THERE is one pleasant face, one generous
heart, one honest and true man, whose
voice and manly form will never more be
seen or heard on this earth.
Colonel Bledsoe Harmon, one of the most
generous and whole.souled men that ever
lived, died very suddenly on Sunday morn
ing of apoplexy, at his hotel, in this city.
At six o'clock he was talking to his wife
apparently in as good health as he had been
in for some time. About halfpast seven
she heard him breathing very hard and,
calling to him, discovered that he was
dying. She called for help, but before any
assistance could be rendered he had solved
the great mystery and crossed over the
river of time to rest in the peaceful calm
of eternity.
Colonel Harmon was the grandson of ex-
Governor De Shae, of Kentucky, and was
connected with the Breckenridges and John
sons of that State. He was man Of con-
siderable ability and fine address.
His remainsar at the undertaking estab-
lishment of Mr.. Buckley, from whence they
will be removed to their last resting place.

account of the differences between District
Commissioners West and Morgan, Colonel
Lydecker standing by the latter. That
night the able correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Times rewroto the matter, showing
its relations to the great political struggle
going on in Pennsylvania. The eagle eye
of the brilliant editor of the scintillant Post
fell en- it, and he utilized it this morning,
adding some more or less disjointed and un-
reliable particulars. Perhaps the EUening

IT IS intimatcd in some quarters that the
great railroads are opposed to the plans of
the Mississippi River Commission. This is
an obvious and palpable error. The great
railroads do not want the great river i'm
proved. They know that the plans of tho
River Commission, based on the old, bar
barous, unscientifc levee system, will never
make the river permanent and formida-
BILE rival to them for the carrying trade.
They know that the jetties are simply
the means of paying a sometime tinker
of st. Louis enormous sums of money
for maintaining by means Of dredg-
ing about tho same channel in the
South Pass as nature, with less assistance,
maintained free in the Southwest Pass.
Knowing these things they are not op-
posed to the Commissions plans. On the
contrary, they are great admirers of the
sometime tinker's plans for the Improve
ment" of the Mississippi. No; the great
railroads do not oppose the River Commits
sion's plans. They have great admiration
for them.

ELSEWHERE we reprint from tho New
York Herald long account Of the recent
meeting of the Mississippi River Commits
sion, to apportion the $5,OO0,0OO given to
them to "improve" that river. From the
absurd secresy with which they surrounded
their meeting; the ridiculous mystery with
which they enshroud their plans, and the
singular reticence they maintain concern:
ing tho disposition they propose to mako of
the millions intrusted to their charge,
they will have only themselves to blame if
the opinion prevails among the people that
there is something more than dignifed and

Horrible Sufsrings and Death Of Mother
and Child In tho Woods.
DETROIT, July 2f.-On June 16 Mrs. Wilson
and two small children aged nine and seven,
left their home near Newburg station on the
new Marquette & Mackinac railroad, about
midway between the two points, to visit q
neighbor, going through large piece of
woods which had been frequently trayersed
before. A boy of twelve was left to take care
of the house, the father being at work on the
roilroad, eighteen miles away. The woman
got lost in the woods and five days after the
boy made his way to the father and informed
him Of the prolonged absence of his mother.
Search was at once instituted
and kept mp long time, but finally
abandoned on the suppositlon that ali
the little party had been devoured by wild
beasts. Last Monday, however, a hunter
found the body of the mother and one child
lying behind the root of fallen tree, with the
other child, little girl, alive sitting beside
the dead bodies. From her it was learned
that they lost their way, wandered for days in
endeayors to find the path, living on various
roots. Later they established themselves at
the place where found and lived on green
cranberries from the adjacent marsh until the
mother and child died.
