A Tombstone Eulogy.

In the old Pine Creek graveyard at Jer-
sey Shore is grave marked by time
stained slab bearing the following unique
inscription:
James McMurray, born in Ireland June II,
lT64. Emigrated to America in 1880. Was con-
verted to God in 1920 and united with the M. E..
church. The husband Of three wives, the fa-
ther of 22 children, Is living, the grandfather
of 50 and great-grandfather of 3S, who died in
Jersey Shore April II, 1858, in great peace and
triumph, being "a years q resident of the coun-
ty where he exchanged earth for heaven.
One of the 90 children of James McMur-
ray was the late Rev. Jacob McMurray,
who at years of age astounded the people
of his locality by his precocious power in
discussing religious subjects and ques-
tions involving nice theological points, and
of whom his mother prophesied, He will
become great preacher and die in the
Lords harness." He did become distin-
guished and powerful preacher and in
1885 fulfilled his mothers prophecy by dy-
ing while officiating at communion serv-
ice in his church. He was the author Of
the famous local option act, which passed
the legislature and disturbed Pennsylva-
MIA politics SO greatly some years ago.

Washington, April 13.-Mr. Cockrell,

the roll was called, which showed the
presence of 43 mem bers, exactly quo
rum. Mr.. Hill, Democrat of New Y York
inq ured as to how m any pairs were an,
nounced on voting, and was informed
there wereenine. Said he, IF these pairs
had been entered on the journal, quo
rum would have been actually present,
and the Senate is entitled to do business
under the well regulated rules that pre-
vailed in other bodies, and ought to
prevail here"
II desire to inquire of the Senator
from New York" " said Mr.. Quay, Repub-
lican, whether heswishes to suggest that
the Reed rule be enforced?"
4 do not recognize the fact" Mr.. Hill
said, that Mr.. Reed has any monopoly
on a simple. plain rule like this, which
can be adopted by any body. and which
Gamble recognized as existing on ordlna-
ry principles of parliamentary law.
After some bantering. the vice Presl-
dent was about to rule on the parlIa-
mentary point, when Mr.. Cockreil inter-
posed with motion to proceed to execu-
tive business. The motion was agreed
to. After short executive session the

The Horse Sale.

Mr.. Stephen J. Murray's auction sale
of horses at his stable on Federal street
yesterday was largely attended despite
the storm. The big pair of steel grays
weighing 1910 pounds were bought by
Mr.. Brooks for the Westbrook express.
Several other large pairs were sold at
great bargains to the buyers as well as
numerous others of the general working
and driving class.
These sales of Mr.. Murray's bid fair to
become a feature of the horse economy
of Maine. The breeders of the horses of
G curse must suffer now, as do the millers
who turn out the flour and in fact about
every industry.

him now. What has he not done? He
even falsif1ed his marriage certificate.
Can you believe the story he tells
with all it's improbabilities? which he
asks you to believe in the same breath
in which he tells you of all his de-
ceptions of other people? How can you
know he is not practicing these things
on you? 1t is simply impossible for you
to find Madeline Pollard told him any
such story about Rodes. or that Rodes
told his story about himself. Whatever
