Reformed Woman Shot.
Special to the Globe.

TUscoLA, Ill, May 3O.-Last Sunday
night, at Murdock, a young woman who
had been leading life of dissipation for
some time, joined the church and made a
confession charging several prominent citi-
zens, mostly married men of that place,
with bringing her to ruin. This caused a
sensation such as the town never exper-
fenced before, and stirred up considerable
feeling. Night before last, while she was
at the residence of her uncle, Mr.. Gurula,
some unknown person fired rifle at her
through the window, the ball striking her
in the side. ranging downward and passing
out The wound is serious one, though
not fatal. No arrests have yet been made.

WASHINGTON, May 30.-The Metropolitan
African NJ. L. church, one of the largest col
ored churches in the United States, was dedi-
Gated to-day. Over 5000 persons were
present. Large numbers came from
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Richmond.
The pastor of the Church of the Covenant
announced to his congregation to-day that q
debt or Sl6O,O00 still remained on the church.
Forty thousand dollars had been raised and
$50, 900 was covered by mortgage. A sub
scription was at once started to raise the bal

disgrace to navigation to think that cows
stopped q boat on the great Mississippi, but
1t was fact lust the same, for twice the deck

hands were sent out in the river to chase the
cows away and, give the boat a chance to
move along. The deck hands rolled their
trousers up and just went in, stepped Off the
boat into the river and walked right Off. 1t
sounded funny to hear the men yelling 'soolzy
to the COWS, but finally the old COWS got far
enough away and the boat steamed up.
didn't understand then and don't now why
they didn't let the boat go on and gradually
force the cows out of the way, except 1t was
a very long and Improbable trip, and the
captain didn't want to run any risk of dam
ages for killing cows"

The Sisters Released.

PORTLAND, Me-, May 3O.-This afternoon
Collector Anderson informed Capt. Ellis of
the schooner Sisters, that he could go. After
he left the collector the captain made his way
to his schooner and got hei ready for
sea. The topmast of his schooner
had been broken off, but the captain
managed to attach his flag in way to make
some display and he left the harbor with
colors flying. He was asked il he did not
think he had been treated with more consid-
Grafton than had been shown Capt Doughty.

s.T was showed in once at Rr,s+o1

81 was showed in once at Bristol, little
station upon the Northern Pacific,' said
man from Cincinnati. ''It was in the winter
Of 1885. We were there for about FIVE days.
We had plenty TO eat, such as it was, but
were all anxious to get something to read
The large majority of passengers Oh the train
were men, and we all wanted late daily
paper, but we could not get it for love nor
money.
'"There was a little weekly paper published
at Bristol and it tried to fill the want. The
first day of the snow blockade the weekly
paper was issued, and nearly every one on
the train took one. L suppose the paper had
larger circulation at that time than it has
had since or ever had before. The editor
proprietor and reporter, all in one, was
wide-awake fellow. He saw that there was a
demand for daily paper, so he got one out
every day during our stay. He came down
and got our names and residences, and pub
lished them. This. of course, made the paper
sell. The next day he got something of our
histories and wrote them UP. The next day
he wrote up how we passed the time. By
this time he had exhausted all his white
paper.
HE didn't give up. Not much. You don't
find newspaper man in the Northwest that
will give up fo1 such little trifles as that He
went out and got some brown paper, used in
tying up bundles at the grocery store, and
printed his edition on that. He got all the
brown paper and wrapping paper in town
and then he went for the wall paper and
printed his last edition on that. We bought
them every day, more as little souvenirs of
the snow blockade than for anything else, al
though think l read everything that was
printed, from recipe on cookies to the legal
notices about pre-emption of certain tracts of
land. When we got out of town he resumed
his weekly issue.''

"Before you were born" said bald-headed
old man from st. Louis, "I was on the road
People were not in such an awful hurry
twenty and thirty years ago as they are now
In those days it didn't make any difference
whether they were in hurry or not, as linn
tied trains were not thought of, and steam
boats were the best and fastest means of
transportation.
81 remember once of starting from St,Louis
to st. Paul on steamboat think it was in
the summer of 1s64-and I was on that steam
boat for fourteen days before the old tub got
into the then little town of st. Paul. The
river was very low at that time of year. and
it seemed to me that we never would get
through as we spent good portion of the
time on sandbars. The river had not been
improved in those days, but was lust as ma
ture left 1t. Coming up between Hastings aud
st. Paul the water was very low, so low, in
fact, that the cows used to go right in the
channel and cool themselves off,

A PROPER MOVE.

Mayor RICE shut down on the Sunday
base ball game in st. Paul yesterday, and
he did right. 1t is violation OF law to play
ball on Sunday, and there is no reason why
base ball player should not be law-abid-
ing citizen. If he doesn't respect the Sab
bath, he ought at least to respect the laws
of the land. 1t is not worth while in this
connection to discuss Sunday laws. We
recognize the fact that there is such a law,
and it is the duty of every good citizen to
render obedience to the laws, whether they
accord with his individual opinions or not.

THERE is something of a coincidence in the
death in Chicago of an English woman named
THoRNE through the prick of pin. The
problem of what became of one pin is thus
solved. 1t is certain, too that thousands of
women in the country are rendering them
selves daily liable to the same fate when they
endeavor to talk with both hands occupied
with the back hair and the mouth filed to
overfowing with pins of all sorts and condi-
tions.

Ymnos;pe Funeral Services.

NASHUA, N. H. May 30.-The funeral of
Stillman s. Davis, past grand chancellor of
the order of Knights OF Pythias, occurred
this forenoon. His wife, who died at the
same hour, was buried with him. Special
trains from Concord and Boston brought
large delegations of members Of the societies
to which he belonged. They were met by
committees from the local lodges and escorted
to the hotels and lodge rooms. The
funeral procession was one of the most
imposing ARRAYS of societies ever
seen here The exercises in the church were
very impressive. The coffins of the husband
and wife lay side by side before the altar. An
eloquent sermon was delivered by Rev. G. w.
N. Nicholson of Jersey city. ~.

They VIII Not Fight.

The prospects are that Paddy Norton and
Denny Costigan will not come together for
their eight-round contest with light gloves.
Costigan is in no condition to fight, and if
he should train for the event, the proba-
bility is he would slaughter Norton. Nor
ton has failed to deposit his $50 forfeit and
he can find no one who is willing to put it
up for him. AS Norton has no record as a
fighter, Costigan is of the opinion that the
success of a meeting with him would not
warrant the bother of preparing for the
event

THE persons in a Milford, Pa, church. who
sent note signed "ladies of the church to a
poor, friendless girl, to the effect that she
would better not come to the church unless
she could come in less shabby clothes, are as
much responsible for the girls subsequent
career of crime as though they had deliber-
ately plotted her destruction. 1t is well that
few such ''ladies" exist among the women Of
the country.

THE Illinois man who has waited eighty
years for the government to pay him just
claim should realize that the delay is simply
illustrative of the tendency to guard the

But those Illinois people are inclined to be so
impatient where offices or other claims upon
government are concerned.

ANDREW CARNEGIE, the Pittsburg million
aire, has more than good reason to expect
general attention to be turned to his excellent
work, Triumphant Democracy, when he
gives such practical illustration of his
thorough identification with Democracy and
the welfare of the people as is evinced in his
latest gift of a quarter of a million to found a
free library in Allegheny. If more of the
country's millionaires were CARNEGIEs in
spirit there would be less talk about the
dangers to society incident to the accu mula-
ton of large fortunes.

The continuation of the tale revealed by
Ignatius Donnelly's ''Key" to Shakespeare is
awaited with interest. OF course, the trans

not delay much longer publication of all he

be looked upon as somewhat daring hum
