THE VIRTUE OF CRITICISM,

"Amber,"in the mes-Herald.
If you expect to escape criticism in
this world you put yourself in the at
titude of flower roots that expect to
grow without the discipline of the hoe.
Before We can amount to any thing,
either In blossom or as fruit, we must
undergo much honest criticism, and of
such we need never be afraid. A candid
enemy is of far more benefit, often, than
a timid friend, who, seeing our faults, is
afraid to tell us of them. The fact that
boys stone certain trees and pass others
by Is explainable when We find that the
stones are always thrown at the trees
that bear fruit. And 80 with chara cter;
the fact that We are criticised proves
that we are something better than
scrub-oaks. All criticism, however, that
does not set in growing and stimu-
late show of blossom and a yield of
fruit is like a hoe made of wood, or a
cultivator without applied power to
make 1t cast the weedy growths. If
the honest and unanimous verdict of the
community in which we live asserts that t
we are lazy, and selfish, and proud, we
may be pretty sure that we need the
particular stroke of the hoe to acceler-
ate our crop of blossoms. Nobody (save
One) was ever yet universally con-
demned without some cause. If, then,
we find that the people who do not
know us very we'll, nor like us very
much. are criticisng certain lines of our
conduct, 1t Is time to admit that We
need the hoe and time to accept its
mnistration,

ENLARGiNG THE MILL.
Big Addition TO Lackawanna knittin g
Works to BE Erected at Once.

Big Addition TO Luckawauua knittin
Works to BE Erected at Once.
The extending of industries on the
South Side keeps on apace. The latest
news in this respect Is the announce
ment made last evening by William
Connell that an addition 80 iby 100 feet
and as high as the main building will
be made to the Lackawanna Knitting
mills on Brook street.
The contract was let yesterday to
Conrad Schroeder, with instructions to
begin it right away and finish 1t as soon
as practicable. The addition will be
chiefly for work floors, but certain
part of it will be apportioned for office
room to relieve the crowded condition
of the offices at present.
The addition will be equal to almost
| an entire new factory, and will cause
upwards Of between rs and 100 new
hands to DE added to the pay roll. This
with the new addition to the Sauquoi,
Silk mill and the Simpson and CO..
| new mill in the upper part of the Twen.
teth ward will represent a vast force
Of industry. Mr.. Schroeder will put q
force Of men to work, perhaps, Mon.
day to eXcavate for the foundation, and
| in about two weeks everything will be-
ready for the masonry. The addition
1t is believed, will make it almost the
largest wooen mill in the country.

committed Ellis to answer at court. as
he was unable to furnish bail. 1t Is
expected. however. that his father. who
is a prominent citizen Of Lake Como.
Wayne county. will 20 his bail today.
At the hearing and by subsequent
Investigations made by Chief Simpson
II was learned that the cause of the un-
pleasantness between Mr.. and Mrs.
Ellis was the alleged discovery made
by the wife that her husband IL a
bigamist. She says. and he admitted
yesterday. that he had wife and fam
lily living in Williamsport when he mar
rled the second time. This Williams
port wife and several Of his children
are still In Williamsport. but they have
never shown any interest In his where
abouts On the other hand, as a sort of
offset. Ellis AYERS that his wife has
proven unfaithful to him and for that
reason and no other he refuses to sup
port her. He produced In proof Of this
allegation, letter from a man named
Lawson. written to his wife. In which
there Is. he says, undoubted proofs OF
her infidelity.
The case will receive an airing In
court. and will doubtlessly prove to be
q very racy one.

PROGRESSIVE ART OF MURDER
From the Cleveland World.

From the Cleveland World.
Medieval romances have many blood
curdling tale of poison, stabbing and other
kinds of murder, with various degrees of
cunning, malace and deliberation. The
motives generally were revenge, Jealousy.
rejected love. But with all their horrors
It is doubtful il they were as wanton, cold
blooded and fiendish as the modern assas-
sination for the purpose of getting the life
insurance OF the victim. 1t has grown al
most into regular industry and like all
other things Is passing through various
stages of development. At first the In
sured was permitted to survive and share
the spOils with his fellow-conspirator
But as the science advanced the leading
spirit of the plot evidently did not see
why he should not absorb all the insur-
ance Doodle, so he proceeded to put the
man actually out of the way. This made
the scheme safer, or at least It was thought
to do 30, for the existence Of the insured
after no was supposed to be dead and
buried was an embarrassment. The in
surance people and the police were likely
to encounter him and make the situation
very awkward all around. OF late years,
therefore, Meyer and his kind have, after
plundering the insurance companies,
either disposed Of the insured or actually
killed him and got the money by. exhibit
ing the genuine corpse. But H. II. Holmes
has advanced the science another step
evidently and now removes not only the
insured but his whole family.
