oHlo,s AoNoRED SON.
The Remains of Garfield Transfcrrsa to a
New Sarcophagus.

New Sarcophagus.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Feb S.-When tbs re-
mains of the late President James A. Gar
field were placed in the vault ut Lake View
cemetery on Oct 6, 1881, they were encased
in an elegant bronze casket which was at
that time supposed to be proof against the
ravages of time. It has proved to be mis-
taken idea Four years of exposure TO the
open air has left marked traces OF decay
upon the beautiful burial case, and some
months ago it was decided by the
widow and family of the late
president to have the. i remains
transferred to coffin that, through its un-
mistakable stability, would set at rest all
fears as to the preservation of the ashes of
the dead president Hogan & Harris, under
takers, were given the contract to furnish
the new coffin, or sarcophagus, which
arrived at their establishment Friday. tits
perhaps the most durable casket ever con-
structed in America, and is a marvel of
beauty. AT each of the four lower corners,
elegantly carved lions feet serve as support
ers to the heavy frame, and the sides are
wrought in strong panels, which
are also decorated with graceful
carvings On the lid is a plate with the
inscription Garfield, 1884," in bold relief,
the background being an artistic combina-
tion of lichen, polyantheus, lilies, and oak
leaves, all being significant symbols of Gar
fields traits of character. 1t required
months time for the engraver to make this
plate, and it is beautiful study.
Saturday morning the new coffin was
taken to the cemetery, where, besides the
undertakers, were assembled James R. Gar
field, son of the late president, and
half dozen newspaper men, no
others being allowed within the gates
1t was at first intended to open the coffin in
which the remains have so long rested, but
young Garfield decided that he would not
have this done, preferring not to disturb the
tranquil repose of his dead father. Signs
of decay, however, are perceptible and it Is
probable that not many months will be re- |
quired to complete the return of dust to
dust. The transfer was made without Incl
dent and at about 10 o'clock a. nj. the lid OF !
the sarcophagus was screwed down, thus
shutting out from view forever all that re-
mains on earth of Ohio's honored son.

LONDON, Feb. s.-Mr. Gladstone has com
Aberdeen viceroy of Ireland, Lord Wolver-
ton postmaster general, Mr.. j. Rigby solic-
itor-general, and Mr.. j. Ceilings secretary OF
the local government board The earl OF
Aberdeen is only 80 years old, and is mem
Der of the celebrated Gordon family, which
has furnished SO many leaders and heroes to
Great Britain. He is much more popular in
Ireland than Lord Northbrook, who was con-
sidered as certain to get that office. The earl
of Aberdeen has been a warm personal
friend of Mr. Gladstone 1t will be remem-
bered that Immediately after Mr.. Glad
stones defeat in the house of commons, just
eight months ago, when he had resigned the
premiership and was as near being in dis
grace with the people as he ever came to be-
ing in his life, and when the leaders of his
own party were deserting him, the earl of
Aberdeen conspicuously showed his conf
dence and friendship by offering the fallen
chisftain the use of his splendid country
residence near London for the rest Of the
season, and went out of the way
to give further proofs that he
still regarded Mr.. Gladstone as the
only recognized leader Of the Liberals.
These marks of loyalty are being recalled
now and commented on in connection with
the announcement of the earl of Aberdeen's
being made a minister as showing that the
"Grand Old Man" does not forget his
friends. The earl of Aberdeen is high COM
missioner in the Scottish church and is pres
ident Of the Royal Geographical society.
DUBLIN, Feb. a.-The Freeman's Journal
says that the earl of Aberdeen, who was

will do all the work connected with the gov
ernment of the country.

! WILMINGTON, Del, Feb. s-There is a
strong fear among the peach-growers of the
peninsula that the severe cold of Wednesday
and Thursday night has badly injured the
trees and ruined the prospects for crop
next summer, The mercury fell to z degrees
below zero in the peach districts and re-
manned at that point for about twelve hours.
The most extensive growers in this country
say that at 5 degrees below zero the trees
ara badly injured and at degrees below the
damage is SO great that the orchards will
not yield at all during the following sum-
msr. If there are any peaches next summer
It win be due to the fact that the ground
was heavily covered with snow, which
afforded the trees some Pre- lection.

Father Ritchie Saying Requiem Mass.

NEW YORK, Feb. S-Father Richie,
pastor of st. Ignatius church, late of Chi
cago, is attracting great deal of atten-
tion again by persisting in saying requiem
mass for the repose of souls. Father Brown,
pastor Of the Episcopal Church of ST. Mary
the Virgin, celebrated one of these masses
Saturday morning for the repose of the
soul of Father Noyes, formerly connected
with the church. Bishop Potter has been
appealed to by the regular church to
stop the requiem practice, but he said he
had not been officially notified of any such
act and could not stop it. Father, Ritchie
said: The prayer-book is the authority
for the saying of such masses. 1t provides
for the saying of mass, or what is COM
monty known as the communion service,
at such time as the priest may think
proper"

Classification of Wool.

WASHINGTON CITY, Feb S.-The commit
tee Of the National Academy Of Sciences
appointed by Secretary Manning to consider
the classification of wool has submitted an
elaborate report on the subject. They find
that any classification Of woods for tariff
founded on any of the physical characters
named, or on the alleged treatment as "un-
washed" washed" or secured, must of ne
cessity be entirely arbitrary and in many
cases uncertain and unsatisfactory. A clas-
stfication founded on chemical characters,
determined by the amount of actual wool
fibre, in the opinion of the committee, may
be used as the fixed quantity for rating
sDecif1c tariff
