William HopewelI.

The undersigned committee, apo inted
to prepare paper on the death, Oct. Sd
inst. of VIM. Hopewell present the fol-
lowing for record in the minutes of the
Edinburg Sunday School, NJ. Z. Chourch,
South; and fer publication in the Edin-
burg Sentinel and the SHENANDOAH
HERALD:
Brother VIM. Hopcwell, for many years
identified with the Methodist Sunday
School of Edinburg, as officer and teacher,
has, after long battling with dire disease,
gone to the land where
sickness and sorrow, pain and death
Are felt and feared no MORE"
We desire to record our profound ST.
row at his death, and testify our ap-
probation of his estimablc character and
useful life.
he was formed IN manly mould; ma
ture seemed to have made him gentle
man; while grace made him a guiltless
Christian.
Only close observer could form AUST
estimate of his character, from its very
unobtrusiveness.
He was coustitutionally gentle, mo est
and retiring IN disposition; be was by
natural development courteous, chart
table and nagnanimous in action; be was
perforce of divine grace, honest, plous, and
CONSTANT in the whole tenor of his life
He loved his country and community,
whereof be was a patriotic citlz'n; he
loved his church, at whose stated serV ices
he was a faithful attendant but best OF
all, perhaps, he loved his Sunday School,
wherein bis best work was done. In
whatever relation we view him we behold
the impress of a firm aud forceful, though
noiseless character. If he had enemies
they must have been of class incapable
of approaching modest worth,
He walked with God in his last sick
ness; and his end was peace.
May we meet again, in "the home over
there"

his wife's death upon tho prinoe will be serious, 1t is satisfactory to add that the great chancellor has been in better health lately. and that he has been able to re sume his daily drives.
 Princess Bismarck had for years been a sufferer with a bronchial trouble and gastric catarrh. Eighteen months ago she was once found lying in a pool of blood at the foot of her bed. These faint ing attacks were repeated from time to time. The immediate cause of her death was dropsy, complicated with heart dis ease. The sease rapidly became worse during the last few days. The princess was cheerful to the end. She tried to do. ceive her husband as to hor real condi- ton. She spent much of her time out of bed.
 The prince is qnite overcome by the death of his wife. Dr. Schweninger gen tly broke the news to Prince Bismarck, who rose immediately and remained si- lently for some time at the dsathbed. At tho death scene there wore present Dr. Sohweninger, Dr. Chrysander, Countess Rantzau and Prince Bismarck's niece.
 According to some accounts. the prince is so broken down that his doctors insist upon his speedy removal to Friedriohs- ruhe. The funeral ceremonies will be on a modest scale out of regard for his oondi- ton. 1t Is expected that the body will he removed on Saturday. Prince Bismarck once expressed a wish to be buried under the oaks of his beloved Sachsen wald. 1t was concluded from this that he Intended to build a mausoleum there but the fam fly vault is at Schonhausen.

Tho Price of Interviews.

It appears that Mir. W. s. Gilbert is not the first or the only distinguished Englishman to ask compensation for an interview. The New York Suns corre- spondent in London once upon a time wrote to Mir. Gladstone asking him for an interview on the Irish question, and in the course of a conversation which followed with Mir. Gladstone's secreta- ry it was learned that fee of $500 would be expected in payment for the interview. 1t being understood that MT. Gladstone should write it himself, and thus make it authoritative.

The other part is making a forced march to Port Arthur to attack the Japanese tn rs. part of the first Japanese army Is following the Chinese on the way to Port Arthur.
 Admiral Ito's Story.
 A dispatch received here from Hirsshi- ma gives the text of the dispatch sent by Admiral Ito commander of the Japanese navy, from Port Arthur on Saturday. The dispatch says:
 'sThis place was captured by Marshal Oyama on Thursday. The united squad rons stood otf shore merely attracting seaward the attention of the coast bartor les. Since Friday morning the men of the feet have been hard at work remov- ing the torpedoes protecting the mouth Of the entrance to the fort. The dock yard. arsenal and ships in the port have been handed over to the Japanese navy department The dockyard and arsenal are In perfeot working order.
 A dispatch boat left Ping Yang inlet for Port Arthur conveying the emperor s congratulations to Count Oyama and his thanks to the troops.
 A dispatch sent from Port Arthur via Hwang-J Ju on Thursday has been received here. It states that the Chinese fought valorously. The Japanese lost 250 men killed or wounded. The Chinese loss was over ]. 900.
 The dispatch adds that over fortnight past Count Oyama's army had been stead lily marching in two divisions down the peninsula to Port Arthur, keeping in touch as far as possible with the Japanese fleet. Tho country was very difficult of passage, especially for the artillery. Ex. cept in the cultivated valleys there were practically no roads The men worked | oheerfully.
 No organized resistance was offered by the Chinese troops for three quarters of the march. Since then. however. there were occasional brushes with the enemy The villages along the line of march yielded little In the way of supplies. Some of them were footed before the Jap anese arrived. On Tuesday the right di- visions advance guard had skirmish with the enemy, who retired in good or- | der. The enemy's positions were recon noitered and found to be strong and held | in force.
 | In the afternoon the fort and village of I Shuisyching were captured. Both divi- sions moved forward during the night. Early in the morning the right division crept up tho range of low hills to the northwest of Port Arthur and carried them with rush. Guns were then drag ged up and fire opened on strong TO- doubt about l, 000 yards distant. The enemy returned the fire briskly. The Japanese infantry advanced against a well directed shell fire without falter- ing. Shortly before g O clock the fort WIS carried by storm in a most gallant fash. Ion. The Chinese stood for minCte ol two against the final onslaught fighting f1eroely. Then they fled toward the dock | yard

Extraordinary Longevity In Chile.

The last census of Chile furnishes some interesting statistics relative to longevity of certain representatives of the human race, who live in that far away corner of Latin" or Spanish" America. According to the figures in question, i'll the 23 provinces of Chile the enumerators found 2l1 men and 273 women who had passed the century milestone. One man, Rafael Munoz of Colchaqua, was returned as being 150 years of age. The oldest woman was l38. Of the other ''old timers' they found one man 135 and two women 132, one man 130, one over 127, one woman l25 and three men and four women I23, one man l22 and three women 121; 2U women and eight men gave in their ages as l20, and two women acknowledged to being past 119; five women and three men were at the 118 mark.

The Ad. dicks and Wilson families. living on ad joining estates, naturally became inti- mate, and 1t was this intimacy that caus cd Mrs. Addicks to finally leave her hus- band. s...
 Mrs. Wilson's place, to which she gives the romantic name O, Mirahores, is de scrIbed as being handsome house, with every modern improvement. The grounds are laid cut with beautiful walks and drives, and one Of the features is lily pond. The stable is we'll stocked with fine carriages of all descriptions and a mum.

Addicks, and that he has for years spent much of his time In the company of Mrs. Wilson. ne2leoting his lawful wife. and finally by his conduct compelling hor to leave him.
 What effect the action of Mrs. Addlcks will have upon the senatorial aspirations of her husband can only be conlectured. Up to the present time all signs have pointed to Mir. Addicks as the successor of Anthony Higgins In the United States senate. The legislature of Delaware will elect senator on Jan. IS.
 The divorce case will be referred to a commissioner. who will take the testimony in private, and unless ho files his matter in court it is not likely that much will be known of the allegations of Mrs. Addlcks and the testimony she has to support them.
 In addition to Herbert H. Ward of Wilmington, Mir. Addicks has as counsel George L. Crawford, now acting as mastcr in ihs various suits against tho Reading railroad. and 1t Is stated tbnt he will also employ Senator George Gray.

He said that he did not consider that in cnses of this sort an attorney should make any statement for publication Mir. Addicks Is at present stopping wisf relatives in a suburb of this city.
