Washington, April S. Several bill, which have been Introduced in con gress have been referred to Commis sioner Iletman, of the general land olllce for his judgment as to their merits. One of these provides that ex clusive leases for inlnlncr pm poses may be gi anted to lands within the tenl toiy of the United States which li rolow high water matk. It N im posed to grant exclusive leases upon condition that a bond of five thousand dollars be ,ien to insuie pioper tI flllnient of the ngrpement. Commis sioner Hermans lepjrts adverse!.' upon this bill for the reason that while Capo Nome Is not specifically men tioned In it the evident intent is to make it apply to it. It Is held to be cnntraiy to the policy of the United States government to grant exclusive leoses of this character to gold Holds and the piovlso in leg.ud to a IHe thousand dollar bond would operate to exclude poor Illinois fiom scouting giants. Another bill upon which ad verse report is made, provides for leasing public lands in the at Id leg Ions for grazing putpoes. Advoise repoit also has been made upon a somewhat similar bill of a mote gen eral nnd far teaching nature, which Iiovldes for leasing any available public lands for glazing. The commis sioner says that the courts have held such action to be contiaty to the rph. torn of a hundred years which per mlts the free use of such lands by any one and says that In hi Judgment the tlmo has not come to oertuin tills policy. BIG FIRE IN PITTSBURG. A Building Valued at $750,000 Totally Destroyed. Pittsburg, April 8. The extensive dry goods stoie of Joseph Home & Co., at the cot net of Fifth stteet and Penn avenue, was destioyed by lire eatly this morning. Shortly after midnight flames were dlscoveied Issuing fiom tile windows of the eighth floor, and inside of an hour the big eisht-story structure was completely gutted, en tailing a loss of over a million dollars. If the building, which was supposed to be flieproof, ptoves to be so badly warned as to necessitate a. new stiuc ture, the loss will be nearly $2,000,000. A member of the (Inn says the bulld ingwas valued at $750,000, and was in stiled for $420,000. The stock was valued at $1,000,000, with insurance in the neighborhood of $800,000. A general alarm brought all the engines of the lower town district to the scene, but the flames ato their way bo rapidly from one floor down to another that the efforts ot the firemen wet a almost futile. The building was bupposed to be flieproof, but not until the fire reached the first floor was there any possibility of getting It under control. Probably every article in the store was either burned or tulned by -water. Smoke The Popular Tunch Cigar, 10c. Woman Burned to Death. HariUbiirg, April 8.

Spoke Last Night in the Fenn Ave nue Baptist Church nnd Uiged Upon His Henrcis the Necessity of Contributing Towards These Two Things Told of the Former System In Vogue in the Philip pines Wheieby No Funerals Weio Free Soldiers' Home Project. Captain Chatles C. Pierce, U. S. A., chaplain under General McArthur, and who camo to tills country from the Philippines with General I.awton's body, and who Is soon to return to those far-off Pacific Isles, spolte !ist evening in the Penn Avenue BaptUt church, of which his btother, Uov. Kobett 1-'. V. Pleice, D. 1)., Is the pastor. After pleaching a tiuly eloquent sermon on the practical evidences ot Christ's beautiful life and influence, Itev. Mr. Pleice made an appeal to the congregation in behalf of two woiks In which he is. especially inter ested, namely, 'the maintenance of a free cemetery which has been already established In Manilu, and the prospec tive establishment ol a.Holdlers' Home In that clt, modelled after the lines ol the Y. M. C. A. buildings In this country. Among other things ho said; "t should like to give ou a few Incidents tlmt came undtr my personal obsetvatlon an 1 which I am le.tdv to stand by, showing the nocsolty of this free cemetery in Manila. I was approached one daj, away back In October, IMS, by a ;oung native whose old ftther had died and who wlshPd me to conduct the 'benediction.' as they teun the sen ices, over the gtave. I asked him why he had not gone to his own padte, he being a Catholic. He informed me tli.it lie had, but that the latter demanded .", which the young in. in raid wa tli" reg ular fixed chat go demanded by the cl"is, and as lie had only $1 he could not obtain the padtu's sei vices. I might mention Hint this Miung man rained usl $13 a month and was the sole suppoit of his family. CONDUCTED Tim frrjitvici:. "ltcalihiK the condition of afi'alts I agreed to conduct the sei vices, but when we urrlved at the cemeteiy we found the gates locked. The sexton, who was wot king Inside, infoimed me thnt the padre had the key and that If vi wanted to get In wc would have to tlnd him. I tent the sexton after him, but the man came back shottly without the key and said that the p.idte had told him that no free bur ials co tld be made In that cemetery. Well, I had been standing In a tem perature of about 120 degiees and I was pretty hot, but this made me vcrv much hottei. "I asked the man to take me to the padie and I'd explain things, lie took me down the stteet a shott distance and theie I met the padie, and a fat, sleok man he wa. He explained thai the law was that all burials, except those of the pool, weie to be charged for at $3 apiece, I explained thai these people weie poor, but he leplied that the body was in a box. If theie was no box, and the body was Just thrown into the eaith, the family weie con sidered poor, but If theie was a box they weie accounted able to pay the fee. "I must sav that his last i email, made me hottei yet, and I stialghtened up with something of the spirit of Paul of old In me, and told him t'-tit I was an Ameilcan and that in my country the rich and poor were bulled alike, and that I wanted that key, though thete was to be no funeial fee. I got the key, and the funeral was held. "On another occasion thlssame padie refused to open the cemetery gates for a poor little child who had starved to death and whose funeral services I was to conduct. But I seemed the ser vices of a warm and open-heaited Ameilcan officer of the old school this time, and the key was forthcoming very lapldly. This time theie was no box, and the excuse the leverend gentleman had made was that no paid record of the death had been made on the books of the church. THING OF THE PAST. "This condition of aftalis, hoveer, is now a thing of the past, and we have seemed a cemetery of our own, and, in this, Roman Catholics, Metho dists. Baptlxft'or men of any other de nomination are burled, and the builal is fiee. What we need now Is an en dowment foi this cemeteiy, so that it can be maintained." The speaker then told of the plans In view for the establishment of the Hol dleis" home, how it was to be a place to which the soldier boys might go to while away their lelsuie moments, away fiom the other Influences which aie always on hand todiag them down. "Such a building Is necessaiy," said he, "if we want these joung men to come back to their homes asjinsullled and as God-feaiing as they left them " He spoke of the eni-ouiagpment ho was meeting with In his appeal, and hoped that theie was some gentleman In Scianton who was willing to' give $1,000 towaid the work. At the conclusion of his remaiks a special collection was taken up for the two objects spoken upon, 'and pledges for large amounts weie received fiom several. Rev.

Charged with tho Killing of Pollco Ofilcer Tatiick Rafferty at Old Forge Sunday, Dec. 17, 1890 Most Sensational Shooting Affair That Ever Occuned in the County. Lexow Victims Scheduled to Bo Tried Five Cases of Libel Against Little and O'Toole. Thice murder cases ate set down for trial at the two weeks' session of crimi nal court, which opens this morning. All are ready for ttial and will, It Is expected, be disposed of. The flist case on the list is that ugainst Thomas latddon, cliatged with the killing of Police Officer Patrick ttaffeity, at Old Forge, Sunday, De cember 17, IS'J'J. The affair grew out ot the strike at Jemiyn & Co.'s mines. Luddon acted as a deputy, and, when the strike tetminated, was appointed a watchman at one of the company's bteakers. The piecedlng Satuiday was pa day, and Luddon started drinking. The fact that he had been a deputy made him unpopular and wherever he went he was subjected to Insult. Sun day evening he became embroiled in several quntrels and along towards nightfall had a light with John Lynch, one of a party who refused to drink with him at Fallon's hotel. He backed away fiom Lynch, covering his retreat with a drawn tcvoHer.and when Lynch pei slsted In following hlrn, he set upon hint, gave him a drubbing and then started for the bleaker. Tho intervening incidents aie what will determine tho degree of Luddon's guilt, and as no two stones are exactly alike, It would be unfair at this time, with the prospective Juiy free to read the papcis, to anticipate the witnesses. At all events, Luddon went to the engine house, placed thiee of the em ployes under an est, and sounded the bleaker whistle. A crowd had followed him to the bleaker, and when the gong was blown fully SOO lesldents of the neighborhood Hocked to the scene. HOW SHOOTING OCCURRED. Among them w etc Police Officers Pat rick Raffeity and Thomas McKenna. The lamp had been overturned and the engine room set allre, but Luddon had extinguished the blaze and left the place in total darknesss. The two police officers entered and weiv only well inside the door when a pistol shot was heatel and Rafferty fell mortally wounded. McKenna grappled with Luddon and while they wcie snuggling, two of the men who had been held pilsoneis, Enlgneer Matt Continued on Pjge C What Better Evidence Could one wish than the following testimonial ns to tho great power, Endurance and Melody of the pfAfyos Prof. John R.
