DIR, Edwin Haryle smith--Isis.reo

A good man, en old citizen, one full OF
years aud ripe for the change, has iust
passed from amongst us.
DR.. Edwin Harvie Smith, at the advanced
age of three-score and seventeen years,
most OF which were actively and usetullv
spentin our midst, quietly, peacefully, and
almost imperceptibly entered into the new
life, whereof this body Of death" Is the
prelude, on the evening Of April 22d, nc 10
O'clock. Surrounded by q host OF loving
hearts and tended By gentle hands he
passed away so gradually and so quietly
that 1t was almost impossible TO marx the
end.
DR.. Smith was in appearance and 10 the
casual acquaintance plain, unobtrusive,
and ordinary man, but to those 20 whom
he was intimately known and who could
understand and appreciate him no re-
vealed rare combination OF highly meri-
torious and characteristic traits.
Descended from long line OF ancestry
famous in the social and political history
OF our country, from whom flowed into
his being thousand rivulets OF decided
and characteristic personalities combined
with highly-cultivated intelligence and
strong will, his life was directed by q lofty
sense Of moral obligation.
He Is survived bya few OF the compsns
ions Of his boyhood and early manhood, al
Of whom have ever cherished for him tbs
highest esteem. His gentle disposition,
conclliatory manner and equable temper
made him often an ArbNerltas among his
schoolmates andgave him great popularity;
and his life has been consistent with the
promise of his youth.
These traits accompanied him through
life, and were no less conspicuous In biz
public career wherein his services, profes.
sional, Official, administrative, and legisls-
tive, were ever marked by the strictess In
tegrity and fidelity 10 trust.
But while faithful 10 temporal obitgn-
tions, he was not unmindful OF the higher
and more permanent Interests and obligs-
tons pertaining to him Is rational being
and moral agent.
ONLY a few days before tho mower Of
speech was lost 10 him the writer was con.
yersing with him on the subject OF per.
sonal God and tho power OF eommunin2
with Him spiritually, quoting the lines %
England's poet-laureate
asoeak 20 him, thou, for lie heaEsth, and spir!s
with spirit can meet.
Closer Is He than breathing, nearer than hands
and feet
when bis eyes frightened MP IS he ex-
claimed, "Yes, have no doubt Of that.
and nothing can take trom me the conyic-
ton that can commune ia spirit with God.
and that he will and does hear those who
seek him with proper spirit. He was Q
COMMUNICATE Of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, and died true to the filth Of his
fathers.
With him disappears another 81 the few
links remaining that connect the present
with the days in which the prestige of the
patriarchs OF our country was still power
ful with our people. After lies 6tfui
fever he sleeps well.n Farewell, companies
Of my boyhoodl IA rseoir.

THE "JAcK-rHe-RlppeRn VICTIM.
The Autopsy conciaded-Ths Murderer
Not Arrested.

NEw YoRK. April 25.-Deputy. Coroner
Jenkins concluded the autopsy on the re-
mains of the "Jack-the-Ripper victim
this afternoon. The only development OF
Importance was the disclosure that the
mutations were evidently made while tho
woman still lived, and 1t was apparent
that the struggles of the poor wretch pre-
vented the butcher from fully completing
what he originally intcnded--the removal
of certain organs, which bad been par
tally detached and torn but not removed
as in the case of the whitechapel murders.
II was not possible, the Coroner said, to
determine whether death resulted from
straneulation or from the other wounds
inflicted.
Inspector Byrnes tonight made state.
ment 60 the reporters to the effect that
while the police have not vet arrested the
murderer of the woman at tho East River
Hotel they know who he is and hope to
have him in custody before long.

president of his company Thursday an
nouncing that he would not go down to
the Office yesterday, and telling him what
should be done. His death was instanta-
neous. Lewis had been IN poor health for
some two months, suffering from insom-.

his room the Coroner was greatly surprised
to find box containing $4,000 IN one
corner of It, which could not be accounted
for. Tha family of the suicide could not
imagine how he had SO much money, as he
was supposed to be in very moderate CIR
cumstances. The money was discovered
last night to belong TO the city railroad.
The president of the company thinks that
Lewis took the money while Temporarily

the Russian Ambassador. NJ. Nelidof. in
regard to the detention by the Ottoman
authorities on April 18th, in the Dardanelles
