The Rev. Thomas Guard, pastor OF Mount
Vernon Methodist Episcopal Church, and
one Of the most eminent clergymen OF
his denomination in this country, died

ing, at his residence, No. $50 Park Avenue,
aged fiity-one years. He underwent, last
Tuesday. the operation of litholaraxy to re-
eve him Of calculus, with VII ca lie h. d
been suffering Tor long time, and the re-
suit OF the ex pertinent was considered &c
ccssul. Hopes were entertained for hls re-
covery until Thursday night, when disor-
dcrs Of the stomach manifested themselves
and the patient began 70 weaken. 1t was
then decided that he had bat a few days to
live. lie was a born orator. and his rapid,
animated uttcrnce WAS eagerly listened 10
bv large assemblies whenever he spoke. In
nearly all The Methodist churches, and
in mang 0fthcse of the Episcopalian, Pres
bytcrian and Baptist denominations, Mr.
Guards death was regretfnlly announced
and his life eulogized. Long before the
time arrived for the services at Mount Yer
non Church to begin small gatherings of
members Of the con grcgati0n collected about
the pavement Of the edifce and spoke IN
subducd tones of what had occurred. Sor-
row seen ed general, for the little crowds
were frequently enlarged by ladies and gem
tlemcn Of different denominations, VINO
would stop to shake hands with friends nd
express their sympathy. Inside the church
the feeling of sadness prevailed to such an
extent that even the children appeared to
feel and understand It's significance. {hc
altar was d.apcd in mourning. Services
were conducted by Bishop Alpheus W. Viii
son. Of the N. l.. Church, South. The Rev.
ittcton Morgan was present and occupied

his sermon which was ON eternal life the
Bishop described the attainment Of perfect
character, aud produced dpon his hearers
impression that he was drawing 4 picture Of

shewnsth Feast of Lawgivins.

Israelites all over the world will celebrate
tomorrow, it being the eve OF the sixth day
of Swan, the feast OF Shewnath or feast OF
lawgiving. 1t was originally ordained by
Moses to be the "Afzereth," reapers' Feast,
which was called the feast Of firstlings, to be
symbolized in the tabernacle by the offerings
Of the two loaves Of new barley -four, for the
harvest begins in Palestine about passover
time and closes about the Feast Of Weeks.
The sixth day of Swan was also the day of
revelation on Mount Sinai, and in
this sense it was celebrated when
the Hebrews, from and after the eighth GEN.
tury before Christ, were more or less dis
persed in different countries, and had less in
terest in the agricultural seasons OF
Palestine.
AS day of law-giving the Feast of Weeks
has become, with the reformed congregations,
the day of confirmation. The sons and
daughters are gathered before the holy ark,
which contains the Tharah, as their fathers
were placed before Mount Sinai, and like
them they exclaim: "We will do aad will
obey" Such confirmation will take place at
Mount Zion Temple to- morrow at $50 o'clock,
divine service commencing.
The ceremony will be throughout in the
English language, and those who have wit
messed 1t before were greatly impressed with
its sublimity. All will be welcome, we under
stand, as far as the limited capacity of the
temple will permit, but the congregation
promises better accommodations in few
weeks, when the new temple is expected to be
completed.
The 25th OF June has been set apart for
defeating the new temple.

SALTWATER.

Fred Goodrich is confined to his room with
serious attack of rheumatism and lung
fever. he is in very critical condition.
County Auditor Foley, who has been out Of
town for q short time, was in his Office again
to-day, looking much improved by his trip.
Two saloon keepers were before the munich
pal court to-day, one Of whom was charged
with selling liquor after regulation hours,
and was fined $40, which he paid The other
was charged with selling liquor to minors, but
the case was continued on account of the
defendant being sick and unable to attend
court.
A farmer was arrested this afternoon
charged with altering a wheat check. 1t ap-
pears that Inspector Armstrong gave the man
check calling for q certain number of bush
els of No. wheat. When presented at the
elevator the check was marked as being for
No. o The wheat not bearing so high grade,
Mr.. Armstrong was notified OF the matter
and soon discovered that the check had been
altered. Officer Rearden was called
and the man searched, but the check could
not be found. The man had evidently thrown
it away. 1t is said that the same person has
frequently tried to sell very inferior quality
OF wheat, by placing number OF sacks con-
tanning a superior grade on top Of his load.
and thus palm of the whole lot as No. or 2.
he has not made success Of it yet.

A Broken Bank.

BosToN, May 22.-The Pacific National
bank, which suspended some months ago and
resumed but few weeks ago, stopped pay
ment to-day, and will wind up business. Its
directors voted to 60 into liquidation, and ap-
piled for a receiver. The suspension is con-
sidered due to the lack OF business since the
resumption, the public confidence not beng
great enough to warrant any large dealings
with the concern.
The immediate cause of the suspension OF
the bank was the maturing of $500, 900, satur-
day, which the bank was unable to pay, and
which went to protest. 1t is understood that
all deposltors will be paid in full, but the
