Mrs. Markham was about fifty years of
age and is thought to have left property

Our former toWnSman Harry Rowe
Shelley, who has mounted high on the
ladder Of fame in his profession, as is
we'll known all over the country, espe-
cially in musical circles, leaves town to-
day with his wife for the Rangeley
Lakes via the White Mountains They
will stay at the Rangeleys during Sep
TENDER, returning early in October to
Brooklyn, where Mr.. Shelley is organist
and musical director at the famous
Church of the Pilgrims over which pre-
sides the polished orator ana eminent
divine, Rev. DIR. Richard S. Storrs,
whose fiftieth anniversary as pastor of
this church is to be ceiabrated next
year. Mr.. Shelley's professional work
since leaving Center church's organ,
this city, years, ago, has been divided
between DR.. Storrs' church and the
famous Plymouth church. He was or
ganist and musical director Of Henry
Ward Beecher's church at the time of
the latters death, returning to his old
charge at DR. Storrs' church later. A
most touching incident of Henry Ward
Beecher was recalled by Mr.. Shelley to
friends during his present visit here.
On the last Sunday that Beecher
preached at Plymouth church, his last
Sunday on earth, he fingered until
after all the congregation had passed
out of the church. Mr.. Shelley was still
at the organ playing, his wife, daugh-
ter of the late John w. Lake of this
city, being with him in the organ loft.
When Mr.. Shelley ceased playing his
wife said to him that was indeed a
touching and beautiful act" What
was it?" Mr.. Shelley asked. She then
told him that as Mr.. Beecher was pass
ing out of the church his eye fell upon
two poor little ragged lads, with earn
est faces, who had strayed into the
sacred building to hear the music, find
ing the church empty. Beecher, inn
pulsive and big hearted, cordially
greeted the poor little trembling lads
and STOPPING kissed each one of them
on the cheek and and then grasping
one under each arm gently and ten
derby, passed on, carrying them with
him out of the church, whose portals
he never more was to enter alive.

Stealing Rides ON the Cars.

For some time past the officials of the
Winchester avenue railroad have been
greatly annoyed by boys jumping on
and off the cars on Carlisle and Put
nam streets. Yesterday they made
complaint to Captain Woodruff of the
Howard avenue precinct and two pa
trolmen were detained in citizens
clothes to arrest the offenders, AS a
result three boys were captured, but
two of them were of such tender years
that they We're Immediately released
with reprimand. The third boy,
however, Theodore Taymyre, was held
on the charge of evading railroad fare,
He was subsequently, released from Gus
tody on bonds. The police and railroad
officials are determined to put stop
to the dangerous practice.

ro1I's WONDERLAND rnrArrn.

Another week of brilliant fun and jollity will be ushered in at Polls Wonderland theater this afternoon. The bill is a remarkably strong one, judging from the names of the ar lists by whom 1t is to be presented, and the combination has been well styled an all-feature combination. Watson and Hutchings, who head the bill, have been several times with their own company, always proving a bril- liant success, and there Is perhaps no comedy duo on the stage that enjoys greater popularity. Then there Is Ed win Latell, the great American mu- sical comedy genius, who has been stirring up Boston for the past two weeks as the star of the bill at Keiths new opera house. He Is to return there in three weeks to remain as the star for a month, which is about as good an indication of his ability as anything can be. In addition the bill includes the three Bouffons, whom Oscar Ham, merstein imported from Paris as & spe- cial feature of the opening of his new Olympia theater in New York, the Metropolitan trio, the Helston trio Miss Carrie Tutein, Baker and Boydell and Miss Rita Durand. Ladies ad- mitted afternoons for 10 cents to all parts of the house.

Some Good Advice to voters.

Some Good Advice to Voters.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND CouRITR:
 Rebuke them. When such a man as General Bradley calmly and, correctly states good and sound reasons why 0 candidate should not Joe nominated and delegates are so stubborn and deter mined, it is time the voters should by their votes rebuke such stubbornness. The writer until last fall had for twen- ty-t1ve years voted the Democratic tick ct. At that time he cast his first Re publican vote, and has rejoiced the en- tire time since to know hundreds did the same and rebuked that saloon ele- ment which to-day has control of the Democratic party in New Haven. l hope and pray the voters will on Tues day next vote by a good majority the Republican ticket, irrespective of par ty. MT. Porter is a very clean gentle man, but his nomination was made solely and wholly to put in nomination a Democrat to defeat Clancy. Now let every Republican vote straight No complimentary votes. And let the "best element" in the Democratic party vote the clean Republican ticket. It is too disgusting to think of the presumption of such people. The idea of their hold ing office is nauseating in the extreme. It seems to be the greatest ambition of their lives to hold office. They have gradually crept into office until now they seem to think they and they alone "are the people," say again rebuke them.
