Death of a Woman Veteran.

There died recently at Dunkirk, N.
T., a woman who was recognized as
one of the veterans of the civil war.
Mrs. Sarah Sinfield enlisted with her
husband in Company E of the Third
Excelsior regiment, afterward the Sew
enty-second New York, in 1861 and
served through the war. Mrs. Sinfield
and her husband were allowed a tent
apart from the others, and she did wash
ing and mending instead of carrying a
musket. When battles were raging. she
helped care for the wounded. She had
the respect of all the soldiers When
her husband was wounded at Gettys-
burg in 1868, she went to the hospital
with him and after that served as an
army nurse, for which she has drawn a
pension for some years. She lived to be
"a and was a familiar figure marching
with her husband, William Sinfield,
and the old b~attle1ag in the ranks of
the G. A R. IN Decoration day. The
Grand Army post attended her funeral,
and the tattered old b~attle1ag Of her
regiment, which she had seen borne into
many a desperate conflict was carried
in the procession-Butalo Letter.

OBITUARY.

PRENTIss.-Samuel f. Prentiss died at his
home in Brooklyn, n. Y, March 26, 1894.
He was born in Montpelier, VT. February
s, 1S42. He entered Union College, Science
tady, n. Y, in 1889, in the class Of 1862,
but left his class in 1861 and enlisted in the
Thirteenth Regiment Vermont Volunteers.
He received a commission as lieutenant.
and subsequently was an aide on the staff
OF General Stoughton and afterward on the
staff of General Stannard. He was cap
tured with General StoughtOn by Moseby's
guerillas, during the night raid on Fairfax
Court House, but luckily escaped before
Moseby had reached the Confederate lines.
He participated in the battle OF Gettys-
burgh. He was afterwards honorably dis
charged and then went to New York city,
where he studied law with the late Charles
Birnie. He subsequently became a member
Of the law firm of Prentiss & Flanders of
New York, and after the death of Mr..
Flanders formed a partnership with his
brother under the name of G.. c.. q s. F:
Prentiss, which continued until the death Of
the former in June, 1893, after which he
practiced his profession alone until his
death. Mr.. Prentiss was descended from
stock we'll known in his profession. His
grandfather was the late Samuel Prentiss,
LID, who was one Of the judges OF the
supreme court prior to 1929 and then be-
came its chief Justice. He was afterwards
United States senator for two terms, begin
ming in 1880, and in 1912 was appointed
United States judge for the district OF Yer
mont. Mr.. Prentiss father, The late Ed
ward II. Prentiss. was also well known in his
profession. He was appointed clerk of the
United States district and circuit courts for
Vermont in 1872, which position he resigned
in 1859, and If 1866 he went to Brooklyn to
reside, where he died in July, 1898. Mr..
Prentiss was highly esteemed among
judges, lawyers and business men,. He was
a patient Investigator; clear, keen and in
cisive in judgment; thoroughly posted on
all technical points, but loved most Of all TO
succeed for his clients by demonstrating the
natural justice Of their cases. He was pos
sessed OF a mild and genial temperament.
His adversaries were always his friends.
Few men have enjoyed the confidence and
affection of business men and professional
tiss. lie was loved by a large circle of de-
voted friends and leaves behind him mem
cries fragrant with the recollection of a life
time devoted to kindly deeds.

A Woman Garbage Inspector.

An interesting development of wom-
ans growth in affairs is exemplified by
the recent appointment Of a woman for
garbage inspector in Chicago. She re-
ceived this distinction through the So
licitation of the Municipal Order league,
and the ladies report the city officials as
being in perfect sympathy with the new
order of things. Women have certainly
become desperately in earnest in their
interest in public matters when they
can deliberately seek al employment
which must necessarily be so very repul-
sive. The experiment bids fair to sue
coed, however, as the woman who has
undertaken this new line of work is am
ply fitted for the place. She has perfect
health and a flow of spirits that can
overcome all the depressing effects of
her occupation Her appearance is COM
handing and her dress simple. She has
taken up the work seriously and allows
nothing to interfere with her business.
She is obliged to know how to detect
any flaw in the wagons which convey
the garbage to the lake and see that
they meet the requirements of the law
and hat they are loaded properly, AZ
well as understanding the condition of
the contents.
No means of conveyance has as yet
been provided for her, and she gets
about her work as best she can, diving
down into alleys to inspect suspicious
boxes of refuse and walking miles in
the course of the day. She is required,
too, to inspect the dumping ground,
which is at the foot of Chicago avenue,
directly on the lake front. One of the
members of the league declares that the
ladies have no desire to interfere with
the men in their work, and that they
are willing that men should hold the
balance of power, but in identifying
and cleansing the city there is plenty
for them to do.
In a matter Of scientific cleanliness
women ought to succeed, and there is
hope for Chicago now that they have
taken an interest in its sanitary condi-
tion.-Chicago News.

She Had Pluck.

Mrs. j. Wilson of BIS Dearborn street
made one of the neatest catches on rec
ord at an early hour the other morning.
Mrs. Wilson had just returned from a
party and was sitting in her room, with
the light turned down, when she heard
O noise close to her window. Slightly
turning her head, she saw a pair Of
huge feet incased in tan shoes hanging
from the roof of the house. Without
saying a word Mrs, Wilson hid herself
behind the curtains and waited for the
owner of the feet to make his appear
ance. She had not long to wait, for sud
denly the window was opened, and a
black head was showed in. This was
what Mrs. Wilson was waiting for.
Quickly Selling the sash, she brought it
down ON the intended burglars head,
pinning him securely between the sash
md the sill. She then dispatched her
tughter for an officer, who placed the
fellow under arrest. Chicago Dispatch

vice of Colonel Clapp, I was, after
much importantly of lecture com

small fortune in postage stamps de-
voted to refusals, induced to go, meet

The Revolt of the Daughters.

And the head Of the house cannot be
the daughter. Funny enough, and most
inconclusive, are the explanations given
in the recent racy discussion-a most
useful discussion, too, for if it has put
revolt into the heads of a few unrevolt-

Women in the Paris Salon.

Over a hundred women have oil paint
ings hung on the walls of the salon of
the Champs Elysee in Paris this year,
and almost as many more show water
colors and pastels. Curiously enough,
the first four names in the catalogue are
feminine, Mile. Abbema heading the
list, as usual. This artist entities her
picture "Place de la Concorde, " but it
is something more than n view of this
fine %esplanade, with its fountains in the
background against the brown of win
try trees and the Doric mansions on the
right hand. In front is a young woman
in q plush cape, sable tie and brown
hat, carrying a bunch of southern wall
flowers and mimosa. Great prominence
is given to this figure, the surrounding
scene being rather the adjunct of a well
executed study Of physiognomy and tex.
lures. Miss Abbat's name stands next,
an American artist, and her small por-
trait of a man with black hair and mus
tache is most clever. Mile. Abran ex-
cells in the painting of wild beasts. Her
tigers are studied from nature in the
Jardin DIES Plantes, but she has sur
rounded them with the tangled grass of
their native jungle. Mile. Achille Fould
Is also an artist of distinction. She has
painted a very beautiful girl attired in
rich oriental garb-a harmonious blend
ing of brilliant hues very agreeable to
look upon.-PariS Journal.

Magnolia Leaf Love Messages.

a few hours. This fact is taken adj
vantage of by a lover, who pulls a
magnolia flower and on one of its
pure white petals writes a motto or

young lady puts it in a vase of water,

How to Cure a Sick Headache.

If you ever have a sick headache
and want it cured quickly and effect
lively, with none of the facilitating
effects of drugs, just take a table
spoonful of red pepper, mix it with
vinegar to a thick paste and spread
on a cloth-cotton or linen-bind
upon the forehead with a handker-
chief from temple to temple; then
take about two grains of the red pep
per in a teaspoonful of vinegar and
swallow it. The mixture on the fore
head will burn, but not blister, and
in the course of 10 minutes the head
ache will disappear under the stimu-
lating effects of this remedy, leaving
the patient feeling as if such distress
ing things as sick headache were IN
known to the human fam!ly.-Kansas

Two rosebud lips their merry chattering teasing
In bird.like notes have sung.

Bidding adieu to light;
And lips, white heads, and feet lie still, reposing-

Yet, through life's hours of stress and storm
When griefs befell,
Love kept our small home corner warm,
And all was well.

But let that pass;
Perhaps we view the dual life
Through roseate glass;
Even If the prospect be not bright,
We hold it true
That heaviest burdens may grow light
When shared by two.
