Equal Pay Bill Vetoed.
Mayor Mcclellan of New York has
vetoed the bill recently passed by the
state legislature equalizing the salaries
Of men and women teachers In the
higher grades of the schools of the

four grounds: First, violation of the
home rule principle; second, local au-
thorities already have the power to do
the same; third, discrimination In ia
vor of a certain class of teachers;
fourth, that It would destroy the elias

The bill was promptly passed over the
mayors veto by the senate and assem-

Boat Destroyed-Lives Lost.

Grand Haven, May 21.-The Cros-
by Line passenger steamer Naomi,
burned to the waters edge last
night while on her way from here to
Milwaukee. She had fifty passen-
gers on board. Four of the crew
were burned to death and a number
Of passengers injured. Some very
badly. A considerable number were
from Detroit and eastern Michigan.
Those among the Detroiters on board
were j. w. Rhodes, dying in Grand
Rapids hospital; Grant House, 81
Montcalm street; Arthur Jones,
Cass avenue; B. P. Gozen.
The Naomi was built at Wyan-
dotte in 1881, and owned by e. G..
Crosby, of Milwaukee. She was 204
feet long, 35 feet beam The steam
was discovered between the decks
in the forward hold and in spite of
the desperate efforts of the crew, the
| flames spread with terrific rapidity.
The fire swept the entire length of
the ship and the upper works burn
ed like finder.
The escape of the passengers is
considered a miracle. Many of them
were taken off in their night clothes,
while scarcely any of them got on
more than part Of their clothes.
Capt. Thomas Trial was the last
man to leave the steamer and his
clothes were almost burned off his
| body
A panic reigned from the moment
the fire was discovered but the
pumps were manned and frantic eff
forts were made to food the flames.
With rare presence of mind, the
captain kept the crew well in hand
and the passengers were crowded in
to the life boats in the nick of time.
| The Steamer Kansas, en- route
from Grand Haven to Milwaukee came
on the scene and succeeded in taking
all the passengers from the small
boats and the burning ship except
| four deck handles who were missing.
The Kansas at once put back to
Grand Haven where the passengers
were landed today.

LOCAL OPTION MOVEMENT.

Rev. T.. &. Robinson, Superintend-
ent of the Missouri Anti-Saloon League,
came down from st. Louis last Thurs
day at the instance Of the Ministerial
Alliance aud advised with that organi-
zation as TO the proper steps 10 take
in formulating local option cam
paign in this county. Mr Robinson

night to n fair audience, though not
nearly so large as the crowd that
greeted DR.. Palmule when he ectured
here on the 29lh ult
Mr.. Robinson touk for his subject
"Christian Co.Operntion." He sad
that there were various avenues of labor
for the church, and that the work of
combating the evils Of the liquor
traffic and protecting the home against
the ravages of the saloon was church
obligation. He had engaged in this
work us bis special line Of church
work, laboring with and for the Anti
Saloon League, which, in contradis-
tinction to being nou- partisan and uon-
scotarian is omni-partisan and omni-
sectarian, and bis appeal was TO all
churches, Catholic and Protestant, and
to all political parties, to help in the
work of controlling the liquor traffic
in such way as to reduce its evils &c
a minimum. He said that the league
stood for education, legislation and
law enforcement.
He dwell strongly upon the theory
of education; that the people must be
educated up to the point of voting dowr
the evil. He told .. work that the
League had done in some of the coun.
ties OF this State that have voted
against the licensing Of saloons, coun'
ties in which the sentiment was all the
wrong way, but systematic work and
education wrought change that re-
suited in maiorilies against the licencet
saloon from 600 and upward 1t tocs
two or three years of systematic worE
in several Of the counties TO bring
about results, and the nti.saloon peo-
pie waited until they were practically
sure of a victory before petilioning fol
the election.
Educating the people, creating q
healthy sentiment for enforcement o.
the laws and getting ready before
mating the final strike, seemed to bt
the logic of his argument and the plar
he would advise before putting th'
question to test in any county
