THE LENEHAN INQUEST.
VERDICT WHICH IMpLICATEs THE OFFICERS
IN HIS DEATH.

VERDICT WHICH IMPLICATEs THE OFFICERS
IN HIS DEATH.
A number OF witnesses from the Fourth ward as
scmbled in tho Coroner's office yesterday to testify
the Lenehan case. Among tho dcnzens OF the district
where the deceased met his death considerable
amount OF leeling been manifested In the matter,
but the evidence adduced at the inquest seemed
in some cases singularly inconsistent aud at
times positively contradictory. The officers WHO
have been mentioned as the essailants OF tho
deceased, and who, 1t Is alleged, were present
at the OF his death, support each other In the
statement that Lenean accde nally received some n-
jury while they were chasing HIM and another man
along the street, and from the shock due TO this they
allcge his death resulted one witness corroborated
this version ol the affair, and swore that Lcncnan
staggered the alley where he found, without
any panynR him, and tell there In an uncon-
sclous state while, the other hand, several wit
nesscs positively averrod to having seen him drag
ged into the alley AMI while lying there TO have been
clubbed by the three officers
VERDICT
The jury naturally found some difficulty in recon-
Cling these statements, but after coatine and duly
considering tncm, they finally returned the following
verdict
ave lind that Timothy Lenehan came to his death
the morning Of August 26 between three and iour
O'clock from natural causes, accelerated by excite
ment and the -treatment Of Ohcers Fincken and
Sharboro and Roundsman Sosson."

SOUR WORDS.

First-TheY indicate a sour origin.
They show the heart is in acid state.
The hearer Of such words cannot but
have his Own, and a not very compli-
mentary, opinion of the speaker. Second
They make the speaker himself more
sour. Words react upon those who utter
them. AS kind words beget kindness,
and increase the power of it in the soul,
so sour words increase the bad temper
Of him who uses them. They add fuel
to the Ere, and augment the heat. Third
Sour words dangerously tend to make
the hearer sour. They create'an atmos-
phere which he breathes. and the virus
is likely to penetrate his soul and make
him sour, too. Vinegar gives its OWL
character TO anything it can reach. So il
is not the fault Of the sour in heart and
speech that they do not spoil all th,
sweetness there is about them. Fourtl
Sour words are all but certain to Civ,
sourness TO the countenance. The fac,
Is a tell-tale Of the heart, and the heart
sourness, rising to the lips in bite
words, has wonderful power over all th,
features Look on the countenance a
its owDer il using sharp and bitter words
Do you see . smiling juno, or q scowl
ing November? Fitlh-SOur words ar
not soon forgotten. Sharp and piercinI
they enter, like iron. into the soul. A
with hooks Of steel. they hang on to tn
memory. All that you can recOllect Q
some peopls il tho sour words you hav
heard them use.-ExcAonge.

THE ONLY WAY.

An elderly lady, but a short time
resident of Western Villages became
bewildered and uncertain Of her way,
and asked young woman walking near
If she we're right. The person addressed
answered cOurteOusly that she too was
stranger, and the two walked little dis
lance in company. The old lady had
in early life taken refuge among in6del
authors, and after Gods Spirit showed
her their sOphistry, she felt that she
could never do enough to atone for her
error. Before parting from the stranger
she asked do you love the Saviour? ?"
The woman looked surprised, hesitated
q moment. and said 81 think my moth

thought out to her new prairie home and
acted upon it, and when, year later
she folded her hands to wait for the
last great trumpet. she died in the tri-
umph Of living faith. Two friends
had spent pleasant hour together. At
parting the visitor, young mother,
said: 1--WE may not stay in our present
home, for We want our little boy to have
the right kind Of surroundings. What
ever zoe may be, l want him to grow
into noble man" The hostess replied
in gentle but earnest tone: 1.-The only
way to insure his being brought up
right anywhere, Mrs. Campbell, is for
his parents to be genuine Christians. ="
Mrs. Campbell afterwards told me that
1.-THE only way" sounded in her ears all
the way home. She knew it was true.
She knew, too, that nothing but her OWE
indifference prevented her being Chris
tan mother. She had neither minister
nor meeting, but she had the Bible, anC

What is so rare as DAY in June !?
Then, if ever, come perfect days. l
believe some great poet has said the
same thing. But. bless you the birds

PERFECT FAITH.

John B. Cough related the following
pathetic episode in lecture at st. Louis
recently: l
A story was told of street boy in
London who had both legs broken by
dray passing over them. He was laid
in one Of the beds of hospital to die,
and another little creature Of the same
class was laid near by, picked up with
famine fever. The latter was allowed
TO lie down by the side of the little
crushed boy. He crept up to him and
said: ILt
Bobby, did you never hear about
Jesus ?"
"No, l never heard of him."
Bobby, l went TO mission school
once. and they told ne that Jesus would
take you to Heaven when you died, and
you'd never have hunger any more, no
more pain, ifyOu axed him."
IL couldn't ask such great big gen.
tleman as he is to do anything for me.
He wouldn't stop to speak to boy like
me-"
"But he'll do all that if you ask him"
"How can ak him if don't know
where he lives, and how could / get
there when both my legs are broke ?"
Bobby, they told me at mission
school as how Jesus passes by. Teacher
says as how he goes around. How do
you know but he might come around to
this hospital this very night? You'd
know him If you was to see him."
"But can't keep my eyes open. Ny
legs feel 50 awful bad. Doctor says III

Bobby, hold up your hand. and he'll
know what you want when He passes
by"
They got the hand up. 1t dropped

times he got up the little hand, only Il

RULES FOR FARMERS.


l. Be sure you know what branch of
farming you want to follow. Select that
which suits you best, and in which you
will be most deeply interested. Do not
be persuaded that this, that, or the
other. will necessarily rum your soil,
especially dairying, which if prop
erly conducted is simply species of
mixed husbandry.
2. Having once decided what you will
do, concentrate your forces and go at it.
8. You are supposed to be man of
brain and muscle. Ifyou do not possess
a fair degree of both you would do better
to let farming alone You are also
supposed to be married. If not. | ad-
wise you to wait till you are thirty-6ve
(unless you live in Connecticut), but
marry when you get ready. if you can.
an amiable woman, not deficient in
brain or muscle, who has sense enough
to know that bread and butter are not
products of the imagination. but of the
soil +; and who understands making these
articles in all their perfection. A woman
who can make excellent bread and butter,
although she may be familiar with
Shakespeare. Milton. Tennyson, Moore
or hundred other authors, will also
take an interest in your agricultural
papers and in the cultivation of plants,
fruits, flowers, etc., which render a
farmers home pleasant and attractive.
4. 1t is well to keep out of debt, but
you need not wait till you have earned
enough by "day's work" to pay wholly
for farm. Neither need you wait till
you are gray for some respected relative
to drop off and leave you a legacy. If
you have money enough to stock the
farm you intend buying and can make
fair payment down, and have a rea-
sonable period for paying the balance,
60 ahead. It is store debts. blacksmiths'
and shoemaker bills, and debts of this
class, you must beware of. Raise your
own provisions; that is what farm is
for. There are men in this neighbor-
hood who profess to be farmers, who
yearly buy their beef, pork, wheat, etc.,
of their neighbOrs. simply because they
are too careless to look after these i'm.

AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENTS.

The American Agriculturist recon-
mends the following style of experiment
to get at the true needs of any soil as to
fertilizers: lin an average field, lay off
a few long plots, and try on one plot a
single fertilizer, another on the next plot,
and so on, using various mixtures of
fertilizers on some plots. Across these
plots plant or SOW several leading crops,
and watch carefully the effects upon
each of different fertilizers. A single
trial of season will give great deal
of information; while repeated trials
will be of still greater value. Thus as
certaining what will pay best, we can,
in future. buy and use largely just that
fertilizing element, and only that one,
or only those which are needed. If
potash is the thing. we shall not have to
buy and pay for lot of other things, to
get what we want. The chemist can tell
us accurately what is in this or that
fertilizer. and whether we get what we
pay for, or intended to-" The Agricul-
turist claims that this would be much
more economical plan than to buy ferti.

In recent article, by Geo. E. War
ring. the following passage occurs:
"If American agriculture has an un-
satisfied need, it is surely the need for
more intelligence and more enterprising
interest on the part of its working men
and women. From one end of the land to
the other, its crying defect-recognized
by all-is that its best blood-or in
other words, its best brains and Its best
energy-is leaving it to seek other fields
of labor. The influences which lead
these best of farmers sons to other oc-
equations Is not so much the desire to
make more money or to find a less labor
iOus occupation, as it is the desire to
lead more satisfactory life-a life
where that part of US that has been de-
velOped by the better civilization fol
which in this century we have worked
SO hard and SO we'll, may find responsive
companionship and encouraging inter.
COURSE with others."
