Daily Wabash Express, Terre Haute, Vigo County, 11 November 1883 — Page 2

A few months ago a policeman blundered and ordered two visiting merchants and a Terre Haute traveling man from the streets. A few nights ago a policeman blundered and arrested a well known citizen of Marshall, (an account of which will be found in our Marshall correspondence this morning) and yesterday a policeman more than blundered and insulted two young ladies.

When the remains of the woman •were found oyer the river the coroner held an inquest and returned a verdict •which left the case shrouded in mystery. It was about to drop out of Bight when the Express protested and kept on protesting that such a serious matter should not be allowed to receive but passing notice. Interest was awakened, and the Express by publishing all the "clews" of the detectives and exploding them maintained an interest in the affair until the identity of the •woman was established. The Express •will continue its efforts until the murderers are brought to justice. Great is the power of the press.

The Vigo Fair association has confessedly made a bad showing. Our fairs have been failures and the association has lost money. There are Beveral causes for this state of affairs, one of which is the apathy of our citizens. "We are all inclined to lay the blame to the management, but this is not wholly just, because if the people gave a proper support the management would be encouraged to greater efforts. The Express believes the fair can be made a success. Perhaps there needs to be new ideas in the character of the exhibition, something nearer the c-sposition than the agricultural and live stock show. At all events everyone should take a hand and help the enterprise along.

Terre Haute offers manufacturing Industries unequalled inducements. Fuel Is cheaper than in any city in the west, so cheap that flour is manufactured at less cost for power than prevails anywhere else In the country. There are nine railroads leading into the city, making freight rates cheaper than for any city of its size In the west.

The gain in the circulation of the Kx press is keeping up the average of the past several months. The number of papers now delivered by carriers in the city is, in proportion to the popu lation, larger than that of nine out of ten city newspapers. The price, fifteen cents a week, is within the reach of all. The fact that it publishes more live matter every day in the week than any other paper, and then gives the subscribers big, very big Sunday pa per, accounts for its rapid increase in circulation, until it is far ahead of any other paper.

If he thought he was performing his duty, that he was driving from the streets bad characters, he would have apologized when his mistake was made apparent to him. Instead, in the words of President Brown, he "slnuk away," and it would have been better for him had he kept on going until Terre Haute was rid of his presence. His immediate dismissal from the force is imperatively demanded.

PASTOR AND PEOPLE.

"Saul Rejected" the Subfect of To-Day's Sunday School Lesson.

Stormed-Tossed.

Out in the night and darkness,. Out in the storm and rain. With never a star to guide him

To haven and home again He tosses afar, my sailor, On the breastof the stormy sea, With the pitch-black heaven abovehim,

And the thunder's minstrelsy. The phosphorent waters parting Leaves a trail of flory foam The good ship flies from the tempest,

But farther flies from home. Out in the wild night's blackness, Athwart the shadowy heights, Is a blood-red glow on the breakers—

The gleam of wreckers' lights!

The rush and roar of the tempest, The roar and rush of the sea Pray, pray to the white Christ, sailor,

For haven, for home, for me! —[Belle, in Boston Transcript.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

Lesson for Nov. 11—Subject: The Sin of Saul—I. Sam., xv., 13—16.

Saul had been reigning ten or fifteen years and had reached the height of Ins fortune. He had just concluded a successful campaign against the Amalekites. This heathen people, for their treacherous assault upon Israel in the wilderness, had been doomed by the Lord to utter destruction. Saul was directed "to destroy them utterly and spare no one." It is the story of his disobedience and its punishment which is the subjectof this lesson.

The Amalekites were aBedouin tribe, and the first to attack Israel in the wildernes3. There were peculiar reasons for inflicting upon them a sentence of extermination. But Saul was not so good as his promise to obey all the commands of the Lord. He had at first been very modest and very desirous of winning the approval of Samuel and the Lord by obedience to all commands. But in his short reign he had become puffed up with pride, and had lost that modesty of his early life. He had become like other kings, and instead of keeping in retirement was now eager for pomp and show. He waged war successfully against the Amalekites,as commanded, but when he had beaten them, instead of carrying out the instructions to "spare none," he made it more a war of plunder.

He spared the life of the king Agog, not because of any feeling of humanity, for he did not hesitate to murder women and children, but he refused to take the life of the king simply that he might, like other victors of that time, have a king to grace his triumphal march. He also saved the best of the sheep and cattle. It was a war of plunder instead of one of righteous indignation, and,when Saul came home proud of his success, the old prophet Samuel rebuked him for his disobedience. Then the king showed that he lacked moral courage if he did not physical courage. He knew that he had disobeyed, but he had not the manliness to accept the responsibility for it. He tried first to make the olJ prophet believe that he had acted with right intentions at least, and made excuse that he had preserved the fatted cattle and sheep to offer as sacrifice to the Lord. When Samuel repulsed such an excuse he sought to put the blame upon the people. The stern prophet was not to be hoodwinked by any such deceit, not to be appeased by any offering of spoil. He reminded Saul that "to obey was better than sacrifice." Saul was still capable of no better repentance than that he regretted his own humiliation in sight of all the people and he had no better forgiveness to ask for than that Samuel would worship with him before the Lord, that he in id it be honored before the elders of Alio (r ople and before Israel.

Saul's 'character was not founded upon virtue goodness, but upon a desire for approbation. He had not so much regard for the right as he had for the approbation of the people. So long as lie could lead the people to think he was right and a great king he was satisfied. He did not wish to disobey the Lord nor the prophet, but his only care was to secure their approbation. Right in the abstract was not with him. There are many men like him—men who hold fast_ by the opinions of others and care little for what is in reality just and right and true. This desire for approbation may restrain them from overt acts of wickedness, but it will never make them truly noble. It may make a gentleman, but not a man. It may give respectability, but not character. The man who does what is approved rather than what is right is equally ready to do wrong for the sake of approval. He is a coward, and always ready to throw the responsibility of his wrong doing upon others. He is often sorry, but never repents he is sometimes humiliated, but never humble.

Two examples of such men furnish the most frightful wrecks in American political history—Aaron Burr and Benedict Arnold. They were men who sought the approval of their fellows, and they were as willing to gain that by playing the traitor as by acting the patriot. They, like Saul, were repudiated and utterly wrecked. ApprObativeness will not save. Don depend upon it. Care less for what people think than what conscience tells you is right.

Luther's Psalm.

[We give below Carlyle's translation of Luther's celebrated hymn of faith. From the prefatory remarks of the translator, we take the following: "Among Luthur's spiritual songs, the one entitled, 'Eine feste Burg ist unser Gott,' is universally regarded as the best and, indeed, still retains its place and devotional use in the psalmodies of Protestant Germany. Luther wrote this song in a time of blackest threatenings, which, however, could in nowise become a time of despair. In those tones, rugged, broken as they are, we do not recognize the accent of that summoned man (summoned not by Charles the Fifth, but by God Almighty also) who answered his friend's warning not to enter Worms in this wise: 'Were there as many devils in Worms as there are roof-tiles, I would on of him who, alone in that assemblage, before all Emperors, an principalities, and powers, spoke forth these final and forever memorable words: 'It is neither safe nor prudent to do aught against conscience. Here stand I, I cannot otherwise. God assist me. Amen!'"] A safe stronghold our God is still, A trustv shield and weapon He'll help us clear from all the ill That hatn ns now o'ertaken. The ancient Prince of Hell. Hath risen with purpose fell Strong mail of Craft and Power Ho wcareth in this hour, Oh Earth is not his fellow. With force of arms we nothing can, Full soon were we down-ridden But for us fights the proper Man, Whom God nimself liath bidden. Ask ye, who is this same? Christ Jesus is his name,

The Lord Zebaoth's Son, He and no other one Shall conquer in the battle.

And were this world all Devils o'er And watching to devour us. We lay it not to heart so sore, Not ttiey can overpower us. And let the Prince of 111 Look grim as e'er he will, He harms us not a whit. For why? His doom Is *riU A word shall quickly slay him. God's Word, for all their craft and force, One moment will not linger, But spite of Hell, shall have

Its

course,

Tis written by his linger. And though they take our life, Goods, honor, children, wife, Yet is their profit small These things shall vanish all. The City of God remaineth.

The Luther Celebration.

Last night the four hundredth anniversary of Martin Luther was celebrated at the Lutheran church on south Fourth street. The exercises

/^it^f*V?f THE TBRRE HAUTE jpXHtESS. SU?TDAaf

were conducted chiefly by the children of the Sunday school, and consisted of singing by the choir, after which a short address was made by the pastor. The children were questioned about the life of Luther and the great work that he accomplished. Their answers displayed a thorough knowledge of the man, "which was gained by careful preparation. A beautiful selection was then rendered by the choir. The text for the sermon this evening, which will be in commemoration of the reformer, will be taken from the 13th chapter of Hebrews, 7th verse. The music of the evening will be given by the Concordia society.

Gazette: Father Joseph Frewin, of Albany, N. Y., the new assistant pastor of St. Joseph's church, arrived last evening and was introduced to those of the congregation who were present at the fair.

Father Maurice, the new pastor of the German church, arrived this afternoon. He would have been here last night had not he and Father Frewin missed each other at Indianapolis.

HUNTING A SAMARITAN.

A Rich Old English Bachelor Stops a Day or Two in Search of One In Terre Haute, But the Samaritan Was

Not Found.

A week or ten days ago a man about fifty years old, wearing the unmistakable countenance of an Englishman, arrived in the city. He was here several days and during that time made himself acquainted with a number of persons. Among them was Mr. Parry, of the Pre3bvterian church. The stranger gave his name as L. S. Williams, of Devonshire, England, and but for the last remark he made to Mr. Parry he might have passed for all that he would have people believe him to be. His story was an interesting one and is worth repeating to the public, which should first be made aware that Mr. Williams as he called himself is a man of good intelligence, was able to assume very well the character of a high born, highly educated and thoroughly cultivated English gentleman if he was not^ in fact such a person.

He said he was the son of Bishop Williams, of Devonshire, one of the most prominent prelates of the Church of England. "Yes," said he, "I am peculiarly situated in life. I am an old bachelor without a relative and possessed of a fortune. I have thought best, on the advice of friends, to travel as a source of diversion. And that I might be freer in my movements, leas liable to importuning beggars and unattractive to robbers, I am clothed in the manner of a man of very limited resources."

This coming from him in person, did not sound so transparent as it reads in cold type he impressed you of the truth of what he said. Talking with Mr. Parry one day he showed him a clipping from a Welsh newspaper which was to the effect that Mr. Williams, son of the bishop, a man of mammoth fortune, was then in that neighborhood seeking rest and recreation. "I am now on my way to California," said he one day as he sat in Mr. Parry's cosy study. "My godfather, who went to California many years ago, has died and left me his fortune, and I must go and see about it," and he looked into the fire with the air of a man tired of money and high i*oeition in life. A day or two later he was again with Mr Parry, who had became just a little suspicious. "I had a strange adventure at Columbus, Ohio, on my way here," he remarked. "I was robbed of $1,800, and you see I have no watch." Mr. Parry did see that he had no watch, and also noticed that while the day was raw and cold, his visitor wore a white vest and light coat. "But the watch was not taken. The truth is I pawned it after I was robbed, but while 1 have fallen among thieves, I have uot yet found a good Samaritan.'' Mr. Pirry sat farther bacfc in his chair.

Bishop Williams' Bon said no more abont Samaritans. He left the house a moment later. He left the city the same day without saying good bye to any of his acquaintances.

Arkansaw Traveller: "Where were you engaged last?" asked a lady of the new colored cook. "Yer oughten'ter ax me dat, lady." "I just want to know, as it may tend to rave yon character." '*Walf, lady, de .las' time I was en gaged was down in de bottoms. I was engaged ter Bob Phillips, de triflinest ya'ler man I eber seed. W'y, lady, dat man stole my year-rings and runned away. How many times wus yerself eugaged, lady."

Arkansaw Traveller: Lord Coleridge said that John Bright built himself up on Milton. If Mr. Bright were an American and an Arkansas man, he would have built himself up on Bacon.

The New Orleans Picayune says that the Southern turkey cares nothing for Arthur's thanksgiving proclamation, but about Christmas time it will begin to roost high.

From a few spots which appeared at that time, it gradually spread so aa to coyer his entire tody. I assure you he was terribly afflicted, and an objeetof pity, when he began using your medicine. Now, there are few men of his age who enjoy as good health as he has. I could easily name fifty persons who would testify to the facts in his case.

Six months ago 1 was completely eovered with a terrible humor and scrofulous sores. The humor caused an incessant and intolerable itching, and the skin cracked so as to cause the blood to flow in many plaees whenever I moved. My sufferings were great, and my life a burden. I commenced the use of the SARSAPARILLA in April last, and have used it regularly since that time. My condition began to improve at onoe. The sore* have all healed, and I feel perfectly well in every respect—being now able to do a good day's work, although 73 years of age. Many inquire what has wrought such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you, AYER'S SARSAPARILLA. Glover, Vt, Oct 21,1882. Yours gratefully,
