IHE telegraphed recital OF Monsignor
hhlrmlran concerning the Armenian
outrages by the Turks is too horrible for
belief And yet we must believe the
story of the Monsignor, for it is the same
as he has reported to the Russian Gov
ernment, and is so circumstantial that it
must stand as true until the Turkish
Government impeaches the priest sue
cessfully. Civilized Governments can
not, in the face of these charges by Khir-

Oakland has a new morning paper
called the Union, published by the Oak

with II. III. Brace as managing editor.
1t is devoted entirely to local matters and
does not publish telegraphic news.
The Shasta Courier is now torty-three
years old, being the second oldest paper
in the State. During all this time it has
had but two complete changes OF pro-
prietorship, and with the exception of a
few months has been under the editorial
charge of the present proprietor for over
twenty-eight years. When it was estab-
lished in 1852 it was the only paper in the
State north of Marysville, and the SUBJ
scription price was $40 a year

was sorry dident have them. But
not long ago we had the most original
tramp | ever saw and he staid three
days. I saw him coming up the
avenue with big black valise in his
hand. He knew me and knew my
wife and we used to know him when
he was young away back before the
war. He is gray now and seedy. He
was very glad to see us and said his
poor mother always thought SO much
Of Mrs. Arp that he had come out OF
his way to see us-and would stop
over a day or two. That scared us
pretty bad, for we had company, and
so told him in a gentle way. But it
had no effect. He said he could sleep
on the sofa in the parlor or anywhere,
and he repeated how much his mother
loved my wife. Well, she weakened,
Of course. This old tramp wasent
ashamed of his calling, but told me
how he had come all the way from
Virginia and was going to Texas and
it wouldent cost him cent. Said he
had friends or kinfolks all along the
line that his next stop would be at
Cedartown with Joe Blance or Borders
or John Waddell, for they were all his
old friends and used to trade with
him at Rome. "Now," said he, ''you
will have to let me have couple of
dollars tomorrow morning to pay my
way to Cedartown and Joe Blance will
pay my way from there to Talladega,
where my mother has cousin" He
said he made this trip once year so
as not to quarter on anybody too long.
Well, of course, I gave him the two
dollars. I would have given him five
to get rid of him, for he was dirty and
laid on the parlor sofa half the day
reading the newspapers and wiping
the dirt off his old shoes on the plush:
I would have sacrificed him and turned
him out, but his old mother loved my
wife SO much. And she did, but that
was all. This tramp never did any.
thing for his old mother. He clerked
in store and drank up his wages.
That was all, but he was philosopher
and never worried about anything.
He never stole anything nor disturbed
the public tranquility. The fact is,
he had the advantage of me in being
calm and serene while at our house,
and he knew exactly how to get two
dollars out of me. We will look for
him back this fall, for he said he
would like to see the exposition. But
we have done our duty by him for his
mothers sake, and when he comes
again he and our new biting dog may
have it out. BILL ARP.

Did The Enoch Arden act.

GREENv1LLE, O., July 29.-Curtis
Johnson returned to this city after an
absence of ten years, having deserted
beautiful young wife in 1885. He
left here bankrupt business man and
came back with fortune.
Loaded with valuable presents, says
a special to The Cincinnati Tribune,
he sought the woman he had left. He
found chat she had secured divorce
from him several years ago and had
remarked. He is almost wild with
grief, and it is feared he may lose his
mind.
Mr.. johnson is still a young man,
being but 35 years Of age. When he
was % he met and wooed Miss Eta
Freezh, who was noted throughout
Ohio for her great beauty. They
we're married and lived happily to-
gether for two years. One child, a
girl, was born to them. Mr.. johnson
was in the wholesale lumber business,
and for time he prospered. Things
gradually went against him, and one day
he was forced to assign. 1t was but a
short time before he found hir,self
penniless. His business troubles told
greatly upon him, and he commenced to
act oueerly. One day he suddenly
disappeared. His beautiful young
wife made every possible effort to find
some trace of her husband, but all her
efforts proved useless.
AS years passed and she heard moth
ing from him, she came to the con-
clusion he had committed suicide.
Mrs. johnson worked hard to support
her child, succeeding in earning fair
living after surmounting many diff
culties. Two years ago she met Will
liam H. Perry. She was first attract
ed to him because of his remarkable
resemblance to the man she had first
loved and welded. Mr.. Perry fell
desperately in love with pretty Mrs.
johnson, and she finally consented to
become his wife. She applied for a
divorce and secured it, They were
married in 1893 and lived together
happily.
Mrs. johnson had about forgotten
her first love. This afternoon at 2
o'clock handsome stranger rang the
bell of Mrs. Perry's residence. She
opened the door, stood for second
and gazed into the face looking into
hers, saw the outstretched arms and
then fell into a faint.
Mr.. Perry appeared upon the scene
and Indignantly demanded the cause
of the trouble. Mr.. johnson just as
Indignantly inquired by what author
ity he was questioned.
II am this woman's husband" MIR.
Perry replied.
For moment Mr.. johnson seemed
dazed. Suddenly he staggered and
fell. He was taken into the house,
and when he was himself again he ex-
planned matters.
He went to Mexico after leaving his
wife, and five years ago he had enough
money to speculate in mining property.
He was more than successful and in a
few years he amassed fortune. He
/ could give no reason why he had never
communicated with his wife during
his long absence.
Mrs. Perry is completely prostratcd
by the shock, and so is her husband.
Mr.. johnson says he will spend his
fortune educating and caring for his
daughter, who is already noted for her
remarkable beauty. How the matter
will be settled has not yet been de-
nidod

The Colonel's Flight.

A prominent Colonel, Of Swainsboro,
has watermelon patch which has
been raided by cnterprising darkies on
several occasions. The Colonel miss
ed so many melons that one night
recently he seized a double -barreled
shotgun and repaired to his melon
patch to await the coming Of the thief.
He soon saw what appeared to be the
figure of a man, when he Immediately
opened fire.
At the report of the gun the fun
commenced. The Colonel thought he
saw the man draw a revolver to return
the fire, and this, together with other
extreme excitement, so unnerved him
that he forgot to fire the other barrel
of his gun, and dashed with all his
might for his residence.
When he reached the door he was
travelling at such a rapid rate he could
not stop to unbar it, so he decided it
WASH much in the way anyhow, and
as he dashed against it the door few
all the way across the room, striking
the opposite wall, bursting to pieces
an elegant bureau and shattering IL
window panes.
Investigation next morning on the
scene of action developed the follow
ing facts:
The melon patch is virtually ruined,
it being torn to pieces by the Colonel
and the thief, each doing his best to
see who could get out first. The first
leap the Colonel made he leaped clear
from under his hat, which was found
next morning. He ran over melons,
bursting them right and left and tear
ing the vines off the land. On the
other side, where the thief went out,
was found blood on the vines, trees
and fence, and where he went out Of
the melon patch there were II panels
of plank fence knocked down.-Atlan-

One Persons Influence,

In our Christian life often are we
tempted to feel or to say that it mat
ters little what I personally may say
or do, for [ am only one person. And
yet the history of our country has re-
peatedly hinged upon one vote.
In the presidential election Of 1900,
an even number of electoral votes were
cast for Aaron Burr and for thomas
Jefferson, as President. A change of
one vote would have made Burr (who
afterwards attempted treason) Presi-
dent of the United States. What a
change might this have made in the
history of our country After the
close of the late war, articles Of i'm
peachment were filed against President
Ap rev Johnson. The ballot on them
in the United States Senate lacked
only one vote of the two-thirds requisite
for his conviction.
These instances have been drawn
from the actions of legislative bodies.
The same is true in proper measure Of
the votes of individuals. In Massa-
chusetts, in one instance, the election
of Governor was decided by the vote
of single individual; for by ma
jority of only one vote in total poll
of more than hundred thousand,
Marcus Norton was elected as Govern
or.
We do not pause to note similar in
stances in church courts, but hurry on
to our conclusion,-the influence Of
some one man upon his neighbor s
salvation. How often upon the word
of counsel, ftly spoken by some one
man, has the course Of another been
happily changed for whole eternity |!
Or by the omisson of that word, how
has some man been left to perish! Is
it not true that the great majority Of
those who are saved arc brought to
Christ, not by sermons addressed to
crowds in the churches, but by private
words of entreaty spoken by some one
friend

indicate the condition of the animal.
If it hangs loose, it shows that the
pig is not we'll, and that its food
