CARE For THE AGED. DO the young
people ever think that they will be old
that they will soon feel that the grass
hopper is burden, and fear il in the
way Only a few short years ago, that
aged man and feeble woman were Young.
strong and full of life their loving
hearts were gushing with tenderness and
care for the little ones, who now stand in
their places, Do not jostle that aged
couple out of your pathway. but rather
lift them with tender care over the rough,
declining road. You may have forgot
ten how carefully they kept your tender
feet from stumbling, and with what care
they watched your advancing steps.
But they have not forgotten. and tho
time will come when you will be forci-
bly, reminded of it by the love you have
for your own little ones. Will they hand
you the same bitter cup to drink that
you pour out for that aged father and
stricken mother? Verify. with what
measure you mete, it shall be measured
to yon again" Think of the anxious
days and nights your mother has watched
by your sick bed Il remember her loving
care, her patience and long suffering
with fretfulness and then let the blush Of
shame dye your brow, that you should
be impatient or unkind to her, now that
she is old. Old folks are such trial
Yes, they know it and feel it, and SO
will you be just such trial to your
children in the days that will surely
come aye, and you will remember, too.

pyfng fsr His sister.

On Monday evening there appeared in the
telegraphic columni Of TEE HERALD
statement that boy named Shane had been
shot dead, in st. Louis, BY man named
Jilz, whom he had attacked With revolver
! for the seduction of his sister. Tho st..
Louis Rspu0lioas gives further particulars.
It says that Miss Shane, petite, symetrical {,
and pretty, applied to JilSiior euploy yment !,
in aHsWef to 1n Advertisement for e'leoy 70
do copying. Jilz became infatuated with
her, and lfnmised to. marry her - soon
rs he could get rid of his wife, and In this
May accomplished her ruin. On last Friday
night she was brought to premature con-
| hnement, and the terrible reality at once
flashed upon her brothers mind, boy; fair
and frail, of only seventeen years. He went
at once to the house of his sisters seducer,
armed with revolver, and called him up
out of bed. The night had worn away and
1T was early morning later five O'Clock
when he reached the place and rang the
bell. Whom the door was opened BY
niece of Jilz, young Shane pushed bis way
| into the hall and sent word to Jilz that he
must zee him. Jilz came down armed, and
evidently expecting tue trouble that was to
follow. He paused on the lowest step OF
the stairway and gave an insulting denial
to the hot charges Of the youth, who accused
him of aister's ruin. ag ,s-
Young Shane drew . revolver and fred
at Jilz, who was not more than three feet
away from him. Jils grappled the youth,
at the same time firing upon him. They
struggled together hercely, and Jilz fired
another shot, which appears to have set
tied the light, as young Shane tried to run
up the stairs. A third shot from Jilz's re-
volver stretched him on the stairs, and .
fourth bullet set at rest any doubt that
might have existed - to the possibility of
his recovery. Jilz had received q danger
ous shot wound from . small calibre bullet,
which had apparently penetrated tho left
lung. His youthful assailant was literally
riddled with bullets, all four shots having
taken effect. He had felt deeply his sisters
disgrace, and had long since declared that
the only course to pursue was to XIII her
betraycr. Jilz is desperately wounded, And
now admits as he believes himself to be on
his death bed that he did seduce the boys
sister. The reason Shane was only able to
fire one shot, was that JILL grasped the
hand in which he held his revolver. Great
sympathy is felt for the dead boy, who Ger
tainly acted rashly, but died in the per-
formance of deed prompted by love of bis
sisters honor, and family integrity. ~

WASHINGTON, April IA.
The flags over both the Senate and the
House are at half mast today, In memory
Of the late President Lincoln. The pro-
cession did not pass the Capitol till nearly
two O'Clock, and the ceremonies did not
commence till an hour after the appointed
time. one o'clock. There were hundreds
Of persons about the Capitol to see the pro-
cession past, while Thousands had preceded
1t to Lincoln Square.
There was an immense assembly at that
part Of the statue covered with canvass
which was the great object Of interest,
many being impatient for the exercises to
reach that point in the programme where
Professor Laughton was to pull the cords
which would cause the canvas to tall. After
the arrival of the procession, Professor
Laughton was selected by. the National
Monument Association TO preside. ''f
The exercises proceeded IN the following
order: Hail Columbia," by the Units
States Marine Band, Prof Schneider
Prayer by Rev. DR.. J. NJ. Brown, Bishop OF
A. NJ. E. Church Tho Hon j. Henry
Burch, Of Louisiana, was introduced, and
after few remarks, read the Proclamation
of Emancipation of April 10Th, 1859, freeing
slaves in the District of Columbia. Music

Hymn" followed by Jas. E. Yealman, of
st. Lonis, President of the Western Santa
~ Commission, who took the place of
DR.. Elliott, of St. Louis, who had been ex-
pected. He read q short history Of the
event and the monument. Prof. Laughton
then drawing the cords, the canvass dropped
iron the statue amidst the cheers of the
assemblage, the band playing " Hail to the
Chief"
The monument stands on q granite pc
destal ten feet high, Is Of bronze, and colos-
sal in size, the statue of Lincoln being
twelve feet high. The martyr President is
represented standing beside Monolith,
which is the face Of Washington, in bas re-
lief, and he holds in his left hand the Proc
lamation of Emancipation, while his right
hand is stretched over figure of slave to
whom his eyes are directed. This figure is
especially fne-the slave is almost pros
trate, but apparently about to rise. The
chains which connect the shackles on his
limbs. being sundersd and his face is light
ened up with an expression which indicates
wonder and joy. The physical develop
ment Of the slave, his muscles clearly de-
fined, gives evidence of hard labor. On the
base of the monument is the " Enancipa-
tien." So. 49,
The statue was designed and executed by
Thos. Ball, an American sculptor residing
at Florence, Italy. The original cost was
$17 900, and this sum, with the expense OF
