misunderstanding.

The present Premier Of England,
Mr.. Gladstone, is making vigorous
fight for home-rule tor Ireland This
q uestion has often been before the
British Parliament and as often de-
fcated. The homc-rule bill intro
duced by Gladstone passed It's first
reading with but little opposition,
but was defeated at its second read
ing. Upon this defeat Gladstone
dissolved parliament and appealed TO
the people for reelection, making
his home-rule bill the issue iu the
contest.
AS this is the FIRST time the parlia-
mcnt was dissolved in that issue, as
also the first time an election has
been ordered on the issue, it will be
a fair test of the wish of the voters,
and it is confidently believed by the
friends of the bill that a sufficient
number of members will be elect ed
tavoring the bill to pass it during
the next session of parliament.
Though Gladstone may fail in his
next effort to secure hcme-rule for
Ireland; even though 1t is not car
ried into effect during his lifetime,
the subject is so impressed upon all
England that the day is not far dis
/ tant when Ireland will have a parlia-
ment OF her own.
1t is truly said of Mr.. Gladstone
that whatever he undertakes, be per-
forms with the greatest spirit and
enjoyment, whether in the House of
Commons or out of it. He is an in
cessant worker, and while Mt his
home at Hawarden one of his favor
lite amusements is to fell tree,
which always. requires from two to
three hours work besides walking
regularly every morning to tn"
church at the neishboring village to
attend the early morning service
He never rides, does not shoot OF
hunt.
He is now engaged in making the
canvass of Midlothian, speaking
every day.

In Memory of Samuel Waite
Barnett.

We, your committee beg leave to
submit the following report in mem
Dry Of our deceased brother, Samuel
Waite Barnett, son of Jesse and
Leatha j. Barnett. lie was born in
Hardin Co. Tenn Oct. Is, 1874; pr.
fcssca faith in Christ in hi. l6.h year
and attached himself to the Cumber-
land Presbyterian church, Of which
he remained a consistent member
until 1872, when severing his con-
nection with that body, be united
with the Baptist church and entered
the ministry. He was married TO
Miss Matilda II Bcvens, July 20,
1866. The fruit Of this marriage
was five sons, two of whom with
their mother proceeded him to Par
adisc. He was married a second
time to Miss S. j. Harris, Aug. 2,
1882, with whom he leaves one
daughter. He departed this life on
May II, 1856, al his home in lIar-
din Co. Tenn, of pneumonia, after
an illness of fourteen days, full OF
faith and hope in that Christ whom
he so earnestly and zealously
preached.
AS u minister of the gospel he was
very successful, always taking the
word Of God as \ standpoint, never
llinching from any portion thereof,
hut fearlcssly declaring the whole
counsel of God, his sermons being
clear, systematic and Scriptural.
As pastor he WAS attentive and
watchful, always ready to care for
and teach his flock the Word of. Life.
His education was limited, yet
his piety was practical, solid and
unwavcring; always holding the
mystery OF faith in i pure conscience
He was far above mediocrity; well
received and respected by all denom-
| nations, and highly esteemed. by
the irrelgious. AS father and
husband he was kind, affectionatt
and loving. He will long be missed
Ivy his many friends and brethren
and his place will be hard to fill.
But whreas, 1t has pleased oul
divine Father in his infinite wisdom
to thus remove from our midst oul
much beloved brother and late
pastor.
BE it Resolved, lst That as ,
church we humbly bow i'll submits

all things well.

For a while matters went very smoothly

owing TO heavy losses.
This was very displeasing to Miss Lotta,
who Is very frugal little lady. But loss Of
money was not her only trouble A charm.

widower. and the actress discovered that he
was paying more attention to his new flame
than an engaged man should.
Lotta, melted 1t is rumored, by Jealousy
aud angered by the loss Of very large sum
OF money which had been lost In the busi-
ness of the firm of Randall 4 Crabtrce,
opened fire on Randall.
The little actress did not begin as woman
generally do, by scolding her alleged be-
trothed. She took more prudent course
and invoked the aid of the law.
She sued Randall for about so, 900 claim

acted up to that time under the condition Of

Randall. The suit was finally got into the
Chancery Court, with Simon Borden, of
Fall River, as Master. He brought in re-
port that .s12, 900 or $4,000 was due Lotta.
This was disputed by Randall's attorney,
and the case was carried to the Supreme
Court. which sustained the rendering of the
Master in Chancery.
The matter was again disputed, and was,
through Randalrs lawyer, got into equity,
and has since been assigned for trial several
times. Still, nothing ever came of II. II
looked very much as though zone was afraid

Thus matters went on from time to time
until Lotta played an engagement last

Previous to the performance Lotta visited
Randalrs bonse. The latter is now married
to the lady who was Lotta's rival. IL Is said
that the little actress was greatly excited
during her visit, but just what was said Is

The result was that an understanding was
effected, and settlement agreed upon on
private terms.

SLEEP AND HER COUSIN DEATH.
The Relationship Between the Two
Conditions Of oCUnconsctou.uess,

The Relationship Between the Two
Conditions Of rUnconsciousness.
The relationship between sleep, the
cousin of DEATH" and death itself, is
probably real as well as apparent. The
distance which separates them is great.
but there are intermediate connections,
grades of dissolution as of development.
Among these the similar states of trance
and Information are worthy of special
notice. For sleep and for trance, one
cause, the exhaustion chiefly of the ner-
/. matter, but more or less of every
yrgan and tissue, is assienable. The
hysterical stupor is the sleep of nerve
centers worn out witn the assault and
conflict of storm reflex action. Healthy
sleep is the rest of physical elements
weared with the same strain applied
more gradually.
Cases have been recorded in which
s)mnolence, continuing for days without
cessation, has resembled trance in its
duration, while preserving all the ordi-
nary features Of natural rleep. Various
facts support us in associating the hiber
nation of animals with the same train Of
organic or functional changes as the
other unconscious states which we have
been considering 1t comes like habit;
it has, one may say, annual return; its
apparent cause is the oppressi of ex,
ternaI cold, and the animals it affects
are mostly those which, from bodily
structure or habits, are subject to great
periodic variations Of temperature.
Vital tissue is exhausted and function j.
IN part suspended, probably because the
numbness Of cold has taken upon the
radicles OF the outer circulation, and of
that of the brain surface which is con-
nected with it by numerous anastomoses.
In such a case anemia would seem to be
the cause OF the winter sleep. az there is
evidence to show that it is also the cause
OF that temporary starvation of brain
which lulls without arrestno its action,
in the natural repose OF each night.
We may even regard the lethargv,
ended by de th, into VIII ch man falls
when exposed TO great cold as short
and mortal hibcrnaiion. The fame in.
huence acts upon him as upon the bear
or fish, but the power Of its shock is
greater on his finer ard less accustomed
sense than on their comparatively coarse
organization. So likewise in other re-
gions and forms of life, IN the WEAKNESS
paralysis, atrophy, and gaDgrene oflimb,
in the leailesss Information of trees, and
IN their decay. beginning in the terminal
twi2s, the same teaching Is evident, that
vascular nutrition, in its pc riodic varla-
tons is the parent of activity and OF rest
as lis absence is of death. II is not
therefore, altogether surprising to meet
with occasional instances in which death
is simulated by some deep degree OF
stupor. British Medical Journal.
