last week, clergyman who was advising
the audience not to patronize grocers,
butchers, BARRIERS, or the street cars on
Sunday, was suddenly choked off by
Brother Moody, who told him to confine
his remarks to the subject before him.
Brother Moody don't want the Sunday
question mixed up in bis revival.
THE public may be thankful for one
thing-that the clerical investigation OF
Mr.. Beecher is to be conducted secretly.
The conclusions reached by the COM
mittee and the reasons for acquitting or
condemning the accused viii be made
known, but the people will be spared the
noisome necessity of going over the
scandal ground again, inch by inch and
step by step. For this every decent
newspaper reader must be exceedingly
glad.
WASHINGTON correspondents intimate
that there will soon be important
changes in the Indian service. just
what they are is not specified, nor is it
stated whether there will be changes OF
policy as well as men but the recent
visit to the Capital of Gems. Sheridan
and Crook, and their private consulta-
ton with the President and Secretary
Chandler, which it is known was in ref
erence to Indian affairs, give rise to
rumors that the military are to have
more to do with Indian matters in the
future than they have had in the past.
THE announcement of the death of
Marshal Bazaine seems to be premature,
He was last in Madrid. A curious fact
brought out by the reported decease of
this once favored soldier is that Marshal
MacAIahon never believed the Marshal to
have been guilty of treason. Hence the
death sentence was committed to Danish
ment, and the escape of the prisoner but
little noticed by the government. Ger
tainly, there has been no effort to re-
capture him, nor demand upon any
power for his delivery into the hands of
the French President.

one of the fnestpistol shotsin the country.
It is related of him that one day, a few
Gears ago, as he was discussing with his

Clarke, the actor, the merits of various
noted shots, Clarke wagered that young
Hackett could not hita common playing
card three hundred feet distant. He &C
cepted the challenge, and offered further
to knock a cigar from his fathers mouth
with pistoI-ball at the same distance.
Both feats were successfully accom-
plished.
THE suicide of Morris S. Kimball, of
Fulton, N. Y, is dramatic and full of
significance He had been engineer on
the Oswego Canal for twenty seven
years, and, on salary of 81, 500 year,
supported his family in luxury and accu-
mulated large property. In his pockets
were found an empty razor case, copies
of the laws for the punishment of bribery
and bribe-taking. and schedule of his
savings, showing the amount of $130, 000
The country would be relieved if some
other prominent citizens = should be
moved by similar quickening of con-
science
A WASHINGTON letter-writer says Ben
Butler has built three houses within
few rods of the Capitol. The most prom
inent of the group is the house on the
corner Of New Jersey avenue and South
B street, bordering on the extended
grounds of the Capitol. It is of solid
Cape Ann granite, four stories high
above the basement, was planned by the
General himself, and is in all respects
the handsomest and most substantial
residence in the District. This house
has been rented to Senator Jones, the
Nevada millionaire, for $4,000 a year.
The others are of the same costly style.

door to Senator Jones'.
The cable dispatches inform us that
the Prince of. Wales was enthusiastically
received by his heterogeneous country
men at Bombay. Farther India, how
ever, does not at the present time APP
pear to be in such receptive condition
as regards her English rulers. The
British residents at Perak and in other
portions of the Malayan Peninsula are
threatened with expulsion by the ma
