STATE sEcTARIAN SCHOOLS.

AS they spake unto the people, the priests
came upon them, being sore troubled because
they taught the people.-Acts iv, i,2.
1t is an old fight, this fight between the
priest and the light, between priestcraft
and knowledge, between intelligence and
superstition, between real faith and a
Christ the same forces antagonized him
which antagonize the spread Of light and
truth today. The orthodox church in
his day cast him out because he was an
introducer of new light into the church
And the priests, whose power rested not
on their power to prophesy or ordination
of God primal, but upon some mere mat
ter Of ecclesiastical machinery-they
killed and stoned and cast out the proph-
cts, and it was done in and through the
ecclesiastical machinery Of the orthodox
church GLlCdyS So this old fight has
ever been.
These men have always endeavored to
bind the people, to control the teaching
Of the people, that they may know moth
ing but what they choose to inform
them. Therefore in the past they have
have had the power to do it in their ef-
forts to suppress knowledge These are
the men who in the Catholic church
tortured and burned men of science.
These are the men who in Protestant
Christianity, when they had power,
burned Servetus at the stake with the
same JUNCTION as the Catholics burned
Bruno in the public square. 1t is the
old fight Of priest and ecclesiastical ma
chinery in battle with light and knowl-
edge and intelligence.
So the solemn synod of South Carolina
met together and expelled Professor
Woodruff for teaching evolution in the
seminary and decided that the truth
had been discovered long ago, and that
any innovation was detrimental to it.
The same old fight. So in latter times
there have risen the teachers who have
expounded to us the word Of God-called
higher criticism-and this little genera
ton Of ecclesiastics rise and say the
whole foundations are being attacked.
The trouble is that the people are being
taught, and the priests are sore troubled
that is the little ecclesiastical ma
chimes. believe that all such methods
are simply tricks of priestcraft and have
nothing in the world to do with the real
questions of true religion.
THE FREE SCHOOL FUND.
We have our school questions con-
fronting us. The pope of Rome has sent
his delegate to this great nation, and in
a most remarkably wise manner and
with patriotic breadth Of view, which
seems TO me impossible TO such a man,
has decided that problem and in the only
possible way it ever will be decided
that is, in favor of the free school sys-
tenn; that there shall be no interfer-
ence with the building mp Of the public
school system OF America. 1t carried
dismay into the hearts Of this miserable

Russell Sage on the Gold Question.

NEW YORK, March 11.-Russell Sage
says: "The decision that has apparently
been arrived at by the treasury officials,
to use the 800, 900, 900 gold, commonly
called reserve, is an expedient that will
prove a temporary palliative, but will
not tend to ailay all fears on the none
tary question. These methods will have
tendency to quiet fears for the time
being, but the cause of the trouble will
not be removed until the Sherman bill
is repealed, and Europe will not buy our
stocks and bonds with confidence until
this measure is entirely out Of the way. y

Overhead Wires the Way.

The confagration az viewed from a
distance was grand, At close quarters
the scene was awful. While the Ames
building was burning there were re.
peated explosions like fireworks. The
wires were as usual in the way and
greatly impeded the work of the firemen.
William S. f. Rumrill, of Deans,
Chase Il Co., says II saw upon the para.
pet of the Ames building three men and
one woman clingirg to the stone work,
There was no such thing as getting a
ladder up to them, owing TO the net
work of wires. Finally they fell. Ev.
cry one OF the four were unconscious

Hawaii Commissioners Meet Gresham

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The inter-
view between Secretary Gresham and
n 'srs. Thurston and Castle, of the
l. Taiian annexation commission, at
the state department, was brief, last
ing only five or ten minutes. The sec
retary told the commissioners the treaty
had been withdrawn for consideration
and intimated that he might desire some
information from them regarding the
situation in Hawaii. Messrs. Thurston
and Castle stated that they hold them
selves at his disposal, and the interview
closed with notification by the secre-
tary that when he could get time to
consider the subject he would send for
them.

The Scramble for Life.

The usual avenues of escape were at
once cut off and then began scramble
for life which sickened beholders. The
panic-stricken inmates fed to windows
and roof. Some escaped by shining
down telegraph poles, others by leaping
into blankets and nets. Several jumped
to the pavement six or eight stories and
were terribly mangled and others, how
many cannot now be told, fell back into
the cauldron of flames or were overcome
by the dense black smoke which suffo-
Gated all who did not speedily escape.
The entire fire department was
called out and the departments
of Somerville, Cambridge, Newton,
Quincy and Brockton arrived later
by train, and aid was requested to be
in readiness from more distant cities.
Fortunately further help was not needed.
Vast crowds of people began at once to
flock to the scene and, as a matter of
precaution, Governor Russell ordered
two companies of militia under arms
and proceeded to the fire in person,
where he was Joined by Mayor Mat
thews. The fire spread rapidly from
building to building, and despite the
heroic efforts of the entire fire system of
Suffolk county was not controlled until
the whole square bounded by Essex on
the north Lincoln on the east, Tufts on
the south and Kingston on the west had
been leveled, also one building north of
Essex street, extending along Colum pia
street, three more on the east side of
Lincoln street and one corner of the
United States Hotel, south of Tufts
street, which corner contained tn EN-,

CLEVELAND CONFIRMS 1T.

No ofices for Those who We're Favored
During His Previous Administration.
WASHINGTON, March II. - Senators
and representatives who called on Presi-
lent Cleveland yesterday received con-
irmatory evidence that Mr.. Cleveland
ioes not intend to give offices to those
who had been favored under the pre-
Tious Democratic administration. Ex-
Representative Hemphill, of South Caro-
lima, called expressly for the purpose of
lscertaining whether the report were
true, and he received an affirmative
answer from Mr.. Cleveland. 1t is
hkely, of course, that exceptions will
be made in rare instances.
The cabinet meeting curtailed the
time usually given to callers, and their
number was consequently not so great
as it has been on the other days this
week. Hereafter the cabinet will meet
at II o'clock on Tuesdays and Fridays.
For an hour and half prior to the
assembling of the cabinet, Mr.. Cleve-
land saw large number of visitors, the
greater number composed of Office
seekers and their advocates, with a
sprinkling of Republicans and others
who came merely to pay their respects.
Ex-Governor Gray was one of the
earliest to appear, his purpose being to
pay the customary call of courtesy of a
new appointee.
Several candidates for positions under
the department of justice were among
the callers. SeL>to Palmer brought
with MIN Messrs. Trinton and Shut, of
Illinois, the former an applicant for the
United States m shalship for the south
ern district of ,nois, and the other a
candidate for the Office of district attor-
ney for the same district.

THE SAFEGUARD OF INTELLIGENCE.
America is the hope of the world, and
the hope of America is what you must
guard. Queen Victoria owns property
on Nassau street, besides thousands of
acres of land in your broad plains of the
west. King Humbert of Italy owns
property in America. Ask the real es-
tate broker, and you will find that every
crowned head of the great empires of the
old world hold property here, because
they know it is better than their own
banks in Europe. America is the hope
OF the world, and it rests on your guild
ance and patriotism and leadership.
Now listen: The hope of America is in
her free boys, her free schools, in the
amalgamation of this population. If you
do not 'amalgamate, how can you live?
You will have civil war over again.
That is why you had the last war. You
were provincial; you did not know one
another. If you educate people to stav
within their shells, at last there is a crash
that shakes the state. If you would in
sure this nation in the future, bring your
children into the great arena of tho
schoolroom Let Catholic look into the
face of Protestant and know one another,
and such strife is an impossibility. Your
republic is safe in intelligence, in reason,
in progress.
