held in the meeting house, Friend
William Way preaching a funeral
sermon on the occasion. The deceas-
ed was buried in a mahogany coffin,
made by his own hands, several
years ago, and of the old style pat
tern. About five years before his
death he gave up business, having
yielded to the intirmties of age, laid
down the craftsman's tools and

the blooming month of May, amid
flowers and green leaves, loving
hands laid him away in the silent
city of the dead where he had helped
to lay thousands who had fallen
before.
Many of the recognized authorities in
civil as well as military circles say, "The
malarial disease is most dangerous in that
the kidneys are most liable to break down.
Such men as Dacosta, Atkinson and Pepper,
professors in our leading medical schools,
and Soldaton, Surgeon Gen. in the Russian
army, Woodward, Surg. Gen. in our Amer
lean ARMY. speak of malaria as direct COM
plication of chronic Brights disease. 4he
kidneys must be kept free from disease and
the poisonous germs of malaria; they must
act normally in cleansing the blood, for 65
gallons Of it passes through them every
hour. People in malarial localities recover
from both the cause and effect of malaria by
using Warmers Safe Cure. Every person,
in the spring or fall, who has either kidney
disease or malaria, should use Warmers
Safe Cure as precautionary measure.

hours until we got the cipher message from
Father Dorney, which meant, Il arrived

"NIr. Patrick Ford was informed of all
the facts, because there was unqualified
confidence in him, and il was realized that
some emergency might arise which would
make 1t necessary to communicate with or
ask some aid from resident of New York.
Since then we who knew the facts have
been jubilant. But each of us had to flock
by himself, and celebrate in solitude, fear
full that single word might be,ray our
knowledge. We knew the British Gov
eminent and the Times were Joined in

had bribed villain TO forge letters, and
that II they learned this work had become
useless they would bride other villains to

Commenting upon the Robinson letter,
the New York correspondent OF the Gin
cinnati Enquirer says
Zone OF the men about New York who
is well known is John NJ. Guiteau. Ills
name has brought him into no little uoto-
riety and has been great detrimcnt to
him in his profession OF attorney, although
he is no relation whatever OF the assassin
who made it Infamous Mr.. Gutcau's
abilities have been recognized among those
who know him MS OF the highest order, and
his nature is both strong and lovable. lie
is a member of number OF clubs, but the
New York Yacht Club sees him within its
portals more than any other, As an at
torney he has charge OF the settlement Of
the Bogardus estate, which has brought
into his HANDS Tie document printed be-
low, which is believed to hc the first
announcement that was made in this
city forty years ago OF the death OF
Con. William Henry Harrison, the grand
father of Prcsident-elect Harrison, who
was then President OF the Onltcd States.
The letter was sent TO Gen. Robert Bo-
gardus as the commander Of New York
troops, and he was altcrward placed in
charge OF the funeral pageant. The in
dorsemcnt on the back OF the letter, which
had no envelope, but was sealed in the
old fashioned manner, shows that the let
ter was sent TO Baltimore TO DO mailed,
where it was postmarked April ., and did
not reach New York until the following
day, the 9TH. This slowness OF commune
cation, rs well as the allusion in the letter
TO the fact that there were no Sunday
papers, gives u vivid glimpse OF that period.
There is further view Of the situation
politically in the reference TO what Mr..
Tyler was expected TO do.
