should be granted only te men of proved

rigid regulation of the hours for closing.
He also calls for divorce relerm. He would
conduct divorce proceedings In open court ,
weSld require a residence of two years in the
state; would prohibit the guilty party from
marrying again during the llletlme of the

desertion exist three years before begin nlng

of actual violence.

charges made In the newspapers were trim.
Ileoilled for the resignation of Superintend
ent Hlglfee, but hud net the power te dismiss

marked Imprevemeut. He asks the legisla
.ture te go through a thousand psges of tnstl tnstl
neny and take uctlen that will prevent such
shauietul abuses in tlie future.
A systematic revision of the laws govern
ing the tnaklug of llie geological survey of
the atate, and the publication el the reports
thereof Is again recommended. Thore has
Hlready lieen oxpended en this undertaking
ever a million dollars and there is no visible
limit te the cost that may yet be incurred.
He suggests a llxed time ter completing the
survey and a limit te expense. He recom
mends that the present laws relating te state
printing be repoaled and that the subject be
guard ed by enactments definitely llxlng the
-vO nmeunt te le expended for each department.
r The governor calls attention te the no ne no
glectod apiortlenment lawn and points out
the plain constitutional duty of the legisla
ture te ulteud te them. He glves a history of
the Houth 1'eim and iloech Creek railroad
casks, and us a result of the proceedings I'O
lloves that thoceuipeting Seuth Peun will be
llulshcd. Thn coiiiblnatten known as the
"Trunk Uue I'oel" and the " Ceal Teel" Is a
uanirest violation el law and It is te liavn

ernor says that the railroad corporations
hare never pretended te obey the constitu
tion, which la net te be wouderod at "when
we llud the legislatures of tbe past occupy eccupy occupy
ingalmeit the same attitude." Fer twolve
years the soveutoontli article of the consti

It will be remombered that when Jehn A.
Heebllng, the engineer el the llroeklyn
bridge, died Ireiu Injuries received In tbe
prewratery stages of the work, his son,
Washington A. Heebllng, succeeded him
and supervised the work most carefully. He
contracted a terrible dlvase from lwuslng se
much time in the compressed air of the
caissons. The course el his disease was ro re ro
iiiarkable. I'hysiclaus could uolther arrrut
nor guide it. At times he sullnieJ luteusely.
Then for awhile he would be able te go
nbeul. When he leek te his bed, as he had
often te de, his sensn of hearing seemed
lest, and vet the slightest sound disturbed
1 1 1 til. hen he arose he could walk about
unattended. His condition alternated for
years between extreme prostration and nn
opiarance ei lair neaiiu.
During all this time, remaining at Trenten,
he continued te direct the construction ofthe
bridge. He never sw ihe grand structure
that his skill was rearing, except as he
pictured it befere his tnliid. It was then and
aflerward that Ids wile asiumed her share of
his labors, acting as secretary and azent. He
hail le be removed from Trenten te New Yerk
by water, liy that tlme the brldire was fairly
advanced leiv.vrds completion. He could net
leave his house. I'artUI paralysis had teen
added te his ethor troubles. Tbe physicians
by this tlme were directing their ellerts
mainly te keeping him no werse oil'. They
had long sinee atsindnued hepe or his Im
provement while the bridge was ntillulshed.
It was Impossible le allay his mental excite
ment. In nnoef the rlter Irent roemsnf his
Columbia Heights' resldoncea powerful glass
was rigged. Kvery day when he could
be iuevd from his lcd room he nt by the
glas and watched the progress el the work
en the bridge. All the cable were thus
stretched across the river under Ids eyes
During all et this time also his wife's help
wasel Inestlmable tsinellt te hlin. Hlie had
become familiarized with the work and his
methods, and proved most etllcleut in nery
respect.
Hlnoe the completion of the bridge he has
been living quietly In Trey and lu the course
of the past year his Improvement has been
steady. His friends and tsmlly new consider
him well.

possible, and managing te escape with

Nineteen bodies have Ikieii taken from the

The night was c-ld slid he had dllllculty in

with a lantern. He bad only proceeded up

and with a ft jarful clash the engines came

Theetlect of the collision can be botter im
agined than described. The engines or the
two trains reared Inte the air like a pair or
enraged monsters nnd settled down upon the
track, driven Inte each ether until the cylin
ders touched. The lorce of the impact
Jammed the baggage and mall car Inte the
tender of the fast line, the express car Inte
the baggage ami thoameker Inte the express.
In less than II ve minutes from the mement
of the collision, and belore any organized of
fort at rescue could be made, the fire of over
turned stoves added the horror of lire te the
terrible scene. Many persons wero killed
outright, while ethers, wedged among the
debris et the wreck, were slowly burned te
death by the llaiucs. The screams of the
wounded and dying were heartrending, but
no assistance could tie given until some
farmers, awakened by the crash, came upon
the scene and worked iike heroes te rescue
the Injured passengers.
Ily tbe force of the collision tbe baggage
man of the express was thrown through the
reef of his car, escaping with a broken leg.
The express messenger, who was sitting by

Then fellows n short historical sketch of
the city, beginning with the visit el Hwlss
MennoulteH te William I'enn, in Kngland,
In the year 170) te make nn agroenient with
that honorable proprietor for lands In this
vicinity.
11 it is reasonably certain that n settlement
was begun by them, either In 1700 or 1710,
near whero Willow Streot new Is." They
selected 10,000 ceres of land en the north flde
of the Conestoga, nnd wero te pay ler It 600
te Great Dritatn and te William I'enn, his
heirs and assigns, the sum of Is. quit rent
yearly ferever for every 100 acres. Fer the
llrst two years there was te be no quit rent,
Other Hermans and French settled around
them, and tbe Indians were friendly. In
1720 they were recognized by charter as law
ful citizens or the province Lancaster was
begun in 1721 or '22, and was first known as
Hickory Town.
Acceruing te uorcien, Lancaster was laid
out In 1728 by James Hauillten, or Philadel
phla, at the request el the proprietors. Alter
liraudeck's defeat In 1755, prejaraUeus wero
made le build a block-house here, and tbe
surrounding country was lu a continual state
of alarm during the sprint, and summer of
1757.
The historian then alludes brietly te the
murder of the Conestoga Indians aud of the
march efa large body or men from Lancaster
te l'hlijtlelphla, with the avowed purpose of
kllllrciTie Moravian Indians sheltsred there.
M'lIlITED UKSOLUTIO.N.
The following spirited resolution was passed
by the Lancaster Association of Freemen in
1775 : "We de most solemnly ngree and as
sociate under the deepest sense of our duty
te Ged, our country, ourselves aud posterity,
te defend nnd protect the religious and civil
rights el this and our sister colonies with our
lives and fortunes, te tbe utmost or our abili
ties, against any power whatsoever that Bhall
attenijit te deprive us of thorn. And the
belter te enable us te de se we will use our
utmost diligence te acquaint ourselves with
military discipline and the art et war."
Tbe active part taken by Lancaster men In
the revolutionary struggle- is brlelly alluded
te and the founding of Franklin college, the
building of turnpikes, bridges, rends, slack
water navigation and finally railroads ceme
In for passing notice.
