ing deprived of 4 true and faithful COM
paniOn and friend, both in joy ana sorrow.
Mr. Hess was & true and devoted hus-
baud: he was rs kind and tender a father
as ever lived: a noble and self-denYing
brother, and righteous man in the com
munity: his cheerful spirit manifested
itself in his smiling face, which even death
could not take away from him. and with
which be brought life and sunshine where
ever he went
His death creates not only void and IT.
reparable loss in his own much esteemed
and beloved family, but il is felt through
out the city and vicinity among the various
denominations. many OF whom gave evil
dence Of this the day of his funeral.
We offer our deepest sympathy to the be-
reft family, and we pray that God may
send them consolation and comfort to bear
the visitations and trials Of tho world with
calm and pious resignation, as il behoOves
true Christians. lt was

THE Corsicsh Brothers. As Louis and

The story of this play IS that OF two broth

closely that il IS almost impossible 10 tell

iect of their affections suddenly departs for
Paris with her father and there marries u

infancy. The brother Louis, as Fabien is
unwilling, also starts for Paris, oStensibly
to become an advocate but really 10 be
near Emile On his arrival in Paris
he learns of her marriage, but this does not
interfere with their past friendship. The
husband being obliged 10 leave France, he
asks Louis TO be the wife's protector dur
ing his absence. The wife, who is a good
and pure woman. becomes entangled with
noted roue. Chateau Remand, and to save
her honor Louis challenges her wOuld-be
traducer. aud in the duel chat follows is
morally wounded kabien, the other
brother through the bond Of spiritual sym
Dathv that binds them together, knows
what has happened TO Louis, and swears
to avenge him. Five days afterward he
overtakes Chateau Renaud in the forest Of

kills him. In the last act Louis appears TO
his brother Fabien, and the curtain falls
with the reunion OF the brothers

is JOE EMMETT DEADa
If So, Who Was the Mysterious Passenger
on the r. r. V. the Other Day?

III So, Who was tn q M ygterfOuS Passenger
on the r. r. v. the Other Day?
A Washington gentleman who left New
York on the +. F. V. train one evening last
week had curious experience. Entering the
dining car as the train drew out of Jersey
City, he took a seat, and began to scan the
bill of fare to select his dinner. A waiter
hurriedly approached, and politely informed
him that the seat he had taken was already
engaged. SO the gentleman took seat at
another table, and the waiter explained that
the other seat was reserved for Mr.. Emmett.
''What Mr.. Emmet?' the gentleman asked.
''Why, MIR. Joe Emmett, the actor" the waiter
promptly replied. The Wasaingtonian smiled.
"But Emmett has been dead for six weeks,''
he answered. $50 had heard, SIR" said the
waiter, ''and never was more surprised In
my life than when he came on the train to-
day. have known Mr.. Emmett for years,
and have often waited on him at dinner.n
The Washington man was puzzled at the
walters story, but came to the conclusion, of
course, that 1t was case of mistaken
identity, or else some man who resembled
Emmet was playing hoax on the train hands.
"You are sure them" he resumed, 'sthat the
the waiter answered. ''To make sure asked
him If he wasn't Mr.. Emmett and he said yes.
He is In the next car now, taking drink of
whisky" This, the Washington man thought,
was strong bit of coroborative evidence.
just then the dining car conductor came in
and the Washington man asked him II he had
known Joe Emmett. "Yes, sir; he is in the
next car now," was the conductors prompt
answer. "But Joe Emmett is dead and
buried aud his will has even been probated,n
said the now thoroughly interested and
puzzled Wasbingtonian. "Yes, / saw In the
papers that he died,n answered the CON
ductor, ''and told him so to-day when he
came on the train. He only laughed about 1t
and said it was mistake. Pm sure he is
Emmett, for / have known him we'll for
years. Come and look at him In the next
car" The puzzled Washington man fol
lowed the conductor to the door OF the next
car. There, sure enough, was a man who
looked very much like Emmett as the
Washingtonian remembered him. He was
about Emmet's age, clean shaVen, but hts
hair was rather lighter than Emmets had been.
The Washington man went back to his dinner
more puzzled than ever.
