A GIIASTLY SIGHT.
Chicago, Nov. 10, 10 a. m.- Thi3
morning, Lingg, one of the con
demned anarchists attempted suicide
iu his cell. By some means he became
possessed of a fulminating cap. He
placed one end of the cap in his
mouth and touched a lighted candle
to the other end. A fearful explosion
instantly followed which most horri
bly mangled Lingg. His jaw was
blown away, the entire face fearfully
mangled and his Ekull fractured so
that the brains are oozing out. Lingg
was not killed outright. He is still
alive but at latest accounts it was
considered impossible for him to
survive. How he got the cap is un
known. It is, however supposed that
one of tho death watch is the traitor
and furnished Lingg with the deadly
missile. He left a letter bidding "his
friends farewell and concluding with
the sentence "Long live anarchy."
The public excitement here is intense.

THE 3IAX WITH THE MUSKET.
In it3 issue of October 20, the Chicago
Herald prints the portrait of Kev. H. S.
Taylor, who acted as pastor of tho Bap
tist church in Portland, Oregon, about
ten j-enrs ago, with a poem which has
given him wido celebrity. Mr. Taylor,
who is now only 33 years old, served as a
cnl.li'nr in tl VCXT trhflll lltlfc lf TSnra
old and his poem, "The Man with the
Musket," is in honor of those who, like
himself, served as private in the ranks.
Mr. Taylor now lives at Englewood, a
suburb of Chicago, where he is pastor of
tho Normal Park Baptist Church. Hero
is tho peem:
Thoy are building as Babel was built, to
tho sky,
With clash and confusion of speech ;
They are piling up monuments massive
and high
To lift a few names out of reach.
And tbo passionate green-laureled god of
the great,
In a whimsical riddle of stone,
Has chosen a few from the Field and the
State
To sit on the steps of his throne.
Bat I I will pass from this rage of renown,
This ant-hill, commotion and strife,
Pas3 by where the marbles and bronzes
look down
With their fast frozen gestures of life.
On, out to the nameless who lie 'neath
the gloom
Of the ritying cypress and pine;
Your man is the man of the sword and
tho plume,
Bat the man with tho musket is mine.
I know him! By all that is noble I knew
This commonplace uero j. name:
I've camped with him, marched with him,
fought with him, too,
In tho swirl of the fierce battlo-flame!
JQaughed with him, cried with him, taken
a part
Of his canteen and blanket, and known
That tho throb of this chivalrous prairie
boy's heart
Was an answering stroko of my own!
I knew him, I tell you! And also, I knew
When ho fell on tho battle-swept ridge,
That the poor battered body that lay thero
in blue
Was only a plank in the bridge
Over which some should pass to famo
That shall shine while the high stars
shall shine!
Your hero is known by an echoing name,
Bat tho man of tho musket is mine.
I knew him! All through him the good
and tho bad
Ban together and equally free;
But I jndge as I trust Christ has judged
the poor lad
For death made him noble to me!
In tho cyclono of war, in tho battle's
eclipse,
Lifo shook out its lingering sands,
And he died with tho names that ho loved
on his lips.
His musket still grasped in his hands!
Up close to the flag my soldier went down,
In the salient front of tho line:
You may take for your heroes tho men of
renown,
Bat tho man of tho masket is mine!
Thero is peaco iu thoMnj-ladened grace
ot tho uonm
That come when tho day's work is done;
And peace with tho nameless who, under
the flowers,
Lie asleep in tho slant of the sun.
Beat tho taps! Pat out lights! and silence
all sound;
There is rifle-pit strength in the grave!
They sleep well who sleep, bo they crowned
or uncrowned,
And Death will be kind to the brave.
Old comrades of mine, by tho fast waning
years
That move to mortality's goal,
By my heart full of lovo and my oyes full
of tears,
I hold you all fast in my soul!
And I march with the May and its blos
somy charms

And pray they may rest there, old com
'railes in arms,
Like a kis? of forgiveness from God!
