GIRARDO CAUSES TROUBLE.

lie Filled Up n Drain and the Court Is
Asked to Interfere.
The borough OF Dunmore Is COM
plainant in an equity suit brought in
court yesterday against Vito Girardo,
the Italian saloonkecpcr Of that bor-
ough, in whose place the party of men
were drinking last February, one OF
whom, Vito Lauisso, was found dead,
his body riddled with bullets, and
another of the crowd being Joseph
Rosa, who has been adjudged guilty In
the first degree for Laulssos murder.
About seven years ago Frank Wag-
ner, in the employ of Frank Spencer,
Susan Spencer, and other heirs of the
late Edward Spencer, constructed
new channel through the land on the
east side of Elm street in the borough,
a little to the south of the old water
course, and extended it across the
street and continued it upon the land of
Susan Spencer, widow Of Edward
Spencer. where the water continued to
run until the month of April, 1895.
lie Filled Up the Drain.
Some time in April, Vito Girardo, the
defendant, who had purchased two lots
on the westerly side of Elm street from
Susan Spencer, through one of which
lots the water course or drain ran,
caused to be erected an embanllment
of dirt, clay and stone on the inside of
his front fence on Elm street, and ex-
tended it across the fence line about
five or six feet, completely stopping
up and obstructing the drain, and caus-
ing the water accustomed to flow there
in to back up and collect in a large
pool on Elm street.
In consequence Elm street and other
streets farther down are flooded when
ever it rains, and great damage to
public and private interests is said to
result.
A. n. Haggerty president of the bor-
ough council, has made an affidavit to
the effect that Girardo's action In
blocking up the stream has caused and
VIII in future cause great damage and
inconvenience. And that this water
course was built for the purpose of
carrying away the water that collects
above Elm street and was in use for
seven years prior to the purchase of
the lots by Girardo. A similar afIida-
Wit was sworn to by John Gerrity. n
property owner on Franklin street, and
others.
An Injunction Asked for.
The bill in equity was filed by Attor-
ney T. ]. Duggan, solicitor for the
borough, and the prayer is that Girardo
may be enjoined from stopping the
flow of water, and court is asked to
order the removal of the embankment.
Judge Edwards granted a prelimin-
ary injunction, and fixed Wednesday.

Japan Ahead of China.

Japan, i'll spite of her mistakes, stands
for light and civilization. Her institu.
tions are enlightcned. Her laws, drawn
by European jurists, are equal to the
best we know, and they are justly ad.
ministered: Her punishmcnts are hu.
name. Her scientific and sociological
ideas are our own. China stands for
darkness and savaSery. Her science is
ludicrous superstition; her law is bar.
barous; her punishments are awful; her
politics are corruption; her ideals are
isolation and stagnation.
In thousands of Yamens throughout
China men are tortured every day, hung
up by the thumbs, forced to kneel upon
chains, beaten with heavy bamboos,
their ankles cracked, their limbs broken.
Every week men are publicly crucified
and hacked to death by the thousand
outs" How is anybody to desire the ex-
tension of the sway of the latter rather
than that of the former without avow-
ing himself partisan of savagery?--

CABINET SUMMONED.
Rosebery's Government. Said
to Be in a Very Precarious
Condition.
A VERY HASTY MEETING
Supposed for Some Moments
That the Government Had
Been Defeated.

LONDON, Feb. 20.-There is much gos-
sip in political circles, owing to the fact
that Lord Roseberry, the prime minis
ter, upon his arrival at the official resi-
dence hastily summoned meeting OF
the cabinet The measures taken to
summon the ministers were rather ex-
traordinary. Messengers were dispatched
in cabs TO the residences of the different
ministers and all came TO the meeting,
which lasted fully an honr. The pre-
carious condition of the party, as shown
by the recent narrow majority on va
rious questions in the house of commons
and the fact that Lord Rosebery had a
long conference at Buckingham palace
Monday afternoon with the queen, soon
after her arrival from the Isle of Wight,
and afterward held long conference
with the whips of the liberal party, all
serve to increase rumors. that
Dissolution of Parliament IL Imminent.
For several minutes when the vote
was being taken i'm the house of COM
mons ON Sir William Harcourt's motion
to close the address in reply to the
queens speech, it was confidently be-
heved by the members of the opposition
that it would be found that the govern
ment was defeated when the vote was
announced. In the crowded lobbies of
the house, it was impossible to ascertain
how the voting was going, but when
the division was nearly over, whisper
was circulated that the government was
defeated. The loudness of the cheers
with which the Liberals greeted the an
nouncement of the figures showed the
extent of their anxiety which was ap-
parently well justified, as the vote was
279 to 271, giving them but majority.

F, Above the Lower Animals.

+, Above the Lower Animals.
In the opinion of about four i'm every
five men the essential difference between
man and the inferior animals is that
man smokes tobacco Occasionally a pre-
oocious monkey has been taught to
drink beer and smoke pipe-Old Tom
in the London zoo, for instance-but
this only emphasizes the exclusive hu-
mauness of smoking. The monkey is
nearest kin to man and is in full prog
reas toward the human state AS the
uI.Ea temperance lecturers affirm, "A
dog wouldn't smoke the vile weed. +"
No other animal than superior man and
the anthrepoid ape will smoke. Perhaps
i'm the civilized white world one man in
five is the victim of some defect that
disqualifies him for smoking The de-
feet may be tendency to cancorous
growth, or it may be wife or mother
in-law. The remaining four are in the
full enjoyment of all their faculties
and the right to pursue happiness
through a cloud of tobacco smoke
Lack OF opportunity to smoke is with
out doubt the most affective evil under
which a majority of men suffer A
large proportion of men are employed
in Offices, stores and shops where rules
against smoking are rigidly enforced
This is entirely proper. No superior
smoker ever smokes while working. To
do that is to debase the luxury and to
take off the keen edge of the pleasure

most expert wine tasters never drink to
excess, but find that in moderation only
does the palate retain its power to de-

is allowable to smoke half dozen with

Is the imperative demand of the whole
system. Not to be able to do this is to
incur endless disorders of the nervous
system, the stomach and the entire di-

faculties. There is no better preparation
