In Memory of Ira Wcimer.

In Memory OF Ira W elmer.
His busy hands are folded now,
His kind, true heart at rest
His gentle spirit has gone above
10 dwell among the blest.
For Just and true he always was
To everyone he met,
And we who loved him best of all
His worth can ne'er forget.
His pleasant smile no more We'll see
Nor hear his voice now stllled;
A place Is vacant in our home
That never can be tilled
His busy brain is resting now;
His days Of toll are DER;
May heavens light upon his brow
Shine on the other shore.
No balm can heal our wounded hearts
In this sad hour Of pain,
For hevermore, by night or day,
Can we call HIM back again,
His parents oft with tears will stand
Beside his grave for hours;
His friends devoted, hand in hand,
Will strew his bed with flowers.
But he will sleep so sweetly there,
For that to him is given;
'Twere wrong to shed one mourntul tear,
For such find rest in heaven.
A FRIEND.

placed implicit confidence in the
Water committee, and he knew that
others beside Council did the same.
J. B. Oder did not elect and could not
remove him.
Mr.. Wittig claimed to have been
misrepresented in Council; his motions
had been misconstrued, and not week
passed but the ''picture on the walF'
was referred to. Denounced j. B.
Oder as rebel, etc.
Mr.. Lammert thought work could
not be completed for the same money
if Mr.. Wittig resigns.
Mr.. Gunnett-That is what they were
working for-to get Mr.. Wittig to
resign He (GunnetD would not graft
fly them he had been abused, but had
stood it.
Mr.. Lammert took up where he left
off and said Mr.. Wittig's resignation
would please them too much and he
did not think Mr.. Wittig owed them
that much pleasure.
Mr.. Witig-J. B. Oder has been
fighting me for J | months-ever since
| made the motion to collect the
amount due by ex-Treasurers, and
because it struck a particular friend
of his. That is the reason he is fight
ing me.
The discussion here changed by the
Bailiff coming on the tragic scene and
stating that he knew every case of
spinal disease in town and they meyer
exceeded II cases at one time. He
wanted to correct statement Of 0O
cases also about the disease arising
from use of the new water, and enum-
Grated cases that did not use the new
water.
Mr.. Lammert thought anyone who
says that the disease arises from the
use of the new water does it to boom the
old water company's stock.
The motion to lay Mr.. Wittig's
resignation on the table was carried.
Adjourned.

Run Down by q Team.

Henry Lewis informs the JOURNAL
that two drunken men, driving on the
fiat Monday, ran down his son, David
H. Lewis. The latter is very deaf,
was returning from his days work,
and, not hearing the vehicle, was run
down, got under the horses feet, was
trampled, bruised and skin rubbed off
in a number of places. He came near
being killed or injured for life. MI.
Lewis, the father, is naturally very
indignant. Even if his son were in
the usual track, the road is amply
wide for driving around him. He asks
is there any law against such dan
gerous recklessness? If not, there
ought to be.

We dumbly sat and watch d where thou hadst
All animate with life's most precious wine,
To find at length marble cast, chserd by
But heaven and peace at last art thine.
At her residence. Kansas City, Mo,
Tuesday morning, April Is, 1893, Mrs.
Maggie Naomi Stark, wife of W. w.
Stark, and sister of the editor of this
paper, aged 36 years, , months and IS
days.
Mrs. Stark had been ill for long
time. There were fluctuations of
Improvement, but the general trend
was steadily unfavorable. The last
few weeks developed the climacteric
period, and for days those around her
were prepared for the inevitable.
Not only so. Conscious Of the sit
uation herself, she made her DISPOSE
tons with her customary intelligence
and composure and died leaving no
wish unexpressed. For the sake of her
husband and infant daughter and son
she had fondly hoped to live, but
Providence having ordered otherwise,
she confidently committed them to
His care and fell asleep believing i'm
plicitly in the final restoration of
every broken tie.
Mrs. Stark was lady of strong in
tellectual resources. Her mathemat-
zeal requirements were far beyond the
womanly average, aud her rhetorical
judgment and taste were well nigh
perfect. She was a reader who learned
as she read and, like true pupils, seem
ed always afraid she would be account
ed a scholar.
Her untimely death is an occasion
of keen sorrow to all her friends
1t was one of her requests that Rev.
DR.. Neal, Of the Central Presbyterian
church, preach her funeral at the resi-
dence-a wish which was eloquently
and touchingly complied with at y
o'clock Thursday afternoon.
Died.
Mrs. Susan j. Ryan, relict of the
late John Ryan, Baltimore's veteran
type-founder, died Sunday evening
last at the residence of her son-in law,
DR.. Mordecai Price, in Philadelphia.
The funeral took place at her resi-
dence in Baltimore Wednesday after
noon. Her husband was one of the
worlds christian noblemen and she
was worthy Of his choice and devotion.
The JOURNAL enjoyed many times
their elegant hospitality, and from
first to last it retained their warm
concern. In the album of its friends,
therefore, their names are preceded by
but few.

There has been two events in the

that rebellion. This could have oc-
Cured in no other country and no.

other event occurred the other day
in Chicago. They had congress Of
religions. The Catholics and Prot

Buddhists, they were all in conclave
together. There was no A p Aism
there. Applause.

OLD FORD THEATRE.
History of the Building in Which the Ca
lamity Occurred.

Alstory Oh building III WhlNh tho SA-
lamity Occurred.
WASHINGTON, y, G., June 9,-The
building which was wrecked to-day was
the army medical museum, 1t was
originally the old Tenth street Baptist
church. It was medium-slzed struo-
ture and was painted white, About
forty years ago the Ford Brothers, Of
Baltimore, purchased the property and
transformed 1t into a theatre.
The interior was entirely removed,
but tho old walls were lett standing. 1t
was used as play house until several
years later, when it was destroyed by
fire, The Fords then built a spacious
brick theatre on the site OF the old
building, 1t was in this theatre that
President Lincoln was assassinated on
the Good Friday night Of 1865 by John
Wilkes Booth. After this event the
government closed tho theatre and fl
nally bought the property for about
$l50,000. Again tho interior OF the
structure was Femodelled, and adapted
to the use OF the surgeon general. The
museum proper occupied the three
floors OF the building. While 1t was
originally established for the purpose
Of investigating the wounds and dis
cases incidental to war, its scope has
broadened so rapidly that 1t lately in
cluded all interesting objects Of medi-
cal and surgical study,
It was said to be the only museum OF
its kind in the world. Labor and money
had been expended on it to an almost
unlimited extent. There were no less
than $4,000 specimens arranged with
care and system within the walls OF the
museum.
The second floor OF the building con-
tanned the medical library OF the gov
ernment, q library which was said to
contain more medical literature than
the British museum, or the national
library OF France. The entire building
was usually filled with force OF clerks
and officers examining and compiling
the records pertaining to tho judicial
and hospital department OF the army.
A strange coincidence is that tho old
theatre is wrecked on tho day Of the
funeral of Edwin Booth, brother OF John
Wilkes Booth,
