LATE NEWS SUMMARY.
EAST

The funeral of forty-eight of the
victims Of the disaster at Holyoke took place
on the 29th in the basement of the new Catho-
lie church. An immense crowd wes in at
tendance. The cofins were placed on dias
in the center of the room and after some
thirty-five cofins had been thus arranged, the
platform gave waY, causing momentary
was carried out, but the excitement soon sub
sided. Funeral orations were pronounced by
the Rev. Fathers Primeaue, Of Worcester
and Gagnier, Of this city. The procession was
more than mile long and followed the re-
mains to the French Catholic cemetary at
South Hadley Falls.
Forest fires have again broke cut in
the mountains of Delaware and Sullivan coun-
ties, New York, doing much damage. The
village OF Bethel, in Sullivan county, was sur
rounded by fire two days, and was only saved
after hard fight. A farmer named VIM.
COrbin, Of Delaware county, was surrounded
by fire while fighting the flames in his woods
and burned to death. Two other men similarly
engaged were badly burned and narrowly es-
capped with life. Near Manayunk Valley, Sui
ivan county, fire was accidentally started
able timber, mill and three hundred thou
sand feet Of lumber were destroyed. In the
towns of FalIsburg and Mamakating the con-
fagrations are so fierce that families have
been obliged to fly from their houses to save
their lives, leaving all their household goods,
stock, etc, to be destroyed.

J. Hale Sypher, ex-member of con-
gress, and a. J. Sypher, planters, of st. Mary's
parish, La, have gone into bankruptcy. Their
partnership liabilities are over $40, 900, and
the assets less than $25, 900. Their individual

A shooting affray occurred at a Gro
quet party near Bremen, Ky, last week, in
which John Sparks, George Gish and Lige
Divine were all wounded. Several others took
a hand. 1t is thought that Gish viii not re-

his arm badly broken. None of the others

Reports of great destitution come
from the mountain counties in Kentucky. a
letter from the master of the grange in Britt
county says that the people ale suffering fol-
the very necessaries Of life, and t, if aid is
not given, many will die of starvation. The
crops have failed for three seasons in success
sion, and the cattle are dying for want OF
food. The writer asks for general subscrip-
ton among the patrons of Kentucky,
One hundred car loads of new iron are
now arriving from New Albany, to be re-laid
upon the Memphis and Charleston road, com
mencing at this point and going west. Major
Meriwether informed US that the track be-
tween Decatur and Trinity would be immedi
ately relaid with the new rail and fshbar con
nections. The iron is being put down almost
as fast as it is received. Other shipments vii
doubtless follow until the entire road is fur
nished wi new rails.

absorbed and grave, as though her heart
was beating with an inarticulate pr aver
BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH.
Too often, it is thought, the motive
of suicide is little more than the weird
and solemn tempting of the fall itself.
a lady came one day to Clifton from a
town on Lake Ontario, accompanied by
her mother and her child. She stood
on the Table Rock. listened to the
boom, admired the buffaloes and fed
the bears like other idlers on the spot,
and seemed as her child, to whom these
sights and sounds were new. as they
were looking at a shop window, she
turned toward the water, gazed at the
falling sheet an instant, slipped away
from her CON mpanion, ran to the waters
edge at Cedar place and sprang into the
food. a cry OF help was raised. Some
guides were near at hand with ropes
and other gear, and one of them, crap
pied safely by the waist, plunged after
her, and by daring effort caught her
as she rolled among the rocks, and car
ried her back to land unhurt.
FROM MISERY TO ETERNAL REST.
Another case of suicide attempted by
female under nervous irritation, was
less fortunate. A woman, living on the
SpOB, DSCan6 SIQlCG6O WIN q malaUy as
common and as fatal as consumption
fear of penury. That she had 10 good
reason for this fear her neighbors knew,
but it possessed her like a secret and
incurable disease.
"I can't bear il" she used to say,
and some day you will see me go over
the fall"
Her neighbors laughed, saying people
who talk of suicides are in for length of
life. But one day she leaped over the
rock at Cedar place. A brave young
fellow named Davis saw her slip in, out
wss too far away to catch and draw her
back. The lad was used to suicides, as
every one becomes by living at the falls.
He saw that she would pitch against the
ravine wall, some ten or twelve feet
under the rock on which he stood.
Peering over the bank, he saw a little
shelf of earth just broad enough for g
man to light on, and no more. He
| scrambled down a moment ere the wO-
man came rolling on, put out his hand
toward her, caught her shawl and tore
| it from her body as she fOated down,
and started in horror as the wooden rag
hung dangling in his grasp. The sui
eide had kept her promise, and escaped
from her imaginary poverty into eternal
| sleep.

THE MIRACLE.


LTbe following is the latest poem Of Hans Chris
ished in English.l
From pyramid in the deserts sand
A mummy was brought to Denmark's land
The bierOglyphic inscription told
Tt at the body eInbalued was three thousand year
old.
It was the corpse of mighty queen.
Examining it, they found between
Her closed fingers corn of wheat;
So well preserved was this little seed,
That. being sowD, it put forth its blade,
It's delicate stem Of a ight-green shades
The ear got filed with ripening corn,
Full-grOwn through sun-hine and light Of the morn
That wonderful power in so small
1t is lesson to each and all.
Three thousand years did not quench its germ
1t teaches our faith to be s,rong and firm,
When such a life is laid in corn,
When out Of that husk a new plant could be born
To ripen IN sunshine and dew from the sky,
Then, human soul, thou spark from on high,
Thou art immortal as thy great sire
Whose praise is sung by the algel-choir!
The h SIX, the body, is buried deep,
And friends viii go to the tomb and weep;
But thou shalt move on. On wings so free
For thine is the life Of eternity.
That wonderful power of 20 small seed
The miracle seen in that Of wFeat,
It puzzles the mind but still it is done
By the Author Of Life the Eternal One.

By sunlight craven.
The look that wrought the carte
Lies in my inmOst heart,
Its fttest haven,
Her beauty's far renOwn
Made the great sun look down
From heaven above her
And when he saw her best,
He gave this, a bequest,
To all who love her.
He stampt With armorous light
The lines Of black and white,
rounded cluster.
But could not paint the fair,
Silk-sOftness of her hair
Her eyes deep lUstre,
His strength was all too weak
To tint her changeful cheek,
SOIt ss the peaches;
Or give her lips rep Ose
The lOveliness which grows
With gentle speeches.
No, it is poor at best
But let it lie at rest:
The book shall win it,
And be the page as white
AS is my soul tonight,
While she lies in it.
