The republic must triumph over

Tens OF thousands of victims go
annually to the drunkard's grave
from the homes of this land. Pesti-
Ience and war combined do not, II
this country, equal its destructive
energy. The waste OF human lite
wrought every five years y our
saloons is equal to the destruction
of life by both armies-numberlng
millions of armed men-during
the entire war of the rebellion. In
their hands strong drink IS weap-
on 50 fatal that the drunkard-
makers are able to accomplish
more in the same period than tour
times their number with shot and
shell, fire and sword, and all the
appliances of modern warfare. The
cruelty Of war is not measured by
the number of those who fall in
battle, but by the unutterablc woe
and bitter anguish of broken
hearts and desolated homes. Most
cmphatically is it true that the
mere destruction of many thou
sands of lives every year affords
no measure of the relentless cruel
ty OF the liquor power i'll it's war
against society. To realize this
you must so to the dish"nored
homes, question the broken hearts,

the victims of the saloon. Gen.

Trolley TratIi Resumed.

Philadelphia, Dec 24.-The settlement last night of the strike Of the motor men and conductors of the Union Trac- ton company, which was inaugurated a week ago to-day, was followed this morning by a complete resumption of traffic on all lines of the Union Trao- ton system.
 The city has again assumed a normal appearance. the cordons of mounted police, which gave materia. aid in quell- ing riotous disturbances during the past week, have been dismissed, and policemen are no longer acting as guards on the trolley cars. That the re- vival of the street car service was well come was evidenced by the crowds who used the cars this morning in going to their places of business.
 While the strike has been particu- larly deplored because of it's occurrence at the holiday season, the fact that the service has been restored on the day be- fore Christmas is pleasing to buyers and sellers alike.
 Some of the non-union motormen and conductors who have been engaged by the company since the strike manned cars this morning, but majority of the cars were in charge of old en- ployes.

in order to observe the expected engage

A MOMENT OF GREAT SUSPENSE.

Intimate Friends-Fighting to Maintain

ton.
Congressman Charles Tracey, from
the Albany district of New York, long
known as one of President Cleveland's
intimate friends, has consented to tell
the sVIry Of his service as member of
the Papal zouaves in Italy.
''In 1870" said Mr.. Tracey recently,
"the Italian government determined
to take possession of Rome. was then
at home in New York, but left for
Rome in August and arrived at Civita
Vecchia, the port of Rome, the very
day it was taken by the Italian forces.
There met Reyes O'Cleary, who had
been with me in the zouaves; Mr..
Kenyon, another gentleman who desired
to enter the papal army, and young
Hemans, son of Mrs. Hemans, the
poetess. O'Cleary had passed through
Paris ON his way to Rome, and the pa
pal nuncio there had given him pack
ct of letters and papers for Frenchmen
in the zouaves. These he had brought
in satchel That night, after every
body in the hotel had gone to sleep, he
and / got up and went through the
packet, burning all the papers and max
ing the letters up into smaller parcel,
which we put back into the satchel
Next day we four-O'Cleary, Kenyon,
Hemans and mysef-took a carriage
and followed the Italian army toward
Rome. We were stopped by General
Bixio of the Italian forces and informed
that no one would be allowed to enter
Rome until the city had capitulated.
This did not suit us at all We were
eager to join the zouaves in order to
take part in the defense of the Holy
City and determined to try to get
through the Italian lines
-" Driving back out of sight of the sol
diery, we left our carriage, got into
ravine, stole along past the nearest SEN
tries and then started on dead run for
Rome, IL miles away. O'Cleary was
carrying his satchel, and after we had
gone some distance he said he was tired
and passed it over to Hemans. As we
logged along, Hemans in front, O'Cleary

A city is what its inhabitants
make it. If they are energetic, pro-
gressive, with large ideas capable Of
grasping opportunities and utilizing
them for all they are worth ; if they
realize the fact that city is a corr
poration and each citizen is a stock
holder who should use every effort
to promote its progress as a matter
of business; if the Inhabitants of a
city realize the fact that a moral
obligation rests upon them to do
their full duty in all movements for
the public good, then a city with
such inhabitants will thrive.
