N'o Hunilay Meat Sclliiitr ,
An onllnnhco was adopted several years
ago prohibiting butchers keeping their
tnnruets open on Sunday bet-ween October I
and May 1. The law was enacted In accord-
aura with the dcuimd of the bate hers them
selves , who desired to biexkuptho practice
that hnd been in vogue for years of keeping
open their nnrkets on Sunday forenoons.
In their petition to the council when the
orillnaiico was passed they argued that It was
not a public necessity , and onlv operated
as un unnecessary banUltlp upon
nil butchers , v\no were obliged to
keep their maikets open Iccauso iv
few desired to do so. The ordi
nance -was enforced for a while , but It gradu
ally become to be ignored , although many of
the butchers observed it and kept their mar
kets closed on Sundays during the winter
months , There wcro no arrests for its viola
tion last winter and many of the butchers ap
pear to have forgotten it altogether. Tills
season It scums that an agreement was mido
to observe It and enforce It stilctly. Yester
day was the llrst Sunday lu October and It
contained so-no Riiof for several of the
butchers. They cither forgot the existence
of the ordinance entirely or else wilfully violated
lated It , niul they straightway got into
trouble A number of the butchers who
had agreed to close vvoro appointed a
committee to see that all compiled with It.
They found three or four pltues open while
the I'tiurou bolls sere chiming , and ait hoar
later the pioprlotors vm-o ni res ted. Three
nrrcsts were inado bofoio dinner. The vic
tims voroJ , W. Leake , Scott \VllUiusiuid

pounds of steak left over from Ida Saturday's
business. IIo does not keep his grocery
oHin | on Sundays , but when a couple of gen
tlemen called and wanted about that amount
o [ steak for their Sabbath dinners ho oblig
ingly opened Ids shop und let thorn base all
thnt remained to prevent them nolng hungry
nml the steun from spoiling. Tlioy did not
want the steak ns badly as they did the evi

larly patioling up nnntl down that street ;
and trotting along close at his heels is
the spectral figure of a small dog. Up
and down , up nnd down , with a hlood-
curdling legul.uity and a frco/ing still
ness the two phantoms p.ico thu lonely
and deserted street. At cither end of the
beat the pair turn with methodic ; preci
sion and pace the beat over tignin. Stead
ily the spirit natrol is kcut uu from 8
until 1.
STOPS AT THi : COIIXKK.
At stated intor\als , each half square ,
the spectral policeman pauses , stoops
over and then his , arm raibcs with up
lifted club and descends upon the cdgo
of the curbstone ; but like the phantom
footsteps of the policeman himself , no
hounds issue. Each half square Is this
motion of tapping gone through , but
onlj an opjios > bi\e silence follows in
stead of the welcome sound of tlio lo
cust against the curb. The car is
strained inain ( o he.ir u bound from
either of the ghostly pair. All is si
lence dead , chilling , unnatural , though
such is the tension upon the nerves by
the strange sight that one seems to hear
the sound of their footsteps , the tap of
the club , oven the sound of their icspir-
.ation.
llach hour , at ono or other of certain
corners , the lonely topper anil the
ghost of the dog stops , while the former
giwos univy in the darkness as if expect
ing to meet some one. They are "bchc-
dulo points" where , in days gone by , the
sergeant met the patrolman and re-
cchcd the report fpr tlio hour. But no
sergeant now appears , and after a few
moments of hesitating expectancy , tlio
noiselcSs llguie.s of the pair turji and re
sume their \veary patrol , stepping oft
the squares with a. measured and mili
tary tread. Thus the long hours of the
night p.iss , and 1 o'clock draws near.
There is a church tower not far distant ,
and the bell m it strikes the hour with
a , distinctness that falls harshly on the
car. When tlio bell's sonorous
sound has ceased the pair of
spooks reach the southwest corner of
Park ( uenuo and Ninth street , and
leaning against n huge elm the police
man shl\ era and diaws his collar moro
closely about his neck while the little
dog cowoes at his heels. Time thorn by
the watch ! The figures of the spectral
tr.iln appear to fade away. Little by
little they go , andthonjflnalljlmorgo into
an indistict maze , and just as the minute -
ute hand points to theeo minutes past 1
o'clock in the tall tower , they disappear
altogether and are not seen again until 8
o'clock on the following evening when
the nightly \itrll of the two phantoms
begins anew , as it has done since Janu
ary last , and will continue to do the
policemen say , until the cowardly assas
sin of brave Olllcer Moigan is brought
to justice.
A TATKD 1IKAT.
For many a long month prior to that
tragic night of January 1 , that fated beat
was under the ban of the police as n
"Jonah. " Every man who had over
been assigned to duty upon it met with a
signal mibfoitunc , thus was It that it be
came known as ' 'dead man's beat. "
Denny Thomas was the first victim of
the strange fatalities that clustered
nbout. the neighborhood. It was about
the time that the police department of
Kansas City was ro-organi/cd on the
metropolitan plan Unit Denny was put
on duty theio in the usual course of
events. Three nights afterward ho became -
came ill , and a week later a sorrowful
procession of his mates followed him to a
grave in Elmwood cemetery.
Bravo John O'Neil succeeded poor
Thomas on the beat. One , night , fol
lowing a period of forty-eight hours of
continued wakcfulness , duo to an elect
ion , John fell asleep on duty and was
caught snoring by the sergeant. Ho
was summarily dismissed from thr foico
Jack De\innoy took the boat , and ono
dark night , while making his loundB ,
stumbled into a coal hole that some man's
stupidity had left open. An hour later
the sergeant , after a diligent search ,
came upon the. llQath trap , into which
Ho nearly foil himself. Flashing his
lantern into tho'dcpths the sergeant saw
the form of Do\lriiiev } stretched on the
lieap of coal bolows Some tlmo elapsed
before the owner of the collar could bo
awakened and } h'o ambulance called ,
and whoa poor Do\innoy was finally
reached ho was told and btlfl in death ,
Ills neck having { ieon broUon by the fall.
THU CHAIN Of rATAUTIKS.
For the first ttfu'o the singular chain
of fatalities attending the Easth Ninth
street patrol duty 'ivas notjccd. Through
six successive vJlungos in loss than a
jenr did disaster relontle-jhlv pursue
every policemanyt-ht to that fateful spot.
Ono man who had no\or boon known to
drink before was discharged for drunk
enness , although ho pleaded in self-do-
fotibO that the trying associations of the
beat wore enough to drive ono to drink.
Another man lost his position through
incomtmtoncy. while still another mot
poor Uonny Thomas' fate sickness and
swiftly following death.
Simon Harris was the seventh man to
take the beut , and two weeks after go
ing on duty there ho was nhot and
wounded ono night in an effort to arrest
neouplo of police disturbers. Though
lie survived nls wounds ho wns former
incapacitated for nctho duty , and hois
now a station house keeper.
After that thoio worn no'moro assign
ments to the beat. The chief humanely
lefased to pass vlmt i-ccmed equivalent to
u death suntunco on his men and tlio bent
thereafter wont by lot John , Knowles got
the first black bean nnd ho at once 10-
from thu force. Pat Connors
followed , ami for a time the dreadful
hoodoo of tlie bent seemed to hmo rim
its course , or rather to have trniififorrcil
it elf to little "Tug , " nskjo tprrlorof
whom detail will bo given. ljat Con
nors covered the beat for six months
wlthojt disaster , anil tlio men fondly
hoped that East Ninth street's mis
fortunes wore Vlegond of the past.
THI : fcpr.cTiti ; uoo.
But now to the dog Tug. Ho suddenly
appeared at the central Ptatlon ono day
soon after John Knowles resigned.
Whore ho came from no one knew , but
as ho wis aory clover dog and speedily
developed some amusing tricks , ho be
came for a lime a favorite. The men ,
especially those on night duly , liked to
have Tug accompany them on their
lonely vigils. 15ul his popularity was
short lived. lie soon began to be fookcd
upon ds a hoodoo. George Whitney , a
colored policeman to whom Tug took a
fancy , was soon removed "for causes. "
Teddy Lyon was Tug s next master , and
Teddy lost his place not long after , for
falllivg to paw the annual examination.
Tug then transferred Ills allegiance to
Sergeant Jones and followed him dny
after day on his tholess rounds of duty.
Ono day Jones took a drop took much
and the result was ho was reduced to
the ranks. The day that Jones' chevron *
\\oro removed , Tug forsook him and at
tached ills unwelcome self to .llmniy
Fit/gibbons , who was proverbialv ! un
luckybut too big-hearted to i eject 1'ug's
overtures of frlundshin.
"Jimmy's name is Dennis,1' remarked
some of his brother olllcors when thov
saw how faithfully the liltlo dog fol
lowed him about. Their jesting proph
ecy was only too true. Ono morning
Jimmy sprang into the Missouri river olt
u sand-boat to save a dtowning boy. Tlio
moment tlio olllcor dived Tug so't up u
dismal howling. Both man and boy wcro
drowned , and their bodies wore not re
covered for weeks. After that Tug was
kicked and cull'cil oil by every man ho
tiled to follow , as the embodiment of ill-
luck , and the poor creature in sheer
despair ono night foi&ook the police
headquartois and went to station No. ! ! ;
but oven there his fate followed him , for
a few days afterward an over-turned
lamp set lire to the house nnd it wns do-
stioyed. Tug escaped and lied back to
No. 1 , where for weeks ho lenmincd un
noticed and disconsolate , fed only at In
tervals by Finnic Morgan , the olllcor in
charge of the station. This was the sit
uation at the time that Morgan suc
ceeded Connors on "Dead man > i beat , "
whoso terrors wore now somewhat
dimmed by the long period of immunity
Connors had cnjoved.
COXNORS' KATU
It was just before the holidays Unit
Prank went on duty , patrollng the beat
at night. Ho was legulaiiy followed by
Tug , and when his brother olllcers saw
Morgan , thus weighed down , as It were ,
by tlio double handicap of two Jonahs ,
they shook their heads oneo moro and
again predicted ill. But Morgan gave
no heed to the eioaking.
The night of January 1 cmno. It was
a cold night , -when all the elements
seemed at war , while a biting , froe/.ing
cold movailed , and under the Hoico gale
the flying particles of sleet and snow
cut a man as if with a knife. Limbs
were blown from trees and came crash
ing down upon the iKivemcnt , while
the air was filled with the rustling
of the dried leaves that wore blown
hither and thither. Morgan buttoned
his great coat closely about him and
drovy his head well down Into thomulller ;
but in bpito of his warm clothes the keen
wind penetiated to his skin and chilled
his very blood. With bent head , Tug
close at his heels , tlio olllcor pursued his
way , hour after hour , rapping the pavo-
uient at intervals , the sound ot the
club's contact being carried away by the
winds. Several times Morgan miulo his
regular report to the sergeant. Ills next
report was to be made at 1 o'clock at the
corner of Park avenue and Ninth street.
On that corner stands a huge elm tree ,
nnd Morgan leaned against it , seeking
pi election from the storm. Tug was
mobably standing at Frank's heels. As
lioforo stated , it was a wild night. The
Hying dead leaves woiorushing through
the air , and the creaking of the swaying
trees and the soughing of the gale
through the telephone wiics overhead ,
all around the rattle of shutters these
combined to create a perfect wintry pan
demonium.
THI : ASSASSIN'S IJLOW.
In all the noise neither Mo rerun nor
Tug noticed the assassin -\vlio was
stealthily creeping up from out the black
shadows behind. Closer and closer crept
the midnight foe , until ho stood directly
behind Morgan , and still the doir could
not have observed him or ho would have
given a warning growl. The assassin's
arm was uplifted and in the hand was
hold n long knife that descended witli
HW'ift nnd rnqistlRss foii'n into Mni > irin'a
back , and slightly turning to the left
iiiorccd the heait. So powerful was the
blow that the sharp stool cut through
the heavy garments and into the
flesh and bone , severing the
spinal cord , so that death must have
been instantaneous. The murdoicd olll-
cer foil suddenly a limp and inert maw ,
and in falling ho crushed and killed Tug ,
for when found a few moments later the
dog lav under his master , his white ,
woolly hair dyed crimson with Morgan's
lifo blood. Both wore dead and rapidly
stilToning in the intense cold. Thus
wore they found by the sergeant. At
the undertaker's it wBs'shnvvn that Mor
gan's vrntuh had stopped just tlnee min
utes past 1 o'clock , marking exactly the
moment of hib assassination.
It was never learned who struck the
cowardly blow. Morgan was not known
to have liQd enemies , and the supposw
tion was that ho was taken for another
policeman , Jim Ryan , whom ho resem
bled , and who had incurred the deadly
hatred of a gang of young toughs by
shooting ono of their number.
For several days a keen and active
search was prosecuted for the inurdoier ,
but as no success attended it the otTovts
wore finally abandoned. It was on the
night following this decision that the
ghosts of the murdoied policeman and
the dog Tug woio first seen , and there
they may still bo scon , every iiiirht ,
pacing backward and forward through
the lonely hours , until 1 o'clock , when
they fade and disappear nt the fatal
corner.

It is of un emigrant that I vvUh to tulk toou

nlKht , hud an ancestor whoso name , "Kuor , "
simply means "Tho Immigrant. " Ho It Is

Mils that ho had Just been speaking of Abra
ham wo will see Its hearing more clc.irly as
\\o KO nloii in our study of bis i tint-net or.
The llrst tiling thatstilkcs us In the life of
Abraham Is that lie chose to leave his homo
when ho was comparatively a young inim
nnd no to the new westein woild. In this ho
Is to boioinp.uvil to many of you who bear
mo tonlcht. Ills home had luen In Ur nf
the dilutees , the most sou them citj of the
Mesopotamia ! ! district , and in many roMxvls
the most important. The 1'erslmi gulf at
tint time extended 1110 miles farther inland
tlinn it docs now , and Ur was a seaport cltj ,
with all the nil vantages of such a posi
tion. It was the Liverpool of tint
carlv IIRO , nnd to Its wharves
United the tidiest fnlnlcs and largest
stoios of statilo good1 * thnt ancient
t'hiddei could boast of Modern teseaieh
1ms shown to the woild many liitcrosllni ; de
tails as to the life of the cltl/cns of Ur. They
dwelt in brick bouses , many of them richly
oumiuentedwlth nitlstlo designs. The ladles
hail abundant .stoics ot linen , the old men
sunned themselves In nim-cbiilrs. tlio young
men woio felt huts , the JOUIIK Indies prided
themselves on their einlnoldcrcd garments ,
nnd out on the lawtm there woiv sun dials
which lovo.ilcd the ti'noof dny Ur had all
the then modem improvements.
Moreover , It was a roj al city. King Uruldi
was on the tluone , and as he was a powerful
and libcr.il prince the work of public im-
piovement went merrily onward In tbo o
d.i.vs it was not neiessary to levy ta\cs when
n itiiifi wanted to lay sewers or pave streets
or build public buildings The lint thing
was to go to war and capture a lot of slaves ,
the nc\t to appoint task-masters ovci them ,
nnd tbon they win call ready for operations.
As Xiilni ) > lmune/7cr built the h.iiiKlnggnrdoiis
iiiUiibvlmi , ntid Scpl built tlio pyramids out
upon the sands , so did Uruldi creel many
palaces and temples by means of the grinding
toll , thoswc.it and heart's blood of tlio poor
captive * taken in war.
Ur was also a litcinry city. If it was the
Liverpool and the London of nnclvnl limes , it
was also the Violence. Tbero weiv public
libraries , nnu galleries of ait , and schools of
science. Astronomers g.i7ed at the still's ,
poets wrote epics i.iul h ) tints , orutorsextollcd
the exploits of the IdiiR nnd the liberality of
their pilrons , jewelers studied the taste of
their fair customers amiviougbt designs
which still astonish the woild , and nobles
feasted on fat things mid made themselves
drunk on palm wine The city was full of
'
life niul It was fust life , too. It' was Just the
place to strike the fancy of a joiing man. It
was Just such a city as that Into which the
joung prodigal plunged to waste his substance -
stance lit riotous living.
The wonderful thing is that Abraham
should over desire to leave tills brilliant , fas
cinating lifo. Ho seems to have been of a
thoughtful , devout disposition ; nnd there
aie indications that ho loved to loiiiinuno
with his God. Whether ho MIVV visions , or
ilieatnci ] dreams , or tieaiit voices , is of little
consequence , 1 piofcr not to iiii.iKhie super
natural things when they arc not clearly tic-
scribed in.puiptuio Kiiough tor us that ho
Icird the divine summons to leave the gay
lifo of the city , to go out from the tomfoits
of his f.itbei's bouse , to turn Ills hick upon
( ompanlons nnd fricmts , and betake
himself to the solitudes where
only God would bo his friend
niul noition. Ho obeyed at onto Hard as it
was todcsottn citv life , and you young men
know bow haul tha > would be. vv lien on echo
had tasted of Its lomfoiU and delights , ho
delayed not n moment. And ho went to sta.v .
Ho iliit not icscrvo the light to return when
the llrst spasms of home-sioUnoss came upon
him. And in addition to nil this I would
have \o\i notice that bis choice wns ; i volun
tary one. ( jed did not ioorc-0 him. Ho sim
ply called ami Abraham wrapped his mantle
about him , gathered together u little coin-
pauj logo with him ititd went out "not know-
in } ? whither. " He was the world's most
princely emigrant , ho was the woild's high
est example of a life of faith.
There have been man j' followers of Abraham
In his trusting walk with God , but none
whoso career is moio inspiring than Gcoigo
Mtillcr , the great German philosopher. A
poor man himself bo determined to take care
of God's poor. Ho builtorphanapes , asylums ,
refuges , hospitals , and ho never asked "a mini
or woman for a cent ot money ! It all came
