Frightens, But Does No Harm to
Children Who Approach Him.
While playing tag at Oak Tree
Tuesday evening, a party of children
came across a crazy man, who is
wandering about this section with
out restraint of any sort. The child
rem at first supposed that he was
one of their party, it being dusk and
impossible to see clearly.
Upon calling to him he immediate-
ly vaulted the fence and on his hands
and knees started at a lively pace to
run across a cornfield. The child
rem were badly frightened and ran
home as quickly as possible. Inves-
tigation the next morning disclosed
the fact that the man is a harmless
crazy man, who imagines that he has
assassinated the president, and fees
at the approach of any person. OF
late farmers have been disturbed by
some mysterious person looking in
through the windows while they
were at supper. He lives by stealing
provisions from back pantries, etc.
He will be placed in an asylum

ASBURY Park, Aug. 24:-Do

Last Sunday a school bluefish dis

Hid Crime for Nine Years.

Binghampton, N. Y, August 3d.
Nine years ago Mrs. John Coleman,
so she claims, murdered her two
year-old daughter in Towanda, Pa.
For nine years she kept the secret to
herself. She has been a wanderer
and an outcast, pursued wherever
she went by the thought of her
crime.
Two months ago she was sent to
the Pentecostal State Mission by
Recorder Roberts. Last Thursday,
during the revival camp meeting at
Port Dickinson, she made public
confession of her alleged crime.

Death OF Mr.. and MRS. Clarence Bishop.

= =
On Monday morning, July Both,
1906, at 9 o'clock a. M, God came
and spoke to a soul, and said that
time on earth for him should be no
more. This soul was that of Clar-
ence Bishop. He was born August
30, 1882, and was, therefore, twenty
three years and eleven months Old
cut down in the bloom of life. A
few short weeks before he was as
stout and healthy looking a young
man as any one cares to see, but
typhoid fever robbed the cheek of
it's bloom, and dragged him to his
tomb. Just twelve hours later-at
2 p. m.-God came again, showing
His power by taking this mans wife
mot only his companion in life, but
also in death and in the grave.
Mrs. Jessie Wright Bishop was
born November 7, 1881, aged "a
years, 8 months, % days.
They leave one child, girl, Lois,
aged little over two years, an or
phan-without father or mother.
Jessie had lived in this commu-
nifty Friendship nearly all her life,
and seemed to be loved by all who
knew her. That dread disease, con.
sumption, seized her, and we all know
what that fatal disease means. 1t
certainly seems that these two lives
were Joined together by God, there
being only twelve hours between
their deaths.
Jessie united with the church at
Friendship when quite child, and
remained member there until last
April, when she moved her member
ship to Seneca, where they were liv.
ing at that time. So far as we know,
she loved, obeyed and served her
Master. A short time before her
death che called her loved ones to
her bedside and told them TO meet
her in heaven.
As to Mr.. Bishops life as a Chris
tian we know nothing. He lived in
this country only short while, and
while here it was not our privilege
to know him, but we trust it was
well with his soul.
They leave a host of relatives and
friends to mourn their deaths. After
funeral services, conducted by their
pastor, Rev. o. NJ. Abney, of Seneca,
they we're laid to rest in the same
grave to await the resurrection
morn.
They have left us here below,
Wondering why God would have it 80;
Father and mother, both have gone home,
Leaving little Lois, an orphan, to roam.
We know our God is au all-wise God,
Laying those we love beneath the sod;
So we will strive to meet those gone
before,
Where partings, farewells and tears are
known no more.
Let us so live here below
That when we to Glory go,
We can take our loved ones by the hand,
And forever around Gods throne stand.
