WORK OF GHOULS.
Mrs. Eliza Maden's Body Stolen from
Mount Jackson Cemetery.

TIL family of Mrs. Eliza MAIDEN, an aged
woman, who died near Haughviile a
week ago, dicovered yesterday that her re-
mains had been stolen from the grave at
Mount Jackson Cemetery. The discovery
was made Thursday by the dead woman's
grandson, a lad aged about twelve years.
For several days previous to the work oe
the ghouls the boy had been watching close
ly the sacred spot that marked the last
resting place Of her grandmother, and for
three nights he says that he slept in the
cemetery. He suspected that medical stu
dents would be after the body from the
fact that his grandmother died of a COM
plant that puzzled the physicians who at
tended her. Before her. death the sick
woman was II 'rsed fy the boys mother.
The latter contracted the disease which was
slowly killing the elder woman, and her
death occurred a few days before the 9TH
err. Early Thursday morning the boy Wis
tied his grandmother's grave and found
that the earth had sunk several feet This
was the first known that the medical
sharks had been at work.

strings were many small articles. The
children paid . cents q clip and were al

Annie Laurie.

A Pittsburg. magazine. the Youths Jour-
nal. has hunted up the history OF Annie
Laurie. She was not a creature OF imag-
ination, but an actual verify, of whose an
cestry honorable mention is made I'm Scotch
history. Stephen Laurie was a hourishing
merchant of Dumfries before James vi be-
came King. Prior to 1911 he married
Marion. daughter of Provost Coran, get
ting with her a handsome marriage por-
ton. Being a man of many acres, he took
the designation OF Maxwelton, leaving az
his death his lands and titles TO his eldest
son John. The next head of the house was
Robert. a baronet- He was twice married,
and had. by his second wife, three sons
and four daughters. The birth of one of
the latter is thus entered in the family
register by the father: AT the pleasure OF
the Almighty God. my. daughter. Annie
Laurie. was born upon the 10th day of De-
cember. 1852. about 6 O'clock in the morn-
ing, and was baptized by Mr.. George Hunt
er. the minister Of Glencairn." The we'll
known lyric was composed by Mr.. Doug
las Finland, an ardent admirer Of BON
ME Annie" who did not. however. return
his affections. but married his rival, Alex

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION.
Points to Be Covered by the ~ConvOcatiOn
Next Week.

The convocation in the interest of relig-
ious education to be held in Tabernacle
Church, beginning Monday evening next,
and continuing through the day following,
deserves more than a passing notice. The
theme itself is of primary Importance, and
it will be handled by about twenty repre-
sentative ministers from various parts of
the State, whose names are guarantees
that all who attend will be we'll repaid.
The family, the Sunday school, the closet,
the pulpit and the college, as agents for
imparting a knowledge of sacred things,
will pass under review. What those insti-
tutions are, what they ought to be, what
notifications ought to be made in exist
ing methods will be freely considered, each
speaker having the utmost liberty to eX-
press his own thoughts. Presbyterians,
BaptiStS, MethodiStS,
Episcopalians and other religionists are in
vited to participate in the DELIBERATIONS, to
contribute their best thoughts and to bear
away to their fields of labor whatever the
others may offer for their assistance.
This convocation is held under the au-
spices of the American Society of Relig-
ious Education. 1t is a part of a plan by
which that society seeks to enlist the best
minds of the Nation in a searching and
original study of the subject Twenty 9TH
er conventions will be held in various cit
les before September of next year. In each
instance the same themes will be consid-
cred, thereby concentrating thought and
furnishing a symposium of great value.
The Indianapolis convocation will be In
diana's contribution, and will form an i'm
portant part of the national deliverance
made upon this pressing question of the
hour. If the papers from various convoca-
lions are gathered up and published, as is
proposed, there. will be some interesting
literature.
1t is understood that this movement has
been inaugurated because prominent minis
ters and laymen feel that existing agen-
CiaG and naafhn1o nro in010niofa that a
agencies and methods must be devised and
employed. The welfare of the church and
the State, the cultivation of the highest
Christian character and the prosperity of
the church all demand that as speedily as
possible religious education should be lifted
to the same level as secular education
