According to Police Officer Sweeney
Mamie Cobb, n young white woma n
who lives on Fenchurch street, was
forced to jump overheard at the Nor
folk and Western docks night before
last by a man who was with her. OFF,
Ger Sweeney appeared upon the scene
from the water. and the man with her
disappeared. Witnesses who were
present. among whom was Henry
,Roane, colored, support the story, 1t
Is said, that the woman was threaten
ed and practically forced into the wa
ter. @l7 ~
Roane, the colored man, Is said 70
have heard the man abuse the woman
and tell her that she had to jump into
the river. The woman, 1t appears, was
drunk. and a charge of drunkenness
was preferred against her. In Police
Court yesterday morning Justice Tom
lin fined her 81. which was afterwards
RENTED. 1t was denied by the wo-
mans friends that she was forced into
the river, but officer Sweeney, 1t is
said, was prepared to prefer a serious
charge against her escort on the docl,
had she been drowned.

The many friends of the Union Mis-
sion will Sbe panied to learn that Rev.
Charles I. Stengle, for nearly q year
past the efficient and earnest superiin-
{tendents OF the Union Mission on lower
Church street, last night sent in his
resignation OF that office. The reasons
that have Impelled Rev stengle to take
this step are clearly set forth In his
letter of resignation, which reads as
follows:
Mr. S. @, Collins,
sEg President Board of Directors, Union
Mission: e
My Dear. Sir and Brother,--I hereby
tender my resignation as superintend-
ent; of Union Mission, to take effect at
the close OF the year, for which 1 was
elected-November 9Th.
In taking this action allow me to say
that the treatment which I have re-
sceiyed from yourself and the other
members OF the board has always been
of "a higher order than I deserved.
ss have never felt worthy. of the Of
flee which have held during the, last
ten, months; I thank God, however, that
with his help, I have been able to pluck
a few brands from the eternal burning.
1t Is my intention to return to the
work Of the regular ministry, and very
early notification Is thus given that you
may have ample time in the selection
OF my. successor.
pray Gods richest blessings upon
the Union Mission and her heroic sup
porters, and wish for her a long and
successful life.
In making this notification of q
severance of our official relationship, I
trust that the bonds or brotherly love
existing between us may
grow stronger and more durable as the
days 30 by until we are NIL transferred
from the church militant to the church
which is before the Throne
OF God.
pray that my successor may have
abundant success in this great field OF
labor, as well as the united support of
the Christians of this city in general.
With much love, I am
Yours, in His name.

WORDS OF WISDOM :

It is hard to believe that others
cannot see wbas seems plain to US ;
But we cannot see thesuu at night,
and for all that it is quite plain to
those on She other side OF the
world. Everything is in the posi-
5aon one happens to occupy.
There are four kinks Of wit ;
Humor,, satire, wit itself aud after
sit, which is the comm6nest OF all,
and consists of the bright things
We think of when it is too, late to
say them.
A just knowledge of the maxims
We ought to follow in the eoarse
of life is the principal object of
wisdom; and virtue consists in
putting them constantly in prac-
flee.
Education begins at the motber's
Knee, and veery word spoken
within the hearing of little chill
dren tends toward the Forlnationof
their character.
OF all virtues, magnanimity is
the rarest : slere are a hundred
persons Of merit for ore who
willingly Acknowledges It in an
osher.

THE EFFECT OF
RATS AS FOOD

The Lahore (India) Tribune
quotes a Chinanrnan's explanation
of the Use Of rats for fooG pur-
poses as Follows:
"What a CARAT is to a horse $
coat rat is to the human hair.
Neither fact can be explained, but
every horsen1an- knows that a
regimen of carrots will make his
horse smooth and as lustrous
as velvet, and the Chinese, ss-
pecially the women, know that
rats used as food stop the falling
out CT Fir and makes the soft,
silky az B beautiful, l have seen
it triedsmany times"
