At the‘afteiumn session lfi‘. W gave
his attention to the cause of Harlin Burke.
There was nothing suspicion in Burke‘s
movements subsequent to lay 4. Not a
word of evidence had been introduced at
the trial to show that Burke was in the
Carlson cottage on the night of May 4. The
method of Identification of Burke in Winni-
peg, hesald, was unfair, and showed that
the state had no hopes of hi, really being
theman that hired Martenaen tobaul the
furniture, or even that it was Burke who
rented the cottage.
O'Bullivan’s reported declaration that
Cronin was a British spy and ought to be
killed might have been made, the attorney
continued. What of it? Would not every
true lrish patriot who believed a man to be
a spy make such a remarkl He might not
commit murder, but he would very
freely give utterance to such a declaration,
and, therefore, there was nothing significant
in the declaration, if O'Sullivan made it.
Mr. Forrest closed his speech with an appeal
to the jury to acquit his clients because
nothing had been proved against them be-
yond a reasonable doubt.
Court adjourned until Friday,when Luther
Dalila Mills will begin.
A Doctor's Criminal Plot.
PHILADZLPKIA, Dec. 12.—-‘l‘he coroner has
investigated the supposed death of Annie
McIntosh, at the residence of Mrs. Behm,
1,93% Uber street. The coroner’s attention
was called to the case by an anonymous
note. He could find no official record of
the death nor of the disposition of the body.
It was thought that some crime was being
concealed. Mrs Behm said that the girl
had been treated by Dr. Tait at her house.
Dr. Tait denied all knowledge of the matter.
Dr. F. M. Murray, however. called on the
coroner and said he had treated a young
woman at the house named, and had given
a certificate of death from peritonitia Her
brother had taken charge of the body.
Mrs. Bohm was placed under arrest, and
shothenconfeused that there had been no
such death as was announced. At the hear‘
ing Dr. Murray gave a circumstantial ac-
count of the girl‘s illness and death, but
when confronted with hire. Behm’s retrac-
tion he broke down and confessed that he
had concocted the story in order to defraud
the Fraternal Gnardians’ Benevolent society
out of 8815, the insurance on the life of Mrs
Annie McIntosh, of Media, and that. the girl
was at present alive in this city. The doctor
and Mrs. Behm were allowed to depart, but
they will probably be prosecuted.
lie Was Mr. Davis' Body Servant.
Ramon. N. C..Dec. 12.-—Jamss B. Jones,
a well known colored man of this city, who
was for a long time body servant of Jeffer-
son Davie, sent the following telegram to
Mayor Shakespeare, New Orleans: “As the
old body servant of the isle Hon. Jefferson
Davis, my great desire was to be the driver
of the remains of my old master to their last
resting place. Returning too late to join
the white delegation from this city, I am do-
prived of the opportunity of showing my
lasting affection for my best Blend.“ Jones

mouth-t it '
«unearth antithesis“ some
and tbuttherc isnoneelss (chap. viii. so,
61); but now through these many wives of his
his own heart is gone.
5. “Solomon went after Aehtoretll, ‘ ‘ '
and after Milcom.” These were idols of the
Zldenlans and Ammonitss, whose worship
was accompanied with abominable rites; but
us Solomon had taken wives from these as-
tions. and they had probably gone with him
to the temple to see the worship of his God,
they new persuade him to set upulso their
idols which they had been accustomed to
worship; and as he had sinned in taking
these wives, he now sins yet more to gratify
than. The same thing is seen today when a
Christian is married to one not a Christian.
6. “And Solomon did evil in the sight of
the Lord." He did evil in the sight of men,
he did evil against himself, but the greatness
of his sin was the fact that it was against
God. He was the Lord’s representative, and
he, of all men, should have been faithful to
Jehovah who had so blessed him above all
men.
7, 8. “Then did Solomon build an high
place for Chemosh, * ’ ‘ and likewise
did be for all his strange wives." Thus add-
ing sin to sin, the more evil escalates we
have, the more sin We are likely to commit,
and if we put ourselves under the least obli~
gatien to an ungodly person we cannot well
deny them a favor when they ask it, even
though we know it is wrong to grant it.
0. “The Lord was angry with Solomon.“
80 we read that Jehovah was angry with
liosesand Aaron and isracl (Dent. iv. 2l;ix, 8,
20; II Ki. xvii, 18); and that while He is slow
toanger and great in mercy, yet there is a
day coming when it will be ill for those who
are not hid in the Rock of Ages. (Xahum i,
3', Zep. ii, 2, 3).
“His heart was turned from the lord God
of Israehwhich had appeared unto him twice."
The Lord had appeared to film at Gibson,
when He said “Ask what I shall give thee,"
and in answer to his prayer at the
dedication of the temple (chaps. iii, 5; ix, 2),
and these high favors, in addition to all the
other blessings, should have kept Solomon
faithful to his God; but alas for the deeper-
ate wickedness of the human heart, and how
marvelous the long suffering and patience of
Jehovah! Contrast the conduct of those
who turned from idols to serve the Living
and True God and to wait for His $011 from
Heaven (1 These. t, l). 10).
10. “He kept nottlmt which the Lord com-
manded." It. was 0 case of direct and willful
disobedience. He was forbidden to multiply
harem or wives or silver and gold, and yet
then were the very things he did; he was
commanded to keep by him a copy of the law
and read therein all the days of his life, but
this hcevidéntlydidnot do, and consequently,
not bdng well anchored, he drifted on the
rocks. (Dent. xvii, 14—3).) What a contrast
to hisfather, who said: “0, how love i Thy
law; it is my meditation all the day" (Ps.
men; and. "By the word of Thy lips l
have kept me from the paths of the de
stroyer." (Ps. xvii, 4.) The estimate which
,God putsupon obedience is seen in I Sum. xv,
23; Ian. i, 10: Jer. vii, 22, 23, and in the words
of Jesus, “He that hath my commandments
and keepeth them, be it is that loveth me."
(John xiv, 21.) There is no use in talking of
our love to God unless we delight to keep
His commandments, and do so because He
bassaved us by His grace apart from any
merit or works of ours.
“i will surely rend the kingdom from thee
and give it to thy servant." The record of
this will be found more at length in our next
luau; but notice here how disobedience robs
us of our blmng‘s. Listening to the temple:
and becoming by him that to eat
of the tree of knowledge would prove an ad-
vantage, Adam and Eve, in disobedience to
God, sought a present gratification and thus
brought sin and misery upon the whole
human race. Esau, for the dpresent gratifica-
