IT IS settled now. 1t is Mr.. Tilden who
has been saving this great republic all
these years. There arc thousands upon
thousands of fellows all over the country
who have a sneaking idea that they did
the saving business with their little mus
kets. How easily man can be mistaken.
And just as like as not these unreasonable
fellows will stick to it, even in the face of
Samuel's letter that they are the real old
DR.. Jacob Townsend saviors-none god
unless the name is blown in the bottle
But they are mistaken. Just let them get
samuel's letter and they will see it in
black and white that they are spurious
impostore, and not genuine saviors.

FUNERAL OF SELIG S. FISHER.

The funeral of Selig s. Fisher took place yester-
day morning at No. lis West FOrty-seventh-st
The services were conducted by DR.. g. GOttheil of
the Temple Emanu-El. There was a large gathering
of the relatives aud friends of the family. The
body was buredI at Salem Fields Cemetery at Cy-
press Hills, l.. l.
Franconia, Bavaria. arrived in this coun-
try when mere youth, and
soon he entered upon the manufacture of woolens
in Portland, Me. In 1888 ne came to New York,
where he continued the business on a larger
scale. At the time of his death he was proprietor
of the Bennington, Vt, WOollen Mills, the Raritan
n j. WOollen Mills aud the Baltic Mill, in
Philadelphia lie was vce-president of the Man
haitian Safe Deposit, Company, a. director of the
Fourth National Bank, director in the New-YCrk
Life, the FaIragut Fire and tho Germania Life In
suIanee Companies, and member of the Chamber
of Commerce.
The report that the death of Mr.. Fisher probably
would cause the shutting-down of the bennington
WOOllen Mills is premature. lie left a wife and
daughter, and what disposition they will make of
the property cannot be said. The business of
manufacturing woollens at present Is much de-
pressed, and if Mr.. Fishers mills, machinery and
stock were to be sold at once, it could be done
probably only at great sacrifice.
