Flames in New York.

Flames in New York.
Fire caused panic in Smith & Nc
Neill's hotel at New York. Hundreds Of
guests were in the restaurant when the
alarm was given, and they stampeded to
the street. When they found that the
fire was confined to the roof they re-
turned to their meals, but on the upper
floors the police and firemen were busy
saving sixty panic-stricken servant girls.
The fire started in the laundry, where
twenty girls were ut work. Many Of them
attempted to jump to the pavement, five
floors below. Seven had to be carried
out through the smoke by the police and
one cook was terribly burned. She was
taken to the Hudson street hospital. The
property loss is $4,000.

Explanatory.

"Then will 1 sprinkle clear water upon
you: ''the sprinkling Of water as sym
bolizing publication is found in the cere-
monial system of the nation.
"a new heart: we must remember, Of
course, the wide range Of meanings Of the
word heart. Yet in this phrase the pres
ent accepted meaning comes near enough
to Ezekiel's! He did not mean merely
the seat of the affections, and neither do
we, when we quote his words or refer to
them. He meant rather the whole central
being of the man, including and centering
In his will; and so do we when we use
the word. But this was new and strange
doctrine in Ezekiel's time. Other prophets
Of the exile were indeed joining in the
same teaching; some of the poets Of the
nation in their psalms were doing like
wise. But it was teaching that required
long emphasis to impress upon a stiff
necked and rebellious race. There has
been no better text than this in recent
lessons for the definite gospel application.
II will put my Spirit within you: as il
to say, l will breathe my breath upon
you, into you. My power shall be your
power, my inspiration yours. The power
of God comes into the renewed life as a
new principle from without, to re-enforce
the purified and uplifted impulses from
within. For illustrations read Paul's let
ters and the biography of good men.
Notice how plain, simple, homely are
the fruits Of the Spirit in this ancient
gospel. Those who receive the new heart
and the divine spirit shall dwell in the
land that Jehovah gave to their faith
ers;" they shall be saved from unclean-
ness, they shall have good harvests, good
fruit crops, no famine; they shall learn
wholesome repentance Tvs. 2S-3D. These
were the things that would appeal to the
Jews to whom Ezekiel was preaching.
Conversion means many things to many
men. To some it means largely the
amendment Of temporal in.auities, the
Strengthening of crooked lines in the life.
To others the change is chiefly inward
and spiritual.
Not for your sakes do this: phrase
characteristic of the book. Jehovah is
gracious for his own sake, because 1t is
his nature. He gives freely and uncalcu-
latingly. and asks no fattery of men.
'In the day that l shall have cleansed
you from all your iniquities l will also
cause you to dwell in the cities and the
wastes shall be builded."
An impressive lesson in the power of
religion may be found in the connection
between a religious reformation and out
ward prosperity. 1t is the man who is
right with God who brings things to pass
in a material way. That this law Is sub
ject to limitations and qualifications does
not destroy it's general soundness.

NOveIists and Babies.

The Medical Press and Circular brings
serious charge against modern novel
lists of being absurdly untrue to nature
in one most important particular. 1t
appears that the novelist of today abso-
lutely ignores vital statistics He or she
is lavish enough with marriages and
revels in deaths, but seldom condescends
to a birth.
Now, if nature acted in this way The
Medical Press and Circular is right in
saying that before long there would be
neither novelists nor readers left upon
the face of the globe. For instance, sup
pose things really went on in the style
of Mr.. Anthony Hopes ''Prisoner of
Zenda." In this stirring tale there are
on an average five deaths to every chap
ter, with not single birth in the whole
book. At this rate, as The Medical
Press points out, the world would
speedily become depopulated.
In Dickens day it was far different,
and in David Copperfeld'' and other
books he brought plenty of young hope
fuls into the world, in proper keeping
with the birth rate of the country. Did
he not give prominence TO Mrs Camp
and Betsy Prig, whose sole concern was
to usher in the coming generation2

RAMPAGE OF AN ESCAPED STEER
Ten Persons Injured by Runaway
SfockNard Animal.

NEW YORK. Oct 16.-From one OF the
stockyards on the North River a steer es-
eaped at noon yesterday, and before he
was landed in the pound, about midnight
last night, he had spread excitement
through that part of the west side between
Thirty-firs and Fortieth Streets. So far
as the records of the West Thirty seventh
Street police station show, no one was Sc
verely hurt by the animal, but the num-
ber of persons knocked down during the
excitement is placed at ten. Two or three
damaged bicycles. a broken window pane
and a wrecked express wagon are also
charged against the steer.
About noon the animal went charging
out Thirty-frst Street and darted north
in Eighth Avenue. A bicyclist at Thirty
eighth Street attracted the animals atten-
ton. By the time the wheelman could
pick himself DIP again and estimate the
damage to his bicycle the steer had turn
ed into Thirty eighth Street, scattered a
group of FIVE more wheelmen and was
heading full speed for the North River.
AT the pier he turned, but his pathway
back was comparatively clear.
On the pavement stood Edward O'Brien,
of 4O6 West Thirty-eighth Street, and in
his hand was a hastily constructed lasso.
There was the swish of rope in air, and
as the moose settled down over the animal S
neck Charles Fleischman, of 40S West Th1r-
ty-eighth Street, and William Gerrity, OF
401 West Thirty eighth Street, rushed to
O'Brien's aid They grabbed the end OF
the rope. the steer tossing his neck, and
all three men went down. Valiantly they
refused to let go and were dragged nearly
fifty feet. Freed once more, the animal
