OBITUARY In this city, on Friday
last, about l O'Clock, a. M, E. L.
Jones, Of New, Haven, Conn, died OF
heart disease, aged about 80 years.
Poor Ned! All of us knew him from
the little toddlers just learning to walk
up to the Oldest. The little ones all
loved him. and the old ones lost sight
OF bis faults in his great open-heared-
ness Ever genial, his smiling face,
like beam of sunshine, spread light
and gaietyJ wherever he went. 70
within an hour of his death he had been
playing his violin ut young folks
ball, and had not yet reached his room,
when like the Whit of a candle his soul
left, and the GREAT SEAL to him was
broken. His funeral which took place
yesterday, was conducted by the Mason
ic Order, and besides his brethren Of the
Mystic Cralt, many other friends fol-
lowed him to the grave.

they are earnest about it before puttiag
them into your parlOrs. If they arr in
want give them wholesome labor to
perform, and earnestly assist them up
the thOrny way they have attempted to
climb. But earnest refOrmers general
ly have some feeling of mOdesty and
they will not permit themselves to be
present at every public gathering.
Where the reverse of this is seen, it Is
best to be charitable but not foolish.
