LATELY little is being said in the press in regard
to Mr.. Thomas w. Lawson's great scheme Of getting

reforms, but his actions do not inspire confidence

If Mr.. Lawson had succeeded in his undertake
ing this country might have witnessed calamity in
financial circles that would have outrivaed Black
Friday. Not-that Mr.. Lawson himself would have
brought about the crisis but through the agency Of
rumors disseminated by his enemies. His penchant
for speculation would do the rest. Perhaps it is
better for all concerned that the scheme did not get
very far from the typewriter.

HerOiSnz of o. Fireman.

The public naturally expect the members Of a
fire department to show extraordinary bravery when
occasion demands it. In this the public is never
disappointed; for when there is need Of hazardous
undertakings in saving human lives from burning
building, no class of persons quick to
jeopardize their own than those men belonging to a
city fire department.
When brave John Berwin lost his life at the
West Hotel fire recently, IN the performance of his
duty, everyone recognized that hero had met an
untimely end He gave his life in saving others.
What nobility of soul this hero fireman exhibited
in the face of great danger! Surely his sefsacrfc-
ing deed deserves ample recognition. An imposing
granite monument should be erected to his memory
Pagan Rome and Athens honored it's heroes and why

MARRYING Dr11NE0rds.


ONE Of the worst failures woman can make, is
to marry an habiual drunkard believing that reforma

experiment has met with successful results but in
the majority of cases they dismal failures The
motive prompting such an undertaking, is laudahle
one but how often have these trusting persons had
their hopes thwarted and they compelled to endure
poverty and disgrace. The story is enough to make
angels weep with pity. Such trusting sympathy is
worthy of better fate than washtub and universal
But this is what these marriages generally terminate
in and, notwithstanding it's final consequences,
thousands embrace the opportunity to reform drunk
