Grana EsalIy in WARD Ten.
Barbecue, Speaking and Nomi-
nations.

Tn saturday, sept. .th, yc As
sOciate IN company with Mr.. sam.
Henry, went down to ST. Vincent
Springs. n few miles south of Der
ny, TO address the Popuiists of the
tenth ward, who had assembled TO
appoint ward officers and commits
sloners of election, as well is to
hear some speaking, and partici-
pate IN the barbecue ana picnic GOT
ten up by the string citizens Of
that ward.
We were more than surprised.
and indeed well pleased to find
about four hundred OF the repre-
sentative citizens, including n num-
ber of ladies', on the grounds who
had assembled TO do honor TO the
occasion.
Mr.. Samuel j. Henry was intro
duced by Mr.. w. II. Russell, rs
the orator of the day, and his ap-
pearancc was hailed with delight,
for they knew they would hear
something worth listening to. Mr..
Henry spoke for about an hour,
giving a brief history OF the Peo-
Pies party; explained its princi-
pies. outlined its policy, and fully
satisfied the immense audience.
After laughablc annecdote he re-
tired amid the applause of the
crowd. 4 salute was fired when
his speech was concluded, and ye
associate editor, much against his
will, made Il short address. He
was followed by Mr.. w. a.
CQuinn, who fully and ably pre-
sentcd the financial question he
being several times interrupted by
the cheers of his hearers.
After the talks were concluded,
the executive committee met, APP
pointed commissioners and dele
gates, adjourned for dinner. A
generous supply of barbecued
meats and such delicacies rs are
usually brought by the ladies, was
spread out for the hungry partici
pants, who did ample justice.
About an hour after dinner a
mass meeting was held with Mr..
j. w. Self Jr., as chairman, and
the ward officers, list of whom
we publish below, were nomina
ted.
We were listening to sweet mu-
sic and singing when the driver of
our conveyance warned us that it
was time to travel, and after Il
hearty good bye to our many
friends, the trip homeward was
begun. Too much cannot be said
about the many ladies in attend
ance who, by their presence and
their efforts tended to and did make
the days glorious success. When
ever the ladies become interested,
it's pretty good indication that
things are going their way.
A few yellow jackets disputed
our right of way, both gong and
coming, but we safely got through,
and landed in Natchltoches well
pleased with our trip.
As our prolific pencil might bore
the reader, we close by simply
calling attention to the ward OIL
GERS nominated, many of whom
are personal friends of the writer,
who knows them to be representa-
tive men, who are true to their
cause and their country, and we
feel sure that no better ticket can
be put in the field.
The following nominations were
made:

We understand that the City

A Sad Case.

About four weeks ago James s. Mo- Carthy, twenty-three years old, son of James Mccarthy of Milford, justice of the peace for twenty years and ex- selectman, stole a valuable horse from his fathers stable and after securing a surrey buggy from a nearby livery man, made off for this city.
 The horse was found at Charles Ratner's stable, No 70 Washington street, last week by Patrolman Owen J. Daley. Young Mccarthy had sold the rig for $10, and then made himself scarce. Yesterday the father came to this city and identified the horse as his.
 I The buggy is one which formerly be- longed to MT. Sanford, of Sanford's | hotel at Merwin's Point, and for which
 Mccarthy had traded off dog cart which doubtless he had received in ex-
 change for the surrey he obtained from
 the Milford liveryman.
 MT. Mccarthy, the elder, will not prosecute his son, because he declarest
 he has not been altogether sane since
 he served a jail sentence at Bridgeport
 for the same offense. He will make l good the Milford liveryman's loss,

ASHES TO AsHES.
From the IJrn.l

tfrOm the urn
 Whether our dead shall be buried or cremated; whether they shall be com sumed by revolting process in. say, sixty years, or by purifying process in sixty minutes; whether the body we have cherished in life shall be forced to submit to the indignity of becoming for generations food for the veriest ver- min that crawls in the noisome vapor within the coffin lids, or by incinera- ton, by rapid absorption of the gaseous elements passing almost instantly into the air above us; whether it be 'dust to dust" lingeringly or ashes to ashes" speedily, are questions which are re- ceiving more and more consideration daily.
 Medicine and chemistry, instinctively alive to what contributes most toathe health of the human family, have given an almost unanimous endorsement to the practice of cremation on sanitary grounds alone.
 The opposition to this practice has come almost wholly from prejudice, a prejudice borne of conservatism, which has done so much to arrest the march of progress in every age. Conservatism has always been indiscriminating. II never inquires into the right or wrong. the good or evil of any new phase of thought It blindly clings to the ignor- ant past, holding in contempt the intel ligent present It has retarded and still retards letters. It has ever been the foe of science It persecuted Copernicus, discredited Newton, terrorized Calico and ridiculed Darwin. It crucified Christ. It fed the flames of Seville, Smithfield, Geneva and Salem. It gib- beted Quakers, 1t sought to discourage Columbus, it sneered at Fulton, Morse and Edison. It defended slavery It has sbeenchampioned the divine right of kings and ecclesiastics. It is this Bour- | bon of conservatism which to-day is l the most potent obstacle in the way of reform in the disposal of our dead
