with palms and potted plants. Spanning
the steps leading to the altar a floral arch
was erectml. Every one of "the pillars in
the body of the church was entwined with
flowers, and the choir loit was so decorat-
cd as to give the color client of white and i

DISASTROUS FIRE.
Nearly 39,000,000 Worth of Property De-
stroyed and lever-l People Injured.
NW YORK, Nov. fl.——An explosion. the
cause of which is not known. occurred at
8:40 last evening in White's express office.
on the southwest corner of Crosby and
Bleacher streets. and almost immediately
followed a conilagration that not only
|proved disastrous, but almost get beyond
control. .
The only theory of the explosion that
could be formed last night was that some
package in the express ofl‘icc contained ex-
plosives and was ignited either spontane-
ously or by the heat of the room.
In a few moments the flames had spread
from the building in which they started
to a shoe store next door. and from there
to the roar of the Empire State bank build-
ing, at tilt) Broadway. An alarm was sent
out promptly and was followed in quick
order by four others. It was responded to
by 18 engines, 6 book and ladder compa-
nies. 8 fire patrol companies and >3 water
towers. Even this unusual force found
difficulty in coping with the coniiagration.
which spread with alarming rapidity.
Over the floor occupied by the bank
were five stories occupied by dealers in
fancy goods. millinory, feathers and the
like, and because of the inflammable us.
turn of the goods there was bred such in-
tense hcat that within half an hour the
flames crossed Bleeckcr street. and the
Manhattan hank building, a modern. sup~
posedly fireproof structure. was blazing.
This building is eight stories in height,
with the seven upper stories also princi-
pally occupied by dealers in fancy goods.
Against a fire of this description the fire-
men were not only trouble for a time to
make any headway, but they steadily lost
ground.
The old illecckor Street bank building
caught fire. but. being a substantial old
stone building. was not very suriously
damaged. No. 038 Broadway suiiorcd from

Willi“! Memoir-g. Helm
hlshsuuislltsgwhesehistcdy
iagexporure of the
amount of money lost . through dishon-
est bank oilicislssnd employees in the
United States is made in The Arena.
The author of the paper does not sign
his name for manifest reasons, but The
Arena mentions that he is “an ex-exsmiv
nor of failed United States hanks. "
The tax-examiner tells us that for the
past ten years an average of over .10.—
000,000 a year has been lost to the peo-
ple of this country through bunk swin-
dles, embezzlemeuts and defalcaticns.
Worst of all. the amount seems to in-
crease year by year. In 1892 09,000,000
was discovered to have been stolen
through these bank robberies. as the ex-
aminer does’uot hesitate to call them.
In 1804 the amount was $25,000,000.
The writer justifies his use of the
Word “robbery” by saying. ”Whatever
may be the eccial position of a'man,
when he makes illegal use of the funds
of a public oflice or of a financial insti-
tution intrustcd to his care, or conuives
with others in so doing, he becomes a
thief. "
Both the bunk officer and the bank
employee rob because they wont to get
rich quick. The bank officer often wants
to go in for politics. or be has some pri-
vate speculation thathe takes funds not
his own to forward. The tunployee usu-
ally begins to rob because he has got
into bad company and wants money to
indulge more deeply in dissipation.
Both alike, however, invariably intend
to pay back the funds they have. stolen.
,Oh. yes. they always intend to pay it
back. but thcy never do. The cx—exami-
ner thinks the. closest scrutiny ought to
ho runintnincd over the. lives of bank em-
ployees and officers. Those who bet on
horse races, drink, indulge in any form
of gambling or dissipation. are not safe
persons to handle other people‘s money.
Household Training Schools.
Handsome young women eiocuiion-
lsts. newspaper-writers. teachers of phys-
ical culture. and heavcn knows what
all, are daily knocking at the world's
dtmrs for a place. to earn money their
way. They cannot get it because these
pluccsum already all fall. But if one of
those capable young ladies should open
a school for teaching artistic housckccp~
lug in all its branches, she could doubt-
less lay up numcy.
This autumn the avail again goes
abroad in the loud couccrniug thodo—
prnvity of domestic “servants." It
seems as if Amcricnn women are fond
of rolling that wort “servant" as a
swcct morscl under their tongue. Just
so long as this is the case. just so long
will they have tho souls vexed out of
thcm by incompetent household help.
This is n free country.
