Spending an afternoon last week at Har-
per's Ferry We visited some points familiar
in days Of yore and dear to us. In our wan
behring's, coming to the top Of the old Mag
azine Hill, we found a resting place on the
ample and breezy porches Of the "Hill Top
House. place Of summer resort for many
people-of which Mr.. T. s. Loyett is the
proprietor. It is a commodiOus summer ho-
tel, and is seldom, if ever, during the season,
without full complement of guests. We
had hardly taken our seats and gotten out
an expression or two as to the beauties Of
scenery about US, before a well-dressed
colored man came to US with ice cream and
the compliments ofthe proprietors. OfcOurse
this was an episode as pleasing as unexpect-
ed. After resting while and ready To re-
sumo our wanderings, by invitation Of the
proprietor we went to the top of the house
and had view that surpassed what we had
seen from "JefFerson's Rock" which brought
to mind the sayings of Mr. Jefferson in his
"notes" We, at once, in our mind, re-
christened Mr.. LOyett's HOtel-it should be
known as 'The Tip-top House"
In our wauderings we were impressed by
the beauty of almost every home. We
doubt if there is a town anywhere in this
great valley where such attention is paid to
the identifying of homes Fresh paint and
tho rse Of tho ,vhifev-ash hrush il Ohserv-
able almost everywhere. Green swards in
front Of dwellings aud roses climbing over
almost every dOor-post and window frame
give evidence Of the aesthetic tastes Of the
dwellers, and nature has done, beyond ques-
ton, more than art can do-and for the peO-
pie Of Harper's Ferry and Bolivar beyond
anything, almost, for any other locality in
this great valley or State, in the way of the
beautiful and picturesque. We do not Won
der that hundreds of people summer there.

A Brutal Murder.

KANSAS CITY, May 4.-Last Satur
day morning the dead body Of woman,
aged about so years, was found on the
crest OF the bluff, overlooking the rail-
road track at Lindenman, seven miles
from this city, in Clay county. The
woman had evidently been murdered.
A knotted handkerchief twisted tightly
about her neck by means OF a stout
stick, used as q lever, was the instru-
ment OF death. The woman was buried
without being identified. The only
clew to the mysterious murder was fur
nished by r. Fl. Mccormick OF RAN
dolph, town two miles from Linden
man.
This afternoon before the murder he
was walking from Randolph to Linde-
man. He overlook man and woman
walking in the same direction. The
man was cursing and abusing the wo'
man in shameful manner, but he
could not catch the words. The next
day he recognized the body OF the muir
dered woman us the woman he had seen
the day before. All trace OF the wo-
mans companion was lost. A clue was
found at Harlem, however, when man,
who was afterwards identified as the
murdered woman's companion, left
bundle of ladies' soiled underclothing
with a washerwoman to be washed.
That was on Saturday night. The clue
was discovered Monday and since that
time the waSherwoman's house has been
closely Swallowed.
To day man called for the washing
and was Immediately placed under ar
rest He turned out to be James
Crantz, q horse trader and trainer, late.
" in business in Salina, Kansas. He
corresponds closely with the descrip-
ton of the murdered woman's compan.
ion, aud r. H. Mccormick ef Randolph
identified him US such. The woman is
believed TO have been Ellen Nelson, o
notorious character of Pittsburg, Kan
sas. Several circumstances point tc
Crantz's guilt. Nomotive for the crime
has been discovered.

Have you read OF the TAI Mahal in
India, in some respects the most majes-
tic building on earth? Twenty thous-
and men were twenty years in building
it. It cost about SIG, 1000, 600. The walls
are OF marble, inlaid with comedian
from Bagdad, and turquoise from
Timber. and jasper from the Punjaub,
ale amethyst from Persia, and all man.
ner of precious stones. A traveller says
that it seems to him like the SHINING OF
an enchanted castle OF FURNISHED silver.
The walls are 245 feet high, and from
the top of these spring dome 30 more
feet high. that dome containing the
most wonderful echo the world has
ever known, so that ever and anon

drums, and harps. are testing that
up and then comes down as II
it were the voices OF angels all
around about the building. There
is around 1t q garden OF
tamarind. and banyan. and palm, and
all the floral glories OF the ransacked
earth. But that is only the tomb of a
dead empress, and it is tame compared
with the grandeurs which God has
builded for your living and immortal
spirit. O. home OF the blessed! Foun-
dations OF gold! Arches OF victory!
Capstones Of praise! And a dome in
which there are echoing and re-echoing
the hallelujahs OF the ages. And around
about that mansion is q garden-the
garden OF God-and all the springing
fountains are the bottled tears of the
church in the wilderness, and all tie
crimson OF the flowers is the deep hue
that was caught up from the carnage Of
earthly martyrdoms, and the fragrance
is the PRAYER Of all the saints, and the
aroma puts into utter forgetfulness the
cassia and the spikenard, and the frank
incense, and the world renowned spices
which the Queen Balkis OF Abyssnia,
flung at the feet OF King Solomon.
When shall these eyes thy heaven built
walls
And pearly gates behold,
Thy bulwarks, with salvation strong,
And streets OF shining gold?

through the rejection of that Christ
who makes heaven possible, l wonder If
any OF us will miss the spectacle? / fear.
l fear! The queen Of the south will rise
up in judgment against this generation
and condemn it because she came from
the uttermost parts OF the earth to hear
the wisdom OF Solomon, and behold. u
greater than Solomon is here. May
God grant that through your own prac-
teal experience you may find that re-
ligious ways are ways Of pleasantness,
and that all her paths are paths OF peace;
that it is perfume now and perfume for
ever. And there was an abundance OF
spice; neither was there any such spice
as the queen OF Sheba gave to King Sol
Omon,"

Dun,s Review Of Trade.

NEW YORK, May 1.-R. G. Dun q
Co. 8 Weekly Review Of Trade says:
Business is large in volume and sus-
tanned by general confidence as to the
future.
Wheat and flour exports from Atlant'
ic ports continue far behind those OF last
year, and while reports OF foreign crops
prospects are not favorable, there Is re-
ally no reason to anticipate any short
age or unusual demand from abroad
prior to the close OF the current crop
year. The possible demand next year
has to meet on exceptionally favorable
crop outlook. The reports OF trade at
other eastern and middle cities are on
the whole more favorable than week
ago. Trade ut western and southern
points seem to be especially encourage
ing. Better weather helps almost
all western points, and at
the city OF Milwaukee trade was never
better, at Omaha and st. Paul very fair:
at Minneapolis -four is dull. but the lum-
Der trade Is active at Omaha; fair
weather helps business Trade is quiet
ut Kansas City but improving at Louis
vile. Nashville and Atlanta with de-
cided strength 1T ST. Louis.
The great industries are in better
shape. The demand for products OF
iron and steel is more encouraging. The
woollen manufacturers still hesitate,
apparently because the producers are
inclined 10 ask higher prices for the
now clip Of wool than the manufacture
ers can pay, but there is belief that
the consuming demand for goods must
be as large as it ever has been
in any previous year, and the clothiers,
though very cautious heretofore, begin
to act upon that belief. The shoe trade
is still retarded by the uncertainty as
to prices for the future but it is never
the less fairly active. Merchandise ex-
ports from New York continue much
larger than year ago, but imports are
also remarkably large and there is a
prospect OF heavy exports OF gold for
some months.
The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
seven days number 255, as compared
with total of 247 last week and 2ll the
corresponding week last year.

Crop Report.

WASHINGTON, May 4.-The weather
crop bulletin, issued by the signal Office
to-day, says:
The past week has been warm in the
northern states east OF the Rocky noun
tains, except in northern New England,
while about the normal temperature has
prevailed throughout the southern
states and on the Pacific coast. The
temperature for the season from Janu-
airy LIST to May LIST continues in excess
throughout the northern states, and
this excess is apparently in the increase
in the principal grain growing states.
The week was dry generally throughout
the agricultural districts. the only ex-
cess of rainfall being in Washington
and northwest Oregon, portions OF Ida
no and Montana and eastern Florida.
The rainfall for the season continues
in excess over the greater portion OF
the principal agricultural regions, not
withstandiag the total absence OF rain
in many sections during the past week.
There has been large excess of moist
ure generally throughout the states
west Of the Mississippi and generally
from tho east gulf states northwestward
to the st. Lawrence valley.
The weather during the past week
has been specially favorable for all
growing crops throughout the grain re-
gions OF the northwest and the central
valleys, excessive sunshine and warm
favored farm work and early
sown wheat in Minnesota and Dakota Is
In excellent condition. In the winter
wheat region ali crops are reported in
excellent condition; wheat and grass
growing nicely and much corn planted.
In the cotton region cool nights have
growth and crops are general
" in need OF rain.

German
Syrup"

The majority Of well-read phys
icians now believe that Consump-
ton is a germ disease. In other
words, instead of being in the con-
stitution itself it is caused by innu-
merable small creatures living In the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as caterpillars do
the leaves of trees.
A Germ The phlegm that Is
coughed up is those
Disease. parts of the lungs
which have been
gnawed off and destroyed. These
little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, but they are very much
alive just the same, and enter the
body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pcres Of
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
frightful rapidity. Then German
Syrup comes in, loosens them, kills
them, expells them, heals the places
they leave, and so nourish and
soothe that, in a short time consump-
ives become germ-proof and well. o
