We are sorry to learn that the fears oil
Rev. J. /. Hofpanir.w which we stated last
week, as to the dangerous illness of his
father, was painfully realized on the
morning Of Nov. odd, when this venerable
christian gentleman died. Bro. Hoff-
pauir has our warmest sympathy. in
which we know we are joined by thou
sands who hold him in great esteem, but
his sorrow is tempered with the glorious
satisfaction that his father died triumph
ant in the faith, and he had the glorious
privilege of seeing the old gentleman
close his eyes in full consciousness to the
last, bouyant and confident in the hope
of everlasting happiness. Such death
is worth all there is in this life to hope for.

THE POPE MURDER.
Sensational Evidence In the Trial ss De-
trolt.

DETROIT. May 2s.-William Brusseau,
the self-confessed murderer of DIR.
Pope. finished his testimony Monday
in the trial of Mrs Pope, also charged
with her husbands murder. Brusseau
admitted having at first told various
stories of the crime, but insisted that
the truth was that he murdered the
doctor while under Mrs. Pope's infiu-
ence.
DETROIT. May ga sensational
feature of Tuesdays session of the
Pope murder trial was the statement
of David Wright, paperhanger who
declared Mrs. Pope once offered
him $1,000 of her husbands insur-
ance money il he would get
Pope out of the way. He said
he and the woman had been
drinking. To appease her he said he
would do the deed, but never attempted
it. Insurance agents representing va
rious life concerns took the witness
stand. They testified to a number OF
policies taken out by Mrs. Pope upon
her husbands life. In one or two in
stances il was shown that the policies
were cancelled because the insurance
men believed Mrs. Pope had designs
upon her husbands life.
