SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER IS, 1894.
THAT TERRIBLE FIRE.

Scarcely two weeks have passed since
several towns, with many Of their inhab-
itants, were burned up in this state. The
cry for help was heard on all sides, even
in distant Turkey the heart of the Sultan
was eoftened when he learned the terri
bic work of the fre. Our own people
came forward with rush and offered
money and clothing. For a few days
there was nothing talked of but the fire
and it's dire results. Today there is not
word, outside few interested ones.
about that awful calamity. Can it be
possible that We have 80 soon forgotten
our grief laden, poverty stricken neigh
bors? It is to be hoped that we have not.
We shonld not forget that these poor
destitute ones are on the eve of entering
upon long and cheerless winter; that
they all want clothing, and will want
food from the hand OF charity for long
time, that their little ones must have
bread and clothing, as we'll as the older
ones, for they get hungry Just as often
and feel the cold just as keenlY as any
one, While donations have come in very
literally, still there is lots of space in the
big store-room On Second street for more
warm clothing. There has not been
enough bedding donated; neither has
there been enough money. 1t seems to
us that the small towns throughout the
state have done more according to their.
means than our own city has. We are
not disposed to find fault by any means,
but take this means OF reminding our
readers that il they can spare either
money or clothing they should donate
what they can as soon ais possible. In
spsctor Ryan, who has charge Of the sup
ply depot ON lower Second street, says
there Is room for several car loads of
good clothes yet, and that those people
who have money or clothing to spare will
confer favor by either leaving their
contributions with him, or by letting him
know where, such clothing can be had
and he will call for it. It is very neces-
sary that something be done this week
towards winding up the gathering to-
gether of the clothing, and people who
have anything to give should do so at
onoe. Only think how you would feel If
your home and contents were burned up.
God loveth the cheerful giver," and no
more worthy cause has presented itself
to us in many years.

ible power-no, it is the confession Of az
indubitable right.
1.-THE natural ownership of God over
Us remains; He has never parted with it
/ He can, indeed, commission us, or make
us His agents or ministers to take even
human life. Such right is recognized
by the common sense Of mankind and
sanctioned in the Scriptures, as inherent
in the State; but even by the State it car
only be exercised in Gods name, as the
minister Of Gods justice. Even the State
never acquires an ownership over man.

of another man. He is here infringing
on the right Of God. expressed in the
words / have taken as text: See ye
that I alone am, and there is no other
God besides Me; will kill and will
make alive
The suicide, then, directly puts him
self in the place of God; he arrogates to
Himself the right that belongs to God
alone and which has always remained
reserved and never communicated to any
creature in general terms.
"The prohibition is in possession; the
presumption reserving the life of each
and every one Of us as Gods untransferred
property remains till it is overthrown by
an express statement on his part, in gen.

and Heaiy is laying the wires for the
leaders place. He now controls some
thirty members OF the party, and eyi.
IDENTITY proposes to use the circular to In
crease his prestige. At this writing il
cannot be said who the McCarthyites
will put up for leader, but it will make
but little difference with Healy who he is,
he (Heaiy) will be candidate for the
place and may succeed in getting it too.
10 still further his plans he proposes to
start daily newspaper in Dublin de-
voted to his interests. This will also
bring him considerable strength. He
could not do more were he bent on the
total destruction OF the Irish party.
Should Justin Mccarthy resign at the
end of his term, which he most likely
will, Healy above all men should not be
his successor. The leader OF the Irish
party should be man of much coolness
OF temperament; slow to Jump at conclu-
slons; always able to command respect,
even at the hands OF the opposition; g
man who can make sacrifices for his par
TVS good and command the respect of
every man in the party. These are few
OF the qualifications necessary for the
leader OF the Irish parliamentary party.
Whenever Parnell rose to speak in the
house of commons every eye was fixed
upon him, and though many of the op-
position hated him for his love of Ire-
land, they respected him for his sincerity.
It was such traits of character as this
that made Parnell such power. Were
Healy promoted to the leadership would
we find in him the cool and collected
Parnell, or the wi3e and dignifed Nc
Carthy? No! Healy was never made for
a leader, and no matter how many ad-
mirers he may count as his supporters in.
the Irish parliamentary party, he will
never fill that Office with any degree of
satisfaction either to himself or his
party. Healy should look after his law
practice and let politics alone.

last Saturday. He was the son Of the
late Duke d'Orleans, and grandson OF
the late Louis Phillippi, King of the
French. He was forced to flee from bis
native country with his mother IN 1S48.
In 1861 he came to this country, where
he served one year as captain of volun-
teers in Gen. McClellan's staff and then
returned to Europe. Since 1886, when
the French government passed the ex-

THOUGH the local Democrats have not
yet named their choice for mayor, still
enough dissatisfaction can be seen in the
ranks OF the Republicans to ensure the
defeat Of the latter's candidate. A week
had scarcely past from the time the Re
publicans nominated their city ticket
when A. j. Boardman, defeated mayor
ality candidate, announced his intention
of defeating the ticket. Boardman
claims to have been defeated by unfair
methods and for that reason he proposes
to beat the ticket. He will either run as
an independent or get some one else
who will, thus dividing the Republican
vote and giving the election to the Dem
ocratic candidate. For these and many
other good things that Mr.. Boardman
and his friends promise to do for the
Democratic ticket this fall We are much
obliged. The Democrats expect to elect
their mayor this year no matter what the
Republicans do, but if Mr.. Boardman
will only run on the Independent plat
form it will only be 9 question OF major
ity for the Democratic nominee. A short
time ago our Republican friends were
telling Us that any kind Of Republican
ct the head Of the city ticket would de-
feat the best Democrat in the city. This
was all for effect, Of course, but those
who were 50 loud about the Democracy
being dead are not even whispering it
these days. Ii the Democrats put 10 q
good man, and there is no doubt in our
mind but they will, he will be elected by
9 handsome plurality. And il our friend
Mr.. Boardman will only carry out his
threat and run as an Independent the
defeat of the Republicans will be doubly
hattering. In how far Boardman's can
dldacy would effect the entire ticket il
hard to say at this writing, but it is safe
TO say that it would not help the Repub-
lican nominees any. A few Of those who
engineered Mayor Eustis' defeat ID nom
mating Robert Pratt, no doubt, feel
themselves endorsed since Boardman
sounded his trumpet,

A DISPATCH from Chicago dated 11th
inst, says: "Ex-C Congressman Frank
Lawler to-day filed his petition OF $4,000
names with the county clerk to have his
name placed on the official ballot as a

congressional district. This action on
the part Of Mr.. Lawler, it is claimed,

before the people as candidate, not
withstanding his nomination by the Pop
ulist convention two weeks ago"

THE LATE CIRCULAR.

It is pity that one or two disturbe1s
of the peace and good will that pervsde
the Irish parliamentary party could not
be expelled from the ranks altogether.
Not many days ago "a circular was issued
by the Irish National League of Great
Britain appealing for funds. One of
these circulars was mailed to Mr.. Glad
stone by some unknown person, and the
ex-premier promptly forwarded his check
for G100, Lord Tweedmouth also con-
trlbuting. When Tim Healy heard OF
this he became indignant and threatened
all kinds of vengeance on the men who
issued the circular, saying that the
money should be returned to Mr.. Glad
stone and Lord Tweedmouth at once.
Michael Davitt very wisely takes diff
ferent view of the matter. He thinks
that as long as money comes from no
worse source to help the cause OF Ireland
the Irish party will never have any rea-
son to blush for accepting such dona-
tions. He adds that he hopes more Lib
erals will follow the ex x-premier's exam
pie. Healy is not SO much opposed to
accepting funds from English Liberals
as he is bent on creating q feeling for
himself in the, ranks Of the party, the

SO hard to accomplish. Mr. Justin Nc

Il Famous Beadle OF Paris.

Discours, the beadie of the Church of
st. Roch, in Paris, died on Saturday. He
was almost famous for his tall stature,
imposing air and portly figure, and was
at once the tallest of the Paris beadles
and the senior Of them all. Provost, the
beadle of the Madeleine, stood next in
stature, and after him came the beadle
of Notre Dame, an ex-drum major, who
was engaged two years ago by Archbish-
OPP Richard.
Discours was a passionate lover of bill
lizards and went every evening to play
at the Cafe Regence, where he used to
measure his skill with M. Grevy before
the latter was president of the republic.
He constantly saw there a man taller
than himself, Mr.. Theodore Tilton, the
American poet, who went to La Re-
gence to play chess and was more than
a match for Grevy. The post of beadle
in a Paris church is a much envied one
among the class of men who compete for
it. At Notre Dame, the Madeleine and
st. Clotilde the salary is eco, and there
are perquisites at grand weddings and
funerals. In smaller churches the pay
is G40. The gorgeous uniforms and sill
yer headed wand are provided by the

Boiler Scales.

The use of oil in preventing boiler
scale now so prevalent is met with the
objection that in using other than stand.
ard oil of $50 to 800 degrees fire test
there is danger of the formation of what
is called oil scale. This, according to
chemical authority, is owing to the fact
that when the higher fire test oils are
introduced they rise and float upon the
top of the water, and the latter, impreg-
mated with sediment and mud, boils
and bubbles up through the oil scum on
top, and on the water becoming yapor-
lied it hberates the particles of mud
and scale contained, which fall back
upon this layer of oil upon the top Of
the water. After awhile the layer of oil
becomes so ~impregnated with mineral
substances that it sinks to the bottom
Of the boiler, forming an incrustation,
or oil scale, which is as injurious to the
boiler as is the lime OF magnesium
scale. But the same objection, it is re-
marked, has also been made to crude
petroleum. New York Sun.
