Tie recent murder IN her bed OF
Mrs. DR.. Hull, of New York, came
near bringing another tragedy in the
same family. The N. Y. detectives
made up their minds that the MUIR
dercr was no less n man than her hus-
band. They accordingly kept him
in his own house as Il Jail. The cir
cumstantial evidence seemed so clear
as to leave little doubt that banging
would be the old Doctors fate. lie
made narrow escape. Before the case
closed fatally against him, the police
were surprised Icy word coming from
Boston that the real murderer had
been arrested there. Chastlnc Cox a
young mulatto was found with the
murdered lady's watch and other ar
tclcs in his possession. lie finally
confessed the murder in full and rar-
rated all the circumstances. He did
not intend to murder Mrs. Hull, but
only to steal. lie had tied her down
on the bed and she s'ranglcd to death
from the gogging Of her mouth while
he was rilling her trunks. This in.
formation completely non-pulsed the
tcto stives but it saved pr. Hull. The
detectives had what they thought was
conclusive case against him. They
found that he and his wife were a
Jealous couple. They did not live
happily. They tracked tho Doctor to
Ter room that night by a particular
kind Of candle only used in the house
by Him. In addition to that man
had come to them who offered to ties
tify that DR.. Hull spoke to hIm three
different times about numbering his
wife and the easiest way Of doing it.
But Cox $ confession at once demol.
ished their whoo theory of hanging
the husband.
The way DR.. Hull was relieved and
Cox detected, makes singular sto-
~. Cox is described as young man
Of pleasing face and manners. Mrs.
Hull was his bcncfactor. lie had
been her iavorlte servant. She al
lowed him to 80 in and out the front

This made him the object Of their en-
Wy. lie had served three years in
the war as soldier. His employers

Moreover he was Of very devout spir-

houses Of worship. When arrested
he was attending service in a Bos,
ton church and listening atten,ively
to . sermon on the subject Of endless

Cox was no worse on the whole than
the average man. When the holy
man Of old said "tho heart is deceitiul
above all things and desperately
wiekcd,' he said it not only of one
but all of us. The uncheckablo be-
ginning Of evil may finally result in

THE LONG AGO.
ny BAYARD Y. TAYLOR.

A wonderful stream Is the river Time,
As IL runs through the realms OF tears,
with iautless rhythm aud musical rhyme
And broader sweep and IA surge sublime,
As 1t blends In the ocean OF years
How the winters are drifting like fakes Of
snow
And tho summers like birds between,
Aud the years In the sheai, how they come and
they 20
ON the rivers breast with It's ebb and flow,
As 1t glides In the shadow and sheen.
There's q magical isle up the river Time,
Where the soitest OF airs are playing,
There's u clOudless sky and tropical C line,
And song rs sweet rs Nesper chime
And the Junes with the roses are stTaying
And tho name Of this isle Is the Long Ago,
And we bury our treasures there;
There are hrows OF beauty and bosoms OF
snow,
There are heaps of dust oh! We loved them
There are trinkets and tresses Of hair
There are fragments OF songs that nobody
sings,
There are parts Of an infants prayer
There's a lutte unsw0pt and harp without
strings,
lneTc are broken vows ana pieces VI rings,
And the garments our loved useo to wear.
There are hands that are waved when tho fairy
shore
BY the ftful mirage is lifted na'r,
And we sometimes hear through the turbulent
roar
Sweet voices We heard In tht days gone before,
When tie wind down the riyes was fair.
Oh remembered for aye be the blessed isle,
All the day OF our liie until night;
And when evening giows with It's beautiful
smile,
And our eyes are closing in stun bers awhile,
May the greenwood OF soul be In sight.

The Peach Crop.

Fears are entertained in some sec
tons of the Peninsula that the recent
cold weather has blasted the peach buds
to large extent.
The Milford Ncms says, this is not
true of that section as the cold was new
err more than four degrees below zero,
when il requires ten below to kill the
buds. If the temperature was as
low as ten below in any part, then the
crop is likely to be destroyed.

Conference Appointments Gossip.

Conference Appointments Gossip.
We give the following clipped from
the Inder at Seaford to show how the
Wilmington NJ. L. Conference appoint
ments look from that standpoint:
"rhs changes that will take place in
the Wilmington Conference to be held
in New Castle in March, are causing a
good bit of speculation and the papers
are toll of rumors. Drs. Matlack and
Caldwell are spoken of in connection
with the presiding -ldership of the
Wilmington District. Revs. J. B. Mann,
V. Smith, r. S. Williams and II. Col
clazer are mentioned for Salisbury Dis
trict. 1t is said that the Port Deposit
people have asked for Rev. T. Il. Mar
,indalc of Middletowu, while some of
the papers say that Rev. D. c. Ridgway
of Elkton has been asked for at Port
Deposit. J. D. Rigg is booked for Mid
dletown, and rumSrs are abroad that
Rev. Geo. X. Bristor will 60 to New Or.
leans. Rev. T. n. Haines of Smyrna,
has been talked of for Port Penn, and
Rev. c. NJ. Pegg for Elkton. OF course
these appointments are but conjectures
as no one knows until Conference for a
certainty, what the Bishop and his
Council will do"
The Mder may be right in some of its
appointments, but it is extremely
doubtful if Rev. Mr.. Haines goes to
Port Penn, or Rev. Mr.. Mann leaves
Wilmington.
