and that MIR. Lucas was still deYOtellY
attached 10 his idol. He never would
have separated from her but for the IN
reference OF some OF his relatives, and
the parting was almost death TO him.
He could find no happiness without her
and vt length he determined TO brave
the dlspleasure OF his relatives, and So
the usages of society at defiance, BY tax,
ing her once more 10 his bosom. he
carried out his design, and now tho pSr-
tres arc living together as man and vile
They had been married according 10 the
rites Of the Catholic Church, and that
church, it is well known, does not recog-
nize the validity OF a divorce. For Ger.
tain causes the church will permit man
and his wife TO separate, but neither can
marry again during the life OF the other.
In the present case a second marriage
ceremony was not necessary, so TAR as the
church was concerned, but TO satisfy the
civil law some sort OF an agreement must
be made. An agreement was according
" drawn up and certified By Rather
Filing. and yesterday Il was filed with
the Recorder OF Deeds. The document
is in the following form:
Be il remembered That on the II day
Of June, 1877, in the city Of st. Louis, IL
the State OF Missogsl, personally appeared
before the undersigned Chas. NJ. Filling,
p priest of the Roman Catholic Church,
John B G. Lucas, Of the city OF st.
Louis, and Mary Cummings Lucas, OF
said city, formerly Mary Cummings
Morton. and in my presence and before

with the other, that they would again
live together as husband and wife.

Some important cases have been con-

A RevOlutionizing Threat.

have heard the story as applied loose
ly, but as Jenkinson's father-in-law tells
it, it has more of point and pith than o
the other cases. Jenkinson was the man
who entered the complaint. He was a
young merchant, and had married the
daughter of an old merchant, and said
daughter was inclined to be headstrong
and independent, plainly giving her liege
lord to understand that she should be
her own mistress, and do as she pleased.
Jenkinson regarded this as an outrage,
and in the plentitude of his indignation
he betook himself to his wife's father,
and there entered complaint, deep and
bitter, against the fair recusant; and, un-
fortunately, in his blundering, he more
than half intimated that the girl had not
been brought up as she ought TO have
been. But the old mau betrayed no ill
feeling toward his son.in.law.
"Did the vixen say she would do as
she had mind to doQ"
"Yes, SIR"
"And she makes you generally uncom-
fortable2"
"She does indeed, SIR"
Goodness me! What ingratitudel !
And only last week gave her that beau.
tiful set of rubies."
II know it, sir"
"Jenkinson, paid twelve hundred
dollars for those stones and the setting"
~ should say they were cheap at that"
$50 they were, so the were. And
thought they would make her 80 happy,
and so good. But l have plan in my
mind. / shall put up with no more re-
ports of her shortcomings. She thinks
she will inherit fat piece of property
from her old father; but she may find
herself mistaken. / have given her the
rubies, but will give her nothing more
until know that she has mended; and
if hear anything more of her wilful-
ness-if l hear another world will
scratch her name from my will, and leave
her but a lesson on behavior. If she
troubles you any more, you can tell her
what say; and be sure mean it. 1t is
time she should allow her old father to
rest in peace"
A month later, the old merchant asked
his daughter how she was fourishiDg at
home.
30, grandly!" she cried. "You
wouldn't believe how good and kind
James is. He isn't cross auy more at all. i"
The old man nodded with satisfaction.
His threat had had its effect.

IL WE LIVE WE MUST Grow Old
Some people think that age is the worst
thing we have to dread-at least person
ally. Death may be an entrance into
JOY such as we have never known; but
whose blood does not curdle little at
the thought of old age0 And yet, if we
live we must grow old. We all know
it, but few realize it. No one can be-
lieve that his strength must fail, his hair
grow gray, his skin fall into wrinkles.
We see these things come to our grand,
pareDts--to our parents themselves; and
then we suffer. But what young per-
son can look in the mirror aud actually
fancy what his face will bel old ages
To think of being old is terrible TO
many persons; yet old people often seem
very happy. Perhaps calm we know
nothing of comes with age, or 1t may
be that we grow old so gradually the
moment Of realization never arrives
A After all, it is seldom that one gets to be
so old that he is not willing to be SILL

Comes down with dusky wing,
Its cool and darkcning shadows
A food Of mem'rics bring

Attwilight long ago,
When passing by the river
We watched its ebb and flow.
Hand in hand We fingered there,
Till DER the waters wide
The blue and misty shadows
Bespoke the cvcntide,
Then turning slowly homeward,
OurIast goodbye" was said,
Little dreaming that such hours
For us had ever fed.
Lonely now clasp my hands,
And gaze far over the tide,
And long 10 join my loved one
Upon the other side.
Imiss the touch Of fingers,

And miss the tender love-tones,
That spake to me of old.

500 bounty is paid to all soldiers,
honorably discharged, who enlisted be-
tween May and July %, 1861, for three

| August 6, 1861. No matter how long or
how short time they served, they are
entitled to the 800.
5000 bounty will be paid to soldiers
| Cor heirs) who enlisted before September,

charged by reason of wounds, rupture,
or any kind Of mechanical injury (not
discnse).
800 bounty is paid to the wife, chill
dren, father, or mother of n soldier who

line Of duty, was discharged for disease,
and died of the disease before July %,
1866.
$500 bounty IS paid to all recruits
0hree years mem in old regiments be-
tween September 80, 1868, and April l.,
1864.
$400 bounty is paid to all veterans (or
heirs) who were mustered out or dis
charged for wounds, rupture, or injury
mot disease).
A men who enlisted under general
order No. 10l, if recruits, were entitled
to $403; such soldiers as had rendered
nine months previous service in the army

Some men were entitled to $402 and
received $302, for the want of being
mustered as veterans, and such are now

bounty, who were discharged short of
their full term of service, for any kind

ais office, or circular from the war de-
partment of May 4, 1865, and failed to
get all the installments of bounty, or the

or accidental injuries, he is entitled to
receive full bounty for which he enlisted,
5000, $SO2 or $4O2, owing to the date of
his enlistment.
The bounty act of July %, 1865, hav-
ing been extended, there are many who
are yet entitled to bounty.

A READER in the country writes us as
follows "a mule in our village yester-
day afternoon.inadvertcntly kicked a can
of nitro yCerine. A barn one hundred
yards distant was badly wrecked, and the
mule appeared somewhat surprised, ,whirl-
ing around two or three times before re-
suming work at nibbling grass" We
don't believe it-that is, we do believe
the kicking and wrecked barn part, but
we don't believe that the mule was sur
prised. 1t is q libel on the mule. A
mule is surprised at nothing.-Norris-

lston's friends in Kent county.
A. Hooten Blackiston, the victim OF yes
terday's awful tragedy, was thirty-two
years Of age, and was upon the very there's
hold OF q prosperous and useful life. He
was a native OF Kent county, this State,
where his family still reside. Heremoved
TO this city about ten years ago, and en-.
tered upon the practice OF his profession,
and at time Of his death had an immense
volume OF lucrative business, He was an
indeiatigable worker, anda an able advocate.
He wag widely known in this city and
county and everywhere had hosts OF the
most ardent friends. He married three or
four years ago Miss E. s. Pearre, eldest
daughter OF Hon. George A. Pearre, of this
city, who Is left with an infant son to
mourn her irreparable loss. When the
sad tidings were broken to her yesterday
by her pastor, Rev. DR.. S. G. Thrall, she
tainted, and during the day suffered in
tense agony. Last evening she was more
calm and bore her dreadful loss with great
fortitude.
Thomas Cook Hughey is a native OF
Queen Anne's county, whence he came to
this city thirteen or fourteen years ago.
He has a wife and one child, having lost
daughter by death a year ago. His wife
and daughter went to the Jail shortly after
he was taken thither and spent the re-
mainder Of the day with him, no. other
visitors but his lawyers being admitted.
Mrs. Hughey is of course grief stricken at
the terrible occurrence. Mr.. Hughey is
suffering considerably from the blows re-
ceived by him yesterday, there being sew
eral cuts and bruises or his head and face,
but probably more from the position in
which he finds himself.
The homicide and everything connected
with II were discussed by everyone yester-
day, and the most profound sympathy for
the suffering friends Of both parties to the
heart.rending affair expressed on all sides.
Never, probably, was a community, as a
whole, more sorrow-stricken, and the
memory OF the shock felt by all on hear
ing the sad tidings will not soon be for
gotten.
