The young lady had q strong and resolute
face, but Mrs. Hewitt suddenly became aware
and there was q hurt as well as q weary look In
her eyes, and all her motherly compassion was
aroused
''But 1t don't make any difference, child
mean ma'am: I've no doubt you can preach as
well as half the men. We know what rs going
on in the world, II we do live q good ways
out OF It; only there never did happen to be q
woman preacher anywhere about here so It took
nae by surprise. We believe In giving women a
fair chance here in Scragg End, can tell you. -

''Oh, we shall think everything OF you I've
no doubt-after while. You don't know what
1t is to be without regular preaching as long as
we have. Come right in and get rested. and
have cup OF tea, for I expect you've had q
hard Journey"
Before escorting her guest to her room Mrs.
Hewitt managed to slip upstairs and slyiy alb
stract Lysander's new shaving set from the
! toilette table, where she had placed It for the
convenience OF the new minister
IL Is undeniable that at the first receipt OF the
news general dismay overspread Scragg End.
The older people were disposed to consider that
| TRICK had been played upon them, and were
angry accordingly some even going so far as
| to wish to have Miss Barton told that her SER
vices could be dispensed with. But nobody
seemed willing to tell her, and there was q
great curiosity to hear her preach. There were
| few courageous spirits who openly avowed
teat they saw no reason why o woman should
not preach, and were glad to have one for a
minister. Many complained Of Miss Barton, a
youth, but acknowledged that thew wonId NOT
have objected on that score to a young man
oftwenty-six or twenty-seven, which was her
age.
There were some who thought she was too
handsome for q minister aud others who
Thought That since she was going to set herself
up for everybody to look at, it was pity tnat
she was not hands0mer; some who thought
women ought not to preach at all, and others
who Thought some wGmen might be allowed to,
but that Miss Barton was not OF the right kind.
IL was tacitly agreed that she should be given q

Inducing others to make improvements, sanitary

"She was as practical and efficient as II she
was not woman" many people said; and old
Jeremy Grimes, who had wished to tell her
when she came that they didn't want woman
preacher. said, ''They couldn't have had such
women in st. Paul's time, or he never would
have written what he did"
But Mrs. Hewitt had grievance Miss Barton
dldn seem TO make herself one Of the family
as she used to. She was shut up in her own
room almost ali the time now, and she and Ly-
sander didn't seem to get along together as thew
used to. She never came into the kitchen and
wanted to help make cake now, or sat with
them around the fire In the evening while Lysan-
der read aloud. She didn't seem to have any
thing against them, but she wasn't free and So

questionings Lysander replied that neither Of
them had any time for It now.
Mrs. Hewitt could not make It out. 'spa, -
who prided himself upon being long-headed,
limited that he could, but he would not say out
right what he thought. and biz wife regarded
his hints with lofty scorn.
One afternoon, after school hours Lysonder
went down to the woods back Of the house to

The celebration of their tenth ami.
versary by the Knights OF Honor of
this city at Estival Park on the 18th
inst, promises to be most interesting
and delightful affair. 1t will be unique
from the fact that none but members
in good standing and their families
will be admitted, but the 400 mem
bers in the city and visiting brethren
from distance can get up q good sized
picnic. The families of members who
may be absent can obtain badges and
attend, by applying to the Financial
Reporter Of the members lodge No
member admitted without a badge.
No charge for the admission of anyone.
Visiting members can make them,
selves known and obtain badges OF
admission. The music will be on the
ground at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon.
and the regular exercises will begin at
8 o'clock sharp. The committee in
charge is working up an attractive
programme, which will be duly an
nounced. Miss Susie Greenwood in
her usual accommodating spirit has
kindly consented to sing a solo. This
will be the first general re union aud
picnic ever given by the knights Of
Honor Of Memphis, and bids fair to
be the event of the season.

John M. Cayce, of OsceOIa,
browns Himself at
Plum Point.
OscEOLA, ARK., june %. 1ssa.

OscEOLA, ARK, June &c, 1888.
EDITOR LEDGER:-Some five or
six years ago young man by the name
Of John NJ. Cayce came to this place
from luka, Miss. He had not been
here but q short time when he mar
ried Miss Henwood, of this place,
whose mother at the time was running
a grocery store and saloon connected
with 1t, and he was a clerk in the es.
adjustment A short time thereafter
he went into the same kind of bust
ness for himself, aud for year or two
he became very popular, but as time
rolled Oh he became one Of his best
custemers-drsnk to excess, drove
fast horses, neglected his wife, took
up with other women, etc. His wife
died year and half ago, broken
hearted, but he never quit the habits
he had already taken up. finally his
peculiar good nature (if, in fact, such
term could be applied to him or his
character under the circumstances
he began to waste his estate, and soon
became a bankrupt. He then made
an assignment and quit business, since
which time, about a year and halt
ago, he has been spending a part of
his time in drinking and gambling at
Plum Point, just opposite this place,
until Sunday evening about the mid
die of the afternoon, he ended his
miserable life by jumping into the
river and drowning. He had, q few
hours before he committed the horri-
BILE deed, remarked to some friends
that the world had no use for him,
that lately his conduct had been bad,
etc. No one, however, thought Of his
intentions at the time, as he seemed
to be considerably under the ia
huence of liquor, which
proved to be his destruction.
He went to where his mother and sis
ter lived which was near by, but said
nothing to them as to what he intended
to do, but wrote something on a pa
per, stuck it in his pocket and left the
place, few minutes later and be was
seen to take of his hat and vest, lay
them down on the guards of the boat,
Zone OF the government boats upon
which he was then stauding), and
plunge himself into the river. The
following is a copy Of the note found
in his vest pocket: Il am gone; moth
ing against any one. The disease l
had made me drink, and then would
do foolish things, which make me
drink. Again, | have been accused
Of things [ have never done; l never
hurt the hair Of any ones head. John
NJ. Cayce." A few moments after he
bad thrown himself into tho river his
body foated to the surface of the
water, but before any assistance could
be rendered he sank out of sight into
the bosom Of the mighty river on his
road to eternity; thus ending the
miserable life of a once intelligent,
honest and Industrious young man.

on Tuesday evening next, after which
they take a much desired rest until
October, when they will again enter
into regular rehearsals with view OF
repeating their late successful effort
toward furnishing our people the
grandest music festival ever given in
the South.
The Rev. Fl. A. Jones, of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church, whose
pulpit has for two years past been
occupied every Sunday. with single
exception, has been granted by the
officers of his church two months
leave Of absence. The reverend gen.
tleman will leave here next Sunday,
and the following Thursday expects
to sail for abroad from New York
City, and he expects to visit the
scenes Of bis childhood in England
while away.
The newly erected establishment Of
2 Lords & Diehl at Nashville was de.
stroyed by FIRE this morning, and the
loss is total. Some four months ago
the same firm were burned out at
Nashville and sustained serious fnan-
cial loss, but they had recently re-
built and were in good working con-
dition, employing some fifty or more
hands. The firm does an extensive
beer bottling and soda water traffic.
Their loss this time is estimated at
some $4,000, and insurance very
light.
The irrepressible washerwomen
continue to use washing soda, concen-
trated I've, or other compounds, to save
labor, and the result is the family
washing is eaten full of holes by these
chemicals. The washerwomen delib
erately, wantonly and knowingly injure
property, entailing great loss as well as
vexation upon owners. The washers
women Of Holland have a world vide
reputation as experts in cleaning gar
ments without the use Of chemicals,
and it would be a boon of happiness
to the suffering housewife if few of
these Hollanders could be induced to
make their permanent home in Mem
phis.
