NE sEPuLclER or THE SEA


Let my subject cheer all those who had
friends who have been buried at sea or in
our great American lakes. Which Of us
brought up on the Atlantic coast has not
had kindred or friend thus sepulehered ?
We had the useless horror Of thinking that
they were denied proper restingplace. We
said: "Oh, if they had lived to come
ashore and had then expiredi What an
alleviation Of our trouble it would have
been to put them in some beautiful family
plot, where we could have planted flowers
and trees over them" Why, God did bet
ter for them than we could have done for
them. They were let down into beautiful
gardens. Before they had reached the bot
tom they mad garlands about their brow.
In more elaborate and adorned place than
we could have afforded them they were
put away for the last slumber.

boys whose ship went down in our last

Judge Storm In the Charncter Of Poiiti-
cal schemer.
Judge Storm was holding court at
Mauch Chunk on Tuesday and about

afterwards that celebrated political
bum and sneak, Mickey Cassidy, his
tool and attorney, served upon Mr.
Craig paper giving notice Of Storms

tions to the certificate of nomination,
certifying that the Democratic conven-
tion held at Mauch Chunk on Septem.
Der 4tb, had nominated the Hon. Allen
Craig for President Judge. This paper,
served upon Mr.. Craig, was signed by
Judge Storm aud sworn to before Mr..
Watkins, the prothonotary,on on Tuesday
morning. As soon as the paper had
been served, Storm and Cassidy left
town upon the Lehigh Valley train.
The certificate of Mr. Craig was filed
at Harrisburg October 2nd., and upon
the same day Mr.. Storm filed a similar
certificate from Monroe county. Neither
Of these certificates of nomination pur-
ported to be from the entire District
but only from the respective counties
Tuesday was the last day for filing
objections to certificates of nomina.
tion at Harrisburg, and as the law re,
quires that objections to certificates OF
nomination must be served upon the
parties before they can be filed al
Harrisburg, the evident purpose Of the
hurry on the part of Judge Storm tc
get out Of Court and leave town, was
to prevent Mr.. Craig serving objection.
to Mr.. Storms certificate from Monroe
county upon him in time to afterwards
reach Harrisburg on Tuesday.
This action of Mr. Storm can have
no effect upon the nomination papers
SO numerously signed by citizens oil
Carbon county and filed by Mr.. Craig
Ar. Craig's name will be printed upou
the ticket. The only purpose of Mr.
Storm, by his actioI., can be to prevent
if possible, the name of Mr.. Craig frou
being placed upon the regular Demo
cratic ticket in Carbon county and hav
ing his own name retained upon tn,
regular Democratic ticket in Monro,
county. This is a political trick un
worthy Of candidate for the office o.
Judge and to which Mr. Craig was un
willing TO stoop.
The same objections apply to Nj
Storms certificate of nomination 70

Mr. Craig was well aware of thssl
objections aud also Of some materia
defects in the nomination papers file,
by Mr.. Storm but he was unwilling /
resort to any political tricks or attemp
any unfair advantage in a contest TO
the judicial office.
John b. Storm has proven himsel

Many Business Houses aud Dwellings
wiped out by New York Fire.
NEW YORK, Oct le.-One Of the most
destructive fires this city has seen since the
great Crystal Palace fire of 1888 occurred
last evening The fire extended from st.
Raphaelis Roman Catholic church on For
tieth street west of Tenth avenue, to the
north side of Forty-second street. The
losses will amount to over S2,OOO,OOO.
The fire was discovered at $40 p. m. by
a watchman employed by William Camp
bell g. Co., wholesale manufacturers OF
wall papers, at 5l2 to 5ls West Forty-sec-
ond street and sos to 5l2 West Forty-hrst
street. The fire started in the boiler house
and had gained great headway before it
was discovered. 1t spread to the adjoining
building, occupied by NevinS & Haviland,
also wall paper manufacturers, on Tenth
avenue and Forty-second street Both
firms are entirely burned out, and the hre
quickly worked its way 10 surrounding
buildings.
When the fire started there were in the
Campbsll factory four men who were
working over time They were fHehard
Stegers, James Bambrick John Brill aud
man whose name is not known. Whether
they escaped with their lives is not known
for Sexton, the watchmRn, was overcome
while attempting TO warn them. There
were many narrow escapes from death.
The widest excitement prevailed among
the tenants in the many tenements neai
by. They ran from their homes loaded
down with such effects as they could carr
away, but the houses were consumed 81
quickly that they could save but little
although they had ample time TO saw
