The disagreeable weather prevented
many from attending the lecture deliv-

Mr. Vending chose for the subject OF
his discourse saul of Tarsus."
Mr. Vending is by far the most elo-

his gestures. while few, are graceful, his
presence is commanding and his language
elegant and chaste. For one hour and
a half he held the assembled audience as
II spellbound, and only when he Strayed
for moment from his subject did the
assemblage break from the stiffness and
close attention that was accorded the
eloquent speaker. The lecture gave EVIL
dence of careful research and deep learn
ing.
While the lecture was brilliant, yeI
many We're disappointed that the subject
was changed, yet those present were con
viuced that anything Mr.. vending
would touch upon would De entertaining

FOUND IN 4 CANAL
The Body of a Young Girl Who Was Prob
ably Foully Murdered.

ably Foully Murdered.
HARRISBURG, Aug 6-The body of Jennie
Yanhorn, a very pretty girl, aged about 20
wears, was found floating in the State street
lock of the Pennsylvania canal this morn
ing. The girl had been employed as an at
tendant at the State Hospital for the Insane,
and was at her home Sunday night. The last
seen OF her by her family WAS when she left
her home that evening on her return trip to
the hospital DR.. Gerhardt, the Superin-
tendent, saw her at 10 O'Clock on Monday
morning, and when she failed to return,
asked about her at her home, and was told
that she had probably gone to visit friends
in Perry county. This appears to have been
the last seen of pretty Jennie Vanhorn until
her body was found in the canal
The poor girls face was bruised and cut,
and the queer appearance of her neck gave
rise to the suspicion that she had met with
foul play. The girl had been engaged to be
married to young railroader named Kinch,
who was killed in the Pennsylvania Railroad
yards year or two ago,,and it is also said
that she afterward fell in love with one of
the attendants at the asylum. To-day
colored man came to the police, and said
that a man had come to his house a few
nights ago, who acted queerly, and said he
had killed a girl and thrown her into the
canal. A post mortem will be held, and if
an investigation warrants it, the man de-
sCTibed by the negro has been located and
will be arrested. The family appears to be
ill-fated, the father of the girl having COM
mitted suicide by shooting some years ago.

fsFECIAL TELEGRAMs TO THE DIsfArcH.l
UNIoNTowN, Aug. 6.-The social element
of the city is in fernent in an effort to dis
cover the name of the man or men who were
the real cause of the untimely death of
pretty Ida Lawrence, the typewriter, who
died from the effects of a criminal operation.
The gossips are wild, and have connected
the names of two prominent lawyers with
the case, but as vet there is no direct evil
dence. 1t is known that the girl made a
statement bUore her death, but it is said
she studiously avoided charging anyone.
The evidence brought out at the inquest
was interesting, but threw no light On the
connection of anyone with the case but DR..
Walker, of Dunbar.
Prominent physicians of this city, Drs
Gaddis Baton and Hackney, testified that
the girl had said before she died that she
had been treated by DIR. Walker.
James Gray, with whom the girl had
boarded, testified that she came here from
Columbus. He had found several dangerous
bottles of medicine in the girls trunk
labeled 'Dr. 7. p. Walker, Dunbar, Pa
The members of the jury utterly refused
to make public the contents of the finding,
the supposition being that some one besides
the doctor was mentioned in it, and that an
arrest will likely be made before long that
Will create sensation. DIR. Walker Is now
IN jail, having failed to secure S, 600 bail de-
manded- He is about 40 years of age, has
practiced medicine in Dunbar Ior 20 years
and has nothing to say, except that he is in
nocent of the charges.
The girls mother died when she was quite
young, and she learned typewriting in order
that she might take care of herself. Her
father is living near German township, and
friends say the case against the real, though
unknown, authors OF the girls death will
be pushed.
