If Bangor people do not patronize shows,
they attend church socials. The last one, a
chicken pie social, given 10y the Congrega-
tional society. was well attended, netting
about so.
Shows are not patronized very well here

bell ringers. and concert two evenings be-
fore mustered but thirty.
We have two undertolers in town, j. Sher-
rod and y. Todd. Todd rented a building OF
Sherrod for shoe shop, and placed in the
window a card saying he would attend to all
calls pertaining to the undertaking business,
seeing which, Sherrod came into the shop
and ordered the card 10 be taken down or
the shop vacated. Rather small we think.

With arms outstretched, Gods angels said
Welcome 10 heavens home, sweet home"
To-day she is at home, we are away from
home; she is at rest, we must toll ON; she is
at peace, we are disturbed; she smiles, we
weep: she is full of Joy, our hearts are
heavy with sorrow. Oh this earth will be
poorer 10 you who remain, but heaven Will
be richer; to-day you are transferring treas

break through and steal. And to-day /

we all shall m9et again.
'.There Is no death The stars go down
TO shine upon some fairer shore,
And bright in heavens jeweled crown
They shine for eyermore.
There is no death! The dust We tread
Shall change beneath the summer showers,
To golden grain mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flowers"
There Ia no death The leaves may fall,
The flowers may fade and pass away
They only wait through wintry hours
The coming of the May.
Walks DER the earth with silent tread,
He bears our best beloved away,
And then call them dead.
He leaves our hearts all desolate,
He plucks our fairest, sweetest flowers
Transplanted into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
The brdlike voice, whose joyous tones
Make glad this scene of sin and STRIFE,
Sings now in everlasting song
Amid the tree of life.
And when he "a smile too bright,
or hearts too pure for faint and vice,
Tie bears them 10 that world OF light,
To dwell in Paradise.
Born into that undying life,
They leave Us but to come again;
With Joy welcome them-the same
Except in sin and pain.
And ever near US, though unseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread,
For all She boundless universe
Is life-there no dead!

OLD TINE METHoDIsTs.-From Rev.
DR.. Edwards speech at Lynchburg we
take as follows: THE preachers were
,amenab BILE to old Methods customs,
habits aud usages; class-meetings were
kept up with stringent punctualIty; fast
ing aud abstinence were observed on the
Friday preceding each quarterly meeting;
tickets 10 lovefeasts were regularly given
10 church members; aud, under lmlta-
tiCn>, to others than church members:
piaiutss in attire was stricly enforced ard
aud observed indeed, time would I'll
me TO enumerate all the distinctive fea-
lures Of the times, as they prevailed
among the Nfethodists fifty years ago;
aud yet, 50 noiselessly have the %iunova-
tons and changes taken place that they
seem to have attracted comparatively lit
tie attention.
"Aa orgaa 10 a Methodist house OF
worship fifty years ago would have broken
up any society in Virginia or North Car

LIES SURDENs.-A large part of LIES
burdens are self-imposed and wholly need
les. Fears of calamities which never
happen, a doleful habit Of looking at the
worst, a suspicious disposition, a jealous
turn OF mind-these are the tyrants that
loal Us with burdens heavy 20 bear and
needless to carry. If we should no. estly
examine the various burdens of our lives,
we would be surprised to ind how many
Of them are Of this character. Not only
may we drop them if we will, but justice
to others demands mat we should. \
man or woman habitually unhappy is es-
sentially selfish. and is always a thorn in
the community. There are enough
crosses and trials 10 life which must be

and needless ones; and the more thor

more energy and spirit we can bring to
bear upon the former.

TIM.-St. Louis, November lS.-A dra-

day at St. Michael's Church. Father
Schaefer was about marrying Edward
Amiens and Louise Carroll. when the Ger
emony was interrupted by a handsome
Young girl who, fell at the feet of the
priest, and begged him not to marry
them. Her appearance was more like
maniac than a sane person. She said
the bridegroom had betrayed her, and
promised to marry her, and she had re-
ceIyed his promise so late as a few days
AGO. Her disheveled hair, agitated man
ner and heart-broken sObs won the SYM
pathv Of all present. The bridegroom
turned pale, and when questioned ac-
knowledged the truth of the girls state
ments. The bride tainted, and when
She recovered she clasped her lover and
kissed him repeatedly, saying, Il will
have him; IL live with him anyhow
The young girl who made the charge gave
the name Of Virginia DeMattox. Tie
ceremony was declared off, and the priest
consulted his superiors. Subsequently
the faitbless lover married Miss Carroll,

Edward Guild, F~renchmen, arrived here
on Sunday last and went to an immi-
grant boarding house. This afternoon
Louis shot his brother in the head, and
then, putting the weapon 20 his own
head, died almost instantly. The broth
ers came from Canton, Ohio, with the
intention OF returning to their native
place. On Sunday Edward went out
with $l55 in his pockets and got drunk
and lost the money, or was robbed. 1t
is thought that the loss eff the money
