A LOSS TO HISTORY.
Death Prevented MT. Voorhees, From Com.
pleting His Lincoln Lecture.

Death Prevented MT. Voorhees, From Com
pleting His Lincoln Lecture.
The late Senator Voorhees, hoped to
live long enough after his retirement
from public life to complete lecture
upon Abraham Lincoln, the chief value
Of which would have rested upon his
personal recollections of the martyred
president
The late David Davis of Illinois once
said that there were but three men in
the world who thoroughly understood
Abraham Lincoln - himself, Leonard
SWEET of Chicago and Daniel w. Voor.
hees.
Voorhees, travelled the same judicial
circuit in central Illinois with Abraham
Lincoln from 1851 to 1869, and the two
became intimate friends. They were
continually together while travelling the
circuit, often sleeping in the same bed
at country taverns or wayside houses.
In speaking of this Voorhees, said
they often sat up till daybreak talking.
Voorhees, expected to make this lecture
the browning work of his life. That he
was prevented from carrying out his
plan is distinct loss to the students Of
American history. -Pittsburg Dispatch.

CHICKENS COME HIGH.
A Justice Fixes the Price at o33 Per
Fowl.

A Justice Fixes the Price at o33 Per
Fowl.
Justice Kersten of Chicago charges
e33 apiece for chickens sometimes. Not
long ago he made three men pay lit
tie more than that sum. And the chick
ems were not very pretty either.
This is the way it came about One
night recently Officers Casey and Baynes
saw three men at Larrabee and Vedder
streets. One of the three had gunny
sack, and it seemed to be full, although
the men were sober. The officers want
ed to know what was in the sack, and
the three men would not tell them.
SO the three men went to the station,
and the desk sergeant went to the bot
tom of the mystery. The sack was full
Of chickens. The men registered az
Frank Miller, Edward Murphy and Will
liam Stafford, and the charge OH the
book opposite their names was burglary
and disorderly conduct.
When arraigned in Justice Kersten s
court, they could not fully explain
where they had acquired the chickens,
but John Haggerty Of 1876 Vedder street
said the fowls had been stolen from his
coop. He identified the poultry and
wanted something done. So the court
fined each defendant 500. That makes
$500. Nine chickens at $500 is $S8. 9S
fowl The prisoners refused to pay
the price, and SO they went to Jail. -

WILD MAN WITH A KNIFE,
He 10 Loose In the Woods and Thirstins
For Blood.

He 10 Loose In the Woods and Thirsting
For Blood. 49,
A workman in the clay mines near
Perth Amboy, N. j., is roaming through
the woods, armed with big knife and
showing signs of acute insanity, and it
is feared that he may injure or kill
some one before he is captured
Recently George Novack rushed into
Justice Stricker's office and demanded a
warrant for the arrest of Samuel Ho-
gan, who, he said, had tried to stab him.
The men board at the same house, and
at the breakfast table Hogan suddenly
became a raving maniac and stood up
and brandished q knife, shouting, Il am
the devilp
The boarders scattered and fed, No
vack being followed into the woods by
the man with the knife. The chase grew
80 hot that Novack's life was in danger,
when one of the boarders caught the
lunatic's knife hand.
Baked in his desire to shed blood,
Hogan went back to the house and lock-
ed himself in his room. Two officers
were sent for. who, after an unsuccess-
full parley with the man, broke down
the door with an AK. The maniac stood
with the knife uplifted as the officers
rushed for him. A shot was fred to
frighten him. when, with yell, Hogan
leaped from the window, carrying the
sash with him, and disappeared, run
ming into the woods. Armed men are
searching for him. philadelphia Press

II HUNG CHANGES TREE.

Yang Yu.

It Was Planted at Grants Tomb by
Yang Yu.
Mr.. Yang Yu, formerly Chinese min
lister to the United States and now spe-
cial representative of the Chinese en-
peror to the courts of st. Petersburg,
Berlin and The Hague, recently planted
a tree at the grave Of General Grant
which Lii Hung Chang desired should
be placed there in his name, the tomb
not having been completed when the
viceroy was here.
Mr.. Yu and his suit left the Waldorf
hotel in carriages, and at the Fifth ave-
nue. and Fifty-ninth street entrance to
Central park were met by squad of
mounted police, who escorted the dis
tinguished visitors to the tomb, where
Mr.. Yu planted the tree in the name of
Lii Hung Chang on the site of the small
tomb, which had just been torn down.
President Mcmillan and Colonel Van
Rensselaer, Cruger Of the park board ac-
companied the party.
The tree, which was sent here from
China, belongs to what is termed the
''maidenhair" variety, according to Su-
perintendent Parsons Of the park de-
partment. 1t is about seven feet in
height, and it is believed will thrive
very well. New York Herald.

LIVES IN THE CHURCH.
A Pastor Who. 1t Is Said, Also Acts as
Elder, Deacon and Sexton.


A queer congregation worships at 270
West Eleventh street, New York. 1t be-
longs to the Holland Reformed church.
At recent meeting of the synod held
in Jamaica, N. Y, it was officially read
out of existence.
According to the Rev. DR.. Thomas q.
Lowe, Elder Henry j. Vernois is theo-
logical Pooh Bah. He and his family
live in the basement Of the church. DIR.
Lowe says they are practically the en-
tire congregation; that Elder Vernois
acts as pastor, elder, deacon and sexton,
and frequently his family are the only
ones to attend the service.
The elder was not at home when in
quiry was made at the church. but his
wife was, and she was angry because OF
DR.. loves statements:
"Well, neverl' she exclaimed. 81
can't imagine how the doctor could
have said such things. One thing sure.
he can't close the church. We hold the
deed from the Hollanders and shall con-
tinue to hold it, Sometimes we have as
many az ak or eight aside from our
own family at church, and three weeks
ago there were 30 in church. Neither is
Mr.. Vernois the only elder. There are
others."
A vigorous fight will be made against
closing the house Of worship or dispos-
ing Of the property. Service will be
held at the old stand in spite Of every.
thing except providential interference.
