 BARBARITY OF A sTEPMOTHER. Fiendish Cruelty to I've Children
 Escape of the Criminal.
 JOLIET, H., June 14.-A case of unpara1- leled and fendish cruelty to children has just been discovered in Monee, this county. Mrs Sophia Hinton, of that place, was re- gently arrested by Officer Williams of the Illinois Humane society, charged with cruel ty to child and brought to jail in this city to await trial. It appears from inyestiga- tion that Mrs. Hinton is stepmother to lit tie boy two years old and 8 girl five years old. The little girl begged for food at differ ent houses in the village and told such tale of cruelty at the hands of Mrs. Hinton that it led to an investigation as to the condition of the boy. The little fel- low was found locked up in an out house, where he had been placed by Mrs. Hinton. He was naked, almost dead from starvation and so weak that he could not stand. The child's body was covered with scars and bruises, while gaping wounds otherwise horribly maimed in a manner that cannot be described. He had been SO long without food that he had eaten the grass which grew under the siee of the shed and the hay which formed his bed on the ground.
 IT. IL for 8 moment he was left in the doorway. A dish was on the ground near by out of which the house dog fed. Seeing some scraps on the dish the little fellow crawled to it, and when found 8 moment later he was ravenously eating what the dog had refused. Seeing the lady of the house coming toward him and probably thinking she was his fiend ish stepmother he made feeble outcry and raised his small hands as if to ward off blows. Both children were cared for. The was called to-day in court, when it was found that the woman had escaped. A whirlwind of indignation was at once aroused and the sheriff, who cannot explain the es- cape, is bitterly denounced.

 The surrounding floral decorations were very elaborate, consisting of two massive pillars of daisies, a large cross mounted on a pedestal, anchor, star and many other de- vices, all prepared under the efficient super vision of Mrs Finken and Mrs. Hitchcock The exercise of the infants, under the charge of Mrs. William Preston, was one of the most beautiful features of the occasion, and reflected great credit in this popular lady teacher The music, during the entire day, was under tfe direction of Prof. Jepson and was in the highest degree satisfactory. As is well known, the people of this church and congre- gation have taken upon themselves the task of iquidating the church debt during the present year. The pastor announced yester- day that in all probability at the second jubi- lee pay day, which occurs the first Sundayssin July, it would be his privilege to publicly burn the church mortgage of six thousand dollars. The pastor also gave notice of 8 graduating exercise of the Oxford league connected with the church, to be held on Wednesday evening of the present week when free lunch may be taken, with the exercises, for the sum of one dime.

 Children's Sunday was observed at this pretty little church yesterday, and Rev. Mrs. Hanaford baptized four children, one of them being the infant son of Mir. and Mrs. John Ward Dickinson, who came from Jer- sey City with their babe, that the minister who solemnized their marriage VOWS should also christen their frst-born. Another in fant was the son of MT. and Mrs. John R. Weed, to whom was given the name of the widely honored journalist, Thurlow Weed. The name of the Sunday school superin- tendent was also given to the lovely girl baby whose mother was formerly the pupil of that lady.
 An original hymn by the pastor was sung by the audience previous to the ser mon, which was from the text, "All things are of God" The floral decorations, which were arranged by MT. A. F. Munson, were very fine. In the evening delightful Sunday school concert was held under the direction of the superintendent, Miss Ellen E. Miles, at which, in addition to speaking and singing by the children, there were ad- dresses by the pastor, MT. A. P. Muuson and Mrs Olive Pond Amies, whose children also took part in the exercises acceptably.

UNITED CHURCH.

Never perhaps has ssthe rising sun gilded
 the vernal morn" in all the fresh luxuriance
 of June more fully than it did yesterday. At
 the sound of the church-going bell the public
 Green presented a scene of animation which;
 combined with umbrageous foliage, emerald
 verdure, the songs of the feathered warblers
 and the quiet calm of the Sabbath, must have
 made indeEble impressions on young and
 old in favor of Christian civilization. Pro
 lessor Mather occupied the pulpit of the
 above church. His text in the morning was
 from Romans, 1-16, FI am not ashamed of
 the gospel of Christi for it is the power of
 God unto salvation to every one that be-
 lieyeth, to the Jew first and also to the
 Creek A few of the leading
 thoughts are as follows: Educated in Gdels tell us that while Christianity
 is good for the barbarian and the savage, intelligent and refined people have outgrown it. They tell us it is the product of an un enlightened age, wrapt in the gloom of ig- norance and superstition. But who was Paul2 An educated Jew, versed in Greek philosophy and all the erudition of his day. To whom was Paul writings To the Romans, the cradle of law mistress of the world, dis tinguished above all nations for it's power and wealth. He was not ashamed, although Christianity was yet untried and its leader had been crucified as 8 malefactor. He was not ashamed, although it may have been ridiculed as foolish dream of ! the passing hour, mere bub ubble on the r1ve1 | of time, and moreover he claimed it was a power no less than the power of God, that ! it would unite and save both the Jew and the Greek, the civilized and the savage. It | is boundless, world wide and universal in it's aims and scope. In this respect it over shadows all pre-existing forms of civilization 'fWide as the world is thy command, vast | as eternity thy love-"
 I The Sunday school of this church met il | large numbers at the North church yesterday i afternoon, including the children of the New ! Haven orphan asylum. The pulpit was vel | decorated with flowers and about the plat \ form and tables were plants of rare excel 1ence, altogether making fine display. Dea con E. B.
