ship. If you would like to get into the
righteousness of goodness get right among
the men and be neighbor to them and save
them and bring them to God. If these
converts are to be Murphy's converts they
will not last. The work will not last un-
less it is Gods work-and it ia Gods work.
We must lift men up to God and save them
and make them Gods own people. They
can be brought into the church and made
good church members"
Mr.. Plumb, Mr.. Abrams and Mr.. Bolton

to have the people see this lady whose
womanly helpfulness and sympathy is no

Baldwin. After a very neat speech he

Death OF Miss Greed.


A New York paper yesterday printed a
startling story concerning the arrest of DR..
Charles Barton, of 500 Herkimer street,
New York city. The doctor was arrested
for issuing false certificate for the burial
of the daughter of DR.. c. v. R. Greed, the
colored physician of this city. The young
woman was buried short time ago, and
the certificate for burial stated that she
died of heart failure. The body was ex-
humed on the strength of the testimony of
the young woman's aunt, who alleged that
the girl died of malpractice. Investigation
shows that the girl was about to become q
mother at the time Of her death. Fur
Their investigation will follow. DR.. Greed
said that his daughter had died of heart
disease and congestive chills. Dr.. Barton
admits that at the request of DR.. Greed he
made out death certificate for the health
department., though he had not seen the
girl for a considerable time. His arrest
followed for issuing fslse certificate. The
girls mother, the paper alleges, explained
the nature of her daughters trouble, and
volunteered the infornation that dis
tinguished looking, gray-haired colored
man present was the girls husband.
But later she said that he was not the
girls husband, but that he intended to
marry her as soon as he could obtain q
divorce FROM his own wife.

SORROWFUL SINNERS.
Men and Women Who Live on the
Jagged Edge of society.

Men and Women Who Live on the
Jagged Edge of society.
F. Lorraine had been drunk on Sunday,
and as he stood up before Judge Cravens
yesterday, with his face badly disfgured.
he did did not deny it. He tried to ex-
plain something about a sidewalk, but
seemed TO be still dizzy from the effects
of his spree.
He was sentenced to S. fine or two days
and half in Jail.
Alexander McBeth looked as though
he had encountered the ghost Of Banquo
or some other spirit, and had been badly
used. He did not eXclaim to the court,
LAY on, McDuffW etc, but meekly
pleaded that it was his first time" and
looked as repentant as possible.
'Well, if its your first time, 90, and
sin no mere" said the Judge, and then
McBeth quietly withdrew.
Jack Leonard, white-haired old man,
charged with vagrancy, pleaded not
guilty and had his trial continued until
to-day.
Minnie Talbot. who pleaded guilty to
battery, for having struck a woman
named Minnie Evans with a beer-glass,
was fined $40.
Major Anderson appeared for Minnie,
and asked the court that, inasmuch as it
had seen fit to pardon McBeth, a Portia
ought to have justice seasoned with
mercy.
AS the charge against the fair Minnie
had originally been for assault to murder,
the court did not feel inclined to make the
fine less.
Dan O'Neil, who became enamored of
a valise at the depot and eloped with it,
was captured, and pleaded guilty to petty
larceny, was sentenced to ninety days in
the County jail.
'Serves me right !" murmured O'Neil
to Bailiff Clark; II didn't intend to take
the bag"
well" muttered the Bailiff, "you
won't do it again for ninety days"
