The funeral services over the body of
Rev. S. F. Smith. d. D., the author of the

Baptist Church at Newton Center, Mass,
Tuesday afternoon. Among those in at

listers, officials of the state and many prom
inent citizens. Throngs were unable to gain
admittance. The eulogy was pronounced by
Rev. A. H. Hovey, president of the Baptist

were many and very beautiful. the pulpit

The following story of how America"
came to be written is worthy of note One
dismal day in February, 1872, he was looking
over some German music books when his
attention was drawn to a tune which was
attractive by reason of its simple and natur-
al movement. CHANGING at the words" the
doctor recently wrote, Il saw that they
were patriotic, and / was instantly inspired
to write patriotic hymn of my own. Seiz-
ing scrap of waste paper, began to write
and in half an hour, think, the words stood
upon it substantially as they are sung to-
day. ! did not know at the time that the
tune was the British God Save the King
1 do not share the regret Of those who deem
it an evil that the national tune OF Britain
and America Is the same On the contrary
1 deem it a new and beautiful tie of union
between the mother and the daughter, one
furnishing the music Of, indeed, it is really
English) and the other the words.
II did not propose to write national
hymn. l did not think that 1 had done so.
l laid the song aside, and nearly forgot that
l had made 1t. Some weeks later sent it to
Mr.. Mason, and on the following Fourth of
July, much to my surprise. he brought 1t out
at a children's celebration in Park Street
Church, in Boston, where it was first sung

profession. He started in by being a watch
er at the polls and by slow degrees worked
his way up the ladder of Tammany prefer
ment filling about every place in which
members of that organiZa ton are called
upon to serve, finally occupying some of the
most important committee places within the
gift of the organization. For while he
was acting mayor of New York city, aRd
his thorough training in the workings of
the organization has made him familiar with
every detail of such work.
In appearance Mr.. Mcclellan might be
taken for member of foot ball team
who had discarded the business, cut and
brushed his hair and left in the enjoyment
of the vigorous health that comes from
athletic training. AS a matter Of fact, his
weight was not sufficient to admit him to
the foot ball teams when he was at college,
and he occupied himself with the lighter
sports, making reputation as a Splinter.
Since his college days, however, he has
added fifty pounds to his weight. and now
turns the scales at 175 pounds. He is said
to bear striking resemblance to his
father. Gen. George 3. Mcclellan. though
the latter was slightly taller than the young
Congressman.
VIII support the Democratic Nominee
To Star reporter. who asked him what
part the democrats of New York will play
in the next presidential election, Mr. Nc
Clellan said:
ously support the candidate of the national
democratic convention. If hard work and
enthusiasm on the part of Tammany Hail
can elect that nominee, he will be elected.
In 1884 Tammany Hall elected President
Cleveland. In 1888 Tammany Hall carried
the city of New York for President Cleve

and made the greatest campaign in its his
tory for the democratic nominee. Mr..
Croker's action in at once giving his ener-
getic support to Mr.. Cleveland gave conf
dence to the party throughout the country
and strengthened the waverers in all the
doubtful states. Mr.. Cookers wise, bril-
liant and mastery leadership in that cam
paign, more than anything else, resulted in
the election of a democratic President"
"And who will be the choice of Tammany
Hall for the presidency"
This is the year of grace 1895, and the
month of November The election does not

Life in the pine forests Of the great north

and every year these hewers of wood and
sawyers of logs cut down the timber on
thousands of acres of land in order to sup

the "murderous operation as follows:

MY curiosity was aroused, but 1 said
nothing. He took down a double-barreled
Misunderstanding shotgun and his powder

pan of shelled corn. He sat down on a bench

charges of powder and poured handful Of
corn into each barrel He put on a percus-

cooked both barrels and blaZed away at the
side hill across the little gulch. The roar
had not died away until a drove of hogs
came running, grunting and squealing and
commenced to root the side hill for the
corn. Whenever they Stacked up in their

national committee, who has large interests

with a large number of others, was at one
of the tri-weekly presidential receptions,

shake hands with the President got trifle

tended to deliver. Instead she grasped the
Presidents hand, and. looking earnestly in
his face. said How do you do, Grover?"
She is pretty woman, and the President
is not averse to looking at pretty woman
and even squeezing her hand. He held on
to her hand and looked in her face, which
finally became scarlet, although she could
not refrain from laughing, especially as
the President was laughing rather heartily
himself. After waiting a few seconds.
which seemed an hour to the lady, he re-
piled: Il am very well, indeed, and very
happy to have met you" With a courtly
bow he released her hand and she passed
on. What on earth was the President

him. inquired lady who was just behind,
but she never told-not for long time.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Lew and Lottie Waters.

One of the cleanest, neatest and most enjoyable shows of the season. was seen at the Opera-house last night. The audience was decidedly enthusiastic and not without cause.
 Comedy. genuine comedy, without the clap-trap which so often is east upon a public all too long suffering, was given and appreciated. The performance, which was novel one, opened with comedietta in one act entitled Matrimonial Masquer- ading.' The characters, six in all, were assumed by Lew and .Lottie Waters. The work done was clever and the artists were encored time and again. Miss Waters deserves es- pecial praise for her singing. Her voice is clear, her enunciation very distinct and her manner not unlike that of the popular Bessie Bonehill. Tn fact her work, though original, re- minds one very forcibly of that wide ly-known actress.
 \ great addition to the company is Mir. Ray L. Royce, who is, by the way, a first-elass attraction in him. self Mr. Royce was for some years in the Lansing Musical Company and his reputation pre- ceded him last night and his imper- sonations and general character work thoroughly pleased.
 It was iuat such show that one wants to see when pure fun is de- sired. The company will present to- night the comedy of "Swecthearts' in which various specialties will be introduced. heprices arc 25, 8 and 50 cents, and the GRAPHIC can safely say that the audience will be pleased,
