WAS III A MIRACLE:

A singular case OF restoration Of
speech in response to prayer, is report
ed TO have occurred in tins place few
days ago As far as we have been able
To gather The facts, they are as follows
Since the 2nd day OF April last, Miss
Lille B. Alter, OF Greencastle, through
some cause was deprived OF the faculty
Of speech and could not articulate above
a whisper. Recently she came TO
Chambersburg tor medical treatment.
A physician from Shippensburg, was
also consulted, and after making care
ful diagonis of her case, gave 1t as his
opinion that a cnre could not be affected
by any human skill. Left thus without
any encouragement from the doctors,
and being n prayerlul Christian lady,
for two mouths she made her malady
the subject of earnest prayer, and placed
herself entirely in the hands ot the
Great PHYSICIAN, AT various times she
had evidence that the Lord would ulti-
malcly effect a cure, and she continued
her suppicatiUhs. In the meantime n
series o. religious meetings were inaug'
urated in the South Second street, L u.
Church, and here she was regular at
tendant and took an earnest pant in the
meetings. On Saturday evening last,
during service, she iu,ima,ed 10 airlend
she wishod she had the power OF speech
in order that she might praise the Lord
aloud aud in a more becoming manner.
1T you cannot praise the Lord aloud,
you can do silently" replied her friend.
"Yes." continued Miss Alter, "but |
shall praise Him aloud, for feel IL. v
She then sank into an unconscious
state, and remained in that condition for
some minutes. Upon returning TO con
sciousness, to the surprise and relief OF
her friend, and others about her, she
began praising and giving thanks to
God in full, clear voice, Tor His good
ness in restoring again her lost faculty.
The above we have from uudoub,ed
authority, aud the cure is, by many be-
! lieyed 10 be a miracle worked 10y the
Almighty Her voice at last accounts,
seems to have been fully restored

CoLoRED CLAIMANTS FOR S5,000,000 IN
VIRGINIA Property.


Rev. 4. Cumberland, a colored min
lister of Mechanicsburg, Ohio, was in tie
city yesterday. lie is representing the
interests of number OF colored people
who claim TO be the heirs ofOne Samuel
Gist, wealthy Englishman, who owned
property in Virginia, in the early part
of the century that is now worth from
SS,O0O,009 TO Sj,000,000. Briefly out
lined, the story of the bequest is as fol
lows Gist made will in 1910, leav-
ing all his American property TO his
PA slaves, with their freedom. Matthew
Toler and John Wickham, OF Virginia,
were appointed Trustees. Gist died in
1915.
The property bcqueatbed was in Han
over, Goochland, Henrico, Amherst and
Carolina counties, ard in the Dismal
Swamp. In 1916, by act of the Gener-
al Assembly of Virginia, the slaves
were freed in conformity with the pro-
visions OF the will, but were removed
from the Virginia land. The trustees

have them put on lands in Brown and
Highland counties, Ohio. AS time wore
on they allowed their trust to lapsei
some OF tue colored people bought and
paid for the land they were on. Re.
Gently convention OF about Two hun
dred colored people who claim to be
heirs TO the Virginia property under the
will of Samuel Gist, held convention
in IIillsboro' and determined TO prose
cute their claims. The matter was
given TO the care Of Rev. +. Cumber
land, of Mcchanicsburg, who has con-
suited and employed attorneys, who
think that sufficient documentary evi
deDce can be found to prove the claims
of the colored people. Mr.. Cumber-
land is anxiols tu hear from any other
heirs of Samuel Gist under the will

BE Careful How You Speak.

In speaking of persons faults,
Pray don't forget your own;
Remember, those with homes of glass
Should never throw 4 stone.
If we have nothing else TO DO
Than talk OF those who sin,
'TiS better 10 commence at home,
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge man
Until he's fairly tried
Should we not like his company,
We know the world is wide.
Some may have faults (who has not:)
The old as well us young;
Perhaps we may, for AL we know,
Haye fifty TO their one.
III tell you of better PLAN
find it works full well;
To try my own defects TO cure,
Ere others faults ltell.
And though | sometimes hope to be
No worse than some know,
My own short comings bid me let
The faults of others 80.
Then let us all when wo begin
To slander friend or foe,
Think OF the harm one word may do
To those who better know.
Remember, blunders sometimes, like
Our chickens, "rOOSt at home;
Don't speak of others faults until
We have none of onr own.

THE effort Made before Ju1ge Jameson
yesterday In the Stern murder case to obtain
a change Of venue by swearing prejudice
against everybody, tho old trick to secure
delays md tl,wart justice, was properly but
none too severely rcDNkcd by the Court. The
first motion made by tho lawyer for tho tle-
feMse, for change Of venue out OF tho
county, .hl,d beyond WIN md Du Page.
was promptly ovorrulcd upol, the ground
of 1ugal objections which were sufficient.
a motion wAs then made for 4
change Of ycnuc from Judges Jameson md
Tuley, alleging prejudice OH their part
agatnst tho prisoner, with aflldaylts setting
forth said prejudice. Before disposIng Of
this motion, Judge Jameson stated tint he
had ndycr heard of Stern or uf the oirense Ut
homicide aileged agnlnst him, aud lie dit
mot know one of the persons who Ind made
tho affidavit against him. nlltl that sucll Mfl!-
