Chicago, May 12. The three Italians arrested here for alleged participation in the murder of the Italian, Lemon Pedler Caruso, practically confessed the murder this afternoon. They believe that Jurado, who was arrested in New York, was on his wav to Italy. They state that he wit nessed the deed, however, and demanded a share of the monev taken from Caruso as the price of his silence and then aided them in shipping the body in a trunk to Pittsburg. The detectives declare that the confession is sufficient to cause the hanging of all three of the men. The murder was perpetrated solely to ob tain $300 or $400. which it was known Caru so had in his possession. Shutting Down Mills. Eau Clairb, Wis., May 12. Fifty men, who were laying pipes for the water works this morning, were overpowered by a crowd of 200 laborers and forced to quit work. The crowd marched to Pioneer and also to Sherman saw mills and forced them to shut down. Some violence was used. All other saw mills was shut down before the strikers arrived, except one. The demand of the water works strikers is tor $1.50 per day. The saw mill employees made no demand but were forced by the strikers to suspend work. Instantly Killed. Pittsburg, Pa.. May 12. By a runaway accident last night, Jarvis Warriwright was instantly killed and Jacob Vetter was probably fatally injured, while two others in the wagon sustained painful cuts and bruises. Murder and Suicide. Springfield, O May 12. Because of her refusal to live with him, John Neneighbor, yesterday, shot his wife, perhaps fatally, and then killed himself. 1 Flood iu Texas. Galveston, May 12. The Rio Grande has overflowed at Edin burgh, submerging thousands of acres. The corn crop will be a total loss. CONGRESS OP CHURCHES. Tbe Assembly at Hanford—Represents, tires of Various Denominations Discuss tbeir Religion. Hartford, May 12. The congress of churches at Hartford. Con necticut, was called to order at 10.15 A. M. by Governor Harrison. A large audience was present, including many clergymen and others from all parts of the country. Rev. Dr. N. J. Burton opened the discussion on the function of worship in promoting the growth of the church. _ The Rev. Samuel M. Hopkins of Auburn, New York, followed, with remarks on the same subject. Rev. Father Grafton of the Church ot the Advent, of BostoD, said that he welcomed all the baptized as Christians,for all were one in Christ. It was not unity of church which had been lost but union among Christians. Rev. Thomas K. Beecher ot Elmira, follow ed. He said that the basis of the truth of worship was the Holy Ghost the comforter. President Long of Antioch college follow ed, declaring that the 19th century would go down into history as an age of light and liber ty, and explaining the progress- of liberalism since the century opened. The last speaker was Professor Pliny Earl Chase, a Quaker, of Harvard College, Pa. He said that worship must be the worship of Christ. Christ and the Holy Spirit are the watchword of quakerism. At the evening session of the congress of churches, Rev. W. Gladden speaking on the attitude of the secular press in America to ward religion, said that the attitude of the average American editor toward religion is one of calm superiority. It is not the only topic he handles with an air of mastery; art, philosophy, medicine, law, political science, social economy, he understands just as well as he does religion. There are exceptions,but the typical journalist is nothing if infallible. The daily papers which do not give a propor tion of space to religious news, he said, fail to survive. There is, he said, a few daily journals in the country by which editorial comment and criticism on current religious events are intelligently made. He appealed to tilt newspapers to give still more attention to religious news. Another result to be desired is that the newspaper may rise above its present business ot inflicting public opinion and take the leadership of it, attaining prophetic functions and dignity. Clear conviction and brave utterance are now needed. The influence of the counting room upon the editorial utterances is far too appar ent and it is not often successfully resisted. Newspapers generally are owned by men whose principle purpose is to make money out of them. Herein is their weakness as in struments of righteousness. If the press is ever given the power, which the pulpit cer tainly has possessed and has not wholly lost, it will only be when its utterances are direct ed toward some higher end than pecuniary profit and shaped by some other force than public opinion. The press can never be of itself a rejuvenating power, save as it pos sesses faith that it can fight for and face the frowning and waning subscription list. It is greatly to be desired that the secular press of America should continue to maintain a friendly attitude toward religion, but it is far more important that it should have a religion of its own. Mr. Gladden was followed by Rev. Julius VV.Ward and the discussion was further con tinued by Rev. Dr. James M. Pullman of Lynn, Mass. He said he gave as a result of inquiries he made to several leading editors that in its commercial attitude the newspaper collects and gives such religious news as its readers want and, editorially, it advocates all the religious movements on their ethical side. Its altitude is one of absolute toleration of all sects, and free criticism of all extravagan ces, and it ignores sectarian theology. The mephistopheles press, that loves nothing and reverences nothing, does not flourish among us. The speaker had cut out 83 editorial com ments on the death of James Fiske from sec ular papers and with one single exception there was not a scrap of theology in one of them. The career of Robert Ingersoll through the country affords a searching test of the secular press and discloses a real reverence for religion on its part. Gen. Hawley followed. He said he had looked into a Tory magazine of 1832 and found there the most melancholy predictions as to the evils the free press would surely work. Then in the Christian Review of 1844 he found the prediction that the free press had been brought in as an agecy to break up the existing despotisms. The second was nearer correct. The speaker illustrated the growth of the press in this county by the census figures. In 1850 the sheets printed were 420,000,000, and in 1880, 2.0G7,000,000, and of the 11,314 periodicals printed in the United States, 8803 constitute the secular press, devoted to news, politics and family reading. If this press is badly irreligious, God save the republic. Out of our 8000 daily papers not one professes to be religious. The secular papers have been preparing the way for unity in great things and charity in small. They have no full creed but the mass of them believe this. But the press publishes nearly everything. How do all these people know what Robert Ingersoll has been saying to c rndemn it? Have they all been to him or have they read it? If you don’t want things in the paper you must not have them hap pen. You can’t present the condition of the country without telling what Ingersoll says. General Hawley said he didn’t believe that the pulpit had lost power. No other orator had the chance the minister has. Human voice never can be supplemented by old type. You ministers have the most powerful instru mentality ever vouchsafed to mankind, all wealth of tradition and sentiment and asso ciation, all there is in the Christian church to draw from, and you complain that the poor secular newspaper is drawing from the strength of the pulpit. If so it is your fault, not the newspaper's. The last speaker was Rev. James Freeman Clarke uf Boston, who said that so long as the church was sectarian it coaid not expect assistance from the secular press. If the church shall lay aside sectarianism and rise in universal principle of love to God and to man, and make every principle of social pro gress its theme then it will lind its oben in the secular press.

New York, May 12. “Father is suffering considerable pain this afternoon’’ said Col. Fred Grant, “owing to the chillness of the atmosphere during his drive. He did not dictate any today on his book, but confined himself to reviewing some already written up.” Dr. Douglass went into the house at 10 o'clock and intended to stay all night if the General was not easier. FOREIGN NEWS ENGLISH PARLIAMENT. Gladstone Again Confronts the Opposi tion With a Ringing Speech. London, May 12. In the Home of Commons last evening, while advocating his motion for a second reading of the credit bill, Gladstone said that the government was acting in accord with the Ameer’s wishes. He hoped to present papers 1 by the end of the week in support of his ar rangement. Daring the debate on the motion of cen sure, Sir Stafford Northcote denied that the conservatives desired to fight Russia. He said they only wanted a distinct frontier ar rangement with the Ameer, in order to enable England to defend it, and a clear treaty with Russia, defining the points beyond which an advance would be regarded as a casus belli. Gladstone said that Sir Stafford Northcote repudiated the grounds of a motion which had been proposed and approved by his support ers. The opposition has pressed the motion without waiting for the promised papers, and made up their deficiency of knowledge by a variety of baseless suppositions. When the papers were presented it might appear that Sir Peter Lumsden had returned in full con formity with the government policy, and that a frontier had been secured through friendly relations between Lord Dufferin and the Ameer. It might also be found that when the government took the gloomy view of their position, they were doubtful of gaining the object they were contending tor. and that his more cheerful speech on the following Monday was made when those objects had been gained. It was not without deep pain and regret that he had seen the change in the attitude of opposition as soon as the blessed prospect of peace appeared, and when it was found that war had been averted which would have been a calamity to England, Rus sia, civilized mankind and'the whole world. fLoud and prolonged cheers. 1 Chaplin, conservative, charged that the expenditure of so much blood and treasure and the ruin that had been caused in the Soudan were due to efforts to save the seats of an imbecile ministry. Lord Randolph Churchill admitted that the meaning of the amendment was to enable the ministry to quit their seata with grace and dignitv. The Tories, he said, had shown that they were not the war party, hut that those ho had obtain*-1 the vote of 11,000,01)0 pounds were. After ti e hill was read the second time, the H' Us ordered the redistribution of seats bill lor the third reading. In the House of Commons this afternoon, the channel and tunnel bill was rejected. The motion of Sir Edward Lopes, liberal conservative, to insert the clause in the regis tration act charging the expenses of registry to the general treasury being called up, Gladstone strongly opposed it. The motion was rejected—280 to 258 London, May 12. In the House of Lords this afternoon, Earl Granville corrected his statement of yesterday concerning the Afghan dispute, and said the agreement reached between the English and Russian representatives in respect to the Afghan boundary proceedings was not com pleted in London as yesterday’s statement would imply, but had been put in shape for submission to Russia for acceptance. THE DEFEATED MOTION. Thx Timex Thinks it Was Out ol Place— The Standard’s Opinion—The Af ghan Terms Not Yet to be Published. London, Msy 12. The Times, commenting on Lord George Hamilton's motion of censure, says the oppos ition’s case was presented at a proper time. Lord George, however, the Times thinks, ought to have withdrawn his amendment after the official documents concerning the Afghan question had been promised, and should have reserved the indictment for a time when he could have made it complete. The Standard says the majority by which the government carried their point will not rehabiliate their reputation. The papers on the Afghan question which are to be published on Saturday, will not contain the terms of the frontier convention, which will not be made public until the con vention has been concluded. After the government explanation in the House of Commons yesterday, the opposi tion were half inclined to withdraw Lord Hamilton's motion, and the debate fell flat. The members showed far more anxiety about the result of last night’s division, which is certain to be very close. Grave doubts are expressed as to whether the government will adhere to the decision to resign, if defeated, and the result will depend on the attitude of the Parnellites. THE DYNAMITERS. The Trial of Barton and Cunningham Continued. London, May 12. At the trial of Cunningham and Burton this morning, the counsel for the prisoners informed Judge Hawkins that the governor of Newgate Prison had refused to recognize His Honor’s permit allowing them to hold an interview with their clients. The attorney general suggested that the counsel for the prisoners be allowed to hold a private inter view with the prisoners, and this was grant ed. A detective named Weeks from New York, testified that Burton arrived in New Y'ork on the steamship St. Lamente, on the 13th of March. 1834. Other witnesses testified to the events of the 13th of May. Attorney General James, in offering the evidence of these witnesses, said he did not propose to connect the prison ers with the dynamite affairs of that day, but simply desired to prove the existence of treasonable plots. Other witnesses were then examined for the purpose of proving the movements of the prisoners from December until the date of arrest. Strong evidence was adduced connecting Cunningham with the explosion on the Metropolitan Railwav. but the efforts of the prosecution to connect Burton with the same outrage failed. The court adjourned until tomorrow. Transfer of Military and Medical Stores. St. Petersbcbg, May 12. The imperial council of war have ordered the transfer of military and medical stores from Krasnovod to Atkabad. and have in structed the commissary department to get ready to equip 200,000 reserves'. News From Egypt. Cairo, May 12. An immense sensation has been caused here by Lord Hartington's announcement of the government's intention to withdraw the British troops from the Soudan, and a com plete evacuation is expected." THE WAILING CRY. A Grand Kick Over the Present Em barrassed Condition ol the De partment ol Agriculture. Washington, Mat 12. Commissioner Coleman has discovered that the condition of affairs in the department of agriculture, which to say the least, is em barrassing. Soon after he entered upon his duties his attention was called to the fact that the labratorv fund was nearly exhausted. In order to avoid making a deficiency he was compelled to furlough several employees until the end of the fiscal year without pay. Now it appears that several other specific appropriations are in like condition of ex haustion, and many minor branches of the work must be temporarily suspended. The statistical division suffers a loss of all the State agents, and other suspensions will nec essarily be made. The condition of affairs in the seed divis ion in some respects is inexplicable. The appropriation for this division for the current fiscal year was #100,000. On the first of the present month there remained only #32 of this fund in the treasury. The estimate made in detail by the head of this division and approvad by the commissioner for the purchase of seeds called for an expenditure of 870,000, which would leave 830,000 to pay the expenses of packing and distribution. The amount actually expended for seeds from this fund seems" to be $82,000. As a result there are several kinds of seeds on hand in large quantities with no money to pay the expense of packing and distribution". There are thus in excess 13,000 pounds of beet sugar seed, between seven and eight hundred bushels ol peas and between six and seven hundred bushels of sorghum seed There has been distributed during the past year about 5000 pounds ot beet sugar seed and the supply on (jam) is sufficient to last i nearly two years at that rate. -Some ot tile peas od hand cost $7 a bushel. A part of the sorghum seeds have been emptied from the sacks on the floor and boys are employed to stir them around as a meas ure of precaution to keep them from spoiling. A wide variety of prices seems to have been paid for seed, for example; 1700 bushels of sorghum seed were purchased from New York firms at prices ranging front •2.35 to 82.05 per bushel, while 300 bushels of the same variety was obtained from a western man at 81 per bushel. The chemist of the depot said today that at the time this stock was purchased it was sold as low as 25 cents a bushel in Nebraska; but 81 a bushel would have been an exceedingly good price for the very beet quality. He said there was no rea son for the purchase of either sorghum or beet. There was no purpose in view there was no new variety to be tried. It is said many other discoveries have been made, which justify the suspicion, to state it mildly, that some of the details of the depart mental management have latterly not been carefully looked after. THE ROLLER SKATE CONTEST. The Attendance Very Small—Snowdon Still Leading. Nkw Yohk, May 12. The spectators of the roller skating match were very few this morning. It is reported that Omelia and Walton had retired. Harri man was in good form,and skated easier that} yesterday. Snowden looked worn and hag gard. Of the others, Schock and Maddocks appeared the freshest. The score at noon was as follows: Snowdon, 372 Omelia, 235 Emery, 255 Maddocks, 368 Walton, 268 A. Boyst, 330 Shock, 200 W. Boyst, 365 Francis, 262 Reynolds, 319 Harriman, 308 Unless there is an increase in the attend ance at the skating contest before Thursday, the managers of the affair will be obliged to draw heavily on their bank acconnt to pay bills. There were less than 1000 people pres ent at the Garden tonight. The skaters,how ever, did not seem to mind the slim attend ance. There were several spirts of speed between Maddocks, Walton and Snowdon, the former invariably coming out ahead of his rivals. Two more men have fallen out of the race, namely Reynolds and Emery. The first retired this afternoon with a record of 326 miles and the latter with a record of 255 miles. Snowdon’s strong lead has made him the favorite of betting men, Nkw York, May 13. At 1 A. M., the score stands Snowdon, 491 Omelia, 341 Emery, 256 Maddocks, 474 Walton, 368 A. Boyst, 430 Shock, 450 W. Boyst, 478 Francis, 361 Reynolds, 326 Harriman, 380 IN THE NORTHWEST. A Force Sent to Clarke’* Crossing— Kepoits ot steady Fighting. Winnipko, May 12. The telegraph wires are still down between Qu’Appelle and Humboldt, and no further word has been received from the front. Great anxiety it felt. A Saskatchewan Landing dispatch says an order was issued Sunday night by Gen. Lawrie that the entire corps of the 7th Futileers and two companies of the Midland battalion should proceed at once to Clarke's Crossing. They left Monday morn ing at 8 o'clock, on barges. The force num bers nearly 350 men, under command of Col. Deason. They expect to reach Clarke's Crossing in about fire days. Two companies of the Halifax battalion left Swift Current for this point Monday night, reaching here Tuesday evening. They will remain until further orders. Another small detachment of mounted men have gone from Birtle to join Col. Boulton. Ottawa, May 12. Geo. Middleton has ordered up fore t to strengthen his column, and wants more can non and Gattling guns. The Brice battalion hat been called out. and the Montreal garri son artillery has started for the tront. The Prince of Wales Rifles of Montreal and the 02nd Regiment of St John, N. B., have also been ordered forward. Wixxepeo, May 12 The telegraph lines were repaired today and some further tidings of the fighting at Batouche have come through. The casualty roll of the troops up to this morning included two men killed and 15 wounded. The fight ing is still going on today, and Gen. Middle ton is anxious for more troops. Numerous reinforcements have been ordered to proceed to hit assistance. This it taken to mean that the government haa more alarming news than haa yet been made public, at no one here can tee any great necessity for bringing up more troops. It may be that the government haa once more got into an unnecessary panic At all events, Gen. Middleton ia evidently not prepared to storm the half breed stronghold and intends to starve them out. harraaa them into surrender or avrait reinforcements. Ctaana'a Crossing, May IS. Nears from the front up to Monday morn ing it to the edect that fighting had been going on up to that time since Saturday morning and aras commenced for the third day arhen the mrsteoger left. BULLDUZlNt; THE PRESIDENT. The Maine Democratic Crmmsle— Big Tempest ia a Teapot. [Boston Journal Special.] Wasiiiiioton, May 11. Ex-Uov. Plaisted of Bangor, Klias Milliken and K. C. Allen of Angusta, arrived in Washington today- and called at the White House and postoflce department At the White House they informed the President that they'had come to ask him to recogntxe the entire democratic party ot the State of Maine, and the wishes of a large numher of the republicans, and to appoint Col. Morton as postmaster of Augusta. They told the President that Col. Morton had no rival, that the democracy urged no other candidate, and that he had no opposition except that of the two Senators. They urged the President to disregard this interference and what they were pleased to call the “impertinent dicta tion of the t enators,” and to exercise hit right of selection. At the postoffice depart ment the delegation notified Mr. Vilas that they would tile a larg. numher of additional applications for Col. Morton tomorrow. The postmaster general expressed surpri-e at this, and intimated, they- say, that he had not thought a stronger budget of papers possible. The delegation arranged tor a hearing Wed nesday, at w hich they will present the case to the President and postmaster general Mr. Piaisted said this evening that the delegation will confine their attention solely to the Au gusta postotfiee until that is settled. In his opinion there is no doubt that Morton will be appointed. J FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. New York I'lmlme Market.

§»Bg §tnntbtt fmmuL Aumita. Wednesday Horning, May 13 Washington is to have the new Catholic University. A site has been Tarnished on the road to the Soldiers’ Home, and the lot contains 65 acres. A party of Mormons have arrived in Washington to protest against what they term “the unjust enforcement of the op pressive Edmunds law.” The municipal elections held in Indiana last week, were not contested generally on partisan grounds, but the republicans held their own and made some gains. The friends of John Kelly of Tammanv sav he is in good health, that he keeps qniet from choice, but will make himself felt in political circles when the campaign opens. _ The democrats of Maine who have gone to Washington to bolldoze the President into the appointment of Morton are en gaged in mighty mean business. They are making a great boo about a very small calf. Fn bin efforts to please the “old-fashioned democrats,” the young Democracy, the ex rebels and the mugwump* all at once. Cleveland’* coarse is as sinuous and as ugly a* that of the worm fence, says the Tribune. General F,ogan remarks that he think* the democrats must be for him for senator, or they would not have staid at home and allowed a republican to be elected to the State senate, from a strong democratic district. _ leading democrat* of Maine have mus tered strong at Washington and stormed the White House in favor of certain ap pointments in this State, among them Morton for postmaster of this city. Mor ton is a heavy load. _ The President has revoked two bad ap pointments, but he has allowed many others equally as objectionable to stand, and the appointees to take possession of the places to which they were appointed. The President had better turn the “rascals” out. The defeateddemocratlr,candidate in the Illinois representative district, where an election was just held, bears the ominous name ol Deeper He has been trying to “jump the claim” of Weaver, the elected republican, but his democratic frie:ds have now about given it up. The Democratic (lovernor ol Pennsyl vania has vetoed a bill to supply head sloucs to the graves of honorably dis charged soldiers and sailors who die in in digent circumstances. He denounces the bill as a preposterons one. The virus of copoerheadism still exists in the democra tic party. Kben F. Pillsbury will take possession to-dav of the office to which he has been appointed. His successor will walk into the place soon alter Congress meets if the republican senators understand themselves. The country will approve the making of State Stealing odious by the rejection of such a man. The establishment of a quarantine sta tion in Penobscot Hay, says tbe Mt.

Senator Blackburn is reported as very angry at the President's refusal to com mission Blackburn’s brother as commis sioner of Internal revenue, now that his offensive rebel letter has been brought to public notice. Blackburn says that the refusal is an affront to every man who fought on the Southern side in the war, while the President is only too glad of an excuse not to give the eldor Blackburn an office. The owners of the Canadian steamship line, the White Cross, eertainly have bad luck. Four vessels have been lost. The Daniel Stelnman was wrecked off Samhro Island only about a year ago; and now the Helvetia, alter knocking about in the iee in the’ Bay of St. Lawrence tor days, has gone to the bottom. Fortunately all on board were saved. It is a singular (hot that the commander of the Helvetia is tbe same man who was in charge of the Stelnman on her last trip, and this was his first voyage since .that unfortunate one. Mr. Cromwell could have better en dured his disappointment at failing to re oaive the appointment as fourth auditor of the treasury, which he sought, had the successful candidate been a I letter one. Ex-Congressman Shelley of Alabama, who gets the place, had himselt returned to Congress six times when his district had given the republican candidate a large ma jority ateaolielection. The House repudiat ed him twice. On the last occasion the "ex” was given to him by his own party. For the sake of docent appearances they could do no less. Now he has his reward in a snug berth with Manning, Pillsbury. Hig gins Co. The republican opponents of General Logan in the Illinois Legislature show a disposition to capitulate since their party has gained, by the election of Weaver, a clear majority on joint ballot. Sittig and MacMillan have been the two recalcitrant members. They have both voted for Logan, but never on the same ballot or at junctures when their votes would elect him. The Chicago News is authority for tho statement that Sittig says he will vote for Logan if Weaver proves to be elected, and that MacMillan announces that he has made all the fight he intends to make. This indicates that Logan will be elected senator as soon as a full Legislature can b« assembled, if not beiore. is Loot* BleL CiUIl 07 THE Cam A VI AM Ieicioeet »t On Who Knows Him. A gentleman wbo now lire* in Boston, bnt wbo formerly resided in Csnsdn, snd attended the college where Louis Biel the insurgent received bis educetion, give* this glowing description of the chielUin of the half-breeds: One of the half hundred contentions with barbarous or semi-civilized nations which England has had on her haods during the memory of men still living—contentions, by the way, in which dilatory diplomacy played a very minor part—there has probably come into view no character entitled to more of our respect and admiration than the leader of the Northwestern half-breeds. Singleness of pjrpose and steadfastness in devotion have ever marked his course. It matters not, in considering hi* claim* to our regard, that the people for whom he is struggling are few in numbers and of a lower order ot humanity. On the contrary, they are all the more entitled to ju»t treatment, and this no one will say they have received. The American citizen,to em ploy a slang phrase,“knows how it i* himselt” about Indian affairs. Of all the causes ol de* cline in the Indian, it may be said that indul gence in intoxicants is the most pernicious; and early in his career Kiei set his face as a flint against the payment of the hunters in this commodity. Bad rum in exchange for good pelts was an arrangement peculiarly satisfactory to the Hudson Bay Company, and one that it relinquished most reluctantly. This piece of prohibitory work on Kiel’s part was thorough, and in its effects, most saiuta tary. During the agitation of tne retorra, be displayed qualities well calculated to en dear him to hia followers. This modern Logan, frequently on occasion, addressed his motley assemblages, composed of blacks, half-breeds, French habitants, and other in congruous elements of border and backwoods population in French, English, and in his own vernacular, as the case might require. Thus is explained in a great measure, the promiscuity of his following, and the person al popularity of the man. And good reason have the rude foresters to love and to confide in their leader. He has always made their interests bis chief study. Many years ago, Friar (now Bishop) Tache, ministering as a missionary with the Indians, took note of a young lad, one of his flock, discerning in him elements of character which the zeal ous priest fondly believed could be developed to the special profit of toe tribes. In hia mental vision be already beheld this son of the soil In sacerdotal robes, performing the rites of mother church for his brethren by natural and spiritual birth. To effect a re sult so desirable to the good priest, he at tached the boy to himself, and for years Riel served as acolyte, and in other ways assisted the good missionary in his arduous labors. In time Kiel was transferred from the wil derness to the ancient city of Montreal, where he pursued a collegiate course, and even had honors conferred on him in one or one or twe departments of study. It was noticed that the instincts of early life had not been destroyed nor weakened by his sub- j sequent associations with the whites. A fa-: v.-rite pastime of his during hours of recrea- I tion was the shooting of small game, both furred and feathered with bow and arrow— an exercise in which he was particularly ex pert. He was quick to resent any actual or fancied grievance, and could more than hold his own in any encounter with fellow stu dents. whenever occasion arose for him to defend his rights. It was not destined, how ever, that Kiel should become a priest. In j this the hopes of his patron were disappoint- j ed But good results did, nevertheless, accrue to the pastor’s flock through the train- ing and culture tile future popular chieftain j had received. As a cleric he would have been debaired from vindicating with the sword the violated rights of his confreres. Being a layman, he could employ force, and force is a cogent argument to the Britiau and his descendant. The first fruits of Riel’s abilities and devotion were secured early in the last decade, when the Canadian govern ment was reduced to the necessity and hu mility of appealing to Bishop Tache to medi ate with the aroused Indians for a pacifica tion. Through the influence of the prelate, wliu was hastily summoned home from Kotn., where ho was attending the Vatican council, j a peace was patched up, but its terms have i since been violated time and time again, and new provocatives added. And now the Canadian government will have to look else where for aid than to the bishop. -sa_ Personal. Howard Kretchmar will model a bust of Gen.

The hoard of 800 Roman coins unearthed Cobham Park, England, in the Spring of 1883 is supposed to be part of the treasure sent from Gaul by Magnentius shortly before his overthrow in A. D. 353. They belong to him and to the Emperor Constantins II. and Con stantins Gallus. The argument rests on the unworn condition of the coins. Malaria is not confined to low lying dis tricts.

—-v “CHAB1TT BBC0H1 AT HOME. In many of our large cities there have recently been efforts towards putting char ity on a better system than before, and directing the gifts of the benevolent into channels where they will do the most good. Able-bodied tramps are made to work, and exhibitors of hideous deformi ties are sent to asylums. The money which, under the old lack of system, would find its way into the pockets of these mis erable persons, is now given to the deserv ing poor. The organization and manage ment of this charity business is a work of magnitude and importance In New Haven, Conn., it is in the hand of a Board of Associated Charities,” whose active man is the Secretary, the Rev. E. N. Heelye. Mr. Seeiye is a rigorous jgen tleman in the prime of life, with a keen eye to detect a fraud or to expose a hypo crite. The conversation recently tumedon some of the ailment# of the disabled, and consequent hindrances to obtaining work. Said Mr. Heelye, “We have a great many old people in our care and a very prevalent trouble is rheumatism. In many instances the cases are old and chronic. You know how difficult rheumatism is to eradicate from thise who have had it for many as, and whose constitutions are badly en down. There was an old man at the poor-house whose he dead, was not only felive, hiitcngaged in a prosperous business, and with no idea tlyit the venerable old man was in the land of the living! The meeting between the two is described as being something worthy the best skill of the dramatist.” “What was the experience in your own family that yon referred to, Mr, Seelyc?” “It was that of icy wife. She bad for a long time been ill. Her illness develop'd into a severe attack of rheuma tism, Her sufferings were intense. The doctors tried various methods for her relief, all of which failed. She was at Glastonbury, spending the summer among friends, in the hope of regaining her health. It was impossible for her to change her |xisition without agony. Find ing that the doctors could do nothing, I thought 1 would try a bottle of Athlnpho ros just to nee if there was anything in it. When 1 t/Mik it to her one afternoon, I found one of the doctors with her, trying in vain to afford her relief. I asked him if he could relieve her. He said he feared not. Then I told him I would see what I could do. I gave her a dose of Athl phoron. To the great astonishment of all of iiSj in less than an hour there were very positive symptoms of relief. Within three liours, most of her pain had gone. She slept rcstfully that night, which she hud not done before for a long time. And now let me tell you that within twenty-four hours after I had given her the first dose, I had her in a carriage taking a ride. From the time she first tasted the medi cine her recovery began. Hefore long she was as well as ever, and is well now. This is a wonderful medicine that can thus so completely east such a diseas/' ns rheumatism out of the system. l have unlxiunded confidence in Athlo phoros for all classes anil conditions of people and whether at home or abroad, among rich or |xxir, Ixdicve it is the thing to mot rheumatism nut of the system.” It you cannot get ATruiriiouosor your drug gist, we will send It express puld, on receipt of regular price—one dollar per bottle.

But he had similar thoughts to these every night during his stav. and again on his way back to London, after doubling the time of his visit, and even then bis brother-in-law being half offend ed because he would not, as Audas said, “make it a few more days.” “If my first wife had been alive! If my first wife had been alive!” the very beat of the train seemed to pour those words in Frank Boston's ears as he sped south, and thought oyer the matrimonial situation at the Coppices. “Poor little Lesby! He’ll break her heart.” be said to himseif. “I don’t wonder at it. She feels jealously misera ble about that first wife. I wish now I had spoken to Jack.” “No. I don’t,” he said after a little more thinking, “it would not have been wis6,^ "Perhaps something may happen to brino’ him to his senses,” he said, after another pause; “something always does happen.” And then he read the Times until he reached town.

Frank Reston sat in his dingy room hard at work over a brief—not bis first; but these documents were sufficiently rare visitants to make him study those which came, with the most intense application. Probably from a desire that the deep truths that he gleaned trom the carefully written folios before him should not es cape after being once taken into his head, the young barrister was resting his brow upon his hands, his elbows were upon the table, and his thumbs were over his ears, while, as front time to time he read a few words out aloud, it seemed in the obscuri ty, or the semi-obscurity of the gloomy room, as if he were addressing himself to a venerable gentleman on the other side of the room, till a more penetrating look showed that the said venerable gentleman was only the young barrister's wig block with the time-honored grizzled head-gear, which betokened the regular wearer’s po sition in a court. “Gentleman to see you, sir,” said his clerk, entering the room. “Name?” said Frank, laconically. “Wouldn’t give no name, sir. Must see you directly, sir.” “Hullo!” exclaimed the barrister, as a well muffled up traveler forced his way in, hag in hand “Hush! only me; send away vour clerk.” Frank Reston nodded at his woodering aid, who left the room. “Why, my dear John, what is the mat ter! Lesby!” “Oh, she's all right; God bless her!” cried Andas, throwing himself into a chair, and gazing wildly, with bland, ca daverous face, at his brother-in-law. “Give me something for heaven’s sake— brandy—wine—I’m done up.” Reston opened a cupboard, brought out his spirit stand, and Audas hastily gulped down a glass of spirit, returning the glass to the table with trembling hand. “Why, John, old fellow,” said Reston, “what is it “I’ll—I’ll tell you directly. I hardly dare but, oh, Frank I swear to you I did it in all innocently. Oh, my poor darling! my poor darling! Don’t blame me, Frank I swear to you I believed it all.” "Here! here! come, come old fellow. Don’t give way like this. Why, hang it. man, what is it? You look as it you had committed a crime.” “I have Frank, I have and against the dearest, the sweetest girl that ever blessed a man with tender love.” “Why, John Audas,” said Restod fierce ly, “if you have dared to raise your hand against my sister—” “Raised my hand against her!” cried Audas, in tones of withering contempt. “Whv. I would sooner hew it off!” "Then what the deuce is the meaning of nil this You haven't been such a fool as to take shares in a gold mine?” “Bah don’t be absurd.” "What is it then Crime What do you mean “Read that,” cried Audas, tearing his pocketbook trom bis breast with trembling hands, opening it and producing one of those dirty, discolored pieces of paper which a paternal government considers good enough for the transcription of a tel egram. "Eh! why, what’s this? said Reston reading. “From Grace Audas, Ultrama rine hotel, Folkestone; to John Audas, The Coppicess, Calkston, Calkshire. Come to me at once. Our boat drifted to an island. Very ill. John Audas wiped the great drops of perspiration from his forhead. “Well, but—” began Reston, in puzzled tones “I behoved she was dead, Frank. On my soul I believed she was “And on the strength of that. sir. you have won a sweet young girl’s affection, and committed bigamy.” "Yes. yes,” groaned Audas. "And I was so happy.” “You scoundrel! cried Keston fiercely, j “Don't for God's sake, don’t turn upon me like that, Frank.” “There is one comfort.” continued the young barrister, “the law can be pretty hard upon a villain who blights a young girl's life in such a way as this; and the punishment—” “Curse the punishment! I’d go through fourteen years’ penal servitude with pleas-! ure if it would spare my poor darling! pain.” Then she doesn’t know it yet “Know it Of course not. l could not tell her.” groaned Audas. “And pray what do you intend to do i Of course the only thing is for you to; make my poor sister a very large ’settle ment. But I shall insist upon that. I'll go and fetch her away at once.” “What! and separate us. Frank! No. no, for heaven’s sake, don’t think, of that. As for money, all I have is hers—bless her; but we must not part. Frank 1 swear to you, that if you take her away. I'll blow my brains out at the hotel." "Humph! I wouldn't do that." said Heston coolly. “But perhaps you have some plans." "Plans! Yes," cried the other excited ly. "I brought her up with me. She’s at the Grand." “What here, in London "Of course. I am going to take her to Paris." "Via Folkestone?" “Curse it. no via Dover. I shall take an assumed name. We'll travel for a few years, till that fiend of a woman really dies.
