by the state railroad commissioners
last week to find out the real cause OF
the terrible accident on the New York
Central railroad near Garrison's, on
Sunday morning Of October "a, last, in
which twenty-one persons lost theii

Of the wreck was nothing but a pure
simple washout, super-induced by un.

The history of men who have been
elected to the senate Of the United
States by the votes or cooperation of
of the party opposed'to that to which
they belong has been one Of political
failure and individual discomfort.
Not man who has thus occupied a
Senatorial seat coming through the
support Of the opposition party and in
defiance Of the wishes of the large ma
iorty ofhis own party has ever made a
reputation, social standing or political
future. The Senate has been a political
and social grave yard to all men who
have occupied seats in it through
methods Of that sort.

5th.-On December IA, 1895, by and
with the authority of the probate
court of Lorain County, Ohio, Della
Mullin as guardian of Mary Ann Null
lin, and Della Mullin acting in her own
behalf, 8 Id for the consideration of
| 100000 and conveyed the prem
ises in the petition described to Norton
T. Horr and Chas. w. Horr, who ever
since have owned and held legal title
to the same.
8th.--In the settlement Of an action
instituted in the common pleas court
of Lorain County, Ohio, in July, 1895,
The Warwick Electric Manufacturing
Company entered into contract with
Esther A. Horr, the owner of the ad-
jacent premises, as set forth in her
cross-petition in this cause; which
contract provided for the operation
and conduct of the excavation made on
the premises aforesaid, in such manner
as not to interfere with the vested
rights, of the said Esther A. Horr, to
the flowage ef"water through and upon
her adjoining premises. &1
7th.-That the labor performed and
materials furnished under the various
mechanics liens found herein to exist
herein upon the said premises was per-
formed and furnished between the
making Of the contract of May 3rd, and
the time Of the sale of the property to
the Horrs. The court finds that the
following named persons hold valid
and subsisting mechanics liens on the
premises described in the petition sub
ject only to the claim of the HoIrs as
hereinbefore fixed, in the sums set op-
posite their respective names, with
interest from May 10, 1897.
1t should be remembered that the
Supreme Court decides all legal ques-
tions solely from the finding Of facts
as laid down by the Circuit court. In
conclusion I will say that the blame
for this unfortunate complication rests,
not on my brother or myself, but up
on the lien holders and others who un-
wisely trusted and did business with
IN irresponsible swindler and convict
such as the President Of the defunct
Warwick Company has now been prov

warned the people Of Wellington
against this man Cunningham. but
were in turn reviled for their wise ad-
monitions. We cannot expect some
thing for nothing, nor electric lights
for $40. year each. Many Of the lien
holders knew that the Warwick Co.,
was slippery concern and charged
the Company a long price for allthey
sold it. These lien holders took theil
chances of getting their pay, and
they have no one to blame bu
themselves for the sequel.

placed in such confined quarters,

covering over them was so close
that air circulated with difficulty.
For 23 days they were kept in this
condition on a .lurching ship. They
lived for this long period in their

to cause disease. But the con

WATER.

Our medical friends have very
much to be thankful for We print
in another column an article from
the Medical Record, describing
the opinions of the physicians,
who lived two hundred years ago,
on the uses of water. They did
not forsee the powerful agent wa
ter would become in the Nine
teenth century, in increasing the
need of the medical profession. 1t
is not surprising that the modern
physician smiles at the increased
use of ice, and the multiplication
of the soda fountains. While rum
cripples it's hundreds, ice cold wa
ter, it is said, cripples it's thou
sands. We notice that it is the
unwritten law of medical men not
to suggest or enlarge upon the
dreadful evils of intemperance in
the use of alcohol or ice water.
1t is a cunning profession. How
ironical they must be in their
secret thoughts.

This is the only remedy that is
known to be certain preventive of
pneumonia. Among the many thou
sands who have used it for colds and

of a single case having resulted in

THE ROMAN CATHOLIC UNIVER.
SITY.

Many people who call themsel-
YES good Christians, but have lit
tie confidence in the proposition
that the Lord rules the world,
have been greatly disturbed in the
United States. because the RO
man Catholic Church has founded
a great university in Washington
City, and proposes to make 1t
the most important seat OF learn
ing in the country. But these
good people forget that the more
YOU give men and women thor
ough education i'm and knowledge
of the laws that govern the world
the more quickly they detect false
religions, or the nOn-essential and
weak spots in all religions. The
Catholic Church has not been in
clined to establish institutions,
where science and general litera-
ture are taught, but it has main
tanned theological seminaries, and
made doctrinal education the
main subject of instruction. But
the Pope and some of the advanc-
ed Catholics realize the demand
for broad, general education in
the United States, and they fear
that if the Church does not fur
nish it, the rising generation, born
i'm the Faith, will drift away to
the PrOtestants seats of learning.
So they are forced to keep abreast
of the age, and are doing it in
part, through the great university
i'm Washington.
In order to prevent the Ameri
can spirit from becoming too ram
pant in the university, the faculty,
OF nearly all of the members OF i
were furnished by the College o.
the Propaganda in Rome from
which they came equipped witt
the most orthodox training. Bu1
already the American Or liberia
spirit proves too powerful fol
Papal control. The retirement OF
Bishop Keane from the presiden
cy of the Washington University
was to some extent caused by the
hostility of MOnsignor Schroeder
who is UltramOntaue or closely
allied to the Propaganda in Rome
But the American party has final
ly succeeded in driving him out
All this indicates clearly that the
Church is gradually being recon
structed in America, on a broader
basis and much more on the lines
of liberal thought. This, again,
means that the Church is work
ing towards the general harmony
in all theological thought, though
that may not be reached in a cen
fury.
Some of the ablest of the Pro
testant thinkers welcomed thi
new departure of the Roman Cath
Ollie Church, in founding grea
university, because they saw in i
the admission of the right to rea
son on broad lines, and they saw
that no human power could shu
in for any long period the mos
important of mans relations OF
earth, and place over the doors
the warning, mo reason admitte'
here" The triumph of the liberia
wing is significant.

AS the surroundings of Florida
home are much enhanced by oeauti-
full lawn Or grass plot it is one of the
necessities that attention be given to
this subject at an early period. The
loose sand everywhere so prevalent in
the interior of Florida as well rs on
the seashore is undesirable in the vi
cinity of the door yard, and frequent
effort is made to render this portion
of the home attractive by the collec
ton of grass of several kinds of va
rieties; mostly selected are the Ber-
muda and the Augustine, both unde-
sirable in the absence of something
better. The first from it's habit of in
truding itself where it is not wanted
and the impossibility of graduating
it when desired. Of the Augustine
variety, it is a coarse grass, runs over
the top of the ground and unless
given regular care is uninviting in ap-
pearance, leaving bare places at
times as we'll as yellow faded ap-
pearance during the heat of the sum-

Having had a satisfactory expe-
rience with both the above varieties
during my residence of fourteen years
in Florida near the sea beach, L be-
lieve that benefit will be conferred
upon your readers by relating it. On
July IS, 1894 a couple of gentlemen
stopped at my landing with a steam
launch; they came from the Indian
river and intended to remain week
or so at Coronado beach. I assumed
the care of the launch which was
moored at my dock and [ had fire.
quent visits from them during the
time they remained. I was busily en-
gagged in setting out Augustine grass
at the time when our conversation
turned to the desirability of the diff
ferent varieties. Mr.. Powell the gen
tleman referred to, stated he possess
ed variety of grasses which gave
better satisfaction than any other
that came under his observation and
gave it the name of carpet grass ana
stated it made a beautiful lawn and

I arranged for a small sample oy

rived in due time which was August 8,
1894 The quantity received was two
or three ounces, which I separated in
to small pieces of two joints each and
planted it in three different places IN
order to test it's enduring qualities.
One portion was planted on soil OF
broken oyster shell, hard, dry and
high. The next on sandy loan ex-
tremely dry, subject to continued loot
