FROM PULPIT TO PRISON.
A Baptist Preacher Arrested at the Con-
clusiOn of His Sermon.

PARKERsBURG, September, %
During the Baptist Association meet
on Big Run, in Lincoln county, this
week, sensation was created by the
arrest of Rev.. Gilbert Haser by Dep
uty Sheriff Jones. Hager visited the
meeting and near the end of the SEES
sion, was invited to the pulpit, where
he delivered Il most earnest and elo-
quent sermon,
Deputy Jones was a listener and
when Hager finished he stepped to
the pulpit to execute warrent for
the preachers arrest. This caused
some excitement among Hager's
friends, but he was quickly passed
from the pulpit and behind the pris-
on bars without any demonstration.
The day following his arrest his
brother, IN jor" Hager, was seen
acting suspiciously near the Jail, and
when he was arrested search dis
closed small steel saw, bottle of
nitric acid, coil of rope and also a
letter from the imprisoned preacher,
in which the letter urged that a mob
be raised to liberate him. 1t was
reported that one would attempt to
do so that night, but the prompt ac-
tion of the authorities foiled such an
action.
Hager was formerly Il well-known
citizen of Lincoln county, taught
school and was a justice, respected
and prosperous. He began to 90
wrong and finally fed the State to
escape several indictments which
had been found against him. He
went 10 Ohio, reformed. became a
preacher and is now prisoner.

Overruled.
From the Youths companio!

FROM the youths Companion,
In certain part of West Virginia
some years ago there was local court
presided over by an honest old farmer,
who in his earlier years had been an
attorney at law. The judge was a
quick tempered, impatient man, but
by no means ungenerous, and was pos
sessed of a keen sense of humor.
One day while on the bench he saw
in the audience an old negro whom he
had engaged to haul some timber from
his sawmill near by, but who had been
afterward persuaded to do the same
kind of labor for another person, to
the neglect of the judiciary.
As soon as he caught sight of his re-
creant toiler the judge suspended the
trial, quilted the wool sack, and APP
preaching the old African said, with
great Indignation and very red face;
"You old rascal! Why didn't you
haul timber for me as you promised
to do? You'll have to be taught les
SON.
The old negro gave one look th'
indignant judge, then he squared of
and throwing his coat to bystande
said cheerfully:
| Come on, massa Dis ole chill,
used to spank yo' when yo's trifiiI
boy, an j reckon he Gin jis' do it agir
IL it's necessitous.
The judges motion was over rulet
on that occasion as the court resound
ed with merriment in which he wa
obliged to join.

WHITE HOUSE BABIES.
Little Ones Who First Opened Their
Eyer In the Old Mansion.

Just as President Cleveland was the
first Chief Executive to be married in
the White House, so, too, is the baby
upon whom the whole nation smiles
lovingly to-day the first child OF a
President to be born under its roof.
The record of births in the old man
sion is shorter than the list of the
marriages, and, sad enough. doubling
them both would not cover the num-
Der of deaths and funerals there.
OF the babies who first saw the light of
day in the old house, and If they lived
the world has not forgotten under
what a lucky star they made their de-
but, probably only two are living I'M
til this happy event added another
One is Mrs. Mary Emily Donelson-
Wilcox, daughter of Andrew Donel
son, nephew of President Jackson and
the private secretary and confidential
adviser of '.Old Hickory during his
entire Official life, and the other is Jul
liza Dent Grant. the first child born to
Colonel and Mrs. Fred Grant, and
now young lady just past sweet six
teen.
Mr.. and Mrs. Donelson had two
other Children born in the White
House, which with grandchild of
President Jefferson and another of
President Tyler complete the list.
OF christening fetes in consequence
OF these happy additions to the CEN
sus of the District some stand out as
marked occasions. Mrs. Wilcox has
said of the event of which she was the
smallest but at the same time the
most important parsonage:
'Both houses were invited and for a

daughter of Secretary OF State and the
reigning belle and beauty of that Ad-
ministration, took upon herself the
responsibilities of godmother. | was
said to have behaved very well during
the ceremony.
When Miss Julia Dent Grant was
christened the company invited
by President and Mrs. Grant assem-
bled in the blue room, where the cere-
mony occurred.
The last christening to take place
in the blue room was during the first
part of president Harrison's term,
when his granddaughter, Mary Lodge
Mckee, was baptised with water from
the River Jordan, and the clergyman
officiating was the baby's grandfather,
the venerable DIR. Scott. The pres
ence OF four generations of the family
made notable gathering, and prob
ably one never before seen at the White
House.

A Peculiar Character.

George Mcmillan of Randolph coun-
ty, who came to weston this week to
see his brother, who is an inmate of
the asylum, is certainly a peculiar
character. He is an imbecile fellow
of very ordinary appearance, but is en-
dowed with a most remarkable memory
He can begin with Washington and
narrate almost every historic circum-
stance attending the life and death Of
every President down TO Cleveland.
He enters into the minutest deteals,
and is veritable encyclopedia of in
formation so far as biographical his
tory is concerned. BY the aid of his
rare faculty he repeats the most
lengthy marriage ceremony, line for
line as it is laid down in the book, and
recites the master pieces of the great
poets without single error or omis-
sion.-Stdte Times.

Short Crops.

The September report OF the stat
istician Of the Department OF Agricul-
ture has been issued. The report
shows decline in all the staple crops.
The corn crop declines over ten points
from the August report, and is given
at 1871 per cent Of an average crop.
This decl inc was general and was due
to the pre- vai ling drouth. The gener-
al average of the wheat crop, which
can now be given with considerable
accuracy, IA, the lowest since 1885,
when it was rs. A further and large
decline in oats, rye, barley, potatoes
and tobacco is announced. The Fl CURE
for the tobacco crop is 1913, and the
general drouth given as the cause of
the decline. Cotton shows a decline
Of seven points, to 1874, being the
lowest average for September since
1881. In some States the plants are
making a second growth and in Others
there is spouting and rotting in the
bOlls.
The wheat crop of the United States
this year is estimated at about four
hundred million bushels. The cereal
year began with an enormous surplus
brought over from the last crop. That
surplus, or an amount equal to it, has
been shipped to Europe, leaving in
this country the crop of 1893. Fifty
million bushels are required for seed
and the remaining three hundred and
fifty million bushels must supply our
own people with bread and flll the ex-
port demand.
The weekly review of the British
grain trade by the Mark Lane Express
is of unusual interest. Wheat is firm,
having made no decided advance.
Germany admits deficit of some
thirty-three million bushels of rye and
an increase in the purchase of wheat
is expected. The Russian government
has decided to purchase hundred
and ninty-six million bushels of rye,
which is selling in st. Petersburg at
seventeen shillings a,quarter or about
SO cents per bushel. This purchase,
the Mark Lane Express says, is regard
ed as menance to European peace in
the coming year.

that, allowing themselves to look sb-
