SHOOTING AN EAGLE.-As Mr.. John F
Carpenter, station agent at Ashton, Rhod'
Island, was out duck hunting near there one
forenoon between IL and II o'clock, he saw
very large bird flying over the tree tops,
he judged about two hundred yards high.
Without thinking of hitting it at that height,
he drew bead on it and pulled the trigger.
To his surprise the bird dropped. He ran to
pick it up, and found it lying on its back
alive, and with bill and talons open, as il
ready for Il fight. In his excitement, Mr.,
Carpenter did not stop to consider the con-
sequences, but attempted to take it by the
feet, when the bird fastened it's claws into
his hands, and he was imprisoned bv a
wounded black American eagle. There was
a severe tlssel for a few moments, but the
man finally conquered, though his hands
were very badly scratched in the fight, and
the eagle was taken to the station and Sc
cured. Examination disclosed the fact that
his wings were injured, but it is thought they
are not broken and that his majesty will live.
II he does live, it is Mr.. Carpenters inten
ton to present it to Roger Williams Park,
OF Providence, as a centennial Black Amer

REPUBLICAN.


SEQUEL TO A ROMANTIC STORY New
York was excited few years ago by the
marriage of the Rev. Fl. S. Lake. Catholic
priest, with Miss Sarah Genevra Chafa. The
sequel to the romantic story has just been
given to the public. Father Lake was the
son of wealthy New York merchant. file
embraced the tenets of the Catholic faith at
an early day. and was ordained priest.
His sacerdotal career was marked by an I'M
disciplined fervor, in which his zeal con-
stantly outran his dscl elton. His brilliant
oratory caused him to be placed prominently
in the leading churches of New York; but he
fell into disgrace, owing to several sermons
which were very rash and Incorporate in
tone, and he was finally placed in an obscure
charge. He here became acquainted with
Miss Chafa, who wasa kindred spirit of high
but ill-regulated aspirations. They were
thrown very much together and were final Y
married. Mr. Lake, though attached to hi 3
wife and unsettled IN his beliefs, it W oul,.
seem was never quite reconciled to his aball-
donment of his prestly vows. After living
in seclusion in New York un6er an assumed
name for some time, their identity being dis
covered, the pressure of Catholic sentiment,
it is alleged, Inconvenience them so far as
to induce the welded pair to leave New York
fol California. Here they lived a few years,
until finally he fell into consumption and
died last December, leaving his wife widow
in q strange land.

Of the Government dwelt upon.
| Col. Penn was followed by Mr.. l.. l.. Lew
is in speech Of some length, in which the
charges Of corruption against the Republican
party were refuted, and the record adduced
which had been furnished to the Senate in
obedience to resolution of a Democratic
| Senator, to demonstrate the falsity of such
| charges, and to show that the defalcations OF
Democratic officials under Democratic ad
ministrations were relatively far greater than
! the defalcations of Republican officials I'M
! der Gen. Grant administration.
| Mr.. Lewis was followed by Senator With
ers in speech of an hours length, in which
tho Senator relieved himself of a number of
stale anecdotes, and regretted that he had
not the time to show to the people that the
Republican party was not only the most cor
rupt party that ever existed, but was, be-
sides, responsible for the war.
! The discussion wss concluded by Mr.. L..
L. Lewis in speech of IL minutes, who took
occasion to allude to the robbery Of the pub
! lie money Of the people by Mayo and Cole
man.
The indications are favorable of this coun-
| ty giving largely increased vote for the
Republican ticket in November.
