"A Midnight Call' was presented last
evening at the theatre by The Ideals and
the audience was large and select one.

strong company win additional laurels. Miss

The latter is one of the best comedians seen
upon the boards of the local theatre this
season. Baby Johnson is certainly wonder

audience by her songs and dances, and was
encored repeatedly. One of the most

and Struck One of the Victims.
The other Struck by Timber.

4 fatal accident occurred yesterday after
noon at the NIahanoy City colliery by which

the breaking Of a rope used in hoisting gun
boats on dirt plane.
The accident occurred shortly after three
o'clock in the afternoon. The gunboat was
about to land at the top of the plane when
the rope parted, causing the boat to run down
the plane Mt lightning speed. John Schultz
and Peter Senick were NJ the bottom of the
plane. They heard the rumbling noise Of
the ear, but supposed the usual lowering
was being made. The noise of other opera
tions drowned the warning cries of others
who saw the danger. Schultz and SeniclI
discovered it too late. The former was
struck by tine boat, but escaped falling under
it in the final crash lie was picked up un-
conscious and bleeding at the mouth and
ears. He died at six o'clock last evening

struck the bottom of the plane the report
was like an explosion of dynamite. The
rope had been in use about five months.

WHATEVER may be thought of the po
litical philosophy of Thomas E. Watson,
whom the Populist Convention placed
on their ticket along with Bryan. it
must be conceded that his speech is
frank and felicitous. He is not trim
mer. His phrases are not capable OF two
or more meanings. At the same time he
preserves an unrufisd temper, and while
his terms are descriptive they are not
bitter. Men like Mr.. Watson undoubt
edly have a mission in our politics.
They speak the truth as they see it and
clear the air, even when they are not
able to lay foundation for the perma-
nent new order which they 30 ardently
long for.
1t would be of high utility to have
careful and trustworthy statistics of the
effects of wealth. The statement is
common that wealth enervates, that it
breeds luxury. that it generates caste,
that it tends to disregard of the primary
moralities. That it may do these and
other baleful things, and that it often
does, is undeniable. But does it neces-
sarily produce these effects, and are they
a uniform or prevailing sequence of
wealth? On this point we have no such
data as science requires before making
up judgment. We depend on random.
unsifted and unclassified observation.
May not our prejudice color our conclu-
sions? Or may it not be that the popu-
lar opinion has somewhat the same basis
as the old and unfounded maxim about
ministers SOILS and deacons' daughters?
Mr.. Gladstone is moved by the good
intention to show his holiness the Pope,
that the unity of even part of Christ
endom will be possible only where Rome
has greatly modified her assumptions,
and her position with respect to the
English Church. He is entirely correct
in this, but it is not in the least likely
that Rome will modify any of its OBJ
structive assumptions. Indeed, the
Pope's recent encyclical puts the supre-
macy of the papaey in the fore front as
the one thing which the English Church
must accept in order TO recognition"
The assumptions are at the bottom of
the divisions of the Christian host.
Should all the parties renounce their
assumptions and their presumption the
walls between most Of the sects would
be low enough to be stepped over.
Lord Rosebery has made the life
and death of Burns even more pathetic
than it has heretofore appeared to every
one who has dwelt on the "owre true
tale" His picture Of Burns as he lay
dying is vividly livid. The brilliance of
the poets genius and the peculiar lustre
of his increasing fame throw that death
scene into pitiable shadow. Every
source of distress-pain, debility, help
lessness, poverty, debt, anxiety, accumu-
lated upon him; and over all brooded
the terrible, impenetrable cloud of the
consciousness that he had brought his
misery on himself and his family 1t is
easy to forgive the faults of man like

The anticipated reduction Of the
lumber of saloons in Chicago, accord
e to the figures of the Collector of the
local Internal Revenue office, has failed
to materialize to any appreciable extent.
1t was asserted some time ago that the
brewers trust intended to close up 800
or more saloons. The month of July is

al tax is paid to the government. Col
lector Mize gave out the official figures.

reckon with the tremendous fact, that
natural law and Divine Providence are
alike inexorable. He that soweth to the
flesh shall reap corruption. There is
no salve for that sore.
The Professor of Humanity" DR..
w. M. Ramsay, of Aberdeen. should be
an authority on human traits. One of
his maxims is, "the most sensitive part
of civilized man is bis pocket" All OBJ
servers agree substantially with DR..
Ramsay. An orator was reported the
other day as saying. This election will
go according to the pocket Of the voter"
He did not mean that the voter would
sell himself in the political market to
the highest bidder-a thing that some
times happens and puts the decision of
great interests on the competitive basis
Of the biggest bribe. But he meant that
the voters in every section and in every
class will determine their votes this time
by what they believe to be their pecu-
mary interests.
There are two applications of this
rule. A voter may say. this course may
not be strictly honest nor for the best
interests of the country in all sections;
but it is for the benefit of myself person
ally, subserves the interest of my class
or section, and therefore is the course
for me and my neighbors. Such voter
adopts the maxim Of famous political
boss who remarked that eternity for him
meant till the election is over. Or he
may say, am not sure that this course
is best for me today or for my section
Immediately; but am sure it is best for
both in the end because it is honest and
because it contsmplates the welfare of
the whole country. Itmay be said that
in each instance the voter goes accord
ing to his pocket; but in one case pocket
and principle coincide; in the other the
voter pockets his principles.

THE CHILDREN'S CRUSADE IN THE
THIRTEENTH CENTURY.
BY REV. MARY ]. DELoNG.

In two articles printed in The UNI
vERsALIsT few months ago, we gave
an account of the children crusade in
France in the thirteenth century and
it's disastrous consequences. The same
effort had been made by the pope to
inaugurate the sixth crusade in Ger
many that we have seen him making
in France. The disappointments and
failures, the hardship and sufferings
which had attended former attempts,
had made the people unwilling to
undertake another. While things
were in this condition the pilgrims
who returned from the shrine at St.
Deny's to their homes in the cities
and villages along the Rhine, brought
news of the preaching of Stephen of
Cloyes.
In village near Cologne, city of
Rhenish Prussia ON the river Rhine,
there lived boy, about twelve years
of age whose name was Nicholas. 1t
appears that though his imagination
had been stirred by the story of the
heroic men who had fought in Pales
tine, he had no disposition to try to
initiate them. He heard with lively
sentiments of sympathy of the work
of Stephen, but he had no heart to
assume the role of leader and proph-
ct; he was induced to do so only by
the persuasion of his father. The
father, whatever his motive might
have been, wrought upon the mind of
his son, by one device or another,
until the boy, either as an act of obe-
dience, or as a call from God, con-
sented to the fathers wishes: he went
to Cologne and began preaching
Children's Crusade.
In the year 1852, the Archbishop of
Cologne had joined the forces of
Frederick, Emperor of Germany, in
his attack on the city of Milan, and
had brought back, as his share of the
plunder, the bones of the three Wise
Men of the East, who came to do
homage to the infant Jesus in the
manger at Bethlehem. 1t has been
found out since that one of these
bones is the skull of young child;
from which it appears that the people
were badly deceived. But the story
told these deluded people was that
these particular bones had been dis
covered by the Empress Helena and
carried to Constantinople.
The Emperor removed them from
their shrine in that city, and gave
them to the Bishop of Milan. When
Frederick sacked Milan, the Arch
bishop of Cologne took them home
with him and they are there now
They are kept in gold box of great
value in private room in the magni-
ficent cathedral of that city. They
can be seen by any one curious
enough to pay a German thaler for
the privilege. At the time Nicholas
began his preaching there these
bones were held as sacred relics and
thousands of people made yearly pill
grimages to their shrine. Nicholas,
therefore, found the way paved for
his success very much as Stephen
had at st. Deny's. 1t is estimated
that forty thousand children gathered |
there in the space of month. These
German children had no intention of |
fighting the Saracen for the possess
