Disturbance at Churchs

A fracas occurred at Mt Zion, Omitted
Brethren) three miles west of Marysville
Wednesday evening of last week, which
is related to US as follows A young man
named Frank Davis. residing short dis
tance northwest of Milford, went to the
church at the time stated, where pro-
tracted meeting was being held. He was
considerably intoxicated, and began
making free with some of the ladies.
John Barnes demonstrated with him
upon his conduct, when he began threat
ening Barnes, swearing that he would
kill him. He thereupon fred several
shots, one of which grazed Lemuel Reed.
After making some further violent DEM
onstrations he left in his sleigh. He
started north and was absent about ten
minutes, when he returned and fired an
other shot from his pistol this time graz
ing the head of Chas. Bowersmith. At
this time at least fifty persons had gath
ed that he should be disarmed, which
was accordingly done. The crowd then
started towards home, the latter cursing
ard yelling as far as he could be heard
The same evening Thaddeus Wood and
G. Bowersmith came to town and had
warrant issued for the arrest of Davis:
This was placed in the hands of Marshal
Bonnett, who proceeded to the offenders 8
home and brought him to town. He
was taken before Esq Garrard, where he
waved examination and was put under
bonds for his appearance at the present
term of court. The witnesses were re-
tanned to appear before the grand jury
now in session.
All this was eau Ell by whisky, yet
thousands of persons will continue to use
the vile stuff, regardless of consequences.
Examples seem to have lost their force.

An Old Shaver.

An English physician relates an anec-
dote of one of his patients which is not
only amusing, but expressive of that par
ticular type of man, who, as rule, does
not practice what he preaches:-A pa
tient of mine a middle-aged clergyman,
was suffering from some slight symptom
of gout recommended glass of hot
whisky and water every day, in prefer
ence to physics of any kind; but my rev.
erend friend, with upturned eyes, abso-
lutely refused to accept my prescription,
saying,
mo, no, Doctor, have all my life
preached against alcohol in any form. If
that is the only remedy must continue
to suffer Besides" said he, "if 1 rang
for hot water my servants would guess
its purpose"
Said 1, "you shave; ring the bell for
shaving water, mix your glass of medi-
cinal whisky, and who will be the wiser
but yourself"
The parson at last submitted, and we
warmly shook hands and parted. In a
few weeks time my carriage passing the
clergyman's door, reminded me of my
clerical friend. l touched the bell, and
the thin, careworn face of a once robust
housekeper answered me.
"Well, said ], "how is your masterY'
"Stark starin' mad, sir, mad as he can
be-"
Mad? how, what how mad?'
"Lor, sir, mad as mad can bel Why,
he shaves himself about twenty times
every day" was the innocent reply.

Drink and Crime.

The United States. with her 100000
people according to Internal Revenue re-
ports for 1872, spends annually $735, ,74O,
048 for liquors, 800, 100000 more than all
animals slaughtered, home manufactures,
forest production, market. garden and
orchard products; as much as is spent
for all the people, and twice as much as
is spent for the clothing of all the men,
women and children.
And this amount is constantly increas-
ing. In 1871 it was 60.000,000 more than
the previous year. In 1S72it was 30, ,OO0,-
900 more. In twelve years the people
spent nearly 100000 for liquor.
nearly two thirds of the assessed value OF
the whole real estate Of the country.
2.300, 100000 acres; more than all the
value of the product of agricultural and
our mechanical and manufacturing in
dustries. Every ten years we have a
drink bill equal to the cost of our civil
war.

Country Negro Versus Town Negro.

An eternal warfare, says the Atlanta
Constitution, seems to rage between the
country negro and the town darkey.
This was illustrated at the passenger de.
pot yesterday. A colored youth from
Pike county approached town negro.
and the following conversation ersued
"Whar bouts is de ticket offs ?'
Right dar 70 yo eyes,"
"Fo' whose eyes? ?"
"Yone"
us you de ticket offs? p
"Look yer, niger, don't you gimme
none yo' slack"
I'm mighty slack man, ole man,
when I gifts stirred up"
AN you'll git sti red up eff you stan
roun' yer foolin' longer me-"
"Dat's de kinder ex' else wat I'm q
pinin' fer"
And with that they clinched and had a
right lively tussel. They were separated,
however, before policeman came along.
and the Pike county darkey found the
ticket office. The town negro, it may be
well to mention, was badly used up.

A Lady in the Car.

Writing while on the railroad, Mr..
Burdette, of the Burlington Hawkeye,
says: A woman with three bird cages
and little girl has just got on the train.
She arranges the three bird cages on a
seat, and then she and the little girl
stend up in the aisle, and she glares
around upon the ungallant men who re-
lain glued to their seats and look dream
lily out of the window. bend my face
down to the tablet and write furiously
for feel her eyes fastened upon me-
Some how or other, am always the vic
tim in cases of this delicate nature. Just
as expected. She speaks, fastening her
commanding gaze upon me.
"SIr, would it be asking too much If l
begged you to let myself and my little
girl have that seat? A gentleman can
always find seat 80 much more easily
than lady.
And she smiled Not the charmingest
kind of smile. 1t was too triumphant
to be very pleasing. Ofcourse surrend-
/ could find another seat without any
trouble"
She thanked me, and 1 crawled out OF
my comfortable seat and gathered up my
overcoat, my manuscript, my shawl sti ap
package, my valise, and my overshoes,
and she and the little girl went into the
vacant premises as soon as the writ Of
ejectment had been served, and they
looked happy and comfortable.
Then / stepped across the aisle; took
up those bird cages and set them along
on top of the coal box, and sat down on
the seat thus vacated. I apologetically
remarked to the woman, who was gazing
at me with an expression that BODIED
trouble, that ''it was much warmer for
the canaries up by the stove" She didn't
say anything, but she gave me look
that. made it much warmer for me for
about five minutes than the stove can
make it for the canaries. I don't believe
she likes me, and l am uncomfortably
confident that she disapproves of my
conduct.

The Late Rev. DR.. Beadle.

Rev. Elias R. Beadle, u. D., of Philadelphia,
was a valued and beloved friend of ours, whose
death we mourned in common with the Church
at large. We find in the Presbyterian the fol-
lowing filia1 tribute, and we crafty our own
feelings and many readers by repeating the
lines in the New York Observer. Just before
DR.. Beadle died, he suffered great bodily pain,
and gave expression to the words. so Lord

gested the lines

And pity show;
