Spectacular B.aze at At-

ture e along thet seafront of this resort,
was destroyed by fire early to -day. Oee

W as seriously injured.
The pier was about 2,500 feet long -
'
The whole structure, with the exception
of about 150 feet at the phore end, wae
tompletely destroyed. The loss is esti-
Ina.ted at $250,000, and is only partly
esevered by ineuranee.
The fire was One of the most aped:tett-
lar in this city in years, and created tre-
Mendoue exeiteinent among the guests
of the many hotels in the vity.. For-
tunately the wind was off shore, which
prevented the names from ereeeing to-
ward the board walk and epreading to
the big hotek: and other buildings that
form a tsolid line along the oceanfront.
The flames were diecovered altortly

vation Was eonditienee 'upon their con-
stant obedience to the preaching which
they had received from Paul, It Was not
enough to remember, as an. act of the
mind, his preaching, but they needed to
remember it in tho sense ef praetiaing
it eenstantly. This involve4 an aetive,
steady faith. unless yo have believed
in vain -They could have "believed in
vain" only (1) by failing to grasp the
spiritual import and benefit to them
of Christ's resurrection or (2) by believ.
ing in Christ's resurrection if he did uot
rise from the dead. Their changed char.
after and life bore evidente to the fact
that they had not "believed in vain."
3. 1 delivered....that which I also re.
eeived-Paul expresses the fact
that his message was given at "received,"
with perfect exactness, Every item has
been carefully guarded. He repeats it
with all the fornutlity of a profession
of faith.-Whedon. lie does not state
the source or eoureee from which ho er-
calved the truths which he uttered, but
it is evident that he wee in some mese-
ure instructed through his intercourse
with the disciplee. See Acts 9:19. "And
what he bad receiee-d from ,other e he
tested by examination of the scriptures,
by prayer and silent communing with
God, till it became .las own, by rerela-
tion and by that inward •conetetion
which none but God Call give." -Lias
The expression, "first of •all," implies
that the truths about to be repeated
were considered of first importanee as
foundational to the Christian systein.

BRADSTREET'S TRADE REVIEW.
Montreal reports to 13radstreet's say
tho week has seen little chancrtse in trade
conditions there. The weather bee been
more spring-like, and EIS a result, the
moventent of spring lines at retail has
been better. General wholesale trade is
ale() brisk. Sorting orders are corning
in, and considering the earliness of the
season, they are for an excellent as-
sortment of linos. The Season's business
has to far been sarprisiegly good, not-
witeetanding the fact that considerable
fear has been felt owing to crop, damage
in the west. Eastern trade has been
good all throtigh. The opening of navi-

Will 'cause intense suffering to the teivcs
and families of the unemployed men,
who, besides being short of food, have
exhausted every particle of available
fuel.
A few factories in some districts
which have been hoarding coal in case of
emergency, were able to re -open their
works to the men this morning, as they
are now assured of future suppliee, but
others whieh had no coal in stock, as

iron Works in La,ncashire, which have
been hitherto kept going by the exercise
of strictest economy, will now be forced
to shut down for a short time at hast.
Outside the ranks of the miners there
are more men out of work to-dixy than
there were a week ago and it is calcu-
lated that the unemployed now number
considerably over two millions in all
parts of the country,
It is estimated that up to date the
loss in wages filen° since the beginning
of the strike amounts to $00,000:000.
The bulk of the miners in Warwick- -
shire resumed work to -day, and at the
Dudley coal fields in Woroestshire coal
drawing is in progress generally. There
was a partial reeumption this morning
in the Forest of Dean mines and else-

GOING 33ACK.
New York, April 1.-A London cable
seem: If there was not quite a rush of
striking miners back to the collieries,
repors from the coal centrcs this morn-
ing show that something very like it
took place. It seemed very uncertain
yesterday what would be the result of
thu ballot, as in the great mining (Us-
triet of the Forest of Dean the men
did not come to any decision, but this
morning notices were posted every-
where that the miners were ready to go
to work.
Another very fitrorable symptom is
that at the collieries in Flintshire. the
men are preparing to return to work, and
still better Deli's from the Mold and
Theckley districts, where the surfeeemen,
who at first appeared dissatisfied that
the minimum wage acedule did not ap-
ply to them, are busy to -day preparing
the pits for work,
The North Wales districts show a
very, large preponderance of votes in
favor of an immediate resumption, and
hence it is fully expected that the mal-
contents in Lancashire and elsewhere,
seeking work in other districts starting
up, will soon mate into line.
It it hoped that work will be general
by Thursday and that all the pits
throughont the country will have re-
sumed by Raster Tuesday,.

Electricity to be Extracted
From Coal in the Earth.
Cambridge, Ataes April 1. -The chthet
recently made by certain English seien-
tists as to the postibility of eftving coal
muting exile:1Ft, by turning the energy
of the coal into electricity at the mines,
hare the Approval and support of Prof.
Comfort A, Adams, of Harvard. In a.
statement regarding the work of the
proposed new oleetrieal laboratory here,
Prof. Adams said that fie believes that
some day Boston, New York and other
cities will receive their electricity for
heating, lighting and power by wire front
the coal fields.
The installation of e million volt
transformer in the Mtwara laboratory
will, it is believed, prove that such a
scheme is feasible. The Harverd experts
hope to show that by using a current of
1,000,000 volts eleetrieity may be ecnn-
omically Parried distances of 1,000 ram
or more.
