pastor elect of the Calvary Presbyterian Church preached last night to a large audience on the Becognition of Friends in Heaven The text was chosen from Pauls First Epistle to the Corinthians viii 12 For now we see through a glass darkly but there face to face ow 1 know in part but then shall I know even as also I am known The pastor stated that the subject telonged wholly to the realmof faith that no couriers had ever brought messages from the world beyond the grve and hence there was no positive information upon which to base a declaration But reasoning from the experience of human belhgs here from the teachings of nature and the scriptures the proof was as conclusive to his mind as a mathematical demonstration that we will meei and know each other in heaven Assuming first the doctrine of the ini mortality of the soul as true the pastor asserted that death would make no change in our identity that our mental faculties would remain unimpaired and we would be able to locate all previous events of history in time The soul would be transferred in its entirety across the river of death just as the traveler who passes from one country to another preserveshis identity and the recollection of scenes and incidents in his previous experience In answer to the question How shall we be able to recognize one another Dr Kaston stated that there would be a resemblance in the

ANDTHEATER A PREACHER MEASURES THEIR INFLUENCE The riay He Tblnks Can Be Made to Serve ma Noble mn End as the Pulpit Every available seat was occupied in the Howard street Methodist Church list evening The pastor Rev Dr Uarcourt preached on The Church and the Theater The text was taken from Matthew vii 16 Do men gather grapes ot thorns Or figs of thistles Every tree is known by its fruits The law of cause and effect said the preacher runs through all the ramifications of life I hold it si right and proper that whatever is popular with the people demands the careful attention and consideration of the min ister the Gospel I therefore believe that my subject to night is a rational and legitimate one lor it must be conceded that there is no form of entertainment thai has such a hold upon the interests and affecuontof the people as the theater Many of us have drawn our somber ideas of religion from paganLsm be saicL ve nave somenow ionnea tne idea that black is thecolor most nleas lng to heaven Most of us have lingering atound us the idea that a good faugh is not heavenly and therefore ought to be suppressed Away with such nonsense We may be very happy and not irreligious and we maybe very solemn and not a bit religion In mans nature there i a demand for amusement and recreation and the church of the future cannot afford to overlook this fact nor fail to meet it I believe in a healthy Christianity a Christianity with sunshine in it we hare bad enough of the sixteenth century jsortr I only know of itfrom history and the traces of it yet lingering around some creeds but the more I know of It the less 1 think of ray ancestors I do hot want the church of the nineteenth century to drift back to the ruddiness and the stupidity of the dark ages The preacher showed the great difference between the Americana the Enay Ush and the Germans in their manner of living Our ambition he said Is to get as much donein the shortest time as possible Therefore there is no time for recreation In the hurry and struggle of life He described the world as a theater where every man is playing some part and said that upon the character of the theater and tbe play depends the attitude the church should assume toward it and if In the amuse ment which it furnished theliendencr was downward and not upward car tainry inw caurcn snouia oppose it with all iu might That the theater micht be made to serve as noble an end as the pulpit he steadfastly believed bnt that it ever will he seriously doubted and gave as one ressoa that sacred dramas could hot be mada to pay He ipoke of the powerful influ ence of the theater saying that for one who attends church there five in our city who attend the theater There was no rise In concertina true tact that the pulpit has not as great an influence on the lives of man and women today as the stage He gave as one reason whr this was so that the churches are sot made to meet thecomlorU of tha pwpltv A DispnteOvcr a Bridle

just killed my cousin Will Hart out at the ranch The speaker was Cyrus Corrick a young man 20 years of age son of Corrick a wealthy mineJwner aid rancher of this county The person addressed was Deputy Sheriff Moore at the County Jail who was at first Inclined to discredit the statement so frankly made Young Corrick has often been seen around the ail and nothing was thought of his appearance on this occasion as be took a seat and coolly took in theVurroundings teffre saying anything farther than this bare statement Young Corrick refused to give any details of the shooting He was placed in a cell where he was shortly afterward visited by a CnsosicLx reporter He was notin the least excited and quietly answered all questions except those which led up to the cause of the killing He stated that he had first visited his lawyer which explained his silence on that question The reporter next visited the Morgue and examined the body of the victim Hart a young man about 21 years of age One bullet had Entered his chin and passed around making an exit at the back of the neck Four bullets had penetrated vital portions of the body any one of which was pronounced fatal by physiciaus The Billy Martin mine In Temperance Hat which has long been the subject of dispute and bloodshed has indirectly led to this tragedy Henry Sullivan yesterday appeared before Justice of tbe Feace liogue to show cause why he should not be bound over to keep the peace toward Corrick Two years ago Corrick obtained a judgment of the court which decreed nim half owner of the Billy Martin mine He visited the mine shortly after tbe judgment was rendered and got into an altercation with Sullivan Corrick wounded cjuilivan with a Henry rise Sullivan returned the fire and wounded one of Corrick men The participants in this tragedy were all acquitted of the charges preferred one against the other but Corrick never went near the mine again for the reason as he says tnat his life was in danger hence the citation for Sullivan to appear in court and show cause why he should not be bound over to keep the peace Corrick testified In substance that he went to the mine shortly after be was adjudged half owner by the court and that he took with him three men for the purpose of working the claim when he met Sullivan in the vicinity of the claim and told that gentleman of iris intention to work tbe mine You got it through rotten Judge and lying witnesses replied 8ullivan When Corrick went to work Sullivan came around armed with a pick handle and endeavored to ose that implement on Corrick Corrick defended himself with a double barreled shot gunbut did not succeed in wounding ciuliivan before he had also secured firearms a Henry rifle In returning the fire Sullivan wounded Joe Barrett one of CornckS then Sullivans testimony did cot materially differ from that of Corrick except that he stated that he bad no Intention of using the pick handle on Corrick Sullivans testimony concluded as follows Since 1 was shot I have never spoken to Corrick 1 don know who the mine belongs to There is a notice on it there in the name of Fat Reddy my lawyer The mine was located by my wife in January 1883 and it was relocated in January 183 If torriclc goes up there to work that mine I wont molest him I wont even speak to him He can work there all he wants to I am not in possession of the property and I am not under any contract to keep possession ol it for Keddy The case was continued indefinitely in order to obtain 1 tbe evidence of Joe Harnett who lives in the neighborhood of the mine The circumstances of to days tragedy were related by JVV Hammerson young man who was an eye witness to the bloody affair Said he When the court adjourned yesterday afternoon Mr Corrick told his son Cyrus and myself to get ready by this morning to go up to the mine and do some assessment work He told us to go by the ranch about four miles from town and change teams We got ah early start and arrived at the ranch about 6 oclock Hart nephew of Mr Corrick who was killed was employed on the ranch We drove up to the stable to change horses but Hart refused to give up the horses saying that it would interfere with one of the teams he was using on the place Some warm words were exchanged between Corrick and Hart but finally the latter relented and the change in horses was made Corrick then went into the stable for an extra bridle which Hart said he should not have and Hart followed to prevent his taking it When Corrick was in the act of taking the bridle Hart made a lunge at him with a large knife Corrick dodged the blow and retreated until he could draw his plstoL He fired one shot which struck Hart in the chixuind the ball came out at the back of his neck Dont shoot cried Hart take the bndle Corrick did as directed when Hart with blood streaming from his wound started tor the house about thirty yarns from the barn Corrick probably suspected that Hart had gone for his Henry rifle and not wanting to be made a target of at long ranger pursued him to the house where he found the wounded man in the act oi removingthe rifle front under the mattress of one of the beds Corrick again opened fire with the result already stated The shot which wounded Hart In the chin struck a valuable horse just behind the shoulders It is believed that the animal will die COSTLY FOKER vHIPS A Handsome Set Tstat Cost Two Dollars Apiece Cleveland rialndealer In a private residence op town in Washington there is the finest set of poker chips that were ever manufactured In this country Their history is interesting They were made for the famous John Morrissey Congressman State Senator anti Tamraany shouldershoulder hitter pugilist and gambler Before Morrissey started bis famous Saratoga gambling bouse he had a place on Barclay street in New York While there a party of Western sportsamong whom was the famous Big Head Riley of California called on Morrissey and during the week managed to win about 30000 from him As they had been treated very elabo ratel and won so much they determined to ghe Morrissey some token of their diatineuisbed consideration After some discntskin It was decided to have made the finest rack of poker chips that money couid buy The chipsnow in Washington were the result of that determination There were 1000 chips with a few Odd ones to makeup for any that might be lost or broken Upon each chip is a earring made by hand On tbe white ones is a small figure without special significant on the others are carved tbe figures 5 andr23 in a center of red and yellow Each chip is carved by hand and from the finest heart ivory that could be found in the city ol IsewTerk The total tost of the set was over 2000 or 2 apiece When they were given to Morrissey they were polished to the highest degree and shone and glistened in the light as though they were silver The case which stilt hokls them is of rosewood finely polished and in the top is set a tiger couchant ot polished brass two enormous cats ejti being sunk In the head and giving it a peculiar animated appearance Kow because tbe chips were given to him by winners MorrisseyMorrissey thought it would be bad luck to use them in tbe same place and in consequence they were not used until after Morrissey started his place at Saratoga Then tlie superstition worked in accordance with tbe gamblers idea And the first time they were used in a heavy game Morrissey lost over 50 000 Then he put them ori exhibition and they were stolen within ten days Some months After they were recognized in a Bowery pawnshop where the thief had pawned them Ior 75 Morrissey redeemed ihsnv and shortly afterward they were stolen again A young Englishman who was doing the country bought them from the thief and carried them to Chicago After the habit of young Englishmen the tourist in question became hard up and sold them to the present owner who brosshWtiieni to Washington where they have beenor two jrears and have been played with by some ot the heaviest poker players in the capital I was shown them the other day and they bear no more signs of use than if they had been bought yesterday DOM PEDROS FEARS HIS FORECAST OF THE TROUBLE LN BRAZIL His Daughter and Her Heart Spirited French Unsband Detested Both Under Clerical Control A St Thomas correspondent of the Sew York rritruns says A curious account ot Dam Pedros last visit to the rich province of San Paulo has been given to me by an American missionary residing in Brazil The Emperor touched as he invariably was by the signs of popular respect and afiection was led in the course of a confidential talk with one of bis entertainers there to contrast his on popularity with the coldness and indiHerence shown toward other members of his household I shall reign as long as I live he exclaimed for the Brazilians know me My daughter perhaps My grandchildren I dont know This forecast ol the fortunes of the dynasty was made hardly more than a yer ao It Js one out of many indications that Dora Pedro while he did not expect to lose his throne in his old Age clearly discerned the approaching revolution and the inevitable establishment of a re publican fornr of government My daughter perhaps was a confession that royalty was doomed in republican America Unlike Louis Philippe Dora Pedro as not a sovereign who hungered after popularity He played his part with grace and dignity as a King of a historic line With a mind swayed by liberal ideas of the functions of constitutional monarchy he made no sacrifice of his royal prerogative in adapting his reign to the conditions of modern progress Louis Philippe courted popularitypopularity with vulgar impetuosity and as King Pear he was despised and ridiculed even by the tradespeople whom he invited to court Dom Pedro did nothing during his long reign to bring the royal profession into contempt Popular prestige came to him apparently without his solicitation He did not patronizenis subjects nor affect the democratic manners of a citizen king He was loyalto the traditions of his line acting upon Chateaubriands dictum that popularity is a woman to be mastered rather than wooed Is marked contrast with his own manner were the artifices and affectations of the Orleans princes with whom his house was connected by marriage The Emperors younger sister had married one of Louis Philippes sons the Prince de Jolnville and their children tha Duke de Ppnthievre and a daughter who was married to her cousin the Duke de Chartres were among the most spirited of the Orleans princes in France The houses were moreover directly connected by the marriage of the Prir ess Imperial Isabel with the Count dEu a grandson of Louis Philippe The Prince Consort who became a member of the Council of State commander of the army and during the regency virtually the ruler of Brazil inherited all the amiable traits and respectable virtues of his family and along wilii these the fatal Orleans gift oi incurring unpopularity This 13 a joint on whteh grext stress 13 to belaid for all Brazilians whom I have met in my journey to Rio agree in pronouncing the unpopularity of the Crown Princess and her French husband one of the chief causes of the revolution The Crown Princess combined the rugged robust traits of the Emperors character with the Neapolitan religious nature of her mother daughter of the King of the two Sicilies Resolute ambitious and naturally fond of the business of state she had a passion for managing and Overreaching politician and at the same time shews a religious zealot easily controlled by spiritual advisers and by Jesuit intriguers The vigor inflexible purpose and self reliance which she displayed under the Regency were qualities which convinced thoughtful Brazilians that Dom Pedros successor would not be a weak and incapable sovereign The decree ot emancipation signed by her during her fathers absence in curope was an earnest of the force of character which she would disclose upon ascending the throne With this masculine vigor was coipled piety of a feminine type When Louis Philippe was anecting Yoltaircan ideas about religion Queen Marie Amelie was scrupulouslyscrupulously exact in her devotions and attended mass and could be seen on Sundays handing about collection bags in her parish church The Crown Princess too was a pious and devoted daughter ol the church Earlyin life she was brought nnder the influence of relixrious ad visers who convinced ier that she uaa even greater uutica sv pcxivxiu xur the church than lor the empire As time went on this ascendency over her mind was completely established As Queen Mane Amelie had bumbled herself so she was Wont to subject herself to degrading discipline A Brazilian clergyman has told me within a few days of the painful sensation created in Rio When one day it became known that the future Queen had taken a broom and swept out the aisles of a church as an act of penance This incident it the circumstances are not exaggerated disclose the absolute dominion which spiritual advisers had obtained over her -Other and indisputable evidence of this fact was not wanting It is now known that the Emancipation act eighteen months ago was the work ot tlie Jesuits rather than the Ministers of the day All parties and factions admitted the ultimate necessity for complete auolitton of slavery The slave owners themselves foresaw what was inevitably corning and were gradually preparing for the new conditions labor The Princess Regents religious guwles knowing that she and her husband were unpopular perceived the advantage of obtaining tor her the credit of liberating 1500000 slaves The Ministry being aware of the financial embarrassment and ruin that would be caused if slaveowners were taken unawares desired to defer the proclamation at least until the Emperors return The Princess RegentRegent preferred to act upon the counsel of the Jesuits It was a great stroke of state designed to wnciliate pub lie opinion and to endear the tntnre sovereign to the hearts of the people The popular re joking were tumultuous at the time but the slave owners who were unprepared for the event were thrown into a sullen resentful temper which has led them to recognize in the present revolution an act of retribution against the crown and the sober second thought

Indianapolis Sews On the Bi Four road between Cin cinnati and Indianapolis is an engine which advances the maximum speed limit enormously It Is one of five en gines buiitaccording to tne patent ot ah inventornamed Strong and is being tested by the Big Four people The engine is built for both strength and speed arid the tests of it have shown wonderful results It is claimed for it that it is capable of hauling a heavy passenger train at the rate of from aeventyfi ve to ninety miles per hour and the tests made this week while not severe have tended to sustain the claim Superintendent Bender timed it on an eight mile run east ot the city The eight miles were covered in six minutes with perfect ease not the slightest evidence of straining being perceptible The engine itself contains many novel features in construction It lias cylinders in which the escape ot the steam after it has been used is so arranged as to be a vast improvement over the common arrangement The boiler is very lotig and there are two fireboxes An ingenious contrivance consumes the gases and smoke so that economy inthe use of fuel is one of the advantages claimed The hreman has a cab to himself at tlie rear of the boiler while the enrineer occu pies a separate cab perched on thetop of the boiler a little to the rear tbe center The engineweighs sixty five tons and rests upon eighteen wheels its

expense of the State is a little boat 6tO meters long and L53 meters broad it can hold two men The body of tbe craft is cast in bronze of a single piece and can therefore bear a very bigh pressure Itis moved by electricity Which in case of failure can be replaced by oars vampieteiy axmeu is weignsuuuu kilogrammes about liO0O pounds and can therefore be transported easily everywhere The electricity as niay be safely assumed is obtained from accumulators in the boat but it seems that this propelling force can also be transferred to the boat from land or from a ship accompanying the Gem bet by means of a wire which would naturally considerably hamper the movements of the lUbmarine crafts The stores of compressed air are said to last for twenty four hours and can by an automatic arrangement pa so distributed that the state of the air in the ship is constant The boat was immersed ior eight hours at a depth of ten meters with two sailors in it ard those latter experienced not the slightest inconvenience during that period Asa special advantage it is claimed for tbe boat that it can at word of command sink any depth greatest prbably ten meters remain there and change its position at wiu The sinking and rising in the water itis said can be executed witbr the greatest regularity which Is not the case apparently with the Spanish submarine boat Peral and the other French
