It seems that while Mr. Albert Smith and his three eldest children had gone some miles to church five colored men approached the house and asked Mrs. Smith to give them something to eat, On being refused they weut into the house and, learning that there was no one at home but Mrs. Smith and her little babe, forced her into the yard and began ransacking the house, After appropriating all that they could find in the way of money and valuables they set fire to the house and added horrors to the terrible scene by forcing the distracted woman to wit- ness the most brutal of fiendish deeds, which was the tossing of her little baby in the air and letting it fall back almost on the point of sharp knives which they held under it, The brutes finally heeded the frantic womans entreaties and went away, leaving her with nothing to greet the return of ber horror-stricken husband and children but her half-dead babe and a smouldering heap of coals where was, only a few hours before, their home.

Lively Fight Over Catholic Church Property at Plymouth, Pa. About three months ago#Bishop O'Hara of Scranton deposed Rev. Father Warnegari, the pastor of the Polish Catholic church at Ply- mouth, and afterward expelled him from the priesthood for unbecoming conduct. The con- gregation was divided into two factions and | one of these insisted upon holding possession of the church and parsonage. Yesterday after- noon Bishop O'Hara appeared in Plymouth for the purpose of obtaining possession of the church and its property. He sent for Rev. Father Mack and deputized him to act in his name. The police were called upon to inter- fere in case of trouble, and a call was made at the parochial residence. Upon admission being refused the officers were ordered to forcibly enter the building, and # moment later they battered down the doors and arrested six of the inmates, among whom was Martin Wilch, a saloon keeper, who acted as the leader of those on the inside, A fierce fight ensued while the prisoners were being removed, and in the struggle Chief of Police Michael Melvin had his leg broken and back injured. A number of other persons were hurt in the melee, but none are fatally injured. er The President’s Regret.

Bismarck’s Private Secretary. From s London Letter to the Birmingham Post, Prince Bismarck’s private secretary (Herr von Rottenberg) has just left London after a stay of a week's duration. His visit was a mournful one, being occasioned by the death of his young and beautiful wife. The bereave- ment was so sudden and unexpected that Herr von Rottenberg, summoned from Friedrichsrub, where be was staying with Bismarck, was com- | pelled to leave ata moment's notice. ‘The loss of this highly gifted lady will be severely felt at Berlin, As an English woman she was much looked up to by the members of the English | society of the capital. Much dissidence and | mapy a misunderstanding have been avoided by | her timely interference, She was considered among the most intellectual and accomplited —e in the society surrounding the chan- | celior, Herr von Rottenberg, who is sometimes in- | troduced by Bismarck to foreign diplomatists | as his right hand, while he facetiously adds that he keeps his right arm for himself, owes | the high position he enjoys entirely to his own | genius and the keen perception of the prince, | by whom it was discovered. Count Herbert had been a college chum of Herr von Rotten- berg and had maintained a friendly cor- respondence in after life. One day Prince Bismarck, on finding on his son’s desk a bro- chure entitled *‘An Ideal State,” put it in his ‘ket, curious to see the subject of Count erbert’s studies. The chancellor was delighted | on perusing the work and inquired with much | interest concerning the author. On learning that he was engaged in commercial pursuits | much against his wishes, his taste being wholly devoted to science and literature, the prince | immediately exclaimed: ‘Then iet him come | tous. The author of that brochure is just the | man wanted in our chanceilerie; just the man | I should like to consult; the man to give valu- able advice in state difficulties. Write to him utonce.” This wasdone. Young Rottenbery eagerly accepted the offer and deserted his uucle’s counting house with delight, although warned by his fr.ends that the post would be a hard one, ——- ~--se0 A Fortune Loses Its Owner.

The most independent people I’ve seen in Paris are the bootblacks. It is a very difficult thing to find one when you want him. You see their neatly arranged chairs, with all of the eppliances for polishing, on the corners, but the bootblack is rarely at home, He bas eitber gone to luncheon or taking # promenade or sipping his sirop at a neighboring cafe. If he happens to come up while you are looking at his chair and wondering where he is be docs not condescend to solicit your custom. He above it, He just drops into his chair, picks Up & hewspaper and yawns over it. If you timidly suggest that a “shine” is desired he will look at you vacantly for a moment, slowly fold his paper, rise with great sy wg Sage pro- ceed to give you the best polish for the sum of two cents that can be hoped for on this earth. @ bootblacks are men, some of them old men; and sons Sener wuch artists cape ae ae sculptors are with chisel Just give the bootbinek ap extra penny and be will brash your clothes until they glitter like your shoes ‘and thank you with a pathos and y the suavity and elo- politeness only equaled quence with which the London bootblack begs you, almost with tearsin his eyes, to let him your A MrstEnr, Thave seen many things over here which I cannot comprehend. But the greatest mystery ofall to me is how a two hundred pound Frenchman can sit in front of a cafe for hours over a tiny glass of cognac—about a thimble full—without drinki it, It takes a French- man far longer to quaff a thimble full of brandy than it does an ‘Adanta boy to wrap bimself around a schooner of beer. The main object seems to be just to sit bebind the brandy and look or think and talk. ‘The drinking is merely anincident. When you ask for coffee the waiter always brings a little flask of cognac and places it by the glass, and if you say “no cognac,” he simply stares at yon in a dazed way and leaves the brandy on the table. He thinks surely there must be some mistake. It | sexes the comprehension of a French waiter ow any human being can possibly drink coffee without dashing it with cognac. Victor Hugo once said that the best way to see Paris life is FROM THE TOP OF AN OMNIBUS, This is true. Take an omnibus at the Ma- Geleine—ride through the boulevards Capu- cines, Des Italians, Monmartre, Pairsonire, the most brilliant streets in Paris—and you will see thousands of fashionably-dressed men and women sitting in front of the cafes under the beautiful trees, sipping brandy, coffee and sirops. You will not see anybody intoxicated, Ride through the exterior boulevards and you will see thousands of working people—men, women and chiidren—drinking cheap wines in front of the cheap cafes and all sober and cheerful. ‘he French people live at the cafes and use their houses simply as sleeping places. If there is any place like home in Barts Ihave failed to see it. The Frenchman's ides is to work hard and fast, get through as quickly as possible and then enjoy himseif, a - ter all he has grasped the true philosophy of existence. At any rate, people of all classes seem tobe prosperous and everybody spends money. , Speaking of omnibusses, the French system is the finest I have ever seen. There are thirty- four omnibus routes in Paris, and they are run from early morning till miduight. These pon- derous vehicles are drawn by big horses, P se abreast. and carry forty people inside and on top, They go thundering along at a rapid rate and don’t stop for people to get out of the way. For two and a half cents one can ride the en- tire length of an omnibus route on top, and for five cents you can ride all over the city by pro- curing at the starting point what ‘a valled “a correspondencs @ round, red ticket which must simply be shown to the conductors on the various routes traveled. THE RAGPICKERS’ VILLA. Back of the Orleans railway station and only & few moments’ walk from the famous Garden of Plants, is a little settlement called the Rag Pickers’ villa, The streets are alleyways and the houses, waich are about the size of rabbit hutches, are marvels of quaintness, They are built of sticks and pieces of laths and boards and roofed with bits of sardine and tobacco boxes. These are the little patchwork palaces of scores of Parisian rag pickers and there these hard-working, honest toilers find rest with their families after the labors of the day and night. They are queer specimens of hu- manity, to be sure. It is the village of want and squalor within the metropolis of wealth and fashion, and no more like Paris than if a settlement of another sphere. A more curious and interesting spot cannot be found in any city in the world. It is, perhaps, an open ques- tion whether there is more happiness in the humble huts of the lowly ch#tfoniers than in the stately structures in the Faubourg St. Honore. THE BLACK CAT, Atthe head of the Rue des Martyrs, in a little side street, stands the cate of the Bleck Cat, the queerest house of entertainment in all Paris. Itis a three-story building of stone, painted black and discolored by time. Itseems to belong to the hoariest antiquity. Dust~ov- ered ivy creeps over the gloomy front, and through the bars behind the dark shutters glimpses of the somber interior give the place the appearance of a prison, Half way up the front of the building a huge black cat, carved in wood, with gilt sidewhiskers, looks mourn- tuily at you out of two big eyes of red glass, Carved tigures of black cate with their backs bumped and their tails curled support the big, red light over the door way, Tonteson this time-stained legend and funereal place and idly requested a cup ofcoffee. As I quaffed the black hiqnid my cyes wandered about the room. On the quaint mantels and in niches around the wall were carved figures of black cast, Black cats, with fiery eves, glared upon me in bas relief. At the further end of the darkened chamber hung a large painting rep- resenting scores of cats of all sizes and colors, who beneath a pale moon in the uncertain light seemed to be serenading a very large black cat which had humped himself on a jagged rock rising in the buckground. To my left, crouched upon a table, was a huge live black cat with his great green eyes fixed upon me, and as he looked he seemed to be thinking: *-Well, how do you like the picture?” The Black Cat isthe great resort of rising young artists and journalists, who assemble there to drink wine, beer and coffee and to discuss the old masters in literature and art. I saw several of these specimens, and these were about as queer looking as the place, The waiters are dressed in the costume of the mem- bers of the academy of France in honor of their distinguished, or to be distinguished, customers, I could not help thinking of the late Edgar A. Poe—and it struck me very vividly that the Black Cat in stone was about as weird and fanciful as the Black Cat in story, with the murder left out, of course, for, like a wise man, I paid my bill and tapped the acade- mician in piuk cutaway and stockings and gloomily strode away. sos Belle of the Black Hills.

From the London Tablet. Woman's first appearance has been a fruitful subject for the legend mongers. The Phenician myth of creation is found in the story of Pyg- malion and Galatea, There the first woman wes carved by the first man out of ivory and then endowed with life by Aphrodite, The Greek theory of the creation of woman, accord- ing to Hesiod, was that Zens, asa croel jest, ordered Vulean to make woman out of clay, and then induced the various gods and god- desses to invest the clay doll with all their worst qualities, the result being a lovely thing, with a witchery of mien, refined craft, eager passion, love of dress, trescherous manners and shame= less mind. The Scandinavians say that as Odin, ‘Vall and Ve. the three sons of Bor, werk walk- ing along the sea beach they found two sticke of wood, one of ash and one of elm, Sittin down the gods shaped man and woman out of these sticks, whittling the woman from the elma and calling her Emia. One of the strangest of stories touching the origin of woman is told by the Madagascarenes, In #0 far as the creation of man gos, the legend is not unlike that related by Moses, only that the fall came before Eve errived, After the man had eaten the forbidden fruit he became afflicted with a boil on the leg, out of which, when it burst, came « beautiful girl, The man's first thought was to throw the pigs, but he was commanded by ae = to let her play among the oe Until she was of marriageable age. then to make her his wife. He did so, called her Barboura, and she became the mother of all races of men. The American Indian myths relative to Adam and Eve are numerous and entertaining. Some traditions trace back our first parents to white and red maize; another is that man, searching for a wife, was given the daughter of the king of muskrats, who, beimg dipped into the waters of a neighboring lake, became a woman. ——_—coo—____ AUSTERE FU NERAL RITEs. Father Gabriel Laid on a Rough Pine Board with Bricks for a Pillow. From the New York Sun. The funeral of Father Gabriel of the Order of Passionists, recently connected with St. Jo- seph’s retreat, Baltimore, took piace Monday in St, Michael's monastery in West Hoboken, The remains were laid on a rough pine board in the main aisle of the church. The body was clothed in the coarse black habit of the order. On the breast were « cross and three pails, and 4round the waist was a leather girdie ,to which was attached a rosary of fifteen decades. The sandals were removed from the feet, On the head, which rested on a little pile of bricks, ashes were sprinkled in the form of a cross. 1 emn mass of requiem was chanted by wv. Father Philip Berk, C.P. Other mem: of the order were grouped in a semi-circie within the chancel rail. After the absolution had been pronounced and the priests, students and congregation had taken a farewell look at the remais,«ax lay brothers pie from behind the altar and arranged themselves on either side of the bier. At a signal from the master of ceremonies they raised the body of the dead priest to ther shoulders, and, followed by the 5 and at- tendants, marched to the ter of v: basement of the church, where se members of the community already lie. At the entrance to the vault the remains were again laid on the ground, and after being sprinkled with holy water they were put in a plain white coffin and slid into one of the openings. The final absolution was then pronounced, the opening was cemented up, and the name of the dead monk was scratched with a trowel in the wet mortar. A AS SMART AS THEY USED TO BE, Specimen Pranks of the Old and the Rising Generation, From the New York Tribune. Two New York merchants were “swapping” reminiscences of their childhood the other night in an uptown hotel. “I went back to the old homestead this summer,” said one, “and I think Inever was so surprised in my life as when I found that my old father and mother were not only willing to allow the young folks to havea game of cards in the evening, but would even take a hand in it themselves. When Iwasa boy the worst ‘whaling’ I ever got was when tbe old man found a eucher deck hidden under my mattress, and how the new order of things came abvut I was curious to know. All that father or mother would say was that they had changed their minds and saw no sin now in ap innocent game of cards where no money was at stake. But this is the way it really bape pened.
