On Wednesday the village of
oeswater was greatly agitated
-aver the announcement that Mrs
Thomas Cronin, wife of a farm-
er -living some three miles frem
here, while in "a fit of insanity,
sad killed one of her husband's
est orses and then attempted
11 • her children, but was
prevented by some neighbors who
Chanced to be passing at the
. time.. The case is a very sad
one and is considered to bo al-
• Most hopeless'.-- Mrs - C: e i n-.. is a
young woman of rather prepos-
;,sessing appearance and very high-
ly thought of to. the vicinity of
her home. She was committed
to'the county jail at Wa1ke_•toe.
At Venture, Cal., on Tuesday,
a man named McCarthy, recently
discharged from the County Hos-
pital,entered Collins Son's Bank.
• The cashier had -gone to lunch,
leaving Jack Morrison alone.
McCarthy said his poverty and
desperation had caused him to
think of suicide. Ile laid a pack-
age on the counter, which ho
said was. dynamite drew a six -
Shooter, and demanded $30,000..
Morrison dodged behind the coun-
er, and ran out of the door. Tho
bber seized $1;000, and walked
to the street. Morrison gave
o alarm, and a crowd gathered,
ut no one was armed. The thief
ad a horse hitched near by and
as making for that. The sheriff,
ho was at hand, stepped into a
ardware store and seized a shot•
un, when the robber surrendered.
he money was recovered except
20, which was probably lost on
e street.
W.. P. Wood, an industrious far
el, of Macon county, N.• C., was
allod•away from homeon Monday
st, and when he returned on Ff•i-
ay he found that his hots° had,
n burned and that his wife and
ree sons and two daughters.had
eon murdered. He had saved up'
'few hundred dollars which he
-opt in- a trunk in .the house,
thele being no bank in the
vicinity. This was known in
the neighborhood. Several axes
and clubs and two large b'ow'ie
knives were found in the ruins.
Tho trunk, broken open and rifled,
was found a short distance a iVvay.
Enough bones were removed from
the ashes to prove, with the blood-
stained weapons, that the family
had been murdered and then burn-
ed with the building. When the
discovery Wfts made `rood faint -

the perpetratr,l•s of the Crime.

that she desires to secure the
money so that the .children of her

WHAT IS LIFE ?
To eat, to drink, to strive for tante,
To lay up heaps of gold;
To pamper self, to toy with shame,
From youth till we are old ;
To tread the humdrum round of trade,
With disappointments rife;
Now filled with hope, and now dismayed,
Oh! tell me, is this life?
Ah! no; 'tis but the grosser part -
A fraction of the whole :
The life whioh satisfies the heart
Is centered in the soul.
There lie the sanctities that chase
Away dark error's mist;
That fills us with an inward brace,
And fits us to exist.
Deep in the soul love rears his throne;
There truth and faith abide ;
And where they rule, ill is unknown,
And lite is glorified.
The outer world, though fair to see,
Is full of hate and strife;
And, oh! hew wretched must he be
Who has no inner life !
Phil Armour, the groat Chicago
millionaire, has been attempting
to buy a plot of ground next to his
Chicago itbsidence, and has offer-
ed $5,000 a foot for the land.
The property in question belongs
to Roloson, a broker, who does not
like'Mr Armour, and refuses to
sell it at any price.' Ile is erecting
a. stable on the ground which will
entirely.deittroy the view from,.the
windows .of Mr Armour's house.
Rev. Richard Jones is dead.
Ile \vas at one time pastor • of
Queen s Avenue MethodistChurch
in London, and was three times
elected president of the Canadian
Methodist Conference. He was
also at one time in charge of the
Wesleyan Ladies' College at Ham-
ilton. Ho died in Cobout'g, aged
85.
Mr John Sloan, of' Perth, has
commenced art action for slander
and libel against Rev. Jas, Ross,
Presbyterian minister of' that
town, the words complained of be-
ing a charge against Mr --Sloan
contained in a -sermon preached
by Mr loss and afterwards pub-
lished.' The amount claimed is
$10,000.
The grasshopper problem again
confroplts Minnesota. ' How to rid
the farm of these pests is inde• d
a serious question. Last year
seventeen thousand bushels were
caught, and the catchers wore
paid a dollar a bushel. Ali ex-
periment to' be made this year is
that of plowing up the ground
wherever the eggs aro found.
]1cietotbre the Western gd-asshop-
per has had a habit of bobbing up
serenely in the face of the most
discouraging circumstances. Stale
officials and professors aro now in
conference as to :the best plan of
'campaign to,adopt, and it may be,
that science, statesmanship and
perscverence will be able to. in-
augurate and piosecute a war
that will materially reduce, if not
entirely check, the; ravages of
these voracious tlestroycr;ofvege-
tation. •
CAUUIIT BY AN ENGINE.
As 11 Southern railroad train
was -sweeping round a Curve near
Chattanooga, the fireman espied
an enormous bald eagle on the
track, and before the bird could
fly, the cn ine was upon him. Be
was struck and lifted upon• the
cow -catcher, where he clutched a
beam with his claws and held fast:
Before he had time to recover
i'n1 Ills fright :i1).1 the shoe!: of
the .collision, the fireman had
climbed along the m1 Way, and
atlackrd him, 'rhe Mall \,i18 de-

The struggle was something
unique and terrible. Tice train
was going at the rate of 45 miles
an hour. The man had to hold
'by 0110 hand with all his power to
one of' the iron guards below the
headlight to keep his footing,. as
the engine swayed from side to
side and hounded over the 1.'10-
(ltlfllities of the track, while Ire
managed t he eagle with the other
harltl.
But his hirdsbip was finally se•
cured, after he had nearly torn
the man's overalls to shreds with
his powerful talons, \\h'eh are
fully (bur inches long. He was
carried back over the fou tway,
lighting like a >1001on.
Ogre in the cab, the engineer
went t0 the fireman's aid, and by
hard work they .lied "the king of

Pullnian Vestibuled Train
It is universally conceded that, not-
withstanding the advent of old and new
lines into the field of competition -for
passenger traffic between Chicago, Mil-
waukee, St. Paul and Minneapolis, the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway
maintains iii pre-eminent position as
the leading line, and carries the greater
cortical of the business between these
points. It is not hard to account for
this, when we consider that it was the
first in the field, and gained its popular-
ity by long years of firsb-class service.
It has kept up to the times by adopting
all modern improvements in equipment
and methods, the latest being complete
PullmanVestibuledtrains running daily
between Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul
and Minneapolis, and its route being
along the banks of the Mississippi,
through the finest farming country, the
most populous and prosperous towns
and villages, it offers to its patrons the
very best service their mcney can buy.
Its dining cars are celebrated through.
out the length and breadth of the land
as being the finest in the world. Its
sleeping cars are the best belonging to
the Pullman company, being marvels of
elegance,' comfort and luxury; its day
coaches are the best; made, and its em•
ployees, by long-continned service in
their respective capacities, are experts,
courteous and accommodating to all.
It is not at all strange, therefore, that
an intelligent and discriminating tra-
velling public should almost exclusively
patronize this great railway, with its
separate through lines running between
Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Min-
neapolis; Chicago, Council Bluffs and
Omaha; Chicago, Kansas City, and St.
