A CHEERING OUTLOOK FOR HON.
EST MONEY.

1t now seems certain that the Will
son bill, favoring repeal of the pur-
chasing clause of the Sherman law,
will pass the House next Monday, re-
free silver men and that the majority
will be from % to 40.
The Senate will show a stubborn
resistance, however, and every inch
of vantage ground will be bitterly
contested, but that the Voorhees, bill
will finally pass is conceded by some
of its most determined opponents.
Either of these bills will accomplish
the desired results and meet the needs
of the nation.
Unconditional repeal will mean a
clearing up of the clouded skies which
have dimmed the financial horizon
for the past two months and renewed
confidence, which will beget business
prosperity, will soon return to us.
Mr.. William H. Ruby, Commits
sioner of immigration at Baltimore,
has had his salary increased from $500
to 81, 800 per year, at the recommen-
dation of Commissioner of Immigra-
ton Stump. This is the same salary
as paid the Commissioners at the
ports of New York and San Francisco,
although there is "a larger lumber of
immigrants landed at Baltimore than
either of the other two. We congrat-
ulate brother Ruby upon his increas-
ed prosperity.

responsible ard compelling SO far
as they can the removal of the
snow.
The plan which has been in op-
Grafton here does not procure clear
walks in all cases and is obviously
defective. The dependence is up
on an ordinance which. has been in
force during many years, which
only accomplishes a portion of
what it was designed to do. The
talk of placing citizens in the lock
up because their f1agstones are not
cleaned is bosh and primitive
The only adequate remedy is
for the city to clean the walks that
are neglected and charge up the
cost with the addition of some
penalty against the property. The
charter gives the City Council
power to do this, and it is the only
way that walks can be kept SHOW
eled and clear of snow along their
whole length. Something of this
kind ought to be done, and His
Honor the Mayor and the City
Council would do well to consider
it and see if we cannot have clean
sidewalks all over town from this
time forward.

Our Postmaster's Predicament.

All Passaic was thrown into a
state of sympathetic astonishment
last Monday at the news of de-
ficiency in the postmaster's ac-
countsand Mr.. McGrew's sudden
disappearance while the inspectors
were examining his vouchers. The
Shortage amounts to only a trife
over one thousand dollars, and is
believed to be due to an error in
the sale of stamps more than two
years ago, and there are many
friends in Passaic who would
have made up the amount at once,
had he remained at his post. Mr..
McGrew was prominent in political
and social circles in Passaic and
he and his family are highly es-
teemed by all who knew them.
The deficiency was made UP by
the bondsmen on Tuesday, (Mr
McGrew having returned voultar-
lily on Monday and petition for
his reinstatement was at once pre-
pared, and forwarded to Washing
ton. Those to whom the facts
have been made known are con-
vinced of Mr.. .McGrew s innocence.
For the sake of himselfand his
excellent family we hope the pc
tition for his reinstatement will be
granted.

SENATOR JOHN E. KENNA.
He Dies at Washington After a Long
and Painful Illness

Senator John f. Kenna, of West Virginia,
died at Washington about 3 o'clock few
mornings ago. of heart disease. from which
he had been, for some years. an acute suf-
ferer, SO much SO that for long intervals. he
had been compelled to abaud on his duties as
Senator and to forego all mental exertion.
Two summers ago, with view Of diverting
his mind from his physical ailments, he es-
tablished an amateur boat builders shop
and busted himself in the mechanical OPP
GRAFTON of constructing boat. He partially
recovered and resumed his seat in the Sem
ate and made one speech, which was re-
markable, both for its length and its vigor,
but soon suffered relapse from which he
never rallied. His sufferings during the last
few months Of his life from heart spasms
were so poignant that to himself as well as
to his family, death must have been looked
upon as almost welcome.
Mr.. Kenna was born in 1913, was conse-
quently forty-five years of age-the young
est man in the United States Senate. His
birthplace was Valcoulon Va. since incor-
porated into West Virginia. He worked on
a farm until the outbreak of the Civil War,
when he entered the Confederate Army as a
private, and fou ,ht through to tn. end. He
afterward studied and practiced law until
elected to Congress. H } served six years in
the lower House, and then in 1888 was
ceed Henry G Davis. His term of service
would have expired in 1885.
Mr.. Kenna's Washington residence was on
Capitol Hill. at 130 B street, N. E., and it
was there he die 1. He leaves wife and six
children, four boys and two girls. The old
est of t1e children is about seventeen, and
the youngest boy just five years old.

Respect Your Teachers.

Lift your hat reverent1y when
you pass the teacher of the pri1n

of the Republic. She takes the
bantling fresh from the home nest
full of pouts and passions-an un-

own mother admits that she sends
him to school to get rid of him
The lady who knows her business
takes whole carload of these an
archists, one of whom, single hand
ed and alone, is more than match
for their parents, and at once puts
them in a way of being useful and
upright citizens. AT what expense
of toll, patience and soul WEAKNESS.
Lift your hat to her.

FATAL GAS EXPLOSION.
Three Persons Were Killed and Four
Were Badly Injured.

Inrec PERSONS We're Killed and Four
Were Badly Injured.
By an explosion Of gas at Pittsburg, Penn,
the house 1910 Sarah street, South Side,
was wrecked. three persons killed and sew
sral injured. The list of killed is as follows:
Thomas Dovsy, aged thirty-five, ironworker:
Sophia Dovey, aged thirty-three; Mary
Dovey, aged two years. The injured were:
William Dovey. aged seven, burned aud
hurt BY bricks; taken to South Side Hos
pital; William Harris, ironworker, severely
burned; Mrs. Harris. hurt by falling wall:
child of Mrs. Harris, burned and severely
bruised
The house was jointly occupied by the
families OF Thomas Dovey and William Har-
ris. The latter family occupied three rooms
on the third floor. Harris goes to work at
z O'Clock. He arose shortly after 6, leaving
his wife and child in bed, and taking the
scuttle In one hand and lighted lamp in the
other. started down stairs to the cellar for
coal. Harris reached the bottom steps, when
suddenly the very air seemed turned to fire,
which, for a moment, blinded him and
caused intense pain. At the same time he
felt himself caught up and hurled half way
up the steps, while his lighted lamp was
shattered against q post
The neighborhood was shaken by the
terrific explosion, and tho few persons on
Cne Stroet saw Cne mouse tOtter for moment
then the roof fell in, followed by the right
wall. The upper foor was crushed in and
fell, carrying it to the first, which held, and
this alone saved Harris's life. Meanwhile
the harvest of death had been awful. for
the Dovey family was wiped out of ex-.
istence, save the young son.
The second floor, the brick wall. and the
roof simply crushed the ceiling as though it
was paper, and sleeping calmly in their
beds, Thomas Dovey, his wife and the child
in the cradle by their SIDE were wakened
only to be crushed and buried in the ruins.
A policeman passing sent in an alarm at
once, and soon large force of men was
placed at work to rescue the imprisoned in
mates. Mrs. Harris and her child were
found easily and taken out. They were cut
and badly frightened. Then Harris was
taken out easly, but it took twenty live
minutes to dig to where the Doveys were
imprisoned. They were alive when reached,
but died as they were being taken out.
There was neither natural or illuminating
gas in the house. and it is supposed that the
gas leaked into the cellar from one of the
large mains on the street. The loss is $780,

The Cold Spell.

The extremely cold weather is
in some respects blessing. It
doubtless destroys many of the
germs of disease, and this guaran-
tees more healthy condition of
the atmosphere not only at present,
but for months to come. The
damp, slushy, negative weather in
recent years, during the winter
months, has encouraged certain
forms of disease, notably the grip
and kindred affections, and it is a
reasonable hope that if the present
cold spell is prolonged, there will
be few complaints of grip for a
number of years.

NEARLY 1000 LOST.
Many Hundreds of People Burned In
Temple on a Chinese Holiday.

A Canton tChina) corrsspon lent sends this
account of a terrible disaster in country
town about fifty miles from Canton, which
resulted in the loss of nearly 20)0 lives. A
band of robbers ma lie raid on the village
of Kan Lii, in the Shin Hing district. They
first levied tribute Of several thous and
taels on the priests of the tsmple.
The latter had just received large offer
ings from the people who were celebrating
holiday with q dramatic entertainment
under big shed temporarily erected in
front of the temple. The angry robbers
applied the torches TO thi S shed, and the
people in panic rushed into the temple for
refuge.
The main entran cs of the temple, which
was of wood, caught fire from the fierce
heat of the burning shed, and over 140C
men, women and children were either burned,
smothered, or trampled under foot. Most of
the fat alities resulted from suffocatioD, as
strong wind drove the smoke into the
temple
At the time of writing the roll Of missing
numbered $40. and it may be that some of
these were burned beyond recognition. The
disaster is the worst that has occurred in
south China for several years.

of the author of the bill which has
been introduced in the Senate, pro-
hibiting the assemblage of ten or
more men, bearing arms, for the
purpose of drilling, unless they are
called together by militia or civil
officer, it is bad bill, and is, we
believe, unconstitutional, inasmuch
as it would abridge the right of
the citizen to own and bear arms.
If enacted into a law this bill
would disband every independent
military organization, and would
compel such civic organizations as
the Knight Templars, Knights of
Pythias, etc, to discard their
