NSDALE.

Some funny things have been said and
written about the fever epidemic. In the
valley column OF Pawtucket paper last
evening appeared wonderful screed. 1t
was probably contributed by "a lover Of
good health and immunity from conta-
gion." Most people are lovers OF good
health.
The contributor said that Mr.. Jordan,
who has been examining the houses in the
OLD village, "was pleased to learn" that
the laws OF health were being violated,
and that there was lamentable "lack of
proper sanitary arrangements" People
would not have supposed that Mr.. Jordan
clapped his hands in glee at the sight of
fostering "pest holes" 1t Will surprise
the villagers to know that Mr.. Jordan
danced with Joy upon the discovery OF
disease breeding spots in taS vicinity OF
his own home.
Then again, who would mot marvel at
the spectacle OF Mr.. Jordan bringing the
landlords (the Lonsdale Company to
terms" and forcing "them to have some
respect for their tenants" When one
stops tn consider that Mr.. Jordan is an
employe OF the Lonsdale Company and Is
dependent on that corporation for a liv-
ing while he remains In the village, the
situation is particularly striking. The
storytelling slower of good health" Is
evidently trifie off his information base.

.LONSDALE'S EPIDEMIC
The Infected Houses Are
Guaranteed.
SOME NEW CASES REPORTED
Nearly All the Sunday Schools Will Be
Closed Tomorrow.

In Lonsdale new cases are being added
TO the list OF patients afflicted with scar
let fever every day. One Is assailed on
all sides with the odor OF disinfectants,
and the steps taken by the authorities a
few days ago toward absting nuisances
are beginning to show effects. quar-
antine was ordered placed on the houses
where any Of the inmates were suffering
from the trouble, and the members OF
families where there were cases and who
were at work In the mills were ordered
home to remain till the patients had been
pronounced out OF danger.
But this did not amount to anything az
far as quarantine was corncered, for
heads of families sent from work in the
shops mingled with other people on the
streets and allowed their children who
were not sick to mingle with others. The
Lincoln Town Council detailed yesterday
an officer to maintain a more strict quar-
antine on the houses where there are
cases, and TO impress on the minds Of the
people the provisions OF the statute re-
quiriDg them to report any new cases that
may arise in their households to the
Town Council. The Sunday schools OF
the Episcopal and Baptist churchs will be
closed Sunday on account of the preva-
lence of the fever.

Will Archer, Polk Hill, Ed Guyson and
Ellen Fantal, all negroes, aud the
latter a woman, prisoners confined IN the
Jail at Carrollton, Pickens county, Ala
were shot to death by mob of masked
men. During the present week the mill
and ginhouse Of J. r. Woods was burned.
The negroes were arrested and cOufined In
the Carrollton jail. The preliminary In
vestigaton was in progress, but had not
been concluded.
On Thursday night the sheriff was
called on in his room in the Jail bull ding,
and told that parties had u prisoner whom
they had arrested aud wanted to turn over
to him. The sheriff came down from his
room and unlocked the Jail door. He
found himself in the hands Of disguised
mob. who demanded of him the keys to
the Cell where the risoners were confined.
This request was urged upon the sheriff
by the glistening barrels of 100 Winches-
ters.
After the officer was overpowered, the
mob quickly made their way TO the cells
Of the prisoners, and through the iron
bars the barrels Of the Winchesters were
placed, and from every muzzle came n
dozen balls In seconds time five hu-
man beings had been cruelty butchered
and their quivering bodies lay in blood
which ran in streams across the floor. The
mob then quietly dispersed

GAS MAIN BROKEN.
Central Avenue Sewer Causes More Excl

Central Avenue Sewer Causes More Excite.
ment ON the NSw.
The locality at the corner OF Central
avenue and Middle street had fearful
stencil OF gas at an early hour last even
ing, which caused neighbors in the vioin-
iiy TO close windows and the smell was
unpleasa nj to pedestrians. Workmen at
the 20 foot shaft OF the immense sewer soon
learned that six-inch gas main was
broken and that the gas in escaping had
taken fire. There was danger OF the
sheathing taking fire and caving i'm the
sides OF the shaft. The gas burning freely
sending forth large flame which
lighted up the big ditch for
some distance. Matters became
serious, and Hose was sent for, and
played on the burning planks, while a
man from the gas companies office
arrived an shut of the gas. For long
time people gathered to witness the
smoking planks and inspected what
might have proved serious accident.

Another Daggett Communication.

Editor OF the Tribune.
was much amused at an Article that
appeared few days since In the Times,
wherein 1t was stated that a citizen of
| South street had been to the Daggett
farm and got "into mud hole" with the
result OF covering his boots with mire
which he proposes to show to the Board
OF Aldermen.
Now would mildly suggest better
course for him to pursue, which might
enable him to heal his lacerated feelings
and at the same time improve his financial
condition. Anyone must admit that any
person who cannot get around in 2C1-
acre lot without getting his feet into a
mud hole must haye pretty big feet and,
OF course, must take away a large amount
OF soil In his boots which cover said feet.
Consequently, instead of filling the Al
dermanic room with such an amount of
good fertilizing material, he might con-
tract with the Dunnell trustees to deliver
| said soil upon their barren side-hill lot of
eleven acres, which now has not fertility
enough to raise a blade Of grass, but for
which said Dunnell trustees want the
| city to pay them the modest sum of thirty
| thousand dollars, or eight thousand
| dollars more than Is asked for
the entire Daggett farm and
| donations, amounting to 200 acres
He could still further utilize those large
boots by disposing OF them for a bridge
across the main city sewer (Pawtucket
river), or for sewerage basins, to the
honorable gentleman whose brilliant
intellect first conceived such ideas.
He could also utilize those large feet by
affording place where the hens couIS
roost, or In locating mining claims In the
Far West; and there are thousand and
| one other uses where such large feet could
be put to advantage.
could not help thinking that the gen
tleman's experience at the Daggett farm
was OF character similar to that one we
used to read of in Mother Goose's Melo-
dies about the man who was so wondrous
wise that he jump into a bramble bush
and scratched out both his eyes. A.

A French PrelIte's Opinions Concerning the
Nations Troubles.

PARIS, Sept. l6.-Bishop Fava Of
Grenoble delivered remarkable ora
tion at General De Mirabel's funeral. He
denounced English Free Ma sons unmeas-
uredly, because, he sa id, they had pushed
France into the Crimean war in order that
she might exhaust her gold treasure In
needless combat. The French Free Ma
sons, added the bishop, were not less
blameworthy. They had melted French
statesmen to take sides against Catholic
Austria in order that the unification of
Italy might be accomplished. The result
of this deplorable and unrighteous policy
was that united Italy had now turned on
France and was menacing the Alpine
frontier Italy's new strength, moreover,
was being utilized at home to resist the
temporal power Of the pope
