INGERsoLL's tribute to the worth
of Roscoe Conkling, was a fine
grouping of word pictures. The
speaker is an infidel to the extent
that he says he does not knooo
whether there will be a future life
for mortals or not. In this he diff
fers from those who profess to
knO1o that there will be. His doubt
is plainly manifest in his rounding
up of the following sentence 1t
sounds very much like hopeful,
helpful belief.
+" Proudly he entered the dark
ness, or the dawn, that we call
death. Unshrinking he passed be-
y y.ond eur horizon, beyond the twi-
! ight's purple hills, beyond the ut
most reach of human harm or help
to that vast realm Of silence or Joy
where the innumerablo dwell"

Gov. GRAY, of Indiana, was for
merly Republican. and he says
that the lamented Senator Morton
held him by the coat-tails till they
were torn almost off in trying to
detaln him as he was escaping
from that party. There is proba
bly, an error in this statement as to
Senator Mo. toms object in holding
up the skirts Of Gray's coat. If a
man is trying to kick an offensive
person out of his presence, q con
cealed bottle in the coat-tall pocket
is calculated to cripple the kicking
force.

REQUIEsCAT IN PACE

Charles S. Tharber, who recent
ly died at Roswell, was one who,
though not citizen of this coun
ty, had endeared himself by strong
and heartfelt friendship to many
Of our people, and by all looked
upon as Il champion of their inter
ests and welfare.
He was representative cattle
man, but of that honest quality
that admits Of all industries with
out fear, and his concessions were
by no means favors.
A peculiar characteristic lie In
an earnest endeavor to support all
men and ideas on principles of in
dependence, and, whilst he might
become heated III argument, he
never lost sight OF tie tenaclty
with which an opponent clung to
his own opinions.
Though engaged, pecuniariy, IN
only the cattle business, he was in
terested in development of all
kinds looking to the development
OF the country, and right heartily
would he antagonlze in any argu-
ment any idea that favored a stand
still policy.
While possessed of the sturdy
attributes born of worldly expert
ence, and moral in all things, he
believed strongly in human nature
and thought that habits and weak,
nesses were more the result OF cir
cumstances than an evidence OF
the nature of the person.
Though What is commonly de
nominated good man." his
greatest detestation was the Phari-
sees, and as any idea he entertain
ed was likely to find vent, not a
few who were hYpocrites were
brought 10 silence by his blunt ex-
preston OF very positive opinion
AS a counselor he was mild, CON
siderate and kind, but never tried
to bridge over a difficulty he be-
lieved in fighting it out, whatever
it might be.
HIS was character purely Am.
erican, not a siugle trait being
tsaceable to the Scotch, unless il
were his passion for reading Bob
be Burns dialect poems, from
which he frequently quoted.
Believing the force OF nature
greater than the average individu
ality of men, he was quick to tor
