(Reported for the Beacon

At st Inigo's Manor, on the Saint Mary's
river on Thursday evening of January &c,
about o'clock p. m, we were agreeably
surprised to see Steamer John I. Brady
coming in our midst regardless of ice from
3 20 12 inches thick.
Great indeed was our delight and an xiety
in watching the Steamer accomplish what
some predicted would be impossible. AS
she drew nearer many of our neiehbors
soon gathered in groups on both sides of
the shore 10 welcome and salute this un-
usual visitor by waving hankerchiefs and
firing guns; which were Immediately res
pended TO by several loud shrill whistles.
Then more than ever anxious so watch
her progress, we walked out on the ice and
for some moments stood admiring the
courage of brave Captain Lambin and his
gallant crew.
However not fully satisfied with our
romantic trip we ventured out still farther
towards the approaching steamer, and when
within few yards one of her pleasant crew
came 10 meet US and extended cordial
invitation TO come on board and enjoy a
short ride and the novelty of the occasion,
which may occur only once during u life
time. And soon we were being Hospitality
entertained by Captain Lambin and others
whom We shall long remember with high
esteem. Among those who met and went
to board the steamer were: Mr.. and Mrs.
Edgar Rai!ey, Miss Annie G. Railey, Mrs.
Mamie V. Guy, Master Redmond Guy
and John Abel. Mr. Kennady, Of Rose
Croft, also met the steamer. And now
Messrs Editors when you again hear of
some one walking on ice to the middle of
a river 10 meet an advancing steamer let
your correspondent hear from you.
Wishing that the steamer. John I Brady,
Captain and crew may always meet with
rs much success as on last Thursday even
ing, am respectfully, A. ].

MOrtuary.
"A Mother in krdel has gone to her rerdrd."
The death of Mrs. Eliza Hayden has
taken from our midst one of the brightest
ornaments of Christian piety. She died
on the morning of the Goth of January. al
"Savona," her home, near Chaptico, ia
the seventy ninth year of her age.
The writer had slight acquaintantance
with her in her school DAYS, while she was
attending boarding school kept by Miss
Eliza Doyle at in 1881, of which school
two Of his sisters were pupils. From them
he learned of her valuable traits of char
acter and lovable disposition. A subse-
quent better and long acquaintance with
her confirmed the high estimate Of her
traits Of character in her girlhood, and
throughout her long, benevolen, and useful
life. If any further evidence of the high
estimate in which she was held, in the
varied relations of Christian life were
needed it was amply attestcd by the i'm
mense attendance of mourners and friends
n: her funeral Funeral services were held
in Christ church, Chaptco, January 23rd,
by Revs Sothoron and Braddock.
Her remains We're borne by the loving
hands Of her sons and sons in laws to their
last resting place in the churchyard close
ly followed by her greatly distressed child
rem, grand children, friends and many old
family servants.
Pages might be written in commenda-
ton and commemoration of the Christian
virtues and deeds of the deceased. But
they will live in the memories OF those
who knew her best, and children yet I'M
born will be taught to revere her memory,

CRAFTY

New York, Sept. 11-Ways that are
dark and TRICKS that are vain distinguish
the nimble Chinaman as strongly to-day
as they did when Bret Harte recorded
his startling discovery in graphic verse.
In these days, however, or at least in
New York, the Cclestials have a bigger
game on and the manner in which they
play it is we'll nigh beyond detection
The game is smuggling Chinese laborers
who are excluded under the Geary act,
So well are the Chinese planning the
game that the provisions of the exclusion
act against the entrance of the Gelestials
are practically untitled, for in nine cases
out of ten those seeking admittance arr
able to pass the ordeal of rigid examina'
tons and investigations.
