Sine las vriting THe EXAMINER, Thanksviving Day, Which, next io the iFourth of July, is the most popular ot American holidays, has come,and gone, and Thanksgiving Day is one which will long be remembered by. the people of Boston fer reasons other than those general'y connected with that usually festive oceasion. In five fimilies the anniversary in the future will bring sad remembrances and sorrowful hearts. There. seems {to be an epidemic of fires, if 1 may so write. T this particular The great fire in Lynn was followed by one in Boston, which at one time threatened to be a repetition of the disastrous fire of 1872. As it was, some eight or ten millions of property was destroyed and five brave firemen lost their lives. It is to the families of these that Thanksgiving Day in the futuro will be anything but a day of rejoicing. One of the dead tiremen, Murnan, leaves a wife and six or seven small helpless children, and the others, with one exception, leave families that were dependent upon them, and that one uo doubt leives some one be- j ft has not been thought possible of late, with the splendid facilities for fighting fire possessed by the city of Boston, and the recognized daring and ability of her tiremeu, for a fire to make such headway and assume such alarm- ing proportious as the one which at one time on Thanksgiving day threatened to destroy the business section of Boston. Nor under different condi- tions would —it, perhaps, be possibie. Had it been a day when business was being carried on as usual, and everyone at his post, the chances are that the fire would ; \have been discovered as soon as the electric spar) started the work of destruction. But ag it was, business being entirely suspended, ' anyone who has lived here knows that on! free.”—Eveirives. } ISLAND. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1889. VOL. 25.—NO. 14 Christian Church to-day, in her struggle with the carelessness aud indifference to- ward religion shown in large cities in par- ticular, One thing is noticeable by a per- usal of the papers read, and that is a dis- position to break away, toa great extent, from old methods and procedures in reach- ing the masses, the desire also being uni- versally expressed for. more cooperation amoung the different religious bodies and re- cognition of the importance of auxiliary lay work, To-day Boston elects her Mayor and buard of aldermen, common council, &c. There are three candidates for Mayor in the field, but, as the saying is, ** only two of them are in it,” they being Mr. Hart, the present incumbent, and Mr. Owen Galvin, the Democratic nominee. Last year long before this time in the even- ing it could be told to a certainty who was elected ; indeed at any time of the day you could be informed at any voting precint just how the poll stood. But now all this is done away with by the introduction of the Australian system of voting, which is virtually the same as yours, but more of a delusion and a snare to the ignorant voter here than with you, because of the numer- ous candidates for the different offices, which with you are appointments, against whose name he has to put his X. But there are ways of getting over that difliculty if he cannot read, for 1 heard of the case of one illiterate voter at the State election who managed to learn the letter D, which at the end of a candidates name signifies Demo- crat, and as he explained it wherever he siw the letter D on his ballot he put this mark. Perhaps more interest is cen- tered in to-day’s election onthe question of- whether license shali be granted for the sale of intoxicating liquors; which question is submitted to the people of each town every year, as there seems to be a disposition on the part of many young Democrat voters, who always have voted ** Yes,” to punish the liquor dealers whom they accuse of sell- _ old Factory.

Toronto Saturday Night's Christmas num- ber just issued isthe most artistic Christ- mas number ever printed in Oanada. It consists of forty p:ges of pictures, song and story, all original and illustrative of Cana- dian life, and one which when mailed to friends in the old Jand will not compare un- favorably with the best productions of London and Paris. A dozen full page illus- trations, all by Canadian artists and en- graved and lithographed without regard to expense, wil lend a great attractiveness to the edition, and in every page some charm- ing picture relieves the text. A hest of poets, fiction writers and essayists have contributed, while sketches, fairy tales and many charmiug things for children are pro- vided by other coutributors. This holiday number so far surpasses the one issued last year by Saturday Night that no comparison can be made. If you wish to send a Christmas souvenir to a friend abroad, noching will be more ap- preciated than Saturday Night's holiday number. The art pictures are not copies of Old Country engravings, nor a job lot of lithographs, but exquisite photogravures of Canadian subjects. Not « line of reprint nor a copied picture appears in the whole forty pages. The paper throughout is heavily glazed; the printing cannot he ex- celled, and the cover, with its heavy, gold margin, contains a realistic Rocky Mountain akketch.
