The fact that there is dispute between
the party OF police officers and the four cit.
liens with them, as to whether the Woke.
naeur robbers took the P, W. & X. track at
the ferry, or crossed the river, has provoked
considerable interest and discussion. All
people with the welfare and good name Of
the city at heart are especially anxious the
thieves should be captured and made an
example Of and this anxiety has produced
the lively interest and discussion.
A young man named Shepherd saws he
met four men coming down the p, W. & X.
track about 1 o'clock, as be went up Shep-

near the water works and viewed them with
some little suspicion from the fact that they
had some small bundles, which he could not
see distinctly. These may or may not have
been the burglars, as other men seem to
have passed down the track.

Burial of Thomas Smith.

Tie funeral Of Thomas Benton Smith
took pace from the First English Lutheran
Church yesterday, and was very largely at
tended by the many friends of the deceased
Rev. f. Fl. Dornblaser, pastor, had charge
of the services, and spoke from lisa 3j:lO-
And the ransomed of the Lord shall re
turn, and come to Zion with songs and ever,
lasting Joy upon their heads They shall
obtain Joy and gladness, and sorrow and
signing shall flee away" The choir of the
church rendered few appropriate selec
tons feelngly.
The deceased was born in GAINESVILLE, O.,
October Is, 1885, and removed with his pa
rents to this city when young, where he died
December y, 1884. In 1856 he was mar
ried to Miss Josephine X. Beck. Their union
was very happy one, and was blessed b.
the birth OF seven children, four of whom
with the widowed mother mourn his loss.
In 1866 he united with the church of his
choice, and in 1869 he was elected By the
congregation as an elder, and from that dat,
10 the time Of his death, he was continually
retained as an officer of the church.
His pastor paid well deserved tri

In England it is considered great thing
to belong to the nobility and 10 have in
your veins what is called noble blood.
But it often happens that the blood Of a
nobleman is not as good as that Of the Wig
orous man who takes care Of the nobleman's
cows aud pigs. Truly noble blood is that
which is enriched with iron, and cireulates
in healthy bodies. The Rev. W. B. Smith,

land that joined him., and went on,

acre, and growing poorer all the time.
New methods are now in vogue. More
grass is raised on a single acre, in
some cases, than was formerly raised
on six or ten acres in the first case
paying a profit, and in the other not
paying expenses. What is true of
grass would be equally true of many
other crops. Some years ago vol
ume was published on Ten Acres
Enough, and we have often thought
it would be better for many farmers
if they could only come to, realize
that if they would attempt to Guilt
vate less land, and cultivate it well,
they would soon be fully convinced
of the wisdom of such course. Few
farmers, except market gardeners,
have fully demonstrated what may
be obtained from an acre of land. We
call attention to this subject in gen.
eral way, and advise all who have
any doubts on the subject to take a
trip to some town near large city,
and see what the market gardeners
get from their land.

CURE FOR Poison IvY-While at
Quiogue, L. l., few weeks ago, the
writer happened to become quite Sc
verely poisoned with the common
three-leafed poison ivy (rhus toGicon-
dendron). The common remedy for
this is, we believe, sweet spirits of
nitre, and some use the oxide of zinc.
DR.. John Marshall, of the University
of Pennsylvania, who was at Quiogue
for a week or two on vacation, gave
the writer a recipe which is not gen
orally known. His wife's father, who
is also a well-known physician, found
out the remedy, and used it with sue
cess. 1t is this: Carbolic acid, one
half drachm; bi-sulphite of sodium,
three drachms distilled water, six
ounces to be used as a wash. The
bi-sulphate of sodium must be fresh,
as it loses much of its virtue in a
week or two. Some others also used
this mixture with great success. 1t
is far the best known, and cures the
worst cases in few days.

THE HEALTHFULNEss OF MILK
A medical authority says if any one
wishes to grow fieshy, a pint of milk
on retiring at night will soon cover
the scrawniest bones. Although we
see good many fieshy persons now
a-days, there are great many lean
and lank ones too, who sigh for the
fashionable measure of plumpness,
and who would be vastly improved
in health and appearance could their
form be rounded with good solid
flesh. Nothing is more coveted by
thin woman than a full figure, and
nothing will arouse the ire and pro-
woke the scandal of the ssclipper
build'' as the consciousness of plump
ness in a rival. In the cases of fe-
yer and summer complaint milk is
now given with excellent results.
The idea that milk is feverish has ex-
ploded, and is now the physicians aid
in bringing through typhoid fever
patients, or those in too low state
to be nourished by solid food. 1t is
mistake to skip the milk pitcher.
Take more milk and buy less meat.

ABIDING IN CHRIST.

In Christ is fulness of life of which
a believer becomes a partaker through
a vital union and fellowship. The
radiance of His love and presence is
a UNIVERSAL blessing, but as redemp-
tive force His love must be appro-
priated by personal faith that OPP
ems the heart to its cleansing, fructi-
flying power. Abiding in Christ is
the assurance of the believers spir-
itual life, and the persistency and
strength of this union is the measure
of possibilities of growth and useful
ness. Only as we abide in Him, and
He in us, is there hope. In how
many ways we learn this lesson of
everyday experience, that without
Him we can do nothing Our strength
is perfect weakness. We sometimes
resent this humiliating conclusion,
but the efforts we put forth in the
pride of self-dependency often teach
us the most bitter lessons of failure.
Christ and self cannot at the same
time be controlling force in this
life. The joy and blessing of His
presence is never the heritage of a
divided heart. When the world spirit
asserts supremacy, the conflict will
not admit of neutral decision.
In infinite tenderness of patience,
the love of God in Christ is shown
in the compassion with which He
meets us after our wanderings, our
failures, our disappointments, and
bids us find in Him the sources of
abiding hope and strength. Tears
of penitence and the conscious sense
| of weakness and unworthiness are
messengers that find ready entrance
to the audience chamber of His love.
Abiding in Christ is the assurance
of safety and shelter, but not of free
dom from the discipline of trial. Nay,
the Master, as He walks in the vine
yard, applies the pruning knife most
frequently the branches that lie in
the full exposure of the sun, and give
signs of largest promise in fruitful
ness. He knows that it IS best that
the keen blade should cut away many
a stem and leaf with it's beauty of
growth, in order that it may bear
more fruit. The vines that IN the au-
tumn hang heavy with rich clusters
of grapes are those that have. been
most carefully pruned.
The processes of discipline are fol-
the moment grievous. 'sNeverthe-
less, afterward it yieldeth the peace
able fruits of Righteousness unto
them that are exercised thereby. .
Disappointments chasten the heart
and make it "meet for the Masters
use." Sickness teaches the lessor
of dependence, and opens the foun.
tains of sympathy for those who suf.
fer. Bereavements loosen the affec.
tons from worldly objects, and guide
the soul in its need to a more salts
flying knowledge of Christ and the
heavenly home and rest.
"Abide in me- These words OF
Jesus are full of comforting ant
