suddenly self-asserted wife Of the rich lumberman
Baboock, who was mysteriously murdered ut
Gardner, ILL.,, supposedly by his queer forty-year-
old sweetheart, Miss Sarah Dodge, appeared before
Judge knickerbocker again yesterday and caused
another sensation. Mrs. Fairchild made oath that
Babcock owed her former husband $40, 900. The
inference conveyed was that Babeock, whom
everybody thought q bachelor, married tue aged
Mrs. Fsirchild TO stave OF payment. He was In
debted also 10 Miss Dodge, to whom he was Engaged
several years. Mrs. Fairchild says Miss Dodge Is

across the wound and tied down tightly behind his

THE MOTHER WHO HATH A CHILD
AT SEA.

AT SEA.
Written for the FIsHERHHS & FARMER.
There q cheak that is growing sadly
white,
AS the tokens of storm comes on with
the night;
There'sa a form that is fixed at the lattice
pane,
To mark how the gloom gathers over
the main;
While the angry pillows wash the shore
With loftier sweep and wilder roar,
That face that form, oh whose can it be
But mother who has child at sea.
The rushing whistle chills her blood,
AS the nOrthwind hurries to scour the
flood;
An ice shiver shreads over her heart.
AS the first red lines of lightning start:
The ocean boils, all mute she stands
With parted lips and tight clasped hands,
Oh marvel not at her fear. for she
Is a mother who hath child at sea.
She presses her brow, she sinks and
kneels,
While the storm howls on and the thun-
der peals;
She utters not a word, for her passionate
prayer
Is too fervent and deep for the lips to
bear;
1t is poured in the deep convulsive sigh |
In the straining glance of an upturned |
eye,
And a holier off ring cannot be
Than mothers prayer for her child at !
sea.

The colored Baptist Association

The First District Association of
the Colored Bsptists in Kentucky, as
sembled in the church on Virginia
street in this city last Tuesday.
There were one hundred and ten
messengers present. This Associa
ton is composed of the counties of
Logan, Todd, Muhlenburg, Christian,
Henderson, McCracken, Hickman,
Fulton, Caldwell, Hopkins, Trigg and
Ballard. Geo. w. Dupuy, of Padu-
cab, was elected Moderator; Oscar
Durrett, of Princeton, Recording
Secretary Isaiah Jones, of this city,
Corresponding Secretary and p. 4.
Bronaugh, also of Hopkinsville,
Treasurer. The meetings were large
ly attended by the local membership,
and were altogether harmonious and
of great interest. The meetings con-
tinued from the opening day to the
close OF the week, treat importance
was attached to the work of educa-
ton in the district, and the interest
attached to it was shown by the libe-
raj contributions made for that pur-
pose. A collection was taken up,
which amounted to 5000. After pay
ing light incidental expenses incurred
by the Association, the remainder
will be devoted to the cause of edtl-
cation. The future outlook of the
Association is most promising, and
we think the earnestnoss OF the church
generally will produce great results
We bid them Godspeed in their work.

Some men are born great, some at
tain it, while others have greatness
(only occasionally, though,) thrust
upon them. Roger Q. Mills has at
tanned his greatness by work and
study. We consider the New York
Herald a competent judge in such
matter, and here is the way it sizes
him up: "The canvass of Congress
man Mills for reelection in texas, TO
which allusion is made in our Wash
ington correspondence, is an event of
public importance. Mr.. Mills by his
brilliant Legislative services belongs
to the category of what we may call
national statesmen.-men like Clay,
Benton, Everett and Choate-in whose
continued presence in the Legislature
the entire Republic, without regard
to party, has an interest. There are
men who give fame to the country by
winning fame in its service. Mr..
Mills returns to his people with a
national Endorsement, and his re-elec-
ton will not be challenged except by
our temperance prohibition friends,
who, in Texas as elsewhere, fancy
that moral results can be obtained by
other moral agencies"

The young Emperor of Germany

On being asked by Pennsylva-
mia editor if he ever said that 81 Il day
was enough wages for a working
man, Mr.. Harrison sent the following
evasive response: "There may be
campaign lies so plausible as TO re-
quirc denial, but this is certainly
not of that sort" If he didn't say so,
why didn't he say he didn't? that's
the question. The honest man at
the White House knows nothing
about equivocstion, but when asked
if the charge made in the North
American Review that he had de-
clared "he believes in free trade as
he believes in the Protestant religion
answered: 81 never made use of that
expression or anything like it. The
statement is pure, unadulterated
fabrication
