THE LATE BOSWELL Il. JEROME.

The death Of this young gentleman cast gloom
over large circle OF friends and associates to whom
the shock was doubly severe because it came un-
heralded and unlocked for. An lnsidious ana un-
suspected disease brought few hours Of illness. and
then the spirit departed. Death seems always sud-
den ana unwelcome, but more especially 80 when
1t bears away young man In the vtg0r Of his life
and the zenith OF his usefulness.
Roswell Hart Jerome was born OCTOBER !, 1876, In
the city OF Rochester, N. Y, where he passed his
childhood Showing an uncommon taste and aptt
tude for study, he was sent In early youth to con-
tnue his education for four years at college in
France and Germany. Returning to America, he
became midshipman In the United States Naval
Academy at Annapolis, where his talents ana In
dustry gave MIN high standing In his class, and
ms genial and frank nature made him lavorite
with his classmates. Retiring from the navy,
he devoted himself to the study OF law,
profession for which mis- quick perceptions,
admirably fitted him. Having pursued the course
at the Harvard Law School, Cambridge, where he
graduated with credit ne entered upon the prac-
tce OF his profession IN this CITY, and was rapidly
gaining reputation at the bar when he received
an appointment under Judge Garvin, IN the ONCE
OF the District Attorney, position which he held
up to the time OF his death. In reviewing his
our admiration and regard. HIS genial qualities
OF mind and heart, his generosity and manly INDIE
pendence or character endeared him TO all with
whom ne was associated. Nature endowed him
with her choicest gifts, both mental and physical;
fortune gave him rare advantages for their culture
and developments; his energy and untirlng industry
made the most OF these gifts and III his snort career
he attained degree OF proficiency In law, science
and letters such as Is reached by lew men IN long
lifetime.

Travel in Brooklyn yesterday was virtually sus-
pended, for on some OF the routes no cars were
run, and the few which were run ON Others was
far from supplying the demands OF the public. Al
though notices OF the fact that the cars would not
be run had been gwen, yet it would seem. from the
number Of people who appeared upon the street
corners and

to convey them to their various places Of worship,
that they had taken no notice OF the warning or
had any sympathy for the poor horses No cars
were run on the Atlantic and Fifth Avenue lines,

able to reach their favorite churches.

only four or five cars were run on the Green and

Half the usual number OF cars were run on the
their utmost capacity. Several which came down
the avenue were not only filled inside but were

hundreds ofpeople were unable to ride and were
