A Light That Failed.
Topeka, Kan., Dec. 26.?Ten days
igo an old man, dressed in rags, ap?
peared at the city prison in Coffey
ville, Kan., and asked the jailer to
allow him to sleep in one of the empty
cells overnight. He declined to tell
his name, but said he had arrived on
i freight train from Texas. His
request was granted. Next morning
be was found to be ill, and though
properly taken care of, died four days
later.
A few hours before death he called
the jailer to his side and told him his
name was Edward Dunbar and that he
was the author of that beautiful hymn,
"There's a Light in the Window for
Thee, Brother." He was buried in
the Coffeyville cemetery.
This man had a history as interest?
ing as it is romantic. His name be?
came a byword in the places where he
was known, and from a prison cell he
went forth a tramp and a vagabond
upon the face of the earth. In 1867
Dunbar was arrested in Leavenworth,
while engaged in holding a series of
revival meetings, and taken to Min?
neapolis, where he was tried for
bigamy, convicted and -sent to the
penitentiary for three years and eight
months.
When Dunbar was ? small boy he
lived in New Bedford, Mass., and
worked in a factory. His mother
lived at the foot of the street on which
the factory was located, and, as the
lad's work kept him away till after
dark, she always placed a light in the
window to guide his' footsteps home?
ward. One day he took a notion to
go to sea, and off he went on a three
years' cruise.
During his absence his mother fell
ill and went at death's door. She
talked incessantly about her boy, and
every night she asked those around
her to place a light in the window in
anticipation of his return. When
she realized that her end had come
she said: "Tell Edward that I will
set a light in the window of Heaven
for him." These were her last words.
The lad had grown to manhood ere
he^ returned home, and his mother's
dying message so affected him-that he
reformed and became a preacher. In
the course of his reformation he wrote
the fiong, "There's a Light in the
Window for Thee, Brother." The
song became widely known.
The Rev. Edward Dunbar married a
young woman in New Bedford during
his work in a great revival in 1858,
and several children were the result
of this union. The young divine soon
made a reputation as a brilliant pulpit
orator, and the public was therefore
greatly surprised .when one bright
Sunday morning he skipped the coun?
try, leaving his wife and children
behind. He came to Kansas, and
after snatching brands from the burn
ing in different parts of. the State he
went to Minneapolis, and began to
show the people the error of their
ways. A great reyival followed, and
hundreds were converted.
Miss Eunice Belle Lewis, a. hand?
some young heiress of Indianapolis,
was one of the converts. She fell in
love with the evangelist and married
him against the wishes of her friends.
Shortly after the we4ding Dunbar
returned to Kansas to fill an engage?
ment at Leavenworth. While he was
away the friends of the bride, who had
mistrusted the evangelist all along,
laid their suspicions before W. D.
Webb, now Judge of the 2d judicial
district of Kansas, and Judge Austin
Young, who were law pprtners in
Minneapolis, and they took the case.
The result was that they soon found
evidence sufficient to warrant an
arrest, and Dunbar's ministerial career
was brought to .a sudden close.
Judjje vWebb and Judge Young
assisted in the prosecution of Dunbar.
After Dunbar's incarceration Judge
Young secured a divorce for Mrs.
Dunbar and married her himself.
They now live happily together in
Minneapolis. Judge Lochren, the
present commissioner of pensions,
defended Dunbar in the case.
Dunbar's first wife died in Taunton,
Mass., abcut two years ago.?'Boston
Herald.
Tfbj Crime Increases.
Judge Isaac Parker, of the United
States district court for Western Ar?
kansas, lately made some startling
statements, and then followed them
with -suggestive comments.
In charging the grand jury at the
opening of his court at Fort Smith,
he said that whereas the ascertained
number of murders in this country in
1889 was less than 3,600, and in 1890
but 4,300, and it was nearly 6,000 in
1891.
It is startling to learn that there
were twenty*vfle more supposed mur?
derers lynched in 1889 than were exe?
cuted according to law, and the excess
of lynched over executed murderers
Was sixty-seven in 1890; but assuming
that only one person was concerned in
each murder, hardly one in twenty of
those guilty of the crime in these two
years suffered the penalty of death,
either at the hands of the law or by
the violence of a mob.
Judge Parker gives several reasons
for the shocking state of affairs thus
revealed : The indifference and incom?
petence of courts ; the general preva?
lence of perjury; the use of corrupt
means?money, and social and other
influences?to shield criminals ; the
sickly sentimentality that turns an
assassin into a hero as soon as he is in
danger of his life ; and finally, the in?
difference of the people at large.
This comment is substantially true.
The remedy must come first at the
fountain head. The people arc the
source of all power. If they so will
the evil can be stopped.
Society must protect itself, but the
first thine, for society to do is to re?
cognize the danger it is in because it
docs not protect itself.
? "So he praised my singing, did
he?" "Yes, he said it was heavenly."
"Did he really say that ?" "Well, not
exactly, but he probably meant that.
He said it was unearthly."
Thp GrotFIrpROf History.
The four great fires of history were
those of the city of Rome in the tenth
year of the Emperor Nero, or about 65
years A. D., London in 1666, Moscow
in 1812, Chicago in 1871. Of these
the latter was by far the greatest and
most disastrous, though statistical de?
tails are not obtainable so closely for
either of the three preceding it. Those
for Rome are especially meagre, the
historian Tacitus neglected to tell
hot;' many houses and insulx were de?
stroyed, and he notes but briefly the
famous fanes and monuments which"
were swept away. The first fire lasted
for six days, and j ust as the wretched
people were beginning to take breath
and visit the ruins of their former
homes, a second fire broke out which
lasted three days. In that respect
the conflagration partially paralelled
our own, as the fire which began here
Sunday night was preceded by an ex?
tensive one Saturday evening. Of the
fourteen regions of Rome three were
entirely destroyed, seven others were
injured more or less severely, and only
four escaped unhurt. Whether or
not it may be true that the Emperor
played on his fiddle while the city was
burning, there is no reason to doubt
that the people were so exasperated
with him that he judged it necessary
to divert their suspicions that he had
deliberately set the city on fire in or?
der to rebuild it to his own glory. So
he "saved himself at last by sacrific?
ing the little band of alien secretaries,
already the objects of their hatred and
vilings, to whom the vulgar gave the
name of Christians."
The great fire of London lasted four
days and nights, reducing to ashes
five-sixths of the whole city within
the walls, the population of which was
estimated to be about 200,000. It
had been much reduced by the great
plague of 1665. The area burned
over was 435 acres, being about one
third of that laid waste by the fire in
Rome. London was rebuilt within
the next four years on a much improv?
ed plan. The destruction in Moscow
seems to have been complete except
the Kremlin, the city having been set
on fire by its own inhabitants on the
night of Sep?mber 14, after which
they abandoned it to the French
troops, who looted^ it and probably
took little thought of the 11,000 woun?
ded men that were left behind when
the Russian army evacuated the place.
A few years earlier Moscow had con?
tained about 9,000 houses, of which
one.sixth were stone, 314 manufacto?
ries and worskshops, and nearly as
many churohes.
The Chicago fire devastated an area
of 2,100 acres, or nearly three and a
third square miles, destroyed 17,450
buildings, and rendered homeless
98,500 persons. The number of kill?
ed were estimated at about 200. The
value of the property burned up was
ascertained to have been about $192,
000,000 the day preceding the fire,
and the deduction from this for sal?
vage and variously estimated at from
$4,000,000 to $10,000,000. The loss
was not far from one-third of the
value of the property in the city, and
only $44,000,000 was recovered in in?
surance, much of the property having
been insured ? in home companies the
assets of which were reduced to zero
by the calamity. In a year after the
fire a large part of the burned district
had been rebuilt, and the volume of
business was much larger than before
the event, which drew out practical
expressions of sympathy in the shape
of material from all over the rest of
the United States and from many pla?
ces in Europe. The owhojrl amount
contributed in money, provisions and
clothing was estimated at not less
than $7,000,000, and the magnitude of
this contribution alone attests that
the great fire in Chicago was regarded
generally as the most calamitous that
had ever been experienced.?Chicago

A Snnrilal.
Two hundred years ago. in the first
quadrangle at All-Souls' College, Ox?
ford, a grand sundial was reared to
the top story, the largest and noblest
dial in all England or in the entire
kingdom. It was placed in the face
of the quadrangle, and over the long
pointer were written in large letters of
gold these words, "Pereunt et Impu
tantur" which refer to the hours,
meaning literally, "They perish, and
are set down to our account," or we
may amplify it into something which
implies more: "They arc wasted, and
are added to our debt."
Wonderfully significant are these
words, and wonderfully have they in?
fluenced men since the day they were
inscribed above this dial. The late
Cardinal Newman is said never to
have looked at them without a feeling
of awe and reverence. Keeblc and
Pusey acknowledged the power which
these memorable words exercised over
their lives, for it is a law of our na?
ture that what impresses us in youth
is most influential in shaping our
lives. These men passed many years
at Oxford, and who can tell how much
these three Latin words had to do in
making their lives pure and noble ?
The missionary Patterson, who was
slain by the savages on the island of
Nukapu while he was at his post of
duty, confessed that the frequent
sight of these words assisted largely
in confirming him in the resolution to
devote his life to the conversion of
men and the glory of God. Well
were these three words written in let?
ters of gold !
A word spoken in season, how good
is it! And we are told that a word
fitly spoken is like apples of gold in
baskets of silver.
It is told that an English merchant,
who went to Oxford on a visit to his
son, was so impressed by the dial and
its mighty words that whenever after?
ward he was tempted to relax energy
in fulfiling the duties of his calling,
or to spend a day in useless idleness,
he would recall and repeat the words,
Percunt et Imputantur, and thus spur
his laggard will to its daily task.
In doing good actions we often
build better than we know, and ac?
complish more of good than we had
hoped or even dreamed, and the men
of two hundred years ago who set in
the quadrangle of a college a sundial
inscribed with three significant words,
that students might be reminded of
the value and flight of time, did a
work which has reached far beyond
their own age, and even their own
country.?Harper's Young People.
Had Their Laugh.
A traveling vender of patent medi?
cines once put up for the' night at a
wayside inn, where some workmen were
indulging in a friendly "glass" before
parting company for the night. On
learning his profession, the workmen
agreed among themselves to have a
little fun at the expense of the quack.
So one of them, who thought himself
the wit of the company, got into con?
versation with him, and eventually
asked him what he professed to be
able to cure.
' 'Experience, sir, has taught me to
cure any disease," answered the
quack, looking his questioner full in
the face.
"Then I should be much obliged to
you if you would cure mc of my com?
plaint," went on the wit.
"What is the matter with you ?"
asked the quack.
"Well, first of all; I am an awful
liar; secondly, I have lost my appe?
tite ; and thirdly I have lost my
memory." '
"Oh, well, I can make you all right
if you will promise faithfully to take
twelve of - my famous 'premier pills,'
which are quite harmless."
"I promise."
Twelve large pills were accordingly
handed to the wit, who took them
rather reluctantly.
"Well, how did you like them?"
said the quack, as the last one disap?
peared.
"Why, there is nothing in them but
tallow," replied the wit.
"Iam pleased to learn that they are
efficious."
"What do you mean, sir ?"
"You say my pills are nothing but
tallow, That is quite correct. I
made them from a candle. So you are
no longer a prevaricator. Then, again
your appetite must have been suddenly
improved to enable you to enjoy such
a dainty meal; and as to your memory,
I warrant you'll never forget taking
those pills as long as you live."
The workmen had their laugh, but
not at the quack's expense.
Figs and Thistles.
The man who agrees with us cToesn't
come around near often enough.
No matter where a good man lives,
his house is always built on a rock.
No man can succeed in being happy
without asking God to tell him how.
Sin got a foothold in this world
by making itself look harmless and lit?
tle.
A prudent man doesn't tell every?
thing he knows every time he opens
his mouth.
If the Lord could trust his people
with money, every Christian would
own a bank.
No field of wheat ever ripens that

Seek happiness for yourself and you
will lose it, but seek it for others and
you will find it.
? The woman was up before the
court for whipping her husband, aud
as it was not the first time, the judge
was disposed to be severe. "Pris?
oner," he f-aid sternly, "you have been
here before on the same charge, but
knowing the kind of a man your hus?
band is I have been lenient. Now
what have you to say ? Why do you
persist in your conduct?" "Well,
your honor," she said, decisively,
"I've got it to do. I have four girls
growin' up and like as not they'll
marry good fer nothin' husbands like
I did, and, your honor, I'm settin'
them a good example, that's all," and
the judge let the case go by.
South Carolina Mormons. I
Greenwood, Jan. 8.?Elder J. H.
Sehvanaveldt, of the Mormon church,
passed through here to-day on his way
;o his home at Gentle Valley, Idaho.
He stated that he had just received
lis "release" from . Prophet Wil?
led Woodruff, after laboring in South
Carolina for the past two years.
The Elder says that he is well
pleased with his work in South Caro?
lina, and that the cause of the "faith?
ful" is progressing better than most
people suppose. It will be a surprise
to many to learn that Morman ciders
have been at work in this State for
the past ten years, and, according to
Elder Sehvanaveldt, there are fourteen
sldcrs now within our borders and
ministering to the wants of some three
hundred converts. Most of the con?
verts arc in Horry, Clarendon and
Sumter counties, with a few in Berke
ly, Charleston, Spartanburg and
Glrcenville counties. He says the
majority of the recruits to the Latter
Day Saints came from the Baptist
xnd Methodist churches, and of the
three hundred converts in South Car
alina only three arc negroes. He re?
pudiated the idea that Mormonism
meant polygamy and asserted vehe?
mently that that it was neither preach?
ed, practiced nor allowed by the Mor?
mon church. He says that never
more than two per centum of the Mor?
mons practiced polygamy and that in
1888 the Mormon church called upon
all its members who had more than
one wife to choose one, and while it
required them to continue to support
all former wives, yet recognized con
jugial relations only with one, and
since then has not allowed a member
to marry more than one.
He spoke in the highest terms of
Prophet Wilfred Woodruff, and claim?
ed for him all the powers of the proph?
ets of old. He stated that Prophet
Woodruff had power to send him or
any other elder to any part of the
world to labor for the church, and an
elder always remained in his field un?
til released by the prophet.
Elder Sehvanaveldt says that an
immense amount of misrepresentation
has been heaped upon them here, as
elsewhere, but that as soon as this
can be overcome the Latter Day
Saints will make great inroads in South
Carolina.
Progress In Surgery.
The tremendous strides being made
by modern surgery, its manifold tri?
umphs in the face of the great obsta?
cles, arc wonderful, well-nigh miracu?
lous. The science of tracheotomy, by
means of which a person is enabled to
breathe artificially through a rubber or
silver tube inserted in an aperature in
the trachea, is already old and com?
monly practised. Arms that can be
made to move at will, hands that clasp
almost naturally, legs that walk so
easily as to deceive the most acute ob?
server?all these no longer startle the
world. More recently we have false
ears, by the aid of which the deaf may
hear. The very latest discovery, or
invention, in the field of surgery, is a
false jaw that masticates as easily and
naturally as the real article. There
is one thing that will ever defy surgi?
cal science, however, and that is a false
eye that sees?Troy Press.
? Judge Charles E. Vandenburgh,
of St. Paul, closed a term of thirty
four years of continuous service on
the bench December 31. He was
elected in 1859, when but 30 years of
age, and has never failed of re-election.
When first chosen he had to travel
over 2,000 miles during the year.
? Baptism by immersion was per?
formed in a peculiar manner a few
days ago in Buffalo Township, Wash?
ington County, Pa. Thomas Toland
was too ill to leave his room, and was
desirous of baptism. A large box was
made and filled with water, and into
this Mr. Toland, suspended in a sheet,
was lowered, The rite was performed
by the Rev. M. Justice, a clergyman
of the Christian Church.
? A dog's bone has again been used in

? The latest addition to the skilled
promotion of confusion in battle is a fit
subject for the burlesquer. It is tho
invention of a German by tbe name of
Reihms, and it is called a "fog creator."
It is a shell which its inventor claims
will plunge the troops into complete
darkness, and the smoko will make them
cough and sneeze at a terrible rate. Fancy
an army all plunired into the sneezing
humor. If there is one thing that occu?
pies all a man's attention it is sneezing.
Not even a genius could aim a gnn when

? A Richmond man who has returned
from the South tells some interesting
things about the Louisiana lottery's new
establishment. He said the lottery com
-panyhas bought an island on the coast
of Honduras, about 800 miles from Port
Tampa, Fla. A. fine line of steamers will
be put on between Port Tampa and this
island, which, besides being the home of
the lottery, is to be made a superb win
tor resort, with opera houses, gardens, a
great open air orchestra, and in short, a
second Monte Carlo. At Port Tampa
the lottery company has already put up
an immense structure, six stories high,
where they will do their printing and
other work incident to handling their
business in the United States. He says,
further, that it is supposed they intond to
reach tho public through tho express
companies. Their preparations are cer?
tainly on a tremendous scale. They have
groat wharf facilities and an immense
capital. The railroad authorities are
looking forward to a steady flow of win
tor visitors to the Honduras resort by
the line of steamers that is to be put on
between Port Tampa and Honduras.

The redaction of the price of THI3 FORUM caused a demand for continuous
editions of the December and January numbers?proof that the best periodical
literature with a serious purpose Is well-nigh as popular as literature and pictures
designed for mere entertainment. This reduction in the price of THE FORUM
has made it as cheap as the illustrated magazines, and almost as popular.

large groups of business men as to the exact condition and outlook.

has never sought popularity by lapse from dignity nor by forgetfulness of its
