OBITUARY.

Nothing touches the sympathy more,
or recalls happier days Of one, than the
thoughts of a departed friend True
it is, In the midst Of life we are in
death" This simple, but effective
text is being illustrated in our midst
almost daily, and yet how many heed
it. Another illustration confronts us
in the death, this time, of a young
man. One, intellectually, bright and
promising morally, beyond reproach ;
spiritually, believer in and worshiper
of his Maker. Charles D. Grimm. :
A young man of high and noble
aspiration has been called from our
midst to fill, perhaps, a position higher
than he could ever have attained here.
In such case, no enc can speak more
candidly and effectively than an EN-
ployer. For some time prior to the
publication ofTHE WORLD, Mr.. Grimm
filed the position of a clerk and stu
dent with the editor, in the legal pro-
fession, with marked success and in a
most deserving and creditable way.
He also rendered valuable service in
placing this plant in operation. He
was always willing and at his post of
duty, and nothing could be said to his
detriment. No one has had better
opportunities to know of and judge his
good qualities than the writer, when he
can say that this young man knew as
much about his business affairs as he
did himself, both in his profession and
newspaper, and never had he known
or heard Of him betrayfng the conf
dence reposed in him in any possible
way and felt perfectly safe with his
business in-his hands.
He was a regular attendant both at
his church and Sunday-school, and IN
the latter held trusted positions, with
credit and ability. When quite young
he connected himself with the NJ. T..
Church, of this city, and up to the time
Of his sad death continueda consistent
member.
His departure recalls many happy
thoughts, as well as pleasant recollec-
tons and to the bereaved and affiict-
edfamily We extend our warmest sympa-
thy, commencing them to their Father
and Protector above.

Thomas McHugh, aged II years, son
of Lawrence McHugh, superintendent of
the Dougherty Towing Company OF Bal

o'clock on Saturday morning at Long
Bridge over Back crack, Chesapeake

his footing and fell backward into
the water He was first seen
struggling in the water by small boy
who gave the alarm. His body was not
recovered until an hour sfterward. A
large cash was found over his right eye,

THAT PROTESTED CHECK.
How Mcwhorter's Accouat Was Caught
when 1t Was Good"


The Sunday Star yesterday printed q
sensational yarn tending to convey the
impression that the business manager OF
the EVENING JOURNAL had received
money on worthless check, and stated
also that the account for which the check
was given, was paid twice. this latter
proposition being so decidedly original as
TO become ludicrous to the many who
know the difficulty of receiving payment
even once from Charles II. McWhorter.
The facts in the matter are thai.
repeated dunning for the account, in
June 1890, Nc Whorter gave his note for
$50 90, payable at the Farmers Bank
when that note became due McWhorter
gave another note; when the second note
became due McWhorter wanted to beg off
again, but being closely pressed gave his
check dated shead-the check in question
with the understanding that the note
was to be taken up and the check used
when its date came around When the
check was presented for payment there
was no money to meet it aud, after re-
peated efforts TO cash the check st the
bank, it was given TO Il. G. Robinson for
the purpose Of having it protested and
complaint made to the chancellor, as
another daily newspaper was forced 10 do
to get money due them This turn in
the affair very much worried McWhor-
ter and he begged off again; then he be.
came i'll and the matter could not be
pressed until he was out again. Finally
on July 10, the EVENING JOURNAL mana
ger learned that McWhorter's account
was good, the check was presented and
the bank paid IT,
The Stars article was conceived and
published in malice, and the statement
that q search was instituted for the
EVENING JOURNALS manager is untrue,
as he was at his home frem o'clock
Saturday afternoon and inquiry at the
EVENING JOURNAL office would have
reached him
