The Boston Post tells Of a wayfarer Of such
excessive politeness that he apologized to the
slippery sidewalk for falling upon 1t. Perhaps
It was patriotism instead Of politeness that In
spired the apology; and the luckless wight may
have merely designed to show his respect to the
flag on which he fell.

DEATH OF COLONEL PETER FORCE.
Our pen falters as we announce the death Of
Colonel Peter Force, who expired last evening
at 7 O'Clock, at his residence on Tenth street.
Colonel Forces name has been identified with
the past fifty years.
Colonel Force was born In New Jersey, No
vember 20, 700. and when but a boy he went to
Bloomindsfe, which was at that time one Of the
suburbs of New York city, where he engaged
himself As an apr rentice to the printing business
under William A. Davis He came to this city
in 1915, and subsequently had charge OF the pub
lie printing, and during the administration OF
the Presidency Of John Q. Adams he published
in this city the National Journal, which WAS the
organ of the Administration.
Over thirty years ago Mr.. Force was elected
mayor OF the city of Washington, which office
he filled with rare fidelity and ability.
Years ago he compiled the Documents ~ His
tory OF the United States, work OF rare historic
worth.
Col. Force, for the past nifty years, has been a
diligent collector OF everything connected with
the history of the American Government, and
his efforts were crowned with a brilliant sue
cess. 1t was the pride OF his life, and for this he
erected for himself a lasting monument to his
industry and faithful research.
For the past year his health has steadily de-
clined, and on Tuesday of last week he took to
his bed, from which he never arose.
In his last moments he had the happy satisfac-
tion of gazing on the faces Of those most dear to
him on earth, and last night, at seven o'clock,
his spirit was waited to the realms on high.
His mind, ever an active one, In his last mo.
ments was perfectly calm and serene, and he
passed away ripe in years and rich In honors,
and, "like one who wraps the drapery OF his
couch about him to lie down to pleasant DIRE ans -
with him LIES ltful fever's DER, and he sleeps
we'll"
