In MenOrianl.

In the death Of the late James Donnelly our
community has lost one of its most honored
citizens yet we must humbly submit to the
will of Him who doeth all things we'll.
He was most kind and. indulgent father
and husband; he was noble, brave and gen
erous to fault to know him was to love him;
to speak of him was to praise him; upright
and honorable in all business transactions, he
was ever ready to aid and comfort those in dis
tress, and many are the sad hearts who now
mourn his loss, but we trust thatsour great
loss may be his everlasting gain. His death
has left vacancy In our ranks which time can
never I'LL.
Our thoughts 70 with the dead,
Who from earths dwelling place have de-
parted
With him the light and Joy has Ged.
Gone are the joys his presence once i'm
parted.
In bitterness of spirit We deplore
The loss of him, who will return no more.
Stronger than death thou art,
Oh, memory; thou with watchful care art
keeping
The dearest treasure of the human heart
The memory Of our lost one, who art
sleeping
Where silently the dews of Heaven are weeping
In memorys glass his dear, familiar face,
Unchanged by time, distinctly We can trace.
May HIS soul rest in peace. X. NJ. G.

A Great House.

Likes, Berwanger & Co., No. 80 Seventh
street northwest, claim to be the only
house in Washington that manufactures
its own goods, and they make this claim
with positive knowledge that it cannot be
honestly disputed. Every article of cloth
ing in their stock is made by them, and
they, therefore, are safe in warranting
the goods they offer to the public as su-
perior in material, cut and make to those
found elsewhere in the city. They have
achieved reputation for the general ex-
cellence of their goods, and particularly in
the matter of fitting. The average coat,
vest and pants in their stock is quite equal
to the best custom made work in this re-
spect. Every variety of fashionable style
and design is contained in their stock.
Their spring lines in coats, vests, pants,
overcoats ETC., etc, are very full and attrac'
tive. 1t is worth visit to their large es-
tablishment to see the extent and variety
of the goods they offer. Everything needed
by the largest man to the smallest boy is
visible and for sale there at most reason
able prices-prices considerably less than
elsewhere. Every kind of cloth and the
best of every kind, cut and made up in the
most artistic manner-broadcloths cassi'
meres, cheviots, diagonals, fannels, tweeds
etc. Every reader of this notice should dc
himself the justice of calling on Likes
Berwanger s. Co., for the purpose Of com
pairing their goods and prices with those o
other establishments before purchasing
This firm is confident that it is offering
better goods for less money than any othe
house in the clothing line in Washington
Call on them before buying. You will no
be expected to buy unless glad to do so.

The church and the Turf.

A Louisville (Ky.) dispatch says the congrc-
CATION at the Christian Church in that city
was much surprised Sunday night when Rev.
Dr.. Yancey, the pastor, introduced General
Abe Buford with the remark that the old turf
man would deliver short address in lieu OF
the evening discourse. General Buford mad
something to say In regard TO the Church and
the turf. The drift Of his argument was that
church members could censcientiously visit
the races. General Buford' g position as sum-
med up, is just this: The racehorse is too
important factor In the commercial pros
perity of Kentucky, a State which Is world
famous for its blooded stock, to be ignored by
the religious element because OF the misman-
agement Of some Of the racetracks and be-
cause some people bet on the races. The
Church must not drive men away because
they believe in horseracing as necessary to
the Improvement Of the breed, but should
rather strive to have the evils now connected
with the sport remedied. The General said
that there were some evils which existed on
Eastern courses which do not exist In Ken
lucky, and in his remarks he paid complt-
ment to the Louisville Jockey Club for Its
benevolence in donating largo sum oi
money to the yellow fever sufferers.

The EIks' Entertainment.

The Elks gave another social session to their
friends last evening, which was highly enjoy
able. Tho large hall was thronged with gen.
tlemen, citizens OF excellent standing In tho
community, well known in business circles,
and number Of strangers from abroad. While
It was conceded that the first social given by
the order was lne, IL was universally voted
that the one of last night could not be excelled
and the visiting Elks voted that "the baby"
lodge was outstripping It's elder sisters In
hospitality. The programme offered consist
ed of vocal and instrumental music, recita
Ions, &c.
Mr. John Robinson, an cid and long estab-
6 he'd favorite In this city, was n visitor and
m ct q hearty welcome, showing that absence
ha not weakened friendship and that he still
held warm place in the hearts of his friends.
His recitation of "The Tramp" was finely
given and worthy the encore bestowed. Mr..
Hammond, of Philadelphia Lodge, reclted
"Spartacus' Address to the Gladiators" in
most excellent style. He possesses a flne voice,
pleasing to the ear, and as a reader shows
marked ability. He was heartily applauded,
and in response read a little poem instructive
to verdant young men.
Mr.. Alexander Simon later In the evening re-
cited "Roger and T. and "Little Meg in q
manner creditable to himself and pleasing to
the company. Messrs Rogers, Scott, Trodden
and others, home and foreign talent, met with
a most cordial reception for their singing, and
IL was difficult to satisfy the demands of the
audience. Space precludes detailed notice,
and suffice 1t to say the social was success
throughout, pleasing to the invited guests and
gratifying to the members OF the lodge. 1t may
not be out OF place TO add that this lodge,
started in February last and nicknamed "the
baby" on account Of being the youngest in the
order, has now grown to most healthy child
1t has seventyfour members, and the cry Is

The statement from Virgil w. Earp. published in the Sin Fran cisco Examiner of May 27th, puts new light upon the political aspect of the dOings of his broth CTS. Coming as it does through the acknowledged organ par ex- cellence of the democratic party on this coast, the lesser lights of Arizona will have to do some ground and lofty tumblIng to fall in line gracefully. While there are many things said in this statement which appear contra dictory, there is yet no room to doubt that in substance it is cor rect. Even if there was the least particle of political significance in the action of the Earps. as deputy United States MarshaIs, it is be- ing every day made more appar> ent that the opposition they met came from the same wing of the democratic party which is now trying to make electiOneeing capital out of it. The Earps have all along been upheld by those of the democracy who have any re- gard for law and order. And now it tappears that the two fugative
