Gospel Meetings,

Gospel meetings.
The intense interest in the meetings
conducted by Mr.. Hunt continues
undated. Sunday evening Mr.. Hunt
was assisted by the Morris orchestra
and the Court House was completely
packed, every available space being
taken, standing room included. 1t
was a service long to be remembered.
Never will those present forget that
sea OF upturned faces which met the
speaker as with great force of argu-
ment and intense earnestness of man
ner he spoke on the subject of "Christ
or Barabbas." Wit and gentle sar-
casm, pathos and appeal blended
with each other and carried the truth
home convincingly to many of the
audience. The characters of Plate
and Barabbas were subjected to
thorough analysis. Plate had given
to him all the credit that was due,
and his weaknesses were not spared.
The robber was also wildly described
so that in Imagination we could see
the man whom the Jews, in their en-
nifty to Christ, wanted released.
"Ihe question tonight" said the
speaker, ''is precisely what it was
there in the judgment hall of Plate
and it is Christ or Barabbas. Do we
want Christ crucifed? Why do we
want it? He is innocent. Yet we do
it when we reject Him, and all the
washing of our hands can no more
clear us than the same act could clear
Plate. We cruelty Christ in our
homes when we put our social matter
first, We cruelty Him in our bust
ness when we put business first and
for the sake of money engage in dis
honorable transactions" The speak |
er spoke throughout in that sympa-
thetic and touching strain that carried |
conviction to every heart, and finally
closing one of the most successful
meetings ever held in Morris.
Below we give the program for the
coming week. The orchestra will as
sist Thursday and Monday evenings.

A Smart Old Lady.

Mrs. Ann Libby, until recently of White
Rock, now of Deering, Me-, truly de-
serves to be classed among the remarkable
aged people of New England. If she lives
until next October she will be eighty six,
yet she is far smarter than many young
er woman, and cannot understand why
there should be so many sick people, hay
ing herself always enjoyed good health,
Notwithstanding the fact that she has
raised a large family of children. Not
long ago while she was making her
daughter, Mrs. Lewis Douglass at West
Gorham, visit, Mrs. Doulgass was taken
ill, whereupon Mrs. Libby set about
doing the acknowledging doughnuts,
skimming milk, ETC., with all the agility
of young woman. Then she insisted
upon going out and dropping sweet corn
for Mr.. Douglass. Another day she ac-
complished the family washing in short
order.
Mrs. Libby can see to thread the finest
needle without glasses and does all of her
sewing without their aid May she en-
joy many more years of happiness and
comfort is the sincere wish of all who
know her.

>, TRIEOTo KILL HIS WIFE.
But Failed And Then Shot HimseIf-Anoth-
er Tragedy In a Maine Town.

A special despatch from Newport in this
state yesterday says that a tragedy was
enacted, Tuesday morning, at the home
OF George Lakin, in the east part of New
port, which resulted in the death of one
McClain of West Sullivan, Me. the act
being done sby his own hand. Report
says that he was abusive to his wife and
and came up to Mr.. Lakin's, where she
has niece living, bringing with her a
son, IS years of age
Monday evening, McClain arrived at
East Newport from Bangor, and lodged
with Mr.. d. o. Billings, who took him,
Tueday morning, out to the Lakin place,
about two miles away. On arriving there
he told Billings to drive up the road Ia
few minutes and he would be ready to
return with him when he came back to
the house. = Mr.. Billings had driven but
a short distance when he heard a shot
and returned, finding the man dead.
When McClaif went into the house he
met his wife and said he wished to talk
to her alone, which she refused to do
She attempted to leave the room, and did
succeed in getting by him, when he drew
revolver and followed. Mrs McClain
called to her NIECE who rushed between
the two, thus preventing him from get
ting shot at his wife In this position
they went out of the house and around to
the back door, The niece called loudly
for her husband, who was working a
short distance away, and when he started
to come, McClain placed the pistol to his
own temple and fred the shot instantly
killing him.
A vial Of morphia was found on Nc
Claims person, also small memorandum
book, in which was the following few
lines, which all clearly indicate that he
was intending to do some desperate deed.
"Dear Sister Write to Barney of West
Sullivan, and tell him to give what
have left to dear Forrest. -
The evident intent was to kill his wife,
and possibly the son, and then take his
own life When the father arrived the
son fled and secreted himself for fear of
being injured The coroner from New
port visited the place, and after an ex-
animation, deemed an inquest unneces-
