JUDGE MCILVAINE'S FUNERAL.
Special to Cleveland Leader
NEW PHILADELPHIA, O., Dec. 27.-
The funeral Of Hon. George W. Nell
vaine here to-day was largely attended.
The various members of the Supreme
Court and othes distinguished person.
ages were present from many of the sur
rounding towns and cities. An elegant
floral tribute from the Bar of Jefferson
county was received by the family this
morning.
Judge McIlvaine served on the Su-
preme bench with Judges Boynton, John
son, White, Okey, Upson, Doyle and other
eminent legal lights, and was considered
one of the strongest men on the bench.
He took leading part in all the deicis-
ions that came before the court, and it
will be remembered wrote the adverse de-
cision of the court in the Pond law, on
account of the bond feature of the en-
actment. He also wrote the celebrated
decision of the Supreme Court affirming
the constitutiOnality of the Scott law,
decision that is considered among legal
authorities as being one of the ablest
documents that ever emanated from any
Supreme bench.
Judge McIlvaine had a perfect judicial
mind and had the faculty of seeing all
the points in a case, however obscure, al
most by intuition. His position in the
highest court of Ohio was commanding
one, and during all the years of his faith
full and brilliant services no man stood
higher in the estimation of those hest
able to judge of his splendid legal attafnzs
ments. AS Common Pleas Judge in this
district his decisions were never over
ruled, and he had the well-earned repu-
tation of being model jurist. He was
married three times, his third wife sur
viving him. He also leaves two sons and
two daughters. In his honor Governor
Foraker ordered the flags of the capitol
to be displayed at half mast

the President, and his gradual, yet deci-

sion back to the honored old Democratic
doctrine of Jefferson, Jackson and Til
den, who knew nothing of competitive
literary examinations and non-psrtisan
administration, but held that it was wise,
as a rule, to put none but Democrats on
guard" So that now the Mugwumps
can rejoice only in Cleveland's fatness
and free trade.

bride her old exploit of killing bear?
That divorced men are marrying again
as quickly as some of the divorced
women.
That the trouble with national opera
is that it has not enough national cur
rency.
That society is overerowded with peo-
pie who never let an influential friend

That the average society man rarely
invests fifty cents in anything outside
of himself.
That now is the time everybody quar-
rels with the man who wants the car
window open.
That the slangy headlines tell what
kind of men are employed as editors of
"great dailies."
That the people compare the Post
master General to the very green two
cent stamp he gave us.
That it is a coincidence that IrYing's
~Faust" should be condemned by one
of England's clergymen.
That one of these days there viii be
memorial windows in churches to heirs

That one of the magazines has ae-
cepted an article once refused, although

THE time has arrived when the Dem
ocrats should cease to fret their gizzards
about the Republican nominee for Pres
idmt next year, and begin to cast about
fo, an available candidate of their own.
Cleveland is losing ground in the party
every day, and is now regarded by many
ofthe party leaders as unavailable. Why

Gndy? Or, if it be thought inadvisable

gagged in the rebellion, what is the mat
tor with John G.. Carlisle?

SHE HAD A BIG HAND.

n. Y. SIln.
Roscoe Conkling sat in a theater the
other evening. A hand was laid on
his shoulder from behind. 1t belonged
to certain highly fashionable matron
of his acquaintance, but it was large
organ, notwithstanding that it had nev-
er done any labor. "Yes, SIR" said
Conkling, mistaking it for the hand of a
man. Then his eyes fell on the femi-
nine sleeve attached to it, and confused
ly murmured: 81 beg your pardon"
"Oh, no offense, 1 assure you," the
lady good humoredly responded.
Mr.. Conkling then said: "This re-
minds me of an actual case in which a
mistake in the gender Of hand brought
about divorce suit A wife had large
hand, and it happened one evening that
she sat with her husband and several
others on rural veranda. The husband
was smoking cigarette, and, as it was
very dark indeed, the wife took IT from
him for a surreptitious Whit. Now,

girl. She and the man were on senti-
mental terms, but until now quite un-
known to the woman. The well-devel-
oped hand Of the wife, with the cigar
cite, CHANGED to swing into contact with
that of the girl, who took hold of it,
and thought from its size that it was the
husbands, felt convinced of it by the
cigarette, and thereupon pressed it to
her lips, rapturously believing that she
Yves taking safe opportunity of the
darkness. The eyes of the wife were
opened, metaphorically if not physically,
She watched the pair for few days, and
an action for divorce was soon insti-
tuted."

CINCINNATI is in bad way. The
Ohio is frozen over there, and the peo-
pie have given up all hope Of a coal sup
ply by river before February. The
price of coal is double what it was
year ago and will go higher. The large
manufactures are closed, their opera
tives idle, and with idleness comes a cold
wave and scarity of coal, even at ex-
Orbitant prices.

A MOTHERS DEVOTION.

All the way through mans life, be it
consumed like beautiful fabric in un-
holy passion or held aloft like st. Georges
banner undefiled in the battle of life,
his mother stands by him, and yearns
over him, and prays for him to the last.
If he is successful, she is proud; if he is
often cast down, she is pitiful; if he is
wicked, she excuses him; if he dies
young, her hopes are buried in his grave,
and she never ceases to dream of what
her darling might have been. Others
may love him well, but their love never
discounts hers. Others may be proud
ofhim, but she always sits in the front row
with those who applaud, and catches the
splendor of his achievements before it is
more to othereyes than a light reflected
from afar, or the noise of wings that tar
rv in their coming. She anticipates his
triumphs and antedates his victories.
There is an II told you so" in her proud
eyes long before men hand in the ver-
dict of his greatness, and all his achieve
ments are but the prophecies of her low
ing dreams.
And when she dies, when the flutter-
ing breath has expended itself in the
last kiss, when the soft old hands have
loosened their clasp, never before re-
moved since his helpless baby days, when
the patient, yearning eyes have with
drawn their gaze to look their first on
God, what loss can overtake mans life
like this? The dove that brooded above
the household nest and kept every nurse
ling in the shadow of her wings, has
winged her flight to heaven. The ever
lasting love that no unfaith, nor sin, nor
ingratitude could chill or destroy, has
vanished like the sun from out the sky,
having only few faint stars and a
wan and chilly moon to fill its place.

of thankfulness and content lowering

Sweet streams to lave the sea-salt sands,

LABOR in its various forms is the
foundation of all comfort, all progress,
all enjoyment, and even of life itself.
Our food, our clothing, our dwellings,
our schools, our government, our COM
forts, and the money which they cost,
are all representatives of the hard work
of many people in many places, and only
thus could they exist. Yet work has
other functions less widely recognized,
It is valuable for its effects upon the
worker himself. 1t strengthens his
muscles, developes his powers, raises his
courage. eXalts his character. 1t is the
pith and marrow of a happy, healthful
life.
