el. Il few miles from Gainesville, during
the absence of the regular preacher and
was a success. The ore hauling was
abandoned and Mr.. Jones at once de
voted himself to the work of the gospel.
He preached at the country churches
and was soon admitted to the confer
ence. He was assigned TO Il rural cir
cult in Polk County, but he went to
work with a will and soon his churches
were all prosperous. From this he went
to other obscure circuits and the follow
ing ten years were devoted to the rout-
inc work of the rural Methodist circuit
rider, and it vas not until the great
revival at Memphis in 1883 that the
public had ever as much as heard the
name of Sam Jones. He has quite an
interesting family of two sons and
four daughters, Of whom the two eldest
daughters are married.

New York, March 12.-Miss Mamie
O'Rourke, aged 10 years, resident of
White Plains, tried 10 end her life and
that of her child on the track of the Har-
lerl railroad, but two men prevented her.
When they reached the girls side the
train was in sight and comiag toward
them rapidly. As they approached her
the girl threw the child upon the embank.
ment. She struggled flercely when they
tried to lift her, but they finally dragged
her body almost clear Of the track. The
train struck her limbs and hurled her
onto the embankment. One of her legs
was broken.
She was carried to her fathers house
and the child attended 10. When Miss
O'Rourke became calm she explained that
her lover. a wealthy young man OF Waite
Plains. had betrayed her and then cast
her of.

lam A. Newbold, the pastor of the Episco-
pal church at this place, whose name is
connected with the shortage of funds of
the American Church Missionary society,
when seen said that no knew nothing of
the alleged shortage. He knew nothing
about the case, he said, except what had
appeared in the papers. No communica-
ton of any kind had reached him relative
to the affair. Ii was certain, he said, that
he had no; appropriated the money. The
minister seemed very much surprised that
the society should have removed him from
tho position. He minated he would de-
mand an explanation. Mr.. Newbold is
very popular here. His church is one OF
tho most fashionable and, besides having
the support and sympathy of his congre-
cation, the minister is liked by the MEM
bers of other faiths than his own.
