An Archbishop's Warning.

Archbishop William H. OConnell
was heard yesterday for the frat time
since bis conservation as coadjutOr arch
bisbop at the dedication of St Patrick's 5
Church, in Lowell, Mass. Archbishop
O'Connell, referring TO the Lowell neigh
borhood as a great industrial center, said
10 part :
"When inordiuate greed for wealth
presses the laborer beyond endurance,
then work becomes slavery, and slavery
is the mother of revolt. If with increased
wealth, with prosperity which floods the
land as il God were showering His bless
ings upon the nation, hand in hand went
q corresponding gratitude to God, all
would yet be well. But when mems
hearts grow only harder when the bless
ings of heaven fall on stony ground,
thorns and thistles grow instead OF
wholesome grain. The dangers which
are now confronting US and which, If
men do pot have care, will assume
alarming proportions, are in reality
nothing new, they are bat the repetition
of the evils of pagsnism which Christ
came to heal. The lessening OF labor
and the increase of wages will never in
themselves settle the eternal unrest OF
humanity. The blame is not with any
one class--the fault is general and is
daily increasing"

ANurse,s Terrible Deed.

Rosa Naegle, goyerness and nurse
of Berne, Switzerland, returning. to New
York from visit to ber native land, sud-
denly became maniac gu the Holland
Americs steamship Nieuw Amsterdam
which arrived at New York yesterday
from Rotterdam and Boulogne.
On the afternoon OF the fifth day out
from Bculogue, November 10, in mid
ocean, while the liner was plunging
through white crested three-storled seas
the young gOverness saw on the deck be-
low her group OF children Of the second
cabin playing ring gsmes. Some OF their
mothers, who could stand the motion OF
the snip. we're sitting near by. Miss
Neaele ran down to the children and be-
gan dancing with them and singing, In
German. Occasionally she picked up
one of the smallest and held it arms
length above her head while it crowed
and gurgIed. .,
She seemed to be especially fascinated
by one-yeaT- DID Aaron Gnoowski, who
was too unsteady on his legs to form a
link in the juvenile circle and contended
himself with a plsce TO one side.

and ran to the ships rail and laid the
little one on it, The mother ran toward
Miss Natgle just as the governess, with
a laugh heard over halt the ship. raised
the child and tossed il into the sea.
Then the governess turned to the
mothers and let out series of shrieks
that sent them and their little ones
scampering for protection.
1t was thought that she intended to
make a sea sacrifice of others as she ran
after the children, but before she had
gone half across the deck she was seized

She had gone stark mad.

Mr.. Simon as waist designer and went

Mr. Simon was sitting at his desk talk

men, when Nine de Massey, black
haired, black-eyed, pale, tall and we'll

the Office door and walked in. Simon

De Massy. -.
"Well, you won't get il now" said
Simon, turning to Travis.
The woman turued around and stepped
ont into the hallway, fumbling at a
pocket in the skirt Of her tight.iitting
black dress. Simon went on talking to
Travis and neither of the men noticed
that Nine. De Massy was still just out
side the Office door, still fumbling with
the pocket. The next thing they knew
she was standing in the doorway with a
revolver in her hand, eyes flashing, face
flushed, evidently furiously angry. Be
fore she could be seized she fired three
shots. Two went wild, but one bullet
entered Simon's body below the shoulder
blade. Nine De Massy was arrested. Mrs.
Massey today alleged that her shooting
of Simons had been prompted by the re-
liel that he had been Instrumental in caus-
ing the death Of her husband by poison

ELLEN TERRY.

Two qualities there are in Miss Ellen Terry that no amount of nervousness can mar. Nothing can obscure for us her sense of beauty and her buoyant jollity. It is this latter quality that ex- plains the unique hold she has on the affections of the public Was ever a, creature so sunny as she? Did ever any one radiate such kindness and good humor? To no one, I think, so justly as to her may be applied that expres- sive phrase in modern slang, "a great
 dear" I have often heard people deny that she is great in the art of acting; but her power of endearing herself
 across footlights is, in itself, such as to earn for her an indisputable title to greatness. This power of hers would not, I think, be less if she had hap pened not to be so beautiful and so graceful in her person and in her. me- thods. To painters and other artist, of course, her primary appeal has been through the quality of her face, and through the sense of beauty that Is evil dent in all the inflexions of her voice, and in her every movement, pose of gesture MT. Theordore Watts-Dun- ton writing the other day in the '"Trib- une," recorded his opinion that Miss Terry has more of the temperament of the poet than any actress or any actor
 of this age. And painted would say, doubtless that she had more of the temperament of the paintor. For my part, I am not sure that in sheer sense of beauty, and in power of creating beautiful effects on the stage, Miss Ter " Is greater than Mrs. Patrick Camp bell. I think it would be hard to de- , eide justly between these two. But 1t is certainly natural and inevitable that in England Miss Terry should be held to be unrivaled. For she Is so very essentially English. Or, rather, she is just what we imagine to be essentially English The sunny climate of Italy produces a very happy race of men and women, whilst the English climate produces a very dreary race. And yet the poetic genius of Italy has tended
 always in the directions of gloom, whilst the poetic genius of England has been, in the main, cheerful. Perhaps art ip always, everywhere, in opposition to climate-an unconscious reaction from climate. And this, since the majority of people do not use their own eyes introspectively, but see themselves always as they are told to see them selves by their national poets, it may be that the majority of men and wo-
