treat the matter with contempt. II
recent reports are to be relied upon,
Russia is just now in danger Of en-
lcountering great outburst of Mongo-

in case war should actually ensue
on grand scale, no military struggle
has occurred for centuries that would
attract more anxious attention. Chi
ma could probably put five men in the
field where Russia could put one, aud
if gold and ammunition were NEEDED
the British Empire would doubtless
oheerfully supply them. According Il
some accounts the European forces
could easily scatter. Other statements
are TO a directly contrary effect. The

OBITUARY..
AnotEer Centenarian Called Home.

AnOtl e. Centenarian Called Home.
Mrs. Julia A. Sharp died yesterday at
the residence of her son-in-law, Emanuel
p. Keller, Mannheim township, at the ad-
vanced age Of 80 years. She leaves two
daughters, the wives, respectively of ex-
County Commissioner Eman'l P. Keller and
+. F. Ruth, of this city. The late John L..
Sharp, prominent citizen of Mannheim
township, was her son. Mrs. Sharp was a
first cousin of Mrs. Catharine Ellmaker,
whose death, in New Holland, at the age
of 81, took place on the 25th
ult., as has been heretofore recorded.
She was also cousin OF Mrs. Judge Dale,
now residing with j. L. Lightner, of Bird
INLAND, and who is now the only surviv-
ing member of generation remarkable as
well for their many amiable qualities as for
their longevity. Among their kindred of
a younger generation may be named Hon.
Anthony E. Roberts, Judge Ellmaker,
Newton Lightner and others equally ven-
cradle in years. Mrs. Sharp was happy,
cheerful woman, and a pleasant companion
almost up to the day of her death. She
led quiet unobtrusive life, always looked
on the brightest side of life, and always had
word of encouragement for the despond-
ent. To these amiable characteristics, no
doubt, she partly owed her remarkable
good health and her heightened days. Her
funeral will take place from the resi-
dence of Emanuel P. Keller, on the Lititz
turnpike, on Monday afternoon at 2
o'clock, to proceed to Lancaster cemetery.
