The mortified rustic who was laughed
at for innocently inquiring who ''this
Mr. Co." was that "you see upon SO
many store-signs; he must own an awful
lot O. property" could sympathize with
honest Deacon Burwitt," who figures in
this anecdote:
One day the minister, at social con-
ference, read a beautiful hymn. So
beautiful that he expressed much regret
that the author should be unknown.
cit is really strange" said he, "that a
hymn so beautiful in every respect-fit
to be classed with the most brilliant
poetic gems-should have come to us
without the name of the author"
"Parson Kimberly, what do you
mean? demanded Deacon Burwitt, start
ing to his feet, with his hymn book in
his hand. "Why, Fvc know'd tina;

Poor old Burwitt! He knew in a mo
ment that he had made mistake some
how-that in some manner, to him in
comprehensive, he had exposed his igno
rance. That was dreadful He though
so, because the minister hid his face be
hind his handkerchief, while his who'll
frame shook with suppressed laughter
and full one-half of the assembled PEG
pie, as he glanced around, were quakinG
with laughter not suppressed.
He sat down and held his peace dur

soon as he had gained the open air, oil
his way homeward, he caught his son b.

fore O'Clock Captain Williams and In
spector Thorn of the police served upon

Mr.. Murat Halstead, in writing from

MI. III uIdL Id1StCoOI III Wiling AAOA4
New York, says:
The solid men of New York are of
the opinion that the country is not like
ly to be speedily ruined. There will be q
reduction of revenue. The railroad bus
mess is good. The marvellous resources
of the country were never so well known
to the world as now. Gold is COM
ing from Europe in spite of the
great effort to keep it from
flowing this way. Even the
forced coinage of silver, persisted in be.
yond ell reason, does not stop it. There
is every evidence of prosperity about
New York. The elevated railroads have
made great changes, increasing the val
ue of property that they were reported
to have destroyed, and they are extend
ing the city northward with surprising
rapidity. The theatres, operas and con
certs are all largely patronized. The no
tells are full. The ocean steamers arr
already engaged for the summer.

The temperance people can always
count on the hearty corporation of the
NEWS when they go into square fight
on principle and put forward candidates
who are consistent representatives of

temperance banner too long to lend g

employ high moral issue tor the adj

bearing on the temperance question.

Civility is one of the first laws of civil
lied society. Upon it is based not only
our moral progress but our commercial
prosperity. So well is this recognized
by practical men that merchants make
it one of the essential qualifications of
their clerks and in every ayocation po-
likeness is found to be indispensable to
success.
Courtesy is capital 1t will not alto
gether take the place of money, but it is
a valuable adjunct. The courteous
salesman, other things beiEg equal, Is
the most successful. Thus, when an en-
ploye engages his services to another, he
is in honor bound to bring to his work
an air of civility and respectful de-
meaGor that will produce the best re-
suits.

DErEsTED DUKES.

DETES1,ED DGh ES.O
Many people may think that Dukes.
the murderer Of Capt. Mutt and the Sc
Queer Of his daughter, finds himself
worse or after his acquittal for murder
than if the jury had brought IN a verdict
of guilty.
Dukes is at present cooped up in a
room of hotel at Uniontown, his home,
with the door locked, and one friend
alone stands by him. A committee of
citizens of UnIontown have warned him
to leave the place. So widespread IS
the aversion 10 sueh.a man that the ho-
tells at Harrisburg were obliged TO as
sure their guests that Dukes should not
be received in case he fed thither. The
Pennsylvania Legislature. of which he
was an elected member, have declared
his seat vacant. Dukes himself declined
TO take the seat. No man wishes to
harbor him. or associate with him, Oh
see him. Possibly some one-of reckless
indignation may try to kill him.
lit would seem that any one would pre-
fer death to becoming such an outcast.
And yet what is it that produces suct
fury against Dukes? He killed Capt
Mutt, but other men have been no les
opprobrious murderers and not suffered
such q fate as Dukes. Others hay'
ruined confiding women who have after
ward died under the most terrible cir
cumstances, and still have not stirred NJ
halfihe outcry that follows Dukes.
Fearful as are the crimes of murde
and seduction, their authors, after tn
law has dealt with them, are permitte'
to 20 at large and sink into obscurity
But this man. in his defense against tn
charge of murder, attempted to shift til
responsibility of the original crime upcl
the shoulders of the unfortunate woman
This is what has reused the minds of hi
fellow citizens to rage against hi
crimes somewhat commensurate wit
their hideousness. Such man ca
have no sympathy, nor does he deserv
any, although many another man equal
ly villainous escapes such fate.
