A PRELATE'S FRIENDS.
Bishop Yladimir's Supporters De.
nOunce His Accusers.

No ineonsiderable quantity OF very genu-
inc indignation was let loose at the meeting
of the Greek RuSsian-Sla Orthodox
Eastern Church and Benevolent Society last
night About seventy-five members were
present, all of whom are warm friends and
supporters of Bishop Vladimir, and some
very severe remarks were made regarding
the character and motives Of the preiate s
accusers.
/. c. Jancovich presided and explained
in a short address that the meeting had been
called for the purpose Of obtaining an ex-
preston from theI members of the society
of the general feeling toward tie traducers
OF the Bishop and the enemies of the church.
4. Y. TOmauovich characterized the
ecclesiastical dIgutary as good. noble and
intelligent man, and added that II MS
parisnOueTS did not defend him he might
20 away, and it would be long time before
they obtained another pastor who would
labor so faithfully. He concluded by stig-
mat zing the Bishops opponents as gang
Of biackmalers.
j. p. Angus followed with a heated ad-
dress. stating that there are eight men who
are prosecuting the Bishop, aud that they
are a gang of sCOundrels. He alluded to
them in turn, declaring that their leader was
forced 10 run away from Chicago To avoid
criminal prosecution, and has existed during
the wears OF his residence here upon the
charity of the Bishop and the bread and
cheese Of the free-lunch counters
NJ. Dabovich and George E. Dabovich fol-
lowed in the same strain, eXtOling tn
Bishop and bitterly attacking the leader
above referred to as a cOntemptiOle specl-
men and trlye5ty upon his sex. II was
stated that the latter would have Bishop
Vladimir summoned before the Grand Jury,
in which case the speakers thought the i'll
former would be hoist with his own pc
tard."
l.. c. Jancovich introduced resolution
which was unanimously adopted expressing
the regret Of the society at the conduct OF
the Society tor the Prevention of Cruelty TO
Children, through its agent, c. b. Hol-
brook, IN entering house where fourteen
orphans We're being cared for and in incar-
ceratug the boys for three months and
branding them as criminals. HE resOlu-
ton declared that it was a violation of the
law for Hobr0ok to break into the school,
and cruel and unjust to arrest and Jail E.
2. AleXine, the deacon, and Paul Lydia,
the assistant Of the institution, as well as
contrary to the spirit II the American con-
stitution, an outrage upon the rights Of the
corporation and a cruelty to the children.
The committee of fifteen appointed at the
previous meeting to aid and defend the
Bishop was not ready to report and was
continued by the Chairman.

HER BROTHERS. SLAYER.
A Lexington Tragedy and an EIope

A Lexington Tragedy and an Elope-
ment.
Patrick c. Sullivan and Miss Mary Arm
strong, both Of Lexington, have eloped to
Columbus, Ohio, where they intended 10 get
married, was the announcement of recent
dispatch to the Globe Democrat. This is
a sequel to one of the many bloody tragedies
that have taken place in Lexington in the
last few years. On the night of the ID day
OF November 1889, and short while pre-
vIOus to the city election o that year. a
crowd Of voters mad gathered at the railroad
crossing on West High street to listen to
S eeches from the different candidates for
Office. Among these voters were Patrick G.
Sullivan, the groom in The above marriage
and Frank Armstrong, brother of the bride.
Hard feelings had for some time existed
between Sullivan and Armstrong, some say
on account OF politics, others on account Of
Sullivan paying court TO Armstrong;
sister. BE this as it may, Sulli-
van and Armstrong renewed their
differences on the night mentioned and the
latter was shot and mGrtally wounded by
the former. From the wound received from
Sullivan Frank Armstrong died on the 9th
of November. Pat Sullivan WAS then tried
for manslaughter, was convicted and SEN
fenced tu a term Of nineteen years in the
DenitentiaTy. Some three or four months
ago Sullivan was parOled, which is equival-
ent to pardon, during good behavior, and
lie resumed his Old position of checking off
freight at the Louisville and Nashville de-
pot in this city. All during Sullivans
troubles Miss Mary Armstrong; devotion
to him was never permitted to wane, and
friends of both say that Miss Armstrong,
more than any one else, was instrumental
in securing SuIliYan's release. 1t is now
between the Sullivan and Armstrong fam
lies will be oblterated by this marriage.

When ! Go Home.


When go home, when go home to him!
like to picture to myself his way
OF greeting me, and what his lips shall say,
And mine reply, and will his eyes be dim
With mist of joy tears? Will my coming be
As dear boon to him as he has dreamed?
Will all the glad bewilderment that seemed
So sweet in fancy find its verify
When 1 come home? Or will some fancied
change
OF speech, or lock. or mien the one trans
form
Who used to wear for him a nameless charm
Tempering his joy with shadows new and
stranger
With shadows darkling for little space,
And then, oh, sweet beyond imagining,
The cadence, half sob, half song, will ring
With the old music, hallowing the place.
Ny glad heart has no room in it for doubt.
The morning glories clambering at the door,
With leaves and blooms and tendrls leaning
DER,
Flecking tho sunshine, cannot keep it out.
I love to fancy the felicities
That shall be mine upon that day of days,
The old endearing names. and tricks OF
phrase,
And smiles that haunted all my reveries.
II rain or sunshine be, or gloom or CLEAN,
The day of my return, sweet opulenee
OF gladness flooding mood and circumstance
Shall smile across the mists with roseate beam.
When go home again, When go homel
My feet have strayed upon these journeyings,
But my heart never; all my longing clings
To the old haunts; always my fancies come
Back to the old abiding place to rest,
Howe'er wander under alien skies;
And find forever there their paradise,
Loves very self answering my hearts behest.

GEMS IN VERSE.
Folded Hands.

Folded Hands.
Pale, withered hands. that more than four
score years
Had wrought for others; soothed the hurt of
tears,
Rocked children's cradles, ceased the fever's
smart,
Dropped balm of love in many an aching
heart;
Now, stirless folded. like wan rose leaves
pressed,
Above the snow and silence of her breast;
In mute appeal they told of labors done,
And well earned rest that came at set of sun.
From the worn brow the lines Of care had
swept,
AS If an angels kiss, the while she slept
Had smoothed the cobweb wrinkles quito
away,
And given back the peace OF childhood's day.
And on the lips the faint smile almost said
None knows life's secret but the happy
dead.''
So gazing where she lay we knew that pain
And parting could not cleave her soul again.
And we were sure that those who saw her
last
In that dim vista which we call the past,
Who never knew her old and laid aside,
Remembering best the maiden and the bride,
Had sprung to greet her with the olden
speech,
The dear sweet names no later lore can teach;
And welcome home they cried, and grasped
her hands;
So dwelleth the mother 10 the best of lands,

The Monitor., 1891-10-16

Two shall be born the whole wide world apart
And speak in different tongues and have no
thought
Each of the others being, and no heed;
And these DER unknown seas to unknown
lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death;
And all unconsciously shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one end:
That one day, out of darkness, they shall meet
And read life's meaning In each others eyes.
So nearly side by side. that should one turn
Ever SO little space to the left or right
They needs must stand acknowledged face to
face.
And yet. with wistful eyes they never meet,
With cropping hands that never clasp, and lips
Calling in vain to ears that never hear,
They seek each other all their weary days
And die unsatisfied-and this is fate!

TIE CUSTOM OF LIFTING THE HAT.

origin during the age of chivalry, when it
was customary for knights never to appear
In public except in full armor. II became
custom, however, for knight, upon en-
tering an assembly of friends, to remove
bis helmet, signifying, Il am safe in the
presence of friends.
The age of chivalry passed away with
the fifteenth century, but among the many
acts of courtesy which can be traced back
TO its influence none is more direct In its
origin than that Of lifting the hat to ac-
knowledge the presence of a friend.
