Capt. Jacob Roderick, one of the best
conductors on the B. & o. Railroad has
given ms the following incident which
well illustrates one of the characteristics
of the greatest solder of modern times
During the war, Mr.. R. was quite young
and was one of Gen. Lees couriers. While
the Confederate army was in Psnnsyl-
vania, he was carrying dispatch to
Gen. Lee. He was informed that the
General had his quarters in large field
of timothy. The courier rode around
two sides of the field, but seeing no en-
trance hastily threw several rails off the
fence, jumped his horse over it and was
loping through the timothy when be saw
IN another part of the field the tall
form OF Gen. Lee, who mOtioned to him TO
go back and go around IN certain direc
ton. Re found an entrance through a
barn yard and when be reached the
General, he mildly reproved him, saying
never destroy anything unnecessarily.
If We can not use this grass, the people
living here will have use fer it,"

In our issue of last week we stated
that the case Of s. E. Hausenhuck
against the Shenandoah II. NJ. Fire In
surance company, to recover the amount
of insurance for the burning of the
Farmers Mill property, had been com
promised for $l450. This is q mistake, so
we are informed as far as Mr.. Hunshuck's
connection with it IS concerned. He did
not own the property at the time it was
burned, but had conveyed 1t, as the
records show. to Geo. Wright in 1887,
and by whom 1t had been sold to Mr..
Harrison Crabill in 1891, and for whom
it burned a year after. The amount of
insurance was $500 and after the jury
was in the box and everything ready for
trial the compromise was made as above
stated for sll50

OBTTUARY. William l.. M alIorY.

William L. Mallory, a. son of Deacon
 Mallory of the Humphrey street church,
 died at his home, 221 English street, yesterday after a lingering Illness of several months. MT. Mallory was a
 very popular young man and his death is much lamented. He was in business
 with his father as a baker on State
 street and bade fair to become very successful, but disease fastened upon him which all efforts to stay were un- availing. He leaves to mourn young wife whom two years ago he married, and who is a. daughter of F. A. Babcock, the well known real estate agent. She and very young child survive him. She will have the sympathy of many in her sorrow. The deceased was of q very genial disposition and made friends of all with whom he came in contact. Moreover, he was @ true friend and embraced every opportunity for doing a kindness.
 DEATH OF MRS. ELLEN MCKENNA.
 The death of Mrs. Ellen McKenna occurred at quarter of o'clock yes- terday afternoon at her home on Frank lin street, near Grand avenue. She had been i'll for some time with diabetes which was the immediate cause of her death. She was the widow of the late Patrick McKenna, prominent and popular citizen, who died in December, 1890. Mrs. McKenna had been afflicted with the diabetes for some time. A few months ago she went on a trip through Southern California and Texas in search of health. The journey partly improved her condition, but she again relapsed after her return home. She leaves two children, Eugene and Miss Lillian. She also leaves two sisters, Mrs. Ann Kane and Mrs. Thomas Moran, and one brother, MT. Patrick Cullan. James T. Moran, the well known lawyer, who Is also police com missioner and member of the board of education, is her nephew.
 Mrs. McKenna was born in County Langford, Ireland, fifty years ago. She came to this country when a child and in 1864 was married to Mir. Patrick Me Kenna, who Is still well remembered.
 Mrs. McKenna was of kind and ex- generous disposition and her loss will be deeply felt not only by a large circle of friends, but by many unfortunate people who have been secretly aided. Her friends among the lowly were many and she was always present when assistance was needed. Though blessed with @ goodly share of this worlds goods she never forgot to help any who stood In need of her assistance. Her life was one of con- tinued usefulness and she will be re- membered until all who knew her fol- low her
