Mrs. Bowman, of Philadelphia, has caused the arrest of Charles Clark, of Pottstown, on the charge that he has cast a spell over her and bewitched her, so that she has suffered great mental and bodily injury. Until recently she lived in Pottstown with her husband and children. In her complaint she says that one evening while pre paring ber children for bed she heard two male voices, one of which said: " She is George Davis' daughter; I know she is, for she got the money." Then the voices went on to vilify her in a shocking manner. They sounded as though the persons speaking were looking right at her. She was terribly frightened. From that time she heard the voices frequently. She sayf lTar"thTeats weremade that her baby would be put to death if she did hot abandon her husband, and soon afterward the infant died. Threats that her husband would be led into intemperance were fol lowed by husband going on a spree and not returning to her. She as serts that, one of the voices was that of Clark, who is favorably known in Pottstown. This is the second case of alleged witchcraft in which legal steps have been taken in Pennsylvania within a week. Result of a Lover's Quarrel.- Russ Hall, a" young man living near Rocky Mount, parted from his betrothed, Miss Fannie Hopkins, in anger. . It is under stood that from some trivial cause the engagement was broken off. Wednesday evening Miss Hopkins was walking with a young man, when she was seen by Hall. He fell back from the path, and simply glanced at them. Cutting a heavy club, he skulked behind them till the. young man left the girl near her gate. Hall then rushed upon her and felled her to the ground with the club, fracturing her skull and otherwise injuring her. She begged piteously for her life, but her appeals seemed only to infuri ate him the more, and he only stopped when she was 'unable to cry longer. She is still, lingering. Hall has escaped. The Upper Temple. It was dark arid gloomy in the streets. The rain had been falling during the day, and now at night fall there was a chilling mist en swathing the earth. Under foot the melting snow made the walking wet and ' disagreeable, and, in places where the ice had been washed off, treacherous,' The streets were but meagerly lighted, and the passers by walked care fully, picking his way amid the dimness, the, wet, the ice and the dirt. We entered the vestibule of the church. It. was light and clean by contrast with the streets, and then as the inner door swung open we entered the warm brilliantly lighted, comfortable church. How vast the difference between this place and the streets through which we had just ome! There yHarkness, comfort, defilement, (j rr i: u . u uaiigci. ncic iigm, Will mm, ucnu- ty, song. And. the thought came over us, will it not De tnus when by and by the disenthralled spirit comes out of the darkness and de filement of the world into the un failing light and alluring glory of the upper temple ? No matter then for the darkness and difficulty of the way if it leads to fadeless glory. How bright, how entrancing, how glad the sight, when the darkness of death passed upon our spiritual vision shall burst the sight of that femple not made with hands!
