A CELEBRATED CASE.-At the trial which
is now progressing at Nyneghphaza, in
Hungary, of number Of Jews accused of
having murdered a Christian girl at THAR
Ezlar to use her blood to mix with their
passover bread, a sister of the girl alleged
to have been murdered, testified that she
spoke to her sister on the afternoon the MUIR
der is said to have occurred, while, on the
other hand, the principal witness for the
prosecution, a Jewish boy named Moritz
Schorf, swore that he saw the murder COM
mitted in the synagogue before the midday
meal was partaken.
The trial is causing extraordinary excite
ment. The Christians in the vicinity are
intensely hostile to the accused men, and
those who attend the trial jeer the counsel
for the defence when they rise to speak. The
father of the boy, Schorf, is one of the pris-
oners charged with the crime: The boy,
though not legally compelled to testify
against his father, elected to do so. The
prisoners curse and spit at the witnesses
who testify against them. 1t has been elic-
tied in the course of the trial that the boy,
Schorf, intends to become a Christian, that
he has been told by Catholic priests about
the alleged use of Christian blood in making
passover bread and that he had been threat
ened by the police prior to the opening of
the examination.

NEWSPAPER ORROWERs.-Every sue
cessful newspaper has three classes of read
ers. First comes the honest, straightfor-
ward, prompt-paying subscriber, who is
never in arrears, and who seems to realize
the fact that it costs something to run a
newspaper This is the class Of subscribers
that editors love. They are the backbone
of the newspaper business. Next to the
above comes the "slow coach" subscriber,
who, like the cows tail, is always behind
He will read the paper just as long as he can
without paying for it, and when you stop
his paper because he won't pay, he consld-
ers the debt settled. We have known this
class to embrace many prOfessed Christians
and not few preachers all of which goes
to prove that human nature is human ma
ture. The editor don't care much about
this class of subscribers, and it is source OF
relief to him when one of them comes in
and ''pays" up and stops "his paper" The
last class of readers is the borrower. TOO
mean and stingy to subscribe for the paper,
he sponges on his neighbor, who in many
cases, is less able to pay for the paper thalS
the "sponger." These fellows can never
find anything in the paper worth reading,
which is the general reason they give for
not subscribing, but somehow or other there
is always news enough to induce them to
"sneak" round and "sponge" it from those
who do subscribe and pay for it, and it is in
the interest of this class of our patrons that
this article is written. Let every borrower
read it and mend his Ways.-Ordnge6eny

Mrs. E. D. E. N. Southworth.

A few days age Joe Shillington, amaga-
zine and newsdealer, pointed out to me
tall, spare woman, with a sad, grave face,
and gray hair, who dressed 10 black, and
appeared to be over 80 years old: ''Do you
know who that is ?" asked he. mo, do

Mrs. Emma D. E. N. Southworth, and I
will tell you something about her," I
looked again and saw face Of remarkable
strength, with mouth and chin indicating
great determination, and forehead full of
intellect. And then Mr. Shillington told me
his story. Thirty five years ago, said he

daily visitor to my store. She was always
dressed in black (she never wears 'scolors. ~

and we all got to regard her as little
''off." 1 was then the general agent of the
Baltimore San in Washington, and looked
after it's circulation here. One day "the
queer woman" approached me very cauti-
ously, looking around to see that no one OBJ
served her, and took from under her black
shawl a big bundle of manuscript, and told
ne it was story she had been writing and
asked me to have 1t printed in the San. This
rather confirmed me in my belief that she
was little queer" but, however, took
her bundle and promised to comply with
her request. looked over the manuscript
a little. and finally sent it tothe Sun. The
editor found much merit in the story, but
did not have room for it, and it was sent
by him to the Philadelphia Saturday Vasi-

A MAN WHO HAS HAD NINE WINES -
An old gentleman residing in Simmons
Gap. Ca, has about as wide and varied
experience of domesticity as any man since
the days of King Augustus II, of Poland.
This happy man who has attained the pa
triarchial age of eighty years, has had the
extreme felicity of being married nine
times; and it is the ninth wife who is at
present solacing-we can't say his declining
years, because there is no knowledge what
are the potentiallties of a man who has dis
played such hardwood who is at any

"Well it was all owing to the way in
which Mr.. Stevens insisted on kissing her
in 'Passion's Slave Miss Carlyon's hus-

and he insisted that hereafter his wife
should be kissed on the ear or behind it.,
instead of on the lips, and out Of this flss

son of the company"
Miss Carlyon, whose name off the stage
is Mrs. Melville, was found at the South

just beneath her chin. Then he pulls her
head back to his shoulder and kisses her

Photographlng the Baby.

Most Young married couples have first
baby. TIE first baby is always remarkable
child. Such physical beauty, such intellec-
tual duickness and genius, and such moral
perfection were never before united in one
being. Other babies may be all very well in
their way, but the first baby is something
peculiarly marvellous. All it's aunts rave
over it, and even it's uncles are moved to
say ''Keecher, keecher, keacher." and
chuck it under the chin with a forefn-
ger, by way of ingratiating themselves
with the infant.
Of course the fond parents think that
the infant must be photographed. The
