In Memory.

Whereas; death lie inevitable
tate of all humanity, has come
and claimed another of earihs
good and great men in the per-
son Of VIM FL. Hagan. We are
now assembled to pay the last
tribute of respect to this beloved
brother. Brother Hagan was
born September 9rd,, 1888, and
died at his home near Fall River
Lawrence County Tennessee,
January 18th, 1892.
When the dreaded messenger
came it found him richly rrepar>
ed to obey the summons Of mis-
Heavenly Father. Judging from
the statement of his many
friends and his daily walks, Bro.
Hagar had long been a devout
christian.
He was e. me mber OF the M.
e. Church South. To lnculcate
upon good morals aud christian
rectltude, was one Of Bother
Hdgans noble characteristics,
and more especially was this
true respecting his own chill
dren.

The life of Brother Hagan was

while the old trumpeter or announcer Of
the ancient period stands in the midst
of the field and with his trum-
pet announces the result of the
contest. Forming border round the
neck of the cup is the inscription, "Uni-

body Of the cup is the Greek word Gath

and just beneath the field scene is palm

intimate friends, or even members Of
her family to inspect the building which
she will occupy shortly and which
she expects will be a surprise to every
one, as it is intended that it shall be
the handsomest cottage" in the United
States.
Hundreds Of thousands of dollars have
been expended in identifying the
grounds, and nature herself has been
overcome by the erection of an artificial
promontory, which projects for con-
siderable distance into the sea. The
main vestibule extends 81 feet in one
direction and 80 feet in the other. Its
walls and floor are of yellow marble.
This apartment is so feet high, and has
a balcony upon which the rooms of the
second story open, running entirely
around is The ceiling is divided into
panels by massive beams and is beauti-
fully fresceed. The dining room is on
the first floor and measures 4S by 30 feet.
The drawing room is Of the same size as
the dining room, and is on the opposite
side Of the vestihule. The walls of this
apartment are completely covered with
crystal and gold. The value of the
latter is said to be enough to build an
ordinary municipal building. The library

ments rival in magnifcence Aladdin's

tage" is such as is calculated to excite
the envy even Of the multimillionaires
who have summer homes at Newport.

While Mrs. Vanderbilt has been ex-
pending money and ingenuity on an out
Of town residence, Commodore Elbridge
T. Gerry has been devising means for
the erection Of the handsomest city home
in the United States. Work has already
been commenced on the building, which
wilE be. at the corner of Fifth avenue
and Sixty first street, next door to the
Metropolitan, better known as the Mil
ionaires' club. The house will be of
MARBLE. No wood at allwill be used,
as the beams will be of steel. The build
ing will be about 100 feet on Fifth av-
enue and IA feet on Sixty first street.
The Fifth avenue front of the building
will be given up to sumptuously ap-
pointed drawing rooms, and the re-
maindere Of the first floor will be occu-
pied by the dining room, picture gallery
and Commodore Gerry's law library and
"den."
Mrs. Gerry's apartments will take up
the entire space over the drawing rooms
Each Of the bedrooms will have a bath
and maids room adjoining. Besides the
commodore's study the third floor will
contain specially constructed room for
isolating any member of the family who
may be stricken down with a contagious
disease. The attic will be devoted to
twelve servants chambers, ranged about
o large central workroom. The building
will be deliberately decorated.

standing sixteen inches high, was made

A NOTORIOUS BODY.

A special from Washington City last
week to the San Francisco Examiner said:
"The house has reached point at which
it is ready for the filibustering disease.
Democrats will not admit it openly, but
many Of them are privately hankering for
Reeds rules. A quorum has been in at
tendance every day of the deadlock, and if
the car had been in the chair he would
haYe counted it and ended the play in
about three minutes from the time the cur
tainTose." When the history the house
just adjourned is written, it will be shown to
be the worst that ever assembled at the
national capital. "When it organized last
December" says the New York Recorder,
''the partisan democratic organs all over
the country hOwled for an investigation of
the corrupt departments Every branch
of the public service, they declared. was
stepped in 'raseality.' The interior depart
ment was a sink of iniquity.' The post
Office was run on the basest lines of parti-
sanship.' The Navy department was rot
ten The department of war was no
better. All the expletives in the diotion-
ary of partisan vituperation were dug out
and set in the biggest type before the
names of the leading officers of the admin
istration. A ruthless, sweeping investiga-
ton was demanded, and from ten to a
score of regular and special committees
were put on the trail of the republican
'rascals.' Well, eight months have passed
away. The democratic search light has
been thrown into every nook and corner of
the departments. Books have been over
hauled, pigeonholes ransacked; heads of
bureaus put on the rack; hundreds of wit
nesses examined; spies Intercepted; dis
missed clerks allowed to tell all they knew,
and what is the result2 Nothing! Ma
terial for campaign document worth
printing has not been discovered. The
Harrison officials have come unscathed
through the fires that were lighted to con
sumo them. Their democratic inquisitors
have failed to convict in single instance
But will the democratic organs retract their
lying charges of eight months ago2 Not a
bit of it. Partisan falsehood and vitupera-
ton form their whole stock in trade"
