I mind the night when Mary died— 'At's Maoy Staley. Open wide Swung perly gates that blessed night, 'Nnd we was shore, we seen the light 'At angels must a brung.

He'd jist walk back 'nd forth 'nd mourn 'Nd gaze at Mary. So, the thorn Went th'u' his soul. At last, sez I, She'sgone, but Maiy '11 never die. That brung him to bis knees beside Her lifeless form, 'nd starin' wide His tearless eyet looked up, He placed His big, rough hand on hern, then faced His God. "O, God! My God he'p me, He'p me, O, God!—He'p me to see Thy mercy, in this blow 'nd fill 0 God this achin' heart, that still, In all this darkness, Thy dear Son May he'p me say. Thy Will be Done." 'Twuz done as quick's tho't—His face Shined out 'ith light, and nary trace O' gloom was left, 'Nd soft but strong His hallylooyers, like a song Uv triumph flowed beside that bedChrist knelt with Staley by the dead.

THfc, CAKE WAL.lt.
Given Last Night at the Oxera House.
The c«ke walk given at the Opera House lasr night by the 2nd M. E. church, had a large crowd and was a grand success. The music was good and the buck dance by Milton Ladd, of Richmond, was flue.
The jury composed of Wood Walker, Will Hough, Eph Marsh, Elmer Swope, Harry Hume and Walter McCule, awarded rtie prizes in the different cake walks to Douglas Curry and wife, Will Knox and Mattie Greaves, Lee A Kiser and JViellie Hampton, fourth to Leroy Wadkias and Sarah Wadkins.
The first, third aud fourth prizes were cakes the second was a pair of vases. A large number of walkers were here from New Castle and Knightstown, but they could not come near the Greenfield walkers in winning prizes. Ephraim Marsh was foreman of the jury and each member had to possess the necessary qualifications for a good juryman, viz, not to be related to any of the parties who appeared before them in the contest and to know nothing that had, or would preju dee them against either the walkers or their walking. The above jurymen nil stood pat.
The Work at the Christian Church.
Thursday night at the prayer meeting, there were two immersions, which makes seventeen babtisms in the new church?' Since Rev. Gard came here, 2Tov. 1st, there have been 31 accessions to the church. There is no great boom, but a gradual increase in interest and attendance. Since the congregation moved into the new church it is well prepared in everyway to accommodate the general public in all the church services and also in the Sunday school. The public are cordially invited to all services.
