An Englishman, who, when she was
a girl, Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett
really looked upon as her enemy, turns
out, upon mature reflection, to be the
man who of all others, most influenced
the famous authors life. Mrs. Burnett
has written out the story Of her curious
friendship for The Ladies' Home Jour-
nal, which periodical will publish it as
the initial article in its series OF "The
Man Who Most Inlunced Me" to which
six of the most famous American aud
English women will contribute.

Mans commission is to subdue nature.
He asserts his sovereignty over every
department of life. Scientists heave
the lead in deep sea soundings; map the
floor Of the Atlantic; foretell the birth
of the tornado; interpret the hierogly-
phics carven on mountain summit and
on sandy strata; pursue the comet
through the space of ether; reckon up
the age OF the sun; In every motion find
ing an idea, in every form purpose, in
every event the token Of plan. The
power OF mans thought is felt by the
sea, owned by the sun, and humbly ac-
knowledged by the winds OF heaven.
Man has riven rocks and ransacked for
ests, tunneled mountains and bridged
gulfs; he has raced with time, chained
the lightning to its throne, and
equipped them for missions OF mercy,
wisdom and wealth. Who can reckon
up the results secured by mans study Of
science? From the hyssop and moss,
from the invisible that brood in flower
cup and quaff honeydew, on through as
cending ranks of moving, living, think
ing, being, has science urged her re-
searches. She has placed mind upon
the rack and drawn forth its secrets;
she has dived beneath oceans surface
and returned with pearly wonders from
coral palace and sea-grove bower; she
has turned the star-powers OF heaven
into revolving and resplendent worlds
and systems. She has welded the
sledge, pointed the needle, printed the
page, heaved the granite, and propelled
the engine of factory and locomotive
There is not beast of the forest OF
farm, not force OF nature, visible OIL
remote, which does not already own the
sway OF man, and yet Notwithstanding
all the above facts, how aimless, worth
less and vile are many OF the beings
called man? 1t is not necessary to gt
outside Of the borough limits of our owl
town to find specimens Of the most cor
rupt nature, whose highest aim and am
bition In life is to smoke, drink ani
carouse around. Such lives are w0rss
than useless; better had they never beer
born. Man was created for higher pur
poses.

Fire and Loss OF Life.

New YORK, May 3l.-The whole
front of a liquor store on Suffolk street
was blown across the street at five
o'clock this morning. Flames shot up
and spread through five stories of the
building and the scared tenants, un-
able to escape through the blazing hall
jumped into blankets held by half-clad
neighbors. One man made a dash
down the stairs and through the blazing
hallway. He staggered into the street
with his hair burned off his head, his
clothes burned to a cinder and the skin
of his arms and wrists hanging in huge
white bliste-s. He died soon after in
awful agony. When the firemen ar
rived the shrieking occupants were
rescued. On the third floor was found
four-year-old girl, who had been for
gotten in the mad rush for safety. She
was horribly burned and died two
hours later. A number of other per-
sons were badly burned and several
were more or less injured by jumping
from the windows. Nearly 100 per-
sons are left homeless and destitute.

Paret included vigorous protest
against certain ritualistic practices and

were scandal and oflense to Their

broken over the church's ritual had
"perjured themselves before God. Il

northern republican protectionists say
the proposed tariff bill is a rebel bill,
and was framed by "rebels" to stab
the North for Appomattox. And yet
the bill will put forty million dollars
into the pockets of the northern sugar
trusts, protects New England textile
products with fifty per cent duty,
and removes the duty from the wire
used in the North for fencing; but it puts
p duty on cotton ties, used in the South,
and reduces the duty on southern coal
and iron ore. Then, too, the vast ma
jorty of the people of the South, or
rebels, as the takers referred to call
them, are in favor of free trade, while
the new tariff bill is high protective
measure. But, it little recks the aver
