The older children went with us to church
that morning. The little church was very
still and pleasant, and somehow the service
stole away down into my heart. 1t was nc
eloquent preacher that we heard; only a
plain man, with Gods plainest gifts of mind
and culture. But the day was real to him,
and I listened 4 bit of Mrs. Brownings
music kept singing itself in my soul:
Iprase thee while my days go on,
love thee while my days go on;
Through dark and dcarTh, through fire and frost,
With eniptied arms and treasure lost,

the old, old cry: blessed be the name of the

We stopped after church together where
the boy was lying, to let May lay down her
little green wreath, and I was glad that she
could do it calmly. Somehow 1 felt as if
tears would be proclamation just then. Then

A HUMBLE THANKSGIVING.

We cannot show a grand array
OF toothsome things Thanksgiving Day
The day SO very near;
Our little pantry will not boast
Delicious viands by the host
To every palate dear.
Meath weight of all the good things known
Our little table will not groan,
No, not the very least;
Our little home will not be blest
With many q welcome, joyous guest
To help us at the feast.
Yet, notwithstanding what we lack,
Well not regretfully look back
And sigh for better days;
But we will fill in every part
The spacious store rooms Of our heart
With gratitude and praise.
Wen count our present blessings DER,
And we shall find they number more
Than all our trials do;
Our happy, thoughtful hearts shall be
Delightful guests-right royalty
They will reward us, too.
TO seats we once did occupy
Wen not look up with wistful eye
And co~etous unrest;
But bending low down our gaze
10 poorer homes, to sadder ways,
Thank God we are so bleSt.
Thank God that though our home is small
1t still contains the dear ones all,
Rich in affections wealth;
Thank God we have enough to eat,
Thank God for clothing warm and neat,
Thank God for perfect health.
Thank God we feel the fires warm glow,
While many cold and fireless go
In many a cherries home.
Oh, yes, most gratefully wen lift
Our souls to God for every gift,
And trust for all to come.
Thus round our frugal little board,
With cheerful hearts well praise the Lord
And keep the jubilee;
Nor shall there anywhere be found,
Within this nations utmost bound,
A happier family.

An Astonishing Yield of Oats.

There was reunion at the Louisiana Hotel,
Saturday, of Messrs. Montgomery and Bettys,
lucky holders OF Capital Prize tickets in the
Louisiana State Lottery. Here were two men
whose combined wealth only a short time
ago wac only few hundred dollars; now ii
reaches high in the thousands in valuable
real estate which they purchased with the
money they drew, respectively, in the draw
inRs of April, 1881, and November, 1885. Mr..
Montgomery, who invested 50, 500 In desir
able farm one mill from Mt. Sterling, in
forms us that he r'i,ed a good crop last year,
consisting of 1000 pounds OF tobacco, for
which he has l. al offered ~ cents per
pound; 500 busbel NJ corn; and from two
bushels of new V riety of oats (Which he
procured in Phils ielphia) sown on three
acres, harvested 200 dozen bundles. As
many as twenty-seven stalks sprouting from
one grain, some measuring five feet in
length, the heads alone measuring two feet.
Some idea of the value of these oats may be
formed, when we say that Mr.. NJ. was offered
$66 for his last years product. He has six
teen acres sown this spring. The value Of
Mr.. Montgomery's last years products may
be safely estimated at 81, 600. In addition TO
his Blue Grass farm, he purchased valuable
tract of land in Robertson, on which his
brothers are raising matchless crops OF to-
bscco, besides other products. And the
splendid possessions of these men were Sc
cured by the investment of 81 in the
Louisiana State Lottery Surely the old
maxim, Truth is stranger than fiction"
holds good in these instances.-Mt. Olivet

Anarchists Jailed.

ST. LOUIS, May 2S.-The anarchists, f. H.
Bergemann, Martin Frank, Otto Fricke and
Gottleib Jaborosski, for whom warrants were
issued yesterday, were arrested to-day and
jailed to await trial on the charge of having
melted and urged the adoption of, at an I'M
lawful assemblage, resolutions indorsing the
actions of the anarchists during the Hay
market riot in Chicago. 1t had been stated
previously to their arrest by detective who
was working on the case that these men
knew more concerning the whereabouts of
the noted Chicago agiiator, Parsons, than
they cared to reveal. This detective states
that he knows positively that Parsons
passed through a small town in Northern
Kansas soon after the riot, with the inten-
ton of escaping to Canada, but was obliged
to change his course on account of the seri-
Gus delay to travel by washouts on the rail-
roads, and started for the South, passing
through this city on the way and comforting
with his brethren while here. If this should
prove to be the truth of the matter the ar
rests made here to-day are important, and
tends to substantiate the statement tel
egraphed from Florida that Parsons had
been seen there, presumably on his way to
Cuba

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Death of the Wife of Ex-senator George III.
PendIeton in New York City.

New YORK, May 20.-Mrs. Alice Pendleton,
sixty-one years of age, wife of ex-senator
George H. Pendleton, OF Ohio, and present
Minister to Berlin, was thrown from her
carriage while driving in Central Park this
afternoon. The result was compound frac-
ture of the skull and conclusion of the
brain, from which she died ten minutes
after the accident.
Mrs. Pendleton came from Berlin less
than two months ago with her daughter,
Miss Jane Francis Pendle ton to attend the
funeral of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Frank
Pendleton, who lived at No. los East Thirty
fifth street. Since the funeral OF young
Mrs. Pendleton the old lady and
Miss Jane had remained with Mrs.
Pendleton's son, who is a well known
lawyer Of this city. 1t had been their prac-
tice since coming to New York to take a liv-
cry on Thursdays. Following this custom,
they engaged Victoria and drove this after
noon. As they we're proceeding through the
Central Park the horses became unmanaga-
bic and ran away, dragging the driver from
his seat. The park police affirm thai when
the horses bolted, the ladies be-
coming frightened, lesped from the
carriage, one from each side.
The Park officer who first reached her
found her dead. The daughter, little dis
lance away, lay unconscious upon the
ground. She was taken up and carried to
the Presbyterian Hospital. The body OF
Mrs. Pendleton was borne to the Arsenal
Station in the Park, aud thence after an in
quest to the home of her son. The verdict
of the Coroner's Jury was in accordance with
the facts stated and exonerated the driver
who had been arrested. The young lady's
condition at II o'clock tonight was still that
of inconsistencies with doubts as to her re-
covery.

about - O'Clock the next day.
At noon precisely the father knocked at
the door of the nuptial chamber and invited
the Young people to come to deieuner with
him. The husband, who was apparently in
high spirits, accepted, but asked his wife to
go on without him, promising that he would
follow Immediately.
Time passed, and o'clock struck, then 2,
but yet no sign of the bridegroom. Getting
alarmed, the wife and her father went to look
for him, and had Just reached his house
when a cab drove up, followed by crowd of
people. Dreading misfortune, the bride
rushed to the cab and looked in, and the
next moment, uttering cry Of horror, she

On seat in the cab lay the body of her

despair and has to be constantly watched
lest, like her husband of day, she should
also commit suicide.

CHICAGO ANARCHISTS.
Sensational Developments Made to the
Grand Jury.

CHICAGO, May pa morning paper pub
lished to-day what purports to be the testi
mony of Captain Setback yesterday before
the Grand Jury in relation to the instigators
of the recent Haymarket slaughter. This
testimony as printed is sensational in the
extreme, but not incredible, and it is antic-
ipated that the developments of the next
few days will prove the truth of much OF it,
Captain Setback is said to have told the jury
the following facts resulting from the inves-
legations of the police department: He had
witnesses to prove the prisoner Lingg had
manufactured number of dynamite bombs
from material obtained at the Office of the
Arbeiter Zeitung. Three persons were associ
ated with Lingg, one of whom was under ar
rest. The second section of the Captains
testimony, it is said, was listened to with
breathless silence.
81 think" said Setback, that l have got
to the bottom of this business. In a couple
of days | will have it all. But / want lit
tie more time. Then / can prove beyond
doubt that this Anarchist conspiracy has ex.
listed here for years. There are two divisions
of it. One is an sgitating section. Money is
set apart for its purposes. This is called the
Socialist Section. Besides this there is an
srmed party-an Anarchist Section. These
drill and are trained in the use of explosives
laid plan to sack and burn districts in Chi
cago May 4. 1t would have been carried out
but that the Anarchists lacked nerve and
were unprepared for the vigorous action of
the police. Men were toled off to set fire to
certain houses in the northwestern portion
of the city, and others were toled off to throw
bombs at the meeting if the police
attempted to disperse it. | think l can
connect every man OF the Social
lists now i'm Jail with this. The houses to be
burned in the northwestern section of the
city were to be fired indiscriminately The
purpose of the burning was to attract the at
tention of the police to that section and to
draw them away from the main points of
attack, the Haymarket square and the police
stations. The early dispersal OF the crowd
in the square, the premature throwing of the
bomb, for it was premature, and the de-
termined resistance of the police frightened
the would-be incendiarIes and those who
were TO attack the police barracks in detail"
A Juror asked where the witnesses to prove
this conspiracy were.
I'm the lookup Of the police stations"
Schaak replied. 81 can produce as many of
them before the Grand Jury as may DE

fessed their completely to me. have ex-
