There is only one rich man among the hundred
and odd preachers in Chicago. I know of half
dozen at New York, and / suppose there are
more. There are no Chicago preachers in re-
cept of very large salaries. Professor Swing is
paid only $40 600 year. and this is the largest
received by any pulpiteer here The Rev. DR..
Thomas receives only 81, 900. Contrast these
with the salaries paid Talmage, Beecher Storrs,
Hall, Tiffany, Potter and others in New York
and Brooklyn. Beecher is paid $40. 600, Talmage
$lS,000 and there is not one in the list who does
not get so per cent. more than Professor Swing
and three times as much as the Rev. Dr. Thomas
The one rich dominic is the Rev. DR.. Ryder, the
eloquent Uniyersalist divine, who Only few
years ago retired from the pulpit. He made all
his money outside of his profession.

Two hands that trembled at each others touch;
Two hearts that leapt when came the other near;
Love speaking eyes, two stammering tongues above
Two souls that sought each others presence much
To whom each day of absence seemed year
And that was Love.
Two souls that sought thro' weary years in vain
That sweet content which neyerrnore could come;
Two lives forever drear and desolate;
Two lives enshadowed by the pail of Pain
Two hearts that broke, yet were forever dumb
And that was Fate.

BLOODY PROHIBITION.

Result OF an Attempted Enforcement OF
the New Prohibitory Law.
DEs MONIES. IA, May 8.-rhe first
bloodshed over the attempted enforcement ut
of the new prohibitory law occurred yester
day. A constable named Pierce repaired
10 South Dts Moines with warrant to
search the premises of Nym Wyatt, who
runs q billiard hall His efforts were re-
wardei BY the discovery of small keg Of
beer in the cellar, which he seized and
carried to the floor above. Here Mrs
Wyatt took hold of the keg and sttemp pied
to recover possession Of it, when Pierce
drew heavy revolver on her
Harry Lloyd, employed upon
the premises, struck down his
arm. TIE two men thereupon became en-.
gnged in a struggle, which did not end un-
til they had tumbled out Of doors and rolled
down an embsnkment, the officer sliRhtipg
uppermost, when he put his pistol against
Lloyds body and fired, following this with
a terrific blow on the head with the revol
yer. The ball struck rib and glanced
following 1t around nearly 10 tho spine
where it lodged and was extracted. The
wound is probably fatal.
After the shooting Pierce hastily re-
treated, but was arrested and placed in
Jail. Great excitement followed, and a
large crowd surrounded the court house
and freely talked Of lynching. Forty
armed men guarded the jail all night and
the militia were kept under arms. 1t is
thought that Pierce is slightly demented.
He has made many enemies by bis meth
ods of searching private houses and other
places for liquor.
