How They Secured Magnificent Gifts
From Rich Joseph Battln.

From Rlcn Joseph 0atttn.
ELIZABETH, N. j., August 16.-A stop
has been put to the actions Of Joseph
Battin, the rich and eccentric octogen-
arian OF this city, who waited to give all
his worldly possessions to the New York
faith-curists. Mr.. Battin was so in
fatuated with their views that he
abandoned his home in this city, cut
loose from his relatives and went TO
live with the Rev. Mr.. Simpson, in New
York City. He gave Mr.. Simpson the
deed to valuable property in North
Broad street here, worth $4,000 on
which TO build faith-cure temple, and
also decided to the Berachah Home,
valuable brown stone mansion in Fifty
ninth street, New York, valued at
$50, 900. He was getting ready to dis
pose of the balance Of his property,
worth $500, 900, when his children inter-
fered and invoked the aid of the law to
put a check to their parents remark
able liberality. Proceedings, it is stated,
were begun under the New York law
TO prove that Battin was Of unsound
mind and not fit longer to handle his
property.
This seemed to have the effect Of
bringing the old man to his senses, for
an agreement was reached by which his
two sons, Sylvester S. Battin of Newark
and Lambert B. Battin Of this city,
have been appointed as their fathers
guardians, with power to transact all
business pertaining TO his affairs. They
now pay all bills contracted by him
with their approval, and see that he
wants for nothing to conduce to his
comfort, but the faith-curists no longer
have financial "pull" on the old gen.
tleman, although he still clinRs to their
belief and is now summering at faith
cure hotel in Saratoga, accompanied by
the Rev. Mr.. Simpson, their leader.
Mr.. Battin is eighty-four years old
and has six children, three sons and
three daughters. He founded the Eiz-
abeth Water Company and for nearly
half a century was its President and
principal owner. His son Lambert is
now its Superintendent. Another son
holds prominent position In Newark,
aud the third has q large business at
Scranton, Pa. Mr.. Battin is enjoying
excellent health, and, as rue, is a
sharp man Of business. He gave to
Elizabeth the S25O,0O0 High School
which bears his name.

BRIGHTON. Col, August 16.-A fatal
accident occurred on the Union Pacihc
about two and a half miles north OF
here, at o'clock this morning, at whleh
two men were killed and another badly
wounded. The engine Of train No. :
died ont, ana while it was standing on a
curve a special came tearing into II,
runping clear through the csoooSe and
part OF the way through a car OF ore.
Engineer Nally, of the special, had or
ders to run twenty-five miles an hour,
but was going about fifteen miles an
hour when he struck the other
train. When he struck the
train little mist was falling,
and dense fog hung over the valley,
shutting everything from sight, so that
the rear lights on the caooose could not
be seen ten rods away. The fireman on
the special jumped, but the engineer
stuck TO his engine untl It stopped.
Charles MeCallop and ]. Marden were
killed In the caboose and cooked by the
escaping steam, while Dave Flaherty
was injured. The dead and injured
we're taken to Denver this morning.

ONE BILLION MORE.
An Estimate of the Profits of American
Farmers This Year.

Farmers This Year.
New YeRK, August 16.-Farm profits
will be one billion dollars more this year
In the United States than they have
been during the recent years of depres-
sion. At least this is the estimate put
forward by the american Agricultur-
ist, ," in its annual review Of the harvests
to be published in the forth
coming September issue Of the
magazine. On the basis OF present
prospects this authority estimates the
corn crop Of 1891 at 100000, 900 BUSH
els, wheat 500, ,OOO,O bushels and oats
622, 600. 900 bushels, against 1,500, 400
and 523. 900, 900 bushels respectively in
1890 and l, 700, 445 and SOS, 900, 900 bush
els as the average for the preceding
seven years. This makes the total
prospective crop of corn, wheat and
oats !. 129, 900, 600 bushels, or 2S.S per
cent. greater than the preceding year
and 14.7 per cent. over the average of
the preceding eleven years.

Louisville Will Remain.

ST. LOUIS, August lot has been
decided that Louisville will remain in
the Association, and that Milwaukee
will secure Cincinnatis franchise.
President Gillette is in the city and has
practically accomplished the latter move
which will be formally arranged at a
meeting of the magnates tomorrow.
The best players from the two teams
will be retained with exception Of Mike
Kelly, who will go to the Boston Asso-
citation team. This arrangement would
make the Milwaukee team one OF the
most formidable In the country.

A Week of Disaster.
Special Telegram TO the Re0ister.

CLARKsBURG, w. VA, August TO-
Just west Of this city last night Jacob
Christine was killed by train on the b.
so. Lastweek was bad one for cas-
aulties. This is the fourth person kill
ed on the railroad, namely Clark, Sims,
Christine and an unknown man. Stout
was murdered early in the week and
several accidents are reported the par
ticulars Of which cannot yet be ascer-
tanned.
The verdict of the Coroner was that
Jas. Stout came to his death at the
hands of Noah Champ. The circum-
stances against Champ are strong. II
seems that he had narrowed a shot gun
the evening before the fatal shooting,
and had told parties that he proposed
to shoot the first person who molested
the Nutter premises at night.

A Church Riot.

CLEVELAND, O., August 16.-A mob
OF hungarians surrounded the house OF
John Martvoney, pastor OF st. Ladislas
Catholic Church, late last night, broke
the windows and howled for the priests
blood. The police arrived just In time
to prevent the breaking down Of the
doors. There has been trouble between
the Hungarian and Polish members OF
the church for some time because, as II
is claimed, Father MaTtvoney, who is
Pole, favors the Polish members OF the
congregation. There was an outbreak
in the same church several weeks ago.

next time nv Aunt GrandOn sent me an in
vitation to Laurel Hall | accepted it gladly
and for this reason-I determined TO do my
utmost to win the love OF my hero, BERTHE
GrRndOn, and | have succeeded. was L
wrong? Are you angry, Berte?'
Grace sat down after this long story, ana
burst into passionate tears.
This reused BERTHE from his stupehed
amazement. He sprang forward and caught
the sobbing girl in his arms.

night? And to think l never once looked

| But how came you there, dear~
Il gave music lessons TO the little

| give the next day, so | was to stay all night.
But how did you come there, Bertie?"
"Ohl | had been to Scotland on business
for Uncle, GrandOn,, and was returning
home. l had missed the last train from
L, SO l had to stay there till the next
morning. What a treasure should find
there l never knew till now," said BERTHE,
| thankfully.
And you love me still-you are not
angry ?" said Grace, Rnxiously.
ANGRY, my darling! How could 1 be
angry with you? Besides" said Berthe.
| roguiSnly, " have you not soothei my
| wounded pride at being completely taken
in. by owning that you loved me first?"
yes" SAID Grace, II did; but my hero
proved himself worthy before | gave it."
How much longer they won have gone
on talking we cannot say. but at this time
the family came down to breakfast.
They were very much surprised when
they heard Bertie's story later in the day.
Somehow it had all been carried OH so
quietly that no one had a suspicion of how
matters stood.
And so by-and-by there was pretty we'd
ding; Nora and Amy and two other cousins
were the bridesmaids; and Nora had her
wish, for Grace did not leave them, but she
and Berthe lived in pretty house not half
mile from Laurel Hill; and after while
Nora married Mr.. Bentley, the handsome
young solicitor, and came to live in another
pretty house close by Grace; and, as the
chldren's story-books say, they lived
happy ever after"

THE HALoYoN DAYS.
MrItten for - MoRN1Ne CALI

Written for THE MORNING CALL.
After the fervent summers glow,
When sere and brown are he woodland ways
Before the irostS aud the winters gloom,
Arc the perfect and peaceful haley on days.
The air is fragrant and warm and sweet,
The hiis are dim through an amethyst hazei
Softly the golden and red leaves fall
In the dreamy, beautiful "haleyon days"
The calm sea throbs meath the cloudless skies
Blue aad waveless; no foamy sprays
From tossing pillows enwreathe the rocks:
Now ID winds rave In the ''halcyon days"
But brief as fair is this pleasant time,
It fades, It passes and winter lays
His drelry mantle Ger ~, aud then
Gone Ike a dream sre the 'ha-cyon days"
