The case of Eftie Braman against Louis Norracan,
reported in yesterdays GLOBE, is causing moro than
the passing notice usual with such cases. Norracan
is in prison for want of ball. and he is to be married
this month to a worthy young lady, the household
goods having been purchased. 1t appears that Efie
Braman, the complainant, lives with her mother at
liz Third street north, whose domice is made con-
spicuous by the legend "Dress-making - Norracan
became acquainted with her two or three years
ago, and represented to her that he was "drum-
mer" for Field, Letter Co., of Chicago and under
promise of marriage led the child astray. The par
tcular day sworn to was November 10th, 1877 when
Ellie was fifteen years old. On the third of June,
1873, a plain, palpable proof of mans infdel-
lty and woman's trust was given in the shape of
pig bouncing boy. The mother of Fife, finding
that Norracan was not drummer but an employee of
Monitor pillow works, ordered him to keep away from
the mouse. He, however, would at times come in to
dandle the boy with paternal fondness, and two
weeks ago ne and friend remained at the house all

not hush 1t up for $50 $500, that she intended to

seconded by the ministers of the Presbyterian Meth
odst, Baptist and Congregational churches, and. in
fact by the members Of those churches also, but no
have become manifest. At some of the meetinos M,
Pentecosts remarks would almost imply that he was
almost despairing of ultimate success. And yet the
singing especially the singing-has gone on daily
and nightly, almost hourly for the ministers in their
great faith believe the blessing will come, and the
longer it is delayed the greater the awakening will
be. But to an outsider it would appear that there
would be better chance of success if the churches on
Sunday would not close but go on the even tenor of
their way praying if they will for the success Of the
movement but leaving room for sinners to attend the
meeting by the saved keeping away instead of rush
ing in an hour before time, and taking up all the
available seats. The singing Of Stebbins seems to
attract more than Pentecosts preaching the latter
seeming to lack much of the fire and stirring energ,
usually characterizing reyivalists discourses.
