The principal losses are as follows: The Emery Lumber Company, of East Saginaw, Mich. suffer a loss of $40,000, insured for $30,000. The Moore Lumber Company, of Detroit, loses $20,000, covered by insurance. Good Advice from Cardinal Gibbons. Baltimore, July 21. Cardinal Gibbons, in an address of congratulation to the congregation of St. Vincent's Church, used these words: 'When we find the most upright citizens taking no interest in politics, showing no zeal for the good government of the country, we may expect political stagnation and corruption. But when the best citizens manifest interest in public affairs we have good government and honest administration of public trusts. It is the duty of every man to take an active personal interest in the welfare of his country, and to see that the best citizens are elected to public places." Where the Sectionalism Comes In Nebraska Journal. It is a favorite war-cry of the Democratic statesmen, North as well as South, that if the Lodge election bill passes for the inspection of elections "in the South," they will demand that a similar bill be passed for the North." This is characteristic of Democratic orators and editors. The Lodge bill, of course, applies as much to the North as it does to the South. There are no sectional lines about it, except in the conscience of the Democratic party, that feels that it is probably in the South that - the bill will have the most effect, because of the eccentric modes of making out election returns from sundry congressional districts down there. Where Political Tower Lies in Missouri. Kansas City Star. Speaking of the mention which has been made of ex-Governor Crittenden as a candidate for Vice-president, tho Topeka Capital says: "Crittenden made a bitter warfare on the Democratic leaders ot Missouri when Governor, and the rank and file of the Earty would fight him to tho death. When e broke up the James gang he cooked bis political gooso." Some Democratic "Kicker" Would De Found. Memphis Avalanche (DemJ Mr. Vandiver, of California, has introduced a bill providing a pension of $3,000 a year to tho widow of the late Gen. John C. Fremont and daughter of the grand old statesman, Thomas II. Benton. The country will make no objection to the granting of that pension. . m m A Better position. Philadelphia Press. The Abolitionists were always attacked because their agitation would "embitter" the South. This is the objection some descendants of the Abolitionists make now to Mr. Lodge and his election bill.

KNIGHT A JILLHON. 7ofe 77 8.Penutsrlvaniat CHILD KEN OF TIIK KAISER. Household Anecdotes as to How They Are Drought Up. That tho Emperor William brings up his little sons like soldiers is well known. They rise with the sun and go to bed at 6 or 7, and the. Pall Mall Gazette says further: 'Five o'clock is their usual hour of rising, and they are not allowed to remain in bed for a minute after they wake, as the Emperor thinks that tbe habit of lying in bed encourages self-indulgence The two youngest have an English governess; but the three eldest are under tho care of a military tutor and waited upon, by men servants. If they run to the nursery their tutor asks if they bave been there to have a baby's bottle.' " Ve went there for prayers,' said ono of the princes when rebuked. 'Prayers will be read in my room for tho future,' said tho tutor, who has received orders from the Emperor to observe military discipline in tho princes' apartments. "The Crown Prince is aware that ho will one day bo Emperor. He discovered the fact for himself, although he is always styled Prince William, and, by his fathers command, has never been told that there is any difference between himself and his brothers. He is a clever boy, full of fun, but with a great idea of his own importance. Prince Eitel Frederick is a favorite with every one, partly because he is so handsome, partly on account of his sweet disposition. He is a born soldier, and delights in making mimic war with his tin soldiers, who represent all the nations of Europe. The princes aro devoted to their father and mother. It is no uncommon thing to lind the Empress in the nursery before 0 o'clock in the morning, dressed and ready to begin the day. In the middle of winter she may be seen walking in tho Thiergarten with, her husband by 8 o'clock. "All day long she is busy receiving visitors, performing public functions, or writing for the Emperor until her hand aches. Uoth the Emperor and Empress are very conscientious. They are determined to fulfill the duties imposed npon them by their position. But the Empress grieves over the fact thot she cannot spend much time with her children. When she was simply Princess William she heard the princes say their prayers every night, superintended the nurseries, and insisted upon rigid economy. The clothes of one little Prince were banded on to his younger brother by her orders, and nothing was wasted. Now she is obli ged to content herself with embroidering the clothes of her babies. She is an accomplished needlewoman, and very fond of sewing. "Hut very few people give her credit for tbe 6b are she takes in the Emperor's work. It is a great mistake to imagine that she is a mere hansfran. Those who imagine this should have seen her on horseback at the last military review, dressed in tbe uniform of her regiment, which ebo led past the Emperor. She is exceedingly popular in Germany, not only on account of her domestic virtues, but becanto she has strengthened the German empire by bringing into the world fiva sons. Presents are showered npon her for the children. But the presentsnever reach the nursery. Probably few children are so, simply fed or dressed as the little princes. They are taught to despise luxury and to look down upon affectation. "'Are the plush costumes coming to-day t' the Crown Prince luquired on his birthday. He referred to some little playmates who always visit him in velvet." Very Alarming News. Memphis Avalanche (Dem.) There is not living ,in all the world today a sinsle ruler be be Czar. Emperor. King or President who possesses such absolute, unlimited, unchecked power as does the President of the United State.
