New YORK, Jan. S-A great deal of curl

of Miss Helen II. Gardner, the protege and

young lady lsctured to a fair audience
at Chickering hall. Col. Ingersou pre-

two hours. Her lecture was an attack
upon the bible and the Christian re-
ligior. She said that the Christian religion
was wicked, unjust, unreasonable, cowardiy,
and Infamous. She used these expressions:
"a religion which says that we should be mis-

that says that believing vice is holier than uIl-
believing virtue is wrong. [ do not believe in
a religion which sends Emerson and Charming

A GEORGIA EPISODE.
In Defense CT Her Honor a Woman
Blows q Hams Head Off.

Blows . Mans Head Off.
MONROE, Ca, Jan. S.-Three sharp reports
Of rifle accompanied by the shrek of a
woman aroused the quiet citizens of Center
VILE The reports came from the residence
OF Mrs. Whitley. People rushed there and
were Mortified to find the dead body of a man
lying across the threshold, the top of his
head completely blown off, while his flesh
was still quivering with the last
spark Of life The blood was flowing
in great streams around his shoulders, while
at some distance off lay the upper half of the
dead mans head.
Inside, Mrs Whitley stood wild and frantic
just leveling her gun for another shot, when
one Of her neighbors jumped to her side, and
knocking the weapon downward in time to
send its message Through the floor, exclaimed
';Aly God, what is the matter?" "Unhand
me-" she cried, wildly, II will never submit.
He clonched her firmly in his grasp, and soon
convinced her that she was in the hands of
friends, when she told the story of the
tragedy.
The man was John W Deall, young man
OF high character, whose standing in the COM
munity was of the best. While Mrs Whitley
Was engaged in her household duties, Dealk
came in and placed his arm around her waist.s
She repulsed him with a slap in the face. He
grasped her again, when, by a vigorous eff
fort, she loosed herself from him and ran out
and around the building, closely pursued by
her asSaiiant. She then ran into the house
and seized rifle that had been left her by
her late husband. She brought it to bear,
and fred as her pursuer had reached the door.
The community is loud in its praises Of the
brave yvo!nanS defense Of her virtue.

the Story OF Hts Ransom.
BosToN Mass, Jan S.-~The Globe pub
fishes special from New York, giving
what it alleges to be true story OF
the recovery Of Stewards body. The cor
respondent who claims to speak on high
authority, says Judge Hilton woke up to the
peril of refusing to negotiate with the rob-
bers in the fall of 1851, when one
of his servants. happening to so out
OF the door at night. discovered some
mon at tho foot of g long ladder
that was erected against the side of the
mansion. They Immediately fled, and he
alarmed the household. At the top of the
ladder a window was open, the window OF
the room where slept Judge Hlton's
7-year-old son. Then came an an
onymous letter: "You were in time
last night; next time you viii be too
late" Hilton yielded to Mrs. Stewards view
of the case, and negotiations We're reopened.
There was a good deal of shrewd bargaining
as to the actual sum Of money to be paid, and
at last the sum of $780, 900 was fixed on, the
thieves insisting on getting the money in
hand before deliveri g the body The place
selected for the delivery was a small bare
hill i'll WestcheSter county, commanding
the approaches from every side. The direc-
tons to Judge Hilton ran virtually thus:
''We will be there at + O'clock Sunday morn
ing with the body. You send one man
unarnled ON foot with $4,000 for u.s.
When he has given us the money
we will leave him in possession of the
body" The programme was actually carried
out. A piucky servant of the late Mr.. Stew
art was selected to complete the purchase
He walked to the top of the hill and was
examined for weapons by masked men,
who then accepted the money and de
parted, leaving the torneuted body be-
hind them in trunk. While the nego-
tiations were pending the Williams proved their
identity by sending to Judge Hilton piece
of paper exactly the size and shape of the
pieces of zigzag cloth they had cut from the
lining of the rifed coffin they had left behind
them in the Stewart vault.

alton, the Standard Oil company, is
reported to be anxious to purchase
some navy yard property. The plan
for rebuilding the navy is liable to as
sumo considerable prominence. Re-
vision of the tariff if attempted, will
call into the field various interests rep
resenting enormus capital, and there
are various other schemes on foot, any
one of which may be reasonably eX-
pected to develop more or less legisla-
