On yesterday a tramp entered the
hall of the residence of Judge VIM.
Kennon, where Mrs. K was engaged in
arranging the carpeting Upon being
asked what he desired he began closing
the door which would have shut her up
in the hall. He was requested not to do
so, but persisted when Mrs. K. took hold
of the door and tried to wrench it from
his grasp, whereupon he laid violent
hands upon her, wrenching her arm and
striking her. She succeeded, however,
in calling to Mr.. John Boroff and Mr.
Gephart who were on the opposite side
of the street, who came to her rescue
and by force elected the scamp from the
house. Fortunately Mrs. K. was not
seriously hurt, but was badly frightened.

lost her husband. in order to effer
consolation. and upon her earnest in.
quiries as to the reunion Of families IN
heaven, he strongly asserted his be-
lief ir that fact; and when she asked
with anxiety, whether any time must
elapse before friends would be able to
find each other in the next world, he
emphatically said: "No! they will be

Of it, but to me it is rather . very seri-

we all hope for futureliie and re-.
union Of spirits. Happily l have but
one wife. and If death should part us,
I hope our reunion will be with un-.
divided affection as twas here on earth
for the very query above is sufficient,
to cause me not to marry again it l

my wife. - 10 a sr "a.

no marriages nor giving in marriage"
Poor maidsns, how I sympathize with
you even the Bible gives you no con.
ISOLATION Of future happiness; even in
heaven you shall not enjoy the burning
kiss, or ardent embrace of lover or
husband you shall have no dear little
ones to fondle you, and call you the
dear sweet name of mother. I myself
cannot solve the proposed mooted ques-
ton, nor do 1 think can any divine or
spiritualist give you an answer to this
perplexing question. As for the bach.
elors, have no sympathy for. them ;
they could marry if they would. no
excuses about cost and responsibilities
true wife does anything to get along,
will even sacrifice wealth and life to
save true and worthy husband "

propounded from an idle curiosity, but
from a sincere desire to arrive at cor.
