On HIS METTLE.-He was telling it to
his Honor at the Police Court yesterday.
Said he:
"Well, you know, l went home about 1
o'clock in the afternoon. Wife was there.
I chucked her under the chin tender-likc
and, says L:
"Molly, who runs this shanty?'
"And she speaks up very promptly and
says:
"'Samuel, It's a woman about my size,
and don't you forget ito
"'Pshaw y says I.
"'Dead factv says she.
"And chucks her under the chin again,
not quite so tender this time and says:
"'Molly, can do you up in about two
minutes
"And she doesn't wait second to an
swer:
"'Samuel, that's where you are lame.
I'm the better man."
"'Get outn says l.
"'I'll proven says she.
"Well, your Honor, she put me on my
mettle, as it weee. No husband as is hus-
band can stand it to have his wife say she
can wipe the boards with him, and so |
spits on my hands and sails in"
"And you came out ahead ?"
"Well, that's the way I've got it down in
my diary. She gave me two seal p-cuts, a
black eye and six bites, and l loosened
three of her teeth, cut her lip and choked
her senseless. If she goes Dragging around

Bas~ Those who enjoy the example and in
structon ofpious parentsare highly favored
by God. The influence of pious mother
over her children is very great The human
heart rarely reaches that degree of hard
ness and rarely makes such progress in ma
licious wickedness that the example Of a
pious mother is forgotten or her prayers and
instructions wholly neglected. The impress
sion still remains if for no other purpose
than to arouse a sleeping conscience. The
most instructive lessons many Of the great
and good men of the world in all ages ever
learned, were those taught them by their
mothers, when they were prattling children.
1t was between their mothers knees that
they learned the great cardinal doctrines of
the Christian religion. 1t was there that
they learned the Bible doctrine of original
sin and actual transgression. 1t was there
they learned to love the Saviour. How
thankful should those children be who have
piOus parents.

THE GIRL WHO GETS LEFT.-1t may be
set down as an absolute truth that when a
respectable young man desires the acquain-
tance of one who may some day be his wife
he does not go out on the street and seek to
make that acquaintance by filtration; in di-
rect opposition, such one he would not
marry under any circumstances. The filrt-
ing girl should bear in mind that she IS the
bv-Word among them with whom she f1irts,
and that the prolonged indulgence of her
folly will but serve to fasten a stigma upon
her name which will long outlast her years
of indiscretion, and will cause her to be

knowledge of her former eputation.-P Pits

Old man Underwood would have defied

to treat with the party outside, and he final

anyone if Jessie were really dead.
Seven of the men entered the house, and
one of them lifting the cloth from Jesse Un-
derwood's face identified him as the dread
ed outlaw. Old George Underwood sat on
the bed, watching them. His little grand
daughter nestled beside him, holding his
hand. The invading party disguised their
voices, but the old man recognized one of
them and called him by name. With an
oath the brutal ruffian stepped up behind
Underwood and emptied both barrels of his
shotgun into the defenseless mans body.
He fell forward into the arms of his grand
child without groan, and with jest and a
wild hurrah the murderers fled from the
house.
For the time being hostilities were sus-

THE NEWS AT WASHINGTON.
Meeting OF the Cabinet-The President Is
sues "A Proclamation.

No event since the election of Cleveland has
created such a sensation in Washington as the
death of Hendricks. Tho President was just sit
ting down to dinner when a telegram was hand
ed him conveying the startling intelligence
The President was greatly shocked at the news
and at once sent the following to Mrs. Hend-
ricks:
aThe sudden and lamentable death of your
husband excites my profound sympathy for you
in this hour OF your great bereavement, ana !
sincerely mourn the loss OF ono so lately asso-
cated with me in the execution OF the peoples
highest laws, while the nation mourns the loss
of an honored citizens and n faithful public SER
want" .
At Cabinet meeting it was decided that the
President and the members OF the Cablnet
should attend the funeral OF the Vice Pres1-
dent When the Cabinet adjourned, the Prest-
dent issued the following:
"ro the People OF the United States
"Thomas A. Hendricks, Vice President OF the

and honor TO his State and to the United States,
It is ordered that the national flag be displayed

peint. He possibly lacked, somewhat OF the
nerve necessary to manage great army, while
as a corps commander he was unequaled.
NefD York Tyibune.-Of conciliatory ways and
winning manners, Mr.. Hendricks was probably
the most popular man I'm his party, and came
the nearest to representing its true views and
honest wishes. The fact alone had much to do
with the repeated defeat Of his efforts TO secure
a presidential nomination, as the time had not
way open TO success with a candidate who pre-
sented no aims other than those popular with
the masses of the party.
NelU York SuJL-There was no eccentr1city and
no compromise in his political ideas. The doc
trines of jefferson and Jackson were his doc
trnes and he held fast TO the traditional states
manship of his party. He belonged to the people,
and knew nothing OF that pharisaic and feder-
alist pretension which holds them in distrust
and contempt His political speeches We're
filed with this spirit, and, like his forensic
breadth, elevation, vigor of reasoning, and
catholic comprehensiveness.
NeiO York Tfnes.-Mr. Hendricks was type OF
the sincere and earnest partisan Democrat, OF
upright personal character, and considerable
Abilities whose sympathies were too marrow,
and his views too restricted to permit him the
place in political history to which he aspired.
Chicago TTibu1e.-Mr. Hendricks was esteemed
| by all who knew him personally as q man OF
upright character and genial nature, being
possessed of many social graces and remarkable
for his attractive qualities of mind and heart
BY the mere force OF his personal character
and his success in making friends he had OBJ
tanned prominence in the politics OF his own
State which probably no man, with the single
exception Of Oliver Morton, ever possessed be-
fore or since.

found himself the owner of 40, 900 acres in
Northern Ohio, which he sold to actual set
tiers on the most liberal terms as regarded
payments, He reserved for himself a
country seat near Hicksville, which he still
holds, and where he resides part of each
year. In 1S45 he was elected
to the State Senate of Ohio. Here
he opposed Alfred Kelley, leader of
the Wings in that body, and brought him
self into wide repute thereby. In his Off
cial action he evinced such knowledge of
the finances of the State that he was strong
ly urged for Governor by leading Dem
ocrats. In 1848 he was a delegate large
to the Baltimore Convention. In 1850
after the close of his term in the State Sem
ate-he was elected member of Congress
from the Toledo District, and re elected in
1852, and was the Chairman of the Com
mittee on Claims of that body. In 1853 he
was elected by the Board of Fund Commits
sioners the Financial Agent of the State of
Ohio to reside at New York City. In 1856
Mr.. Edgerton was Chairman of the Ma
tional Democratic Convention at Cincin-
natl. In 1859 he was very appropriately
appointed by the Ohio Legislature one of
the committee to investigate frauds upon
the State Treasury, and made an elaborate
report, exposing the frauds and their au-
thors. In 1857 he removed to Fort Wayne,
but retained his citizenship in Ohio
until 1862. Two years later he was
q delegate t-large to the Chicago
Convention. In 1859, in connection with
Tie late rliny uUagland and Hugh McCul-
loch Qate Secretary of the Treasury, he
became lessee of the Indiana canals, and
then general manager. In 1868 he was
nominated on the ticket with Hon. T. A.
Hendricks for Lieutenant governor of In
diana, and was defeated by less than 1000
votes. He declined the nomination of the
O'Conor Democrats for Governor in 1872.
BY appointment of Ex-Governor Porter,
Mr.. Egerton is now a Director of Purdue
University. He has been engaged in many
successful business enterprises, is in easy
circumstances, and is practical student of
public affairs. He is a man of such high
integrity that he paid over 100000 to the
creditors of his brother-in-law some years
years ago, although his legal obligation was,
at the outside, 100000. He was for many
an intimate friend and associate of Chief
Justice Waite, who, with Senator Henry B..
Payne, Governor Gray of Indiana, Vice
President Hendricks, and many leading
citizens of Ohio and Indiana, warmly in
dorsed him as possessing qualities peculiarly
fitting him for the work of the Civil Ser
vice Commission. He is in fullest SYM
