A TERRIBLE TRAGEDT, Gldagein News, On Tuesdny a most puluful tragedy was en- acted at the usual quict villago of Great Cros- hi'. which {8 some half-dozen iniles distant from Liverpool. A widow Indy, named M¥s. Agnes Morrls, _resfding at West View, ‘air- Iiolne Rooad, Attempted the murder of all_Ler children, five In number, and afterward endenvored to commnit suicide. Sho succeeded in killing two of the childven and in wounding a third,und then i inflicting sefons injury urun herself, ¢ sad deed was committed with a glx-barreled revolver. Mes, Morrls Is tho widow of Mr. James Morris, who died suddenly about nine _months ago. On Moundav evenlng Mra, Morris and her cldest daughter, Ada Gertrude, attended 8 harvesi-home concert, which was held in 8t, Luke's School-room, Oreat Craaba‘. At that timo lier diapositfon was noticed to o very cheerful, and there was nothing to indl- cate that {n o very few hours she would be like- 1y to commit the 8ad tragedy which has been per- ctrated, On arriving homo the family retired ©0 rust, two of the doughters, Ada and Anne, sleoping In the same bed with thelr mother, the two boys sleeplug together in an upper bed- room, and the wirl Ellen and the governcss ulceEln ? In another room on the sanic story ns the e«h’uflm oceupled by Mra, Morris and'the other doughters. Mrs. Morrls seems to havo ot ug about 0:30 o'clock in the miorn- ng, and, having procured a revolver which she had in the houge, she ahot the two girls Ada aud Anng, then proceeded to the upper root where tho boys were sleeplug, and flred ar them, but onlv succeeded In wounding Henry, and _after that she ‘went into the room whero Ellen s slecplng with the govern- cssy and fired at Ellen but missed her, The governeas was awoke by the sound of the flrln[i} and saw Mrs, Morris h:uvln§ the bedroom whidl she (the governces) oceupled. Sha immediately Rot out of bed and followed ler, but Mrs. Mor- ris evaded her by enterfug a dressing-room on the same lunding, on getting into which sho Jocked berself “In. A short time nfter sho entered that room the woverness leard another shot fired, and it would appear that while In this room Mrs. Morrls must have re- loaded some of the chambers of the revolver. After coming out of the room slic went up- stairs to the bedroom in which the boys hud elepty and there attempted her own 1ife by fir- ingat her head. The poverness followed her and succeeded in taking the rovolver from ber. After tho governess wns arcused from her sleep sho went Into the rooin where Mrs, Morris hud slept, and therea sud scene met her eycs. The two grirls were Iylng in_bed elther dylng or dend. She then wenf uprstalrs totheboya’ room. The boy who had becn shot ran down to the Kkitchen, but afterward returned up-stalrs, sud the governess locked hin and the unin- Jured” children fn her own bedroom, When medieal gcmlcmun arrived the two girls wero dead, and thoy dirocted their nttention to Mrs, Morrls and the boy Henry. 8he had fired twice at hersell, the first shot merely grnzInF her temple, but the second bullet hnd lodged in her senlp, and after some difficulty it was extracted, ‘The boy Henry was also shot {n the temple, but the doctors wire uuable to extract the' bullet. He lies In u niost precarfous condition, and it {8 feared cannot survive, Mrs. Morrls {8 nlso in a dangzerous state, but there {8 every proba- bility of her recovery. Tho causo of” the dis- tressing aud deplorablo tragedy would appear to be owing tu the nsanliy of Mrs, Morris, caused by the loss of her husband, whose death was of n sadden and sad charncter, ‘The reason given by the l||(|¥ hersolf for murdering her ehlldren {s that who would sooner have them dead than thut they ghould starve, und ane says it was her intentlon to kill thent ail, and also heraclf, 8ha expresscs her surprise that any of them, and particalarly the boy James, should have escaped.

NOONDAY FRAYER-MEETING, A careful observer can deteet n difference {n the manner of Mr, Moody Iu, the two places where he speaks, At the' Tabernacle he fs the world’s evaugelist, preachlug the Gospel an general principles, the same s ha has done to other great ussemblles on both sides of the sea, But at Farwetl Hall he is Chicago’s own evan- pelist, talking to his old friends und nelghbors, and preaching over again to crowded audlences of some of the Lest people of the ity thoee very sermans and Scripture expositlons which, years ago, e used to give to his own peo- ple at the Indlans BStreet Church on Sunday. mornings, and then repeat to n company of strangers In the hall on Sunday everluga,—a company often not vory large, often not very orderly, and often brought together only by the most persistent effort of his band of Yoke- fellows, who, with printed slips yclept * dodg- ers," used to haunt the bridges, strect-coruers, saloons, ete., for the purpose of gathering a congregation. Bat that congregation was made up of those who would not be llkely tozoto o regular church-service; therefore what he could do in his rough and bungling fashion was counted by the more elogant betlevers, both lay and clerical, a8 80 much clear gain, Bluce those days Brother Moody has been called tostand before Kings; to expound the Word of God with hall a’hundred Edinbure Doctors sitting at his fect; to face an nudience in the West End of London composed of the rank, and wealth, and plety of the very centre of the British Empire. What n marvel that all this pralge, and glory, und notoriety, and suc+ cess havo not turned his head! It rould liave doucso it his head were not of & very sound and scnsible order, and his leart very tender aud loving, and entlrely given to God. Perlaps this is the fnslde reason why he would nat consent to have the noonday prayer-meet- fug removed to the Taberuacte, though Farwell Hall was evidently far too small for the crowds who wished to ‘sttend. Well, let it be so, If by a little extra crowding and a good deal of extra Pnncmnmy we can huve our own Brother Moody back again for «ixty minutes every day. We Tose himn at the Tabernacle; that is new; but on the old sppt, with the ashes of two Furwell Halls under "him and the roof of a third one over him, he Is tender, and homely, and happy, and gets & good deal nearer to his audicnce than at any other place. f ‘course the liall was full, but it was full very early; the plutform was full to ghe very edge, with ministers and other offictal peopié, among them the Rev. J, C, Hartzell, edltor of ;.hu Southwestern Christlan Advocate, of New Or- cana, TIE BRRVICES. The first hymn was * Arlse My Sonl, Arlse!” then Eru ers another hymn, “Pass Me Not, O Mighty ]rlfit,” after which Mr. Muody gave s ruunh}g commentary on the Lord's Prayer, read- lln it from the eleventhchapter of Luke, verses Hasald: It Is wall for us to look into this prayer which Christ taught His Disciples that we may learn how to use it, for we are not ready to pray for thie converson of siuners thl wo caiy pray this prayer for ourselves, I'think It 1a a mistake to call thig “the Lord's Prayer.” His prayer Is in tho seventoenth chapter of John; bat this is the Disciples’ rayer. 'They hod Luen at prayer with the Mas- or, und when o hind finistied thoy were so much fmpressed with Ilis prayer that they wanted to have Him teach them how to pray that way. Mind you, they didn’t ask Him toshow them how to preach,but toshow them how topray, How many of us are praying prayerless rm CT8, ~—prayers which have gone for nothing{ What we want Is that Christ shall teach us how to pray as Ho prayed, and then wo shall be ready towork at Iils work, Some of the dlscinles were good preachers, they could preach like “sons of thunder,” but it Is very plain they did not know how to pray. There 18 an account of two of them, James and Johin, two of the chlef and most beloved among them, coning to Cinst and pmi'lng that ono of them might sit on_ Il right haud nad the other on His left fn His glory; but that wasn't the way'to pray; the Holy Bpirlt never “insplred such u prayer as that, and’ Christ uever auswered one. Onanother occasfon, whon they were passing through Sumariu and the Samarlians would not recelve Ifhn becauso His faco wag as §I He would go to Jerusalem, John, the bosom friend of Jesus, came to Him and faquired if thoy should mnot eall down fire from heaven and con- sumo these fuhospitable people. * No,'t suys the Lord, *It sn't my business down ers in cll;(n warld to destroy people. I came to save them, The prayer begins with an address to God as ¢4 Our Fathier Who art in heaven.” T sometlmes hear peopls begln their pruyers, 0, thou great and eterunl Qod.” That fsn't the way to l’"‘” that {8 too vold, too formal, What wo want s to get a scuso of the tender, fatherly love of God, and then we can %N:Y to some pur- se. It seems that Christ had taught them lifs prayer somne two yeara before. We read of it In the Bermon on thie Mount in the early part of His ministry, and this Is near thoe closo; but. Ho hasn't any Gther prayer for them that onc {s good enoughy, and, aiter 1,800 years, it 1s still the Very prayer we want to prn?'. 'l"lrl id the prayer of a dlaciple, How can an unregencrato man pray, “Thy will be done" ‘hat 14 just what he dou’t want, Hao wauts bis wu will to be done, I tell you, iny fifends, a man's willla the very last thing he glves up, “Forglve ua our sins, for we also forgive every one that {a Indebted to us.” Iow fa u sluner to r‘:{ that! How mauy here who profess to be Bi 's peoplu can pray that{ We will not go on any further to-day, but let us bow our heads in sllent prayer, and ask ourselves if_we can uso this petitfon which Christ teaches His dlsciples to use, and then I will ask Mr. Chamberiuu to lead us {n the disciples’ prayer. A moment of profound silence followed, aud then the prayer wus oilerod, the vongregation stunding und repeating-after the leader, The eifeet was profound, There was weeping as well o8 praying, ‘Then came ulug\lng, rayer by Dr, Goodwin, short address by Mr. Neodham, another by Ma), Whittle. rulull:l5nll Incldent of the War in which Gen.
