A Sensation at a Funeral.

A dispatch from Blufton, Indiana,
savs:-The sermon of the Rev. Clarence
G.. Miller, pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church of this city, at the funeral of the
late Congressman Martin, has caused a
sensation all over the district. In this SER
mon the minister called up to view all the
vices of the deceased and gave scathing
review of the dead Congressman s life.
Among other things, Mr. Miller said that
Mr.. Martin had been born and reared in a
Christian home, but left that home and its
teachings at the age of IL and entered the
army to serve his country.
''It would have been far better, said
Mr.. Miller, ''if Mr. Martin had been shot
on the geld of battle than to have lived to
lead the life he did, He was in public of
fee the better portion of his life, and made
in one office 500, 600, but was sent home
for burial in cheap pine coffin furnished
by the Government.
He referred to Ex- Congressman Martin
as being victim of the drink habit, and
said: II have seen him sit here in the
church and frown in displeasure as have
spoken on the temperance question. His
life has been tragedy, and the use of
liquor has made it So -
There was great indignation on the part
of the bar, and had there been leader
the entire membership would have left the
church.
Mr. Martins wife and daughter were,
of course, in attendance, and the daughter
broke down and sobbed bitterly when she
heard her father life arraigned. Grand
Army men are indignant

Old Churchyards.
From Notes and Queries.

1t would appear that certainly SO early
as about A D. $50 spaces Of ground ad-
joining churches were inclosed and conse-
Grated for burial, and by a canon of the
ninth century every grave was to be es
teemed sacred, to be adorned with the sign
of the cross and to be preserved from tres
pass and violation by dogs and cattle.
Many churchyards have history far older
than the churches which stand in them,
being originally places appropriated to re-
ligious assemblies, divine service being per-
formed there, until at length the church
was added for greater honor aud conve-
nience
It has been noted as curious fact that
in large majority of cases the churchyards
are on the north side of the church and
on the north side of the road leading to
them There is superstition among
many old fashioned folk that the north
side of the churchyard is less sacred than
the rest of the conscerated ground. TO
be buried there, wrote Durandus, the
great fourteenth century ecclesiastic, is,
in the language of the eastern countries,
to be buried out of sanctuary. Hence
the position was largely appropriated to the
graves of suicides, unbaptized persons and

old.fashioned painters paint, lead and

Lead and oil chalks off in three years:

Devoe lead and zinc is about as good
in three years as it was the day the

Zinc is the secret of it, no secret at all.
good many painters know zinc; some
mix it in with their lead. We grindit in e.:
not little: good deal.
It's the zinc and the grinding that does
it. You can't mix zinc by hand. We
grind it by machinery.
