OH, MY REPUTATION!
DEFENDING HIS CHARACTER.
EEis Actions Create Much Talk.
Receiving Praise From a Crittcis-
tng Public.

The interest of many unfortunate
people of this and the surrounding
counties have recently been tied in a
peculiar knot by the loose and corrupt
management of money affairs, and the
actions Of those who have had full
control of other peoples financial mat
ters have been thoroughly criticised.
But there are two subjects that will
stand comment from a criticising
public who are the most difficult to
please. The first subject is "char-
acter," and the next "My word
and representations" Since the COM
mencement Of the great talked-of Odd
and End Sacrifice Sale many hum
dreds have been thoroughly convinced
that in spite of the reputation Mr.
Louis Fellheimer, proprietor OF the
famous Economy Hail." enjoys for
selling clothing at small profit that
dozens of odds and ends can be pur-
chased at a sacrifice. The gentlsman's
reputation for selling goods just as
represented has become the town talk,
and the public may depend on obtain
ing unheard of bargains in clothing by
patronizing the deserving proprietor
of the above famous house, 406 Market
st. 1t will be well to mention in con-
nection with this article that money
invested with the Economy Hall''
assures full returns.

Emperor Fredcrlck,s Health.

BERLIN, March 20.-Emperor Freder-
ick appeared at window Of the Char
lottenburg palace in undress uniform,
yesterday, and was heartily cheered.
The Emperor will present to DR.. Mac
kenzie gracious autograph letter with
tho imperial decoration which he in
tends to bestow upon him..
The formal declaration Of amnesty is
delayed, but the persons who are to be
pardoned are being liberated in order
that they may be with their families
at Easter.
The address OF the women Of Berlin TO
Empress Victoria is being so numcr-
ously signed that it affords convincing
proof that the majority oppose the un.
worthy gossip that has been circulated
concerning her.
The engagement of the Russian doc
tor, Zabludovski, to apply the massage
treatment to Emperor Frederick, was by
the advice OF Professor Bergman. His
employment is leading TO similar re-
marks among the people to those applied
to DR.. Mackenzie.
Prince Luitpold, Regent Of Bavaria,
will place, at his own expense, n mOnu
ment to the late Emperor in the Wal
halla, near RatisboDe.
The KrettE Zeitung hears that 1t is like
ly that Emperor Frederick's accession to
the throne will lead to the erection OF an
Independent Prussian Protestant bish-
opric OF Jerusalem.

Shr Wants 100000 TO Meet Expenses of
Her Coming Marriage.
NV YoRx, March 29.-Dayid Hawley,
executor OF the estate OF Isaac NJ. Singer,
has received letter from Isabelle
Blanche Singer, who is in Paris, asking
him to request the court to allow her
the sum Of 100000 to meet the expenses
'Gi her coming marriage with the Due
Decazes.
Miss Singer is one of the six children
OF Isaac Singer, the sewing machine
manufacturer, by his third and latest
Surviving wife. He died in England in
$50, leaving a fortune of about SlS,OOO,-
OOO, aud three wives. There was q con-
test OTer the estate, which ended in n
decision that the third was his lawful
wife, and eatitlGd to the money. She is
now the DuGhesse Dc Camposelic and
has resided in Paris with her daughter
Isabelle since 1875.
Miss Singer is 10 years old and is to be
married April %. Due Decazes belongs
TO one OF the oldest families in France,
but hasnO fortune. Miss Singer is worth,
however, about u million and half,
which Mr.. Hawley says, "is set apart for
her sole and separate use, free from. the
interference or control Of any husband
she may marry" Her willingness to pay
the marriage expenses, however, is taken
as an indication by hOr friends in this
city that she will not let her husband
want Tor pocket money.

Chief Justice which hangs on the wal
also bore appropriate mourning EN-
blems. Shortly afterwards the door
were opened to admit the enormous
throng Of friends and citizens which
packed the adjacent street. The cadets
were on duty to maintain proper order
and to keep the line moving as rapidly
as circumstances would permit.
So dense was the throng OF people
eager to take last look ut the revered
dead that it was impossible at times for
the street cars to force passage. The
doors were closed at 2:45 and many
thousands were disappointed in obtain
ing view Of the remains. The casket
was inclosed, and removed to the chan
eel OF the church adjoining. The chan
eel, pulpit, and stalls for the choristers
were heavily draped in black. The lac
turn bore a magnificent wreath OF lilies,
sent from Washington.
At the left Of the pulpit was bank Of
flowers with the motto, "Final Decree" "
which was sent by the. surviving mem
bers OF the Supreme Court. The family
pew Of the Waites, which he occupied
lOr so many years, was DeaullIully deco
rated with calla lilies and draped in
black, 1t was set apart for the use Of
the mourners during the funeral SER
vices.
Shortly after the body Of the Chief
Justice was takeninto Trinity church, the
doors were opened, and the distinguish
ed guests entered the church in body
and were seated on either side OF the
main aisle.
The service in the church consisted OF
the regular funeralservices Of the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church, and were very
impre i've. The music was rendered
by the well trained male choir, all at
tired in the beautiful white surplice. AT
the conclusion OF the regular service
Rev. DR.. II. B. Walbridge, a former rec.
tor Of Trinity Church and now OF New
York City delivered a fitting address
that was very impressive. After the
services at the church, the remains
were placed in the hearse and the pro-
cession formed and wended its silent
way to Forest Cemetery. d.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, March 2oD-Anoth-
er party OF conductors and brake
men from the Reading system
passed through the city this
morning enroute to Chicago, to enter
the employ OF the Chicago, Burlington
& Quincy Railroad. They were all
Knights Of Labor and said they were
determined to go to work ON the 90"
no matter what order the general exec
tive board might issue to the contrary.
"My opinionis," said one of the leaders
OF the party, "bOth strikes are lost, the
Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers
has made a dismal failure OF the fight on
the Burlington route, and SO have the
Knights on the Reading. 1t is plainly
evident that the Philadelphia & Reading
officials do not propose to recognize the
strikers at all, and II is equally evident
that the Burlington road can be opera
ted without the Brotherhood, As for
the knights OF Labor, who are leaving
the East and going West, they are com.
PEELED 10 do SO in their self.detense.
Driven out OF their positions by the
Brotherhood, they find it impossible to
get work on any Eastern line.
