A"Burglar-proof" Safe Wrecked.

BURLINGTON, Ia, Oct. "a guaran-
teed burglar-proof safe in the fire-proof
vaults of the State Bank at Mediapolis
was blown almost to atoms yesterday
morning by a tremendous charge OF
nitro-glycerine. The cracksmen forced
the vault locks without difficulty. The
paper money was torn into little bits
and the coin was battered and bent
and scattered. Nineteen of the bonds
have been recovered intact, the rest be-
ing destroyed or stolen. Fifteen hum
dred dollars in the battered coin was
recovered. The interior of the vault
looks as though it had passed through
a bombardment. A ton of scrap metal
lies upon the floor and is imbeded in
the walls and ceiling The boxes were
riddled by flying pieces of metal and
S131 900 worth of mortgage deeds are
almost destroyed. The robbers made
their escape on a stolen hand-car.

TUESDAY EVENING. OCT. ?, 1884,
CARDINAL GIBBONS says /;

"Strikes, as experience has demon
strated, are very questionable for the
redress of the laborer's grievances.
They check industry, excite passion;
They often lead to the destruction OF
property, and they result in intlicting
many Injuries by keeping the laoorer
in idleness, while his mind is clouded
by discomfort, aud his family not un,
frequently suffer for the comforts and
necessaries of life. From statistics fur
nished by Carroll D. Wright OF the
eight wears ending December l., 1888,
we find that the loss to the employees
bv strikes amounted to nearly S13,OW,-
600. while the employers lost only one
half this amount"
Now, while there is nothing new IN
these words of the Cardinal, for there is
nothing new that hasn't been old, that
they contain rock ribbed truth is patent
to every wise man who reads them;
and, for the good of those not so WISE
the strikers, it is hoped that even they
may have light given them to see what
is plain to others, and that hereafter
they may know, that of all things
strikes IRE the least profitable to them
selves.

Senator Hill.

New YORK, Oct. 2.-Senator David
B. Hill after breakfast this morning met
several of the democratic leaders at
the Hotel Normandie, among them
George B. Mcclellan, John Boyd
TEACHER and Clerk Defreest. To the
reporters who clustered around, Sena.
tor Hill said Il must decline to say
anything of a political nature" Mr..
Defreest was asked if Senator Hill
would call on Judge Gaynor to-day.
He replied :"He may, and then again
he may not" When asked about the
time the candidates would be notified
of their nomination, the gentleman at
the conference thought the date would
probably be set for Wednesday.

IT Isl physiological fact that negroes
unlike white people, are brighter when
young, and become more stupid as they
grow old. This fact is aptly illustrated
in the case of one of the most notorious
of them, Fred Douglas, who r%ejoices
over the return of another one, Asst
wood, who couldn't get an office, to the
republican, the high tariff party. Why
q negro should vote the high tariff tick
ct is what neither he nor any body else
can tell, as, of all the people in this
country, he is least protected and most
plundered by such o tariff. No body
pretends that his labor is protected, no
matter how high the tariff may be, and
the tariff always highest on such ar.
ticles as he buys.

THE FATHER WAS Too LATE
Miss Cicely Armes, the eighteen-year-
old daughter ofMajor George A. Armes,
a retired officer of the regular army,
was married to Herbert Claude, super
intendent of the Rock Creek Railway,
at the parsonage ofSt. Patrick's Church,
near Washington, yesterday AFTERNOON,
and the couple slipped out of a side
door just as the brides father charged
in at the front, armed with a warrant for
the young mans arrest.
The wedding was the elimination OF
long-standing family troubles. Mrs.
Armes placed the young lady in a con-
vent to keep her father from her.
Major Armes complained last week to
the sisters because they permitted Mr..
Claude to call upon his daughter. The
young man says Major Armes threaten
ed to kill him on sight, so that he arm
ed himself. Yesterday a marriage
license was procured. When Major
Armes heard of it he sought o justice,
secured a warrant for Mr.. Claude on
the charge of carrying concealed
weapons, and drove up to the parson-
age at four o'clock, while the ceremony
was being performed in the presence of
Mrs. Armes and friends, with two
detectives, who had been employed by
the groom, in his wake. Fathers Lee
and Stafford p~arleyed with the father
in the doorway, the blessing was pro,
bounced, and the couple had started
for the depot for the wedding trip when
he learned the truth. Then the Major
betook himself to police headquarters,
where his request that Herbert Claude
be arrested was refused.
Major Armes was courtmartlaled for
pulling the nose of Gen. James A.
Beaver, of Pennsylvania, during Presi-
dent Harrison's Inauguration, and has
conducted q real estate business since
his retirement.

JUDGE HARLAN, of the U. s. Su-
preme Court, yesterday decided that
while railroad employees have the same
right to strike that all other workmen
Lave, they have no right to enter into
q combination or conspiracy to stop
working, with the intention of Grip
ping the property or in any other way
preventing the operation of the road.
1t is hoped this decision and the pre-
vious fines and Imprisonment imposed
by inferior courts upon many Of the
more violent men engaged in the late
railroad strike, may, for the sake OF all
other railroad employees, prove effec-
tive deterrents to the repetition OF
such q disastrous strike-infinitely more
disastrous to those engaged in it than to
n body else.

A FASHIONABLE locality in Brooklyn
is all torn up because q negro has
bought a house in it and intends to
move there with his wife and numerous
children. The most violent opponent
of the proposed Outrage" is a rank re-
publican, who says he favored the
emancipation of the negroes. Negroes
can live as close as they please to the
white people of the South, but they
can't stand between the wind and the
gentility of a Northern republican.
Northern republicans love the "poor,
dow ntrodden negro" but they love
him in the South; in the North his
room is better that his company; to
them, distance lends enchantment to
the view" of the negro.

GOVERNOR MCKINLEY, who wants
to be President, says no matter how
much money the government could
make, the people would get it no easier
than they do now but the famous dis
appointed Mr.. Clarkson, who, by the
by, has revived himself long enough to
declare for Senator Allison for Presi
dent, says "the republican party will
soon take a stand for bi-metallism."
While the people would get no more
money out of 81 full, than an empty
treasury, there is no doubt of the fact
that the former would afford thieves 8
greater opportunity for plumber; End
pcs IDLY that may be the reason why
SO many prominent republicans are
favoring free silver coinage.

FOUGHT IN MID-AIR.-Two men struggling
on a bit of iron that projected from the Met
ropolitan IL" road bridge superstructure over
the river attracted fully 500 persons to the
Jackson-street bridge, Chicago. on Friday
night. Martin Randall was, until a few days
ago, employed in the construction of the new
bridge. George Atkinson, superintendent in
charge of the iron construction, dismissed him
for cause, and Randall left, vowing vengeance
Friday night, while the night crew were
working Atkinson was perched on a beam
and was directing his assistants below. Ran
dali clambered up the ladder alongside the
crane, reached Atkinson's side and catching
him by the throat tried to hurl him into the
river. Atkinson isl powerful man and re-
sisted with all his strength. Finally, he lost
his balance and plunged downward, But
caught at the beam in time to hold himself.
Randall drew a long-bladcd butcher knife
and plunged the weapon into his helpless vic
TINS abdomen. Atkinson fell into the water
and was RESCUED. He will die. Randall
sought to escape, but vas captured as ne
reached the ground.

SOLOMON said: He that spareth the
rod hateth his son; but he that loveth
him, chasteneth him betimes. But as
Colonel Ingersoll scouts the Bible and
fouts the religion upon which it ia
founded, and thinks himself infinitely
wiser than Solomon, it is nc wonder
that he takes the part of the refractory
inmates of the reform prison at Elmirs,
and says "the lash will never develop
the brain nor cultivate the heart" But
tue experience of the world proves that
it will make a bad and disobedient boy
behave himself quicker and better than
any other mode of punishment ever de-
yised. :
