pos tors, beggars by occupation, or not needy,
many of whom had heretofore received aims
from relief and charitable organizations.
Employment had been found for IS cases,
men, 3 boys, and 0 women. Thirteen de-
serving cases upon the edge of want were, by
visiting, sympathy. and encouragement and
friendly advice, helped to make strong fight
for self support. For z the aid of churches
was secured. Medical attendance and medi-
cines were obtained for number of SICK and

THE MURDERER MINER.
He SIoutly Declares That He Was Not in His
Right Mind When He Killed His Wife.
Flowers brought TO His Cell Daily, and
lie is Prepared for the Event.

"Yes; there arc only nine days between life
and eternity with me-" said Frank Miner,
tho colored wife murderer, to a REPUBLICAN
reporter yesterday afternoon. "Still there is
u bright side to everything, and have hope
yet II the law would do me justice the
sentence would not be carried out"
"How is that2" asked the reporter.
Because, at tho time the deed was com nit
ted was out of my head. A giddiness came
over me. and don't remember how got the
razor or how / cut her. have always been a
peaceable man, and never carried a weapon
in my life."
Are you prepared to meet death, if neces-
ary ?' asked the reporter.
"Yes, sir l have no fears of the future.
Rev. Mr.. Gibbon, of Zion Baptist church,
comes to see me every day; then, members OF
the colored Young Mems Christian associa-
tion and St. Pauls church also visit me regu-
larly and pray with me. spend much time
reading religious matter, and am fully pro.
pared for the ordeal if it comes"
Miner having stated that he was 90 years
of age, tho reporter replied, THAT is just
my age"
condemned man, but not in tho same FIX
Miner has decorated his cell with pictures
and other little fancy articles. Yesterday a
pretty bouquet Of flowers graced his grated
cell window, and filled the little apartment
with fragrance. Miners mother and sisters
visit him nearly every day, and stay with
him several hours. If the action Of the court
in banc Is unfavorable to Miner to-day, the
Jail authorities will at once begin to make
preparations for the hanging. The con-
demned man is 90 years Of age, and was born
near Fredericksburg, Va. He is rather
short, and of a light color, with monstache
which becomes a handsome face.
remarkable coincidence in connection
with murders in the district is that within a
month of every hanging here murder is
committed, and another murderer is confined
in the Jail to take the place of the one about
to be hanged. Gen. Crocker said last even
ing, 1--WE are never without murderer"
Next Sunday holy communion will be ad-
ministered to Miner in the rotunda of the
Jail by the pastor of st. Paups NJ. L. church.
Miner has invited the entire congregation to
be present, and feels much interest in the
event, which, ho says, will remind him of the
good old church days" He was church
membor in good standing, and always bore
an excellent reputation. The officers of the
jail speak in the highest terms Of him since
his incarceration of over year.

with him on behalf of the suffering wives
and little children made wretched and des-
titute by rum.
Several incidents Of want and desttution
were given by the workers, where in every
case the sorrow was directly traceable to rum.

tive testimony of the success of prohibition
in his state, and said it would not be long
until Maine would have constitutional pro-
hibition. The meeting was very enthusiastic,
and will meet again next Wednesday at 1870
