A VERY SAD AFFAIR.
Mrs. woodbridge G. Osborne Dies From
Heart Disease.

Mrs. Woodbridge 6. Osborne, whose
home was at % Winter street, died very
suddenly in Washington, D. G., Saturday
morning, at six O'Clock. and her remains
were brought to the city, arriving here on
the noon train yesterday.
Her son, Woodbridge G. Osborne. en-
listed in the First Maine regiment and
was stricken down with typhoid fever
about August 10th. For several days
thereafter the family wero unable to get
any information concerning their son,
although kilograms were sent to the
colonel of the regiment and the company
commander. So great was their anxiety
in the matter that Major G. D Boyd,
neighbor, on hearing Of the case, tele-
graphed at once to Lewis III. Coleman,
his son-in-law, prominent and IN
fluential lawyer in Chattanooga, who in
terested himself in the whereabouts OF
young Osborne and after vigilant search
at Chickamauga found him grievously
sick with typhoid fever in one OF the
hospital tents.
That Mr. Osborne might be better cared
for, MIR. Coleman got authority from the
military authorities to remove the sick
soldier to private hospital in Chattanooga
and one just then opened by the Pythian
Brotherhood was selected to which Os-
borne was removed August 9th.
1t was hard struggle which he had
with the dread disease but careful nursing
brought about improvement so much so
that about four weeks ago it was thought
advisable for Mrs. Osborne to visit her
son and she fastened on with the view of
bringing him home so soon as his con.
dition would permit.
On Friday morning last she and her
son reached Washington, D. G., on their
way to Portland and concluded to remain
in Washington one day with a cousins
Mrs. Lincoln.
Friday night Mrs Osborne went to bed
in her usualhealth save for what seems
to be slight attack of indigestion. She
occupied a room adjoining that OF her
son, and awakening Saturday morning
about six o'clock attempted to say some
thing to him. The latter was awake at
the time and observing that his mother s
remarks were suddenly broken DIN fact
the sentence was unfinished-he hurried
to her room and found her in dying
condition and before medical aid could
reach her she had died from neuralgia
of the heart
Mrs. Lincoln, at whose home the death
occurred, is daughter of Capt Horace
Loring, former shipmaster of.this city,
and she accompanied the remains to Port
land.
IL his convalescing condition the snock
to the son was of course very severe.
His condition is weak but DIR. Bray whc
is in attendance thinks the soldier is get
ting along reasonably we'll. The funeral
of Mrs. Osborne will take place from her
late residence, % Winter street, tomorrow
at 2 p. m.

PORTLAND SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.
An Organization of Leading Portland
Artists to Give Concerts at Jefferson.

That Portland is rapidly progressing in
its love and appreciation of the artistic in
music and drama, Is demonstrated not
only by the increased attendance at the
high class productions given at the Jeffer-
son, but by the fact that symphony
orchestra has been organized and incorpo-
rated in this music loving city. Thus
the long cherished dream OF the finest
musicians of Portland has been at last
realized, and the Forest City can once
more point with pride to it's progress to-
ward the elevating influences of better
music The organization is te be dis
tinctlvely a Portland institution, every
one of the forty musicians who are to
compose it being residents of this city.
A series of high class concerts will be
given at the Jefferson during the winter,
at each of which one Of the finest soloists
of the concert stage will appear. Compo'
sitions of the best authors will be played,
and at each concert q symphony will be
rendered.
The fact that Mr.. Frank L. Callahan is
to be musical director of the new
orchestra is guarantee that its concerts
will be of the highest order, for Mr.. Cal.
lahan's successes in everything musical
which he has undertaken since coming to
Portland are too we'll known to need COM
ment. Mr.. Harry P. Goss, resident man
aeer Of the Jefferson, will be business
manager of the organization. Portland
people will be delighted to hear that a
symphony orchestra has been organized
here, an will surely accord it the hearth

guests of the hotel, started out for drive

played the cloth package which Miss
Divine had turned into the Office. Mrs.
Prentiss recognized it Immediately. and
it was returned to her. Miss Devine's
honesty and prompt action in reporting
the loss were warmly praised, and no
doubt she received a handsome reward.

INGALLS, IS SARCASTIC !
He Jumps AStride Cy Leland'S Neck
TN A MANNER MOST ARTISTIC.
Rich, Rare and Racy Reading.

LEAvENwoRTH, Jan. 1.-The Times pub
fishes special from Washington which con-
tains lengthy interview will, John J. ingalls,
on Kansas politics. Senator ingalls, said:
"rhat intelligent and sagacious leadership
was indispensable to success, and the most dis
couraging symptom the malignant attacks
in some of the newspapers upon that great and
good man, Cy Leland, whose wisdom and cour-
age had done so much to maintain oui ascend
ancy in the West since Lincoln's time"
He added eff there has been, in the last
quarter of century, any crisis in our party's
history when the discouraged and faltering
masses have not inst;ctivey turned to the en-
perience of Cy Leland for counsel, aud to his
generalship for inspiration, | do not recall it.
How often, when the battle seem 81 lost, have we
not all h card Cy Leand's trumpet tones cllling
on freedoms shattered hosts to rally round the
money
In all our party platforms, Cy I-eland'a facile
and graphic pen has formulated the issues Of
desperate campaigns i'll pregnant sentences that
have been the prelude OF victory.
"Consider, too, the admirable career of this
venerable leader as county commissioner Of
Doniphan, where he has kept the party solid
for twenty years. and marshalled its delegation
in every state and district convention, with no
suspicion of trade and decker nor any accus
ton that he was in politics tor what he coud
get out of it.
"That this disnterested patriot who aspire
to a cabinet portfolio as secretary of state or
of agriculture, to which, by his talent and serv
ice, he was justly entitled, voluntarily accept,
ed the inferior position of pension agent, when
everybody wanted Tom Anderson for that place
is conclusive proof that he did not enrich him,
self by stealing the money contributed to the
campaign fund of the state, as has been so
basey insinuated.
"These calumnious on Cy Leland weaken the
defences OF public virtue. What encourage
ment remains for ambitious young men to de-
vote themselves to the public service if the ex.
allied character and exalted fame of Cy Leland
are no armor against the weapons of envy and
personal detractiCn.
"Those who lnpute sordid and selfish pur-
poses to our revered leader who inn une his
motives and sheer at his qualities, forget thar
in 1892 the Republican convention at Hutch
inson with much enthusiasm demanded his re-
tirement from the national committee BIT he
knew what the party needed better than it knew
itself, and by an act Of Incompatible self sacri
fee he saved it from the comSt quences of its
own error. He continued on the committee,
and out of the chaos OF the revolution of 1851

Riva. Claims IN Arricn.

There are four different grounds on
which European nations base their
claims to territory in Africa. One is
actual occupation; another is treaty
with native chief, conceding terri
tory; third is the claim that the occu-
patton of the mouth ola river gives a
right to the country which it waters; 4
fourth is the "hinterland' theory, by
which is meant that nation which oc-
cupies strip of territory On the coast
has right to the country lying behind
it. Of these grounds of claim, the first
is least likely to be contested; but as
to the others, the same chief may give
concessions to two or three rival ma
tions; or the territory which is claimed
by one because it is watered by a river
the mouth of which it controls may be
claimed by another because it is in the
"hinterland" of territory which it pos
sesses on the coast.-Youth's Compan-
ion.
