A SEA OF FIRE. A Eiver of Oil Fired by an Engine Drawing a Passenger Train. The Oars Ignited Three Women Burned to Death, and About Thirty Badly Injured. Bradford IP.) Dispatch..' One of ilioso disasters peculiar :o tho oil country shocked tho people of Bradford today. An entire passenger train ou the Bradford, Uorwell and Kinzua Narrow-Oaugo railroad was destroyed by flro. Tho train ran through a river of oil which had oscaped from a burst tank on the steep hill and coursed down over tho snow and into the bed of the track, down u-hvlt it ran for fully half a mile. Tho grade at that point, which was very strep, allcvccd this great leeway. Tho train consisted of an express ear and passenger touch, both well filled with pusscniiCrs. The engineer was not awaro of the dangerous ground his train was traversing. The moment the oil came in contact with tho furnaco of the engine It ignited and at once enve'oped the entire train In a mass of flame. Tho engnccr, Patrick Sexton, applied the Hlr-braho and reversed the ongluc. The halt was very brief. The track for over 800 fret ahead was a rouing sea of flame. Great clouds of denfo black smoke ascended heavenward. The engiucer opened wido tho throttle, and away thundered tho train through a sea of smoke, liamc, nnd oil. The s)xed attained was terrible, and acted as a huge fan to the conllagrat on. Tho engineer saw a sharp curve ahead, and, quickly reversing bis engine, with his fireman, Mike Walsh, jumped into the snowbank which lined both sides of tho road. l!oth wero terribly burned. The entire traiu was derailed and thi-own down an embankment. In tbo urc-houuned roach the scene beggared description. Locked in and helpless in a furnaco 01 lire, traveling at tho rate of fifteen miles au hour, their anguish know no bounds. Men of nervo lost their heads, women foil to tho Poor in a swoon, and the cries and lamentations of liltlo children wero heartrending. There was a dash through doors and windows and through the swooping tlanios, which cooked the i'esh and singed the hair on tho faces and heads of tho imprisoned passengers. In the dash for liberty it was everybody for themselves, and men in Ihoir desperation jumped from the speeding traiu and fell prostrate to the ground, burned and mausrlcd. 80 intenso was tho heat that ono minute arier tho train entered tho fee of Are every window was cracked. Two-tiirdsof the passeu.ers lumped through tho narrow windows, tho majority escaping with scvero burns, whilo tho luoky few escaped without a scratch. Three persons, all of thorn women, wore found burned to death, and about thirty more or less foriously injured. Borne of tho injured will in all probability- die. Several of the persons extricated from tho wreck; have their limbs charred to badly that they will have to bo amputated.

GEN. SHERMAN.

Is He a Presidential Candidate? (Washington Special to Chicago Tribune.) There is considerable excitement among politicians hero consequent upon a credited rumor that Senator John Sborman and oxSpeaker Keifer had concluded an alliance to press Gen. William Tecumseb Sherman for the Kepublican Presdcntial nomination. Gen. Sherman is on the sround.and although never allied with Kepublican politics, has been taken down badly with the Presidential disease, in spite of previous protestations that under no circumstances would he become a candidate. Humor has it that overtures have already been made to ex-Senator Conkling to favor Gen. Sherman's nomination, and that Congressman Bellord was the embassador, but the latter statement ia discredited. Congressman Belford did have certain conferences with ox-Senator Conkling, the supposed object of which was to effect a reconciliation between Conkling and President Arthur, in which mission ho has not so far succeeded. FINANCIAL LEGISLATION. John Sherman's Currency Bill. At tbe meeting of tho Senate Finance Committee, says a Washington dispatch, Mr. Sherman proposed an important amendment to his own bill, designed to meet tho objection that the measure would base the amount of circulation upon a fluctuating standard. Ho proposed to authorize the secretary to Issue national bank notes up to 00 per cent, of tho face value of 8 per cent, bonds deposited as security for circulation. Where higher-rate bonds were deposited he proposed tocouiputo tho interest above 3 per cent, and allow a circulation to tho amount of 90 per cent- of tho aggregate interest ovor S per cent, for the whole time such bonds have to run. Thus, 4 per cent, bonds, having twenty-three years to run, on being deposited as security for circulation, would entitlo the bank depositing them to receive currency at tho rate of 110.70 for each 100 bond deposited, that being 90 nor cent, of the face value and 90 per cent- additional for all excess of interest over 3 per ocnt.

THE LIMITED VETO.

Seutlment Against Investing the President with Increased Power. (Washington Telegram.' Kcpresentatlve Maybury, member of tbe Committee on tho Judiciary, is of the opinion that the bill to extend the powers of the President by allowmv Mm to veto portions of an appropriation bill will not bo favorably reported.

A Bill for Its Forfeiture to Be Beported. A Washington special says: Tho House Publio Lands Committee has made good Ha promise to report an early forfeiture of the Texas Pacific and othor land-grants. To-day the commit! 00 considered tbe arguments which have boon made and i n inimously voted to forfeit the grant of tho Texas PaeiHc Tho bill will be prepared at once. The determination of the Public Lands Committee to proceed with these land-grant roads as rapidly as possible was illustrated by the fact tbat it has been dcoidod in all the important hearings hereafter to give to each caa but ono hour on each 8ldo to the lawyei s for argument. This will be considered a gieat bardsh p. Tbe railroar. men say tbat it Is In fact an announcement that tho committee is organized to convict.

Plcuro-Piteumonla. Washington Telegram.) Tbo live-stock dealers, through Representative Hatch, have submitted to tho House a petition asking legislation to protect their interests. The memorialists ask Congress to provide means for the extinct on of the disease of plcuro-i neuiiK nia. This, thoy say, can only bo dono by tho slaughter 0 all Infected cattle. The estimated expenss of such a mi a-turo is $1,500,000. ot more than $r-00,-000 nood bo immediately available. 'Die memorial further recommends the removing of the prejudice of foreign customers by a rigid system of inspection for all moat products for export, tbe ox ponse of such inspect on to bo borne by tl.e exporter-.

They state that the bill sets asido tbo judgment of the h ghost military tribunal ovor organ! od in tb.s country, thereby conlllctlug with lire very spirit of tho Constitution. It would have tbe offect of saying that the judgment of tho court was either corrupt or founded on mistaken evidence, tboujih thatevidonco was taken whon the events were fresh in tho minds of the witnesses.

Eli Perkins is a Hoyal Areh Mason, and at a Masonio celebration in Washngton he undertook to answer the question why women cannot be Free Masons. Women sometimes complain that th.y yjro not permitted to enter th lo.lge ( and work with tho craft in their labors, aud learn alt there is to bo learned in j this institution. I will explu n tho ,

reason. I learn that tioioro tho Almighty had finished His work Uo was in doubt about creating Eve. The creation of tho living and ereepmg thin ,8 had been accomplished, and tho Almighty hod made Adam, who was Mie first Mason, and created for hi:n Tie finest lodge in the world, nnd called t Paradise No. 1. lie thjn called t'te leasts of the liold and fow Is of the nir y pass btfo e Adam, for him to name them, which was a pieco of work ho Vad to do alone, that no eoufusion might thereafter arise from Eve, who He knew would make trouble if she were allowed to participate in it, if He created her beforehand. Adam being fatigued with his first task fell asleep, and when he awoke found Eve in the lodge with him. Adam, being senior warden, placed Eve as the pillar of beauty in the south, and they received their instructions from the Grand Master iu the east, and, when finished, she immediately called the craft from iabor to refreshment. Instead of attending to tho duties of her oiriee as ijhe ough she left her station, violated her obligation, and let in an expelled Mason, who had no business there, and rent around with him, leaving Adim to look after the jewels. This fellow hod been exjielled from the Grand Lodge, nth several others, some time before. Yuiding that Eve was no longer trustworthy, and that she had caused Adam 10 neglect Ins duty, aud had let one in hom He had expelled, the Grand ilaster closed the lodge and turned iheni out, setting a faithful tyler to guard the door with a flaming sword. Adam repented of his folly and went to work like a man and a good Mason, in order to got reinstated again. Not so with Eve! She got angry about it, and commenced rai ing Cain, and did it again when she got Abel. Adam, on account of Iuh reformation, was permitted to establish lodges and work in the degrees, aud while Eve was allowod to joiu him in his work of charity on the outside, she was never again permitted to assist in the regular work of the craft. Heuce the reason why a woman cannot become au inside Mason.

'Pretty Anns." A girl of seventeen, who signs herself with the heading to this paragraph, writes an appealing little letter asking for advice, and reciting reasons. why she should wear short sleeves or sleeveless evening dresses, the principal one of which in fact, the only one is that she has pretty arms and wauts to show them. Oh! "Pretty Arms!" do you not know that lovely white arms are much more longed for when thoy are suggested, not seen? Aro pretty arms your only beauty? Is there anyreas-.in why you should expose them to the garish light, to the rude gaze of the vulgar, and not other pretty parts of your body? Do you not know that it .ts not the man who truly loves you or ho would be likely to truly love you vlio would see with pleasure this display of "velvet softness," this exposure to the eyes and touch of uninterested and scoffing spectators ? A man who is capable of true love has an inst nctivo reverence for its object. To him she is ashrino not to be approached indifferently not to bo thought of or spoken ot unworthily. It is in the power of young women to always preserve this reverence in tho minds of men, and it is infinitely better to do this than excite impure thouchts or pander to di-gradinsj passions. Dear "Pretty Arms," I know you have no evil in your thoughts. 1 know how blissful 'it is to be young, to love lil'e and gayety, to 1 vve pretty arms and b-.i capable of giving pleasure; but do not be in haste; eult'.vuto your resources; do not distribute tho u or lavish them on the indifferent and unworthy. By and by you will wish yon had more, and ten times more, to bestow n mjiup 0110 person, and if he is such as he aught to lie, he is cultivating himself at this moment for you growing in splendid stature, to manhood, in honor, in strength, in loal devotion to his most cherished ideals; and would it not be ft pity if you missed him on ft v count of your bared arms those pretty arms that you think aro capable of so much execution ? For tlie high -r and truer your knight the more sacred will be the ideal lady of his love, and ho will never look at one who wears her arms outside hor sleeves for popinjays to peck at. I wish it were possible to make "Pretty Arms" and all young women see how unutterably debasing it is to set fashion and prettiucss above all other considerations health, and even morality. Think, for a moment, of some of the fashions of to-d iy the gjiivefltting bodice, tho panniers (which emphasize tho hipsl, the revived criuoictte, and the puffery at the top of tho sk'rt- the suggestivencss of tho whole eiwemhle, which seems ma te todecentunte the difference in sex, nnd which wo should consider too indecent for wear without a cloak to cover it-- if we wi iv. not accustomed to fo lowing any lead--and believing that whatever is, in fashion, at any rate, is right. Think of this subservience i t wotli eniiig tho iufluenco of women with good men! It is the right, the place, the saored dutv of women to supply men with ideals and aspiration: to supply

thoir manhood with something nobler than the ambitions, tho strivings, tho selfishness that enter into their daily lives; but what inspiration can they find in a woman who yields herself unreservedly to every caprice of French mil liners, barbers and courtesans, surrounds herself with their influence as with on atmosphere, and does not dream of asserting an individuality of her own, even though her own womanhood and the welfare of future generations depend upon it. Jtemember, my "Pretty Arms," it is this qne.ition of "dress and exposure of the charms of per.--ou that lies at the root of everything that is dishonorable, weak and hurtful to women, and also of whatever is noble, strengthening and elevating. No woman ciin possibly luive made any gre.it advance in the line of -elf-help and tu-hievem nt who has not more or less emancipated herself from the bondage of her c'othes who does not value the siered rights nnd dignity ol her womanhood more than tho vulgar admiration extorted by striking dress and liberal display of personal aitractions. Jennie June. O t'fm ii popular P.iruses, In Fij.. The word fine, rtJ.i'h is now fiiund only in this construction, f-eems, lit first glance, to be Latin, and ought, if so, to be pronounced as a dissyllabic, after the analogy of in pace, in uuce, hi.ie die, and other I.atiu expressions which have been borrowed mto our langu ige. Tho word is, however, really English, and, therefore, m- nosvllablo. Fine is not the ablative

of tho Iiatin word fin'.s, but is that word anglicized, and spelled, after the uniform English orthography, with 1. final o silent, as in the words line, pine, which are also of Latin derivation, but not of Latin inflection. The word was once used in other constructions than the one given above. For example, Benedick sjys : Because i will rot do them Ithe ladies! the wrong tc m trns aav, 1 n-11 1 tnvsir.ne rlirbt to Ira t noif: Aietih ! (in-! is. I iv-,11 live a ba b-.lor. .Jt:r'i A't'ti .!m .Xf'tiit!. 1.. 1. Both Slukspeare and Milton use tho word lineloss, where we would now say endless: l o r nnd content Is rich, and rich cn-Mish; But r.eh , lineles, is as poor as winter To him t-i.u ever f cars h? sbaU beuoor. Il.riel 'i, H'.. :l. "The Harp of JKolus." .ttolus, the an.'ient god of tho winds, was fabled to have his habitation on the Lipari islands, between Italy and Sicily. From him is named the harp whose sounds are called forth by the applause of the air 0:1 strings. It is possible that n: instrument of this kind was known iu ancient times, for tho Talmudis's say that the ki .nor or harp of David mounded of itself when the north wind fell upon it. But the merit of tho invent 01, in tho form it now takes, is due altogether to modern times. The .iotr.id i' peculiar; the wild and we rdlike melody, tbo gradual advance? and retiring of the aerial tones, can b fitly described only by the instrument itself. Whon the breeze which vibratos the strings of the harp freshens, '.ho sounds swell on the ear until they almost scream through the house; then, as the breeze lulls, the notes reooJe in the distaneo, becoming more and more delicate and tender till thev can be only faintly distinguished as they die awtiv like the plaintive wailing of a ;i it. Thomson, in the "Castle of Indolence," gives a beautiful account of the music of the -Eolian harp: Kaeh Kound it Rives, to languishm nt incline .1 Lulls tb? w ale liosoiu and I duces case; A rial nut.-'le iu th warbling wind At ilitHU-.-1 risitiir oft, by s mill deitreos Nearer i.u-1 nearer come 1 1! o'er the trees It ham 'ivl h eat he such soul-(lisolvina airs.

As an additional contribution to tho now much-mooted subject as to the origin of the word masher, we would suggest that it is by no means of modern birth, but comes from a phrase in a play written by Beaumont and Fletcher, "Mashed in Love," where mashed is used as an alteration of tho word meshed. "A Tinker's Dam." The expression is frequently used, but its meaning is known to but few. Hero is an explanation : A tinker's dam is a dam of dough, or other suitable material, constructed by a tinker to confine his molten solder to the bu-iness in hand; and, inasmuch as when a tii-ker's dam has once served its purpose it possesses little or no commercial value, the phrase has come to be frequently used nnd almost universally understood as the synonym of worthles-noss. "That's tho Ticket, "This slang expression corresponding in moauing to the above is a corruption of "That's the etiquette" that's the proper mode of procedure. Elitruetie is the French word for ticket, and its present meaning in English arose from an old custom of distributing tickets, or etiquette, upon which tho ceremonies to be observed at any formal proceedings were duly set forth. The raoderi word "programme" exactly corresponds to the old etiquette. Mr. Brick's Lunch Can. Somebody got ot Mr. Brick's lunch can and cooked onions in it, and as he can't endure that vegetable he got the notion that ho never could get the taste out of the o.in. and so he threw it away. Mr. Brick is the baggage-master on a train, and he had the can made for him and his address put upon it. Wh 'it he got back from work the day ho threw tho can away, he found that one of tho neighbor's children had picked it up and returned it. He ap-prcrittt.-d the kindness of the c!-ild, but took the can and chucked it into another neighbor's garden. In half an hour that n ighbor sent it home. Then ho determined to get rid of it anyhow, and ho took it to the do-, pot the next day a:;d threw it into the freight depot. Then lie went into the depot for a minute, aud ou rctu' ning lo his ear found some one hail picked up the cau and left it for him. tuito exasperated, he chucked it into an empty car t:;at was being hi'-nlcd away toward Chicago, and he didn t see it'agan until the next day, wm n it arri-.ed in an express package on which he had to pay 75 cents. Then ho tore around prodigiously, and tied it to a dog's tail aud the dog ran off with it, and this was an unlucky move, for half an hour Liter the dog's owuer brought the can back and tried to thrash Mr. Brick for a'msing his dog, the iVfitlt bring arrest nnd fines. Then Utek was thoroughly aroused, nnd ho took the can and s ink it otf a dock. Tho next day when ho entered his ear there stood something douo up in paper that he knew to bo his can, and ho kicked i sixty feet into the air, and had to pay $'10 for tho valuable bird in the cage. Then he felt sure that he was rid of th.' thing, but a diver happened to find it, uid got thumped on tho head for returning it. Then Brick took the can home, and at night filled it wiWi dynamite and exploded it. The people in

the neighborhood, who wore violently hurled from t!-e!r beds by tho shock, nero quite indignant; and when they found out what caused it they attempted to tar and feather Brick, and he had to pay a urap for repairing the windows wrecked. And, to add to his horror, he found he had taken, instead of the can ho detested, a new one, nnd ho was about wild, and concluded that he never should got rid of the thing. But ono day he induced some one to borrow it, and he has never se;n it sinoe. Germa ntown Telegraph.
