cursion to Monroe, and were returning
home. The night was bright moonlight

earthly reason save that of criminal neg
igence why the accident should have
occurred. OF those on board the Mamie
the following were drowned: Mrs. Fred
Martin, wife of the engineer, Miss Lizzie
Murphy, housekeeper of Father Blyen-
bergh, Miss Mary Hahn, a domestic of
the parochial school Of Trinity church.

| Old Isaac Saunders has Just been ar
raigned before the court on the charge
Of embezzling a mule from the church.
Ike had been assigned to circuit work
Ivy the conference, but had failed to
adhere to his letter of acceptance. In
fact, he refused TO preach after making
way with the mule, and the three
churches that alternately were to receive
arrested. After the examination of
severel witnesses colored lawyer for
the defense arose and said:
stDe Parson has de law all on his
side, because he 'ploys 4 lawyer and
de Church don't. Dat am a powerful
factor In his resemblance. An now
I AK dc ledge Of dis Court ter let

The Justice, also a coloretl man, pom
dered n long times, and at length
said:

under side haint 'ployed no lawyer.
And I'll state right heah dat some
powerful arguments will be needed to
'vict dis preacher, unless he can't
show why no 'bezzled de mule.'
| One of the church members arose
and told how Ike had disappointed the
church people by not coming, and
how, after coming, he had startled
them by failing to account for the
church property. '"t

arose and said:
