The 3Oth In Oakland,

Decoration day was fittlngly
observed in Oakland by the men,
bers of the G. A. r. and other
organizations, and the graves of the
deceased brethren beautifully deco
rated by the surviving members.
A large number of the members
of the G. A. R., K. of P, and Co.
B, M. N. G., headed by Smiths
Military Band, marched to the
cemetery and there strewed flowers
oyer the mounds of those whom
they loved in life and whose men,
cries they cherish in death.
The services at the cemetery
were in charge of Crook Post, G. A.
r., ard were very impressive.
In the afternoon the Uniform
Rank, X. of P, and Co. B paraded
the town, headed by the band.
Shortly after seven o'clock the
band gave one of its delightful open
air concerts at the band stand on
the lawn of the Glades. The music
was good and executed in mastery
manner. Following is the progl am

pay the reduced duties on goods
imported between August LIST
and August 28th. The govern
ment, on the other hand, wished to
collect the higher duties as long as
it could, and regarded August 2Sth
as the date the law took effect. The
Supreme Court took the govern
ment's view of the case.

Another Tariff Bill Error

The Wilson Tariff bill is wrong
again. The income tax blunder
was not its only error. The United
States Supreme Court says so. The
tariff bill itself announces that it
went into effect on the LIST day of
August, 1894, out that is all the
law knows about itself. The Su-
preme Court decides that it took
effect on August rs, and the decls-
ion is rendered on the very sensible
ground that the bill did not become
a law until that date. The justices
took the view that law could not
take effect before it became law,
and the idea will commend itself to
most people.
The trainers of the bill expected
it to go through the process of law
making long before August LIST,
and that by the time mentioned in
the bill people would be quite ia
miliar with its provisions, but it
required until August 28th to reach
the final stage, and the date an,
nounced in the measure itself as
the time it was to take effect re-
NAMED unchanged and made
judicial decision necessary.
The changes in import duties
made the fixing of the date a very
important matter. Importers
wished the letter of the law to pre-
vail, for then they would have t.

Death Of John L. Browning.

Death Of John L. Browning.
The following sketch of the life
of the late John L. Browning, who
was buried in Oakland last Sunday
afternoon, appeared in the Cumber-
land Meas on Tuesday mornings:
The funeral of John Lynn Brown
ing occurred yesterday afternoon
from st. Pauls NJ. Z. church, Oak :
land, Md. He died on May 81,
1895, at the ripe age of sc years.
The deceased was the second son of
Meshack Browning, the great
hunter of the Alleganles. When he
attained his majority he was with
out means, but went bravely to work
and by industry and economy accu-
mulated comfortable fortune.
He lived on a fine estate of some
eighteen hundred acres, about eight
miles from Oakland. In 1884, he
married Maria Thayer, sister of the
late Ralph Thayer, In 1884 they
celebrated their golden wedding,
and at the time of his decease had
enjoyed sixty-one years of married
life. Mrs. Browning, who is eight
months his junior, survives him.
The fruits of this union were eight
children. the youngest of whom is
now over 40 years of age, and strange
as 1t may seem the first death in
this family which has occurred in a
peroid of sixty years was the husband
and father.
The deceased was not only one of
the oldest but one of the most prom
inent citizens of Garrett county.
The Browning family to which he
belonged is the largest family in the
county, and occupies prominent
place in its history. He always took
an active part in public matters,
but never held public office except
that of county commissioner IN AL
legany before Garrett county was
formed. In politics he was a Dem
ocrat. About two years ago during
a Methodist revival, the deceased
was happily CONVERTED and joined
the M. E. church. During his de-
clining days he was happy christ
ian and his death was triumphant.
AS neighbor he was held in uni
versal esteem. To know his real
worth however, it was necessary to
see him in his own home, where he
dispensed generous hospitality and
delighted in the association of his
friends and neighbors. To his wife
and children he was always affection
ate and tender, displaying a devo-
lion to them which was beautiful as
it is rare.
Services were conducted at the
residence yesterday,morning by Rev.
j. M. Davis, of Oakland. In the
afternoon the funeral sermon was
preached by Rev. S. X. Arbuthnot,
pastor of St. PauPs. The text
was, "Thou shalt come to thy grave
in a full age like as a shock OF
corn cometh in his season." Job 5
and 26.
The pail bearers were Edward
Tagart, Thomas j. Ralston, George
j. Walters, Henry Fredlock, Ru-
dolph Beckman and Lemuel Mail.
The interment was in Odd Fellows
cemetery, Oakland. Notwithstand-
ing the oppressive heat the funeral
was largely attended. Only small
portion of the great crowd could
gain admission to the church.
We know how feeble are human
efforts in such moment to comfort
and console those who are bereaved,
but weak as they are we tender to
the bereaved family our sympathy
and coincidence.
