The funeral OF Senator Stanford, who
died at his California home on the 2lst,
was a very imposing affair. The services
were a mixture Of Episcopal and Uni
tartan.
The Methodist church has decided
that to boycott the Worlds Fair, as the
Christian church has done, is not the
proper thing. They will simply cover
their exhibits on Sunday, and let their
people look at the remainder of the
show.
The three Chicago anarchists, Fielden,
Neebe and Schwab, who remained in the
Joliet prison, were pardoned out Mon

trial.
The British battleship Victoria was
sunk by the Camperdown, ram OF its
own fleet, while maneuvering IN the
Mediterranean sea, and about 400 men

Here is q question for Mckinley to
scratch his head over during the cam.
psign: They are piping natural gas from
Canada across to Buffalo, and the Buf-
falo gas companies seriously insist that
it is subject to duty under the mineral
clause OF the tariff law. They are so
earnest about it that q case has been
taken to the treasury department for
decision. Canada will probably retaliate
by taxing the iron nerve OF our bank
cashiers who emigrate TO that country.

SAGINAW, Mich. May 22.-The great
fire of yesterday afternoon was got I'M
der control at s o'clock, having burned
east as far as Weadock avenue. So far
as learned only one life was lost that of
John Clark, employed in Nc JlellAnd's
file factory, who was burned to death in
front OF his own house. A fireman
named cNalley was quite severely
burned.
There will be many cases Of distress,
bat the great losses are distribu ted
among people comparatively well to do.
The heaviest loss is that OF e. German,
which foots up to S35O,0O0 and throws
$50 men out of en- ployment.
During the progress OF the fl 70 the ex-
element was intense, with groups gath
cred on the sidewalks. The burning of
Germain's immense planning mill was
rather peculiar, and leads TO the opinion
that the fire was of incendiary origin.
No one can be found who saw the fire a |.
its first start in the dismantled sample
and camp mill. Moreover, witnesses of
the original fire claim to have seen the
fire start on the east side at about the
same time. But the strangest thing in
connection with the whole 10 tier is that
the German factory FIRE should have
started at point mile from the
flames, especially when the wind was
blowing the flames in an opposite direc-
ton.

BROOKLYN, May 22.-The incubus of
debt which has hung over the Brooklyn
Tabernacle for many months has been re-
moved and the much mooted question Of
the Rev. DIR. Talmage's resignation from
his 24 years passionate was etfectually set
tied in the negative. This new aspect of
affairs was brought about by the payment
ofciaims representing an aggregate of about
1900 on the basis of % cents on the dollar.
The creditors uniformly expressed their
satisfaction with the arrangement reached
on this basis. Dr. Talmage really was the
largest contributor III the whole matter.
In addition to his check for $4,000, he gave
fully $4,000 toward the settlement. For
one claim which he held against the taber-
nacle of $1,000 for money advanced, he ac-
copied a check for 81 to make the settle
ment legal.
