Geo. Miller, colored, of this place, has
a siep-son, named George White Miller,
wife and step son constitute little domes-
tic paradise. Latterly, however, Satan has
been getting in his work in this family just
as he does in every other family where he
has the opportunity. He worked on Mil
Ter with whisky, and imbued the step-son
with spirit of insubordination. Miller
believed that true felicity could not exist
in the domestic organization unless para
mount authority was vested in the head
of the family, to which authority the 9TH
er members Of the family must be submis-
sively subordinate. White, while admit
ting that Miller's idea was genuinely res
thelic, determined to kick at the first OPP
portunity. Tuesday night, he was abusing
his mother, so Miller says, when the latter
gently demonstrated. This remons trance
caused White to bestov on Miller the en-.
dearing aPPellation OF "a - yaller - !"
Miller left the house, telling White to be
absent when he returned White obeyed.
The next morning, hearing that White was
at the depot, Miller armed himself with
hickory whip-stock, in the rough, and
went up to give his step-son threshing.
White fell back lP the railroad and Mil
Ter pursued hotly. Seeing that he was
about To be overtaken, White wheeled,
drew his "Smith & Wesson" and fired
three shots at the beloved fora Of his step
father. At the first shot Miller halted
During the rest Of the firing he made his
way towards town. None Of the shots
took effect. White escaped to the wood,
and though pursued by the Jailer, was not
captured.

MuRDKR, rapine and robbery are
such every day occurrences that unless
one is particularly interested in the
victim, the news OF the preparation
passes, to use an old expression, in at
one ear and out at the other, leaving
no impression. Occasionally, how
ever, a murder, at once so cruel and
atrocious arrests the mind and makes
one sh0dder with horror. Such a one
has Just been committed near Decatur,
Ind, the victim being young school
teacher of rare beauty and voluptu-
business. Miss Emily Numbers, a girl
of17, who had but recently graduated,
persuaded her parents for the novelty
of the thing. to let her teach a private
school. Their consent was given. and
for a while she fully enjoyed the new
responsibilities. Her lovely face,
perfect form and gentle disposition had
made her the belle of her neighbOr.
hood, and she counted her lovers by
the score. But her beauty was to her
a fatal gift, for fiends looked lustfully
on her and sought her ruin. II was
her custom to go to the school-house,
which was in secluded place, earlier
than her scholars and see that the fires
were built and the room swept out.
Tuesday morning she went as usual,
entirely unconscious Of the fearful fate
that awaited her. Concealed in the
house were the devils that had plotted
her shame and death, and when the
children arrived at the regular hour
they were Mortified to see her lying on
the floor, half stripped Of her cloth
ing, her arm cut off, here bowels pro-
truding, and her tongue actually pull
ed out BY the roots. The devils had
repeatedly ravished her, and after
cruelty mutilating her body, had
sought to make sure that she could
not divulge their identity by tearing
out her tongue. The perpetrators OF
the dasiardly crime are as yet I'M
known, but the whole section is arous-
ed and swear the most condign ven
geance. 1t is almost beyond the grasp
of the human mind to conceive how
things calling themselves men could
perpetrate such crime, and no death
short of slowly roasting at the stake
can even partially attone their devil
ish deed.

The Mormon Temple at Nauvoo.

There are scarcely two accounts
which exactly agree in every particu-
lar as to the dimensions and cost cf the
old Mormon temple at Nauvoo, Han
cock county, Ill. We have carefully
examined several Of these, and give
the results herewith. An English
gentleman named Henry Caswell
quoted by Davidson and Stuve in
their "History of Illinois writes as
follows in regard to the temple
1t is 120 feet by 100, and when COM
pleted will be fifty feet up to the caves.
Its expense is estimated at $500, 000
The baptismal font is finished. 1t is a
capac:ous laver, about twenty feet
square, rests on the backs of twelve
oxen, well-sculptured, and as large as
life. The laver and oxen are wood,
painted, but are to be gilded." Oar
penter's History of Illinois :"
speaks as follows of the tenn
pie: "The plan for this immense
structure allowed no particular order of
architecture, although it more promi-
nently resembled the Egyptian. In the
basement was an immense laver, in i'm
itation CT the brazen sea of Solomon.
1t was supported by twelve gilded oxen,
hewn from the trunks of large trees,
with their faces projecting outward. The
temple was never finished, After the
expulsion ofthe Mormons from Nauvoo,
commissioners were permitted to remain
to dispose of this and other property.
Several attempts were made to sell it
for educational, manufacturing and
other purposes, but they all failed, and
the temple stood as waste property
until the torch of the incendiary re-
duced it to ashes" Another account
describes the temple as $50 feet long,
by ninety feet wide, and of pol
ished limestone; and another gives
the dimensions us $50 feet long,
seventy eight feet wide, sixty
five feet to the cornice, and 163
feet to the top of the cupola. In the
year lS48 the building was set on fire,
and all destroyed except the walls, which
on May 27, 1850, were overthrown by q
tornado. Carpenter describes the place
thus: Mature has not formed along the
Great rivers a more picturesque or eligible
site for large city. The succession of
terraces ascending from the river until
the high land is reached, furnish
gradual slope of remarkable beauty; no.
bic groves of tall oaks, interspersed by
winding vistas, cloihe the ground to
the summit of the ridge, from whence
an immense undulating prairie is visi-
BILE" The town of Nauvoo, according
to the census of 1880, has a population
OF l,4O2. When the Mormons were
there, in the height of their power, the
city had population estimated at from
$1,000 to $4,000 - Chicago Inter Ocean.

Among thousand forms OF benevo-

than that which affords to the poor
children of great cities breath Of coun-

securing a summer retreat for sick chill
dren from the heat and unhealthfulness

careful investigation and consultation
with sanitary and medical experts, in
the following manner, in the
language of the secretary Of the
Wilson ssnitarium "Our trusees

six hundred feet above tide water. The

principally with children under two
years of age, taking the mother with
her infant, and, if necessary, one or two
other children if they are too young to
be left at home to keep then till re-
stored to health, and then return them
to their homes. The sanitarium will
be open only during, the summer
months, probably about fifteen weeks !;
the diseases those incident to bad
weather, not chronic cases. We deal
