Death OF . well Known Artist.


Il. L. Tatnall, the well known artist,
81 q at his residence In this city at TAO
o jiock last Saturday evening In the 66
year of his age. The deceased was
born in the house now occupied by
Christian Febiger, in Brandywine vii
lale, where he resided until he was .
young man, when he removed to the
farm recently occupied by Randolph
Peters, on the Hare's Corner road,
where no followed farming for . num-
bar OF years. He subsequently, relin.
pushed that, and embarked In the
lumber business in this city, and con-
tiuusd in 1t for some fifteen or twenty
years, and retired In 1873 or 70.
Mr.. Tatnall always had possessed
considerable taste for art, and shortly
after he retired from business was
visited by q Philadelphia celebrated
marine. landscape painter, Hamilton,
who willie he was at Mr.. Tatpall's,
painting several pictures. This opened
to him new study, and after provid-
ing himself with an artists outfit he
found that he WAS Q horn artist, and
could with the greatest ease and facili-
ty transfer his sketches to canvas. He
soon rose 10 be one Of the first artists Of
the present day, and his works were
eagerly sought after BY lovers Of the
hne arts.
Some four months ago his health
commenced to fail, and after being
under the care of physician for some
time started, under his advice, for
DC can Beach, where he remained until
about four weeks ago, when he return
ed to his home as he then thought
much improved. But the insidious
disease was still doing its fatal work,
and abo 1t one week later, when he was
taken down TO his bed, his physicians
decided that he was suffering with
Bright's disease, which then made
rapid progress until the end.

Proved it on Him.

This story. or something like it,
was told by Gen. Shields when be
last visited Boston. While in Ken
lucky, he was approached by port
ly, substantia[looking man, who
said: &c wish to give you a piece of
advice. Never deny anything.
Some time ago I ran for Office III this
section of the country, and resolved
to keep quiet whatever was said
about Inc before the election, which
was to take place in about o month.
The first week they accused me of
being q horse-thief, but l paid no
attention to it. The second week
they asserted that l had been treas
urer of q trust company and ran
away with the thv funds, and 1 re-
ceived this in silence. The third
week they said had induced my
right-hand neighbor to make over his
property to me temporarily, and then
refused to give it up, and still l
made no defense. The fourth week
they came forward with statemen.
that I had stolen the chickens of
my left-hand neighber, a worthy old
lady, and sent her to an insane asy.
lum. This made me indignant, and
l denied it in public, and I'll be
burned if they didn't go to work and
prove it on me-" There is a moral
contained in this story which some
of our political candidates might lay
to heart.

Why They We're " Fired"

The following letter, written by
Secretary Whitney, to Commodore
John II. Russell, Commandant at
the Marc Island (California) Navy
Yard, explains why the foremen at
the ward were dismissed:
"Snce assuming the duties of
this office, my attention has been
called to the conduct oi the foremen
of the Mare Island Navy Yard in
elections in past years, especially IN
1881. After reading the testimony
in the contested election case of
Buck VS.. Dudley, taken in the fall Of
1888, there is no doubt in my mind
that the vote of the yard was practi-
cally coerced and controlled by the
foreman, either with or without or
ders. Tue men were obliged to take
their ballots in a folded form from a
table presided over by one or more
of the foremen, hold the ballot in
sight while walking to the polls 100
feet distant between men stationed
for the purpose of preventing any
change of ballots on their part, and
the ballot deposited without the
voter having had the opportunity TO
see or know its contents, or to exer-
else any choice for whom he should
cast his ballot. l find that the same
foremen who conducted this pro-
c.ding are still at the yard in the
various departments. Great COM
plant is made to NE of similar pro-
ceedinss in other yards, but have
already read sufficient of this sworn
testimony to satisfy me that the men
who were engaged in that proceed
ing as foremen, directing and con-
trolling it, should be cleared out of
the yard in the interest of decent
government, and if any similar pro
ceeding, or anything like it, or at
tempt to coerce the vote of the en-
ployes of the yard by foremen or su-
perior officers, should take place
hereafter, whether in the interest of
the dominant party or otherwise, 1
will apply a similar remedy. Ap-
pointments in place of the persons
discharged will be made temporarily
and upon trial until efficient men
shall Lave been obtained"
