EASTER DAY.


EASTER DAY.
IF ye then De risen 9Uih Christ. SeeE those things
1Chich a600e, sohere Christ stitch on the right
hand Of God."-From the Epistle.
o glorious Head, Thou Invest now!
Let US Thy members share Thy life;
Canst Thou behold their need, nor bow,
To raise Thy children from the strife
With self and sin, with death and dark distress,
That they may live to Thee in holiness?
Earth knows Thee not, but evermore
Thou Invest in Paradise, in peace;
oh fain my soul would thither soar,
oh let me from the creatures cease;
Dead to the world, but to Thy Spirit known,
live to Thee, o Prince of Life, alone.
Break through my bonds whate'er it cost,
What is not Thine within me slay;
Give me the lot covet most,
To rise as Thou has risen to-day.
| naught can do, slave to death pine,
Work Thou in me, o Power and Life Divine!
Work Thou in me, and haavenward guide
My thoughts and wishes, that my heart
WAIVER no more nor turn aside,
But fix forever where Thou art.
Thou art not far from us who loves Thee well,
While yet on earth, in heaven with Thee, may
dwell.
Tersteeqen. 1871.

AN EASTER PRA YER.

Oh, let me know
The power of Thy resurrection;
Oh let me show
Thy risen life in calm and clear reflection;
Oh let me soar
Where Thou, my Saviour Christ, art gone be-
fore;
In mind and heart
Let me dwell always, only where Thou art.
Oh, let me show
The strong reality of Gospel story;
Oh. let me go
From strength to strength, from glory unto
glory;
Oh, let me sing
For very joy, because Thou art my King;
Oh, let me praise
Thy love and faithfulness through all my days.

MURDER MOST FOUL.
Mrs. southall and Tom Cape Slain by Un-
 known Parties.


 On Monday last startling rumor of murder in Prairie township reached town. It was said that Mrs. Southall and Tom Cape had been killed at the home of the former, about six miles north Of Palestine. Our reporter tried to learn the particulars, but nothing definite could be ascertained,
 Wednesday afternoon about 1:3O o'clock two prisoners were marched in- to town Icy Messrs. Moore and Devas- fer. Their names were Sam Swim and Elmore Welch. They were charg- ed with the murder. A talk with 'Saaire Bowden, the committing mag istrate, elicited from him the particu- lars of the arrest as follows: It ap- pears that Mrs. Southall had several friends, among whom were Cape and Welch. Swim was recently heard to utter the direst theats against Mrs. Sonthall and Cape unless they severed their relations. This they declined to do. On Monday morning last un- known parties entered the home of Mrs. Southall, and finding her in con- pany with Cape, shot and killed her. Her young son, aged about II years, who was cutting wood near by, came home and found his mother dying on the floor, her body lying partially un- der the bed. He gave the alarm, but when neighbors reached the scene the woman was dead.
 When Mrs. Soathall was shot it is supposed Cape ran southwest across a field and into the woods, where appar- ently, struggle took place, and he was killed. The indications are that the last of the four shots fired into his body, which took effect in his left ear, was placed close to his head, as the surroundings of the wound were badly powder burnt, the hair being burned to the scalp.
 A coroner's inquest, held by Squire I. $. Rowden, developed testimony surf cient to authorize the arrest of Swim and Welch, and a warrant was accordingly issued, and the parties were arrested Tuesday night about II o'clock. They are now behind the bars awaiting results.

A WONDERFUL WOMAN.
MISS Annie Gsy Abboti1 Performance .,
 fshe operahouse Monday Night.


 Miss Annie May Abbott, the "Geor. G,a wonder" gave an exhibition at the operahouse Monday night as ad- vertised, and those present were vel, repaid for attending, for the little ladv far surpassed the expectations of her audience.
 A committee, consisting of l.. p Featherston, G. w. Pearson. | O Roberts, Dr. William Webb. Gus Wal. ker, w. T. Webb, E. Landvoigt and k. G. Bradfield, was called upon the stage. and the manner in which she tossed around and defied the utmost strength of the strongest of these gen. tlemen was astonishing. When their hands were insulated with silk hand. kerchiefs she was eaily lifted bv the least strong of the committee, but when the insulation was removed it appeared that no power could raise her from the floor. Four of the com mittee attempted it and Called. Stand ing on one foot and laying her hands upon rod, the combined strength of four men failed to push her out of po- sltl0n. SIX men were piled upon a chair and she laid her hands against the rounds and lifted them with ease. The hands of two of the committee were laid upon the rounds and her hands laid upon theirs, and still she raised the weight of about 1000 pounds without an effort, A rod was laid in her hands and the combined exertiops of four men did not disturb it. The hands of five of the committee were placed over one end of a rod, the other end resting upon the floor, and w. T. Webb, the weightiest member of the committee, was hoisted to the seat thus formed. Miss Abbott placed one hand against the lower part of the rod the other hand being held by Dr. Webb, and the way she yanked William about was a caution.
 The most wonderful part of Miss Abbott's wonderful power, or force. or whatever it may be called, is her ability to transmit it to another. A number of little boys and girls were called up- on the stage and test made of this re- markable phenomenon. Three of the little girls were selected and while Miss Abbott laid her hands upon those of the children. three members of the committee attempted to raise them HUH ltlC HUI. DQL COtllulI DuOSC them 6 peg" One member of the com- mittee, we know, strained every mus cle ip his body to raise little tot, and failed ignomniously. When the man. ager offered to give Miss. Abbott to the one who would lift her, it was aston ishing to observe the heroic efforts of some of the older members;of the con- mittee toaccomplish this feat.
 All inexplicable phenomenon con- nected with this remarkable young woman is in regard to the effect upon her temperature and pulse. Before the performance began Dr. Webb took Miss Abbott's temperature and pulse and found them to be: temperature, 99: pulse 1O0. At the close he again inves- tigated vna found temperature to be below 90 and pulse imperceptible.
 Miss Abbott is dainty little lady, pretty and modest, and the perform ance was entirely free from anything that would offend the most fsstidious.
