The Reverend Justin Fuller, of
Brooklyn, came to Chicago last week to
deliver a series of lectures on the Catholic
Church. He gave one lecture and
stirred up such excitement that the
gallery was ready to mob him. The
next evening the reverend gentleman
made his way to the scene of action
again, to find the doors of the church
locked against him and a crowd gath
cred about the church, who We're obliged
to carry their boxes of eggs back eggs
actly as they came. DIR. Bolton, pas
tor of the First Methodist church where
the lecture had been held, appeared on
the steps to say that the lecture had been
one of such sensational and indecent
character that the pulpit could not be
again desecrated by such utterances.
DIR. Fulton retired somewhat crest fallen.
for this lecture had promised to be a
good speculation and he had book to
sell. The Stand for truth" was not a
money making position on the platform,
but the disgraceful scene it created,
will be the best sort of an advertisement
for this book and the preacher will find
that he might have gone further and
Jared worse after all.

A Galena EnOch Arden.

A dispatch from johnson City, Ten
nessee, relates the following romantic
incident. which occurred there last week
John Ward, of Galena, Ill.,, got off
a train going south and walked up and
down the platform, idly watching the
in the north-bound train.
Suddenly he gave a start, and then
darted into the ladies' coach. Rushing
up to a grey haired woman he extended
both hands and grasped hers. There
was moment of indecision, then a
scream of happiness, and the elderly
lady was in the mans arms. When the
war broke out Ward, then a young man,
joined the Seventy-sixth Illinois Regi-
ment, leaving his wife. He was wounded
and reported dead. The wife at the
close of the war married a man named
johnson, of Montgomery, Ala. When
Ward recovered from his wounds he went
to his old home, but could find no trace
of his wife. After long search he gave
her up for dead. To-day he saw her
on the train while waiting at the depot.
Johnson died just two years ago, and
Ward and his wife will go at once to
Montgomery, where the marriage cerc-
mony will again be performed.

The New York and the Cincinnati
morning dalies take the lead as regards
space devoted to crimes, the Cincinnati
papers being foremost by very slight
fraction. Cincinnati also pays the least
attention to religion, and devotes the
largest space to markets. of the whole
list, and her ratio of editorial comment
is as low as any. Boston has an eye to
the main chance, as is shown by the
high market ratio; but she gives seven
per cent. of her space to religion and
four and half to books, in both cases
leading the list. She is also one of th,.
few cities which accord an appreciabl.
fraction of space to art. while crime a.
theme sinks nearly TO one-third til.
prominence assigned TO it in New York
or Cincinnati, and to one-half the ratio
of the press at large. Philadelphia 5
newspaper average is severally con-
ventional. IL approaches nearer the
national average than that of any other
city. In attention TO athletic sports
and labor interests there is slight ex-
cess, in religion slight falling off
We see from samples of the leading
and typical papers Of Chicago and St
Louis" says Mr. Elliot, that the cit
liens of both places have about the
normal American appetite for crime:
that st. Louis. however. likes a rather
larger share of salvation with it, is
much fonder of sports, and trifie more
occupied with business. Chicago's
editors, however, are allowed to talk
twice as much as those of St. Louis;
and if city can be heard for its much
speaking, Chicago should compel at
tentiou, as her editorial ratio leads thu
country.

An Interesting Study Of Newspapers.

Henry r. Elliot, a New York journal
list, makes an interesting calculation in
the March Forum. TO show the relative
Importance that leading papers in the
principal cities give to different kinds
of news. He counted the space given by
them on several successive days to re-
lgion, to crime, to labor news. to mar
kets. etc. and he found that the ratio
of religious news to the total reading
matter was Ave per cent. The following
table shows the relative importa nee
given to each of these kinds of news in
New York. Boston, Philadelphia. Chi
cago, St. Louis and Cincinnati.

Ben Hardin, the Kentucky lawyer,
was an orator possessed Of such skill
in moving the hearts of men that very
few who heard tie beginning of one Of
lis speeches had inclination or ability
to leave before its conclusion.
He once hit upon the ingenious de-
vice of describing the conversations
which had taken place among the
dogs of the town about his clients
adversary and the opposing witness.
THIS speech occupied IA greater part Of
the day.
A farmers wife, living in the country.
had sent her negro boy to town on an
errand, with orders to return as
as soon as it was completed. The boy
however, did not appear again until
nightfall. and Ills mistress, out of all
patience. asked her husband 70 take
him out for a whipping.
The master. intending to comply,
thought he would nevertheless, hear
what tie negro had to say in self de-
Tense.
IN tell you how it was. massa,"
said tie boy. II went to town, and
was starting home, and heard Mr..
Hardin speakin. put my head into
the courthouse door, just to hear what
he was talking about He was telling
what some dogs had said. and got to
listening. and the first thing knew it
was night"
