CARDINAL OIBHOXa .TALKS.
lie ta Opposed te Prohibition and Favers
ItlaTh ""tnif
On Tuesday evening a Baltimore re
porter called en Cardinal Gibbens for a
statement of his views en nmhtiittinn
The eminent divine, who la and has been
ter years a total abstainer, was emphatic
fc hia Mtagentam te prohibition the
proponed remedy tter the evils of Intenv
peraace. Hiaa&t
"J am decidedly ippesed te prohibition
as means of preventing intemperance,
liecause It does net prohibit. Experience
has shown in these states where prohibi
tion has been tried that It Is net an effec
tive means of preventing the vice, of
drinking. There are many ways of evad
ing the laws, and often the law's officers
connive at the evasions. Prohibition 1s te
be discouraged also because it 'confounds
the drunkard with these who use liquor In
moderation, making out a sin where there
Is no sin. The only places where "prohibi
tion might be enforced are thickly settled
country districts.
"I am very strongly In favor of high
license as means of checking Intemper
ance. I regard high license, with moral
sanction, as the most efficient way of di
minishing the drinking vice. In order te
make high license effectual only a limited
number of licenses should be issued for
each ward and they should be given only
te persons of geed reputation, men who
swnu ueiere uie community moral and up
right, and owners of property.
"The licenses should be accompanied
with strict legislation and the violation of
laws respecting these licenses should be
severely punished. Among the punish
ments should be the withdrawal of license,
never te be restored te the one who violates
the law.
"I am In favor of a severe police Sun
day law. prohibiting the sale of Honors en
Sundays, and would have that law rigidly
enforced. The saloon-keepers in Balti
more si that that Uiey soil mero liquor
en Sun Uy than en any ethor day. This
is a crying shsme, and somebody is re
sponsible for this state of things. The
keeping of taverns and saloons open en
Suudays leads te many bad consequences.
The man who frequents the saloon Is net
likely te attend church, nor Is he in a con
dition te worship.
"Drunkenness, whlle always sinful, Is
an aggravated crime when committed en
Sunday. It.is scandalous, and leads te
the violation of ether laws. More orlme
can be traced te lutomperance than te any
ether source. It is useless te inake the
most stringent laws for the observance of
Sunday ami tho.irevcntion of the sale of
liquors en that day unless the police are
brought te enforce the laws. The indif
ference shown the Sunday laws and the
neglect te enforce them bring these laws
into contempt. Either enforce Sunday
laws or take the liquor llcenses away'

A SHARPER HKCOONl.KD.
The Mull who Fleeced Farmer Keller
Arrested Iu Ohie.
Daniel Keller, of Shainnkin. who was
fleeced out of his hard-earned geld, has
just returned from Washington Court
house, O., whither he weut iu response te
a telegram stating that one of the sharpers
who had fleeced him was held there en
another charge.
Uiien his arrival there he was shown a
photograph which he at once recognized us
that of one of the bunce men. He wus
taken te the jail, but the subject of the pho
tograph went through se many contortions
and twisted his face into se iiianv 'shapes
that he v as at first undecided whether It
was the man he was after or net.
Before leaving the jail, however, Keller
succeeded in identifying the prisoner us
the man who had proposed the game of
cards te him and made Information against
him. The sharper is held for playing a
like game en a man by the name of KuurT
mail, swindling him nut of 1,000. The
chief marshal informed Keller that Kuutf
man has disappeared and will net prose
cute the man who is iu jail, us he has re
turned the $d,000 te Kuutfinau and has
given him un additional !,0U0 net te appeu r
against him. The prisoner will be brought
te Pennsylvania after the August term te
answer the charges inaile by Keller.

Lightning Knocks Mr. Meyers Hviiseluss
Whtle He Is Preaching.
The Rev. J. C. Mevers, of State. V.iitb,
Iud., at the request, e.'ftre "Rev." "Mr. Steele,
or me ew .i.ieeny inrisuan cnurcn,r oun eun
taln county, Ind., filled the pulpit in that
church en Sunday. During the evening ser
vices a ruin cloud was noticed te overcast
the sky. IinmediatelvuftcrwHrd a blinding
belt of lightning descended, destroying
the chimney. Following along the stove
pipe, which ran around the room, it crushed
the two stoves Inte fragments and tore up
the fleer. After leaving the chimney the
belt separated, and a portion of it ran 'down
the chandelier ever the pulpit, striking Mr.
Meyers in the back of the head. He turned
a somersault, fell heavily te the fleer, and
was thought te be dead. He lay in an un
conscious condition for mero than a half
hour.
Several persons Iu the large congrega
tion were bhix'ked into Insensibility, but
seen recovered. On the luck of Mr.
Meyers' head where the lightning struck
him is a bruised place about the slze of a
sliver dollar. His face appears burnt, and
his sight Is nearly destroyed. He was
brought te Danville for treatment. An
eecullst who Is attending him fears that
the less of vision will be permanent.
Why He Cremated Ills Duugliter.
The body of Carrle A. Mahreuhelz,
daughter of the well known shoe manufac
turer, of New Yerk, was crema
ted ut Fresh Pend, L. I., en Tues
day. Funeral son ices were held at
the residence of Mr. Mahreuhelz, under
the auspices of the iasier e( the Dutch Re
formed church, after w hlch the funeral cor
tege wended Its w ay toward Leng Island.
The circumstances w hlch bieught about
the cremation t'f the young lady are par
ticularly Interesting and are likely te create
considerable comment in Catholic church
circles.
The young lady died last Sunday even
ing, aiid the father applied te ene of the
priests of St, Ann's church for a burial
permit that his daughter's lKsly might be
interred In Cavalry cemetery. This was
refused, for the reason that the young
woman was unattended by a priest, at the
time of her death. Mr. Mahreuhelz Is
greatly Incensed at the action of the church
people. He said te u reporter w 1th much
indignation I " I have owned a plot in
Calvary since lftK), and have eight mem
bers efmy family burled there. I Intend
te have all their bodies removed and have
them cremated."

THE PnOHIIUTION QUESTION.
Pennsylvania Will lle the Hevetith State
tu lteject the Amendment.
Prominent politicians and newspapers, In
every section of the state, have within the
past fortnight collected the sentiment of
veters en the prohibition question, and
agree that the amendment will be rejected
by an overwhelming majority.
The canvass in Philadelphia Just
completed shows a majority of up
wards of 00,000 against prohibition.
The feeling faverable te a retention
of the present high llcense laws Is also
growing iu the rural districts. The farmers,
us well as mechanics and tradesmen, are
beginning te realize the injury te business
which would fellow the adoption of prohi
bition. The granger learns that ever fl.OOO,
000 is annually paid him by brewers and
distillers for grain ; and he also receives
from the same seurce &SOu,000 for furnish
ing horse feed. Other products of the farm
are lu demand, for hotels, and altogether
several million dollars are iid for them.
The tax paid by the liquor Infrresls lu
1S88 was 10 per cent, of the entire revenue
of the state from taxation. Step ten per
cent, of the taxes new received from
licenses and the millions would have te be
made up by Increased luxatien. Who
wants an addition te his already high
tuxes? De net make your burden heavier.
The rejection of prohibition lust month
by the people of Massachusetts is the sixth
consecutive defeat which the prohibition
ists have sustained at the polls within the
ruiat vmar Vvnrtr ntutn wlilMi Imu rv-
pressed its verMicN. at, the ballet
het en prohibition during 18HS Unu
m has gene en record against it.
As a rule the majorities that hava been cast
against It have been heavy aud decisive.
If prohibition had never been tried in
Massachusetts, the result would net have
been se slgnlucaut as it Is. Hut the ver
dict there, like' the verdict lu New Hamp
shire after thirty Years of a prohibition
statute and like the rutctleu lu Khede Is
land, lathe testimony of people who have
had prohibition aud 'knew that It is net
simply as a theory but as a matter of every
day practice. Pennsylvania will net re
peat what these states have declared te he
unwise and Impracticable. "

FIRST VISIT OP THE TURKS.

Battlac the Pitcher Kvarrwher.
On Tuesday afternoon the Yerk ball club
made Its first appearance in Lancaster, and
In the presence of a couple bundred peo pee peo
ple administered a crushing defeat te the
home club. Early In the game the visitors
began hitting Carrell, and the way that the
ball was batted around In the field in the
second inning was astonishing. Carrell
was finally taken out of the bexj Itetng
replaced by May hew, a new pitcher Just
signed by the club, who comes from Cali
fornia, ' He la a young man of great apeed,
ami although lie was hit hard in the seventh
inning, It should "be remembered that he
was pitching te an entirely new catcher te
him, and he had no Idea of going into the
box yesterday. Stlvelts pitched a flne
game for Yerk, and his support was geed.
The umpiring of Heuser was very bad,
and Were the game was half ever both
clubs had mere than they wanted of him.
Bean, who had been umpiring the -games
for the Lancaster, sent word te the grounds
that he could net umpire the game, as he
lyaa working. Heuser Was then put ha and
later, after the game had proceeded for one
Inning, Dean made his appearance en the
ground. Manager Cennell asked the man
ager of the Yorks te change umpires but
he refused. Later he was sorry that he hed
net agrced,fer both clubs get It ollke en bad
decisions.
The conduct of the Yerk club was the
worst ever seen en the grounds. The men
acted like a mob of toughs, and behavior of
their kind outstde of a bull fence would
land thorn In jail In most any town. If
the players have any salaries left ut the
end of each month, ofter the new system
of umpiring gees Inte effect, they will sur

THE MARCH OF KMPIItK.
Agricultural Development and Changes
In Cultivated Area.
Frent Official Repert.
The breadth of cultivated area Increases
very largely each season; In the. newer
states and territories settlement Is rapid,
and each year new areas, almost equal te
msies in uieir aggregate, are given overle
the plow, while In the elder aelte.M4
rrvW6uTiJf liilherte undeveloped lauds.
The rapidity with which this extension has
gene en during recent years Is ir
haps scarcely realized. Iu 1M79 the four
principal arable crops, com, wheat, eats
ohm niimii, ms'iipifHi i ,oue,ooo acres ; in
1SNH this area had Inrronseil in IMiissiissi
L an enlargement In' nine years of 31.000.000
acres, nils luereasetl breadth in four
crops alene mero than equals the entire
area of the three Northern New Kngland
states, whlle the Increase in three of the
crops, corn, eats, and cotton, oxcesd the
total area of the great state or Ohie. If
the Inerease in all tilled and grass land
has been iu the same proportion as that in
these four crops, we have new a total area
of Impreved lands in farms of 33(1,000.000
acres, against 235,000,000 In 1870, or an In In In
crosse almost equal te the total surface
area of New England, New Yerk and New
Jersey, and equaling the entire area of im
proved land In 1880 lu the eleven entlnti
states, with the addition of Delaware and
Maryland.
With flie rapid Inerease of aggregate
area there is generally but lltlle change In
the cemnaratlve hmsdtli iHvnn tn n,.i r
the principal staple crop. In the miner
crops the fluctuations are greater, an ex
tended area ene year often resulting in low
prices or the product and a dluilnlshed
acrpuge the next. Again, high prlces from
an Increased demand will cause a rapid ex' ex'
imnslen, followed )s?rhaps later by an
equally marked contraction. These marked
lluctuatlens, however, are only In the
smaller crops, tne aggregate acreage of all
belng very small when cotupired with the
standard products.
Thaoffert te make tobacco u staple crop
In Flerida is being eentlmiwl en n larger
acreage and with uppuient success. LTso LTse LTso
whero the area of this crop has been verv
materially reduced, both lu the cigar anil
shinning districts. There Is general dls dls
satisfactien with the prevailing low prices,
and growers are generally discouraged.
In addition te this voluntary reduction,
ther Is u scarcity of plants, and damage
from Insects, In many sections, especially
In Kentucky, which will operuto for
the shortening of the acreage. This Is
the only prominent crop that apparently
shows un actual reduction In breadth.

aud contracted for his professional aervlesa
for his empleyes at a tixed sum vearlr. the
.doctor te serve en the presentation of Sulli
van's business card. Three days later a man
called and presented the card and drove
Crenln away witli him in a buggy with s
white herse. Next day a bloody trunk
was found near the city. The Cenklln
family, with whom he bearded, were
alarmed ut his failure te return, aud de
clared that he had been murdered by his
enemies In the Clan-na-Gucl. A week later
bogus interviews with the doctor were
sent te the Chlcuge papers from Terente,
Cunada, by Charles Leng, a reporter whoa
Informant was William Starkey, who is a
fugitive from Justice, and had been an
enemy of Crenln. A thief named Black)
alias Woodruff, told the pelice that en'
the night of the disappearance he had been,
hired te take the body of a woman out of
the city, and Crenin was present when h
took the body away. On the 22d, the de
ter's body was found In a sewer near who'
the tntnk had been discovered. Then
was learned that a cottage near IcejuanHnV,

walls or this cottage were bloody, and It
was learned that the bloody trunk, and the
furniture of the cottage had been bought in
February, by a man named Simmons, who
then lived oppeslto te Dr. Crenln's ofller.
Detective Ceughllu was ene of Crenln'.s
euemles In the tian-nu-Oael, aud It was
shown that he had hired u white herse
and a buggy en the night of the disappear

A private detoctlve of unsavory reputa

kill Crenln, and was paid a hundred cash.
He took the money but did nothing. The
story Is net Indie ved by the pelice. One of
the occupants of the bloody cettage was
