on the 9TH day OF September last Joseph
Schneider. a German lad OF Is years OF age, was
fatally stabbed in the abdomen with knife In the
hands Of James McCaw, also a boy. The ARRAY
took place on the corner OF Pearl and New
Chambers street, and full report appeared in
the HERALD OF the Sth OF September. Coroner
Young took the case in charge but In consequence
Of the fight OF the juvenile murderer, the nvcsti
cation was postponed from time to time In order
to give the Fourth Precient Police an opportunity
to arrest the fugitive. McGaw, however, had friends
OF sufficient mean and political influence To prevent
his being brought back to the city and State and no
is still In one OF the New England States where 1t
is proposed to keep him for an indefinite period or
TIL such time as 1t shall be perfectly safe for him
to return. Coroner Young, finding that the ends
of public justice were not to be subserved by
further delay, yesterday concluded his stgaton
by the examination Of witnesses in possession Of
the facts. The jury rendered verdict against Nc
cav, and efforts for his arrest are still being made
McGaw Is about fifteen years 0f age.

1t is lamentable fact that sectarian Christians,

plain and simple truths OF the Bible into shapes both
monstrous and absurd Such course, venture to

efforts OF Its most bitter and persistent enemies.
This was true In the Dark Ages, and is far more
so now, when the world Is more enlightened than IL

priests or frightened out OF their wits by the super
stitious teachings OF canting religionsts. The
spirit OF liberty, widely difYused the civilized
portions OF the globe, has unmanaclcd tho human
mind, until freedom OF thought and freedom Of
speech are almost universal.
In connection with this subject II IT, perhaps, not

Bible instead OF using nature to interpret the Bible;
for we may be assured until the light OF nature and

MORE ABOUT SEWING MACHINES.
Common Sense-StartIing Disclosures
Read Carefully, it will astonish, prof
it, and crafty you.

The manufacturers and agents in the interest
of other SEWN Machines, represent that the
AMERICAN SEWING MACHINE is of no account
That 1t will wear out in short time and advise
persons desiring to purchase Sewing Machines to
Buy any other Sewing Machine than an Ameri-
can" The reason they falsely represent the
American Buttonhole and Overcoming Sewing
Machine, is that their bread and butter depends
upon it, for wherever the American is introduced,
it's reputa tion is established and the calling OF its
enemies ended people will buy no other Ma.
chine. The American Buttonhole, Overs canning
and Sewing Machine Company, with its immense
factories and large stores and warerooms in Phil
adelphia, together with it's large capital employed
exclusively in the Sewing Machine interest can
not and dare not, make anything but the very
best quality of Sewing Machines. 1t has too much
money and interest at stake. No person
should entertain supposltion for a moment that
the American Sewing Machine Company would
place upon the market Sewing Machine that is
not first class in every respect knowing full well
that any other than first class machine would be
total failure and bring financial ruin to its stock
holders chagrin and modification to its officers
and great satisfaction to its enemies and competi
tors. Notwithstanding the unprecedented sue
cess and popularity OF the American Sewing Ma
chine, there are still u few incTedulous people
easily Influenced by the representa- tions ofa few
leading machines and relying on the merits of
machine by the greatest number sold and If that
is a true test the Wheeler q Wilson lie the second
best IN the market and who will believe that p
not even the man himself that has the article in
the HERALD about Sewing Machines. People at
this time and age of the world are not easily
humbugged they read and think for themselves.
Now in conclusion have only this to say: Be-
fore buying Sewing Machine, examine every
one IN the market and make a hote of everything
that is said detrimental 10 the American Machine
then carefully examine tht American, and Grover
u Baker. Try them, tie st them thoroughly, COM
pare them to the representations made regarding
Them by their enemies and you will be perfectly
satisfied that the American, and Grover & Baker
Sewing Machines are good, reliable fret class
machines and you can save ten dollars by buying
either of those machines.
