Barring the self-laudatory speech of Mr. Roosevelt, who confined his remarks to his own performances, every address in the convention or at the Banquets has run to large issues and has dealt with them ina sincerity that infused many passages with genuine eloquence. It is especially gratifying to note the fervor with which the pa- triotism of Aimerican citizenship has been sounded by all the speakers. Tt has been the refrain, repeated in chorus as it were, after every varying verse. Whether ihe orator spoke for orthodoxy or for re-| form, the spirit was always that of an exalted love for the Republic. | As Mr. Oscar Straus put it: “While Zionism is a ehild of despair in countries where the victims of oppression are still counted by millions, the republicanism of the United States is the nearest approach to + the ideals of the prophets of Israel that has ever been incorporated | in the form of a State.” | a | SUMMER HATS FOR SALE. N enterprising shopkeeper uptown filled his window | the other day with Panama hats and placed over them an announcement to the effect that there is going to be a shortage of such goods next summer | and that now is the time for the wise man to get a bargain. As the display happened to coincide with the coming of the coldest Masts of the winter, it doubtless appeared to many shivering mortals more like an exhibition of a distempered fancy than a real business proposition. Nevertheless it not only caught the eye but compelled attention; it was noted where endless displays of midwinter bargains | passed unheeded. » .

F a milkman’s wife had not delayed her task of milking until after nightfall on Oct. 8, 1871, one of America’s great catastrophies might have been avoided. d Chicago in those days was a city of about 234,000 inhabitants, and its furthest limits bounded an area of eighteen square miles. A great deal of it was built of wood. Its North Side was almost wholly wooden, even to the sidewalks, as was much of the West Side, The South Side’s business district held many wooden houses, too, and numbers of the brick and stone buildings were not fireproof. Altogether the city was alive with what would now be called firetraps.” During the summer and early autumn of 1S71 the Middic West was cursed by a drought that changed the prairie grass into crackling hay, baked @l, moisture out of the ground and turned Chicago's wooden houses into tinden It was a time when any blaze was bound to be disastrous. On Saturday, Oct. 7, a flre—the biggest that swept fanz olocks wiicago had ever known of buildings (between Clinton, Adams and Vin Puren streets and ¢he South Branch).

The fire department worked gallantly but uselessly to stem the tide of horror. Engine after engine was cut off by the flames and abandoned. Then the city water works burned down, and all water supply was thus stopped. The last feeble hope of resistance w: ended, And the city was left wholly to its fate. For twenty-five hours the conflagration raged on. at time It i wrecked more than three square miles; &t killed people and rendered 98,500 penniless and jess; destroyed $19,000,000 worth of property (including 17,450 buildings), had rendered forty-six insurance compa- nies insolvent, and had turned a vast part of a prosperous city into a smoking ruin, ‘Tyuly a gruesome flame-harvest to have sprung from one broken lamp!
