4 True History Of the Once Famous "Rob,
ert Heller"
Robert Heller" the noted magician.
was really William Henry Palmer, na-
tive of Canterbury, in England. At the
age of ten years he was musical pro-
Dizzy. and at sixteen he appeared in con-
cert, and had composed several brilliant
stndies for the piano-forte. His musical
career was hindered by his boyish fancy
for the illusions Of magic, at first q mere
recreation, afterward an infatuation.
While still a student he left the Royal
Academy, in company with another
young and noted artist, and at the Thea
ter Royal, Rochester, he gave his first
magical entertainment The result was
not brilliant. The friendly confederate
sat in front box. with greatly waxed
mustache, eye-glass and other disguise,
but owing to anxiety he lost his presence
of mind at critical periods, to the discom-
future of the wizard and the disgust OF
the audience, from whose missiles the
two young adventures escaped through
4 window at the rear of the stage.
In 1852 Robert Heller came 10 the
United States. and soon afterward he
drifted to Washington. There he became
professor of music, was organist at DIR.
Halls church, became lion in the dip
lomatic society presided over by Lord
and Lady Napier, and married Miss
Annie Kieckhofer, daughter of one of
the firm of Riggs & Co., bankers. But
his infatuation for Bohemian life was
not overcome. His marriage was not
happy one, and he persuaded an old
English gentleman named Philips, the
father of Washington bookseller, to
furnish the funds for new necroman-
GERS outfit. Soon afterward he OBJ
tanned the services Of his step-sister, Miss
Ada Palmer, as confederate, and with
her he travelled around the world. Re-
turning to the Atlantic coast, he died at
the Continental Hotel, Philadelphia,
November q, 1878.-Ben. Psrley Poore.

The Moose a. 4 Racer.

Il is said that domesticated moose
belonging to half-breed in Maine is .
valuable assistant about the farm. and
that it is capable, when hitched to a sled
and drivenNpon the ice, of beating any
horse that can be produced against it.
At an exhibition of moose racing in this
city some years ago the moose were very
disappointing to those who went to see
them. and to the gentleman who had
brought them on in the trust
that they wonlddrove . money
making attraction when offered
to the public Al popular adm is
sion prices. They were quite slow and
cumbersome, in very painful contrariety
to the general belief that had been enter
tanned of them. and horses Of common
breed and dubious rap;dity were fleet in
comparison Very smooth ice might
make a difference, but q harnessed
moose running against good horse on
y track of earth would seem thing that
was anchored. -Harper's Weekly.

The farmer who has any desire to

desire, it does not justify him in permit

that can be made to take the place of

A REFORM IN FUNERALS.
Resolutions Adopted by the City Ministers at
Their Regular Meeting Yesterday.

There was a representative attendance from
the various church denominations at the Union
Ministers meeting, yesterday forenoon, at the
Central Christian Church. Rev. M. L. Haines,
of the First Presbyterian Church, presided, and
Rev. Robert E. Neighbor, of the North Baptist
Church, read a well-considered and forceful
paper on Sunday Funerals" He took strong
grounds against the holding of funerals upon
that day, as well as against expensive funerals
and obsequies, attended with great ostentation.
The subject was discussed at some length, almost
every pastor present agreeing with the essayist.
DR.. Gilbert offered resolutions on the subject,
which carried. The resolutions provided for the
appointment of a committee to consult with
undertakers to bring about the desired reforms,
and expressing strongly the disapproval by the
meeting of Sunday funerals and the intention
to discourage them. The committee consists Of

fore Thanksgiving, and majority of the min
listers present pledged themselves to cooperate
with the committee in the way suggested Mrs.
DR.. Houghton was present, and made statement
touching the work of the city Evangelistic
Union.
Upon adjournment the association repaired to
the reception-room in the chapel to enjoy q
luncheon spread by the ladies of the church.
After luncheon toasts were responded TO as
