PLAYING ELIJAH.

The Alexandria (Va.) Gazette tells this
story: "A man named George Troupe
has lust made as decided failure in an
attempt to play the part Of Elijah as was
ever made before. Thirteen days ago,
when Mr.. james Atkinson reopened his
wheelwright shop, he told Troupe, who
had been living with him for the last
twenty years, that he wanted him to 60 to
work again; but Troupe responded that he
| had promised the Lord not to work for
man any more and that the Lord had
promised to provide for him; and, dressing
| himselfin the clothes he usually wore on
Sunday, bid Mr.. Atkinson's family good
by, and walked away, taking with him,
however, nothing except the clothes upon
his person From this time nothing was
heard from him until late yesterday eve
ming, when u grave-digger named Waddy
| informed Mr. Atkinson that he had found
| him lying in the Presbyterian burying-
| ground, starved almost to death, and so
weak that he conld not crawl to the spring.
| Mr.. a. at once went to his relief and
brought him back again to his house, and
under the kind and attentive treatment
he is receiving there he will probably soon
recover his strength He had been where
| he was found for the last twelve DAYS,
during which time he had eaten two pea
ches and Il pear, but the crows, though
they flew over him regularly every NOR
| ming and evening, never once brought him
any bread or flesh.

MURDERED FOR FIVE CENTS.

from the New. York Standard, Sept. sth)
West Bortieth street, near Nineth aven
ne, was on Wednesday evening the scene
of which parsimony on one side and pas
sion on the other were the cause-and in
which man lost his life for five cents.
The facts are, John Ryder, a Joiner resid'
ing at No. 952 First avenue, and working
on n new building on Nineth avenue, near
Forty-ffth street. While on his way
home from work went into the lager beer
saloon of Valentine Kissel, No. 634 West
Fortieih street, and drank a glass Of beer,
and walked out without paying. He was
followed by Kisscl, who asked him to pay
the FIVE cents. Ryder said he would pay
on Saturday, but Kissel insisted that he
should pay then and there. Ryder had a
saw under his arm, and this he drew and
struck Kissel powerful blow on the back
of the nekc, the sharp points Outing into
the base Of the skull and touching the
brain. Kissel fell to the ground, and roll
cd and grcaned as if dying. He was car
ried into his residence and o surgeon was
summoned who dressed the wound. Ry-
der was arrested by Officer Divine, and
was taken to Jefferson Market yesterday
morning, and was locked up to await the
rrsult Of Kissels injuries. DR.. Cuss, Of
Thirty-seventh street, sent note TO court,
stating that he had attended kissel and
had no hope Of his recovery.
