MURDERED HIS BABES.

LA Dying Father aud Deserted HusbaaJ Commits an Awial Crime.

Driven desperate by disease and the fcruel treatment of his wife, James Smith, |a letter-carrier attached to station D, New •York, Friday,tried to kill himself and two {pretty babies in the Lawrence flats. He (almost made a complete success of his work. One child is dead and the other dying. A button on his trousers was the only thing that prevented Smith from taking his own life. A woman is at the bottom of it, as is usually the case.

Two weeks ago Smith's wife left him for jthe second time, without any warning or icause. He is suffering with consumption, icontracted during the blizzard The docItortoidhim he could not live later than Jnext spring. With his wife gone and his lown death in view, Smith decidcd that •his children would be better off dead than alive. His life was vriapped up in the 'two little ones, and life would be empty [without them. He decidcd to take his [own life at the same tine, and thus end rail the misery at once. He left the chiljdren with a Mrs. Bauer, a dressmaker in the house, asking her to care for them until he returned. They are girls, one two lyears and the other eleven months old. IHe went out and bought an old fashioned 38-caliber revolver and a box of cartridges.

Returning he took the children back into his own rooms. There he placed the :blue-eyed babe in its little chair and took the elder one on his knee. There was one shot and the infant screamed. Blood began to trickle from its left breast, just above the heart. A second shot and the larger girl, Elizabeth, cried out, "Oh, papa," putting her hand to her stomach, where the bullet had entered. Smith next placed the glistening barrel against his own stomach and pulled the trigger. He .felt the shock of the bullet and thought lie would die in a few moments. The bullet had s*.ruck a button on his trousers, glanced off and inilicted a flesh wound only. Neighbors heard the shooting and ran for the poliee. They found Smith in his rear room frantically kissing the oldest child and calling it by endearing names. It was dead. Blood trickled down its breast. Mary, the baby, was feebly cry ing.

A WITNESS SEIZED.

The Cronin Case Developing Acrira ony Among tlie Lawyers.

The attorneys in the Cronin case were at war Friday. It all grew out of the testimony of Witness Budenbinder, who swore that Cronin was not driven to his death behind Dinan's horse. At the morning session Mrs. Paulina Haertel, who testified to hearing the struggle in the Carlson cottage where Cronin was killed, testified that her husband put a new lock on her floor before May 4 to keep her out. August Salesman, who couldn't remember where he had worked during the past two years, testified that he helped Haertel put on the lock after May 8. John Stift testified that Coughlin and Witness Garretty were enemies. Then court adjourned to 3 o'clock totake the deposition of Distiller Lynch, who is ill, and who was expected to be the last witness for the defense.

During the recess Witness Budenbinavr was seized by a bailiff on a forthwith subpena and taken to the State's attorney's office. Qualey, Lawyer Forrest's clerk, tried to rescue Budenbinder, but failed. At the opening of court in the afternoon the jury was excluded and the row began. As Budenheimer had been forcibly seized after being served with a subpena, Lawyer Forrest thought all the parties concerned were guilty of contempt. The judgo thought the act an outrage on the witness, but not contempt, and after a three hour's wrangle, court adjourned.

INTO A VAT OF BOILING WATER.

Horrible Eliding of a Fight Between Two Kmployes of a ^Butchering Establish. ment.

Henry Brunier, aged seventeen, a butcher employed at John Weitzel's butchering establishment at Baltimore, Md., died, Friday, from a severe scalding in a vat of boiling water. John Fisher, another employe, is held by the police to answer the charge of throwing Brunier into the vat. The story of the assault,as told by Brunier, Who spoke with difficulty, is this: Fisher and Brume? Were both employed at Weitzel's. Friday they got into a quarrel over a trifling matter, and later began to fight. They clinched and threw each other around t,he slaughter house to the amusement of the other employes for some time. Fisher, who was older and stronger than Brunier, had the advantage all the time, but the latter stuck to him and'the two fought like bull dogs. Fisher managed to get the lad near a vat of boiling water, which is used to take bristles off of bogs, and pushed him in. The boy's body, from his ,neck to hi? knees, was scalded in a most 'horrible manner. The lad's cries brought the other workmen to tho vat and he was soon pulled out and a doctor summoned. IHe suffered intense agony until he died. The men had been friends up to the time pith* fifht. ,..

TALMAGE AT ATHENS.

Progress of ths Celebrated Brooklyn

INDIANA Divine on His Pilgrimage.

He Discoursss to a Group of Friends and Countrymen in Ancient Athena on "Tho Glorious Eevelation to Be"—An Eloquent

Ecrmon. Having reached Athens on his pilgrimage to tho Holy Land, Rev. T. Do itt Talmage last Sunday preached to a group of friends, basing his discourse on ttia following two passages from the Pauline epistles: I. Corinthians, ii, "Eye hath not seen, nor ear hoard," and I. Corinthians, xiu, 2: "For now we sec through a glass, darkly." The sermon was as follows:

Both these sentences wore written by tho most illustrious merely hum-in being tho worll ever saw, one who walked these streets, and preached from yonder pile of roi-ks, Mars Hills. Though more classic associations are connecied with this city than with any other city under the sun, because here Socrates, and Plato, and Aristotle, and Dcmosthones, and Pericles, and Xenophon, and Praxiteles wrote or chiseled, or taught or thundered or suncr, yet in mv mind all those men and their teachings were elipsed by Paul and the Gospel he preached in this city and in your near by city of Corinth. Yesterday, standing on the old fortress of Corinth, the Acro-Corinthus, out from the ruins at its base arose in my imagination the old city, just as Paul saw it. 1 have been told that for si 1 en .lor the world beholds no such wonder to-da.v as that ancient Corinth standing on an isthmus washed by two seas, the one sea bringing the commerce of Europe, tae other sea bringing the commerce of Asia. From her wharves, in the construction of which whole kingdoms had boon absorbed, var galleys with three bmks of oars pashout and confounded the navy yards of ail the worid. Huge-handed machinery, such as modern invention cannot equal, lifted ships from the sea on one side and transported them on trucks across the isthmus and set them down in the sea on the other side. The revenue officers of th city went down through the olive groves th.it lined the beach to collect a tariff from all nations. The mirth of all peo le sported in her Isthmian games, and the beauty of all lands sat in her theatres, walked her port.cos and threw itself on the altar of her stupendous dissip.f ons. Co.umu and statue an 1 te.nple l).:vvild a-ed the tnholJer. There were white m.it'bic fountains into w.iich, from apertures at the sides, there rushed water* everywhere known for health giving qualities. Around these bas.ns, tivisted into wreaths of stone, there were all the beauties of sculpture arfd architecture, wit.le standing,

and the baby taken to Bellevue Hospital. The father's wound was dressed and he •was locked up. The other child lies in a baby carriage now, awaiting the coroner. When asked why he committed the terrible deed, Smith told the police that he thought they would all be far better off if they were dead. "What could I do?" he asked. "My wife left me and I could not take care of my children. Let me die here," he pleaded. "Life has no charms for me." Smith was married three years ago, and was a sober, reliable man. Kis wife was twenty-three years old, pretty and fond of male companions. The two children were remarkably pretty.

if to guard the costly display,

was a statue of Hercules of burnished Corinthian brass- Vases of terra eotta adorned the cemeteries of the de.id—vases so eost.y that Julius Ctcsai* was not satisfied until ho had captured them for Home. Armed ofticciais, the corintharii, paced up and down to see that no statue was defaced, no pe iestal over thrown, no bas-relief touched From the ed^e of the city the hill heid its magnificent burdens of columns and towers and .temples (1.000 slavet waiting at one shrine), and a citadel so tlioroaghly impregnable that Gibraltir is a lie.-.p of sand compared with it. Amid all that strength and magnificence Corinth stood and defied' the world. Oh! it was not to rustics whb had never seen anything grand that Paul uttered one of my texts. They, had heard the best music that had come from the best instruments in all the ^orld they had heard songs floating from morning porticos and melting in evening groves they had passed their whole lives among pictures and sculpture and architecture and Corinthian brass, which had been molded and shaped until there was no chariot wheel in which it had not sped, and no tower in which it had not guttered, and no gateway that it liiid not adorned. Ah, it was a bold thing for Paul to st nd there amid all that and say: "All this is nothing. These sounds that come from the temple of Neptune are not music compared with the harmonies of which I speak. These waters rushinsr in the basin of Pyrene are not pure. These statues of Bacchus and Mercury are not exquisite. Your citadel of Acro-Corinthus is not strong compared with that which I offer to tho poorest slave that puts down his burden at that brazen gate. You Corinthians think this is a splendid city you think you have heard all sweet sounds and seen all beautiful sights but I tell you eye hath not seen nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." Indeed, both my texts, tlie one spoken by Paul and the one written by Paul, show us that we have ver^ imperfect eyesight, and that our day of vision is yet to come: For now we see through a glass darkly, but then face to face. So Paul .kcs the responsibility of saying that the Bible is an indistinct mirror, and that its mission shall be finally suspended. I think there may bo one Bibie in heaven fastened to the throne. Just as now, in a museum, we have a lamp exhumed from Hcrculaneum or Nineveh, and we look at it with prreat interest and say: "How poor a light it must have given, compared with our modern lamps." bio 1 think that this Bible, which was a lamp to our feet in this world, may lie near the throne of God, exciting oar interest to oil eternity by the contrast between its comparatively feeble light and the illumination of heaven. The Bible, now, is the scaffolding to the rising temple, but when tho building is done there will be no use for the scaffolding. The id a I shall develop to-day is, that i:. this world our knowledge is comparatively dim and unsatisfactory, but nevertheless is introductory to grander and more complete vision. This, is eminently true in regard to our view of God. hear so much about God that we conclude that we understand him. l.e is represented as having the tenderness of a father, the firmness of a judge, the pomp of a king and the love of a mother. Wo hear about him, talk about him, write about him. We lisp his name in infancy, and it trembles on the tongue of the dying octog irian. We think that we know very much about him. Take the attribute of mercy. Do we understand it Tho B'ble blossoms all over with that word —Mercy. It speaks again and again of tho tender morcios of God of the sure mercies of th: groat mercies of the mercy that endufgth forever of,the multitudes of his mercies. And yet I know that the views wo have of this great being are most indelinite, one sided and incomplete. When, at death, the gates shall fly open, and we shall look directly upon him, how new and surprising! We see upon canvas a picture of the morn in?. We study the cloud in the sky, the dew upon the grass, and the husbandman on the way to the field. Beautiful picture of the morn ingt But we rise at daybreak, and go upon a hill to see for ourselves that which was represented to us. While we look, the mountains are transfigured. The burnished gates of heaven swing open and shut, to let pass a host of fiery splendors. The clouds are.all abloom, a'ud hang pend-. ant from arbors of alabaster and amethyst. The waters make pathway of inl id pearl for the light to walk upon and there is-

morning among the mountains. Now you go home, and how tame your picture of the morning seems in contrast! Greater than that shall be the contrast between this Scriptural view of God and that which wo shall have when standing face to face. This is a picture of the morning that will be the morning itself.

A*ain: My texts are true of the Saviours excellency. By image, and sweet rhythm of expression, and starulin? antitheses,

Christ is set forth—his love, his compassion, his work, his life, his death, his resurrection. We are challenged to measure it, to compute it, to weigh it. In the hour of our broken cnthrallment, we mount up into hiirh experience of his love, and shout until the countenance glows, and the blood bounds, and the whole nature is exhilarated, "1 have found him!" And yet it is through a glass, darkly. We sea not half of that compassionate face. We feel not half the warmth of that loving heart. wait lor death to let us rush into his outspread arms. Then we shall be face to face. Not shadow then, but substance. Not hope then, but the fulfilling of all preligurement. That will be a magnificent unfolding. The rushing out in view of all hidden excellency: the coming again of a long absent Jesus to meet us—not in rags and in penury and death, but amidst alight and pomp and outbursting ]oy such as none but a glorified intelligence could experience. Oh! to gaze full upon the brow that was lacerated, upon the sale that was pierced, upon tho feet that wero nailed: to stand close up in the presence

of.

him who prayed for us on

the mountain, and thought of us by the sea. and agonized tor us in the garden, and died for us in horrible crucifixion, to feel of him, to embrace lum, to take his hand, to kiss his feet, to run our fingers along the scars of ancient suffering, to say: "This is my Jesus! He gave himself for me. I shall never leave his presence. I shall forever behold his glory. I shall eternally hear his voice. Lord Jesus, now I see tlies! I behold where the blood started, where the tears coursed, where the face was distorted. I have waited for this hour. I shall never turn my back on thee. No more looking through imperfect glasses. No more studying thee in the darkness. But as long as this throne stands, and this everlasting river flows, aud those garlands bloom, and these arches of v.ctory remain to greet home heaven's conquerors, so long I shall see thee, Jesus of my choice, Jesus of my song, .Jesus of my triumph—forever and forever—face to face!"

The idea of my texts

just as true when

applied to God's providence. Who has not come to some pass iu life thoroughly inexplicable 1 Yon say: "What does this meau? what is God going to do with mo now? He tells met hat all things work together for go.jd. This does not look like it." You continue to study tlie dispensation, and after awhile guess about what God means. "He means to teach me this. I think lie means to teach me that. Perhaps it is to humble my pride. Perhaps it is to ike me feel more dependent. Perhaps to teach me the uncertainty of life." But, after all, it is only a guess—a looking through the glass, darkly. The Bible assures us there shall be a satisfactory unfolding, "ivhat do thou knowest not now, but thou shalt know hereafter." You will know why God took to himself that only child. Next door there was a household of seven children. hy not take one from that group instead of your only one? V. hy single out the dwelling in which there was only one heart beating responsive to yours Why did God eive you a child at all, if he meant to take it away! Vvhyfill the cup of your gladness brimming, if be meant to dash it down Why allow all the wind around that every fiber of your own life seemed to bo interlocked with the child's life, with strong hand to tear you apart, until you fall bleeding and crushed, your dwelling desolate, your hopes blasted, your heart broken? Do you suppose that God will explain that? Yea. He will make it plainer than any mathematical problem— as plain as that two and two make four. In the light of the throne you will see that it was right—all right. "Just and true are all thy ways, thou king of saints." Here is a man who cannot get on in tho world. He always seems to buy at the wrong time and sell at the worst disadvantage. He trie3 this enterprize, and fails that business, and is disappointed. The man next door to him has a lucrative trade, but he lacks customers. A new prospect opens. His income is increased. But that year his family are sick and the profit* are expended iu trying to cure the ailments. He gets a discouraged look. Becomes faithless as to success. Begins to expect disasters. Others wait for something to turn up he waits for it to turn down. Others, with only half as much education and character, get on twice as well. He sometimes guesses as to what it all means. Ho says: "Perhaps riches would spoil me. Perhaps poverty is necessary to keep me humble. Perhaps I might, if things were otherwise, be tempted into dissipation." But there is no complete solution of the my stery. He sees through a glass darkly, and .ist wait for a higher unfolding. ill there be any explanation? Yes God will take that man in the light of the throne and say: "Child immortal, hear the explanation! You remember the failing of that great enterprise. This is the explanation." Aud you will answer: "It is all right!"

I see, every day, profound mysteries of Providence. There is no question wo ask oftencr than Why? There are hundreds of graves th it need to be explained. Hospitals for the blind and lame, asylums for the idiotij and insane, almshouses for tne dest.tute and a worid of pain and misfortune that demand more than human solution. Ah! God will clear it all up. In the light that pours from tho throne no dark mystery can live. Things now utterly inscrutable will be illumined as plainly as though the answer were written on the jasper wall or sounded in tho temple untliem. Bartimeus will thank God that he was blind and Lazarus that he was covered with sores and Joseph that he was cast into the pit: and Daniel that he denned with lions and Paul that he was humpbacked aud David that he was driven from Jerusalem and the sewing woman that she could get only a few pence for making a garment aud that invalid that for twenty years ho could not lift his head from tho pillow and that widow that she had such hard work to earn bread for her children. You know that in a song different voi'-es carry different parts. The sweet and overwhelming part of tho hallelujah of heaven will uot be carried by those who rode in high plates, and gave sumptuous entertainments but pauper children will sing it, beggars will sing it, redeemed hod carriers will sing it, those who were once the offscouring of the earth will sing it.

Str:ui ,'C Life in Alaska.

"The furniture in the native huts is very sparse, says a traveler writing from the Yukon river in Alaska—a few birch-bark baskets, some spoons of ivory, wooden dishes, arrows, speurs, maybe a gun, straw mats, and furs. Every thing1 smells worse than a soap factory. Tho people are literally covered with vermin. They are miserably poor. Tliey get very little for the game and lish they have to sell. BoUi are so plentiful that we have tired of ducks, geese, and salmon. As 1 am writing there are some magnificent mountains in sight. They remind me of the first ran go of the Rockies in Colorado. In the woods there are lots wild roses, and the hillsides are as green as auy lawn in spring. It is difficult to believe th this is an arctic land when you observe the luxuriant forests, the green grass, the flowers, and mark how warm the days ai—. But dig down ten inches anywhere and vou will find the ground frozen hard. !At Mu'.ato they have dug twenty-five feet to get water, and the ground was frozen all the way down. In spite of this the weather is so warm that every man is going around in his shirt sleeves. Mosquitoes are plentiful and ferocious."
