Scenes at His Bedside.

He Passes Peacefully Away at Tive
O'clock Yesterday Morning The
Scenes at His Bedside.
WAsHISGToS, d. c., August 19.-The Post
has information that Judge Jere Black died
at 2 o'clock this morning.
YoRK, Pa, August 19.-Judge jeremiah
Black died at ten minutes past 2 o'clock
this morning. Though not unexpected,
his death was sudden and was a shock to
the community. On Saturday morning he
seemed somewhat better but the improve
ment was too slight to justify hope OF
his recovery.
An UDfayOrable Change
began about o'clock in the afternoon and
he gradually grew worse, but remained
conscious almost until the end, and died
peacefully. From the beginning of his
illness Judge Black believed he would
never recover, and was perfectly resigned.
Mrs. Black, Lieutenant Governor Chauncey
F. Black and wife, Henry Black, Mr.. aud
Mrs. Hornsby, A. B. Farquhar, and Dr.
Meisenhellder were present. Many
kilograms of Coudolencei
have been received. The funeral Will
take place Tuesday at p. m. His remains
will be inferred at Prospect Hill, Dr.
Powers, OF the Chris ian Church Of Wash
ington will probably oliciate at the
funeral.
Shortly before Judge Black died. he said
to his wife: How can fear to cross the
dark river when my Father waits for me
on the other shore" and then added;
Would l were as comfortable about all l
leave behind in this world" and then he
breathed the following
Earnest Prayer.
20! Thou beloved and most merciful
Heavenly Father, from whom had my
being and in whom have ever trusted, If
it be I by will, grant that my suffering end
ard that | spe, diIy be called home TO Tlee;
and ., my God, bless and comfort Taee,

OUT OF WATER.
A Texas Town on the Verge of an
Aqueous Famine.

Aqueous Famine.
GALVESTON, August u This city is on
the verge OF water famine. The cisterps
are drained, the gardens are dried up, and
for week past many persons have been
depending upon the iberality OF their
neighbors for water enough to drink, hav-
ing exhausted their own supplies. Now
most of those who were we'll provided at
the beginning of the dry season are almost
completely without supply. An iudics-
ton of the extreme want to which some
people are driven is found in a notice
posted in front OF one of the best known
and most popular restaurants in the city:
"Closed until it rains"
A slight rain has fallen, but not enough
to change the situation.

FRAlLTIEs OF FEMALES
And the Inats lniquity OF the
Sterner Sex.
A SERIES OF SAD SUNDAY SIN:


New YORK, August 19.-Andrew Hall
OF Brooklyn, son of the late Asa Hall,
well-known hat manufacturer OF New
York, has married a negress Of low charac
ter, named Mary Wood. The young man
father left the family handsome fortune
and the mother has a fine residence on
Chauncy street, Brooklyn. Soon after at
tanning his majority the young man mar
ried a young white woman and started a
small business on Fulton street. He had
never been regarded as very bright, and IN
1878 his mentsl condition became such that
he was formally
Adjudged q AunHffc.
He was sent to an asylum, and after re.
naming there two years was discharged
cured. His wife died and he lived with his
mother. A short time ago he began to re-
main away from his home for long inter
walls.
In the eastern suburbs of Brooklyn is q
negro settlement. 1t is the refuge OF vile
men and women, white, black, Indian,
Chinese and what not 1t is filthy plague
SPOT on the face of the city. The principal
residence is hovel, one. half of which is
underground. 1t is entered by trap door
in the earth. Inside is all that is
Disgusting and Lawless.
Here Andrew met the woman Wood. She
had been twice married, one of her hus.
bands having been sent TO State prison for
life for murder, and finding that the " eak
minded man had some money, she persuad-
ed him 10 marry her. Andrews mother
has begun suit to have the marriage set
aside, on the ground that at the time OF the
marriage Andrew was lunatic and incara-
ole of making any contract. Andrew pro
tests that he is not a lunatlc and says that
he will not be separated from the woman
he loves and would rather lose f2oo,0 than
his black Mary.

New ORLEANS, August l9.-One of the
most brutal murders that has been COM
mitted here for years occurred in a negro
ballroom and gambling hell on Franklin
street at o'clock this morning. For over
a year Kendrck Holland and Anna Glover
both mulattoeS, have been living together
as man and wife. Lately Holland has
shown some irritation at the attention
shown the woman by other colored men.
HIS brutal nature was finally inflamed to
Violent jealousy.
At the time of the tragedy this morning,
the woman was sitting with four or five
negro men, laughing and talking aud
playing cards. Presently Holland came
up and leaned over the table and looked
on. No one paid any attention to him,
and the game continued in this manner,
when Holland suddenly reached back and
drew a revolver, plsced it against the right
side OF the woman's head and pulled the
trigger. The pistol made loud report
and the bullet went
Crashing Through Her Head,
cauhing her brains to spatter all over the

mitting the murder Holland attempted to
escape, but was met at the door by two p0-
licemen and arrested.

We bid the joyous moments haste
And then forget the glitter;
We take the cup OF life and taste
No portion bat the bitter.
But We should teach our hearts TO deem
Its sw weetest drops the strongest,
And pleasant hours should ever seem
To lius.r with us lJugsst.
The darkest shadows Of the night
Are jast before the morning;
Then let us wait for the coming light,
All bodiHg phsntoms seorning.
And while we're passing on the tide
OF Times fast ebbing river,
Let's pluck the blossoms by its side
And bless .hs gracious Giver.
