A Sad Story.

A widow named Thielking came
in from Cape Girardeau last Sat-
urday to gst her son from the
Colony and being acquainted with
the editors 81 tier called on us while
here. Her lie story ought to make
anyone thankful whose lot is more
fortunate-and but few could be
more unfortunate. Born in Ham
over, Germany, fifty years ago and
one of 10 children who were left
orphans at a tender age, the moth
er was compelled to hire out as a
farm hand at SO a year and place
the children in homes virtually as
slaves. Mrs. Thielking grew up
without any schooling being COM
PEELED to work TO the limit OF en-
durance till OF age. BY this time
conditions we're somewhat inn
proved, yet she worked hard at
$50 a year, getting up at 3 a. IN,
to milk, feed, thresh with a fail,
or go out into the field. N
AS soon as able she came to the
United States, and here she found
"heaven on earth" as she express
ed it. But soon made matters
worse by marrying drunkard.
She was left a widow with three
small children whom she placed
in an asylum and went to work
again. She has now bought III
tie home and wants to get the chill
dren together. One of the sons
in the meantime was sent to the
Colony from the asylum and she
saw him the first time in five
years Saturday night. Neither
rccog ,izsd the other and it wal
sad to hear her tell of the meet
ing.
She said, ooh he looked SO stooI
ed and wrinkled, not like my boy
al ALL" as tears streamed dowr
hcr face She left with him OF
the 1850 train Sunday. Wi h al
her misfortunes we can imagin,
her happy once O in her snug
home with her three chi d en- abou

mass of misshape1 flesh.

UNREST PORTUGAL.

Has the republican administration OF
Portugal broken down, after barely
three months existence2 Statements
OF considerable detinitcness reached
Paris last night suggesting that the
question cen be answered afhrmatiyely.
1t is asserted, among other things, that
the British minister at Lisbon has tele-
graphed to his government that war
ship be sent there Immediately; that
the provisional government is no longer
able to rely on the army and navy, and
that three cruisers have consequently
been sent away from Lisbon on various
pretexts.
The news OF the anti-monarchical
outbreaks on October first reached
the world by way of Paris, and the fact
that last nights reports are given Gre
dence by the sober Temps adds weight
to them. The Temps news. in addi-
ton to stating there is disaffection in
the army and navy. mentions the rest
lessness Of the working classes, who are
bitter against the government, and are
making demands that it is impossible
for the latter to satisfy.
1t is also reported that the admins
tration has discovered that secret So
ciety is plotting to restore the mon
archy, and that the ringleadsrs have

Church Business Heads.

Philadelphia, Dec. 30.-That all city
churches need business managers as
we'll az pastors was the theory advanced
by J. f. McAfee, associate secretary Of
the Board OF Home Missions OF the
Presbyterian Church, at a conference
OF lay workers yesterday
According to Mr.. McAfec the Iaymcn
in tho Presbyterian Church are not al
lowed to take q sufficiently active part
in the executive organization of the
churches. This, he said, was bad for
the ministers. who were thus burdened
Hith an infinite number of details, cur
failing their time for spiritual affairs,
and the laymen were driven almost to
the verge OF rebellion. There are
more than two thousand out of the ten

JOLT FOR Tact HOUSE.

Cy Sulloway, OF New Hampshire,
the tallest republican in Congress and
as thoroughly republican as he is tall,
handed an awful Jolt to President Taft's
idea OF scientific" or by tariff COM
mission, revision for the tariff yester-
day. The jolt did not come as response
to importantly, but was spontaneously
volunteered, even forced upon the pub
lie. Another statesman had used the
expression in conversation in the hear
ing OF the New Hampshire statesman.
and the tall sycamore OF New England
said:
Scientific revision" is piece OF ar
rant nonsense. Even the term, "scien-
tiic revision, is painful to me. It is
the most nonsensical expression.
What is scientific revision p 1t is just
this, and no more:
I'VE figure what is the difference In
the cost OF production here and abroad,
We frame tariff law to meet that diff
ference. Tomorrow along comes the
German or some other foreign manu-
facturer and reduces or raises his wage
scale. Where's your scientific revis-
ion then? Scientific revision can be
scientific ONLY over nieht.n

on the ground leading from the scene
OF the crime, Mitchell Garland, 20
years old, veteran Of the civil war,
and bis son, NJ. j. Garland, jr., 50,
we're arrested yesterday at Hampton,
for the murder OF a ncgress, Jessie
Banks, and are being held for hear
ing. The Banks woman was murder
ed at Phoebus Wednesday night and
her body was found in vacant lot yes
terday. The trail OF blood led directly
from the spot to the room OF NJ. j.
Garland. Marks on her throat showed
that she had been choked, besides
others denoting beating. The two
Garlands have refused to make any
statement regarding the crime or charge
but the police say they have decidedly
strong evidence against the men.
