MARYLAND man has sued for divorce from
his wife, alleging that she will not let him read
his Bible in peace and on one occasion took it

was naughty to treat the good book in this way,
but il the husband is one of those persons not
infrequently TO be found whose religion consists
in Obtrusive perusal of the Scriptures when
he should be at work, the wife would have been
justified in throwing him into the fire, and no di-
vorce should be granted him.

METHODIST conference in Canada has
dropped the word "Obey" from the marriage
service. 1t is not too late yet for the numerous
young women hereabouts who are likely to be
married soon to insist upon going over to Cana
da for the ceremony. Before they go, however,
1t may be as we'll to mention that the form
which has been substituted is "wit thou love,
honor and keep him in sickness and in healthP
In the United States language 40 keep him"
can mean nothing else than "to support him."
If the brides are not prepared from private in
comes or professions to do this, perhaps it
would be as well to stay at home and obey.

SOME sleeping-car conductors on the Lake
Shore road had so n UGH to do that they intrust-
ed to the porters the work of collecting and
punching the tickets. The porters instead OF
turning all the tickets over to the conductors,
sold them to scalpers and realized a neat sum
before they were detected and arrested Most
travellers believe the duties of a sleeping-car
conductor to consist of collecting the tickets and
OF sleeping in the best berth in the car. After
reading the foregoing they will conclude that
conductors on the Lake Shore must retire
even earlier than their brethren other roads,

DOWN In South Carolina a dead body is
something more than a handful of dust,
unless, indeed, it may be considered as
gold dust. Two years ago W. 8. Hook,
a well-known white citizen of Lexington,
was murdered by negro. who threw the body
on the railroad track. Three trains ran over it
in the night before it was discovered, disfguring
and mangling 1t terribly. The administrator of
Hook sued the railroad company for Injuries
done to the corpse, claiming that the mutation
was caused by negligence of the company. The
referee in the case has decided in favor of the
plaintiff and allows him 81 1000 damages.

THE descendants of William Bradford, first
Governor of Plymouth colony, have had their
eyes fixed longingly on the Bank of England,
which they were led to believe contained $780,
100000, the accumulated principal and interest
of their distinguished ancestors estate, and of
which they hoped to get possession. How many
and how high were the castles built with the
prospective millions perhaps the Anneke Jams
heirs can guess but the fair structures have
fallen into dust. Consul-geheral Merritt, of Lon
don. has written to the State Department saying
that after investigating the matter he finds that
there Is no such fund in existence, and no foun-
dation for the assertion that there is. The con-
sui general perhaps goes little too far in tins
statement. The millions may not exist, but the
foundation for the story lay in the belief in the
minds of the Governors descendants that if he
was the kind of they took him to be he
would have left an estate in trust for them.
REV. HENRY WARD BEECHER, on his way home
from the Pacific coast, encounters reporter
every few miles, who insists upon having the

a column Interview in Kansas City paper we
extract the following important nformaton:
''Mr Beecher thinks Mr.. Talmage is good fell
low but has never heard him preach but once
He objects TO Puget Sound because it ismade of
water and wafer makes HIM sick, and this is
probably, though not positively his last lecture
tour" The Plymouth pastors memory should
serve him better. Last season, have the
documents to prove, was "pesitvely" his last.

A man by the name of Silas Gray OF
Pennsylvania. who had been tried for
murder and sentenced to be hanged May
20. is likely to be released on recent evil
dence going TO show that he is innocent.
The person murdered was woman by
the name of McCready. the deed having
been done seven years ago. A convict in
the State Prison testified that Gray
confessed to him that he did
the deed. On Thursday last a postal
card was received at a newspaper Office
in Harrisburg. signed Hiram Bowermaster,
Shippensburg. saying that Gray was inno-
confessed to the writer of it that he had
committed the murder Bowermaster and
Jack Pettys were iellow-prisoners in the
Western Penitentiary, and worked at ad-
joining benches in the shop. Silas Gray
was in another department of the same
prison, and was taken away to be tried for
the murder of Mrs. McCready. When
this became known among the prisoners
Pettys asked Bowermaster what he
thought would be done with him if
it was known that he, not Gray, had
murdered the woman. This was in
the early part OF December 1879.
He talked about it almost every
day after that, and acknowledged to
Bowermaster that he had killed the woman
on the bank OF a stream. Bowermaster
says Pettys also talked about it to another
prisoner named Frank May. The secret
seemed to weigh upon him, and on Christ

his towel and hanged himself in his cell.

communication appears in the New

which she renews the attack upon the land
league and reaffrms her charges of fraud in
the management of the land league funds.
She declares that she is the tool of no one,
but her action is Influenced solely bv desire
to open the eyes of all honest men to the
hideous reality of what the land league is.
If Egan can clear himself of suspicion. let
him do so; but at the same time he must
present something more than his bare asser-
ton to refute the charges. No one believes
him, and until he has proved beyond doubt
that her charges are false, he will be neither
cleared nor exonerated from what she has
said against him in regard to the expenditure
of the land league funds.

The recent somewhat sensational stories
concerning an interruption of our
present harmonious diplomatic rela-
tions with England, and of alleged
stormy interviews between Secretary FIRE.
linghuysen and Minister West. are found
on careful inquiry to be sheer fabrications.
Not only is it improbable that anything
has transpired at Washington suggesting
unfriendliness between our government
and Great Britain. but it is doubtful il any
one of the recently alleged communca-
tions has ever been made. The only foun-
dation for all these stories and rumors
seems to be the fact that the British Min
lister has expressed to our State Depart
ment his regret at the violent declarations
of the dynamite blusterers in this country.
and has requested the United States to see
to it that there is no violation of the neu-
trality laws 1t is further understood that
Secretary Frelinghuysen has notified Min
lister West that any overt acts will be sup
pressed.
