entrance by forcing up one of the
windows. With Il large hammer they
knocked off the handle Of the safe,
and in the hole thus made they in

blew the door completely off. They
took everything inside, which con-
sisted Of $l20.S0 in cash, a silver watch

sticks Of dynamite were found near
the tank, but no clue to the robbers

Our young people, and some of the

east of this city. Schell & Faragher's
pond below the Central depot is the
nearest one, and the managers have
done all in their power to make it as

christened Lake Side.n You should

skilled servants end then offer the re-
many instances. entirely without the

reach a peaceful settlement, without in
convenience to the public, the companies
are responsible; it was a mere caprice that
dictated refusal to treat with it's own men
and later brought about desired conditions
through dealings with strangers. Through
out the whole of this trouble the rights

sarded. and to avert duplication and pos
sible multiplication of the trouble we may
lock for many legislative propositions; the
one proposition calling upon the COM

it could have been in Brooklyn at any time

That the financial condition of the United
States is out of joint will be admitted by
all persons Who have even the most remote
acquaintance with national affairs; that 1t
is SO thoroughly unsatisfactory as to be
termed critical is apparent to every OBJ
server: that President Cleveland simply did
his duty in calling the attention of Con-
gress ponteily and vigorously to the crisis
and to the necessity for legislative relief
will be admitted by all manner of politi-
clans. But there comes the parting of the
ways; there all semblance of agreement
ceases; there harmony is lost in the great
uncontrolled confusion of the gold and sill
Yer and wind Instruments upon which
every public man is, or thinks he Is. n
mere or less expert performer Prior to the
sending of the message there was universal
outcry for the doing of something; now
there is a Babel-like confusion of tongues
as each segment of all the parties yells
vociferously for what 1t believes to be the
orly remedy. 1t was not to be expected
that any financial ideas likely to be adj
vanced by President Cleveland would meet
with the approval of Congress of any
considerable proportion of that hard-to-
please body. but not even the evident hope
lessness of Wholesale conversion deferred
the President from putting directly before
the visual organs of the Legislative branch
of the government the unmpeachable fact
that Congress had done nothing to relieve
the situation, and the other fact-not to be
disposed of by words that the country
stands face to face with a threatening
emergency. All the probabilities are favor
allie to non-fnancial action by the present
Congress, so the chances are, therefore.
favorable to an extra session of a Congress
that. while out of accord with the political
beliefs of the Chief Executive may perhaps
be found more capable of harmonious ac-
tiCn on the nations financial problem than
the democratic national legislature which
is so soon to go into history.

should investigate the case Of Edgar Bel

has been filed at the clerks office Of the
court of appeals a "hoodoo bag" which
contains dice. rabbits foot and several
other articles supposed to be potent as

him to do anything else than commit the

pleas is now added the hoodoo defense.

The Mckaig bill designed to reform the
republics public architecture has been en-
dorsed by the Secretary of the Treasury
and by the architects of the country, and
has been approved by the Committee on
Public Buildings and Grounds of the House.
A vigorous effort would probably result in
its passage through Congress, and there
can be no question that much money would
eventually be saved to the government
thereby, as well considerable scandal and
shame. The present system cannot but be
productive of poor results and harsh criti-
cism. The reform measure has been most
carefully revised, and passed from hand to
hand until it would appear as though all
the loop-holes had been stopped. There is
yet time for this plan to be put into the
form of law. If the various endorsements
which it has received have been sincere,
and not merely perfunctory.

The lyfng-macbine movement has nov
come to the convention stage. This Is q.
distinct period in the evolution Of al adj
vanced ideas and the present promise Is
that the problem of human flight may be
solved at a great gathering of all the dis
ciples of Darius Green. This great con-
vention of seekers after atmospheric trans
portation Is to be called IAN aeronautiral
camp-meeting.' to be held on Cape Cod.
The protector of this mass meeting;
of fiyists points out in circular that on
Cape Cod could be found the necessary Sc
cIusion scarcity of trees, and steadiness
of the wind. These are three great requi-
sites. for publicity and trees might COM
bine to produce some terribly embarrassing
predicaments. Trees have always been
menaces to graceful landings from aerial
voyages. They apt to expose the
would-be navigator of the ether to the
rude jibes of an unfeelng world while lie
is bordering on the problem of how to get
down. The protector commends the stead
mess of the Cape Cod winds, ard he has
apparently arranged for them to prevail
throughout the camp-meeting from the sea-
side, 50 as not to depopulate the assembly
by dropping individuals into the Jealous
brine that lashes the beaches of the Cape.
An attractive series of experiments has
been laid out-a tempting aeronauticaI
menu-as 1T were. and if the plans are car
ried out successfully 1t Is hardly to be
doubted that the natives of the Cape VIII
experience religious revival such as they
have not known before, when all manner
of strange shapes from this novel camp
meeting shall begin to float over tneir
peaceful homes. Verify there will be good
reason for them to believe that the judg-
ment day has come in real earnest, espc-
CT ally If. as the protector hopes, Herr Lili-
enthal, the German flyist, should attend.
Cape Cod presents one serious obstacle 10
the plan. however; 1t has no hills from
the summit of which all this flying is to be
done. So the protector proposes to buiid
a hill, cone-shaped, like LilenthaPs. TO
make the falling more easily managed and
less fatal He is also willing Ito take
charge of the soariL 6 machine experiments
and to superintend the raising Of the
funds" He - evidently willing. therefore
to share with the Cape Cod Boreas the
task of raising the winds, but who is going
to guarantee the raising of the flyists?

The Washington Star makes daily prog
nostication of the year in the twentieth
century which will witness the completion

the number OF days work required and
dividing that by the actual number Of
men employed. The building is going up
slowly but surely, and some time in the
future it will be completed. Now, II we
apply this method Of reckoning to the Bal
timore City College, when can We look for
its completion? Some three years ago the
old building collapsed. Up to the present
time the authorities have decided not to
get better site, but to make use Of the
old lot Some consider that this is an
achievement and marks progress In the
work 1t Is even said that some Of the
youngest boys at the college are looking
forward to seeing in their old age their
grandchildren attending the college In the
new building But this can be dismissed
as simply the exuberant fancy and char
acterstic hopefulness Of youth.

With the renewal of extreme wintry
weather that accompanied last nights
heavy snowfall comes great access of sur
fering to the poor. UP to this time the
big hearted people of Washington have
done nobiy in the work Of relieving those
unfortunates who by reason of the phenom~
email financial and industrial depression are
compelled to be subjects of charity But
today there are hundreds of men. women
and children who must shiver In chilly
misery and suffer the pangs of hunger
through no real fault of their own: these
must be assisted at once. The methods by
which assistance may be rendered are veil
known: a great stream of benevolence
should flow through the channels that lead
most directly to the helpless.

With the Brooklyn strike about settled
ard the disorder consequent upon the
struggle almost at an end. 1t is now proper
to look closely into the causes of dis
turbance that discommoded more than q
million people and wrought injury that
cannot be repaired Inquiry of this sort
could not easily be made while the strife
that required the strong arm of the law
to quell it was on: the duty Of the hour
was the compelling of peace by any and all
means within control of the duly consti-
tuted authorities. There have been very
many unreasonable strikes, but the term
unreasonable cannot fairly be applied to
the protesting action of the motormen and
conductors of the street-car companies
whose lines have been comparatively idle
for more than a week For awhile COM
PEELED to labor greater number of hours
each day than was really fair, and INSULT
ciertly compensated. the employees had
ground for discomfort, and these grievances
were aggravated by the arbitrary sched-
ules which compelled the movement of
cars at rates of speed illegal and so dam
gerous that within a comparatively brief
period about one hundred persons have
been killed by collisions. while many more
have been crippled for life. For many of
these deaths the motormen and conductors
have been held personally responsible, al
though they were compelled by their en-
ployers to operate the cars at killing
rate of speed or leave the company's serv-
ice. That the men should rebel against
such conditions is In no sense remarkable,
and when they decided to give up their
places rather than longer continue to &C.

was largely attended by other
nationalities as well as the resi-
dent Americans. A famous native
orator was present and delivered
an address through an interpreter.
The Samoa Times has an edi-
toTial discussing the propriety Of
allowing Samoans to be taken
abroad for show purposes. 1t
holds that the natives should not
be allowed to go abroad if their
conductors were all like Cunning
ham (who gave exhibitions of his
troupe here several years ago).
Some of his troupe died abroad
and others we're abandoned in the
States and sent home by the New
York World.
H. j. Moors had treated his
Worlds Fair and Midwinter Fair
troupes, however, with perfect
satisfaction, and their enlarged
views of the world greatly i'm
proved their characters. A Mr..
Marquardt has just left with the
fourth native troupe to leave
Samoa, and the Times concludes
that foreign "malagas" should be
encouraged as much as possible
BY the king and his advisers, as
tending to educate the Samoans
in such way as to lead to their
ultimate improvement as people.
