if they have a child In the house. A throne,
a crown, a scepter, a kingdom under charge.
He careful how you strike him across the
head, .larring the brain. ' What you say to
him will be centennial and millenial, and a
hundred years and a thousand years will not
stop the echo and re-echo. Do not sayr "It is
only a child." Rather say: "It is only an im
mortal. " It isonly a masterp'ece of Jehovah.
It is only a being that shall outlive sun and
moon and star and ages ouadrillennial. Ood
has infinite resources and he can give pres
ents of greafc"valti?, but when he wants to
five the richest pnwsi hie gift to a household
e looks around all the worlds and all the
universe, and then gives a child. The great
est present that (Jod gave our world he
gave about 1W7 years ago, and he gave it on
a Christmaa night, and it was of such value
that heaven adjourned for a r.-ces-i, and camo
down and broke through the do ids to look
nt it. Yea. in all ages Cod has honored
childhood.. He makes almost every picture a
failure unless there be a child either playing
011 tho (!oor, or loking through the window,
or seated on the lap gazing into the fa of
its mother. It wiw a child in Naaman's
kitchen that told the- great Syrian war
rior where ho might go and get (cure,l
of the leprosy, which at his seventh
plunge in t'.o Jordan, was left at
tho bottom of the river. It was to the
cradle of leives in w'lich a chil l was laid,
rocked by th ; Nile, t" a Cod callel the at
tention of hbtory. It was a sick child that
cvo'ced Christ's curative sympathies Itwas
ft child that Christ sat in the midst of the
squabbling d si iples to teach the lesson of
humility. We are informed that wolf ami
leopard an 1 lion shall yet lw so domesticated
that a little child, shall lead them. A child
decided - "Waterloo, showing the army of
Ulucher how thev coull take a short cut
through tho field', when, if the old road
had been followed, tho Prussian gen- 1
oral would have come up too lite
to save tho dest.n;s of F.urop. It
was a child that decided Gettysburg,
he having overheard two Confederate Gen
erals in a conversation, in which they da- i
cided to march for Gettysburg instead of
llarrisburg, and this'reparted to Governor
Curtinr tho 'Federal forces started to meet
fhir opponents at ' Gettysburg. And the
child of to-day is to decide all the great batr
ties, make all the law. Fettle all the desti
nies and usher in tho world's salvation or
destruction. Men, women, nations, all eartt:
and all heaven, behold tho child ! Is there
anv velvet so soft a? a child's cheek? Is there
any sky po blue as a child's eye? Is there any
music bo sweet as a child's voice? Is there
any plume so wavy as a child's hair?
Notice also that in this Hiblo night scene
God honored s.denco. Who are the three
wise men knet ling before the divine infant?
Not boors, not ignoramus "s, but Caspar, liel
thasar and Me'chior, men who knew all that
was to bo known. They were the lssacNew
totis and. llerschels and l'aradays of their
time. Their alchemy was the forerunner of
our sublime chemistry, their nstrology the
mother of our magnificent astronomy. They
had studied stars, studied metals, studied
physiology, studied everything. And when I
aee these a imt ists i owing before the beautiful
babe, 1 seo tho prtpluv?y of the time when all
the telescopes and micros, opes, and all the
licyden jars, and all the electric batteries,
and all tho ob-Norvatories, and all the
universities shall bow to Jesus. It is much
that way already.' Where is the college that
do.s not have morning prayers, thus bowing
at the manger? Who l ave been the greatest
physici ins? Omitting the names of the liv
ing, list, we should bj mvidiou'i, havo we not
had among them C'urisrian m mi like our o .vu
Joseph C. Hutchinson, and l'.udi, and Valen
tin Mott, and AU'rcrombie, and Abcrnethy?
Who have been our greatest scientists? Jo
seph Henry, wha lived and diol in tho faith
of the Gosjel, and Agasaz. who, standing
with his students among the hills, took off
his hat aud sud: "Young gentlemen, before
we stu ly tlvss rocks let us pray for wisdim
to the God who made the rocks.'' To
day the greatest doctors and lawyers
of Brooklyn and New York, ami of ail
this land, tuid of all- lands, revere the Chris
tian religion, and are net ashamed to say so
lefore juries an I legislatures and senates.
All geology will yet Imw before the Rock of
Ages. All botany will yet worship the Rose
of Sharon. All astronomy will yet recognize
the Star of Bethlehem. And physiology aud
anatomy will join hands and say: We must
by the help of God get the human race up to
tho perfect nrve, and perfect muscle, and
perfect brain, and perfect form of that per
fect child before whom nigh twenty hundred
years ago Caspar, and Helthasar, and Mel
ch or lent their tiro I kneels in worship.
Behold also in that fii-st Christmas night
that ( iod honored the fields. Come in, shep
herd boys, to Bethlehem-and seo tho child.
"No,'' tney say; "wo are uot dressed good
onought to come in.'' "Yes, you are, tome
in. Mire enough, the storms and the night
dew and the brambles have made rough work
with their apparel, but none have a better
right to come in. They were tho first to hear
the music of that Christmas night. Tho -first
announcement of a Saviour's birth was made
to thosi men in the rields. There were wise
acres that night in Bethlemem and Jerusalem
snoring in de.p sleep, mid there were sal
aried ottietTs of government who, hearing
of it afterward, mar have thought that
thev ought to have had the first news of
men a great event, some one dismounting
from a swift camel at their door and knock
ing till at some sentinel's pietion: "Who
comes there,'" the great ones of tho palaca
might have been told of the celestial arrival:
No; tho shepherps heard the first two bars of
the music, the first in the major key and the
last in the 'subdued minor: "Glory to Go I
in tho highest, anl on earth pea -e, good will
to men." -Ah, yes; the fields were honored.
The old shepherds with p'ai l and crook have
for the most part vanished, but we have graz
ingon our United States pasture fields and
prairie about fort v-tive million sheep and all
their keepers ought to follow the shepherds
of my text, and all those who toil in the fieldi,
all wine dressers, all orehardists, all hus
bandmen. Not onlv that . Christmas nizht.
but all up and down the world s history God,
has lieon honoring the helus. Nearly all the
messiahs of reform, ami literature, and elo-;
quenee. and law, and benevolence, have
come from the Gelds. Washington from tho
fields, JelTorson from the fields. The presi
ddntial martyrs, Garfield and Lincoln, from
the fields. Henry Clav from me trelds.
Daniel Webster from the fields..- Mart n
1 .ut her from the fields. Anl before thw
world is right the overflowing populations of
our crowded cities will have to take to the
fields. Instead of ten merchants in
rivalry as to who shall sell that
one apple, we want at loat eight
f them to go out and raise apples.
Instead of ten mend ants desiring to sell that
oik' bushel of wheat, wv want at least eizht
of them to go out and raise wheat. Tie
world wants morw hard hamls, more bronzed
checks, moro muscular arms. To the fields!
(kvl honored them when He woke up the
lwpherds by tho midnight anthem, and He
will, while the world lats. continue to honor
tho fields. When the shepherd's crook was
that famous night stood against the wall of
the Bet'i.Vbom kahn, it was a prophecy o the
tinw when the thresher's flail, and farmer's
plow, and wooiman's at, and ox's yoke, and
sheaf binder's rake shall surrender to the Goi

God honored motherhood. Two angels on
their wings might have brought an infant
Saviour to Bethlehem without Mary's being
there at all. When the villagers, on the
morning of Dec Sti, awoke, by a divine ar
rangement and in some unexplained way,
the child Jesus might have been fouaii ta
some comfortable cradof the village, fcut
no, no! Motherhood for all time was to be
consecrated, and one of the tenderest rela
tions was to be the maternal relation, and
on nt the wettest words "motter." In all
ages Goi tzs honored good motherhood.
John "Wesley bad a good mother, SL Be nurd
had a good mother, Samuel Budgett a go id
mother, Doddridge a good mother, W miter
Bcott a good mother, Benjamin ..West a good
mother. In a great audience, most of
whom were Christians, I asked that all those
wV.o had been blessed of Christian mother?
arise, and almost tho entire assembly stood
up. Don't you see how important it is that
ail motherhood be consecrated? "Why did
Titian, the Italian artist, when he sketched
the Madonna, make it an Italian face? Why
did Rubens, the German artist, in h Madon
na, make it a German face? Why did Joshua
Reynolds, the English artist, in his Madonna,
make it an English fae? Why did Murillo,
the Spanish artist, in his Madonna, make it
a Spanish face? I never hear J, but I think
they took their own mothers as the type of
ilary, the mother of Christ. When you hear
some one in sermon or oration sprnk in
the abstract of a cood, faithful, honest
mother, your eyes fill op with tears while
you say to yourself: That was my mother.
"ho first word a child utters is apt to be
Mother," and the old man in his dying
dream calls "Mother! mother!'' It matters
not whether she was brought up in the sur
roundings of a city and in affluent home,
end was dressed appropriately with refer
ence to the demands of moJern life, or
whether she wore the old-time cap and
great round spectacles and apron of her
own make, and knit your socks with her own
need'.oj seated by the broad fireplace, with
great back log ablaze on a winter
Dight. It matters not how many wrinkles
rross.l and recrossed her face, or how much
her shoulders stoojied with the - burdens of
long life, ' if you painted a Madonna hers
would le the face. What a gentle haul she
V.id 'srhen we were sick, and what a voic .to
soothe pain, and was there any one who
could so fill up a room with peace, and
purity, and light? And what a sad day that
was when we came home and she could greet
us not. for her lips were forever still.
Come back, mother, this Christmas day,
and take your old place, and as ten,
or twenty, or fifty years ago, come
and open the old Bible you used to
read and kneol in the same place where you
used to pray, and look upon us as of old
when you wished us a Merry Christmas or a
Happy New Year. But no? That would not
be fair to call you back. You had troubles
enough, and aches enough, and bereavements
enough while you aro here. Tarry by the
throne, mother, till we join you there, 3rour
prayers all answered, and in the eternal
homestead of our God we shall again keep
Christmas jubilee together. But speak from
your thrones, all you glorified mothers, and
say to all these, your sons and daughters,
words of love, words of warning, words of
cheer. They ne?d your voice, for they have
traveled far and with many a heartbreak
since you left them, and you do well to call
from the heights of heaven to the valleys of
earth. Hail, enthroned ancestry ! we are com
ing. Keep a place for us right beside you tit
the banquet.
Slow footed years! Wore swiftly ran
Into the gold of that unsettiug sun.
Homesick we are for thee,
Calm land beyond the sea.
SHE MARRIED DAVE'S BOSS.
A Jealous Sweetheart's Ruse to Cut
Out His AVicked Rival.
A young countryman who had long
loved a girl who lived a mile or two
from him was nearly in despair about
winning her hand, and was on the eve
of selling out and leaving the country,
as the girl had refused him three times,
and it was out that she was engaged to
another fellow. f
Our hero had noticed that his rival
and tho girl walked in an old meadow
field nearly every afternoon, and he
grew madly jealous. In his cattle he
had a young bull that was always mad
with everything but his master, because
he was an especial pet. Now Dave, as
ho called the bull, was to be the object
with which to satiate his revenge. He
would turn him into the meadow, hide
himself and see his rival tossed like a
football. So, one afternoon, calling to
Dave, who would follow him like a dog,
he repaired to the meadow, let the fence
down-aud turned the bull in. He then
strolled off, and walked around the
field, as miserable as a man could be
who was committing an evil deed. An
hour or so later he heard the deep mut
tcrings of the bull, and hastening to the
meadow fence, he saw Dave about
twenty yards from the couple, pawing
dirt and shaking his head. Tho man
was trying to get tho girl to run but she
was so terrified that she could not move.
The bull made a dash and the fellow
ran shrieking for the fence. The bull
dashed on after the flying fellow, while
our disconsolate young man, having
jumped the fence, rushed to to the girl
as the bull dashed ou after tho fugitive
rival, and, catching her in his arms
told her that such a coward was un
worthy of her.
- As Dave saw his yoting master he left
off pursuing the other Juan, returned
and went to licking the hand of his mas
ter, whilo the indignant girl vowed she
would never more speak to a man that
was afraid of a cow. She soon after
married Dave's boss. Americus (Oa,)

Doomed to Extinction.
"In fifty years," said an observer of nt
ture to a Cincinnati Enquirer writer, "and
I dare say twenty-five, the buffalo will be
be a rarity in our museums, as not one in
twenty has a specimen."
"How soT .
Thcy are doomed to extinction. First,
they were driven to the West, and nov
they are leing hemmed in by the settlers
that are extending out from both the East
and "West, and when thec two bodies
meet fairly, as they wiliin the tie I have
6tated, and the country i cut up by hun
dreds of railroad lines, th? buffalo that
has existed in countless thousands will bs
gone." -
"Why," continued th? speaker, not
long ago these animals covered thn east
ern part of the continent to the shores ol
the Atlantic, and Mexico. Now, you
never sec one east of the Missouri, except
perhaps the northern portion, while their
only ranrze to-day li"t letwecn the Upper
Missouri and the Rocky mountains, and
from Northern Texas and New Mexico to
Great Martin lake, in latitude sixty-four
degrees north. Th"V are I wing hemmed
in on every side, with all the. other ani
mals of the plains; their limit is becom
ing more restricted; in fact, are b?in
driven out of existence by man. Over
one hundred and fifty thousnd are ycirly
used legitiiu itcly by th? trade, and half
as many are killed in wanton tsport. Rut
we live only for the present, and your
grandchildren and mine will be goiupr to
he big museums of 19S0 and raving hfty
tents to look at a piece of buffalo skin.
It's as sure as anything can bj. The his
tory of the last six hundred year tells the
same story, yet we kill and slaughter.

Roads on December 15. Ail went well until
the 17, when the wind blew almost a hurri
cane. The vessel in the meantime began to
leak badly, and the men were kept constant
ly at the pumps.
At the time the Moseley was sighted all
hope of saving the vessel was abandoned
and signals of distress were set. The waves
were running mountains high and the rescue
attempted by Captaiu Torrey was attended
with great danger that would deter any but
a brave man from attempting jt. The
schooner was settling fast, yet all thought
that rescue was certain Until with a sudden
lurch the vessel went down, taking with it
Captain Somers and five of his crew.
The rescued sailor as soon as he saw the
schooner going down, seized a plank, and to
its buoyancy he owes his life. He is enthu
siastic in his praise of Captain Torrey, who
after arriving here, procured conveyance
for the shipwrecked sailor to his home.
Captain Torrey sa s the wind blew almost
a hurricane when he attempted the rescue
and he was obliged to use oil to keen the
waves from breaking the boat. The lost
vessel had a cargo of 530 toris of coal.

The Master of Ceremonies at a CariiA."
. mas Festival Flogged ou tho
Platform.
There was a very exciting scene at a
Christmas tree festival and exercises in the
village of Loii, a few miles south of Water
loo, N. Y.
Jackson M. Phillips is a tall young fellow
who has taught public school in Lodi for the
past year and is known in Lodi as the hand
somest man there. He was graduated from
Harvard College two years ago and is the
son of a prominent merchant in Pougbkeep
sie. For week9 the young peoplo in Lodi
have been planning for grand Christmas
tree exercises, and Phillips was chosen to
conduct them.
Miss Jennie Baxter, one of the pretty and
athletic belles of Lodi, and daughter of a
leading physician there, was chosen to assist
him, but Phillips had hid some previous
dispute with her and declared he would not
have her assisting. To several you-ig men
he said her moral character was not good.
The Christmas tree exercises took as plan
ned. When the exercises were half through
Miss Baxter and her cousin, Miss Lulu
Yt ung, quietly entered the hall and took
seats a short distance behind Phillips. That
gentleman arose a few minutes later to
address tho Sunday school pupils, when Miss
Baxter suddenly arose, and, throwing aside
her cloak brought forth a long rawhide
whip.
Quick as a flash f he rushed upon Phillips
from the rear and whipped him unmerciful
ly about the hea l and shoulders. Phillips
turned to grasp the w hip, and Miss Baxter
at that instant dealt him a most powerful
blow with it across his nose and eyes, soshafc
he was blinded, Several people ran to his
help, when Miss Young snatched the whip
from Miss Baxter and struck Phillips several
resounding whacks about his neck and face
as he was dragged away by his friends. '
There was an uproar in the hall during
the whipping, and women and children
screamed. '
Phillips was taken to his roon, nearby,
and it was found that his eyes and cheeks
had been cut and his neck and mouth mark
ed by heavy red ridges caused by the strokes
of the w hip upon him.
Miss Baxter threatens to whip him again
if he speaks ill of her. Public opinion in
Lodi is divided upon the matter.
VENDETTA IN MISSOURL
Outlaws Carrying Things with a High
iland Ten Killed.
A dispatch from Ozark, Mo., sa s: That a
deadly warfare is raging near Galena, in
fiat county. Very little is known of the
story of the feud, but it seems that the Terry
brothers, five in number, living near May
berry's Ferry, on the White River, have for
years defiiei the law and intimidated the
community. They have been charged with
various crimes, including horse stealing,
and finally a vigilance committee was or
ganized to drive them out of the
county. The Terrys, with their friends
overawed the leaders of the regulating
movement, and the Outlaws held their
ground. Two weeks ago, one of the Terrys
was shot fr. m ambush, and killed. tSoon
after this, one Weeks, a member of the
Anti-Terry faction, was shot to pieces by
unknown assassins. A few days afUr the
death of Weeks, Garrett, a f riend of the
Terrys, was fired upon by Grant Wagner
and 'William Atnbros w ho had secreted
themselves behind a tree. Ambrose was
armed witii a double barreled breeendoad
ing shotgun, and Wagner with a repeating
W incites er rifle. Garret carried a Win
chester repeating rifle, and when fired upon
by the assassins, jumped from his horse and
took a p .t ion behind a tree, and about
forty-five yards from Ambrose and Wagner.
The fight which eusued lasted about fifteen
minutes, during which time over twenty
shots were exchanged. Wagner receiving
two mortal wounds, and his ally (Ambrose)
fled, leaving Garrett master of the field,
about this time Frank Ambrose, a brother of
William, who bad beard the shooting, came
upon the scene, armed with a revolver, and
opened fire on Garrett, killing him at the
second shot, and receiving himself a mortal
wound. Ambrose then took his wounded
brother home, the latter dying in a few
hours. It is said that ten men have been
killed in the neighborhood, and that no one
has received any legal panbhmenL An ap
peal has been mads to Gortnwr Marmadoke
to send troops to the scene. :

BALKED OF HIS BRIDE.
A Story of IxTe, Chdorform -nT. 31 y
lery from the City ofSenaatf k as.
Henry M. Hurd, of Chicago, I1L, was. q
have been married on Monday erm ting, mt
whe mysteriously disappeared. He is
woodworker, forty-five years of ag tv Slirifit
and possessed of some savings.
He was to have married pretty M rs Dora
Wasuburne, who keeps a boarding loose ;)
No. 73 West Nineteenth streets The "houaa is
a handsome two-story brick aj ti Uurd
boarded there. Mrs- Washburne i " plump
and pleasing and Henry was the happiest
man in Chicago.
On Monday morning Henry w 'enoutto
answer an advertisement for a foi suan, for
he happened to be put of employciej t This
did not bother bun, however,' for: ' he hid a
tidy sum in hand.
A brick factory oa Fortyvafth street
wanted a foreman, but it was 'not until be
had been away fiom the houi sometime
that he discovered that application shouLi
be made by letter only. Then he thought be
would walk around awhile ixnd see if ho
couldn't find something, but ifter an hour
or more he gave it up and staj ted home. He
took a State street cable cur and got off at
t we nty-second street and wm ked west.
He was just crossing th $ bridge over the
river when his arms we re suddenly seized
from behind, a hand was placed over his
mouth and a rag soaked m chloroform was
thrust tinder bis nose. T bifi was about noon
He did not eiitirelyl lose consciousness, but
was unab'e to help himsc tf. He was placed
in a carriage and then he knew nothing
more unt.l he woke un iM a small bedroom.
He was lying on a bed fc ith his clothes on,
and he could hear the ' voices of men in an
adjoining room. A man came in and said,
"Remain perfectly still upid you shall not be
harmed."
Two or threo hours aft trward another man
came in and after scruti sizing him carefully
turned to two otaers ana said, "Ob, pshaw!
that's the wrong fcian."
All wore masks, and the light being im
Jperfect in the room Hurd could not disting
uish anybody. He was told to rise, which
he did, the effects of the cblorjform bavin;
worn off and he was then blindfolded. K.o
did not dare to utter a sound for fear that he
would be killed. Af .er being walked a sr.ort
distance he was put into a carriage and
driven about for an hour or so andtaen
taken out. Tle carraige was driven so ifap
idly away, and Hurd was told to stand fetill
and not take tho bandage off his eyes, for
five minutes.
His captors then ran away, and mfter
waiting zhe required time be took the blind
age from his eyes. Wdthout delay he took
a street car and went home. Bursting in
the door he roused his intended, who fell
with a joyful scream into his arms.
Hurd is suffering no inconvenience from
his experience and ha no idea who his can
tors w re or where they took him. Who the
man was for whom he was mistaken is a
mystery to him.
ANARCHY'S FANGS.
A Paper Boycotted Because it "Would
Not Help the Cause of the lied Flag
The first boycotting case ever brought to
trial in Berkshire county, Mass., came be
lo -e Judge Thayer, at the District Court at
South Adams, to-day. The evidence showed?
that Lehman & Brenner, who publish a
German newspaper in that town called Der
Zeitgeist, have very much displeased many
of their patrons because of the moderate and
reasonable course thejr took during the
recent socialistic troubles in Adams at the
time the Anarchists were executed in Chica
go. The Socialists at that time held several
meetings, at which resolutions of sympathy
with the doomed men at Chicago were
passed. On the day of the hanging they put
the American flag , at half-mast and were
compelled by the town authorities to take it
down.
They were very much enraged at this ami
sent some very threatening articles to Der
Ziegeul for publication The proprietors of
the paper published some of them, but others
they refused to publish, because they were
too foul and threatening in their nature.
This caused the Socialists to hold a meeting,
at which they appointed a committee, con
sisting of Adolph Schaarmaa, Emil Auer
bach and Otto Beman, the defendants in
this trial, who should go about among the
Zeitgeist advertisers and induce them if kjs
sible, to withdraw their patronage. Lehman
& Brenner bad a warrant made out for the
committee charging tbem with conspiracy
in attempting to boycott Der Zeitgeist The
testimony was not conclusive enough to sus
tain the charges. They weakened when they
were brought upon the stand and J ustice .
Thayer discharged the defendants. There is
much excitement among the Socialists and
there is likely to be more trouble, as the
proprietors of Der Zeitgeist are bound to
crush out the boycott and they are sustained
by the majority of the people in the town.
