hef re n. AH around the top and the sides,
and 'he f-ot of the hill, a mob ranges. T hey
gnash their teeth, and shake their clenched
fists at him. here the cavalry horse*
Champ their bits and paw the earth and
snort at the smell of the carnage. Yonder
a group of gamblers are pitching up as to
■who snail have the coat of the dying Savior.
There are women almost nead ith grief
among the crowd, uis mother and his aunt,
and some whose sorrows he had comforted,
and whose guilt he had pardoned. Here a
mm dips a sponge into sour wine, and by a
stick lifts it to the hot and cracked lips.
Tlie hemorrhage of the five wounds has
done its work.
The atmospheric conditions are such as
the world saw never before or since. It was
not a solar eclipse, sucn as astronomers
record or we ourselv.* have seen. It was a
lereavement of the heavens! Darker! Un
til the towers of the temple were no longer
visible. Darker! Until the surrounding
hills disappear and. Darker! Uutil the
inscription ab >ve the middle cross becomes
illegibia Darker! Until the chin of the
dying Lord falls upon the breast, and he
sighed with this last sigh, the words, “It is
finished!”
As we sat there a silence took possession
of us, and we thought: This is the center
from which contint nts have been touched
and ail the world shall yet be moved.
Toward this hill the prophets pointed for
ward. Toward this hill the apostles and
martyrs pointed backward. To this all
heaven pointed downwar i. To this, with
foaming execrations, perdition pointed up
ward. Round it circles all hist tv, all time,
all eternity, and with this scene painters
have covered the mightiest canvas, and
sculptors out the richest marble, and orches
tras rolled their grandest oratorios, and
churches lifted their greatest doxologies,
and heaven built its highest thrones.
Unable longer to endure the pressure of
this scene, we moved on, and into a garden
of olives, a garden which in the right season
is full of flowers, and here is the reputed
tomb of Christ. You know the book says,
“In the midst of the garden wis a sepul
cher." I think this was the garden and this
the sepulcher. It is shattered, of course.
About four steps down we went into this,
which seemed a family tomb. There is
room in it for about five booties. We meas
ured it, and found it about
eight feet high, anti nine feet
w-de, and fourteen feet long. The
crypt where I think our Lord slept was
seven feet long. I think that there once
lay the king wrapped in his lost slumber.
On some of these rocks, the Roman govern
ment set its seal. At the gate of this
mausoleum on the first Easter morning,
the angels rolled the stoic, thundering
down the bill Up these stops walked the
lacerated feet of the conqueror, and from
those bights, he looked off upon the city
that had cast him out, and upon the world
he tad come to redeem, and at the heavens
through which he would soon ascend.
But we must hasten hack to the oity.
There nre stones in the wall which Solomon
had lifted. Stop here and see a startling;
proof of the truth of prophecy. In Jere
miah xxxi., 40, it Is said that Jerusalem
shall be built through the ashes. What
ashes, the people have been asking? Were
those ashes just put into the prophecy to
fill up? No! the meaning has been recently
discovered. Jerusalem is now being built
out in a certain direction where the
ground has been submitted to chemical anal
ysis, and it has been found to be the ashes
cast out from the sacrifices *of the ancient
temole, ashes of the wood and ashes of
bones of animals. There are great mounds
of ashes, accumulation of centuries of sac
rifices. It has taken all these thousands of
years to discover what Jeremiah meant
when he said: “Behold the days shall come
saith the Lord that the city shall be built to
the Lord from the tower of Hananeel unt >
the gate of the corner, and the whole
valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes.”
The people of Jerusalem are at this very
time fulfilling that prophecy. One hand
ful of that ashes on which they are
building enough to prove the divinity
of the Scriptures! Pass by the
place w ere the corner-stone of the
ancient tern ile was laid throe thousand
years ago by Solomon. Explorers have
been digging, and they found that corner
stone seventy-five feet beneath the surface.
It is fourteen feet long, and three feet eight
inches high, and beautifully cut and shaped,
and Dear it was an earthen jar, that was
supposed to have contained the oil of con
secration used at the ceremony of laying
the corner-stone. Yonder, from a depth of
forty feet, a signet ring has been brought up,
inscribed with the words, “Haggai. the Son
of Shebnaiah,” showing it belonged to the
prophet H ggai, and to that seal ring here
fers in his prophecy, sayiug, “1 will make
thee as a signet.” 1 walk further on, far
under ground,aud I find myself in Solomon’s
stables, and see the places worn in the stone
pillars by the halters of some of his twelve
thousand horses. Further on, look at the
pillars ou which Mount Moriah was built.
You know that the mountain was too small
for the temple, and so they built the moun
tain out ou pillars, and I saw eight of
those pillars, each one strong enough to hold
a mountain.
Here we enter the Mosque of Omar, a
throne of Mohammedanism, where we are
met at the door by officials who bring
slippers that wo must put on before we
take a step further, lest our feet pollute the
sacred places. A man attempting to go in
without these slippers would be struck doad
on the spot. Those awkward sandals ad
justed as well as we could, we are led to
where we see a rock with an opening in it
through which, no doubt, the blood of sacri
fice in the ancient temple rolled down and
away. At vast expense the mosque has
been built, but so |-.omber is the plaoo I am
glad to get through it and take off the cum
brous slippers, and step into the clear air.
Yonder is a curve of stone which is part
of a bridge which ouce reached from Mount
Moriah to Mount Zion, and over it David
walked or rode to prayers in the temple.
Here is the wailing place of the Jews where
for centuries almost perpetually during the
dav time, whole generations of the Jews
have stood putting their head or lips
against the wall of what was once Solo
mon’s temple. It was one of the saddest
and most solemn and impressive
scenes I ever witnessed to see scores
of these descendants of Abraham with
tears rolling down their cheeks, and lips
trembling w ith emotion, a book of
psalms open before them, bewailing the
ruin of the aucient temple and the captivity
of their race, and crying to God for the
restoration of the temple in all its original
splendor. Most affecting scene! And such
a prayer as that, century after century, I
am sure God will answer, and in some way
the departed grandeur will return, or some
thing better. I looked over the shoulders
of some of them and saw that they were
reading from the mournful psalms of David,
while I have been told that this is the litany
which some chant:
“For the temple that lies desolatej
We sit in solitude and mourn;
For trie palace that is destroyed.
We sit in solitude and mourn;
For the wails that are overthrown.
We sit in solitude and mourn;
For our majesty that is departed,
We sit iu solitude and mourn;
For our great men that lie dead.
We sit in solitude and mourn;
For priests who have stumbled.
We sit in solitude and mourn.’’
1 think at that prayer Jerusalem will come
again to more than itsanciontmagmflcence;
it may not be precious stones and archi
tectural majesty, but in a moral splendor
t hat shall eclipse forever all that David or
Solomon saw.
But I must get back to the house-top
■where I stood early this morning, and be
fore the sun sets, that I may catch a wider
vision of what the City now is and once
was. Standing here ou the bousi-top, I see
that the city was built for military safetv.
Some old warrior, I warrant, selected the
spot. It stands on a hill twenty-six hun
dred feet above the level of the sea, and
deep ravines on three sides do the work of
military tynches. Com; act as no other
city wasc mpaot. Only three miles journey
round, ami the three undent towers, Hip
pieus, Phasavlus, Mnriamno, frowning
death upon the approach of all enemies.
As I stood there on the house-top in the
nml3t of the city, 1 said, “0 Lord, reveal to
me this metropolis of the world, that I may
see it as it once appeared." No one was
with me, for there are some things you can
see more vividly wit n no one but God and
yourself pros-nt. Immediately the mosque
of Omar, which has stood for ages on Mount
Moriah, the site of the ancient temple, dis
appeared and the most honored struc ure of
ail the ago-. lifted itseif in th>* light and I
saw It —the temple, the ancient temple!
Not Solomon’s temple, but something
grander than that. Not Zerubhabel’s tem
ple, but something more gorgeous than that.
It was Herod's temple built f >r the one pur
pose of eclipsing all its architectural prede
cessors. There it stood, covering nine
ten acres, and ton thousand workmen had
been forty-six years in building it. Blaze
of magnificence! Bewildering range of
porticos, and ten gate ways, and double
arches, and Corinthian capitals chiseled
into lilies and acanthus. Masonry boveel
and groove 1 into such delicate forms that it
seemed t> tremble in the light. Cloisters
with two rows of Corinthian columns,
royal arches, marble steps pure as though
made out of frozen snow, carving that
seemed like a panel of the door of heaven
let down and set in. the facade of the build-
ing on shoulders at each end lifting the
glory higher and big er, and walls wherein
gold put out the silver, and the carbu icle
put out the gold, and the jasper put out the
carbuncle, until in the changing light they
would all soera to come back again into a
chorus of harmonious color. The temple!
The temple! Dox >logy in stone? Anthems
soaring in rafters of Lebanon cedar! Fr rn
side to side and from foundation to gilded
pin 1 aole, the frozen prayer of all ages!
From this house-top on the December
afternoon we look out in another direction
and I see the king’s palace covering a hun
dred and sixty-thousand square feet, three
rows of windows illumining the inside bril
liance, the hall-way wainscoted with all
styles of colored marbles surmounted by
arabesque, Vermillion and gold, looking
down on mosiacs, music of waterfalls in the
garden outside answe ing the music of the
harps thrummed by deft fingers inside;
banisters over which princes and princesses
leaned, and talked to kings and queens
ascending the stairway. O Jerusalem,
Jerusalem! Mountain city! cty of God?
Joy of the whole earth! Stronger than
Gibraltar and Sebastopol surely it never
could have been captured.
But while standing there on the house
top that Ducember afternoon, I hear the
cra-h of the twenty-three mighty sieges
whic i have come against Jerusalem in tne
agi'S past. Yonder is the pool of Hezekiah
and Siloam, but again and again were those
waters reddened with human gore. Yonder
are the towers, but again and again they
fall. Yonder arc the high walls, but again
amt again they were leveled. To rob the
treasures from her temple and palace and
dethrone this queen city of the earth, all
nations plotted. David taking the throne
at Hebron decides that he must have
Jerusalem for his capital and, c lining up
from the south at the head of two hundred
and eighty thousand troops, he captures it.
Look, here comes another siege of Jerusa
lem! The Assyrians under Sennacherib,
enslaved nations at his chariot wheel, hav
ing taken two hundred thousand captives
in his one campaign, Phoenician cities
kneeling at his feet, Egypt trembling
at the flash of his sword, comes upon Jeru
salem. Look another siege! The arm es of
Babylon under Nebuchadnezzar comedown
and take a plunder from Jerusalem such as
no other city ever had to yield, and ten
thousand of her citizens trudge oft into
Babylooian bondage. Look, another siege!
and Nebuchadnezzar and his hosts by night
go through a breach of the Jerusalem wall,
and the morning finds some of t em seated
triumphant in the temple, and what they
could not take a wav because ton heavy,
they break up—the brazen sea, and the two
wreathed pillars Jaehin and Boaz.
Another siege of Jerusalo in; and Pompey
with the battering-rams which a hundred
men would roll back, and then at full ruu
forward would tmng against the wall of the
city, and catapults hurling the rocks upon
the people, left 12,000 dead, and the city in
the clutch of the Roman war-eagle. Look,
a more desperate siege of Jerusalem! Titus
with his tenth legion on Mount of Olives,
and ballast arranged on the principle of the
pendulum to swing great boulders against
walls and towers, and miners dig
ging under the city making gal
leries of beams underground, which,
set on fire, tumbled great masses of houses
and human beings into destruction and
death. All is taken now but the temple,
and Titus, the conqueror, wants to save
that unharmed, but a soldier, contrary to
orders, hurls a torch into the temple and it
is consumed. Many strangers were in the
city at the time, and 97,000 captives were
taken, and Josephus says 1,100,000 lay dead.
But looking from this house-top, the siege
that most absorbs us is that of the Cru
saders. England, and France, and all
Christendom, wanted to capture the holy
sepulcher and Jerusalem, then in posses
sion of the Mohammedans under the com
mand of one of the loveliest, bravest and
mightiest men that ever lived, for justice
must be done him though he was a Moham
medan —glorious Salaiin! Against him
came the armies of Europe, under Richard
Coeur de Lion, King of England. Philip
Augustus, King of France; Tailored, Ray
mond, Godfrey aud other valiant men,
marching on through fevers, and plagues,
and battle charges, and sufferings, as in
tense os tbe world ever saw. Haladin in
Jerusalem, hearing of the sickuess of King
Richard, his chief enemy, sends him
his own physician, and from the walls
of Jerusalem seeing King Richard
afoot, semis him a horse. With all
the world looking on, ,tho armies of
Europe come within sight of Jerusalem.
At tbe first glimpse of the city they fall o i
their faoes in reverence, and then lift
anthems of praise. Feuds aud hatred
among thomselves were given up, and Ray
mond and Tanered, the bitterest rivals,
embraced while the armies looked on. Thou
the battering-rams rolled, and the catapults
swung, aud the swords thrust, and the car
nage raged. Godfrey of Bouillon Is the
first to mount the wall, and the Crusaders,
a cross on every shoulder or breast, having
taken the city, march bare-headed and bare
footed to what they suppose to be the holy
sepulcher, and kiss the tomb. Jerusalem
the possession of Christendom. But Sala lin
retook the city, aud for the last four hun
dred years it has been in possession of cruel
and polluted Mohammedanism!
Another crusade is needed to etart for
Jerusalem, a crusade in this nineteenth cen
tury greater than all those of the past
centuries put together. A crusade in
which you and I will march. A crusade
without weapons of death, but only the
sword of the spirit. A crusade that will
make not a single wound nor start not one
tear of distress, nor incendiarize one home
stead. A crusade of gospel peace; and the
cross agaiu be lifted ou Calvary, not ns
once, an instrument of pain, but a signal of
invitation, and the mosque of Omar shall
Sve place to a church of Christ, and
ount Zion become the dwelling place not
of David but of David’s Lord, and Jerusa
salem, purified of all its idolatries, and
taking back the Christ she once eaßt out,
shall be made a worthy type
of that heavenly city which Paul styled
“the mother of us all,” and which
Saint John saw, “the holy Jerusalem
descending out of heaven from God.”
Through its gates may wo all enter when
our work is done, and in its temple, greater
than all the earthly temples piled iu one,
may we worship, Russian pilgrims lined
all the roads around the Jerusalem, wo vis

A 30P3-WALKING SPOOK.
The Spectacle Seen by Three Reput
able Men in St. Catharine, an ad a.
From the Fete York Sun.
Ottawa, Oct. 8. —On Sunday evening, a
few minutes before 7 o’clock, three men
were standing in front of VoLard’s grocery
store at Bt. Catharine in conversation.
Suddenly one of them exclaimed: “That
man will fall and be killed.” He directed
| the attention of his oomoanioaa to a l ouse
| just across the street, where, outlined
against tbe sky, was plainly seen the figure
of a man walking along the edge of tbe
roof from the chimney to the edge of tiie
eavetrougb. The figure appeared to be
about eight feet in bight, and balanced
above his head he held a long pole, such
as is used by tight rope waiters. The
trio looked breathlessly at the
spectable, expecting every mo
ment to see the man fall to the ground.
Turning slowly around, tbe figure ascended
the root again, walking on tne extreme
edge, poised for a moment on tne point of
the roof, then appeared to diminish in size,
finally disippeanng alt getter. Ti.e three
men were almost terror-stricken, and rushed
across the street into the yard, expecting to
find taat the man bad fallen, but no trace
of man or pole could be found. The men
who saw the weird sight are respectable,
reputable people, aud they agree in their
recital of the story, with the single excep
tion that one of them says the man was in
his shirt sleeves and had dark vest and
trousers, while the others say that he had a
full suit of dark clothes on. Tbe heavy
pole was distinctly seen by all t ree, held
by the figure. A sharp watch has been
kept on the spot since, but the spook has not
reappeared.
SHE WAS WIFE NO. 7.
With All Lamolne’s Faults Miss Nois
ier Loves Him Still.
Charlotte, N. C., Oct. 10. —Miss Corinne
Noisier, one of the most vivacious and
lovely young ladies that ever graced Char
lotte society circles, is just now figuring in
one of the most sensational marriages ever
known in this country. Last June Miss
Neisler, while on a visit to Atlanta, met
Charles G. Lamoine, a dashing young man
about 20 years of agq and soon she became
engaged to him. Hho returned to Chari .tte
and the match was bitterly opposed by her
parents, lut soon Miss eisler was off for a
visit to Richmond, where she again met
Lamoine, and an elopement was arranged.
They went to Boston, which Lamoine
claimed was his home, aud there they were
married.
Soon after this Mrs. C. G. lamoine of
Cincinnati came here and told Miss Corinne
she had married her husband, who had de
serted her last April, and she had been
hunting for him ever since. She said he
had had five other wives. When Mrs. La
moine left she said she was going to con
tinue her search until she found her husband
and brought him to justice. She found him
in Manchester, N. IL, uud he was promptly
arrested and jailed. Wife No. 7 was also
jailed. At the trial Lamoine was held in
SSOO bail, and wife No. 7 fined S2O aud her
marriage nullified.
Miss Neisler returned to her home here,
but kept up a daily corespondence witli
Lamoine. Last night she received a tele
gram from him saying that his wife hail
withdrawn the prosecution a id that he was
free and had secured a divorce from her,
and his other wives were silent. He pro
posed that they meet in Louisville, Ky., and
be again united in marriage. This Miss
Neisler agreed to, and left for Louisville to
meet him this morning.
THE PRICE OF LOVE.
John Logan Sues B. J. Martin for
SIO,OOO Damages.
Memphis, Texn., Oct, 10.—Time was
when love was defined as an unknown
something which nobody could define,
something equally as difficult to get an idea
of as the scholastic dissertations on being.
Shasespeare made an effort to tell posterity
what it is, but posterity realized as a love
dofiner the gentleman was not a glittering
success. In this age, to get an idea of what
the thing is, the cost is invariably ascer
tained. Mouey is the standard of
comparison for nearly everything, and
a suit was filed in the circuit court yester
day where the value of love was figured out
in dollars aud cents.
J. W. Logan filed a suit against B. J.
Martin for $10,009 damages for alienating
his wife’s affections.
Several w.<eks ago Mrs. Fannie Logan
filed a petition for divorce from her hus
band, alleging adultery among other things.
Logan filed an order yesterday, in which he
demurred to the plea of the plantiff, alleg
ing that it was insufficient as to time and
place.
Following this he sued B. J. Martin for
alienating his wife’s affections.
He alleges in this bill that tnrough the in
fluence of Martin his wife took a dislike to
him, which was the cause of her filing the
bill to secure a divorce.
Logan values the loss of his wife’s love at
SIO,IXIO, and asks for that amount from the
defendaut.
HEIRS TO $80,000,000.
Three Poor Men of Trenton Claim a
Vast English Estate.
Trenton, N. J., Oct. 10.—Joseph T. Cap
pie and his three brothers, all poor men,
living here, say they have received infor
mation leading them to believe that they
are heirs to the estate of James Wood, de
ceased, of England, who left property
worth $80,000,000. Mr. Wood, who was
a banker in Gloucester, England,
was a brother of Mrs. Cappie, the
mother of the claimants, and they, it is
claimed, are the nearest kin. Mrs. Cappie
and her brother never met, he having been
born in England and she in this country.
Mr. Wood died several years ago, but the
Capples did not learn this fact until re
cently. Trev claim to have the names and
the dates of births, marriages and deaths of
their family for three generations. The
attorney for the brothers has sailed for
England for the purpose of presenting their
claims.

BATTLING FOR A BRIDB.
At Last Accounts the Franklin Man
fteems to Have Got Her.
Nsw York. Oct. 12.—A young man in a
light buggy, drawn by a foam-covered horse
running at break-neck speed, was tbe sight
that electrified ;ieople who were on Main
street, Belleville, N. J., on Tuesday last.
Only a few minutes before a carriage con
taining a young lady and gentleman
had passed down the street la the
and rection of Newark, without attracting
more than ordinary attention. Half an
hour later the youn; man who had driven
so recklessly returned with the young lady
in his buggy, but her former companion
was not i o sight. Tne couple drew up be
fore the Belleville hotel and alighted. The
young man was pale and a trifle nervous,
while the cheeks of his fair companion were
prettily lined with scarlet. It was evident
that they had been having an “understand
ing.”
Inside tbe hotel tbe young man confiden
tially informed the landlord that be and
the young Indy were to l>e married there,
and asked to be directed to the offioe of a
justice of the peace. Constable Deigban
was sent for and o msonted to accompany
the gentleman to the house of Justiee La
Foncbere. The justice, after considerable
persuasion, agreed to go to the hotel and
perform the ceremony. Here the aptness
of the adage, “There is many a slip ’twixt
the cup and the Up,” was illustrated in a
striking manner.
The expectant groom found, upon return
ing to the ho:el, that during h s absence the
y ung lady’s former companion had driven
to the door, induced her to come out, and
finally to get iu his buggy and drive off
with him. Tne couple drove across the
Belleville bridge in the direct.on of Jersey
City, where it is supp sed that they were
married. The gentleman who was so
unceremoniously left iu the lurch by the
fickle-minded maiden said he was Wm.
McKeon of Newtly, aid that the couple
who bad just driven away were Miss Alice
Sinclair, also of Newtly, and Frederick
Cushing of Franklin. McKeon said he
w a3 to have been married to the young lady
on Sunday.
On Saturday evening she sent him word
that the ceremony would have to be post
poned. Hu called at the house for an ex
planation, but was unable to obtain an in
terview with her. He went away after
being told to call on Tuesday morning.
He went to the young lady’s home at tie
appointed time onivtoiearu that she had
gone away with young Cushing. Later be
learned that Miss Sinclair had gone off
with Cushing to be married. He deter
mined to give chase, and if possible prevail
upon the y mug lady to keep her promise
made tiim.
He overtook the couple on the river road
near Belleville, and after a lively inter
change of words between himself and the
occupants of the other c mveyance the girl
consented to return with him to the hotel
and be married by a justice of tho peace.
While he was seesing the justice Cushing,
who had been watc.iiug the hotel, appeared
on the scene and induced Miss Siuclair to
drive off with him again.
ELOPED WITH THE BE3 r MAN.
A Cincinnati Belle Marries Her In
tended Husband’s Friend.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Cincinnati, Oct. B.—For several weeks
Dayton street society, which is among ths
best ip Cincinnati, has been preparing for
the marriage next Tuesday 'of George
Brady, a well-known sneiety leader, and
Miss Alice Whetstone, the daughter of the
former well-known cashier of the pos,office.
For best man Brady selected his intimate
friend aud neighbor, Tom Mackey. The
young man accepted the honor, and he, too,
was soon busied with getting the conven
tional dress suit for the occasion. Brady
was very faithful in his attention to his
prospective bride, and bis frequent visits to
her house were commented upon very favor
ably as showing his devotion for the woman
he expected to call his wife.
Not a cloud appeared to mar the happiness
of the expectant groom, and even the very
warm friendship of his best man to his lady
love did not arouse his s spicions. The
attentions of Mackoy to Miss Whetstone,
howover, caused talk in the neighborhood.
Brady looked upon the girl with eyes of
love only, and never for au instant sus
pected the plot that was being hatched
a ;ainst him.
Yesterday morning the residents of Day
ton street were astounded by reading a no
tice in the Covington columrs of the < aiiy
press announcing the marr age in that c ,y
of Mr. Mackey aud Miss Alice Whi s one.
As the hours flew by the gossips g it to w h k
and the startling truth became known that
Miss Whetstone had cruelly jilted Brady
and had married the best man. Then there
was a sensation.
Just who broke the news to Bradv is not
known, but certain it is that he was almost
prostrated over the affair. He was ad used
by his friends to pay no attention to it, and
to lot his love for the fickle woman gradu
ally die out. Biariy, however, brooded
over the trouble until he became almost

THE BELLE OF SARATOGA.
She is Mias Julia Moroslni and Wears
Tailor-Made Clothes.
Saratoga, Oct. 10.—The belle of Sara
toga this year of 1890 is Miss Julia Moro
sini. She rides down Broadway in a tailor
made habit of light gray, a silk hat sitting
squarely on the coil of her dark brown
hair. There is nothing spirituelle ab rat
Miss Morosini. She is well put up and
there Is plenty of avoirdupois.
She si.s her plutnp chestnut mare with
great dignity and looks straight ahead be
tween the the mare’s ears. At exactly toe
proper distauce the groom, in a buff coat,
corduroy knee-breeches and top boots, fol
lows, upon a stout bay gelding. He has a
cockade on his hat and carries a riding
whip braced against his side at just the
proper angle. When Miss Morosini trots
the groom trots, and when Miss Morosini
canters the grootn centers. The chestnut
mare and the bay gelding are usually
allowed to walk down Broadway, between
the hotels, at a dress parade gait. W hen
she turns into a side street Miss Morosini
touches the mare and away the possession
goes.
Guests on the piazzas have noted that the
groom is young and handsome, with a fine
Hibernian tint on his smooth cheeks. Miss
Morosini’s elder sister is said to be traveling
in Europe. Schilling, the ex-coachir.an.
when last heart! from was conductor on a
New York street car. The fresh-faced
groom is in no danger. Miss Julia will
uever wound the family pride as Victoria
did. Miss Julia Is her father’s own girl.
At Saratoga Mr. Moro.-ini is usually re
ferred to as ‘Jay Gould’s partner.” He has
one of the finest cottages at the Statos, and
he lives like a prince.

i MR. WYBR WANTS SIOO,OOO.
iHe Claims That Ex-Congressman
Pierce ctole Ela Wife’s fractions.
Buffalo, N. Y, Oct. 12.—1 t has just
leaked out that Dr. Ray V. Pierce Is de
fendant in a suit for SIOO,OOO. on the ground
of bavrng alienated the affections of Mrs.
Williams. Wysaof New York. Dr. Pierce
j is the millionaire proprietor of one of the
| beet advertised patent medicines in the
world, ex-e’ate senator and member of the
: Forty-sixth congress. He is a prominent
member of the Uuiversolist church is tbis
ettv.
William Wve was prominently con
nected with Harper's Weekly when Dr.
Pierce first formed his friendship; fifteen
years ago. He is a polished gentleman,
who numbers among his friends a me of the
most promtuent men in New York. Ho
was a chum of Grover Cleveland when the
latter lived in Buffalo, and the latter was
one of tbe few witneeias to the marriage of
Mr. and Mrs. Wyse, which was sdemmzed
here It is quite possible that ex-President
Cleveland brought tbe two together. At
any rate, they had made a good many visits
to the white house.
Wyse had about $150,000. Mrs. Wyse
went abroad aud refused to return unless the
whole of tbis sum was turned over to her.
Wyse consented finally, and then the two
lived together. They quarreled frequently.
The trouble came to a climax when Dr.
Pieroe was in San Francisco, where the two
happened to be. According to his own
story, made in a suit afterward brought
against the wife, Wyse was thrown out of
his room by bis better half, and his baggage
setit flying into the hallway of the hotel.
That was in 1888.
The pair afterward came east, and con
tinued on terms of apparent friendship with
Dr. Pierce, who saw them oo asionatly in
New York, uutil the d< ctor was, as he says,
dumfounded at the service of the summons.
He said to-night, "I can only explain this
proceeding by Wyse’s Impoverished condi
tion. He has beea living from hand to
mouth since his wife got every cent he
had.”
Dr. Pierce would make no oharges against
Mrs. Wyse, but admitted that he had been
investigating her life here. He states
that her husband had charged at one time
that she married him in ordor to get his
money.
Dr. Pierce is 50 years old and married.
Wyse is about 60. Mrs. Wyse is'about
45. Dr. Pierce says the case is blackmail,
and that he will light it to tho bitter end.

DLirn would have a faint or tired,

In loving remembrance of
THOMAS HENDERSON,
who e tered that glorious mansion above Oct.
13th. 1880, to dwell with God forever.
But why weep we over thy tomb!
Tnou art now in the home of the Meet,
Where before us the ‘lark river flow*
O'er which thou art safe and at rest.
The hand we ever loved to c asp.
That tirel-ss hand which knew no rest,
Lot-s.-d from affection’s dinging grasp.
Lies nerveless on tbe peaceful breast.
The air seems darkened by his lose.
Earth's shad wed features look less fair,
And heavier weighs tne drily cross
His willing shoulders belpled us bear.
