BEAVER DAN, KY, April 21st, 1856.
William Stuart Burrows was born in
Miffiinburg. Pa, May 18th, 1867. He
came with his parents to Beaver Dam,
KY, March Sd, 1885. at which place he
died Friday morning, April 18th, 1885,
at 3:43 O'Clock. He died of that fatal
malady, pleuro pneumonia, He was
snatched by the ruthless hand OF death
from fond parents just as he was merry
ing into manhood, and truly would IL
have been manhood, for he was one Of
the most promising, bright and hopeful
buds that ever grew on parent stem.
Willie was member of the Netho-
dist church, in good standing, at Mif.
fiinburg, Pa. He was highly intellect
ual, cultivated and refined. his parents
being college bred and scholarly, had
taken great pains In rearing and train
ing him, and well did he avail himself
of his chances. He was ambitious and
aspiring, but modest and unassuming.
He won the love and esteem of all both
old and young by his polhe and manly
habits. No other youth ever came in
our midst and won such high regard in
so short a time. He strove hard to
master the dread disease and had be
done SO he would have gone in a few
days to fine farm in northern Dakota,
which his father would bave given him.
His mother, 100, had fine gold watch
In waiting to present him on his
eighteenth birthday-nearly within his
grasp. Truly death loves shining
marx.
The following beautiful lines were
yividly verified in his death:
"ro-day we are dressed in gold and silver
bright
Wrapped in a shroud before tomorrow
night"
His remains were taken, by almost
broken hearted parents, to Bringhamp-
ton, New York, for interment. Ii was
sad spectacle indeed to behold the
father with two little children and
mother almost frantic with grief, board
ing the train, while the body Of their
dear boy was being put in the express
car. to be taken to the silence of the
tomb in the far away North.
The presence of large number of the
citizens Of Beaver Dam and vicinity
evinces full well in what high esteem
Mr.. Burrows and family are held here.
This people deeply sympathize with
Mr.. Burrows and wife in their bereaye-
ment.
Weep not, dear parents, as those who
have no hope; there is n beacon light IN
the window of Heaven for you; there
is another sparkling jewel in the Mas
ter's crown.
Mans early hopes 20 great and high.
BY deaths rude hands are carried by;
But man should not weep or irown
When loved ones go to wear a crown.

THE THREATENED WAR BE-
TWEEN ENGLAND AND
RUSSIA.

Alexander III. Emperor of Russia.
The potentate whose portrait is here
presented rules ninety millions of peo.
pie with the hand of an autocrat. He is
the eldest son of Alexander III the ruler
assassinated by his subjects on March
IL, 1881. Alexander Ill has not yet at
tained the prime ofmanly strength and
ability. He was born March 10, 1S45.
Great pains were taken with his educa-
ton. In 1866 he married the Princess
Maria Dagmar, a younger sister of the
Princess Of Wales, daughter of Charles
IN, King of Denmark, aud sister of
Georgios l., King of Greece. His bride,
who had been a Lutheran previously,
joined the Greek Church, of which the
Car OF Russia is the head, and was
named Maria Feodorovna.
Upon the death of his father, Alexan.
der, of course, became Emperor IN his
place. 1t was not until May 81, 1885,, that
he was crowned Car of all the Russias,
and he was seldom seen by his subjects
before that date, Keeping himself shut
up in order to avoid the fate which had
overtaken his predencessor. On the day
of his coronation, however, he mani.
tested the manly confidence and cour-
age in his relations with the people,
which have characterized hin, since.
His reign has been quiet aud unevent-
ful rs regards domestic events. The re-
forms looked for by sanguine Russians
with preference for a constitutional
form of government have not been
granted; and it appears that Nihilism, if
not checked, has not grown since its
murder of the Cars honored father.
In its foreign policy the empire under
Alexander III has. been amicable to-

FLOWERS.IN HEAVEN

FLOWERS are wanted in heaven today
An angel said 10 me;
"And We have enough save a few more buds,
And your little bud would see"

The angel looked in her face and smiled:

"l will take this bud il q pleaseth thee"
looked at the child, and Thought, alas.
Life is ever as brittle glass.
In manhood as In infancy;
Some day when my bud doth wider ope,
Just when for the full-blown flower hope,

And to wish with many and many tear

And granted my God His way.

My bud shall never more sorrow nor cry;
Ny bud shall never fade nor fall,
And will not think of the dreary tomb;

And will have no funeral palH
For this is not death with the sombre wing;
'Tis but transplanting the dear little thing
To the garden of my God.
All, me! shall miss her that know,
But will not call this cruel blow,
Nor say, 81 have felt the rod"
so took my babe 10 my loving breast,
And nursed. soothed and sung her TO rest;
The angel meanwhile smiled
'she is sleeping" said, "let her not awake

Then turned and bowed me tn the ground,

But have no fears and love to think,
ofthe lilies above at the fountains brink;
And quiet my heart with the precious tho't

The state of business in Congress is more IA

appears from the fact that the deficiency appro-
priation BILL the last of the SERIES is about ready
70 be reported TO the House. The naval bill is
expected TO come up to-day. 1t is free from con-
troversial features, and is not likely to detain
the House, unless the Randall provision for re-
organizing the navy provokes discussion. The
subcommittee on the Notifications bill, which
swelled the bill TO S5,OOO,OOO, have been in
structed In committee TO cut off the new fea-
lures and report simply the usual BILL This &C
ton will tend TO facilitate proceedings In the
House. The sundry civil bill has some features
that may precipitate a struggle, especially if
silver legislation is attempted.
