Death of Mrs. Geo. +. Crutch.
ley.

The following notice Of the
death Of Mrs. Crutchley. mention
of which was made in these
columns, is taken from the Nor
borne. Missouri, Jeffersonian, OF
March 10th:
Matte R. Runyan. wife Of Geo
F. Crutchley, was born at Frank
tort, KY, July ID. 1854 educated
at Greenwood Female Seminary,
Of that city, and graduated a few
years later at the New England
conservatory of music at Boston.
On October 2Ist, 1890. she was
married to Geo. F. Crutchley, oil
this city, and died of pneumonia
at IFS o'clock p. m. March Q,
1894. Such are the more promi-
nent facts connected with beauti.
full life, a life remarkable for doing
good and OF contributing we'll to
the refinement and intelligence Of
a community in which she lived. a
life that added joy and light. and
an inspiration to do right to all
with whom she associated. Her
very nature was to make better and
purer her friend. Her influence
was good and people knew it.
Why God turned out this light we
are too ignorant to answer, but
know it was best. Her life was
patient. but industrious; firm, but
not obstinate; intelligent without
egotism, and pious without pre-
tense.
The young people OF this city
have lost noble teacher; the
church will miss her work, and no
poor words OF ours can sympa
thize with her husband in this his
sad bereavement. That God may
richly bless him, and that her good
and kindly influence may always
direct and guide him Alright is the
earnest desire Of everybody in this
vicinity.
Funeral services were conduct.
ed over her remains Sun, ay by
Rev. +. E. Bostwick, after which
they were laid to rest in the
Hardin cemetery.

STREET CARS.
THE ELECTRIC RAILWAY
IN OPERATION.
Everything Running Smoothly,

1t was expected to have the
street cars running Saturday after
noon, but owing to the failure of
the c. H. & D. railroad to trans
fer them to the Q. & c. at Gin
cinnati in time to get them on the
freight train which connects with
the Midland morning freight at
Georgetown. they did not arrive
here until that night and were un-
loaded and placed on the track
Sunday morning. When it came
to getting them ready to run it was
found that box containing the
brushes, all but one of the morton
handles and some of the other
small parts had been left behind,
and it became necessary to impro-
wise brushes and use monkey
wrenches for handles. One car
was gotten out and made two
trips over the track on the
North side and the loop on the
South Side. 1t made the, run
without accident and glided over
the rails at lively rate. Quite
large crowd took advantage of the
opportunity for free ride and en-
joyed it immensely. AS every
thing was not in good working
trim the cars were not started
again until Wednesday.
At 2:3o o'clock on that day all
the cars were brought out, filled
with prominent citizens and in
vited guests and made the run
over the line from the corner OF
Main and Ann streets, through
South Frankfort and back to the
0. F. c. distillery at Leestown.
The cars were in charge Of ex.
perienced motormen, and under
their skillful handling demonstrated
that the road is one of the best
built and most elegantly equipped
in the State. The cars were all
run out on Main street, where they
were photographed by Mr.. H. G..
Mattern. who took another view
of them from the ustom-house
win dow as they came over the
new bridge. Everyone was, de-
lighted with the trip and the active
and resolute citizens who have
given to the city this great i'm
orovement were the subjects Of
commentator.

THE NEW CHINESE TREATY.

The present is not good time to let
down bars which have kept foreign lab
orers out Of the United States. With sew
eral hundred thousand American laborers
out of employment an addition 10 the
number from foreign lands will be looked
upon as little short of deliberate treason
TO the people. The State Department has
the power to negotiate treaties and the
Senate the power to confirm them. The
House is consulted only when an appro-
priation is required to put the treaty in
operation. The people at the time have
no voice in the matter. The sovereign has
deputed power 10 its agents for a given
period Of time. There is no way by which
delegated power may be recovered during
the period for which it was given. But
the sovereign may protest with such
energy that the agent may think 1t wise
to pause. Such treaty as Mr.. Gresham
is said to have negotiated will make Sec
tional question a national one. The At
lantic Coast will be nearly as deeply in
terested as the Pacific Coast The bulk Of
the unemployed are east of the Missouri
River. They expect a tariff law which
will increase imports and to a correspond
ing extent decrease the manufacture Of
American goods. This they might stand,
but treaty which opens our ports to the
ten-cent laborers of China may prove the
last straw.
