THEY RESISTED ARREST.

The sheriff and his party proceeded up
the river road. and soon arrived at the
two shant4es that were reported to be
the scene Of the trouble. An old mar
came out of the shadow OF the upper OF
the two shanties, He proved to be John
Duffy, the old man who had been as
saulted. He was in the midst Of his story
when yells arose from the rear OF the
two houses. The man who was yelling
proved to be the younger Duffy, Tom,
who is we'll known in Wheeling.
They're running away, up the hill
side" he cried, and started after the
men, who, the sheriff was informed,
were "Btll" and Mulligan McMasters,
the men, who, according to the story of
the Duffys, were the aggressors in the
fight that had been concluded an hour or
more before the arrival of the sheriff.
Sheriff Richards and his men took up
the pursuit, but In the darkness and on
the rough ground along the hillside It
was no easy matter to keep up with two
desperate criminals, who knew every
inch OF ground they were traversing.
Young Duty, however. knew his ground.
and kept within sound Of the flying pair.
He kept up d continual cry that enabled
the sheriff'B men to maintain the pursuit
without strayinE. Finally Duffy lost
track of the two McMasters, and was I'M
able to say in which direction they had
gone. 1t was thought they had entered
the air shaft OF the coal bank, but in
vestigation at that point did not reveal
their presence.

tnen, Injured as she was TO much that's
trying aud startling, she stood for q
moment petrifed. Before her. on an evil
dent bier, in a half sitting posture and
covered with bedclothes. she beheld her
late pupil with the fatal ground rice
and betel showing between her lips,
and on her forehead the trident mark of
Vishnu. Lillian knew we'll these secte-
rian marks made with sandalwood
paste and used to denote what god is
worsbiped by the person who bears
them. Her face flushed with q righteous
indignation. She exclaimed in Tamil,
"Who has dared to do this?' and step
ping forward took her handkerchief and
erased the symbol Of idolatry. Then,
taking some Of the paste that she per-
ceived in q jar close by, she made a
cross on tho brow of the dead woman.
in the impulse Of that passionate mo-
ment hardly thinking what she was
doing.
While thus engaged q man, treading
inaudibly ON his shoeless feet and wear
ing the sacred thread hanging from his
left shoulder to the right side, stole soft.

ABSOLUTELY PURE

being born again for q young man of
nineteen to begin to acquire the rudi-
ments of an education. But he did 1t
and climbed slowly, but surely, upward
until he reached the top OF the ladder.
He made a better man than Andrew
johnson and was far more digniied
and happier In his Office. Fillmore
became president because he was
worthy of it. Johnson was rolled into
the Office by the tidal wave of the civil
war. But they we're self. made men.
Garfield was known as the teacher
president, but John Adams and Arthur
also taught school. Eight OF the ear
lier presidents had no collegiate educa-
tion, but this is no argument against
the great advantage That such an edu-
cation gives. College education is a
great comfort, independent of it's being
a help to progress and advancement in
science and art. The limited knowl-
edge l acquired Ia a three.years'
course could not be bought with money.
1t furnished the tools Of my trade.
There Is a positive comfort in knowing
the origin of English words-the old
ones aud the new ones that are being
continually coined to keep up with
science aud discovery. 1t is a comfort
to know how to measure the distances
OF the sur and moon and stars and to
calculate eclipses and why the little
honey bee builds the cells in the honey
comb in hexagon shape and the laws
OF light and gravity. 1t is @ comfort
to an old man to be looked up to by his
children and grandchildren as the
pupils did to the schoolmaster in Gold
smiths school
"And still they gazed and still the wonder
That one small head could carry all i,
knew"
The danger of college life is, how.
ever, very great, and no boy should re
sent there just for the fun or the rame
or the polish Of it. The athletic sports
of it seem nowadays to be a prominent
feature of college education. My ideas
aoout that may be prejudices, but ii sc
they are so strong and | am so aptiqu ne
that l cannot change them. l have nc
more boys to educate and they who
have must take their W responsible
ty, but | feel as helpless as discour.
aged when l read the programmes o.
the matched games that are already
arranged for the coming summer
among the colleges. l can do nothing
but take a back seat and let the pro.

WOMEN LIVE THE LoNGER.-We
are accustomed to look upon women
as delicate creatures, but Ii is a well
established fact that on an average
they live longer thsu men. Statistics
which Lave recently been carefully
collect'd IN England show that cut OF
every ], 100000 persons 20 women and
only 81 men are alive attte age of one
hundred. That Is to say nearly three
times as many women as men become
centenar!aus. When wo remember
that women are more sensitive than
men, that their nervous organism Is
higher, that they are more subject to
disease and that they suffer more than
men, this fact becomes the more won
Gcriul. II may be said that women do
not. ss u rule, have TO work as hard as
men, but most Of the women who reach
eXtromc old age arc found in tho labor
ing classes and almost Invariably they
are mothers. II must be that while
N are more delicate than men
the very fncuess OF their fiber is an
element o. strength, Just rs steel is
stronger than iron though finer.

about as big as a -four barrel, and
stopped with alarm as they saw what
they supposed to be a tramp. But tho
dog was not at all frig htened. He
sprung at the stranger with an eloquent
growl, and in an instant he and Scruggs
were rolling ove and over on the hall
hoor. The children screamed, and
their mother came hurrying from the
kitchen. Scruggs shouted and coaxed
and swore, but the dog didn't see the
joke, and didn't recognize his voice,
and Mrs. Scruggs, and the oldest boy
were a long time separating the com
batants.
They sent for the doctor, who eau.
terized the wounds and bound them up
carefully. He says that Scruggs had
a narrow escape, and will not be able
to return to his duties for a fortnight.
The clerks in the Office say that it was
good enough for him.

and Got the Worst of il.
There is a clerk in the war depart
ment at Washington with a keen sense
of humor, who, for the purpose of
identification, | will call Daniel
Webster %Scruggs. He is what people
call "a funny man" He spends about
hall ths time ne should devote to his
Official duties thinking up conundrums,
puns, practical jokes and other dis.
agreeable things. When his fellow
clerks find mucilage in their ink bottles
and crooked pins in their chairs they
always bless Scruggs, but he has been
warned by tho chief OF his division so
many times hat he is less humorous
In the office nowadays than he used TO
90. But ut home, with his wife and
six children, there is no one to re-
strain him, and the ncighbors are
good-natured. Mrs. Scruggs is a
patient, long suffering woman, and
says she's go fused to it that she
doesn't mind him any more.". She is
nursing Scruggs just o with'a devo-
ton that shows her genuine affection
for the man who has been a perpetual
ormen during seventeen years of
married life. For Scruggs is y victim
Of his own humor.

tho idea OF shaving off his abundant
whiskers, and one evening after Office
hours, without saying a word about
his Intention, left them on the floor o,
a barber shop. When he got home he
thought he woul have some fun with
the children. So he turned his coat
and hat inside out, let himself into the
hallway OF his residence with q latch

like a tough, made some uee noises.
