Satu rday night Lincoln was again the scene of another murder, and the victim, as that of Thursday lay stone dead ten minutes after tin fatal shot was fired. This time, however, both parties being colored, and the shooting was done over Ivison's billiard hall at the rear of the Lincoln hot Green Greavely, a colored man who ban been out of the penitentiary three months was the assassin. Th night before Greavely had insulted Mrs. Chas. Thomas, the victim's wife. Thomas found him in n Ha loon and ask him to explain why lit had treated his wife in such a man ner; Greavely answered with an oath and before Thomas could reach the door the fatal ;shot was fired. This makes two cold blooded murders for Lincoln within three days. Who will he the next. The stand pipe has been treated to a coat of paint which greatly im proves its appearance. HE KNEW. Hiram Waa Not at Alt Scared by the NuUra Down Stulra. It was 3 o'clock in the morning when Mrs. IIii;iiihothain idiiiok her husband. "lTj;!i," he resHitMed unconsciously, "I Iiruui! Jlinini!'' she exclaimed iu a whisper. "U-tinli," he observed. She Biive him another shake. "Hiram." idle whispered, "there's rob bers down Mhirs." "UkI!-" he ventured ngnin, this time with a rising inflect ion iiulieatin. that he was gradually absorbing tho idea that soiuetliin was wrong. She j.:avo him a tremendous shake. "LV'li," he almost shouted, siltitii; utraiglit tip, "what in thunder's the row, Maria?" She clapped her hand over his mouth. "Sli sli!" she whispered, "there's burglars down stairs." "Aw," ho growled, "wo ought to ho thankful they aro not up stairs, tlo to sleep!" nnd ho fell back to tho pillow. 'Hiram, I tell you," nho insisted, witli another shake, "there's burglars down stairs. 1 heard them. You go down and seo what they want." "Maria," ho protested, "I'll do noth ing of the sort. If they don't see what they want they can ask for it. Thais business." "Hat you shall go down, llinun, nnd see," she urged and pleaded at the same time. "I won't, I tell you, Maria. Because your father own n, dry goods store is no sign that I Ix-liove it is no trouble to show goods, nml I repeat, madam, if those burglars want anything they've got to wait on themselves. It's after business hours nnywity. You must think weruu an all night place. Go to sleep, 1 tell you." Mrs. Higinhothatn gave a sudden clutch at his arm. "Tlicre," she nearly screamed, "I hoar them coming up Btairs now." "Well, dear," he said soothingly, "you'd better jump up und put on a dress. It will never do in the world for you to receive strange gentlemen in your present attire. M "We'll be murdered in our beds," sho wailed. "Do yon really think you will," ho in quired with some interest. "I'm sure of it, Hiram," she sobbed. "Suppose you get ont and lie on the floor, Maria, and then you won't lie," ho suggested heartlessly. "I'm willing to take mine right here in bed, where it's warm." Mrs. II. began to cry. "What's the matter, Marin?" Mr. II. asked, as if ho had just that moment discovered her grief. 'You're a mean, horrid man, Hiram niginbothatn," she said in her natural voice, anil she began to get out of bed. . "Where are you going, Maria?" he in quired uneasily. "Down stairs," she answered heroical ly. "As between you upstairs nnd the burglars down stairs, I prefer tho bur glars," nnd down stairs she went, and t he black cat in tho preserve closet upset four jars of her finest (minces in its mad effort to escape. Shescreamed, but Hiram Iliginbothiun made no sign; ho knew ho had forgotten to put the cat in the cellar when he shin the honso up for tho night nnd reported to his wife that everything was all right. Detroit Freo Press. Home of the Son Kerpeut. The question of tho "great sea ser pent" has of lato come beforo us with an episcopal sanction; hut whatever may be tho explanation of tho various appear ances which have given a certain cur lency to a belief in tho existence of an unknown marine monster of sonio kind, that small sea serpents exist is most cer tain. They aro nil marine, and with the exception of one or two species never quit tho water. As might ho expected under such circumstances they bring forth their young alive, und theao can swim as soon us they aro born. Mr. Hotilenger tells us that their homo is essentially tho coasts (f the Indian ocean nnd tho tropical parts of tho west ern Pacific, from tho Persian gulf to New Guinea and North Australia. Uno species, however, ranges from west and south Africa lo tho western coast of tropical America nnd extends northward to Japan and tiouthward to New Zea land. Quarterly Review.

Ho took incontinently to tho bushes, where ho sjietit a very miserable two hours in hiding and caught a cold that kept him two days iu lHd. Meanwhile the torriblo owner, who was not tho owner nt all, had sought a similar refugo nt sight of tho original culprit, and not until his teeth chattered like a tyjiewriter did ho venture to loaw tho friendly but damp shelter and slink away from the scene. Ho was nn elder ly man, and bis share in tho day's sport resulted in a four days' rheumatic limp. Boston Transcript. Ancient SnrriflVp to tho Hru. Tho navigators of antiquity, to whoso imaginative ignorance tho ocean seemed peopled und beset with chimeras diro and mpernaturnl agencies of all sorts, used often to sacrifice human lives to the mysterious water gods. It is regard ed by tradition tleit Idoiueneus, king of Crete, vowed to sacrifice to Neptune the first living thing ho met after escaping from a storm, and this happening to bo his son, ho fulfilled his vow religiously. Medea nearly became a sacrifice during tho return voyage of tho Argonauts. Washington Star. Nu tCrllortlun tin III ( Intrnrter.
