ST. FRANCIS ORPHAN ASYLUM.
Last Weeks Benefit Entertainment a
 Grand Success.

 Grand Success.
 It may be interesting to those who helped by their patronage or in other ways to make a success of the concert given last Thursday evening at Carl1's Opera House by the chil- dren of St. Francis Orphan Asylum that it achieved results far beyond even the most sanguine hopes of the sisters of the institu- tion. The entertainment was projected, ar ranged and carried out entirely by Rev. Mother Angela and the sisters associated with her in the management of the asylum, and there was u vast deal of hard work i'm posed upon the sisters during the weeks of preparation for the affair. They have the great satisfaction of knowing, however, that their labors have borne abundant fruit in a handsome amount which can be expended in improvements about the asylum which sug- gest themselves as necessities, and for which funds could not be provided except through the efforts of the sisters themselves. Since Mother Angela assumed the management of St. Francis Orphan Asylum a number of such improvements have been made, and in every instance the expense has been as- stunned and met by entertainments like that of last week in which the labors of the sisters themselves and the little ones under their charge have been the chiet fac tor. In all their entertainments they have had the active sympathy and cooperation of the public and the direct assistance of indi- viduals, for which the sisters and orphans are deeply grateful. For this active help in last weeks entertainment the sisters wish to return their heartfelt thanks to the public at large whose patronage helped to make it the financial success that it was; and particu- larly to Mir. Carll, who kindly furnished the opera house Gas in previous years) free of charge; to MT. Shoningsr for the piano used on the occasion; to Superintendent Davis road, who provided free transpor- tation to the children to and from the opera house; and to A. M Seer, of Union Square, New York, whoppresented them with all the printing in connection with the concert, pos ters, programmes, tickets, etc. MT. Seer, Mr. Davis and Mir. Shoninger have been sim ilarly generous in connection with the enter tainments of previous years. To Miss Lizzie O. Gaffney, whose services were voluntary and whose fine singing was so attractive 8 feature of the entertainment, the sisters are especially grateful.
 In this connection too, Mother Angela and the sisters wish to thank the public for their kindness on the occasion of donation day last fall. The contributions on this occasion were mora of 8 substantial and useful nature than usual. the contributors avoiding those delicacies which are of no service in such an institution and substituting therefor articles of practical value. There are at present in the asylum nearly two hundred children who are given home with healthy and pleasant surroundings, and who are thriving, intel lectually, physically and morally, under the tender care of Mother Angela and the good sisters associated with her in the manage ment of the institution.

A Fight and a Prayer Meeting.

The Superior court at Norwich heard last
 week the case against Theron B. Barber, who
 was accused of assaulting Daniel Lillibridge.
 There was quarrel about right of way, and under Mir. Lillibridge's direction work
 men tore down part of MT. Barbers fence.
 MT. Lillibridge claims that Mir. Barber pick
 ed him up and carried him to his (Lilli- bridge's) land and threw him down; that he called him a liar, and that he Qillihridge) might have said: "If I were younger could whip you;" that he picked up a stone and advancing toward Barber assured him Eff he laid hands upon him again he would dash his brains out;" that he thought Barber was praying man and so told him, and Barber replied, 'I have often prayed for you and will now if you will keep still long enough" and thereupon fell upon his knees and prayed for him. Mr. Lillibridge claims that he was thrown down with such force that he was painfully hurt. The Bulletin says: t'The case had such religio-comic aspect that the judge and the spectators were convulsed by the facts, as well as by the action of Nr. Barber, who illustrated with one of his coun- sel how he seized Lillibridge; and who be- gan to repeat the prayer offered for Lilli- bridge as a part of his testimony, and would have completed it had not Judge Stoddard him it was not necessary and request ed him to stop. The jury failed to agree and | were dismissed.0

Charles Dickens and His wife.

Dickens was a genius, and like the
most of that order, was nervous, sensi-
tive, occasionally irritable, sometimes
peevish, always wrapped up largely
in himself and his work, and,
of course, very difficult nus
band to manage. II his wife
had been appreciatiye, loving, devoted
and enthusiastic, she would doubtless
have found the way to make the home
pleasant and tolerable TO both, in spite
Of his iniirmities. But she was the very
reverse of what woman should have
been to make such man happy and con-
tented in his family relation. When the
whole world was crying over David
Copperfeld,' or at least thrilled to its
hearts core with the story, good,

An immortal classic is in danger of be,
.ng expelled from the board schools OF
England. 1t is that wonderful work in
which instruction and entertainment are
combined with unequal skill, the San
ford and Morton" of the famous Mr.
Thomas Day. At present the danger is
afar off and consists only in an appeal
made by correspondent of The Pal
Mall Gazette, not for revised or an ex-
purgated edition, but for the absolute ex-
pulsion of this celebrated masterpiece.

roulng the lielI for Elsie venner.

Those who read The Atlantic Monthly
in 1850 viii remember that the install
,ncnt of the story which describes the
death OF Elsie Vcmcr began with the
tullirg of bell. This numberrf tho
monthly had been looked for in the fem
ily with nervous anxiety.
When it came. the mother and the
daughters dropped everything else and
1eatcd themselves TO listen 10 the reading
Nv ono If the BOYS. The author repre-
scented the church bell tolling or striking
the age of some person who had just
died. and the villagers rs counting the
strokes, with comments as TO all the per
sons sick in the neighborhoOd, AS the
strokes go on to fifteen, sixteen. seven
teen. there are breaks in the narrative.
At each one of these strokes the mother
became more and more excited, and at
last. when the bell struck the age of the
heroine of the story, she said, without
waiting for the reader. Elsie Nenner is
dead am going TO faint" and faint she
did She was sick some days, and the
doctor ruled that no more of the story
should be read to her; but she insisted
that she should hear it to tho end. and
strange as it may seem, the reflections
following the announcement of the
death of Elsie Venner gave her great
comfort and cleared her mind of the
vague superstitions that had haunted her

Sailors Tokens. Charms and Keepsakes.
Sailors, the most superstitious of men,
and oftenest away from Poll or Sue, are
great at love tokens. They wear a

and marked respectively Jack and

symbolical unions to keep their alice.

1T is announced that the sub-com-
mittee Of the House committee on
commerce will recommend the passage
of a comprehensive law regulating the
whole subject Of Interstate commerce.
A prominent feature of the bill will be
q prohibition Of the taxation of COM
mercial travellers. The subcommittee
very sensibly holds that taxes on COM
mercial travellers are simply and only
a means of impeding trade between
the states, and that they should, in
the interest Of the whole people, be
abolished as speedily as possible. This
disposition on the part of the Congress
sloral committee is to be welcomed.
As we have often pointed out, the
only way in which these hindrances
TO commerce can be effectually re.
moved is through the action OF Con
gress. At best such protection as car
