LANCASTER, Pa, Nov. 8.-Hollinger's g
store at Lincoln was robbed last night, and
large posse started in pursuit of the
thieves, Buzzard and his gang, recently es-
capped from Jail. The thieves were over
taken at Welsh Mountain and fight fol-
lowed. John Clifford, an escaped prison
er, was captured. Abe Buzzard was shot
seriously. Bard, one of the posse, was
shot, probably fatally. The thieves es-
capped.
Clifford was lodged in Jail tonight. He
states that six escaped prisoners are com
,nitting depredations IN the vicinity of the
Welsh mountain. CEfford's time of ar
rest saved him from narrow escape of
being lynched. owing to the shooting of
young Bard. Ropes were provided by

them. The mountain is surrounded to-
night by large posse, and it is believed
impossible for either Abe or his associates
to escape. Clifford revealed the hiding
place and a large amount of stolen goods

star Route.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Merrick con-
tinued his attack upon Dorsey and his de-
fence of Rerdell inithe star rout trial this
morning. He said Dorsey had debauched
Rerdell and then used him for his own
criminal purposes. Scratched and blister
ed by his treatment and convicted in the
first trial while his master escaped, RerdelI
had resolved to tell the truth and seek
safety by throwing himself on the mercy
of the government and he had told the
truth, the whole truth and nothing but the
truth.
Ingersoll in referring to the Chico letter,
said Rerdells own witness had sworn 1t was
written in 1878, and Dorsey was then at
Chico Springs.
Merrick exclaimed that 1t was the last
plank, and the drowning pirates only

Ingersoll, who had become somewhat
excited, shook his finger at Merrick and
retorted: "Rerdell is your last plank and
you will sink with your rotten plank"
The court declared the proceedings out
of order and disorderly.
A lively passage ensued between the
counsel upon reference by Merrick to the

court for protection from the eternal growls
and snarIs of the opposite side. Without
settling the point which hinged upon a

tinguished from one another by some
Deculiar characteristic. OF the many mil
liens of persons now inhabiting the earth,
no two are exactly alike, either IN their
physical appearance or IN their minds.
One man is distinguished by his argumen-
tative style of thought and expression; an

and so on, but III the grandest orations of
parliamentary orators, some words of scrip

the four gospels of the evangelists. They
had known the Savior for the three public
years of his life, had been in constant in
tercourse with him, heard him speak words
of wisdom, and witnessed his miracles,
and yet in writing his biography Matthew
gives what the others do not. Mark gives
less, but he alone tells that Jesus looked
upon the PharIsees with anger; he alone
speaks of the storm at sea, and of the
woman touching the hem of the Savior's
garments. Luke gives the parentage
of John the Baptist, the boyhood
of Jesus, the ascension, the account OF the
good Samaritan, while John differs from
them all more than they differ from one
another. John makes clear his minestry

while John goes to the beginning, saying
sin the beginning was the word'' etc. He
spoke of the sublimity of the psalms and
said no man has ever lived that could not
raise up his soul in every experience of
life by reading the $50 psalms of the sac
red book. He explains the diff
ferant purposes for which the several
books had been written, spoke of the epis-
ties, which leave the church struggling with
too many enemies, and came to Revela-
tions, which he called the capstan of the
Bible. There is organic unity in it from
Genesis to Revelations. Every hand that
wrote it was impelled by the hand of God.
He spoke of the power and wisdom of
Jesus how he COMPOUNDED the doctors of
the law who endeavored to trap him with
difficult questions, which he readily an
swered, not because he got the truth from
patient study. He was the truth. The
boon was precious Inheritance. He
spoke of turning every church into a Sab

THE BIBLE.

Bishop FOSs' Lecture Before the State sam

In Westminster church last evening
Bishop G. D. Foss lectured before the
Sunday School convention on 'The One
Many Word of Cod He quoted Wesley,
Rousseau, Milton. Sir William Jones and
other eminent men in reference to their
opinion regarding the Bible, and said
there are some who assert that if the Bible
be the inspired word of God, there should
be similarity of style, of Divine style, in
the different books composing it, just as
the work of an eminent author, though
publ he'd anonymously, may be recog-
nlzed from similarity to his other
productions. Newton, the great
philosopher, declared that he discovered
more authenticity in the sacred volume,
Notwithstanding its diversity of style, than
in any profane literary work. Every great
movement in history has some fundamen-
tai conception. Christ came to seek and
save what was lost, and for the same pur-
pose did the Bible come. Go back to the
English recorded history, and the very
first chapter in the history of the human
race is our parents flying from before the

Cerdinal McCioskey Not Ill.

New YORK, June 6.-The report that
Cardinal McCloskey is seriously i'll, is pro-
nounced by Vicar General Quinn as wholly
without foundation. The cardinals health,
he says, is as good as usual and except for
feebleness, attendant upon his increasing
years, he would be able to perform all his
duties. He took his accustomed drive this
afternoon in Central park. The rumor of
his illness probably grew out of the fact
that the cardinal had recently executed the
power of attorney authorizing Vicar Gen
eral Quinn and Chancellor Preston to act
for him in the transfer of certain church
property, as already stated in the Western
Associated Press dispatches.

follows the decision made recently by
Judge Sully, of Chicago, in a similar case,
this holds that the trust is not legal one
for reason thai there is no beneficiary
capable of taking and mat therefore the

which was to be devoted to this purpose.
