One Of our exchanges offers the fol-
lowing sensible suggestions, and con-
sidering the prevalence Of the grip, will
be well for our school teachers to bear
them In mind: Teachers should be
careful in opening windows In school
rooms. They should never open them
in way to cause rush Of cold air over
the scholars. The temperature Of the
scholars also varies. Some can stand
cold drafts and others can't This Is
also matter that must not be lost
sight Of. Teachers who are moving
about and whose blood Is kept warm by
their activity must not make the mis-
take that the scholars who are kept In
their seats and are physically inactive,
can stand as much cold as they them
selves. Half the colds taken by schol-
ars at school is through the imprudent
throwing open Of windows by the teach

Impossible" as the term is here
employed, means that which is supposed
to lie beyond the boundaries of the
possible. The inventor is stea6ily, per-
sistently and greatly enlarging the area
of the possible, as thus understood. He
Is conquering the dark and dubious
domain of the impossible" The world

their habits of life would be condition
precedent to anything like enjoyment.
If we go back to the days beyond the
steamship and the railroad, to the days
of the flint. steel and the tinder-box; to
the era OF tallow candles and huge wood
fires: TO the time when the plumber
took little or no part in the construction
of houses; when the shoemaker and the
tailor itinerated and the school-master
''boarded round;" when there were no
daily and but few weekly papers; when
the telegraph had not been dreamed of;
when the art Of printing was compare
lively in its infancy; when factories
were unknown and simplicity ruled In
all things-.in short, II we go back to
the days of our great-grandfathers, we
are able to understand how much OF the
impossible" has surrendered to the
assaults of invention. And yet we Otter
hear regrets hat 1.-The good old days
are gone. There are those who seem u
lament the progress of the nineteenth
century; thlSe who gaze longingly
lovingly backward, protesting to regard
the old as b tier than the new. Human
sympathy 4 'ws with broader curren
with every passing year. More worl
has been accomplished in the fields o
charity and b,nevolence in our centur,
than had byn attempted in the five
centuries next preceding ours. Reforms
of every kind calculated to alleviate
suffering, spread knowledge, promot'
virtue, and to exalt and purify, hav'
been and are the great featurs o
nineteenth century life.

Against the House Of Lords.
Labor Members of Parliament Speak
from Twelve PlatfOrms-Paris Min
istry Face to Face with a Crisis.

LONDON. March 1S.-An impressive dem
of the House of Lords in rejecting the
employers liability bill was held in Hyde
Park to-day. 1t is estimated that eighty
thousand persons were in attendance. There
were twelve platforms in the park from
which the speakers addressed the as
enormous professions from all parts OF the
city began to arrive in the park. Among
those who took part in the professions were
representatives from every trade union In
London. The chief speakers were Messrs.
Burns, Woods, Arch and Cremer, all of
Resolutions were read from all
the platforms calling on the government to
again introduce the employers liability bill
Immediately on the reassembling OF the
House of Commons and also demanding
that the government take steps to bring
about the entire abolition of the House OF
Lords. AT the sound of a bugle the reso-
lutions were adopted simultaneously at all
the platforms, the crowd signifying their ap-
trouble of any kind reported and after the
adoption OF the resolutions the crowds
quietly dispersed.
Mr.. Burns, in his speech, said that the
working people would have no second cham
Der whatever. they would sooner retain
which was a failure everywhere. He re-
ferred to the agitation in France against
the Senate, and described the United States
Senate as hopeleSsly corrupt.

LA BRETAGNE AGROUND.
Ran Ashore in a Fog Near Fire Island
Saturday Night.

NEW YORK, March 1s-The General
Captain Rupe. from Havre, March 10, for
New York, ran ashore late last night at a
point twelve miles east of Fire island. De-
tails of the accident are not easily obtain
able. but it has been learned that the vessel
went ashore on a sandy bottom and that
she VIII probably be got afloat when the
tide reaches the flood. A dense fog has pre-
vailed over sea and land since an early
hour last night and navigation along the
coast was thereby rendered difficult AMI
dangerous. Ii is conjectured that the steam
er. which was due TO arrive in New York
Sunday morning. had been caught in the
fog and was bringing it along with her
when the accident occurred. Owing to the
extremely thick weather and perhaps a mis-
calculation as to the strength of the cur
rent, the steamer lost her bearings. 1t may
be that the fog shut out the Fire island

their course for New York.

Young Magee Suspected of the Murder
of Martha j. Fuller.

NEW YORK, March 1S.-The death Of
Martha ]. Fuller, the pretty typewriter
who was found shot through the head, in
the law office Of William Mullen, last ev-
ening, takes on an added mystery as the
result Of to-day's Investigations. Joseph l..
Magee, the handsome young managing
clerk in Mr.. Mullen's office, who was with
Miss Fuller a moment before. if not at
the instant, she was killed, was to-day ar
raigned in the Tombs Police Court and
coroner's jury. He was accompanied in
court by Mr.. Mullen, and both appeared
TO be much agitated. Mageeis statement
after his arrest last night seemed TO con-
firm the suicide theory. as he stated that
he and Miss Fuller had been busy until
late in the afternoon preparing a legal
of the room where they were at work,
a pistol shot was fired, and on re-entering
the room he found Miss Fuller lying on the
floor. and at once ran out and gave the
alarm. This story is disputed and a sig
nihcant detail added in the statement of
a young lady clerk from the floor above
the Mullen offices to the effect that she
was the first to enter the room after the shot
was fired, and that the revolver then lay
on Magee's desk, some distance from where
Miss Fuller lay. The autopsy to-day showed
passed in a slightly upward direction
through the head and out at the right tenn
pie. The examination disclosed no reason
for suicide. II Is said relatives are dis
satisfied with the autopsy, and will demand
an examination by another physician be-
fore the body is inferred. The coroner held
Magee without bail to await the action OF
the jury at to-morrow's inquest
The fact that the bullet entered the left
temple, and that Miss Fuller was not left
handed, and wore a tightt!tting glove on
theory, as it is believed she could not
have fired the shot under these conditions.
