An attempt was made Monday morning to burn the bridge over a. culvert on the VVabash Railway, one mile east of Lafayette, Ind. A freight train came around the curve at full speed, and the engineer, seeing the ï¬re, put on steam and passed over safe- ly. A second section cf the train was flagg- ed and stopped before it reached the bridge and the train men put out the ï¬re. As the engineer of the ï¬rst train reached the burn- ing bridge he saw a. man run out from his hiding place near by and disappear in the woods. SHOT BY HER LOVER. A young Enzlishmanf attempted to mur- der Manel Barton, 1n the residence of her father, \Veaverston, Pa... on Sunday even- ing. He had been her aflianced lover, and she had just told him she could no longer receive his attentions, when he drew a re- volver and ï¬red two shots at her, one taking effect in her left ear. The crew of the sealing schooner W. P. Sayward, which was seized and taken to Sitku and who started tor Victoria. in boats and canoes, endured great hardships. They left Sitka. with seven days’ provisions and the trip occupied 17 days. For a. consider- able time their only food consisted of shell ï¬sh picked up on the beach. 0n arriving at Safe Cove the revenue cutter Penta. was found at anchor and sold them provisions su’ï¬icient to reach Fort Simpson, where the Hudson’s Bay ofï¬cials and others hospitably entertained them. The action of the Ameri- can ofï¬cials in setting them adrift with short provisions is looked upon as heartless in the extreme. FI ENDISH TRAMI’S. ‘D. L. Hiller lives on a. farm near Maple Grove with his mother and brother. Yes- terday morning when the brothers were absent at work two men called at the house and asked for something to eat. Mrs. ‘Hiller complied with their request. and when they had finished eating one of them picked upa poker and threatened to kill her. The old lady begged them to spare her life, whereupon the hrutes dragged her to the cistern and threw her in. The cistern is twelve feet deep anl was half full of water, but Mrs. Hiller clung to the lead pipe of the pump and managed to keep afloat until noon, when her sons returned, and she was taken out in an exhausted con dition. An investigation showed that the tramps had ransacked the house and ab- stracted $170 in cash, and $1,303 in certiï¬- ,cates. 'George Harwood, twenty years old, son of a farmer living near Ridgetown, Ont., as- saulted his father, it is claimed, about two weeks ago, and threatened to kill him. It is also charged that he attempted to kill his mother. The young man ran away from his home soon after the affair and went to Windsor. On Thursday afternoon Chief {Brains received a telegram from Ridgetown 'asking him to arrest Harwood on a charge of threatening the life of his father. \Vhen the ofï¬cer went to look for the young man he was in Detroit. The mother died about six days ago, and it is asserted that the young man is responsible for her death. TRAIN VVRECKERS. A passenger train on the B. D. 81. E. road was derailed, four and a half miles from Mount Pulaski, 111., last week. The train ran about 4' 0 feet on the ties before it was stopped. None of the cars were overturned and nobody was hurt. An examination of the rails revealed the fact that the spikes had been drawn from the ties and the ï¬sh plates removed, so that the rails spread as soon as the train struck them. Crowbars and other tools used in the ï¬endish work were found near the track in the weeds. Soul Communion. On July 27 the Spiritualists or Advanced Thinkersof tht United Statesengagedin what they termed a. soul communion.

The results. ac- cording to the reports, were marvellous. One Advanced Thinker relates that. at a St. Louis seance, “a friend visited us in the astral form, and although a stranger to everyone but myself‘and husband, he describ- ved all present, also an absent member, who 'had been detained by sickness that night, gave our positions in the circle, and the fact that our circle was triangular in shape and be repeated words that were spoken in the circle. Immediately after returning to his body and consciousness he wrote a. lettei to us detailing his visit and asking if he was correct. We answered by return mail, ‘ Yes, in every particular.’ †At New York the persons communing felt themselves con- nected both with Chicago and Nottingham, where circles were formed. They conversed with the participants in the solemnities in these places, and saw in addition both Jews and indians in distant countries taking part in spiritualistic demonstrations. The result was: “ a baptism of truth and harmony,†and a prayer from a. medium invoking most aublimely the presence of the higher angels to uplift humanity. A Massachusetts lady had a remarkable experience. The party having remained in silence for a. time, .after the manner of the Friends, Brother Bush became entranced ; and following this 'Lucreta Mott, Hannah Moore and other "‘loved controls †appeared, their gentle faces beautined by the soft, luminous “ halo surrounding them.†The lady declares that she “ felt transported with an unspeakable joy and realized the sublimity and sacred~ ness of soul communion between men and angels.†Another lady professes to have had a conversation with a. spirit answering to the name of Ad Hussam, and she avers that this spirit mentioned to her the name of a gentleman who is to become an adept and is to proceed to India in pursuit of further occult knowledge.

AIN “'KECKERS FOILED. CAST A DRI FT. An eviction has failed on an estate in South Cork belonging to Sir George St. John Uolthurst, sixth baronet, whose princi- pal seat is named Castle Blarney. A tenant named Timothy O‘Leary owed about $700 arrearages of rent and costs. The haronet's agent offered to accept $100 in full satisfac- tion, O‘Leary to surrender possession. He refused, and an eviction writ was issued. There was a. crowd of three hundred persons, headed by the secretary of the local branch of the National League. and a. band. 1‘, The aheriï¬s and ï¬aiiifl's were protected by twenty policemen in charge of a. district in- spector. When the party arrived, at seven o’clock in the morning, they found the house barricaded and a number of men in- "r f/v '“rr‘* ’7 ' 7 3 Mst‘ers became so serious that the Police Inspector ordered his men to load and ï¬re. The latter part of 1119 order, however, was not carried out. After seven hours of fruit less eflorh 1he evicLiou was abandoned. 1n the yard of the premises there is an open well ï¬fty feet deep. This was covered over with light laths and rushes, and had any sheriï¬'s assistants or policemen fallen into the trap laid for them they would, in all prghability, have been killed. 1 n, , 11', There were no arrests made, and the Na- tional Leaguers present shouted triumphant- ly as the sheriff abandoned his efforts to enforce the decree of the courts. Seeing the difï¬culty in forcing the door, some of the bailifls got up on the roof, but no sooner had they made an opening than they were attacked by those within, who shot out long poles at them, and one of them narrowly escaped being hurled to the ground. After ï¬ve hours‘ work the bailiffs forced an entrance to the ground floor, but having got this far they were assailed with stones and other missiles and assaulted with mugs dipped in boiling tar. l. in “12,, There is one disturbing element in the question of poverty in our country, says the New York Forum, which should be met by legislation in the sternest manner. This is the emptying of foreign aluishouses upon our shores. it is now a system, the name of pauper being saved by a temporary pecuni- ary help, but the pauper still remaining. This form of poverty has nothing to do with the main question. It is an irregularity that should not be allowed and which need ‘ not be allowed. The foreign pauper arrives here in ï¬lthy laziness and immorality, and is at oncea burden on the nation and on so- ciety. He degrades labor and fosters crime He is not the product of any commercial or economic principle in operation among us, but a deranging factor thrown in by base design. Nothing can be argued from his appearance against the general prosper- ity of our country or the opportunities of the industrious poor. In our view, the con- clusion of the whole matter is this, that puv- erty, as a calamity in our country, is (with the exceptions above noted) the result of persistent irnprovidence on the part of the poor, partly criminal and partly through the lack of exercise of the virtues of self-oe- nial and self control. While we believe that laws should restrain the rich (whether individual or corporative) from partiality .and injustice toward the poor in ï¬nancial matters, and while we know the poorer ‘ classes have a righteous ground of com~ lplaint in this direction, at the same time 1 we assert, as at the beginning, that the in- crease of riches does not increase poverty, but only increases the envy which is at the bottom of the Henry George movement. rupcu uhuauucu, nu: “UAVMKIU u no. u-..fl- were able to drop upon the Ends of the bailiffs.

The taunt of inconsistency has been freely levelled at the Americans, who have taken very decisive measures for keep- ing out undesirable immigrants, the British and other European nations evidently con sidering that bemuse Americans have boast- ed of offering an asylum to the oppressed, they should be willing to receive the off- scouring and social refuse of Europe in un limited quantities. It is somewhat surprising. in the face of this prevalent fceling. to learn that in Britain itself the influx of foreign pauperism is beginning to receive attention. For many years there has been a steady stream of continental immigration pourin; into the large English centers, especially London. A large proportion of these arrivals consist of those in destitute circumstances. Their competition is seriously felt by the British workingmen, and the cost of maintaining the idle and incapable among them largely increases the burdens of pauperism. The Government have announced their in- tention of appointing a Parliamentary com- mittee to inquire into the immigration of destitute aliens and report on the restrictive measures prevailing in other countries. Now that the British people are thus brought face to face with the problem of pauper immigration in their own country, they may perhaps be able to form a juster idea of the injury which they inflict on others by dumping their paupera in Canada. A systematic effort is about to be made by the British Government to encourage horse-breeding in the United Kingdom. The other day in the House of Commons Lord Ribblesdale stated that the Govern- ment had undertaken to ask for a. sum of £5,000 to be devoted to the purpose in Ire- land, of which £3,200 was for stallions, and he asked whether similar action was con- templated in the case of England and Scot- land. In reply the Marquis of Salisbury said that such was the intention of the Government. By consent of her Majesty, ‘ Queen's Plates will henceforth be devoted to the object of improving the breed of horses, and this will represent a. contribu‘ tion of £3,000 a. yanr. The Chancellor of the Exchequer also proposes to put in the estimate a. further sum making up an amount of £5,000 for the same purpose. The Government propose further, following the precedent set in Ireland. to assign the administration of this fund to an independ- ent trust. As the improvement of the breed of Canadian horses is a. matter of great importance to this country, the Dominion Government might well consider whether to take similar steps with that end in View. florscbrecding in England. Au Eviction Defeated Pauper Immigration. Unquestionably it is not for the womanâ€" who long ago passed her ï¬ftieth birthday without paradeâ€"but for the Queen that peculiar honour may be claimed. Yet, when We tum from colonial canonisation of the woman to Celtic denunciations of the Queen, we ï¬nd the latter equally phantasmal. The Queen has ofï¬cially as little responsibility for the sufferings of Ireland as Mrs. Cleve- land. To ascribe to the English monarch powers similar to those of an American Pre- sident is a delusion into which many mi- grate when they reach this country. It is our constitutional superstition. The Mayor of New York declared that he paid honour to the Queen, because, while visiting Eng~ land during our war, he learned that the non~intervention of England was due to her Majesty‘s personal friendship for us. Now, I was there, too, and am certain that the non-intervention was due to the friendship for us of the Euglish masses, and of their leadersâ€"Bright, Cobden, Peter Taylor and others. The Mayor's theory, if true, would justify personal animosity toward the Queen on the part of all censors of English wrongs. If she could successfully intervene in behalf of the American Union and emancipation, why has she not intervened against British oppressions in Ireland, Egypt, the Soudan. Burmzth? If she could control the hand of Palmerston, why not that of Salisbury ‘3‘ A L (“Inc-autu, Wu] uvu v ............... _, . The Queen has no power of that kind at all. That she has made her throne L.he tomb of every last relic of personal authority is the immediate jewel of her crown. The royal prerogative has been exercised once by Gladstone and once by Disraeli, but never by Queen Victoria. As the greatest writer on the Constitution has said, the Queen would certainly sign her own death~ warrant were it laid before her by the Minis- ters. On her accession, contemporaneous historians remarked that the youthful maiden followed the instructions and words of her Ministers with an intent exactness; the literal ï¬delity at that ceremony has|been followed by ï¬fty years of intelligent ï¬delity to the constitution. It needed but such a reign to sum up and consolidate all the re- sults of English revolutions, to embody the liberal progress of a thousand years, to send all arbitrary lawn to their fossil bed, to make England what its Laureate has claim- ed, the Crowned Republic. The last time an attempt was made to utilize the Queen politically is especially memorable as bearing upon her sex. In the agitation for female suffrage some of the American advocates of that measure had spoken of the Queen as representing the principle of the participation of woman in political power, and this notion found some. echo 'among the more ignorant friends of that cause in England. But a few years ago, when the subject was before Parlia- ment, :1. member read an extract from “ Our Life in the Highlands,†in which the Queen declared women unï¬t for politics, and that good Women will leave these things to men. There were cries of “Order!†throughout the House ofCommons, even the majority, to whom the sentiment was agreeable, recog- nising that it was unconstitutional to bring influence from the throne to bear on a de- bate in the Legislature. But the arrow had sped to its mark. The woman‘s declara- tion against the political aspirations of her sex was even feathered by cries of “ order i†which recognised the throne’s abdication of political'power. At the same time the many eminent and Worthy women now claiming the franchise in England felt sore about the incident. The question naturally suggests itself whether submissive readiness to sign measures passed by Parliament, however repugnant to herself, is consistent with the highest character. No one can doubt that the Queen has often done this, and that she would have signed Gladstone’s Home Rule bill as promptly as Salisbury‘s Coercion bill. To those who realise that every assertion of personal prerogative, even on their own side, forges a precedent that may be used on the other side, and restores a weapon which has normally proved fatal to human liberty, it will appear that the wisdom of Victoria as a woman is reflected in her strict constitutionality as a Queen. This is the open secret of the hom- age paid by the English people to a Queen who is neither beautiful or brilliant, and whose withdrawal of the throne from all political power has not been accompanied by its usual lustre as a social centre. For though to Puritanism and prosaic Radical- ism the Court in mourning has been agree- able, as showing the needlessness of any Court at all, the majority of the English people desire a splendid Court, and have felt aggrieved by its long eclipse. Also the leading political thinkers of England place & highcvzllue on the throne, espeZ-ially Since it has ceased to be a. political institution. â€" American Paper. The returns of the French Naval Adminis- tration as to the maritime ï¬sheries of France for the year 1885 have just been published. They show that the total quantity of cod (taken off Newfoundland and Iceland), her- rings, mnckerel and anchovies taken in 1885 was about 188,000 tons, as against 150,040 tons in 1884. The total take of cod off Newfoundland was over 9,000 tons. It is worthy of note also that, notwithstanding the constant complaints as to the disappear- ance of the sardine, the quantity taken in 1885 was greater by eighty'two millions than in the previous year. The chances that MeGnrigle will be ex- tradited are growing poorer every day. It is now asserted that no re presentations have been made to Washington asking that ex- tradition be applied for, and it is further afï¬rmed that there is no ground upon which extradition can be asked for except that of comity. That Canada. will hand over the accused as a. matter of courtesy is question- able. The United States never extends similar courtesy to other countries, and when American otl‘enders have been returned to it by countries with which it has no extradi- tion treaty the \Vashington authorities have ‘ been particular to announce that they would not reciprocate. s new asserted that no re presentations have seen made to Washington asking that ex- ;radition be applied for, and it is further iflirmed that there is no ground upon which extradition can be asked for exuept that of :omity.

McGarigic The Quanllty ofSpute Devoted to the Sub- ice! by the Engllsh Press. London. Sept. 5.â€"The editor of Vanity Fair briefly and sensibly sums up the Bul- garian situation, to which so many columns of English papers are at present devoted, in the following manner: “ The Bulgarian question is in that position in which any- thing or nothing of a critical character may occur. The future of the Balkan States does not, unfortunately. depend upon them. selves. They are simply peas in the great imperial game of thimblerig. Germany sup» ports, in their turn, Russia. in Bulgaria, Austria in Servia and. England in Egypt, and the chief preoccupation of Prince his- marck is. as it has been for along time, how to get England and France by the ears. The Turks and the small Balkan States are the ones to be victimized. That is about the actual situation. The yards of telegrams that till the papers every day as to the doings of Prince Ferdinand and the running about of this or that personage are nothing but dust. The most hopeful thing in the situation is the ï¬rmness displayed at Con- stantinople and the absence of disorder in Bulgaria. So long as the Turks reluse to THE (RISIS IN THE BALKANS. play: into Russia‘s hands and the Bulgarians are prudent, a way out of the present impasse may be found. If, however, there are traitors prepared to sell their country to Russia, then we are near the beginning of the end, and the extinction of Bulgarian independence as well as that of all the other Balkan States, and the partition of the rest of Turkey are only questions of time. The suggestion, or rather demand, made by Russia that Tur- key should join her in a joint occupation of Bulgaria. and Eastern Roumelia is of course an audacious attempt to make the Sultan a party to his own betrayal, and of that of the State of which he is Suzerain. He should be backed up in his resistance to the treacherous proposition. The strength of the position lies in the Danuhian States, including Hungary and the Balkan States standing together. If they are divided and isolated they must fall a prey on one si le to Austria. and on the other to Russia." W SBFIA, Sep .5.-I’riuce Ferdinand has re- ceived telegrams from both the Sultan and the Czar. The message of the Sultan is moderate in tone, but states that the Prince’s aa- aumption of the Bulgarian throne was an illegal act and constitutes a. breach of the Berlin treaty. The Czar‘s communication is decidedly imperative. It declares that Rusaia. disap- proves of Prince Ferdinand‘s action and deems it a. gross violation of the treaty. The Names of Women. Give your daughter but one name in bap- tism. She will be perfectly content with it. Her lover never requires, never uses but one of her names, it she has a dozen. When the girl marries let her always keep her surname. Then whenever we see a woman’s name, we shall know whether she is married or single ; and if she is married we shall know what her family name is. If she has earned a reputation as a. writer or a doctor or an LL.D. as Mary Brown she will carry that with her as Mary Brown John- son ; and in all cases there will be spared an inï¬nite amount of talk and iuouiry as to who she was before she was married. This sys- tem is essential to the “ cause †of woman. It may be said that it lacks perfection in two respects; we could not tell from the three names whether the bearer of them might not he a. Widow, and it makes no provision for a. second marriage. These are delicate questions. In regard to the ï¬rst it is nobody’s business to know whether the woman is or is not a. Widow, unless she hooses to make that fact prominent, and then she has ways enough to emphas’zs it. And in the second place, it does not at all matter what becomes of the name of the ï¬rst husband. It is the woman’s identity that is to be preserved and she cannot be required to set up milestones all along her life.
