pity, but to put our case in logical form, 10
that all fair-minded men can view it and make
their own deductions"
They were, he said, debarred from the prac-
teal benefits Of many organizations which the
hearing community enjoys. Prejudice" he
said, based in a great measure ON the ILL.,
founded misrepresentation of our inferior physical
and mental powers have produced this result
The Masonic order excludes the deaf forever
and beyond appeal, and We find ourselves, in
many instances, refused the beneficial aid of
life insurance purely on account of absurd i'm
pressions regarding deafness. Again, even in
our glorious country, which regards ali its citi-
zens AZ equal before the law, we are discrimi-
mated against in the civil service, not from in
ferior mental powers. but because We cannot
hear or carry on conversation by speech. Now
1t Is but common sense to suppose that did
people fully understand that deafness, while in
some respect an impeachment, does not neces-
sarily prevent an educated man from perform
ing most of the duties Of life, this restriction
would not prevail. Well, what are We going to
do about iH Clearly We are left the only
alternative of beneiting and protecting our
selves through the agency Of our own associa-
trust, at least till some other channel presents
ITSELF"
He urged that the national association should
be made delegated and truly representative
body, which would have many things to accom-
plish. "At this very moment" he said. 1--WE
stand in need Of the urgent action Of this asso-
citation in connection with the enumeration Of
the next census. II We do not wish to be
chased, a. formerly, with the insane, idiotic
and criminals, We should take strong stand
in requesting the superintendent of the census
to place the deaf in q separate class" Mr.. Fox,
in this connection, presented n resolution pro-
viding for q committee 10 consider method of
enumeration Of the deaf in the eleventh census
to be presented to the superintendent Of the
consus.

Need Of Rain.

1t is now MAY 20) thirty-four days
since this section has had rain. The
complaint of drought comes from all
parts of the State. Much of the seed,
specially cotton, has not come up.
Farmers are distressed. If there be a
failure in the fields distress in all other
departments will be felt throughout
the country. 1.-THE profit Of the earth
is for all the king himself is served
by the field"
What should the people do? They
need rain. whether or not they descrUc
it and whether they be just or unjust.
AS the heavenly Father knoweth that
the people need rain, why not ask him
to send it? Why not "by prayer and
duplication with thanksgiving let
their requests he made known unto
God" May the God of all grace THAT
nearest prayer, and unto whom shall
all flesh come," so move upon the
hearts of all people that they may SC
ask for rain as that it shall please the
Lord to send it.

Died In the Effort.

The tragic affair in New York, May
14-the death of Washington Irving,
Bishop, (the great mind-reader,) in the
mental effort to find certain word in
a book-probably shows what the hu-
man mind cannot do while as yet con-
nected with the body as fully as it may
be able to do when Observation-Disclosures
death. Of course such knowledge or
mind-reading must be finite whether
"in the body or out of the body" The
Infinite alone can, and without effort,
read not only one but many, yea all
minds at once, and this too whether
the minds be in the body or out of the
body. God is the universal mind
reader - heart-searcher. What the
Psalmist said of himself, Thou under
standeth my thoughts afar off," is true
of every thought of every mind.
"The Lord knoweth the thoughts OF
man." but no man can know the
thoughts of the Lord, only as he may
reveal his thoughts to man. "Jesus
knew their thoughts" HE needed
not that any should testify of man
tor he knew what was in mau." What
an important incentive to purity OF
thought is the fact that "all things" in
the mind and heart as we'll as all
things in the outward life, "are naked
and opened unto the eyes of him with
whom we have to do"

A CRIME UNEARTHED.
A Murder Committed Twenty Years Ago-The
Strange Evidences Found Against the
Man Who Did It

WICHITA, KAN, Jan. PA cattle
man, J w. Cook, came here from the
Indian Territory few days ago and re-
lated the particulars of the finding of an
old book he showed. 1t was partly legi-
BILE, and appeared to be sort of n diary
On the first pages was given a full ac-
count of the murder of Jacob Baughman,
an old man, living eleven miles
south of GAINESVILLE, Ohio, in the
fall of 1868. The deed was apparently
done by the writer and two accomplices
for $1,000. Mr.. Cook says the book was
found under some stones in the floor of a
dug-out on the bank of Canadian river,
in the Indian Territory, into which he
and company of men had pursued two
horse thieves. Rather than surrender
they had fought until one was killed and
the other mortally wounded.
LATER Before it could be discoyered
who was the owner of the book Yesterday
the circumstances were related to j. w.
Baughmau in this city, who said the
murdered man was his uncle, and the
statements in the diary were corroborated
by evidences discovered after the crime.
No one has ever been punished for the
murder, and this is the first light ever
thrown upon it He intends using this
newly discovered evidence to avenge the
murder of his uncle if the perpetrators Of
the crime are still alive. 1t is believed,
however, that one of them was the horse
thief killed yesterday.

That Cantankerons ana Yoman

Described in the nursery ballad, who lived upon
nothing but yictuals and drink, - and yet would
never be quiet, - was undoubtedly troubled with
chronic indigestion. Her victuals, like those of
many other elderly persons whose digestive pow
ers have become impaired didn't agree with her.
This was before the era of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters or some one OF her numerous friends
her to try the great specific for dyspepsia, con-
stipation and biliousness. This would have been
a measure of f-protectiOn their part for she
would soon have been cured and ceased to disturb
them with her clamor. The most obstinate cases
OF indigestion, with its attendant heartburn,
fatulence, constant uneasiness of the stomach
and of the nerves are completely overcome by this
sovereign remedy. Chills and fever and bilious
remittent, rheumatism and kidney troubles are
also relieved by It.

A REVENGEFUL COOK.
He Drugs the Food of Party of Lumbermen
Curious Story.

Curious Story.
BAY CITY, MICH. Jan. y A woods
man from the lumber camp of Thurbel
s. Mapes. in the vicinity of Saginaw, has
reached this city with curious story.
He says that there were twenty-five men
at work at the camp, and becoming dis
gusted with the food served made a
united kick against the cook. The latter
acted ugly, and plainly showed he bore
the men no good will. One after another
of the men was taken i'll and soon there
was not a man who was able to leave
camp. The bearer of this story says
there was not the slightest doubt in the
minds of the men but the revengeful
cook put some unknown drug
into their food All that saved the
cook s life when it was realized what he
had done was that the men were too sick
and weak to think of harming him. The
most of the men were out of danger when
the informant left, and while there was
considerable talk of Furnishing the scoun-
drel by stringing him up to a tree, the
more conservative now say that the fact
that they have eaten food of his cooking
since without i'll effects was sufficient to
convince them that their sickness was not
his work, as he could have continued it
and killed them. 1t is believed the story
is exaggerated.
