nothing since Saturday night, when he was standing
in front Of wallacks Theatre, until he found himself
lying on a roadside near New-Canaan When he ar

HOW IT LOOKS TO A RECENT CONVERT.

To the EdttOr or The TrtouRS
Sir: am a young man Of Democratic antecedents,
but recent coayert to the Republican party. II
seems to me that the e1gences Of the situation demand
the denomination Of James @. Blaine No man ever
had his hold upon the and the heart Of work
ngmen- He is stronger everywhere than no was four
years ago. Cleveland and Democratic Administration
have been tried and found wanting. Cleveland rep
rescnts tarin reform so calculated TO parayzc all
kinds OF American industry; Blaine more than any
other man embodles the doctrine Of protection and
dignined and honorable stand in our relations with
Great Britain and other forel On nations
know no Republican opposed to him and I am
confident that as Foraker beat Hoady after one de-
feat In Ohio, as Lodge finally beat Lowering I'm Mass
achusetts so Mr.. Blaine can be elected.

MRS. MARY P. TABER

TO the Edit0r or Ths Tribune.
SIR 1t does not fitting that the lamented death
of widely known and well beloved as Mrs. NJ Ary
p Taber, the wife OF Henry NJ. Taber, ESQ.,, OF New
York City, and daughter Of the late Rev. william W.
Phillips D. D., should be allowed TO pass with nothing
than the short sad chronicle Of tho obituary col
umn in the daily press. That column announced that
she passed away on the 4th inst, and many were the
eyes which grew dim with tears they fell on the
heavy tdlngs. 1t not alone that happy home
had been plunged in grief 1t was was not alone that
an old historic church in NewYork had been called to
mourn the loss Of one who had been to 1t ornament
and support Many in all parts Of the land could but
feel that much Of light and soace had gone forever
out OF their hearts that sitting in the shadow Of
this great sorrow, they could longer turn to her
gracious and sunny presence for words OF cheer and
deeds OF love.
1t may be said Of Mrs. Taber in simplest truth that,
loving others better than herself she spent her e in
pouring the oil of gladness into human hearts. She
as ready to weep with them that wccp as to re-
joice with them that rejoice. Endowed with clear
intelligence and a warm heart, feengly alive to each
fine impulse of noble womanhood and delicate In her
Sensibes; tenacious in her affections and yet broad
in the range Of her sympahles, she was at tho same
time gifted with that saving common sense which set
seal of completeness to all her virtues and graces by
giving equal strength and beauty to her symmetrical
character. In every emergency Of life she was to
true occasion true' and In every walk Of life she
stanty proved herself resourceful as she was be-
nlgnant In her emotions she was as tender as she
was profound In her principles of thought and action
she was as consc enous as she was pure hearted In
her Christian walk and conversation she hum
bic she sanity. In her daily charities she
unobtrusve as she unceasing. In Che dispense
ton Of the small sweet courtesies' Of life, she
dropped from day TO day the fragrance OF her gentle
words and the balm of her kind deeds along the path
way Of those whom she loved and Of all who could be
helped by her unselfish minlstrations.
1t does not need TO be said that death had
ior one who through all her days had lived In this
ornament Of meek and quiet spirit did not fail hor
even under the WEAKNESS of a wasting disease. She
waited with patience and serenity till her change came
and having In her own heart tho peace that passeth all
understanding she selections only for the hearts
that TO be rent by the pain of the Inevitable part
ing. And so the Angel Of Death came at length and
gently loosed the silver cord' which bound beautl-
full life TO the home she blessed the church she served
the friends she loved and the social sphere she adorned
She rests from her abors but her works follow her In
the halo of goodness which lighted her pathway tho

TEMPERANCE IN NEw.Jrpcpv

To the Eduor OF The Trtbune.
Sir: Tho temperance men Of Cumberland County,
\. J., on May /, were busily engaged In circulating
petitions in accordance with the provision of the High
License and Local Option bill, passed by tho gisat-
ure last winter As this was Republican measure.
carried against the solid vote Of the Democrats with
two exceptions, the Republicans are conspicuous in
bringing out the good qualities Of the bill. The
general feeling of all temperance men IS that the
county will go dry in event of al election being
held. This county viii undoubtedly be made the
battlefield for the State. Tho position taken by the
Republicans virtually does away with the Prohibition
party as the Republican party has become the
champion Of temperance. For this reason many Of
the leaders Of the Prohibition movement or rather
demagogues OF that party, very much disgruntied
the turn affairs have taken as they see their
vision Of greatness fading rapidly away.
