NINTH STREET METHODIST CayEOH.

WASHINGTON, August 21, 1870
At the Ninth street Methodist church Rev. Dr.
Drnkhouse took for hts subject "Crucinxion Before
Glorlfcation,' ana selected as an illustrative text
Matthew twentieth chapter, twenty-eighth verse
'.Even as the Son OF man came not to be minstered
untO but to minister, and to give his lite ASA ram
som for many" After a brief explanation OF the
meaning of the text and its relation to the verses
which preceded 1t, the reverend gentleman
commented upon the story Of Salome,
the mother OF Zebedee's children, who hay
Ing brought her sons, James and John, to
our Saviours presence, asked that one might be
seated his left and the other his right hand
His Kingdom Christ asked were they able to drink
OF his cup and to receive His baptism. Their mex
perience In a Christians warfare and their conf
dence In their own strength prompted the hasty
answer ave are ablen Jesus replied that the seats
they Should indeed, drink or His cup and receive
His baptism James died a martyrs death, while
John endured banishment, thus confirming the
Lords prediction. To our own life the subject was
equally applicable The seats at the right and left
hands Of the master Of q house are to
this day regarded as places OF distinctive
honor; but they were peculiarly SO in the days OF
which the text speaks. In those days victorious
leaders Of civic and military fame purchased these
distinguished seats by the side OF th0r rulers with
that tie only way TO mount 10 these high places OF
glory In the spiritual kingdom was by the ordeal OF
suffering and true humility In the service OF love-
which Is the measure OF Christian greatness. To

BARN BURNED-About o'clock on
the evening of the 7th inst, Mr.. Thomas
Watts, of Monroe township, discovered
fire in a straw stack in front of his barn.
He ran TO the barn to save what he could
from the Games. The first thing that he
reached was his buggy. 1t was IN Its
place in the wagon-shed. he showed 1t
out, and again rau into tho shed to draw
out a wagon. On going in, he fell over
an object that lay unnotieed in his way
He sprang up and looked at what he had
fallen over. 1t was an open trunk, and
belonged to a lady who had been at Mr..
Watts come weeks. The trunk had
been taken from the house by some un-
known person that day or evening and
rifed of its contents and then left IN the
shed. It is believed that the trunk was
robbed and the straw stack fred by one

that it works like cham: Take of gum

of an egg, and evaporate it by placing it
in vessel and holding it over lamp or
candle, taking care that it does not ignite.
The smoke will soon fill the room and

AyoTHER MURDER The Clearfield
Rofsmen's S Jouraal says: On Saturday
| last, September Sd, A most barbarnus
murder took place on Market street, in
this place substantially under the follow
ing circumstances Some time in the af
ternoon man named Frank Meader. re.
siding in Lawrence township, and n. L.
Robins, of this place, got into a dispute
and quarrel when Martin Harder, resid-
ing in the borough, and VIM. Dale, OF
Lawrence township, intertered to prevent
fight. The parties then separated. A
little after five o clock, however, Harder
and Robins again walked down street
Dale stopped Robins to make some ex-
PLANTATION in reference to his interference
in preventing the previous fight While
making the explanation the lie" passed
between Harder and Dale, which result
ed in an alteration between the two
during which the former cut the latter
five times with pocket knife which he
had in his hand at the time-one cut tax
ing effect on the crown of the head, an
other Just above the left ear, third in
the right breast just below and back OF
the nipple, fourth about two inches from
the lower end of the breast bone, and the
fifth mere scratch on the skin in the left
groin. d.
A post n,ortem examination revealed
the fact that the stab in the right side en-.
tered the middle lobe of the right lung
about an inch, while the one in the breas,
passed upwards and into the heart about
two inches This latter cut was evident
ly the last one inflicted, and while Dale
was in a STOPPING position. Dale
lived about ten minutes after being stab
bed. Harder was promptly arrested and
lodged in Jail to await his trial for the
horrible deed which he committed. Rob.
ins was also afterwards arrested and lodg
ed in jail as an accessory in being par
ty in the original fight although it is said
he endeavored to prevent the alteration
between Harder and Dale
Quite number Of persons were close
by at the time of the alteration, and
rushed forward to prevent it, but the fata
deed was done before they could reach
the combatants.
This sad and lamentab!e affair created
much excitement among those who wit
messed it, as we'll as in the community
generally. In fact the excitement was
so intense that some were favorable to
inflicting summary vengeance upon the
perpetrator of the deed. We hope this
fatal affray will be an effectual warning to
all persons who are predisposed to be
ouarrelsome and use deadly weapons.
The murdered man was conveyed to
his home shortly after the occurrence, and
his funeral took place on Monday morn
ing last He leaves wife and four chill
dren TO mourn his tragic death.
