expected that one Of the vessels would be sent
In Guayra, but the orders for both go

that the State Department had become alarmed at the
absence OF news from Mr. scruggs the United states

additional vessels to the Concord and Kcarsarye, now
there.
Others interpreted the hurried orders meaning

AN IMPORTANT EVENT.

The opening OF the remodelcd rooms in
the old st. Mary's school building last
evening by the Young Mems Catholic As
sociation marks a notable epoch in the his
tory of that time honored parish. Many
people can remember when tho build
ing and the old church were as pretty and
commodious as any in this vicinity. Now
the old ediiice has given place to n modern
structure that equals any in tho state; a
new school building has been erected that
surpasses anything hereabouts, while the
old building has undergone magic trans
formation and become the homo Of an
organization that cannot fail to effect q
vast deal of good. What wonderful strides
have been madel And it all reflects an
overfiowing measure OF credit upon tho
good pastor and his assistants.

NEW INDUS TRIES.

That was an important communication
from Mr.. Conant which the Sewer Com
missioners presented to the City Council
last evening. The substance OF it was
that il the South WoodlaWn section was
severed, or sufficient guarantee given
that it would be, he believed that it would
result in the expenditure of half n million
dollars in new industries, dwelling
houses, etc. Mr.. Conant is a gentleman
who, in affairs like this, does not make
any rash statements. The City Council
would do well to give this matter It's inn
mediate attention.

LAW DISREGARDED.

In direct violation OF chapter of tho
city ordinances, the Republicans again
last evening attempted TO defy the law
and voted to appoint both Board and joint
committees.
Section of chapter OF the city ordin-
ances says '.there shall be annually APP
pointed Immediately after the organiza-
tion of the City Government the follow
ing joint standing committees who shall
hold their offices until the expiration OF
the current municipal year"
Those committees were named in Janu-
airy, and, under the ordinance above
quoted, they cannot be disturbed during
the year unless the ordinance Is amended
or repealed.
II is nothing now, however, for Rcpub-
licans to tramplc the law under foot
whenever IT interforcd with their projects.

RIVERS ON FIRE.

When "Michael strogoh" first appeared
sapient critics fell foul OF jules Verne for
the chapter in which he described the
flaming currents Of oil floating upon the
surface OF the great Russian river. They
claimed that the Frenohman had drawn
on his Imagination, and that the thing
was impossible. But nov wc have the
terrible scenes enacted in Pennsylvania
on n colossal scale, and the loss OF life
from the "rivors on n.o" is far greater
than any recorded by the ingenious Verne
in his novel. 80

UTAH AND RHODE ISLAND.

The special correspondent of the Journo,
at Minneapolis said yesterday that The
least applause was bestowed on Utah and
Rhode Island in he Convention. What
was the cause? DO they dare TO put
Rhode Island on a plane with the Nor
monte Territory OF Utah, or, holdl may
be this State, on the account OF the frc-
quency OF divorces, is really a lcgalized
Mormon community. Our Tip should
see to it that Rhode Island is better looked
after in future.
