ANOTHER EARTHQUAKE.

Another manifestation of Providence has taken

The horrors of the San Francisco earthquake
still fresh in the memories Of the living. The
effects of that still later and appalling Chill
disorder not yet fully known. Whilst pom
dering ON these dire disasters the news is flashed
from another part of the globe telling that Kings
ton, the capital of Jamaica, is laid low, that
one thousand two hundred of its inhabitants have
lost their lives and now ten millions worth of prop

The rural districts not yet heard from. Then
il may be possible that the total number of lives

IN their respective spheres and both had many and
great, opportunities for doing good. Angela Bur
det-Coutts in her assistance the poor endeavored
to avoid In the objects of her charity the cultva-
ton of the idea of dependence. She saw the dens
in which the poor of East London lived and deter
mined to sweep them away She purchased the
sums of Bethnal Green where the wretchedly poor
herded. tore them down and built model lodging
houses and made them practically self sustaining.
The system followed in other parts of the East
End and there the name of Miss Coutts was held
to be that of angel sent to uplift the poor and
the orphan. But the benevolent lady did not
strict her charities to one locality or one section
Of the people. When troubles befell the Spialtelds
weavers and the Bermondsey tanners as a result of
trade depression she helped them all either starting
them in some small business or assisting them to
emigrate to Australia. During the cholera cpl
demic of the early sixties she enrolled and paid a
battalion of nurses and furnished free medicine and
Undertaking. In one week the Burdette-Coutts
fund supplied for the cholera victims Of the east
end 100000 OF food such as meat, bread sage,
tapoca, port wine beef and other necessares for
the sick. She was especially good to orphan chill
dren. She instituted the National society and home
for children an institution which secures protec-
ton for the orphan and the neglected child But
her most important work for the young is that
which she has done through the establishment Of
technical institutions and schools at which the
child of the poor may acquire useful and prac
teal knowledge. She gave largely to the aid OF the
famine sufferers in Ireland in 1S45-6-7 and again
in 1854 to the Irish fishermen and latter opened
for them fishing schools where they taught the
mysteries of their calling by experts sent and paid
by this most charitable lady. The records of her
charities would fill volume. Her life has been
a blessing to her own land and indeed to the world.
The English nation has honored itself by honorng
the memory ST this truly devout and charitable
woman.

state OF California, and no one. not even those

because ALL the good and tho bad like to hear the
truth by IN Honest and sincere soul.
OF all the touching scenes and manifestations
of sympathy there was nothing solemn and
pathetic than the tokens of love and affection
shown By the real mourner, his bosom friend Arch
bishop Riordan in Holy Cross cemetery. The gen
erous tears which he shed whilst reading the last
prayers of the dead bespeak rational love and ten
der affection which nothing but the sacred tie of
religion could beget, nourish and sustain. The
weeping Of our Lord at the grave of Lazarus was
taken as mark of his great love for the deceased.
Behold how he loved him Twice, during the re
cital of the short prayers said in the cemetery
Archbishop Riordan faltered could not speak, the
tears flowed. These tears proclaimed his love and
affection. It began in 1853 when Archbishop Rior-

Some people seem to think that the church is

church he is either good or hypocritica A church
member may be either. but it is probable most

were good the church would need to exist only to
keep them good. But that condition of goodness

Some time next summer a statue Will be erected
IN Peoria, ILL.,. to the memory of the late Colonel
Robert 9. Ingersoll. Colonel Ingersoll was one of
the most brilliant orators the nation has known
his intellectual endoWments were far from medic
ere; his life from a financial standpoint a success
and we must credit him with ordinary honesty of
conviction. However, his oratory was iconoclastic:
his intelligence was misdirected, and his life
miserable failure from any other than money
standpoint. We cannot condemn him for his mis-
conception of the holy scriptures particularly.
though it took most vigorous course He was
man, and he, like the Protestant denominations at
tempted to interpret the Infinite with finite mind,
with results to him that proved most disastrous,
fer his misinelpretation led him to deny God. the
devil heaven and hell, led him to blaspheme the
Holy Name, and question the existence of eternity.
His statue will stand as monument to one of the
most horrible examples the nation has of the right
of individual interpretations Of the scriptures.
