American Difference 10 Things English.
Mr.. La Fargo, than whom there is no
higher authority, has pointed out that
the reason why there was originally no
provision for painted glass in the pro-
posed art exhibition at Chicago was
that there had been no provision for it
in European exhibitions, and that the
reason for that omission was because
it is an art not now actively cultivated
in Europe. But it is an art actively and
successfully cultivated in this country,
and this fact, which should have insured
the prominence of this department in
the exposition, came very near causing
its entire omission from the programme.
In politics and in mechanical inven-
ton we have attained to what may
be called national maturity; we have
an independent basis of achievement;
indeed sometimes the basis is of more
value than the achievement, as our ma
tional constitution is better than most Of
the laws that are made under it. In
oratory, too, we have a certain self con-
fdence, but in other arts we have abso-
lutely been sliding back as to self con-
fidence since Emerson's death until we
really speak with more Difference of the
London of Lang and Haggard and Oscar
Wilde than men showed twenty years
ago in speaking of the London Of Oar
win, Carlyle and Browning.
All the vast expenditure Of the Chi
cago exposition will be trivial invest
ment if it can only initiate a period
when we shall be little less colonial,
and shall at least put our own estimate
on our own birds, our own books and
our own men.-T. w. Higginson in Har.
pcr's Bazaar.

REMOVING THE DUTY.
Articles for the Worlds Fair to Be Ad-
mitted Free.

Articles for the Worlds Fair to Be Ad-
mitted Free.
Director General George R. Davis, OF the
Worlds Fair, was on the limited last even
ing going to Chicago. He had been to
Washington comforting with Secretary
Foster about the admission of number of
articles free of duty that will be used in
foreign exhibits and Will be returned
after the Fair is over. Mr.. Davis is partic-
ularly interested in such novelties as the
reproduction of Donegal village, q Turkish
mosque and a street in Cairo. The con-
tracts for these exhibits to cost many thou
sand dollars have been made. Some very
fine Turkish rugs will be imported for the
mosque, ON which there is a heavy
tariff, as there is also on the
materials to be used in making
the Cairo street. Mr.. Davis asked that the
duty be revoked on all imported articles
that will be returned. Mr. Foster issued
an order giving the Director General the
authority to use his discretion, and all
goods not to be sold in America and exhib-
tied at the Fair may be admitted free.
MI. Davis is not worried about the
cholera, and he thinks the New York
quarantine will keep it out of the country.
he says tnere is no cause 10r alarm. Mr.
Davis hopes that Congress this winter will
take up again the Sunday opening question.
He says there will be on an average 300, 900
strangers in Chicago every day during the
Fair. The churches of the city are not
large enough to provide for them. Mr..
Davis suggests that the art galleries and
the park should be opened on Sunday. The
managers will gladly furnish preaching for
the people in the choral hall. The idea is
to stop all machinery and close the other
buildings.

A large parade and impressive ceremonies
marked the dedication of the new St. Au-
gustine German Catholic Church Cemetery
in Shsler township yesterday afternoon.
The parade formed in front of the priest

lows: Chief Marshal Joseph Gerbsch and
so mounted aides, Arsenal Band, 200
uniformed knights, Bloomfield German
Band, 500 Sunday school children, the con-
eregation and several religious orders, the
Germania Band and 80 carriages, containing
the priests and invited guests. The parade
moved out Butler to Forty third street,
across the bridge and up through Millvale

st. Stanilaus Polish Church Cemetery.
The exercises at the cemetery were
opened with singing by the children, after

St. Augustine Church, preached from the
text, IA garden, and in the garden new
sepulchre." Rev. Father Hyacinth, Pro-
vincial of the Capuchians, who was dele
gated by the Bishop, conducted the dedica-
tion exercises, assisted by the Uniformed
knights.
The cemetery, which has an area of IS
acres, was purchased last January for 50, 500.
AS yet no person has been buried there, but
the ground has been leveled and laid off in
plots, and q sections house erected on it.

SIX TENENlENTS BURNED.

The Houses We're on St. Paul and Huron
Streets and We're Owned by Sankey
Bros.-The Loss Was $4,000 and the
Insurance $1,000.
Six tenement houses situated on st. Paul
and Huron streets, at the head of South
Eighteenth street, were totally destroyed
by fire last night. The buildings are near
the brick works of Sankey Bros and were
owned by them. The tenants are employees
of the works. The houses were occupied
by Charles Letter, Frank Davidson, Jacob
Hoffman, Harry Rice, and the other two by
Jack Now and his mother
About $50 last night Mrs. Hoffman went
upstairs, and found the upper part of the
house full of smoke. She could not tell
where it came from, and hesitated to give
an alarm. She waited until the flames
burst through the roof Before the alarm
could be sent in the fire had spread through
the upper stories of three houses, and was
rapidly approaching the others.
All the engine companies on the South
side responded, but owing to the steep hill
side on which the buildings were located
the engines could not get nearer than Plus
street. The water pressure was very weak
and even with the force of the engines
there was not enough in the pipes to make
q stream that could be thrown to the build
ings. In the meantime the fire had
reached the other three buildings.
Fully an hour elapsed before water could
be used to fight the progress of the fire.
Half an hour later the six houses were re-
duced to ashes. The dwellings on each side
caught several times, but the water pressure
was gotten in time to save them. One was
occupied by German family, and much of
their furniture and household goods was
damaged. The household goods belonging
to the families whose houses were burned
was saved by the aid of neighbors. The
property was valued at $4,000 and was in
sured for $4,000. The policy on the house
occupied by Mrs. Now was written Satur-
day, having run out four months previous.

THE MURDERER AT LARGE.

Joe Cent Not Captured-NO Trace of Him
Since Saturday Night-The Police Theory
"A Woman In the Case-The Murderer
May Commit Suicide.
Up until late hour last night Joseph
Cent, who stabbed his brother to death
Saturday evening. had not been appre-
hended. The police were searching for him
all night Saturday, all of yesterday and last
night. Detectives Coulson. Robinson,
Fitzgerald and McTighe were securing the
hills and small towns on the outskirts
of the city, while the other front,
office men were at work inside
the citv limits. Several clews were found
and followed out, but they all proved worth
less after careful investigation One state
ment to be investigated to-day was that
Cent on Saturday night had gone to the
foreman of the shop where he was en-
ployed, related what he had done and bor-
rowed $40, saving he would leave the city.
Cent was drunk at the time and had shaved
off his mustache. The police say that Cent
had S38, with which he could have placed
many miles between himself and this city
before daybreak yesterday.
Some of the detectives are confident Cent
is concealed somewhere in this city or AL
lePQeny. - SLTicL HdtCA ID bE'hS AePD VI
the haunts of the murderer. Twenty-six
towns were telegraphed descriptions of
Cent Saturday night, and, with the excel
lent picture of him published by THE
DISPATCH yesterday, the police say he will
have hard time getting far away. Pho
tographs are to be sent to the police of other
cities to-day.
The theory of woman in the case, limited
at yesterday, seems to be accepted by the
police as the cause of the murder. A num-
Der of stories have been told which seem to
Justify this belief The wife of Frank
Gent, who has been living apart from him
for some time, went to the Cent home on
Fourteenth street as soon as she heard of
the deed Saturday night, and has remained
with his body ever since. She is much
Younger than her husband was, and he was
Jealous of his brothers attentions to her.
Joe Cent is about her age. The remark
which caused Joe to attack Frank related
to her. Her maiden name was Kate An
derson, and since being separated from her
husband has been living with her brother in
Allegheny.
CENTS sister saws he will suicide as soon
as he learns that his brother is dead. The
Coroner's inquest will probably be post
poned for a few days in the hope Gent may
be captured.

DIR. Mercur's Apparatus to Determine Sus-
pected Cholera Cases.
DR.. W. H. Mercur returned from New
York yesterday with large fund of infor-
nation relative to cholera germs and their
development. He also brought few life
less germs along for the inspection of his
colleagues, Drs. NIatson and Taylor, who
will assist him in the meteorological e1-
animation of suspected cholera eases in this
city. The doctor purchased apparatus to the
value of $50. by the aid of which his work
will be carried on.
s'This may seem large sum to expend
for such purpose" said he, "but the city
will proba bly need the apparatus for more
than year to come. Having once gained
a fooIhold in this country the ch olera will
not be driven out in less than year. 1

'The bacillus must be fed and developed
in an incubator, kept at the heat of she hu-

bated, but by most complicated and deli
cate process. The cholera bacillus is not an
animal, IS many suppose, but vegetable
parasite. 1t grows, when properly han
died, like a beet or other vegetable, and
terminates with remarkable rapidity.

soon the couples occupied seats in the

About the time the train pulled out u big

one of the women, came up and struck one
Of the young fellows behind the ear. In a
iiffv both were on their feet and lively
fight followed. The Pittsburgers slugged
the theatrical man until he yelled for
mercy. Their names could not be learned.
