A strange story comes from Union
county. Arkansas. but il i as true as
il is strange. Three young men were
sitting on their horses in the road dis
sussing the probabilities Of rain from
3 cloud which was just then rising in
the west. The youngest Of the group.

drouth, and ramaFked that God who
wsnld allow bis people 70 suffer thus
eouldn't amount 70 much. AS he was
speaking this the boys were encircled
with lightning. and the speaker
stunned severely. though his ccmpan-
ions were unscathed. Recovering, he
renewed the subject reviling the SUI
preme Power. Instantly . bolt Of
lightning issued out Of the cloud over
head and the young man fell dead in
bis tracks. Nearly every bone il his
body was mashed to a jelly, while his
boots were torn from his feet and
the clothing away from. his lower ex-
trenities. The body presented q hor-
ribIe appearance. being a bsackened
and maRgled mass Of humanity. His
eompanions were dazsd aud thrown
to the ground, bat not seriously in
iured.
The funeral Of the unfortunate
young man occurred the next dav, at
tracing . large crowd, the larger
portion Of whom were drawn thither
by the rumor Of the strange events
proceeding the demise OF the Young
man. When the body xaz deposited
- the grave aud the loose earth had
heeh thrown in until the aperture
was Glled, and the friends az the dead
nan yes fingered ia the cemetery, .
bolt Of lightning descended from 4
ele.ld dir ely over the burial place
and struck the grave. tkrcwing the
dirt - i pillow had passed length

but those present ecastered paraIyzed
with terror. The incident excited q

Pastoral Letter.


CINcINNATI, March 30.-The Catholic
provincial council, which met here recently
prepared lengthy pastoral letter to be read
in all the churches. 1t received its first
publication To-Day in the Catholic Tee-
graph, 1t begins with review of the
progress of religion since the last council,
twenty years ago, and congratulates the
church on its transition from the mission
epoch to condition of lixity. 1t then goes
on to speak of the necessity of obedience
to the authority, holds that all
men are not equal, and that men ordained
to rule as kings, magistrates, bishops and
priests have rights which subjects do not,
1t lamcnts the disposition to try God be-
fore court ofthe human race, and says no
man has right to teach ialsehood or to
change a jot or little of the law of God. 1t
is very outspoken on the subject of labor
unions. II says mans labor
is his own as much as the
gold of the rich man. He
has n right to sell it as he pleases at u fair
price, and so long as men accede to Others
the same freedom they claim for themselves
there is no sin in labor banding together for
selfprotection, but labor unions are liable
to fail and cannot be sustained when they
attempt to force man to join a union or
TO work for price fixed by union. Cath
olcs cannot be partners i'll any attempt to
coerce Others against just rights, nor to do
injury to any person or property Of
others. The letter has long par
agraph in which it vigorously denounces
the Irish World in its advocacy of the
cause of Ireland. 1--WE are ready it says,
ito cooperate with the bishops of Ireland
in any legitimate efforts to ameliorate the
present unhappy condition of the Irish
people, The letter condemns much ofthc
modern church music and says the Gregg.
rian chant is the recognized form. Ii di-
reefs that all music that sayors of the
theatre, or the opera, shall be excluded
from choirs, as also all music that attracts
the attention of people from the altar to
the choir. Much is said condemnatory
OF secret societies., especially such
as have u religious hierarchy
or form of liturgy, 1t says II is not
Catholic doctrine that all power comes from
the people, and that the rulers do not ex-
ercse authority rs their own, but as en-.
trusted to them by tie people. The Catho.
lie doctrine is that the grant of power is not
given by the people, but they only desig-
nate who is to WELD it. AS to the priest,
the people are commanded to seek law
from his lips, and in all matters of civil life
appertaining to faith and morals the priest
has right to speak and the people are re-
quired to listen This doctrine, il is said
may be unpopular with modern liberalism,
but that does not prove it untrue.

Minister Morton the 22d inst. MS follows,
1.-THE health officer of Cincinnati ce.tifes

two cases there In few years also due TO
eating raw pork The places mentioned are
great pork. producing and consuming dis
tricts of the United States, while the whole
country consumes more pork per capita
than any other country.
The secretary has since received from Nor

NATcHEz, Miss, March 30.-The report
telegraphed last night OF the burning of
Ralston's Clubhouse, with loss of 10 lives,
proves to be entirely unfounded, but as the
letter containing the intelligence came from
a reliable source, it was taken for granted
that the catastrophe had truly occurred.
The manager of the Ralston place is here
and says there is no truth whatever in the
report, as he left the place yesterday and
no fire had occurred there, The weather
is clear and pleasant. The river has fallen
