Charges of Assault.
Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
ROCKVILLE, February 5. 1885,
Sheriff Horton G. Thompson arrived here
yesterday evening, having in charge Collie
and Roland Coe, two young men formerly
of Loudoun county, Va, who are charged
with assault and disturbing a religious
meeting. The offense charged occurred at
Hunting Hill Union Church the 9th of
December, 1896. Rev. VIM. d. Beall of
Ga1thersburg was preaching when he and
the congregation were disturbed by the
beating OF tambourine and the talking by
the Goes and youth named Graf. The
preacher reproved the trio and asked them
to behave themselves or leave the house.
This they declined to do, and at the close
of the services as Mr.. Beall was descending
from the pulpit, he was confronted by the
three and violently assaulted and received
severe blow in the face Every effort
was made to arrest the parties, but they
had mace their escape across the Potomac
during the night following the assault
They were indicted by the grand jury at
the March term of the circuit court in
1897, and since that date nothing was
known of their whereabouts until few
days ago, when information was received
that they were in custody at Oxford, N. Y.
Sheriff Thompson Immediately procured the
necessary requisition papers, and on Tues
day left for Oxford. Upon the arrival Of
the prisoners they We're taken directly
from the railroad station to the county
JAIL where they will likely remain until
the March term Of court unless released
On ball. The youth, Graf. connected with
the affair, remained in thas county, and
upon trial was acquitted, the evidence Of
the minister and others showing that he
did not commit the assault.3r,

There was an interesting and instruc-
tive meeting Saturday afternoon. About
40 were present, one-third of which were
meD. After the opening exercises and
the usual amount of business was dis
posed of the following question was dis
cussed: (Which is of more advantage
to the farmer. the raising of yellow corn
for the silo, or the raising of sweet corn
for the factory, the forage to be convert
ed into ensilage.' The questions of
location to the factory and adaptation
of soil were brought up as important
factors in raising this crop. While some
were inclined to not wholly throw aside
the old Indian corn bin, heaped with
golden ears in the harvest time, Others
contended that the money received from
the sweet corn would buy more bushels
of yellow corn than could be raised on
the same acreage. The time occupied in
the disposition of the question was very
profitably spent as some of the best
farmers in this section of the State par
ticipated. Feeding for dairy purposes
also received its share of attention. The
installation of the officers will be held
Saturday, January eth, beginning at 10
O'Clock a. N. 1t was recommended and
finally voted that rs the installation of
the officers of the G. A. r. Post was to
be held at the same place on the same
day these organizations united to the
extent of making the installations public
to each other and have a union dinner
No programme was announced for the
next meeting as the time will be fally
occupied with other duties on that day.
Saturdays meeting was the closing one
of the year and the grange begins the
work of the new year in prosperous
condition.

Death of v. IL. futile.

Mr.. Van Rensselaer, futile died at his
home in Canaan, Friday, the l6 h
instant, after a protracted illness cover
ing some months, and thus Canaan loses
one of her most prominent and best
citizens.
Mr.. futile was born in Canaan, M,
November Il, 1912. lie was the son of
Wentworth and Elizabeth (Wyman)
futile. His father came from Berwick,
Me-, but was a native of kennebec and
came to Canaan in 1904. He was one of
the prominent business men of the place
and served in the legislature for several
terms also in the executive council. His
wife was native of Fairfield and they
had family of 10 children. The father
died in 1864 and the mother 10 1856
Van Rensselaer, was reared and educat-
ed in Canaan. He became interested in
lumber business early in life. In the
early thrties he began to operate a
lumber and grist mill at Canaan, which
he owned at the time of his death. He
also dealt in real estate and was interest
ed for many years in patent rights. In
connection with the latter he estimated
lIlhb TIC lIdNtItu AO.UOO lllItS WliHlD VIC
United States. His business ventures
were usually successful and he was
owner of much valuable real estate.
He was one of the first movers in pro-
iect to build a railroad from Boothbay
Harbor to Quebec via Canaan and gave
much time and expended considerable
money in the enterprise and had strong
hopes of its success but was destined tn
die without seeing realization of his
plans.
Mr.. futile was married Sept. rs, 1868,
to Mrs. Helen (Gilman) futile. his
brothers widow, who survives him.
She is daughter of Winthrop w. Gil
man, now deceased, who was for MANY
years engaged in the leather business in
New York.
In politics Mr.. Tuttle was Demo-
crat. He served for number of years
on the board of selectmen and as town
treasurer and represented his district in
the legislature in 1856. He was an up
right, honorable citizen who had the
good Of his town at heart and took great
interest In the welfare of its citizens.
One sister 10 New York survives, the
only one of the large family. He had been
actively engaged during the past year in
building an expensive stone dam and
mill which he proposed to operate in the
spring.
The funeral service was held at the
village church on Sunday afternoon ard
was conducted by Rev. B. c. Wentworth
of Skowhegan. A large congregation
was present which gave evidence OF the
high esteem in which he was held by the
people of his native town.

Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject,
is narrated by him as follows: 81 was

weaker day by day. Three physicians
had given me up. Fortunately friend

Chicago News: Congress is in ses-
sion. Hence abuse of the hated Speaker
of the House is in order. Immediately
after calling the House to order Mr..
Reed announced: "The chaplain will
offer prayer" This arbitrary act shows
that the vacation has brought no soften
ing to the mans callous heart. He is as
determined as ever to rule or ruin. He
did not ask the House whether it wished
prayer offered. He did not ask the
chaplain whether he wished to pray.
He simply announced: 1.-THE chaplain
will offer prayer" Thus the palladium
of our liberties is again trifled with.

Mary Eliza Moore.

Miss Mary f. Moore, member of the
National society, Daughters Of the Amer
lean Revolution, and resident of Bos,
ton, died in that city, Nov. I, 1893. She
was born in Skowhegan, Me-, Sept. 2,
1910, and was the daughter of the late
Herbert A. and Eliza Parker (Boies)
Moore.
Miss Moore has been engaged in husi-
ness in Boston for nearly forty years.
For the past two years her health had
not been good, but she attended to her
business affairs up to the time of her
decease.
She WAS noble, generous and loving
woman, aud many friends greatly mourn
for the loss Of one, who, at all times and
under all conditions, WAS true and
devoted friend. A cheerful word and II
kind, helpful attention was always given
by her to struggling humanity seeking
higher standards and better conditions
in this work-a-day world.
Her life, like all history Of great
events, will he better understood and
appreciated when the memory and
record of it has receded into the years
that are to come, it is then, TO the lives
of those who knew her, will come that
vision of her as she really was-a grand
and noble spirit, who literally fulfilled
by her work and self denial, the VT rds
spoken by the Master nearly two thou
sand years ago, when it WAS said,
''Greater love hath no man than this,
that man Jay down his life for his
friends"
The serenity and grandeur that per-
meated her life, disclosing trustfulness
in Gods love, with readiness to go
when the summons should come, seems
to be fully expressed by the lines of the
great poet laureate of England, in
