The Old Mans Will.

CONDENSED from the Waterbury American
A man who had been in active bust
ness in life sought to make arrange
ments whereby he might, in his declin-
ing years, lay aside the cares of life
and spend the remainder of his days
in serene retirement. And so he made
arrangements to live around among
his children, and divided up and gave to
them his property. All went well for
space, but after time he became
cognizant of the fact that his children
looked upon him only as a burden.
He bethought himself of an old safe
of his, which many years before had
been left at the place where he once did
business. One day he said to his
daughter, where he was then staying.
"Angeline, should like to 60 over and
Visit the old place once more, and see
some of my old acquaintance there. :"
When he had visited the place where
his safe was, and had made some ar
rangements in relation to it, he re-
turned.
Awhile after this he said to his
daughter: "Angeline, I ain getting to
be an old man, and you are my young
est child, and 1 have mind to have
my safe brought and left here, where
it will be near me. My will is in my
safe"
And so Angelina had a conveyance
dispatched to bring the safe. It's ar
rival at Angeline's caused no little
amount of speculation on the part of
the old mans children and others, and
they suddenly became aware ofhaving
degree of respect for the old man
that they had not recently been con-
scious of. After this, as the old man
went from place to place on his cir
cult, he found his children more favor
ably circumstanced than before, for
they had ready money with which to
procure things for his needs, which
were now literally supplied.
At last, as we all must, the old man
died. Very soon after they had
buried him his children assembled at
the house of Angelina to hear the will
read. When the safe was opened
nothing in it was found save a small
mallet, to the handle of which was
fastened q billet bearing in writing
these words:
He that giveth all his property before he is dead
Take this maet and hit him on the head.
And that was the old mans will.

A COLORED ADONTs.
Cleveland Society Excited Over Case of
MiscegonatiOn.

Miscegenation.
CLEVELAND, O., Jan. There is
great excitement among the residents
IF Brownell Street, thoroughfare
that crosses Euclid Avenue and pene-
trates the best residence part of the
city. Last night Miss Ina Norton, q
pretty blonde residing at SO Brownell
Street, went to 1852 Prospect Street to
participate in a. social game of cards
at party gathered at the house of a
Miss English. Throughout the evening
she seemed extremely nervous, and
at 10 o'clock requested some one
to take her hand at whist for her.
Rising from the table she went in
to the hall and was seen no more.
Her parents, who were present, at the
time were very anxious about the
girls disappearance and reported the
matter to police headquarters. This
morning it was learned that mar
riage license had been issued to Gus
Barber and Merits l. Norton Calling
at the house on Brownell Street, re-
porter was met at the door by col
ored domestic, who Immediately asked,
Are you reporter Answering in
the affirmative, he was told that Mrs.
Norton would see no one. Inquiry OF
the colOred servant elected the fact
that she was very well acquainted with
Barber, but Mrs. Norton, who evil
IDENTIFY had been listening, then ap-
peared on the scene and said that
there was nothing to be stated. The
reporter then called at the home of
Miss English. A number of friends of
bo
the following facts were ascertained:
The Norton family moved from Seville,
O., to Cleveland, three years ago, and
opened a boarding house near the
Hollenden Hotel. Two colored do
mestics were employed, one of whom
is at present with the family. These
girls had two lovers, Bragg and Bar
Der, both of whom were tonsorial art
lists. Barber is q colored Adonis and
it transpires that his affections were
rapidly transferred from the servant
to her white mistress, and Miss Ina
did not seem to be averse to thesame.
Clandestine meetings were frequent,
the colored girl acting as go-between,
and on Wednesday, afternoon Bar
ber's colored chum, Bragg procured a
marriage license tor him and Augustus
Barber was united in marriage to Miss
Ina Norton at the residence Of the
Rev. Gassoway, pastor of the African
M. E. Church, on Erie Street, Wednes-
day afternoon. The lovers then sepa-
rated. Miss Ina went to the card
party and leaving her hand with a
friend she went outside and met the
barber, who was in waiting with his
faithful Bragg. A carriage whisked
them to the Union depot and it is
supposed that they took the train to
the East.

Proof Positive that White is a Murderer
and a Suicide.
BATTLE CREEK, Mich, Jan. 9.-The
post norton examination in the
White family tragedy was concluded
at noon to-day, completely exploding
everything except that White was the
sole perpetrator of the butchery.
On the back of his wife's head
was wound made by a blow
from the pole of the ak and
a cut on the chin made by the blade.
Bessie had two inch cuts on the top OF
the head, inflicted with the ak. There
is no mark of blows on Whites head,
who would have been first overpowered
had an attempt been made to murder
the family.

Pasteur's Use for Fees.
fFrom the London Standard !

M. Comet, the minister of agri-
culture, is so we'll satisfied with his
visit to M. Pasteur's laboratory that
he will ask the Chambers to enable him
to practice innoculation against rabies
on large scale, and to treat human
beings suffering from that malady in a
special hospital. About forty per-
sons were under treatment when M.
Comet was at M Pasteur's. Two
patients, whom M Pasteur claims to
have saved, gave him between them a
donation of e48, which he sent to a
night asylum for INDECENT houseless
ersOnS.

But, if the press may say a word to
the pulpit, nothing is palmer than
that there must be some defect in
either the spirit or the methods of the
churches. There must be more which
they could do to popularize the good
which they present. And there is
nothing SO popular as downright hon
est human sympathy. Churches
whose membership, teachings and
methods are pervaded by this spirit,
on week days as on Sundays, will al.
ways and everywhere draw people to
them.
