Two KINDs.-There are two kinds of
girls One is the kind that appears best
abroad-the girls that are good for parties,
rides, visits, balls, etc., whose chief delight
is in all such things. The other is the kind
that appear best at home-the girls that are
useful and cheerful in the dining room, the
sick room, and all precincts of home. They
differ widely in character One is frequent
lya torment at home the other is blessing.
One is a moth, consuming everything about
her; the other is sunbeam, inspiring life
and gladness all along the pathway. Now
1t does not necessarily follow that there
shall be two classes of girls. The right
modification would modify them both lit
tie, and unite their characters in one.

TRAGEDY IN SCRANTON.
A Jealous Lover Slabs His
Rival with "a Knife--FIigiaf
and Capture of the Muir
S1Nyar.

SCRANTON, Pa, July IA most
shocking murder was committed in
this city last night, the victim being
q young man named Frank Doud,
who was stabbed with butcher
knife by Walter Whitaker. Doud
and Whitaker, although boon COM
panions, had been rival sultors for
the hand OF a young woman named
Mcnamara, to whom the murderer
was especially attached. In the af-
ternoon they met and INDUCED in
war OF words, during which the young
lady's name was freely mentioned.
Doud declared that he would take
her away from all rivals, and this SO
incensed Whitaker that he became
desperate, and going to his home,
armed himself with a butcher knife,
when he concealed in his boot, swear
ing that he would take the life Of
Frank Doud as soon as he met him.
They met in Washburne street in
the evening, when Whitaker plung-
ed the fatal knife into his victim and
then ran off, leaving Doud lying on
the road with his intestines protrud-
ing. He died about midnight. The
assassin fled to the woods, and was
closely pursued by the people of
Boone Hill, who turned out and gave
chase, searching every house and
nook in the neighborhood without
avail, until this morning, when he
was captured at Newton Centre, S
miles distant, and brought back to
the city. He was committed for tri-
al at the next term of court on the
charge of killing Francis Doud.

"A NEW DOCTRINE.

A new doctrine concerning the
marriage relation has been PROFOUND
ed by an Indiana judge, which is
considered rather wholesome as COM
ing from Indiana, which has been
noted for the looseness OF its faith
and practice in regard to divorce A
couple in that State drew up a mar
riage contract, and thereupon lived
together. According to the terms OF
the partnership it was to last until
love ceased to be mutual. Unaware
Of their business arrangements, the
neighbors of this couple had them
arrested for violation OF the criminal
law. The judge, in rendering his de-
cision, held that the contract of CO.
partnership was legal marriage,
but that the divorce clause was in
operative, because the law estab-
fishes the duration and stability of
the marriage tie.

Extensive.

These Venuses are wonderfully expen-
sive, no matter where you find them. L
in thedaily walks of life, in the tender
flesh and blood that has to be decorated
with laces, satins, fine lipens, silk stock
ings, gold and precious stones and false
hair, man has to come down with the
egelt;" il the pure pariau marble, that
under the chisel of modern Angelo is
brought forth almost breathing and pal
pitating. and yet harmless, man has to
work all his wits to pay for one; and If
in the starry regions away up yonder, a
Venus determine to make transit, the
safe doors must be fung open and the
money bags must be tun.bled out and
depleted SO that she may be safely seen
through her Journey Perhaps if she
had chosen the mickey way instead of
this eccentric trip across the sky, she
might have tripped along like any other
dairymaid, without being so expensive.
But then it is the nature of Venuses to
be expensive, and all we poor STAR
gazers can dois TO bend low the head,
after the thing is all over, and because
we can't help ourselves. say, Thy viii,
not mine, oh Venus, be DONE" But
they never will be done.

BEECEEER.
The Plymouth Church Will
Stand by Him to the End.

New York, July 8.The chair
man of the Plymouth Church meet
ing last night, in speech previous
to the adoption of the resolution in
creasing Beecher's salary for the CO.
ming year to 100000, said -" The
necessary expenses of the trial have
been very large; it has extended over
6 months, counsel have been employ
ed day and night, witnesses brought
from all parts of the country land the
expenses are much greater than our
pastor is able to pay, either now OF
some time to come. 1t is our duty
to help him and pay these expenses
for him he has not intimated, nor
do think he expects, we shall pay
this money, but is our duty to do it.
and we mean to do it. [Applause.l
While it is neither legal or proper
for us to supply him with aid direct
ly for this purpose, we can reach it
by voting him salary which will in
clude it. Let us come to this sub
ject in the name of old Plymouth,
and show by our acts as well as our
words, our respect, our love, our adj
miration, and our appreciation of
our Pastor, and show, too, that we
will stand by him." [Applause.1
BEEcHER BEFORE THE GRAND
JURY.
The Tribune says: Immediately
on the conclusion of the examination
of Price and Loader yesterday,
Beecher accompanied the district at
torney to the court house in Brook
lyn, and was uShered into the grand
jury room, where he gave his testi-
mony to the untruth of the affidavits
made by Price and Loader. The
papers showing the evidence taken
before Jnstice Riley were also sub
mitted, and an indictment was or
dered against both alleged periurers.
Price, although in Kings county,
will possibly escape the penalty of his
offense, as he made his confession
and gave his evidence against Loader
To the district attorney of New Y ork
on condition that he was accepted as
states evidence. A n0lie pT0Sequi
will possibly be entered in conse-
quence of this agreement. 1t is not
known positively whether evidence
was given against Others, who were
alleged to have been concerned in
this conspiracy to defanle Mr.. Beech
er and Mrs. Tilton.''
MRS. Triton BEFORE TILE GRAND
JURY.
Mrs. Tiltm this morning went be-
fore TIE grand jury III Brooklyn,
where it is stated that she gave tes-
timony denying the accusations made
in the affidavits Of John j. Price and
Joseph Loader.

1t was intended to be prophetic of
the probable future Of the road.
In writing thereof ] made some
predictions that, np doubt, seemed
reckless then. But it makes me
smile now, to think how far be-

and his associates have carried
| their already familiar actualities of
railroad progress towdrd the set
ting sun, after which the locomo-
tive so boldly chase5 wNh restless

In preparing myself to write the
history of the road, / had the val
liable aid of the late Philip Il.

dent of the road. / wildly recall
with what interest the venerable
Quaker ex-president emphasized
the fact that the first car exper-
imented with was propelled by the

my magazine article. Now, what
does the reader think, the compos-
itor Tor the proof-reader as the case
may have been made of it? will
tell you, with chagrin and sense
of the relentless which / am sorry
to feel toward any worker in the
grand "art preServative of arts.'
BY the cool substitution of an
or" for my IS" he killed
off my history and turned my
'sail-car' into a 'rail-car' (D--.
This was done, no doubt, in SUI
premest kindness by the compost
tor or proof-reader, whoever he
was, who took care of what he sup
posed to be a mere slip of the pen.

himself, "Of course, the writer of
this meant to say RAIL carr and
into type went 'rail-car,, while my
'sail-car' vanished. But, as CALI

FINE STOCK.

During our recent trip West, we
spent a day with Mr.. A. Perrell, at
his fine stock farm in Franklin coun-
ty, Ohio, ten miles out from Column
bus, and were shown some of the
best bred stock in the West. Mr.
Perrell devotes much time and care
to the herding of apure bloods, " and
has now on his farm some of the fin
est bred Durhams we have ever seen.
His stock of pure blood Berkshire
hogs cannot be beat. He has now
for sale, at reasonable prices, a num-
Der Of fine, pure blood Durham cows
and two-year-old heifers. His stock is
equal, in blood, to any of those which
are selling at fancy prices through
out the country, but he will dispose
of hisat prices which win bring them
within the reach Of every thrifty far
mer. Persons in this sectionof coun-
try who may desire to improve their
stock, can purchase of Mr.. Perrell
the purest bloods at prices which will
pay them to go into stock raising, =
Any information in regard to the
matter can be had by addressing a !,

THE OHIO DEMOCRACY.

The platform just put forth by the
Democracy of Ohio, at their late
State Convention, has .excited dis
cussion all over the country. The
platform declares in favor of infia-
tion-more greenbacks-and is as
sailed with considerable acrimony by
Democratic journals of the East
We do not entirely agree with the
financial plank of the Ohio platform,
and it evidently would not carry be-
fore the people in any State East of
the .Alleghanies; but we are convinc-
ed that it is popular with the masses
of Ohio, and if the Democracy are
defeated in that State this Fall, it
will not be because of the unpopular
ity Of their financial views. On the
contrary, we are of opinion that this
plank in their platform will win de-
cidedly more votes than it loses
among the people of that State
Whether mistaken or not in the
soundness of their views, there is no
doubt that they meet the wishes of
the masses of the people, of not only
Ohio, but of the great Northwest
Still it is an ugly question to handle,
and may give serious trouble in a
National campaign.

Doonasslay Book .

Colonel Forney writes of Doomsday
Book, the work complied by order of
William the Conqueror, King OF Eng
land, in the seventeenth century, to con-
tain record Of the wealthy families,
with their lands and tenements: The
utmost vigilance has been exercised dur
ing succeeding centuries to keep this
book fromharm. In making searches
or transcripts you are not allowed to
touch the text, and it has never felt the
heat, because in nearly all these old sane
tuaries, even in that vast treasure house,
the British museum, in order to secure
perfect protection against any sudden
confagration there is not only no fire by
which to warm in the Winter, but the
establishment is closed at four o'clock at
that season, remaining open later, Of
course, as the days lengthen. The
Doomsday Book, up to 1896, was FREE
quently carried, ike other records, to
distant districts, but after that date it
was kept with the Kings seal at West
minister, in charge OF the officers of ex-
chaquer, and is now lodged in the office
Of the Kings remembrances in the ex-
chequer. In this wonderful collection
you find whole countries with the names
Of the owners of the real estate, forming
not only monument of patient indus
try and care, bat an astonishing proof OF
the sagacity of the early kings of Eng
land in order to secure proofs of the
property and titles of their subjects.
