A CHURCH SCANDAL.
Tho sensation at Providence. X. T..
Caused by Divorce suit.

Tho sensation Mt Providence. X. L.,
| Caused by n Divorce suit.
A scandal has bean preci pitated in
Providence, Il. l.. by the bringing of :
adsosca suit By Mr. Theodore Foster. a
member OF the Trinity Methodist Epis.
copai church, duplicating his pastor.
Rev. Charles L. Goodell and Mira. Eos.
ter: Mr.. Foster, at the same time. has
resigned his position In the SUNDAY
school Mrs. Foster, as soon as notice
OF the suit was served upon her, took
steps toward bringing CROSS libel for
divorce.
The clergyman In question Ia q hand
some man of 40 and an eloquent
preacher. Six years ago last spring he
came from an obscure parish in Eastern
Massachusetts,, near Now Bedford, and
was assigned to Broadway church, and
three years later to the Chestn ut street
church, where he immed lately sprang
into favor. In his parish was Mrs.
mary i. Foster, pyepossessing lady,
whose husband is Of the man ufacturing
lewelry firm OF Foster Il Bailey. Mrs,
Foster lived in elegant style at the cor
ner OF High and Brigham streets.
The Goodells and Fosters were yerv
intimate, as Mr. Foster was suberinten.
-SAs "a eho SuuNhy bCuOOl ana MIS-, FOe-
ter was prominent In church work
When Mr.. Goodeli was transferred to
Trinity Church the Fosters followed
him, by Mrs. Fosters urgent wish.
Some comment was excited then. but II
was not until q month ago that Mr
Foster discovered that between the
clergy man and his wife, to use his own
words, "There had been conduct that
was simply hellish." The trouble arose
during the summer of 1885, most of
which Mr.. Goodell spant at Mr.. Eos. |
ter.s summer residence at Mount Hone
and as Mr.. Foster was neces ,arily ab.
cent on business the acquain tance be. |
tween Mr.. Goodell and Mrs. Foster he.
came, 1t Is alleged, of the most familiar
nature.
Mr.. Foster has placed his claims for |
divorce in the hands of Walter b. Vim
cent, who immediately filed the neces
sary papers for the suit. Mr.. Goodell |
nfmly asserts his innocence, and has re- |
aimed James M. Ripley as his counsel.
some of the friends of Mr.. Goodell say

Home Happiness.

The road to home happiness lies over
small stepping stones. Slight circum-
stances are the stumbling. blocks In fam.
lilies. The prick of a pin, says the pro-
verb, Is enough to make an empire in
sipid. The tenderer the feelings the
patnfuler the wound. A cold, unkind
word checks and withers the blossom
OF the dearest love, as the most delicate
rings of the vine are troubled by the
faintest bret ze. The misery of life Is
born of chance observation. If the
true history of quarrels, public and pri-
vate, were honestly written, 1t would
be silenced by an uproar OF derision.

Excursion Tickets to the Pennsylvania
state Fair via Pennsylvania Railroad.

The annual exhibition of the Penn
sylvania State Agr icultural Society
will be held at the Fair grounds in
Philadelphia, from September 9th to
the 18th. Since the last exhibition the
grounds have been improved, and the
buildings remodeled and enlarged. Ex-
tensive additions have been made in
the halls used for the exhibition of ma
chinery, and the space devoted to live
stock has been considerably enlarged.
Entries are coming in rapidly, and the
fair promises to be conspicuous sue
cess 10 every department. The machiu
cry exhibit will be large and compre.
hensive, the live stock department will
be unusually good, and the miscellane.
GUS and general departments will
cover a wider field and be represented
by larger display than In any pre-
vlous year. Trials of speed by famous
horses will be one OF the special fea.
lures, and other attractions of various
Kinds have been arranged for each day.
Other States than Pennsylvania will
contribute to the exhibition, and there
is no doubt that the Fair will prove OF
absorbing interest 10 the ladies as we'll
as to farmers, mechanics and business
men.
1no locaClon OF Cn3 grounds on the
line of the Pennsylvania Railroad at
Germantown Junction, makes access
particularly easy from every portion of
