In Memoriam.



Among the tombs of many of the friends
who had known and loved her in life, IN the
beautiful city of the dead at Crown Hill,the
mortal remains of the wife of BEN amin
Harrison were yesterday tenderly laid To rest
by the sorrowing friends and neighbours who
bad known her during the long years of her
residence in Indianapolis. The request
of the grief-strickcn husband that the final
services attending the burial of his beloved
wife be simple and free from ostentatious
display was respected, and they were
marked By their brevity and simplicity
The esteem in which the devoted wife, the
loving mother and the unselfish friend was
held by the community in which the greater
portion of her life was spent was everywhere
manifested in the gentless manner, and
the evidence of respectful sympathy and
sincere sorrow shown by the people of the
old home city will go further than all else,
except the abiding faith IN the Redeemer
of mankind, TO mitigate the poignant grief
of those bereft. Here among those friends,
enshrined in their hearts because of her
virtue and true womanly qualities, Mrs.
Harrison sleeps, to know no further cali
until there comes the final summons and
the great awakening.

Reports Of the cotton mills al Fall River
made Dct. 81 show the most extraordinary
mill earnings ever made public despite The
fact that the mills have been running -
hours per geek instead OF 80 and paying an
advance Of 3 Ii per cent. in wages. Twenty
eight corporations, operating ~ mills
capitalized at sl5T7s 900, have paid ont in
div .dends 500 -. or little more than
2. 80 per cent In the corresponding quar-
ter Of last year - corporations. operating
81 mills, pail an average Of only LIZ per
cent. These disuioads represent only the
comparative prosperity of the mills, as
much of the earnings are being turned into
a depreciation or surplus fund. Nearly
all Of the mills have expended considerable
sums in Improvements, and few of them
have burtiensome debts. While this state
ment is remarkable, some Of the most pros
porous corporations IN that city have not yet
made their quarterly reports. The above
is in striking contrast to the condition of
one year ago, when last year at this time a
cut in wages was being discussed by those
same companies. Such prosperity is al
most unparalleled in American Industrial
history.
