Public sentiment in Dot unanimous Id regard to the healthfuluess of using tobacco.

Everybody who saw the body of a negro upon whom a hogshead of to basco fell from the third story of a New Orleaai warehouse conceded that to bacco taken In large quantities is in jurious. Tobacoo Ik wild by some to hswe a demoralizing effeot. An India man taught his dog, a very tine setter, to chew tobacco. Now the dog comes into the house by the back door, never scrapes his feet on the mat, never goes to church, is careless at his meals, gets bums in bis tail, goes with a lower grade of dogs and is begiuuiug to tjike an Interest In politics. A goat, it is well known, is fond of to bacco but he freely gives away his butts.

All kinds of troubles and complica tions are ascribed to tobacco. It is said tc cause tobacco blindness. Still we have never found any friends of ours to be afflicted with it when we have In cautiously left a choice cigar exposed in our vest pocket. Ladies generally object to smoking, but it takes an old smoker to get up on bis ear and bowl four bladed adjectives at the ruffian who Is idiotic enough to smoke bad tobacco. If a woman's hus band smokes, she should Dot put him out, but let bim down as easy as she would a smoking lamp.

Tho smoker, on the other hand, has many compensations. If be should be shipwrecked on a cannibal island, he is oomforted by the thought that his body will be respected, ine cannibals don't relish the flesh of a man who chews or smokes. The man who smokes Is not molested by mosquitoes. Tbey can't stand smok iqg. Detroit Free ress.

8. The great tire of Sunday morning continues to be the talk of tho city. It broke out a few minutes to 3 o'clock The devouring element was discovered at that hour in the basement of the (ilobe building As the wind was blowing briskly from' the south and the fire threatened to spread, another alarm was g'Veu and the entire fire department was soou ou the spot. Chief Ardagh and live meu of the brigade mounted to the cornice runuing around the lirst ftory of the (ilobe ofliice and were breaking windows to introduce a hose when the northwest wall, from the cornice up, fell with a crash. The men leaped into the pile of bricks.

Chief Ardagh was badly wounded about the head and had to be removed iu a cub. Rolx i Bowarrie received such it jur ies that ho was taken to the hospital, when hedied Charles Smedley, Francis Ft rsyth, JameB Davidson and llarty Saunders were severely injured.

The insurance reaches to a trifle over $100,000 The Toronto iitbngraph Company, which occupied a floor in the building loses all its presses nl many valuable stones. From the Globe building tin flames crossed i s.e Meet to Harry Webb's restaurant, and that building was gutted from roof to cellar. The loss on the building was on linstock $50,000. Iu the rear of Mitchi i Italian nieic'ianls, the building was also damaged.

The wii.d then changed, blowing from the east, and McKinuon new wholesale dry goods store was soon wiped out of exis tence, entailing a loss of $70,000 or. Unbuilding and lnu.linu on the stock, which had been tiiuvi iu ouly a few davsaiio Mr. McKinnon, dry goods, lost every thing. He telegraphed his old coun'rv buyer to ship goods Iiinin diati ly and will resume business The following firms also suffered: Millar Richaids, typefounders; Ilaworth Co, belting; Wm. Hrough, printing.

The loss of the Toronto Lithographing Co. is placed a' 1150,000, with insurance for half that amount. The lntal loss will foot up to a sum between $750,000 and $1,000,000. That one half of the Queen City was not swept by ft itnes was due to the spe cial interposition of Providence, who seut a blanket of sno the day before to cover the buildir.gs and prevent the burning brands setting lire to them. The inability of tin lire department to contend against the conflagration caus td a severe shock, for with all the apparatus at its disposal the brigade seemed powerless to cope with the liie The World and the News were the lirst newspaper offices to pi tee their establishments at the di posal of the (ilobe, to enable the lnanageuicut to pro luce the several editions of that journal as usual.

At a me.eting of the directors held on Monday afternoon a resolution wa pa sed to begin the cot ur lioii of the Globe buildicg on a more maviiili cein scale than before, operations to be giu at the earliest possible moment.

'1 be cause of the fire is ascribe to leakage of gass in I lie buddings adjoii ing Sunday's blaze, nee isioned by tV.t disturbance of the gas mains and pip at that time.

Reconciliation Complete. Now York, Rev.

Dr Kdward McGlynn, will, early on Christmas morning, celebrate mass in this city for the lirst time sir ce Archbishop Corrigan removed bim from the rectorship of St. Stephen's church, exactly eight years ago this month. Further than that. Dr. McGlynn, will, on the first day of the new year, take charge of a parish in a city about 50 miles from here, with the disth ct understanding that, as soon as il vacancy occurs iu a enurcn in i ns 'V worthy of bis accept ance, he is to be made the lector.

All this is the result ot a meeting between Aic'ibishop Corrigan and the pliest ou Friday mornii and fr'n nds of Dr. Me (ihnn say that the pr'n st did not re i i ib oi.e step fr nn the position he as suiiied many years and which I 'd to his troubles.

The police on guard attempted to drive them out, but thev were overw helmed by tho infill iated mob and forced to retire, leafing the place at the mercy of the invaders.

Tho Assembly not being in session, few members were iu the building at the time but those who weru lost no time in fleeing fiotn the jd Prlice reserves were summoned and, after a desperate struggle, managed to ej ct the intruders In the afternoon the crowd re assembled and returned to the Government Hoiibc, liprei1 coinpl.iiind lo the Governor of its treatment during the morning and reiteratad iU demand for relief.

Tho hour of convening tho session was near at hand and kunig the determination of the mob, lh.se inside, being informed of its approach, began preparations to prevent it entry. The doors were barricaded, and the whole of the police force available were stationed around the building.

After waiting some time the mob aeeiug that no attention was being made to hs demands by those itisde the building, niado a rush for the door. Tho police were powerless to stem the tide 'of the infuriated mass and manv cflicors were injured. F'inally Premier Green ap peared on the balcony, and in a speech expressed regret at the condition of tho colony and tho deslitnUon'prcvailing among people. He prom'sed that employment would be given within three days and begged the crowd to have patience and confidence in ihe Government. He promisi to res'gn if work was not provided ivilhiu the lime specified.
