A Clever Catch.

Shortly after s o'clock last night four men
entered the clothing store of Sattler
Brothers, 81 East Third street, and while
three attracted the attention of the clerks
by asking to be shown goods, the fourth
busted himself in slowing away such arti-
cles as he could conveniently secrete about
his person. One of the attaches by chance
observed him slowing away pair of pants
and gave an alarm. Officer Collins pur-
sued the offenders, who were Joined by a
fifth at the door, evidently acting as senti-
mel, the five men running down Third
street. Three were overtaken by Off
Ger Boemer, who joined in the
chase, but the pant fakir was only captured
after n lively run and cautionary shot
from Officer Collins revolver. At the sta
ton house the principal crook gave the
name of Charles johnson. his accomplices
registering as William Dwyer, John Muir
ply and Thomas Foley. The man on watch
outside the door escaped. The men are
tough-looking strangers, and are believed
to be the gang who have been committing
depredations in the southern towns of the
state. The officers did a good piece of
work in eorraling the quartet.

"Get of That Stump"

An old clipping from the Cairo
Democrat of June, 1865, tells the fol-
lowing story: Among the paroled
rebel soldiers who came up on the
steamer Lady Gay on Tuesday was
a man little over seven and II half
feet in height. He started out with
the Missouri troops at the commence
ment of the war, and stuck to them
until the "dog was dead" and never
received O scratch. Soon after he
was mustered into the rebel service
the regiment to which he belonged
appeared before the Colonel on dress
parade, and the Colonel, who
prided himself on the fine appearance
and good size of his men, cast his
eyes along the line with a smile of
self-satistaction until they rested OIL
the towering form Of the tall Missou-
rian, when he knit his brows and
called out in fiercely thunder tones,
"Get off that stump, you impertinent
scoundrel, or I'll order you under
arrest" The soldiers looked at each
other, wondering what the Colonel
meant, but no one moved. Finding
his authority treated with disrespect,
he fairly boiled with rage, and ad-
vancing to the big soldier he exclaim-
ed: "What in the devil are you
standing on ?" The soldier respect
fully replied: "On my feet, Colonel" F"
The Colonel was completely taken
back as he surveyed this tall speci-
men of humanity from head to foot in
blank amazement; he mumbled an
apology for his rude remarks and
hastened away, leaving his men con-
ulsed W ith laughter. "Get off that
stump" became a by-word with the
Missouri rebels, and it will no doubt
live as long as the long Missourian.

DEATH OF GENERAL GRANT.
Rev. John P. Newman, D. D., the
Eero's Friend.

The interesting announcement ia
made that at the funeral service TO be
held over the remains Of General
Grant at Mount McGregor, the Rev.
DIR. Newman, his longtime friend
and pastor, will give to the world,
what it can get in no other way, "a

head of this article, is distinguished

lie was born In the State of New
York in 1896, and is consequently fif-
ty-nine years old. After being ed
ucated at Cazenenovia Seminary he
entered the Ministry of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church. His remark
able talent as Il speaker and writer
soon attracted attention. AT first he
was member of the Troy conference,
but sermon preached at the dedica-
ton of the Hanson Place Church, in
Brooklyn, about twenty-one years
ago, on the Resurrection, led TO his
being called to one of the richest
churches In that city. After filling
several good appointments he was
stationed at the Metropolitan Metho-
dist Episcopal Church of Washing
ton. 1T was here that the warm
friendship between him and General
Grant began, which continued TO the
end of the great soldiers life.
From 1869 to 1874, DR., Newman
was chaplain of the United States
Senate. Later President Grant made
him Inspector of Consulates-an Of
flee created for the purpose. In this
capacity he spent two years abroad
extending his trip through Palestine
When he returned he was placed on
the superannuated list at his own
request, but on the resignation oI
DR.. Davis, of the Madison Avenue
Congregational Church, New York
accepted the pastorate. This connec
ton was severed after a violent anC
prolacted church quarrel. The party
adverse to the employment of
Methodist minister AS pastor of |
Congregational church finally sue
creded In bringing about DR.. New
mans resignation. During con
siderable part of the time during
which the quarrel lasted DR.. Newman
was away in California, where, in
Plotestant Episcopal church at San
Francisco, he delivered a eulogy OF
Leland Stanford, the deceased son o
ex- Governor Stanford for which h,
is said to have received the sum o
ten thousand dollars from the boy

During the Middle Ages, there
was q renowned minnesinger, or
Minstrel, in Germany, to whom birds
and friends were companions He
made them heirs of all his fortune,
which he left to D monastry, with
directions to expeno the income in
grain, to be thrown out to the birds.
As years ran Oh, they seemed to know
their granary, and at the appointed
days, the old monastery, with every
point Of the Gothic chapel, and the
trees around, were vocal with the
thankful notes of the little choristers.
In similar spirit, the peasantry
in Norway, at Christmas. would have
all creation join 10 the general joy,
and most of all the birds On every
house and barn they put up bundles
of unthreshed grain that the little
winged creatures may. like man him
self, find cause for thuDkfulness, and
show his exultaiion aud bis joy.sa
