laHt Firemen.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, April 9.-The
Davidson theatre, he finest play house
in Milwaukee and one of the hand
soonest and costliest theatres in the
country was destroyed this morning
by fire. The total money loss occa-
stoned by the fire is about 1925, 900 as
follows: Theatre proper and stationary
scenery, about $4,000; Resented
Bros proprietors of the Lilliputians,
$45,000 JOS Clauder, orchestra leader,
$4,000 The hotel proper is not much
f any damaged.
Shortly aft er Z o'clock, when the fire
was seemingly under control, the the
atre roof fell in, carrying with it a
score or more of firemen. Some were
extricated with slight injuries, others
more seriously hurt, and the following
are missing or known to have been
burned to death:
George Jansen, Company No @

Thomas Morgan, Company No. l.
Frank McGurk.
James Freeman, Company No. 4.

The following hremen who went
down with the roof were rescued and
taken to the Emergency hospital:

Central fire station, PROBABLY fatally
injured.
Fred. Marsh, Company No. 5, foot

Fred. Schroeder and John zoe, pipe.
men, Company No. 4, badly burned
and back hurt.
The large building was used as
theatre on the ground fl ,or and the
rear, while Of the portion above the
ground floor the front was utilized as
a hotel, with an annex extending to
to the north, which was not damaged
by the flames. The hotel portion was
well filled with guests, but they were
warned in time and made their escape
without injury, though a panic pre-
vailed, many of them escaping in
hastily made toilets or scarcely none
at all, to the Schlitz hotel, nearly OPP

WORK OF RESCUE.
The work of rescuing the bodies of
the killed and the men who were not
killed began Immediately after the roof
fell. VIM. Crowley remained in the
ruins alive for hours, and his comrades
put forth tremendous exertions to save
him There was fire all around him,
and the spot where he was pinned
down was flooded. Along about 10
o'clock the firemen got near enough
to speak to him, and were good deal
surprised to find him conscious and
able to talk. He asked his rescuers to
be careful and not drown him with
the streams. He said there WAS dead
Man near him, but he did not know
who he was.
After that Crowley's voice could not
be heard for some little time, and it
was feared that he had died, but he
was subsequently, able to make himself
heard again. He said the body near
him was that OF man who had been
drowned. Some iron rods were pin

man frailties. We are quite certain If
these women knew that their admira-
tion for such men endangered the purity
of any of their sex that they would elm
mate all such unhOly admiration from
their natures. They can be assured that
this kind of admiration kindles the
ambition and worst passions of men ana
the fall of many pure girls can be traced
TO the encouragement given by 1t 10
men. Women alone can cure this evil
and that is by ostracising the man Ill
the same way that they now do the wo-
man for certain Offenses. That is ITS
only cure. If they indulge a natural
for such viciousness in men
they may be certain that their own sex
will suffer for the qualities they admire
in men. This kind of admiration
may be understood by men, in their APP
preciation of the fact that men often adj
mire rascals, not for the quality we al
lde to, but for holiness of design and
recklessness of execution. 1t is often
to the best men to admire
n Robin Hood or a Chas. ID. Moor and
similar characters, and men can under
stand how women have this dangerous
kind of admiration for men who have
the reputation of being irresistible to
their sex.

A DANGEROUS KIND OF ADMIRA
TION.

An exchange remarks that most peO-
pie like to be called bad in a laughing
way" Not most people, but number
of men like to be called bad in a laughing
way, whic means Dad i'll certain Wy.
Society women are responsible for this
kind of vanity in men. They receive
and fatter men guilty of crimes for
which they would condemn their own
sex to eternal inf my. This tlattering
not only encourages men to cultivate n
reputation in this line but it often has
the effect of making men do bad things
in order to be thus regarded by women.
Many men love to have the reputation
of being irresistible to women, and it
is true that such a reputation makes Il
man fascinating to the female sex, even
good and innocent women. Just as long
as men are thus encouraged to win the
reputation of Fascinating rascals" they
will be guilty of acts that ought to con-
denim them as they do their female part
ners in guilt.
There is Il congressman whom we
have all read of whose vanity has been
flattered by such a reputation, and we
are told by the Washington correspond
ents that he daily promenades about the
fashionable shopping places at Wash
ington City to be admired by fashion
able society women. He has thor
ough knowledge of human nature and
he knows the reputation he has lately
acquired as ''roue" makes him popular
with certain class of women. The
worst feature of it all is that these wo-
men are not necessarily bad, for even
good but thoughtless women yield to
This unaccountable admiration of the
character of men to whom we allude.
1t may be a part of a woman's nature.
She may that far participate in the fall
of man as TO be thus tainted with hui

MORTON's INAUGURATION.

Albany, Dec 16-All arrangements for
the Inauguration of Governor-elect Nor
ton have been completed and the affair
promises to be one of the simplest of it's
kind ever witnessed. At 1890 o'clock
on the morning of Dec. 81 the Tenth
Battalion National Guards troops will
proceed to the executive mansion and es-
cort Governor Morton and his staff to the
capitol Governor-elect Morton and his
staff will meet Governor Flower and his
staff in the executive chamber and the
party will then proceed to the assembly
chamber. There will be prayer by Right
Rev. Crosswell B. DOane, Episcopal
bishop of Albany, and following that
Governor Flower will make the welcOm-
ing address to the governor-elect. Secre-
tary of State Palmer will administer the
oath of office and Governor Morton will
then make his inaugural address and the
exercises will close with music by the
band and benedction by the official clergy.
At the conclusion of the inaugural cere-
monies Governor Morton will receive the
public generally at the executive cham
Der. In the evening the governor and
Mrs. Morton will receive Albanians at
the executive mansion. The second day
of Governor Morton's administration
will find him in the midst of the heavy
work, the Legislature meeting on the Ind
of January, and the governor being
obliged to send in his annual message to
that body.

A COMMISSION TO SETTLE THE
CURRENCY QUESTION.

Mr.. VIM. II. Baker, president OF the
Commercial club of Chicago, recently at
n meeting of the club in introducing the
subject for discussion by the club--the
subject being Our Currency, It's De
fects and Practical Remedies, etc-men-
tioning the amounts of the different
classes of currency now in circulation,
incidentally remarked that in travelling
he had made the acquaintance OF u
congressman of long term of service, so
long that his vote must have been cast
on most of the monetary legislation,
Int he was unable to tell the attributes
of q single class of currency, excusing
himself on the ground that he did not
belong to the committee on banking and
currency Mr. Fake" concluded tnat IL
his vote depended upon committee OF
the house of representatives when 1t
might cause disastrous legislation that
81 national commission to consider this
question and recommend to congress a
solution of it won d be both wise and
patriotic. Mr.. Baker adds that such
cOmUlSSlOu-lEcc HUM p"i'io ""'
and there is no politics in business-if
created by congress should have weight
with it. believe such a commission of
business men, not politicians, would
easily find a solution that would not only
commend itself to congress, but to the
public"
The congressman spoken of by MIR.
Baker is q representative man OF CON
gressional membership generally. Those
members who are not on the committees
of banking and currency depend entirely
on the report of partisan committee, or
on the minority report, just as the mem
hers of the committee represent the party
to which they belong. congressman
have not taken the trouble to inform
themselves on the subject so that they
might vote intelligently and independ-
emily, but they are governed wholly by
the members of the committee who be-
long to their party. In the face of these
patent and acknowledged facts every
sensible man must conclude that the
whole financial system of the govern
ment must be taken out of the domain
of politics and given to experts to settle,
as The Statesman has from time to time
suggested as the only wise and patriotic
course. Finance is a science and ought
to be treated scientifically by scientific
men and not by politicians.

We have had nearly all kinds of cures"
the faith cure, the massage cure, the wat

Christian science cure, but now comes the
freeze out cure from France. The
temperature of the tank must be below
zero, but the professor of this ice cure adj
vises us if we will plunge in, even rheu-

is that the fear after such freezing pro-
cess we would not thaw out again and
would have to be sent TO a bone yard

One of the ablest secretaries OF the
treasury that any ADMINISTRATION Of this
government has ever had was Mr. Me-
Culloch, who advised the retirement
of greenbacks just after the war Mr..
Carlisle is the first secretary of the treas
ury that has advised it since then. lie
is very clear in urging that the govern
ment shall 60 out of the banking bust
ness. The greenback and other legal ten
ders are the thorn in the secretary's side
that compels him to issue bonds to sus-
tain the credit of the government. These
greenbacks and legal tenders come to the
treasury demanding gold and it has to be
paid. In this way the gold reserve is
infringed upon. The greenbacks are
again started into circulation, coming
back time and again for gold. The re-
suit is that the gold reserve is diminished
below its legal amount and again and
again bonds have to be issued. This is
a ruinous policy, and Mr. Carlisle's de-
mand must be complied with to relieve the
treasury of this constant drainage.

The conviction of Police Captain Steph-
cnson of New York City for receiving
"bribc of six baskets of peaches to al
low fruit merchant to violate the law
is the best evidence of the change of
sentiment in that city and its determine
ton to bring all guilty officials to re-
sponsibility for their illegal acts. If
this captain is convicted for accepting
peaches we may certainly expect con-
viction of other captains who have re-
ceivcd thousands of dollars for permit
ting violations of the law. If this was
the only charge that could be brought
against Captain Stephenson, according
to the evidence before the LeXOw COM
mittee against many other captains. he is
exceptionally virtuOus.
