Five years ago to-day-St. Joseph's
Day-Mr. Martin Thornton, the pro-
priet2r OF the Hotel Brunswick, left his
more modest quarters down town and
opened the Brunswick Hotel and res
taurant. The venture was bold one
for Mr.. Thornton, but he felt confident
that first-class restaurant would be sue
cessful, and he made the venture, paying
rent the first year, and then purchasing
the property. A year ago, after meet
ing with large measure OF success, he
doubled the capacity of the hotel by
building large three-story addition.
and since then his patronage has been
larger than ever. The success which
has attended Mr.. Thornton has resulted
largely from his exceedingly moderate
charges. meals being served at the uni
form rate of CSC each, and first-class
board is but S125 per day.

rhs South Side As.ault case.

Yesterday, at the request of the authori-
ties, two physicians made an examination
of the little Jackson girl, so outrageously
assaulted by Probasco, alias Clifford, last
Monday, and reported that crime punish
able with death in this State, had been
committed. The Prosecuting Attorney
will communicate the facts TO the Cover
nor, at Charleston, in the hope Of having a
reward for Probasco's arrest offered by
the State, as an inducement for the Ohio
authorities TO bestir themselves in the mat
ter. An officer would have left this city
for Columbus yesterday, but there is no APP
preparation for defraying the expenses of
police upon such trips, and the county au-
thorities cannot act TO advantage unless
authorized to make an expenditure in the
name of the State from Charleston.

FROM A LUTHERAN STANDPOINT.
Rev Paul Ziegelmeyer Discourses on the
Festival of Lent


To the Editor of tie Register:
SK:-Enclosed find few lines upon
Lent, at your request. The institution of
the Christian church, called Church year,
dates as far back as the first centuries of
the Christian church. AS the civil year
conforms TO the sun, and we therefore
speak of spring, summer, fall and winter,
so the church year conforms itself TO its
sun. Jesus Christ, the sun of righteous
ness. The, various. times OF the church
year bear different names relative TO
Christ's coming, suffering, dying and aris-
ing, commencing with the Holy Advent,
and concluding with the last Sunday after
the feast of the Holy Trinity.
Among these times Lent is one OF the
most earnest, bringing before our spiritual
eye Christ's gong to Calvary to redeem
the world. Forty days is the duration Of
Lent's observance, analogous to Christs
forty days fasting in the Wilderness. The
Protestant churches from the period of the
Reformation did not give up the institu-
ton OF the old Christian church, but hold
strictly to the church year and its estab-
llshed times.
The LCtherans, Reformed and the
Church of England regard Lent as time
of earnest repentance and salutary contem-
plation. Although Lent is observed in
different manner from the Catholic Church,
vet the above-named Protestant Churches
insist upon a more earnest Christian life
greater watchfulness and abstinence from
worldly pleasure during the time. To lay to
the hearts of the people Christs and the
worlds salvation through His death, in
more solemn manner than usual, special
services are held during the weeks of Lent,
when parts of the history of Christ's Pas
sion are read and a short address from
given lesson is made. This is an ancient
usage in the Church, dating back to the
third century, and is good one too. The
Churches who gave up the institution of
Church Year OF course do not observe
these times. But it must be said that the
Church Year, with its regular gospel and
epistle lessons, is a master work which
cannot be surpassed. If these remarks
would be Of any use TO you the undersigned
would be glad. they being his first tribute
to an English paper.

Pastor of the First German lions Evan
