1t was through no fear of misconduct on
the part of the visiting knights or any OF
their friends that committee on public order
was appointed. There are always crowds of
toughs and pckpockets in the vicinity whom
any large assemblies gather. and it was to
protect the strangers and citizens of Wash
ington as well. that it was thought best to
have such committee whose duty it shall be
to see that tho Commissioners and chief OF
police have a sufficient number OF police and
detectives on duty in order to prevent as
much wrong doing as possible.
Mr.. ]. Harrison Johnson is chairman of the
public order committee and he has assured
the citizens that everything in his power will
be done to preserve peace and good order.
When $1,000 Knights of the Uniform Rank
march in columns of fours over the broad as
/ pbalt surface of Pennsylvania avenue they
| will not be alone. One thousand and five
hundred troops of the District of Columbia
| National Guard and 500 of Uncle Sans peace
warriors have been selected to do duty as an
| escort brigade. The Washington boys will
| precede Gen. Carnaban and his army in the
| line of march and it is due to Gen. Ordway,
who is chairman of the committee on escort,
| to say the local soldiers will do their level
best to make this the best display of the kind
ever witnessed in the Capital. Brig. Gen.
Albert Ordway has been commander of the
District of Columbia National Guard brigade
ever since the organization of that body sew
eral years ago and there Is not more popu-
lar and proud military commander in the
United States.
He has right to be proud. FOR under his
control are two ofthe best-drilled militia COM
panies in the country-the National Fencibles,
who won the recent interstate company drill
at Little Rock, Ark, and the Emmet Guards,
winner of first prize in the maiden drill at the
same city.

Capt. Oliver r.. Funston for ten years

tuition, who had been for some time a
sufferer from heart disease, died suddenly
about 8 O clock on Tuesday night. He was
passing the Virginia Hotel and being taken
suddenly ill sat down on the curb stone.
Two OF three gentlemen who saw him went
up and asked him what was the matter. He
replied that he was very sick. He was
assisted into the hotel and seated on
chair He gasped for moment and then
expired
Capt. Funston was born in Clarke coun-
ty fifty-one years ago, and at the age of sew
enteen enlisted as d private in the Clarke
company in the 9th Va. cavalry, and was
afterwards made Adjutant of the 18th Va.
cavalry of which his father, Col. Q. R.
Funston, was the commander. After the
war he married Miss Lewis, daughter of
j Judge i. w. Lewis of King George
county. one Of the Washington family, who
survives him. He was an Episcopalian
in faith, and was a grandson OF the late
Bishop Meade Of that church. He has four
brothers and one OF two cousins ministers
of that church. His funeral took place
from Emmanuel 2. E. church in this city,
of which he was a member, yesterday after
noon.
Capt Funston S sudden death was great
shock to his numerous friends in Staunton.
He was genial, popular gentleman, and
efficient public officer, and his loss will be
greatly regretted by all who had the good
fortune to know him.

The Churches and Pastors.

Rev. DR.. Samuel Rodgers, who died of
Bright S disease in Baltimore, last Thurs
day, had been an invalid for some months.
He was one Of the most prominent minis
tiers of the Baltimore Conference, M. E.
Church, South, and came from old Scotch
Irish stock, all Of his fathers family ex-
cept himself being Presbyterians. He was
native Of Baltimore and entered the old
conference only year lacking of a half
century ago. He served through the civil
war as Chaplain of the 22d Va. infantry
G. S. A. He was pastor of the Methodist
church here few years ago and while here
lost a much beloved son. Two children
survive him-John L. Rodgers, promi-
nent merchant Of BALTIMORE, and Miss
Bertha Rodgers. Bishop Wilson officiated
at his funeral. Combined with his ability
and piety, DR.. Rodgers had remarkable
lirmness and determination, and as editor
of the Episcopal Methodist published in
Baltimore, though knowing his end was
near, he never gave up, but dictated the
editorials of the paper up to within forty
eight hours of his death.
Prof. Charles E. Young has been elected
a ruling elder by the congregation of the
Presbyterian church at Charlottesville,
where he resides.
