His Son Tried Bat Could Sot Give Ilim the
Train of Thought
TUE TOUSG JIEN HEAD THE SERMON
Hon. V. H. West, "the blind orator of
Ohio," who has electrified so many au
diences, was unable to deliver his address
at the Firct Presbyterian Church last even
ing. And the illness or lapse of memory
with which he was stricken is considered by
many to be the bepinninc of a
mental breakdown and opinion is rife that
Judge West has appeared for the last time
as a public speaker. It had been announced
that he would deliver the annual address
to the Alumni and craduating class of the
"Western Theological Seminary. Cone
seqnently the cnurch was crowded
even to the galleries with the stu
dents. Alumni and Faculty of the Semi
nary and representative people from all over
the city, the reputation of the gentleman
as an eloquent speaker and a deep thinker
being thoroughly established. His topic
was "The Duty of Patriotism to the Church
and Conversely the Reciprocal Duty ot the
Christian Citizen to the Republic"
HE LOST HIS THOUGHT.
William B. Negley, the well-known at
torney, as Chairman, introduced Judge
West, and as the venerable gray
haired man took his position
the audience greeted him with warm ap
plause. In a clear, full voice he thanked
them lor their welcome, and spoke ol his
pleasure. of being with them and visiting
again the scenes ol his childhood and yonth.
Then in the same manner be began his dis
course, but his deliTerv was cut short witn a
few sentences, the speaker being unable to
proceed. His son, who had accompanied
Judge West and who possessed the address
in manuscript, endeavored in vain to give
his father the train of thought and reason
ing which he wished to use, and severa in
effectual attempts were made by the speaker
to grasp that which had escaped him.
Finally Judge West declared it impossible
for him to attempt the delivery of his ad
dress, and his own disappointment was quite
as great as that of the audience.
Many iirominent divines went to the plat
form and offered their services and extended
their sympathy to the embarrassed orator, la
which "the entire audience united.. At last,
Eev. M. B. Kiddle, of the Western Theo
logical Seminary, went upon the platform
at the solicitation of those in charge and
announced himself ready to speak forjudge
West, who had been a student under his
grandlatber, but the venerable orator re
quested that his son read the manuscript of
the address which he had prepared.
PKOSI FATHER TO SOIf.
Accordingly, Mr. West, Jr., in an ex
cellent, clear, distinct style gave the audi
ence the benefit of his father's ideas on the
topic previously given. The substance of
which was that patriotism and religion are
dependent upon each other lor the main
tenance ot a civil government, which cannot
be dispensed with by any civilized com
munity. Anarchy is the alternative of civil
government and to prevent that
the good patriot who is not neces
sarily a Christian should recognize
that Christianity has its political power,
and that it exerts a berign influence npon
all degrees ot social, political and moral life
and should, therefore, be encouraged as a
morality - inculcating, liberty - inspiring
power. The chaotic condition ot the coun
try that would result from an abolishment
of Christianity, was briefly reviewed and the
necessity of its intention and expansion
forcibly presented, after which the duty of
the Christian to the Commonwealth was
treated and their allegiance to the human
law as well as the divine law. The Chris
tian was advised to join with the patriot in
de eating anything that would be detri
mental to the Government and in promoting
that which would be beneficial. Individual
opposing and conflicting should not be car
ried into Congress by patriots and Chris
tians, for if the better does not predominate
the worse will.
ECIK TO COMMONWEALTH.
If the Christians and patriots tail to hold
in abeyance the power that would make
poor laws and affect the welfare of the
country, ruin to the Commonwealth will be
the result. Such a course is absolutely
obligatory, the nation having assumed the
obligation when they gave to all the edu
cated and uneducated equal rights and
liberties. That the Christian should not be
partisan was illustrated by the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union's loss ot
strength by division over the party rock.
The conclusion ot the address was an ap
peal to the young graduates to be
come thoroughly conversant with civil
law as well as divine law and
give instruction accordingly. That popnlar
government could not be run in divine
grooves as yet was welt understood, but the
linking of Christianity and patriotism
was demanded by the times.
As the reading of the manuscript was
completed, Eev. W. J. Holland moved that
a vote ol thanks be extended to Judge West
ior jus amy written address, and to his son,
who had proven himseli a chip of the old
block by his reading, also that a copy be
asked lor publication. The motions were
carried unanimously. A further apology
and expression of regret by Judge West,
who had been during the evening oneof the
most attentive listeners, was followed by the
benediction, which closed the meeting.

East Liverpool, May 7. Ira Marlett
shot and instantly killed an aged Quaker
named Ashton, about six miles from New
Lisbon this morning, about 10 o'clock, be-
cause'he refused to indorse a note for $S00.
Ashton was working out on his farm when
'the deed was done Marlett then proceeded
to another neighbor's larm (leaving Ashton
dead in the field) named LonisBell, brother
of ex-Commissioner Bell, and asked him to
indorse the note. Bell refused and Marlett
opened fire on him, shooting him once
through the arm and in the face. Bell is
badly wounded, but will recover. Marlett
then went to his home, irhere he lived with
his mother, and about 40 farmers with shot
guns surrounded the house. He barred the
door and dared them to come and take him.
A messenger nas dispatched on a fleet
horse to New Lisbon for Sheriff Wyman,
who promptly responded. He called on
Marlett to surrender, but he would not, and
warned the Sheriff not to try to take him.
He repaired upstairs, barring the doors, and
waited and watched for a shot. Sheriff Wy
roan broke down the door, went upstairs and
broke open the room door. Marlett shot the
Sheriff at sight,but Sheriff Wyman took the
precaution to button his heavy chinchilla
overcoat and undercoat. The bullet struck
him in the abdomen, just where the over
coat was double, went through the under
coat, vest, pants and underelotbing, making
a flesh wound, painful, but not serious. The
Sheriff promptly grappled with his man and
captured the outlaw alive. He is now in jail
at New Lisbon.
Marlett does not seem to becrazy, but just
devilish, reticent and sullen in bis manner,
with no care for what he has done. He is 30
years of age and unmarried.

GROVES CLEVELAND THEIR CHOICE
As Arbitrator to Settle tlic Cincinnati South
ern Railroad Dispute
Cincinnati, May 7. There is a strong
probability ot an arbitration of the contest
between the trustees and the lessees of the
Cincinnati Southern Railroad. The lessees
recently made a demand for an arbitration
under the terms of the lease -to settle the
question of the amount of damages they
have sustained by reason of inadequate
terminal facilities at Cincinnati. They
placed their claim at over $00,000. They
named Grover Cleveland and Clarence Sew
ard as their choice (or arbitrators.
A temporary injunction was granted re
straining the trustees from arbitration, but
to-day Judge Kumler dissolved it, and the
arbitration may now follow.
