DOUBLE TINE.

3 DeSnamite Manufacturer Who Has =
Government Contract Working Night
and Day.
CHICAGO, January 11.-Mortimer NJ.
Roberts Of this city, who has the con-
tract to furnish all the dynamite cart
ridges for the United States army and
navy said to-day that his factory which
is located at Dubuque has put on a dou-
bic force of wOrkmen and is working
night and day turning out their pro-
duct,
Not less than two thousand men have
been engaged for the work, and it is
stated that the payments made by the
Government will foot up into hundreds
Of thousands. The prospect of war
with Chile is assumed TO be the cause
for pushing the manufacture. Until a
year ago the United States purchased
all her cartridges Of England.

MORE TROUBLE
On Account OF the Dismissal of Father
Pikulski


PIrrsRUEG, PA, January 1.-THE
trouble at the st. Adelbert Polish
church, on the South Side, over the
dismissal of Father PlkulSki assumed
more serious aspect to-day, and threat
ems at any time TO break out in a regu-
lar riot.
Several times the crowd around the
parish house became so large and boiS-
ferrous that it was necessary to call on
the police 20 clear the street. Every
time Fathers Miskiewiecz and Kalasin-
ski showed themselves to the crowd
they were hooted and Kissed, while
Father Pl6ulskrs appearance was the
signal for wild cheering.
Father MiskiewiecZ, says the trouble
was all caused by jealousy and diSobe-
dience on the part OF his late assistant.
He also denied the story that Father
Kalasinski spoke disparagingly Of his
predecessor at yesterdays meeting.
This evening the police arrested two
of the ringleaderS. John Kolwiski and
John Snovaski, for disturbing the peace,
and they were locked up. The arrests
have had wholesome effect and the
mob has retired. No more trouble is
expected.

ITS GRAVITY.
4 Naval Officer Speak, of the Importance
of the Chilean Incident.

4 Naval Officer Speak, of the Importance
of the Chilean Incident.
WASHINGTON, D. c., January IA
naval officer of long experience and
great prominence said this afternoon:
1.-THE public should be acquainted
with the real gravity Of the controversy
with Chile. The investigation at San
Francisco is developing very startling
facts, and it is well for US TO appreciate
the situation thoroughly. The evidence
taken out there shows conclusiyely TO
my mind that the assault on the sailors
was q prearranged affair, and that the
INQUIRY into the case at Valparaiso was
a mere farce.
THAT inquiry, it is said, sdeveloped
the fact that the riot occurred between
the hours Of 4 and 6 in the afternoon,
and it was alleged that American sail
ors were drunk. Now happen to know,
as a matter Of long experience, that
sailors do not get drunk so early in the
day.
ut may seem an odd or even a jok-
ing observation, but it is none the less
an important fact with strong bearing
on the case, that sailors on shore lib
erty do not get drunk before midnight.
They never in a body become intoxi-
Gated early in the evening. The more
hear from other than Chilean sources
of information, the more thoroughly
convinced | am that the assault was
premeditated and that it was intended
as an insult to this Government.
Itswas ascertained this afternoon be-
yond the possibility of a doubt that the
Navy Department has, since the re-
ceipt Of the first news of the San Fran
cisco inquiry, redoubled its preparations
for trouble. The activity in the navy
yard in this city has increased, and the
Navy Department is pushing every
means of saving time.

THE STRIKE SITUATION.
The Arkansas Pass Strike Liable to Tie Up
Other Lines

OIncT k1lncb.
SAN ANToNIA, Ten, January IL
The strike situation looks gloomier
than ever. The failure of the confer
ence between theN management OF the
Arkansas Pass Railroad and the repre-
sentatives of the strikers to accomplish
satisfactory results, has tended to wild
en- the breach, and the belief is general
that If in twenty-four hours some agree
ment is not reached, the employees OF
the other roads centering here, who
have pledged the strikers support, will
tie up these roads rather than handle
coal or freight of the Arkansas Pass.
The situation is gradually tending
towards that point where either war or
peace must prevail. The railways cent
ering here have notified their employees
that under the law, railway companies
are compelled to handle each others
business, and the employees have noti-
fed the company that they will not
handle the Arkansas Pass supplies or
freight.

not unkind or ungentlemanly, at least,
they do no: mean to be; they are mere
ly tiioughtless and are governed by
an erroneous custom which might be
better hOnored in the breach than in
the observance. They are there, per
haps, as members of a society which
inculcates every virtue and the allevia-
ton of every suffering. In their great
kindness men like these often watch
out the stars by the bed of pain and
sickness, and they do well but, says
an old adage: AN ounce of proven
ton is worth pound of cure If it is
virtue to alleviate sickness, then TO
prevent sickness is a greater virtue,
and certainly some sickness might be
prevented If men would refrain from
post-prandial smoke. Besides, the in-
diligence in general smoking on an oc-
casion so untimely must detract from
the good influence of society whose
chief conversion is brotherly love
We have great love and respect for
organizations like these to which we
have alluded and We predict that they
cannot much longer afford to indulge
in the way indicated. The reform may
never come in your day, brethren, or
in ours, but it will come all the sooner
if you and We point out the evil in
timely, kindly words.

Post-prandial Smoke.

We wonder what kind Of al idea
prevailed when the custom was estab-
l!shed that Immediately after society
dinners, or dinners on great occasions,
the proper thing to do is TO fumigate
tie dining-halls by post-prandial
smoke, and, that to that end, all who
will, must puff away at cigar, and all
who are present must endure the smoke
without wry FACET they cam
1t is supposed that etiquette is
founded on human kindness and that
good manners, wherever brought into
requisition, never ignore the natural
comfort and enjoyment of those who
may be present. On an ordinary post
prandial occasion nine-tenths, perhaps,
Of those present indulge in smoking /;
but how about the one-tenth who do
not? Have they no rights which the
nine-tenths are bound to respect? On
such an occasion the non-smoker has
at best sorry time of it. He dislikes
to be prudish, and so he does the best
he can. If he is strong, he may be
able to stay to the end, though every
moment is made uncomfortable by the
sitting and nauseating tobacco smoke
which he is obliged to inhale. If he
is less strong, be will be compelled to
leave the room, suffering from head
ache or nausea; or if he has learned
previously, in the school of experience,
the bad results which follow an hour
or less spent in an atmosphere thus
poisoned, he may absent himself alto
gslher, however much he would like to
be present, if he were assured that the
air would be pure.

For the Ellsworth Americana
Charitable and Correctional Work at the
Worlds Fair.


PORTLAND, Me-, Dec. s, 1892.
Although efforts have been made here.
tofore to show what the world Is doing in
charitable and penal affairs it has remained
for the Columbian Commission to produce
in separate and comprehensive bureau
an exhibit which will represent the effort
that is making and illustrate the present
facilities for dealing with detectives, de-
pendents and delinquents.
At first thought, an exhibition of this
nature, which will be an adequate repre-
sentation of charities and correction,
seems an impossiblity, for there is so
much that is impossible and intangible In
philanthropic work. But 1t is believed
that with the assistance of all who are
interested in matters charitable and peno-
logical, whether because Of official posi-
ton. or individual inclination, or business
occupation, an exhibit will be collected
which will be stimuative and instructive
to those already in the work, and interest
ing and suggestive to the general public.
II Is very utsiraUlt tudt the ulNlslOn OF
Liberal Arts under the head of hospitals,
homes, charities, etc, should have at the
Worlds Fair good exhibit at Maine.
Charitable societies of all kinds are re-
quested to exhibit by sending complete
set of reports substantially bound: also
copies OF its publications: scrap-books
giving forms In use by the society, etc.
etc. Individual institutions either chart
table, correctional or penal are requested
TO exhibit by charts giving statistics, etc.
by architectural plans of buildings: by
photographs: by a complete set of re-
ports of the institution, etc.
Steps should be Immediately taken by
those societies wishing TO be represented
