over any chemical solution, in that it rem

THE GOSPEL CHURCH,

Meeting Of Disafected Church Members.
The call made by circular for q meeting
in the Board of Trade rooms last evening OF
those favorable to the establishment Of a
"Gospel Church." as the outgrowth OF
Delaware Avenue Baptist Church, was re-
sponded to by about one hundred and
twenty-five persons, at least seventy-five of
whom were ladies. The meeting was called
to order by Mr.. Frank A. Taylor, who was
made President, and Mr.. James H. Appleby
was made Secretary.
The object of the call was stated, and q
liberal discussion was then entered into con-
cerning the object of the meeting and the
wide publication 1t had been given In the
public prints. The discussion took wide
scope and brought out those favorable to,
and those opposed to the movement In
which there was considerable feeling
shown. It was then moved ard seconded
that committee be appointed to wait upon
the pastor, Rev. Isaac NJ. Haldcman;
explain to him the object of the meeting,
and ask his synpathies Herewith. A vote
was taken upon this in which there was
much oppositian shown, but was carried,
and the following committee appointed:
Aaron Sawan. James Hargis, James b. Ap.
pleby, E. F. James, E. 8. Pryor, Andrew
Marshal, Frank Ball and VIM. Stout. The
ladies all voted as unit upon this, while a
great many of the gentlemen opposed 1t.
The success of the movement depends alto
gsther upon Mr.. Haldeman's decision, and
that will be known sometime this week.

The Cincinnati "Commercial' of yester-

A bloody affray occurred in the little vii
lage Of Oxley, subdivision of LockIand, on
the Hamilton and Dayton Railway, about
ten miles north of this city, at 9 O'Clock
yesterday morning resulting in the death of
a boy, and serious if not fatal injury of an
other. 1t was the result of domestic
troubles, the particulars of which are as
Burrell Dudley, colored man
with his wife and several children.
reside at Oxley. It seems that Dudley
and his wife have not lived happily
together, but their home has often
but the scene of bitter quarrels. Two sons.
Alexander, aged fifteen years, and joseph.
aged seventeen, have on all occasions taken
the part of their mother, and saved her
from harm. Yesterday morning Dudley be-
came involved in a quarrel with his wife
about some trivial matter, and would pro-
badly have inflicted upon her some bodily
injury, when, as usual, the two boys inter-
fered. This exasperated him to such de-
gree that he seized shot gun, close at hand
and taking atm at Alexander, fired, the
charge of buckshot entering his abdomen,
producing a ghastly wound, from the eff.
feets of which he died soon after.
The infuriated father then turned on
Joseph and commenced beating him over
the head with the gun, breaking the stock
OF the weapon all to pieces, and finally left
him for dead.
The wife escaped by running to the house
of neig hbor living near by, and gave the
alerm. Dudley was soon after overpow-
cred and arrested. He was placed in charge
OF the Town Marshal, and locked up for
safe keeping until this morning, when IT
was the intention to bring him to the city
and lock him up in the county Jail.
Last night, however, the colored people
residing in that vicinity began to assemble
around the house in which Dudley was con-
fined, and fears were entertained that they
would make an attempt to lynch him. In
order to prevent sucn action, the Marshal
with the aid of some friends, succeeded in
escaping from the crowd with his prisoner,
and, procuring wagon, at one o'clock this
morning safely landed his prisoner in the
Hamilton county jail.

The Disposition Of Indian Ponies
BY Associated Press

By ASsOciated Press,
WASHINGTON, August S.-A telegram
has been received at the War Department
from Gen. Sheridan, asking the authority
OF the Secretary of War to sell Indian ponies
captured or surrendered al such price as we
can get for them, the funds so accumulated
to be held for the purchase of cattle for the
Indians, to be purchased at the proper time.
The embarrassment of taking care of
ponies makes It necessary to dispose of
them at once. General Sheridan says they
will not sell for much, but the main object
ID to get them away from the Indians. The
siner Of Indian Affairs for report from
him, and 1t 10 probable that the department
will concur with General Sheridan on the
subject.
