THE WEATHER.

st Paul is not now experiencing what
the ''oIdeSt inhabitant" wonld call really
cold weather. But, then, who ever heard
of an oldest inhabitant admitting that
anything modern could equal the prod
ucts of waybaek, from billiards. to
pumpkins? Of course we all know that
in the winter of '49-or was it the fall OF
'4S-it froZe so hard you could throw
rope into the air and climb up on 1t;
and, of course, we know that the pres
ent cold snap is simply sweltering
weather compared with the big spring
blizzard of 80. But still we don't go
frisking about town in linen busters
these days; and, with all due respect to
the oldest inhabitant, we observe that
he sits pretty close to the stove as he
spins out his veraciOuS "reminiscences.
We shrewdly suspect that the years
piling up have pressed the mercury of
pioneer freezes down further and fur
ther in the oldest Inhabitants estima-
tiOn. and that the present dozen or so
below zero is about as cold as he ever
cared to have it get. And, after all,
what is there to make less applicable

One Arrest Made OF q SuSpecCeu
DynamiteP.
DUBLIN, Dec. 27.-The government is
apparently acting upon the theory that
the recent explosion was the result OF a
conspiracy, and the police are making
active inquiries as to the recent course
of the physical forces faction. to
whose operations but little atten-
ton has lately been paid. So far
as James Stephens, head center
of the Fenian brotherhood, is concerned,
no suspicion exists that he has anything
now to do with plots or cOnspiracieS,
but it is intimated that some OF the
Younger advocates of physical force
have been very busy of late. The anti
Parnellites are throwing suspicion on
ParnelIites, and the latter assert that
no more reason exists for SuSpecting
them than for charging the crime to
nounced the aut ors OF the explosion
as enemies of Ireland.
A man named Kegans has been ar
rested at Nengah, County Tlpperary, ON
the charge of being connected with the
Dublin explosion. Kevans is stranger
to the townspeople, and is unable to
give a satisfactory account OF his recent
movements. Keyans is twenty-six
years of age. He admits that he
was in Dublin last week up to Sun
day morning. The arrest caused
great excitement in Nenegah. The po-
lice sergeant had been informed of the
arrival Of a suspicious-looking stranger,
hnd had followed Kevans from place to
place. Kevans saw that he was watched,
and was finally taken INTO custody. In

FROM BOURBONISNf TO BEL
IAMYISAf.

South Carolina offers a curious III
stance Of rushing from one extreme Of
governmental methods to the other.
From being the stronghold of cavalier
aristocracy it has gone over completely
to the "roundheads." From tenacious
clinging to old names and old institu-
tions it has taken radical departure
into state socialism. All the isms and
fads of communal government are being
exploited in South Carolina by Gov.
TILLMAN and his followers. Their lat
est essay is in the direction OF state con-
troll OF railroads. With the jerkwater
roads lying wholly within the state
boundaries this may be effected. but it
is bound to provea disastrous and costly
experiment. And, in the case of trunk
lines running through the state, there
Will be conflict between state and fed
eral authorities and regulations that
will cause no end of trouble and diff
Guilty. But, as sociological expert
ment. this revulsion of extreme BOuf-
bonism into rampant Bellamyism will
prove nationally interesting and in-
structive.

FATHER M'GLYNA'S RESTORA-
TION.

The significance of the restoration of
Father McGLYNN to the priesthood.
from which he was suspended by Arch
bishop CoRRIGAN five or SIX Years
ago and eXcOmmunicated by Rome, is
wider than. the mere fact that an UNI
frocked priest is rehablitated. This
will appear from simple marathon
of the facts. Father McGLYNN, the
beloved pastor of st. Stephens, in New
York city, was an early convert to the
economic views of HENRY GEohGE.
Daring Mr.. GEORGES famous canvass
for the mayoralty Of that city, Father
MCGLYNN took the field. speaking from
tie rOstrum and the cart-tail. Arch
bishop CoRRIGAN commanded him to
desist. The priest persisted i'll the ex-
ercise of what he said was his right and
his duty as an American citizen. He
was suspended, and ordered to Rome.
Refusing 10 recognize the right to sus-
pend him for doing what he felt he had
a right to do, he refused to 20 to Rome.
For this he was eXcommunicated. The
pope also disapproved of the economics
Of Mr.. GEORGE, TO which that gentle
man made an able, earnest and respect
full reply.
One of the acts which speedily fol-
lowed the arrival of Mgr. SAToLL1 in
this country was the restoration of
Father MCGLYNN to his former stand
ing in the church. That this was done
without any recantatOn of his political
views. or apology or promise to desist
from their advocacy. is evident from
this extract from all address by Father
MCGLYNN Monday evening in Cooper
Union, 10 an audience which filled that
capacious hall. He said:
Those of You who know me best know that
it was never my wish to leave those altars, to
depart from that sanctuary. But if. when
occasion offered, came upon this same plat
form to speak to my fellowman as brother,
to my feiloW-man as citizen, as man TO man,
it was always the paramount thought with
me that while exercising my rights and even
fulfilling my duties as man and brother and
citizen, even as priest, whether from the
secular platform or the tail of a cart or the
head of barrel. I still, as the priest of
Christ, might feel that no place was SO
meekly secular or so unholy in any part of
Gods world as not to be eminently fit to
preach to my brother men Of the fatherbood
Uf God and the brotherhood of men.
The facts carry their own comment.

BUDA PEsTH, Dec. 27.-The exposure
of the frauds in the department of edu-
cation and public instruction through
which that department lost 100000
forms was made in newspaper pub
lished at Grosswartin. This paper
affirms that two Of the leading officials
in the Trefort ministry discovered that
the money had been embeZZled. but
were afraid to expose the thefts owing
to the high positions held by the pa
rents of the embeZZlerS. lhe paper
itself refrains from giving the names OF
those WHO took the money. When Min

Count CZaky. vino learned of the en-
bezZlement. but who did not take any

Members of the government allege that
the 4,000.GG f1orins deficit was not
caused bv fraud. but WAS simple
shortage due to bad agricultural sea-
son. No one places any reliance III
this statement, the general belief being
strong that The shortage is due to no
other cause than embeZZlement, and
that the government is anxious 10 pro-
tect the embeZZlerS because OF the dis
grace that would attach TO certain high
families, should the dishonest officials
be prosecuted.

him that it was true, and, pressed for his
reasons, said that the Democrats were getting
to be free traders. They're gon' to make
