The Bavarian was arrested, tried,
condemned and hung. The girl, BY
turning states evidence, saved her life.
ltwas not, it was discovered, the first
serious crime Of the murderer. He had
fled from Bavaria to avoid arrest for q
homicide committed there. He had

Mordaunts being present. Her husband
is now one Of the leading members Of

PRESIDENT ARTHUR.s FAT1TEns

rial headed President Arthur" you al
lude to his marriage to the daughter of
Capt. Herndon, whom You erroneously
state went down at sea ON the steamer
San Francisco. Permit me to correct
| this mistake and to state briefly the
particulars Of the death of this gallant
sailor. 1t was the theme of song and
poetry at the time it happened, as eA-
hibiting the highest type Of manhood.
but twenty-five years has nearly thrown
the veil Of oblivion over the touching
scene of his death.
Although captain in the United
States Navy, Herndon was permittedto
take service in the line ofsteamers then
running from New York to Panama.
lie left New York in command Of the,
Central America, crowded with passen-
gers. Off the coast she was wrecked.
Capt. Herndon knew she would sink.
With a coolness perfectly characteristic
of the man, he made arrangements to
save all his passengers and crew. He
found place for each aud every ono
bnt himself, for the boats, loaded down,
threatened to sink. Handing his watch
to New York friend entering the
boats, he asked him him to deliver it to
his wife, and the boats were pushed off.
Dressing himself in his naval uni
form, with swords around him, he as
cended to the highest part Of the vessel
and took position. Thus dressed, under
the flag OF his country, the last thing
the fleeting passengers saw was Hern-
don. the flag and the ship all going down
together into the quiet deep. Thus per-
ished Levitt Herndon. Ought this re-
cord, like the heroic sailor, be lost, or

Says the Austin (Texas) Statesman
At Dallasa ncely-dressed andvery hand
some young man, on his way home the
other night, after calling on young
lady, was met in a dark place by two
fellows, who leveled pistols at him, and
told him to hold up his hands and be
searched. He told them they had struck
the wrong man, for he hadn't a cent
about him. They went through him,
and found nothing but key. They
told him they would let him SO, but if
they caught him moneyless again they
would kill him on the spot, and told him
that if he would stop visiting the girls,
and do more work, he would have more
money.

Religion by Layman-TheolOgical The.
Ocracy Attacked.

There is no crime so common and
yet so damnable as religious hypoc-
risy-using the livery of the Lord to
serve the Devil in. 1t has been the
great initiating agent against the
solid success of the church of God.
Men high in the church use their pro-
fession and position to accomplish
selfish and evil purposes. Men wear
Pharisaical smile to conceal hypo-
critical heart. This moro-social crime
pervades all classes and conditions of
people, from the pulpit itself to the
lowest grade of immortality. Relig-
ious hypocrisy is the curse OF the
church, the curse of society. 1t is a
cancerous curse, consuming the soul
Of the hypocrite as those with whom
he associates. Its influence is stealthy
but sure. One man is discovered to
be pious fraud. The discoverer
finds that fraud prospers and is called
good man" Then the discoverer
reflects that the policy is good one:
fraud enjoys all the lusts of the
flesh, and Is yet an acknowledged
champion in the warfare against sin.
He himself becomes a pious fraud,
and thus the evil grows. Honest
piety is goodly virtue. Sincere re-
ligion is a noble faith. Love Of God
and goodness, actively practieed and
professed, sweetens the soul. But
hypocrisy, living lie, treachery to
ones self, is the meanest and igno-
blest Of moral crimes The parade Of
piety for policy's sake, for business
purposes, for the accomplishment of
a purpose selfish and sinful, is crime
that God and man are slow to forgive.
Hypocrisy leaves an indelible stain
upon the soul. If long practiced it
ruins the purity and power OF ones
life. Ministers of the gospel should
be untiring in their attack on this be-
setting sin. 1t is the speeter which
makes many good people shun the
church. 1t Is destructive Of truth,
honor and virtue 1t taints al that
it touches. 1t is opposed to every
thing brave, honorable, lovely and
good.

settled. But there were signs of dis
turbance that led to an investigation,
and the awful discovery was made that
the lovely girl had been torn from her
grave! The excitement in that coun-
try town was something fearful. The
whole community, ministers and peo-
pie, became so many detectives, with
open eyes and ears. They had no
help from distant cities, and the word
police was unknown to the speech of
the people. But they tracked the
robbers to their dens. One, the dig
ger, was drinking laborer, who work
ed for money. He was convicted and
sent to States Prison. The other was
the leading physician Of the place; he
had influence that saved him from
prison, but he was banished by public
opinion from the community he had
outraged. He would have starved had
he stayed, and he fled to live.
Now return to Ohio. Think of the
family and friends Of Miss Hoffman,
of Mount Tabor. Suddenly cut down
by death on her return from church,
buried by loving hands, and mourned
by large circle of relatives and friends;
she, an estimable Christian lady,
is pierced with an iron through her
fair forehead. then dragged brutally
and bodily from her hallowed bed,
carried off, and pitched like dead
beast into the snow by the roadside
Thus unspeakahie anguish is driven
INTO the hearts of all who knew and
loved her, They will never think of
her now without IA sbGdder. In the
night they will wake and tremble over
the frightful scene. Other thousands
are anxious lest their loved dead. more
loved when dead than in life, are in
the hands Of worse than savages, for
no Savages known to history are vio-
lators of the grave.
No reputable physician approves of
such crimes. And my appeal is to all
medical men, by their Journals, their
Conventions, and their Lectures, to
create such a sentiment a3 would pre-
vent these crimes.
The law makes abundant provision
for the wants Of science. The un-
claimed bodies Of those who die friend
less, after having been supported by
the State, are very properly devoted
to such useful purposes. And in the
interests of our Christian civilization
aud the common brotherhood Of the
human family, l make this appeal, to
those who have it in their power, to
stop these outrages at once and for
ever. IRENEUs.

Presiding at the Guiteau Trial.

The trial in progress directs at
tention in special manner to the
learned gentleman who presides
thereat. Judge Cox is now and
henceforward a historic parsonage !;
therefore a few notes about him
have special interest at the present
time.
Judge Walter S. Cox is about
forty-fve years of age. He was bern
in the District of Columbia. His
prominence as lawyer dates from
the year 1868, and was earned in
the courts under the shadow of the
Capitol. His promotion by Pres
ident Hayes to a judgeship in the
District Court was general surprise
the custom having previously been
to appoint the incumbents OF this
honorable position from outside the
District Of Columbia.
The Judges family history in-
cludes that of an adventurous broth
er who was, prior to the war of the
rebellion, an officer in the United
States Army. Upon the breaking
out of the war, he deserted and flee
to rebel headquarters where he founc
responsible employment under Gen
eral Lee. Another brother has serv
ed long time as clerk in the State
Department at Washington. He is
gentleman very much respected
and physically among the fine look
ing men Of the Capital,
