Ho Beat His Wife.

Balx) Holloway was arrested yesterday ou tlio ooinphiiut of his wife who alliimed that ho had treated lu-r to

Sad Case of P-T, Hubbard. A letter from a gentleman iu South iiond states that P. T. Hubbard, formerly of Darliugton, has mot with a ten ible misfortune while iu the factory there. While taking a heavy heat tlie other day ho burned his eyes so badly that his sight is almost dispaired of. He is receiving the care of his many l'rieuds there now and everything possible will lie douo for him. Mr. Hubbard is well known iu this city, having resided in the county for 25 years.

Naucy Will Not Appeal.

The lawyers of the defense iu the caso of N iucy Lightcap have decided that the best thing to be doue is to let tho matter stand as it uow is. So no motion for new trial will be made. Mrs. Lightcap is now quite woe begone but is making the best of it, especially as having learned that her term could be shortened to eleven mouths by good behavior. She says she is sorry now that she did not follow Courtney's advice aud plead guilty and endeavor to escape through a loop hole iu tho law. Mr. Clodfelter her other attorney denies the statement made yesterday that he refused all overtures of the prosecution. The fact is, ho says, that absolutely no fair oiler was made by the prosecution at all and tho rumors which are alloat to the effect that the prosecutor ottered to annul the case if Nancy would leave town are without loundation. Tho prosecution desired her to plead guilty aud rely ou tho court for mercy. To this neither he nor Naucy would conseut. He says further that Nancy was tlatfooted for carrying on the trial and would listen to no compromise.

The Subs gave a very line exhibition aud the orations of the Peuas proved that thelhew yystem adopted last year was a success.

After the programme had been completed tho Judges, John L. Shrum, Frank Sharp and Horace F. King retired aud made up their verdict. They awarded the first prize in declamation to Curtis and second to McCain, the first prize in oratory to Coulter and second to Taylor.

Just before announcing the successful orators and declaimers, Prof. Kritz told tlie audience that W. T. Fry had leen awarded the ccholarship offered to the classical students of the preparatory contest department best prepared for the Freshman year. W. A. Swank won a similar scholarship as being the best prepared scientific. Harry M. Mount rKseived thi §10 prize offered by Prof. Kritz to the member of his Virgil class who did the best work during the last term. Instead of giving the winning speakers of the evening their books they wero given the piivilege of selecting their own volumes to be purchased at wholesale prices. The amounts to be KjK'.ut are 85 aud S3 by tho Subs aud SO and $1 by thoPeues.

Interesting Observations Concerning the Orphans' Home by an Interested Ob" server. To ie Killtor ot tin-Journal.

A few days since, through the courtesy of oue of tho directors, I enjoyed a delightful drive and visit to the Orphans' Home. Tho new uddition is a wonderful improvement. The large yard looks clean and well kept, the adjoining grouuds are under cultivation, aud iu the best of order. Grape vines neatly trimmed, long rows of thrifty raspberry bushes, tlounshiug strawberry beds and ueat walks nil testify to careful oversight aud patient, faithful labor. Inside the building pleasant rooms, nicely papered walls and comfortable furnishings make it indeed a home. We found the Matron busy painting the floor of tho new play room. A table, some benches, a blackboard, some mottoes and pictures on the wall aro the furuishiugs of this room. Just back ol it is a bath room provided with every couvonieuce. Above the play room is tlie boys' dormitory, a largo, well ventilated room, with hard wood floor, containing seventeen cots so that each may sleep alone. These cots have wire mattresses, over these cleau ticks, filled from time to time with fresh straw, a pair of sheets, nairow to fit tho cot, one good pillow, and one comfort to each. These comforts are mostly donated by friends. The Matron remarked that "she wished she had spreads for thorn." All the boys who are large enough make their own beds. Some of these Ooyc are old enough to render sei sice sufficient to pay their own way. They are regular attendants at school in the school house near the Home, and also at Center church Sunday school, and ate as intelligent, teachable rtid well behaved as the average l)oy. The directors are anxious to find homes tor them, good homes where they will be kindly treated and receive such training as will make them useful and respected members of society. A door from one end of this dormitory opens into a pleasant, airy room occupied by the hired man and the door stands open every night. Out from this dormitory is the storeroom, with long rows of shelves on two sides, rows of hooks on the other two sides, under the shelves a large wooden box where the stockings are kept. Here were loads of little waists, skirts, dresses, aprons, pants,— all garments that children wear. There was a pile of boys' pants, never worn yot, made from remnants kindly donated by Yount & Son. In another pile four little hand-made flannel sk rts,with tiiturnings and tucks, the work of four little girls in Michigan. These clothes are given out by the Matron to suit the size of the wearer, on the occasion, and nothing belongs individually to any child. Opposite the store room do ir a door leads into the girl's dormitory. In this neat little room there are at present only three cots, as the girls are usually in the minority. And here let me say if anybody feels prompted to furnish spreads for these twenty little oots, let them go before the impulse passes away aud got either white, ere-1 tonne or calico in fast colors and let them be uniform. Then let them go and take a look at the tidy little beds after they are made aud put on and they will feel well repaid. Adjoining the girl's dormitory is a room occupied by the young ladies of the family and the door between is always left open at night. In the dining room red cloths covered the tables and rows of bright tin cups and spoons showed that the children's supper had been of bread and milk. "Uood rich milk, "the matron said, "with the oream stirred in and all they wanted of it." This was their usual supper, and good enough for anybody. Besides the machine in the sewingroom stood a clothes basket nearly filled with partly made garments. The matron said that the machine was usually running, but I noticed that the propelling power was just then performing the duties of a nurse. In the nursery, in one of the cribs,a little one a few months old was quietly sleeping,another was sitting in a clothes basket, and one of tho twins seemed to prefer tiu, niatro'i's aims, giving frequent evidence with her lips and little soft hands that she loved her "Auntie." Much time and labor hus been expended on the Home and its surroundings, but some things are still needed. The directors aro too modest about makmg known their wants for surely these orphan cliild~en have claims upon all our hearts aud purses. I am going to say, on my own responsibility, and without the knowledge of any u!2ed iately concerned, that they

Aro there not some women whose eyes will not permit the doing of very nice work, or very much rouding, who would lind the cutting aud sowing of caipet rugs a relief from the monotony of "nothing that I oau see to do.'"

ONE GOOD WOMAN,

The Remarks Made by Rev. J. W.Greene At the Funeral of Mrs. Morgan. Ou accouut of the wide aqua'ultnce of tho late Mrs. Margaret Morgan and tho universal esteem iu which she was held, the following address,delivered by Kev. J.W.Greeneat the fuueral, will bo of interest to all:

Sirs. Margaret Morgan was born Oct. 14, 1814, near Piqua, Ohio. She was mamod to Dr. Samuel 13. Morgan Feb. 13, 1833. Her residence was in Piqua and iJellefontaine, Ohio, until 1811 when she came Crawfordsville, Indiana, aud since that time this city has been her home. She was the mother of six children, threo of whom Gen. W. H. Morgan, Jolm Morgan and Martha Jane Morgan are dead the three others: Dr. D. N. Morgan, Mrs. Joseph Gilbert and Mattio Morgan, survive her. She has a brother and two sisters still living, Gen. M. D. Mansou, of this city Alrs.Geyor, of Piqua, O. aud Mrs. Shattrick, of Louisiana.

Here in Crawfordsville she pursued her life work—in the family, society and the church—faithfully aud well,until her mission was accomplished.

Hers was a life of the most exemplary fidelity aud usefulness. Her life responsibilities were met bravely, and her life duties were carefully, willingly and wisely performed. Her sickness was long and severe, but an unfaltering trust in God enabled her to endure Buffering patiently, and at last bore her triumphantly through the valley of death. With a strong and commendable desire for life and usefulness, and with no time to be idle or unemployed, she battled bravely with Death until the 8th inst., when she quietly yielded, and peacefully slept,whispering, "O Lord, my Strength and my Redeemer."

Oct. 14, next, she would have been seventy-six years of age. A good long life indeed, even when measured by years but life is not estimated by time, but by deeds, and when considered by this standard she is indeed venerable. "They live lonu who live well,

All other life Is short and vain, Tliey live longest who cun tell Of true things truly (lone ouch day."

She now rests from her labors, but her life speaks back from the bright spirit world for aotivity, integrity, rurity and piety.

There are scores of persons whose lives have been made better and happier by her life, and whose etornity will be infinitely different from what it might have been had she not lived.

She was a member of the Methodist Episcopal churoh for over sixty years. Hor piety was of a practical, positive kind. Her conviotions were law, from which there was no appeal. God's word she believed with unwavering faith. When duty was made known "immediately she consulted not with flash and blood" as to policy or expediency. Consequently her piety was of a solid and abid ng character, affording her constant comfort, peace and rest. And as clearly as the pure water of the lake reflects tlie image of the blue sky above it, so clearly did her life mirror the bright Heavon she so ardently and devoutly sought for her eternal home.

Though gone from us she is still hero, living and working, in and through the lives of those whom she influenced while with' us, and to whose lives she gave that religious bent which will hold them to the paths of piety through all the labyrinths of the most busy life.

For a good thought thrown out does not perish with the sound, but time keeps it echoing baok and forth forever in nappy influence upon character. Every person is immortal here upon earth and will never oease to aot a part in the history of thib world. We «hall die, our bodies will be buried, our names will be forgotten, but that whioh constitutes the elements of life usefulness will not die. The deeds of to-day are not the deeds of to-day. The most of person's work is done after he has gone to his long home. He being dead yet speaketh now not with single voice •in and through the lives of all he influenced while living. Thus are we reminded of tho fearful responsibilities upon us in every relation in Jife. If we have influence God roquires it. If wo have education, position, wealth, talent —God requires thorn. "Where much is given much will be required." We are living in a solemn world. We are shaping destinies for eternity. The way to do good is to be good. We affect others more by what we are than by what we do.

Mrs. Morgan's homo was the sceno where her virtues and tho power of tier

influence shone most brightly. Tho inimitable description given of tho wife and mother iu the Scriptures, is the picture of the home of our deceased uiend.

To the children of worthy and affectionate parents, who are now lio more, the lemembranco of their character can never cease to bo iuterestiug. To thorn they imputo with pleasure aud gratitudo the virtues thoy may themselves possess. To their latest hour thoy reflect with melancholy pleasure ou tho foml solicitude with which thoy watched over their jufaut years. They redact with satisfaction over the pains aud expense bestowed upon their character anil education. How kiudly they relieved all their wants. Autl flow solomuly they warued them against tho paths of evil. How by their wise couusol and precepts and Godly example, they led them into the paths of pcuoe.

Oil how many precious memories will l'ugor about this home! Aud in tho hearts of those who have been its inmates. Memories that will livo and souud iu their hearts like strains of sweetest music to the very close of life.

But Mrs. Morgan did not beloug to this family uloue. Thero are other mourners here to-day. Tho churoh loses one of its most useful aud devoted members. She loved her church, and uothiug within her reach that she could do was loft uudono.

Her home was preeminently the home of God's miuisters aud no doubt the suecessivo pastors of tho church hero would join me to-day iu saying, oue of the bsst friends my family and myself ever had duriug my pastoral life lio3 In that casket before us. I would say more—much more might be said but— **Slic noiMl? uot. tlie praise of tho love-written reeonl. The mime and *he epitaph jrruvenon stone/"

The life that she lived the things that she lived for lot tlieiu be horstorv and she will always be remembered by those that she wrought for, and the work she hath done.
