Mistaken Views of Certain Young People
The Christians Duty and Privilege.
youths Companion ]

youths Companlon.l
The police in Philadelphia recently made
a descent upon an infamous house, and ar
rested twenty-three young girls whom
they found in 1t. OF these, eleven proved
to be shop-girls employed in the cheaper
class of retail houses. A clergyman, hear
ing of this, went 10 the station house the
next morning to try to help them. APP
preaching bright-lool1ing young woman,
he said:
"What possible inducement could you
find to 60 into that terrible placer | see no
temptation in It,"
"No," she said. "But II you had worked
on your feet from seven in the morning un-
Ill eleven at night, for three dollars week,
you would be tempted by a warm, bright
room and good supper. That is what l
drink and dancing. .
"But my church," he persisted, "was
open, warm and lighted, near the shop
where you work. Why did you never
come thereW
"Nobody asked me-" was her snucy re-
ply. ~ was coaxed, almost forced, into
the other house. Most people only 60
where they are invited"
Now there is q good deal Of false
clnp-trap In this answer. There is
not a shop-girl nor shop-boy, nor any
other man or woman who can read
in this country, who does not know that
the fate of his or her soul is the most
serious matter in life. Under all their
work, or fun, or very-day chatter, there
are times when this consciousness comes
home to them with grip like death. 1t is
question which must be answered. They
know, too, that the churches are open, and
that II they choose to enter, they will be
helped to find that answer.
But on the other hand, Christian people
know the habit OF young men and women
to thrust religion out OF sight as gloomy
and vexatious. IL is, therefore, the Chris
tinn,s duty TO show them that II Is neither
the one nor the other; it is their duty, and
should be their pleasure, to bring it into
their daily lives as warmth, and light, and
hope. The homes, clubs, reoding-rooms
and social organizations founded by some
OF the churches for busy poor people,
and for young men and young women
who otherwise would be walking the
streets, or going TO questionable places OF
amusement, help to do this. 1t is moi
enough TO build costly church, rent the
pews, except few of the poorer ones Al
the back, or in the gallery, and leave these
young people and the poor to come into
them or not, as they choose.
The Master bado His servants prepare
the supper, and then finding the guests did
not come, He told them TO ''go out into th,
highways and byways and compel them u
| come in.v

As civilization advances Che man WHIT

OF course the statutes do not furnish law
TO justify the severe punishment Of the man
who picks his teeth with quill, but this is
the result OF oversight rather than leniency
on the part Of our Legislators; for no man
provided with full complement Of nerves
can contemplate the goose-quill barbarian
without feeling strong desire 10 do him
bodily injury. This man, when he has
finished the atrocious work Of lgouging his
teeth, keeps the quill In his mouth and
talks through IL. He also makes some sage
like remark and then sucks the quill as
though he would draw back his words. II
he should be standing, and you should
be occupying q similar position, he
will approach, poke his face under
tho brim Of your hat and whistle his words
in your face. Then he will take out the
quill and flip the corn-bread of the point

Butler the Indiana Wife Murderer, Puts

FORT WAYNE, IND, October TO-
Chas. w. Butler. one of the most noted
criminals in the state of Ohio, son of
DR.. Geo. Butler, a wealthy physician of
Columbus, Ohio, was executed at Co
lumbia City to-day for the murder of
Abbie Butler, his young wife. at
Pierceton, Ind, September 80, 1883.
After his arrest for murder, Butler
was incarcerated in jail at Columbia
City to await trial. During his con-
finement in jail, he succeeded in effect
ing his escape, and for some days was
at liberty, but was subsequently re-
captured. His trial occupied nearly a
month, and all that wealth and in
fiuence could do was done to save
him from the gallows, but with
no avail. Up to last evening he pre-
served a most stoical Indifference as
to his fate, but when advices were re-
ceived last night, that the supreme
court and governor refused to inter
fere in his behalf. Butler broke com
pletely down and wept bitterly. He
asked for Catholic priest to admin
lister spiritual consolation. Father
Pellhake responded and administered
the rites of baptism and absolution.
The prisoner retired at eleven last
night, slept soundly until a. M,
arose, dressed and partook of hearty
meal. The priest called this morning
and remained with the condemned
man until the execution. He
assumed again his stoical attitude and
had very little to say. While the
priest and sheriff were with
him in the cell Butler played several
airs on his ACCORDION, and at 10 O'Clock
took an affectionate farewell of his
sisters. Just before the march to the

CONIANCHE, October 14-Our peo-
pie were startled this morning about
9 o'clock by one NJ. t. Helm coming
to town and giving himself up to the
sheriff, saying he had shot John Har-
ris with shotgun at his farm, three
miles north OF town, a few minutes
before, and left him to come TO town

as he had committed the deed in
self-defense and Harris was
advancing upon him with an AK
drawn. DR.. c. F. Payne, Sheriff Cox
and others left Immediately for the
scene of bloodshed. DR.. Payne re-
turned in short time saying that the
man was dead and that he could not
have lived over three or four minutes
after he was shot. Justice Brown
and number of citizens, including
your reporter, hied themselves to the
spot to hol an inquest and learn the
particulars, which as near as we can
CLEAN are as follows: 1t appears
that the parties had not
been on good terms for
some time, and yesterday Helm made
a gap in the joint fence OF Mr.. Farm
ers and himself, which let the stock
into Mr.. Farmers field, who was living
with Harris. This morning Harris
took an ak and started to fix up the
gap; the next that was known is when
he was found twenty feet from the
gap, dying, with six buckshot in his
right side, aDd Helm was seen by the
first parties that arrived, on his knees
behind the fence with his gun in a
presenting position. Two men were
working in the field and were there
in minute. Circumstances go to
show that it was a cold blooded mur
der. Harris had a six shooter on his
person, but his position showed that
he had made no attempt to use it as
the shot in his right arm showed that
his ak was still on his shoulder when

AT II o'clock the prisoner was hand

FROM PERU.
THE TOWN OF PAITA DESTROYED
BY A TERRIBLE FIRE.
The Flames Carried by a Swift
BreeZe-LOsS Estimat-
ed at 100000

PAITA, PERU, October 1O-A fire
broke out near the plaza last night
and before it could be controlled, fully
one quarter of our beautiful and pros
porous town was laid in ashes. At 9
o'clock at night the great bells of the
cathedral rang out the dread alarm,
calling our frightened citizens to the
scene of the confiagration and every
effort was made to check the advance
of the relentless destroyer, but to no
avail. By midnight the fire. famed
by strong southern breeze, had
spread over several blocks, and at 4
a. m. had consumed everything in its
way from the plaza to the beach. 1t
was prevented from spreading to the
eastward by the large open plaza, and
to the west by the blowing up of sew
eral large houses. The fire engines
were useless, fully two hours having
elapsed after the breaking out of the
fire before they were fairly at work.
The principal buildings destroyed
were Pallets warehouses, the Bishops
residence and institute of Purano, the
SpanishandPortu consulates and
about fifty residences. Loss estimated
at 100000, and may probably prove
much heavier. No insurance.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 14.-The COM
mittee of the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' Exchange, of Baltimore, to
confer with the Pennsylvania railroad
officials, with view of having them
recede from the order cutting the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad out OF New
York business, came to the Exchange
to-day, and had a protracted consulta-
tion with President Roberts, Vice
President Thompson and General So
licitor Stott. The committee had an
explanation, and Ohio's side OF the
situation, and President Roberts dis
cussed it. fully explaining its merits
as viewed by the Pennsylvania COM
pany. He declared that his company
would do and did nothing to impair
the commercial interests of Baltimore,
in which, having three lines termina-
ting there, it has great concern. AS
the position taken by the Pennsylva-
mia company in its relations with the
rival road, had no purpose in aiming a
blow at the Baltimore s. Ohio, seve-
raj members expressed themselves
satisfied with the situation as ex-
planned by President Roberts.

DALLAS, October 10-Two wrecks
occurred last night on the Missouri

Two sections of stock train collided,

The democrats of Dallas have, through

Mrs. F. NJ. Hammond, the noted
confederate spy, known as Belle Boyd,
who has within the past few months
figured conspicuously in several SEN
sational scandals in this city, is again
into another which eclipses all former
ones and is the absorbing topic of the

aged about 16 years, whom she claims

by a prominent young man named
Cotton, clerk in banking house in
this city. Last night he called at the
Hammond home, and Mrs. Hammond
shot him in the left arm, alleging
that he refused to repair the wrong
done the girl by marrying her. The
wound is not dangerous. Mr.. Cotton
denies ever having had any illegiti-
mate relationship with the young lady
and declares it to be case of at
tempted blackmail.
