The announcement of the early death of the Louisiana lottery la an other tribute to the good work of the Fifty-first Congresa Which gave the gambling octopus Its death blow by shutting its matter out of the malls. Judoe Gordon, of Philadelphia, In charging a jury In a case of alleged i-aIhb nrrpst nnd lmwlBonment, took occasion to remark: "The right to ar rest a citizen by any policeman with out a warrant is one which It is well to define both for the benefit of police officers and the Commonwealth. A policeman has the right to arrest for an offence committed In his presence without a warrant, but he haa no right to arrest any citizen without a warrant for finv offence which he did not see committed," During eleven months In 1800 we have imported $2,809,550 worth of cut lery; during the corresponding period in 1891 we imported only $918,707 worth. The difference measures the Increased opportunities for employ, ment to American cutlery makers. Perhaps It la true, as the English used to say, that "American cutlery won't cut." but It seems that the edges of American knives, under the McKln ley bill, have been keen enough to cut pretty deeply Into the profits of the Sheffield manufacturers. No wonder the "reformer" Is unhappy. ' ' r-ar The power of locomotives that are being constructed nowadays with pro portionate increase of speed Is certain ly wonderful and shows that the poa slblllties of Bteam like those of elec tricity aro but being developed. Ono of the new compound locomotives of the Baldwin Locomotive Works Sun day morning hauled the New York and Chicago Limited on Pennsyl vania Railroad up the west slope of the Allegheny mountain unassisted. No single engine has before been equal to the task. The engine gained 10 minutes In the run between Pittsburg and Altoona.

Aro the people of the State of Penn sylvania In earnest In supporting the great coal trust becatiBo they thinK that the people of New York will be the chief suderers? It is true that nearly all the people of New York will sutler from this con spiracy to raise the price of fuel. It is true that the beneficiary of the con spiracy will be the great Pennsylvania corporation that has monopolized the coal properties of the state. But It is nlfni trim that the coal consumers ot Pennsylvania will suflor from the tyranny of ihe trust. It la the Pennsylvania idea.however, that capitalists and corporations, especially of that state, are of the first Importance, and that consumers are persons who ought willingly and cheerfully to contribute to tho enrich ment of the special favorites of eleemosynary laws. From the most conspicuous to the humblest citizen a, creat malorlty of Pennsylvania assume this attitude. Butwhen they say that New York will sulfer and Pennsyl vania will prosper, they forget that New York In this instance stands for all consumers of coal wherever they I may dwell. There are some people In Pennsyl vania who have made manly and suc cessful fiehts against similar con spiracles. Fortunately one of these is Governor and another la Attorney' General of the State. Governor Patti son once took the Initiative for the people, and it is to be hoped that he will not falter now. The idea that the state cannot Interfere for the right lug of a private wrong doea not apply In this case. This combination ia an assault upon the people, and the duty of the Governor Is to protect both the neonlo of his own state and those of other states who are assailed by law less conspiracies existing In Pennsyl vania. As the York, Pa., Gazette sayB "There are some things about which a conscientious magistrate has uo per sonal choice." The enforcing of obedience to the Constitution of the state is one of them. JV.

IN NEW UNIFORMS Excursions to Mt. Oarmol and Shamokln School Board Mem bers PaBs tho Day With a Building Inspootor. The town was well filled with strangers yesterday who camo to spond Washing ton's Birthday with friends hero and wit- npss tho colouration of tho day by parade, otc. Tbo observance of tbo day was not as general as in" past years. Thtro was a lack of enthusiasm in manv resDocts. Tho parado was comparatively small, tho so- ciotics being limited and their ranks some what curtailed, yet tbo parado was- a credit able one. Tho day was a glorious ono, but the streets wore very muddy and tho pa triotio spirit in many breasts took flight at the thouKht of a tramp through tho slush Many of those in lino woro low rubber over shoes and along tho whole routo of tho parado rubbors wero left in tho mud. Small boys who delight to figure among those in line behind a brass band kept track of tho rubbers and picked them up as thoy went along, returning them to the ownora. For this service tbey considered permission to march near the line'of procession sufficient reward. There was considerable dolay in getting the line moving. Tbo time announced for tho start was 9:30, but it was near 11 o'clock before tho marching order was given The lino moved up Main street from Cherry, and turned east into Oak street in tho following order: Henry Bicklemnn, B.

Tho organizations in line prosenlod a flno appearance. This was especially true with respect to tne Jr. O. U. A. M.

The uniform consists of licht bluo troimnpa dark bluo coat and vests, with regulation military trimmings, dark blue peakodcaps. trimmed with red, white and bluo braid and brass buttons and shield. It Is very attractive. After the parado overything seemed to settle down and the town had a very quiet aspect for tbo balanco of thn rinr The number of peoplo who went cut of town more than counterbalanced thoso who visited it. Nearly a hundred wont to Shamokin to attend llm mnsll tlon at tho eisteddfod, and in the afternoon the Jr. O. U. A. M.

It is now determined that tho "Whlto stroot school building will not bo occupied again for some time, probably not until the opening of the 1892-03 school term, and Superintendent Frooman has appealed to tbo directors for permission to rent quarters for the accommodation of tho pupils who aro crowded out by the vacancy of the building. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Howard Murphy, of Philadelphia, a momber ol tho State Board of Health, and who is an expert civil engineer, arrived in town in response to an invitation from tho School Board. Arrangements were at once made by which Mr. Murphy was engaged to make a thorough inspection of tho Whito street school building, ascertain tho cause of its present condition, state what is noceseary to be dono to put it in good condition, and stalo if it would be safe to continue; occupancy of tho building for school purposos. In company with members of tho board and several cit!zons Mr. Murphy visited tho building and spent about two hours in oxamining it insido .and out. Uo declined to givo any definite, or.flnal, opinion until ho is furnished., with the measurements ot the walls and other parts of tbo building, so that ho may ascertain tho weight of tho Btructuro and compare ft with the support, Uo said, however, that the foundation and cellar walls of tho building wero not constructed proporly and that thoy woro evidently the causo of trouble. Ue also said that it may be necessary to remove tho top story of tho building, but this and other matters will depend upon the moas urements, which aro to bo made by Surveyor S. A. Beddall, and which will be sent to Mr. Murphy. Tbo latter returned to Philadelphia yesterday aftornoon. Superintendent Freeman asked Mr, Murphy if he considered it safe to allow children to attend school in the building, Mr. Murphy answerod: "I believe this building may stand for a year and I would ba willing to forfeit (50 for every month it will not stand during that period; but would not allow my children to go in the building for $6,000. Brick buildings are not like frame- structures. They collapso suddonly In a heap, without warning, When thoy once givo signs of going it is impossible to say how long they will stand, or how soon they will drop." It is now generally conceded that tho condition of the buili'ing is not duo to mlno workings. Tho P. & R O. & I. officials say tho workings aro not under tho build in r, but south of It; and Mr. S. A. Beddall says he is confident that oven if the work ings are under the building the inter mediate stratum is thick enough to protect the building, Mr. Murphy asked Mr. Beddall what ho supposod tho thickness of tho stratum was and that gentleman ro pliod, "About 230 or 800 foet," upon which Mr. Murphy said "that Is thick enough, I should think." Mr. Murphy will return horo inEabout a week and it is oxpected ho will be prepared to givo a definite opinion of the "building by that time. A Loader.

SubjGot of tho Discourse by Rov Urban, of Germantown, in tho Methodist Episcopal Church. Rov. A. L. Urban, pastor of St. Stephens church, Germantown, preached a sermon of great beauty and power in the Motbo dlst Episcopal church on Sunday morning. His theme was the relation of the personal soul to its porsonal God: Ps. 03-1: "O God thou art my God." After calling at tention to tho circumstances under which tho text was written ho spoke of the uni versal oxistonco of tho God idea. Voltaire might reject tho Jehovah of tho bible, but ho must havo a God so ho worshipped truth. Franco might dothrono God, but. Reason must bo enthroned in His place. However men may try to oscapo from it and howover far they may wander from tho right, like tho shell which Is poetically said to murmur tho sounds of its watery homo, when your get' right close to their heart and listen to their secret aspirations they speak of God. Henco religion is not something which is imposed upon us from without but which 'grows upon us from Within. It is natural. It belongs hero like tho stars which shino above us and tho flowers which bloom at our feet. Men recognize this fact and act accordingly. It is this that gives sanction to law and yields tho foundation of duty. No man any where claims that it is right to do wrong, Men may differ concerning just what may bo right or wrong. But all men agree that whenever right has been ascertained it is tho duty of all men to do it. And simply because of the personal eloments that enter into our relation to it. The cry of the soul in its hour of sorest need Is for a personal God not theologicals' definitions ot God nor philosophical substitutes for God it is pot satisfied until it is assured that infinite wisdom and omnipotent lovo becomo our wise and loving father. Nothing less than this can givo the rest of soul for which wo cry. However much inspiration thero may bo in U10 thought ot my lathers Uod my mother's God David's God, tho soul yearns for its own God ily God. There is comfort in David's experience for us. It illustrates tho possibilities of all human experience. David's God may be our God, and his loving kindness may ba to us, m it was to him in the wilderness, better than life. Wo may rost assured that if W3 aro on God's side He is on our sido. But, as tho latter part of the Psalm shows, if we aro againBt God, God is against us. Tho stars in their courses fight against the man that lights against God. Here is tho ground of tho christian's hopo as ho encounters tho conflicts of lifo and encounter them ho must but if God bo for us who can be against us ? "Who shall separate us from tbo lovo of Christ? Shall life, or death, Invisible foes or natural forces? Our God holds them In tho hollow of Uls hand. Shall things present or things to como? Our God is the God of eternity. The God that rules on high That nil the earth surveys That rides upon tho stormy deep And Wilms the roaring sea. This awful God is ours, Our Father aud our Uod, He will bend down Ills heavenly powers To carry us aliove.
