A Mum " Sociablc.

It was announced that q" mum "
sociabIe would be held last evening in
the lecture room Of the Park avenue
Methodist church, and Times reporter
was sent TO see what in the dickens it
was, strong suspicion being entertained
that it might be q sort Of Mumm's cabi-
net meeting, and that, psradoxically as
it sounds, there might be moistening OF
palates with "extra dry" These sus-
pic rs were wholly incorrect. There WAS
nothing TO drink. Champagne Charlie
and the Widow Clicquot were absent.
The peals of laughter that greeted the
reporter as soon ar he got within block
or two of the church assured him that
90 mum" sOciable was one at which no
body made a noise. The sociable was
conducted until 9 O'Clock on the ordinary
plan. There was conversation unre-
strained, laughter al H5hDol, and some
good music. At o'clock " B" was
" cheesed, !" and nobody was allowed TO
speak, under penalty Of paying a fine,
which fine went into the treasury of the
ladies of the church. There was some
very lively pantomime, some ineligible
and some bewildering. Persons who
were familiar with the deaf-mute alpha
bet were the envy Of the others. Some
of the girls, who practice sign language
daily at school, chatted away on their
fingers with much eloquence and ele-
gance. A court was provided for tho
trial of offenders. The judge and the
LAWYERS and witnesses were allowed 10
talk, and great deal Of merriment was
caused by tine travesty on judicial pro-
ceedings, which was well carried out.
The court was organized to convict, and
to all appearances the "mum sociable
proved a good financial measure. AT
9 80 O'Clock the ban was removed from
and after some more soci'
able-of the ordinary variety, DrMcChes-
new dismissed his parishioners, who went
home feeling that they never had 20
much fun in their lives as they did at
the "mum" sociable.-Chioago Times.

a Terrible Letter.

a great deal Of discussion has arisen
since Mrs. Stuart committed suicide a. 10
the nature of four letters left by her and
written just before she took poison. The
1oort str-nuoua vt,vrJe sss.vo ases,s ,ss.-.--i.. b.
by the friends Of the deceased 10 suppress
these epistles, and Coroner Woltman has
refused to make them public. 1t has
been learned, however, that three Of these
letters were TO relatives, and merely
stated that she had determined 20 live
no longer, bade them farewell, and asked
their pardon for her determination. The.
fourth letter was addressed TO her hus-
band. Il was couched in mild and afiec-
tionate language, but was absolutely
terrible in its contents. 1t called the
attention of Mr.. Stuart to their wedding
six months ago. ltreferred 10 the homes
they had left 70 90 through the world t.
gether. It reminded him Of the blessings,
happiness, and prospects they had started
out with, and recalled the good reasons
the bride had to look forward to the future
with the most sanguine expectations. It
smoke of their Yows-hers 10 love, honor
and obey him, and his-to love, cherish
and support her. 1t said that if ever
woman went honestly and lovingly 10
husband, she went 80 10 him, and If ever
a woman had been true and afectionatc
wife, she had been one. 1t then, in pain
full language, showed how the change
had come over her dream, and how she
had seen the rich web Of her fancy grad
ually drop from her full and glowing
ideal until it left the mere skeleton OF her
hopes, an unbearable, ghastly reminder
of what they had been and to what they
We reduced. Itpicturedin thelanguage
of Youthful despair the gradual sinking
of her husband into the power Of the
vice Of drink. until he became absolutely
lost TO himself and to her, and became
cold, selfish, repellant, cruel, and finally
intolerable. Ard then it said all this
being 80, absolutely so, unchangeably 10,
she bad no wish to live any longer-her
every hope was gone, and she would fol-
low them. She said she could not help
it-sbe asked his pardon for her deter
mination-told him that she still loved
him--bade him farewell, and then took
her life.- N. Y. Times.

dear to my heart and l shall most
earnestly strive for their attainment.
The cordial cooperation of all classes, of
all sections of the country and of both
races is required for this purpose, and

otherwise, we may safely hope to hand
down our free institutions of government
unimpaired to the generations that will
succeed us.
