WIRES RENDERED USELESS
A Blaze in the Bell Telephone
Office.

Last night, about 8 40 o'clock,
an alarm was rung in for fire sup
posed to be in the post Office. The
department responded promptly,
and when the firemen reached Mer+
chant street a dense volume of
smoke was seen coming from door
leading to the operating room of
the Bell Telephone Co. Two men
Immediately rushed upstairs with
extinguishers on their backs and
extinguished a blaze that might
have been disastrous. The trouble
was caused by the insulation on .
wire igniting. The fire rapidly
spread from wire to wire until the
covering on several hundred wires
was ablaze. The fire will interfere.
with the service of the company,
but it is expected that before night
fall the lines will be working again.

About Advertising.

1t has been truly said that an oc-
casional advertisement is like an
occasional dinner. Both bring de-
rangement. Continual regularity
in both is the rule of all successful
business men. And yet at times
the hurriedly snatched free lunch
is a boon and a great sustainer of
the inner man.-Ex.

A QUESTION OF vERACiTY.
Captains OF the HekIa and kormandie
Make Conflicting Sta ements.

NEW YORK, April l0.-Tbere is likely to
be a pretty wrangle between Captain
Thomson of the overdue Thingvalla line
steamship Hekla, which arrived late Satur-
day night with about 800 souls on board
and the captain Of the fast French liner
Normandie, who refused to take the
Danish boat in tow when requested TO do
so on March "a.
The Frenchman had asserted that he had
offered TO take the Hekla's passengers off,
but this statement was vehemently denied
yesterday by Captain Thomson, who de-
clared that the other had simply promised
To report him to his owners and had then
steamed away regardless OF the hundreds
OF lives which his act had left in serious
jeopardy.
On the other hand, 1t Is alleged that sew
enl of the Hekla's passengers say that
Captain Thomson after parting with the
Normandie had told them of that vessels
offer to take off his passengers. At all
events the National liner America which
turned back aud towed the Hekla TO
New York will come in for pretty sum
In the way of salvage.
Persons who ought TO know are Of the
opinion that the amount will be greatly in
excess of 100000, while some think that
the figure will even reach S250.0O0.

THE MAJORITY VOTE.

The absurdity and injustice OF our an.
tiquated majority system is conspi:uously
shown at every election. The Democratic
nominee for Governor has more votes than
his mpetitor, but his Anal success de-
penes upon the political complexion OF
the General Assembly, which seldom rep
re sents the wishes OF a majority of the
voters. These annual elections cost the
city OF Providence many thousands OF
doll ars, and they are constant incentive
to fraudulent counting.
Two OF the members of the present
House-one Democratic and the other a
Republican-werec counted In last Spring
by the Board OF Aldermen, contrary to the
returns OF the wardens. Our bye elections
are seldom a Just expression of popular
wishes. They rarely bring out full vote,
and are indicative Of popular fatigue
rather than OF popular opinion.
Outside OF Providence the law provides
for the holding over of the old delegation
after from one to three trials. Thus In
many cases men represent their munich
palities who have not received a single
vote. 1t is evident that the majority sys-
tenn Is a scheme to reverse the will OF the
majority rather than to obtain It's Just
expression.-[ providence Visitor.

a SERIOUS CHARGE.
A Prominent Physician Under Bonds Tor
Criminal Operation.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, April l0.-Jonathan
ID. 5. Smith. an officer Of the State Electric
Medical society, and a prominent city
physician, was arrested here charged with
attempting a criminal operation. He was
released under $4,000 bonds
DR. Smiths arrest IL the result OF an in
vestigation Of the death OF Agnes Kent
Olmstead Of Easton. who died at his house
two weeks ago. The doctor gave certif-
cate Of death from typhoid pneumonia,
and the body was buried. People in Eas-
ton. however, believed the woman's death
was due TO criminal operation
and demanded an autopsy, which resulted
in the discovery, IL is said, that death re-
suited from an operation.
Mrs Olmstead was simple county girl
year ago, when she met Lewis Olmstead
Of Bridgeport, and married him a few
weeks since DIR. Smith claims that the
girl took drugs and killed herself He said
she was nearly dead when she reached his
house, and he took her in, as any doctor
would have done.
Olmstead cannot be found. DIR. Smiths
