GEORGE G.. HARDING.

The following tribute to .he men,
ory of the late George G. Harding is
taken from the Indianapolis News.
We heartily endorse the sentiments
expressed. The manly traits in
the character of George Harding
have embalmed his memory in
The hearts of thousands. Stern
and unsparing in the denunciation
of wrong, quick to espouse the cause
of the injured, tireless worker and
a faithful friend, truly can We say
that as long as memory lasts he will
not be forgotten:
"a troubled life, not so long In
wears but crowded with struggles
and difficulties and sharp trials that
would have overcome most spirits,
has closed with the death of George
g. Harding. Life to him was fitful
fever. We hope he sleeps WELL

hand conflict with the world began

GEORGE ELIoT's DISCOVERY.
The London Worlds Statement of the
Record of George Lewes.

lCincinnat Gazettel
Scandals regarding the dead had better re-
main untold. Yet when they explain what
seemed unaecountable, and when if one per-
son is justified though at another's cost, they
may be repeated. A London paper not long
ago limited that George EIiots marriage to
Mr.. Cross So soon after the death of Mr..
Lewes, for whose sake she had sacrificed
reputation and social position, was occa-
stoned by discovery that Lewes was un-
worthy of her." We find full assertion of
this in the London World, which declares
that she found among his papers evidence
that she had no reason to mourn for him.
1t adds:
'Some people think that the story of that
first alliance has yet to be written and it is
pretty well known that, as regards the gen.
tleman's career, it Will be a very curious
revelation of pOsitivisit mortality Every
one knows that he was won't in old days to
publish his good fortunes in any compa-
ny and to any audience with ioy and pride
Equally notorious was his confidence in the
irresistible charm of his face and figure.

allusion. He Cher Objectionable hero)

ence. 1t may seem incredible to
you that a confectioner should have ideas
and conversation so much resembling those
to be met with in higher walk of life; but
you must remember that he had bowlegs
and sallow small featured visage so that
nature herself had stamped him for a con-
noiseur OF the sex In another book she
speaks not with irony, but with intense feel
ing, of the horror of woman who is con-
scious of guilty secrets in her husbands
past Of all the polite obituary notices
which showered about our ears on the occa-
sions of those two recent deaths, not one
was candid
1t has been the fashion to apologize for
the Lewes-Eliot arrangement as something
wholly exceptional, rendered so by the ex-
alted genius of the parties, and the asser-
ton, since contradicted, was made that they
would have been legally married but for the
impossibilty of securing a divorce for the
masculine offender from disreputable wife,
whose misconduct he had once condoned
If what the World says is true, the great
novelist fell victim TO libertine, and dis
covered at last that she was by no means the
only object of his devotion. We think that
Mr. George A. Lewes will not rank so high
in the future as a novelist as he has in the
past. The story is sad one, and its moral
is too obvious to need enforcement.

him, leaving ineffaceable marks
Few men have been tried more bit
terly. Many of his troubles were OF
his own making, for he bad strong
passions and an indomitable will, and
the whole training of his life led him
into aggression in what was, or what
he thought was, self defense. He
was quick to resent offence or injury
and was impulsive as to methods, but
where reflection convicted him of a
wrong action, he was quick to regret
it. He was a rugged character
Like an oak on hill top, tossed and
bent by the wind, scared by the
weather, clinging rigidly to rocky
soil, and yet so full of life and vigor,
so well developed at some points, as
to suggest continually the might
have been if rich soil and dew and
rain and kindly sunshine had fos-
tered it. There was q manliness
about him, most attractive, though
warped and gnarled. There was Il
sweetness in his composition which
only his intimates enjoyed. Any
conception of the man based upon
his work, is pretty certain to be in
adequate and erroneous. In ordinary
d&y-to-day life he was extremely
modest. There was remarkably little
self-assertion in his acts or speech
He was exceedingly genial and COM
paniOnable, apt In conversation,
witty, original and shrewd, full of
"horse sense" He had been a keen
observer of men all his life, and a
very retentive memory was stored
with thousands of incidents and re-
marks of all sorts, and in the freedom
of congenial personal intercourse his
talk fairly sparkled. He was subject,
especially of late years, to ebbs and
flows of spirits, often being moody
and cast down, but by nature he was
ajoyous man and under different cIr
cumstances would have got much
pleasure out of life AS it was, he
rose from blows that seemed crush
ing, and went on his way bravely,
acting as appeared best to him at the
momont, but we do not think he had
many regrets if in his sickness he re-
allied the approach Of death. There
was much to blame, much to mourn
in the life of our friend But it is no
part of our task to Judge, when no
duty to the dead or living demands
it. He is with his Maker, and shall
not the Judge of all the earth do
right? But we remember with pleas
ure that there was much to admire,
to respect, and to love in his charac-
ter. He was perfectly honest, faithful
to his ideas of duty, manly and
courageous in attacking wrong and
defending right. His pen and brain
were ever enlisted for the saving
forces of society, for good govern
ment, for purity of life, and his work
in this community, where he lived
longest, has been of great value and
has impressed itself upon the life and
thought of our people in such a mn-
ner as to bear fruit long after his dust
has been diffused by mother earth.
As a journalist, his work has been
distinctive and peculiar. We shall
not see his like again here, for cir
cumstances have changed, but, long
as memory lasts, be will not be for
gotten

At recent dinner party in Madison Av-
enue, under the supervision of Pinard, the
table was spread with a scarlet CLOTH upon
which lay an open-work cloth of beautiful
design. Down the middle of the table ex-
tended rug of crimson velvet. edged with
gold fringe, the corners decorated with pea
cock feathers. Upon this was placed
q raised plateau of silver and glass, in the
center of which was large epergne of irri-
descent crystal, the branching arms of
which supported small baskets of flowers
The chandelier which overhung the epergne
was profusely trimmed with smilax, the
globes being covered with richly colored
shades. At either end of the plateau h
gilt candelabrum holding red candles. On
the intervening CLASSY surface there were
miniature boats, drawn by swans and laden
with flowers. In the hooks and corners of
the room were candelabra, shedding GRIM
son light. Beside each lady was placed a
boquet of roses, and at each gentleman S
place a buttonniere. The dinner cards bore
poetical quotations appropriate to the guests
for whom they were severally intended.
On the back of the cards was written ques-
ton, whovea made the right answer to
which was to receive present. Throughout
the dianer low music was played by the
orchestra.

time unemployed, went out one morning,
saying that if he could not get work he
should never return. She has not seen or
heard from him since that day A month
later one of her children died, and since
then she has worked as long as she was able
to keep body and soul together, but, of
course, now she can do little or nothing. The
room in which the reporter found the family
is about as wretched a place as human beings
could exist in. One-half of the panes OF
glass in the two windows have disappeared
altogether, and rags and paper afford but a
slender protection against the keen, frosty
air. In addition to the children, Mrs. Muir.
