GRACE CHURCH FAIR.
Touching Appeals for Aid by the Rector,
Rev. Francis GiIIiat.

Rev. Francis .Gilliat, Rector Of Grace Episcopal
Church, has issued the following touching appeal
to the clergy and laity In behalf of the fur now
being held at odd Fellows Hall for the benefit of
that church
The members of the congregation of Grace Church
have iberally patronized the same. The attendance
OF the churchmcn of the city, however, has been
comparatively small, the larger portion of the WASH
ingtOn parishes being poorly represented " at all.
GINS of money and fancy articles contributed by
friends outside of the city have been far Ia OF
those given by the various parishes of Washington,
not including those donations of money and fancy
articles so generously donated by Grace
Church parish itself: and yet we ARE told
by many who have been asked In other places to CON
tribute To necessity that the church In Washing
ton IL, ought to be, able and willing to carry Its
church work and enterprise. The Island, or Grace

"FULLY one-fourth of the pension
claims allowed have been fraudulent"
remarks a newspaper that is not in the
habit of lying as a regular diversion.
There is not particle of evidence on
which to base such an assertion. If even
one in fifty of the allowed claims has
been fraudulent the number of convic-
tions for the perpetration of these frauds
is surprisingly small. There has been
TOO much cry for the quantity of wool
shown. The Pension Bureau has the
best facilities for detection, arrest, trial,
and conviction of all who attempt frauds
on it. But such proceedings are of very
infrequent occurrence, and we are COM
PEELED to believe that most of the clamor
about pension frauds is mere idle talk.
Catch the rascals, and their existence will
be demonstrated.

The Organization of the House.

The Republican members of Congress
made their nominations at q single sit
ting on Saturday, and to-day will see the
nominees quietly elected. The selection
of Mr.. Keifer for the Speakership gives
great satisfaction. He is man of high
abilities and Republican without re-
proach. He is sound and reliable on
everything for which the Republican
party stands. He will be just, firm, and
courageous, and will have the cordial sup
port of the party and of the liberal ele-
ment not of the party.
Mr.. McPherson's denomination as Clerk
was q recognition of the fidelity with
which he had before discharged the
duties of the same office. The genial Yer
monter, Colonel G. w. Hooker, who was
brave soldier in the war for the Union,
and who is most earnest Republican,
was well worthy the compliment he re-
ceivcd in the nomination for Sergeant
alarms.
The Southern Republicans carried off
the Doorkeepership for nephew of the
late Governor Brownlow, of Tennessee,
at which they are much elated, and the
House Post-oflice went back into the
faithful hands of the former incumbent.
The defeated candidates and their
friends will all generously join in obey
ing the will of the caucus. The usual
number of energetic expressions of dis
content with some of the results of the
caucus were INDUCED in, but that is all
over now and to-day every man is for the
party and its choice.
The Readjusters from Virginia will
doubtless vote here rs their constituents
have just d-anti-Bourbon. They
went into no caucus, but they will show
their appreciation of the Administration
of President Arthur by according to his
party friends their cordial support.

The question of the eligibility of q
member of the House is different one
from that of the validity of the election
at which he claims to have been chosen.
1t is claimed by the opponents of John S.
Barbour, of Virginia, certified as q men,
ber-elect of the present Congress, that he
is ineligible by reason of non-residence.
1t is understood that objection will be
made to his being sworn in, and that
precedents will be cited to show that
he is not entitled to his seat on a prima
.tacie case. The papers and testimony for
a contest have been filed, and meanwhile
it will be for the Republicans of the
House to decide whether an ineligible
Democrat shall take a seat and vote upon
the organization. Let the precedents

The mortality statistics of this country
show that great proportion of deaths arise
from Heart Disease. But asid from the
atalIty which attends it, the inconvenience
and suffering which even the first stages
bring make it necessary to take prompt
measures for relief. Undoubtedly the great
est remedy of modern times for curing dis
ease Of the Heart is "Sedatine-d de- India, 4"
which is accomplishing such wonderful re.
suits and attracting so much attention.
This great remedy possesses ingredients
specially designed for all the numerous trou-
bles Of the Heart. The combination is the
result Of long and careful experiment and it
can be safely assc ted that when taken in
time i win cure in every case. Do you ever
have Nightmare, oppressed feelings in side

Jumping, Fluttering, Momcntary Stopping,
Slow Circulation Of the Blood? These are
all symptoms OF Heart Disease. Those who

A telegram from Newport, r. l. re.
cites a case brought to the attention of
the State Board of Charities, which
goes to show remarkable love and de-
vOtion of a mother to her imbeeile
child. The woman name is Harring-
ton, and she died about three weeks
ago in the town of Portsmouth, neal
the coal mines in this state. Soon
after her death her husband made
known the TACTIC the oVerseer of the
poor of the town that incarcerated in
the attic of his his house was his son,
William Harrington, nineteen years of
age, who was a maniac, and required
care and attention which he could not
give. The overseer of the poor inyes-
tigated the affair and found matters as
represented by the father. He learned
that for a period Of fifteen years the
poor lad had been confined in the at
tic Of the house by his mother. who
during all these years was the only
person whom her son had seen. She
was accustomed to visit his lonely
room, which was darkened, and feed
him with her own hand. The atten-
ton she bestowed on him was the re-
suit of her love and devotion to her
unfortunate offspring. She had jeelous-
ly guarded her secret from her neigh
bors, fearing that steps would be
taken to tear her boy from her.
When she died the father attempted
to follow her example, but was not
equal to the task. Last Monday
young Harrington was removed from
the attic. He was found to be about
half clad and to be literally covered
with a long growth of hair. He was
taken to Providence by the over
seer Of the poor and two of the select
men of the town of Portsmouth that
morning by the Fall river steamer.
At the dock he ha1a tussel with the
overseer and gave him quite a shaking
up. The lad's wrist we're found to be
calloused, owing to his hands having
been tied up so many years. He was
then placed in a hack and taken to
the State Insane Asylum, where he
will be kindly cared for.
