NARROWING PARTICULARS OF THE
DEATH or (. D.
GRIMM.



Mr.. John H. Grimm arrived IN the
city this morning at FIVE O'clock, with
the remains Of his son Charles d.
Grimm, who was killed near Pitts

The particulars Of his death are har-
rowing in the extreme, and about as
follows: AZ was stated yesterday
Charley had been unable TO secure en-
ployment in Pittsburg, and being 81
an active and ambitious nature, and
not contented when idle, he sought
and procured position as brakeman
on the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and West
ern Railway. The work was not ex-
actly suited to his taste, but he choose
II in preference to waiting for some
thing better 10 turn up. He Ind made
one trip, and given satisfaction, and
was making his second when the acct
dent occurred which terminated in his
death. He was acting as forward
brakeman, and was on car near the
engine, when freight train running
ahead separated and the rear portion
running back on q steep grade collided
with the train on which Charlie was
working.
In the crash he was thrown beneath
q box ear Of matches which took Are
and was destroyed. A more horrible
death could not be imagined Ms the
remains when discovered amid theash-
es were almost completely cremated.
There were only few bones remain
| ing and they were taken to the under
takers in box.
In accordance with the announcement
made at the regular Wednesday night
prayer meeting which the deceased al
ways attended. The funeral took place
from the First NJ. e. Church this after
moons The interment was at Green
Hill Cemetery.

COMPROMISED THE mArrEn.

For some time the neighborly rela-
tons between Patrick Casey and Mich

pleasantest character. Yesterday Pat
rick and his wife Molly were present in
Justice Bartletts court room under d
peace warrant, while at the same time
under similar warrant sworn out by
Mr.. and Mrs. Casey, Mr.. Monaghan
was required to appear before Squire
Mckee. Patrick and his wife were
represented by Stewart W. Walker and
J. N. Wisnkr championed Mr.. Mona
ghan's side Of the case. Although the
difficulty had been brewing for quite d
while the lawyers succeeded in getting
the parties to compromise the matter
and return to their homes with the de-
termination Of living in peace and har-
mony.

Especial to THE woRLD.l
RICHMOND, VA, Nov. 10. Mrs. JEFF
ferson Davis and her daughter, Miss
Winnie, left the city to-day for Mem,
phis, Tenn. The Richmond Despatch
tomorrow in an editorial, on Mrs.
Davis, will say "The Southern States
ought to vote pension to Mrs. Jeffer-
son Davis, and Virginia should lead
the movement. 1t is nothing but fair
and proper that we should put her
upon the same footing the United
States government places the widow Of
its presidents. The duty devolves
upon the States that composed the con-
federacy, as the confederacy is thing
of the past. 1t cannot be a very cost
ly precedent for us, inasmuch as there
never will be another confederacy, and,
therefore, never another widow Of a

received his early education in the
public schools under Prof. Houseworth
and also received instruction in Ger
man under Pro. Keedy in a private
school where Turner Hall nov stands.
Later he attended the Third Ward
School under Prof. Gerhardt. When
16 years Of age, Mr.. Wilen having
completed his schooling entered the
hardware store Of Mr.. w. w. Crump,
where he remained one year after
which he started to learn the cabinet
makers trade under his father, William
Wilen. In 1878 he removed to Balti-
more and for 10 years he was engaged
in the furniture business, first with
George Beck and later with Morton D.
Banks. Much of his time was spent
travelling in the interest Of these firms.
In 1883 he could not resist the tempta-
ton Of returning to his old home. He
first engaged in the furniture business
in the st. Clair Hotel and from there
removed to his more commodious ware
rooms on North Queen street, where
he still carries on an extensive bust
ness. Mr.. Wien is and always has
been staunch republican. but has
never taken any active interest in poll
tics as his business required his entire
time and attention. He has always
shown himself to be public spirited
citizen, and enters without hesitation
into anything that win advance the
interests Of this community.
