preme Court of the United States. Judging
from the animus of the fight and the mani

the case will find its way to the highest tri-

strength inherent to the subject-matter, the
respective sides of the case are represented
by the most eminent lawyers of the country.

Lancaster (Pa.) I~ntelligencer, a Democratic

is charged With refusing to enforce a certain

HE DIDN'T BELIEVE IN HE'LL.


Report in st. Louis Republican.
Earlier in the evening the case of Brother
George Morebeck, charged, under a general
head. of heresy, and under two specifications
to that effect, was called, and as he was not
present his case was laid over. He had ar
rived later in the evening, and DIR. Lotion
asked that the case be taken up. The gen
tleman preferring the charges had not the
documents with him. but was instructed to
state his case orally. He stated that Brother
Morebeck had expressed a belief that the
soul was xtinc after death until resurrec-
ton, ana that there was no such thing as
eternal punishment for the wicked, but to-
tai humiliation; that the brethren and dea-
cons had talked and labored with Brother
Morebeck in the hope of having him con.
form more closely 20 the articles OF the Bap-
fist faith, but their efforts were futile.
DR.. Lotion then put the question to Broth
er Morebeck whether he still expressed, en-
tertained and sustained these views as were
elucidated in the charges, and he arose with
a Bible in his hand and said.
II will prove by the Word that my posi-
ton is right. and that my belief is warranted
by the words of Scripture"
"You need not read anything to sustain
your position" replied the moderator; I'VE
could argue the question all night without
getting any closer to a conclusion. | merely
ask you, do you or do you not plead guilty
to differing in your views of the after life
from those laid dow in the doctrines OF the
Baptist church,"
Il believe in what is told me here" said
Brother Morebeck, grasping his Bible and
holding it up. 81 would like to read"
81 only wish you to answer whether you
plead guilty to disagreeing with the tenets OF
the Baptist faith?'
"Well-I do"
Therefore it was moved that the hand of
fellowship be withdrawn from Brother More
beck, and this was accordingly done. Brother
Marebeck still looked uncompromising and
unconcerned, and will probably enter an
other congregation where his views are more
congenial and apt to find Endorsement. The
meeting then adjourned.

Mr.. GEORGE w. JULIAN returns to his at
tack on, Mr.. Schurz about the land question.
The failure of Mr.. Henry Willard to employ
Mr.. Julian as a lobbyist for the North Pacific
railroad seems to have stirred up his bile to
an unusual degree. A Washington special
says:
Mr.. Julian, since his a~postasy from Re-
publicanism, has spent much of his time in
the Washington lobby. He has been treated
with studied contempt by his former politi-
cal associates, whom he abandoned, while
the Democrats, to whom he deserted, have
not hesitated to manifest their utter disgust.
While he was true to his principles he had q
very prominent place, and commanded gen.
eral respect. He was the anti-monopoly
champion, and the loudly proclaimed friend
of settlers. OF late years his business here
has been in the lobby, and the work he has
sought and performed. when he found any to
do, has been in directions quite contrary to
his former professions. His associates here
have been of the lobby. He has circulated,
month after month, about the House and
the corridors of the Capitol, a man who
seemed Stunned by both parties and all his
former friends. He has gained admission to
the floor, as an ex-Inember. by practically
certifying in writing that he would not use
the privilege for lobbying, and in spite of
this has piled his vocation whenever meas
ures in which he was interested were pend
ing, In a word, no man of once fair stand
ing here has fallen to a more insignificant
position since the Republican party came

THE case of butter VS.. butter in the Federal
Court, at Kansas City, promises to be a strong
one. TIL last Missouri Legislature passed an
act prohibiting the manufacture or sale of
oleomargerine, or patent butter, within the
limits of the State, and this case is brought
to test the constitutionality of the law. The
closing argument was made on Saturday be-
fore a fullsbench by Roscoe Conkling against
the validity of the statute in question, The
decision of the court is expected during the
week, but the finding is not likely to be fnal.

Abuse According to the Word.

Mrs. s. P. Sales, wife of a very prominent
citizen of this county, has just applied for a
divorce from her husband on the most singu-
lar grounds. She alleges hat Mr.. Sales holds
family worship three times each day, and at
every service he selects from the Bible all
such passages as severely condemn all man
ner OF sinful acts, and then, In the presence
of all her children, the husband hurls re-
proaches on his wife, making application of
the passage read to the case, This manner
OF abusing her by means OF the scriptures is
certainly the height of refined cruelty, and
Mrs. Sales, it is said, asks for divorce to es-
cape such treatment. She will no doubt
get it.

THAT was a sad case in the United States Court
at Milwaukee, on Saturday, when George Daub-
ner, q well-to-do and hitherto respectable
farmer, was convicted of obtaining a pension by
fraud. He is worth $50, 900, but the chances of
adding to that amount at the expense of the
government proved too great a temptation. 1t
was proved that he obtained pension arrears
amounting to $500, and 800 a month for cata-
lepsy, which he alleged he contracted by expo
sure in the army, while, in fact. he was only in
the army a few months, and never saw any serv-
ice. His fits were feigned. He was sentenced
to Imprisonment at hard labor for three years.
The distress of the man and his wife when the
sentence was pronounced is described as over
whelming. If detection of the fraud had en-
tered into his calculations at all, in~fiictiOn of
this penalty certainly had not, and his horror
was great accordingly.

he is equalled by few ana excelled by none. 1t

THE most precocious boy lives in Philadelphia,

eight years old, but was ordered to the House of
Refuge as incorrigible. He did not like the pros
pect and resolved to end his miseries by COM
mitting suicide. With his teeth, a pin and a
piece of wire he tore a hole in his arm until an
artery was reached and the blood spurted out.
This was discovered and the arm bandaged, but
when left alone again the boy tore off the COM
press and re-opened the wound. Detected the
second time he was trimmed with a rattan
switch, after which he became Doodle and prom
ised to desist from efforts at self-destruction.
When he found that some of his former street
acquaintances were inmates OF the institution
