer in this for
the health officers of Wheeling.

ueresY Trials.

EDS. RECoRD-U MON: I think very
much harm often comes from trials for
heresy; but wish TO call your attention
to this, viz: a minister who comes into
the Presbyterian Church voluntarily sub
scribes to a statement of what the Script
ures teach. Now l ask, is not the only
honorable course for that man to pursue
when he changes his views, to withdraw
from the church?
In the celebrated Swing trial, the pros
ecutor said to Mr. Swing, 81 have no OBJ
lection to your believing what you please,
but you must not stay in the Presbyte-
rian Church and teach contrary to her
when he found himself out of accord
with the church, simply Withdrawn,
there would have been no trial.
Rev. l.. NJ. Colfelt, d. D., one of the
most popular preachers in Philadelphia,
has pursued this course within the last
few weeks. That is both honorable and
admirable.
Do not deal unfairly with the Presby-
terian Church. 1t has no objection to
your believing as you please, but if you
subscribe to its system of belief it has
the right to hold you in honor bound to
be true to that system as long as you are
member.
The difficulty in the Briggs case and
the Smith case is that they deny teaching
contrary to our system. No one, regrets
these trials more than do, but it seems
unfair to me for you to take the position
that the church is all wrong, and the men
who cause the trouble all right. Give the
church credit for an honest desire to be
.'nrst pure, then peaceable. GENTLE" etc.

GOOD CATCH
An Acrobatic Young Lady Caught by
an Athletic Youth.

An Acrobatic Young Lady Caught by
an Athletic Youth.
An accident which might easily have
resulted in serious consequences occurred
on X street, near Sixth, about O'Clock
last evening. A well-known society
young lady was driving a spirited horse
attached to a light buggy, when the
animal took fright at an electric car and
shied. At the same instant his feet slipped
on the iron rails of the car-track and he
fell full length upon the pavement.
Miss Flint had the firm hold of an ex-
perienced driver upon the lines, but she
was, of course, not prepared for the
horse's fall, and while she maintained
her grip upon the lines, she lost her posi-
ton in the buggy.
In order to be accurate, it is necessary
to admit that the young lady achieved a
very graceful somersault, clearing the
horse, which was struggling to rise, and,
describing splendid but thrilling aerial
feat, she landed like an acrobat in the
arms of young man who was crossing
the street short distance away.
The fortunate young gentleman was
John Labadie, who, although taken un-
awares never swerved. He made as GOOD
a catch as any member of the baseball
league could have done, and then po
litely conducted his new acquaintance
across the street to saIer place, unmind-
ful of the small boys who shouted. "Sicn
'em Jack; you're in itr' Good catch ~
and other well-meant but embarrassing
observations.
The horse was considerably frightened
at the unusual excitement he had created
and had to be removed from the buggy
and taken to a stable.

BEWILDERING WITCHERY.

n Unique Entertainment at Pythfan
Hall Last Night.
The entertainment and dance given at
Pythian Hall last night by the ladies of
the Unitarian Society called out large
attendance, and the affair was very sue
cessful one.
\ programme of classical and allie
gorical scenes was presented upon a tenn
porary stage, and dances in which witches
predominated were also features OF the
evening.
Professor Raymond was above par in
his rendering of 1.-The Broom-sticl
Train" by o. w. Holmes.
The witch scene from Macbeth then
followed, in which Mrs Smith, Mrs.
Quigley and Miss Hancock outdid Shake
speare in their impersonation of the
character. The scene was well pictured.
and the witches, as they danced about
the caldron to the tune of Bubble, bub-
bic, toll and trouble" did we'll, except
that they were visibly afraid OF the sheets
OF red fire which flashed from the
caldrOn.
Several other scenes were produced
with good effect, although the man in
charge of the calcium had weakness for
throwing pale green light upon the
aableauN, which showed the ghosts up 10
advantage, but was hard on tairer com
plexions.
saul before the woman of Endor'' was
taken by Mr.. Smith, while Mrs. Endor
was beautifully represented by Miss
boyd. Samuel could not have put in a
more weird and somber appearance than
did Albert Hart, and certainly he dis
paved uncommon talent in that line.
After the entertainment the hall was
cleared and dancing ensued, ten cents
being the penalty imposed for those de-

IT WAS THE DOG.
How Jerry Broggy and the Bradys
Managed to Get Into Fight.


Managed to Get Into Fight.
In the Police Court yesterday j. X. and
Ed. Brady were found guilty of disturb
ing the peace, also upon charges of bat
terry.
Their latest adventure, which resulted
in their trial yesterday for battery, was
fight with Jerry Broggy, a neighbor.
Broggy, it appears, had bill against the
Bradys, and went to collect it, taking his
dog along. also a brother-in-law named
Sweeney. When the quartet came to-
gether Broggy's dog jumped Brady's dog,
and a fight ensued, which eliminated in
Ed. Brady knocking Broggy down a
couple of times.
In the scrimmage a dangerous-looking
dirk-knife turned up, belonging to Ed.
Brady, which he happened" to have in
his coat pocket and dropped during the
fight.
Judgment in the case was postponed
until to-day.
Henry B. Holmes. found guilty some
days ago of disturbing the peace, under
eXtenuatlng circumstances, appeared for
judgment. which Judge Cravens decided
to suspend indefinitely.
Lafe Tomlin. found guilty of petty
larceny, was represented by his counsel,
who asked a new trial upon the ground
that John Kelly, an important witness in
the case, was absent from the city, and
that his testimony was very material.
The motion for a new trial and the in
PRODUCTION of other evidence were denied.
and Judge Crayens fined Tomlin $50.
His counsel appealed from the order
denying new trial, and viii take the
case to the Superior Court.
Tomlin was willing to pay the fine, but
earnestly protested his innocence, and
seemed very much affected by being
found guilty.
