Charles Robert Irving, ESQ, of
buckingham

This worthy gentleman passed away 2
little after midnight, just as another day
was being ushered in, the 10th OF Hume
at Lower Selma, the home OF his brother
Joseph X. Irving, Esq, on James river
In the county OF Buckingham, on a part
OF the original Selma estate owned l,y the
Iryings for generations.
He felt three years ago the first serious
symptoms Of disease which, character.
lied in its earlier stages as nervous dys.
pepsia, gradually involved the heart. and
with final siege of something over a
fortnight, brought on the end. His own
bachelor home was at Oakland, about
three miles from the courthouse.
No citizen resident or attendant al the
county seat was better known, for he had
served as a fiscal officer for many years.
and ali were familiar with his dignlf,ed
carriage, handsome features, and quiet
courtesy.
Regretting an illness that was to prove
his last, the county paper expressed what
every one thought when he was charan-
terized as a sterling gentleman, a cana
BILE and efficient officer. The praise was
richly deserved. But how few were taken
into his confidence and knew intimately
the beauty OF his life. his noble sensitive
nature SO hidden under an habituaI re-
serve that even his cherished friends
sometimes rallied him upon his reti.
cence. But his Judgment, calm and de-
liberate, and the advice that IL formu-
lated were always helpful and never
sought In vain, and his generosity was
nobly spontaneous and liberal
The writer OF this brief sketch has
thought that. born for action rather than
words. he was fitted by nature for a sol
dier's career. that he believed this. and
his outward life OF calm routine CON
cealed aspirations that his duty 70 his
family made a sacrifice. Certainly no
man ever lived whose temper was more
courageous. but he was as humble in All
things spiritual as a little child.
His baptismal name Is a favorite In The
family. one OF the most notable IN itself
and its connections In the county and
state. but mono who have borne the name
have upheld IL more worthily. He lived
to complete his 18th year. He was a gal
liant gentleman and good Christian
God give him perfect rest.

SHAFTER TO RETAIN CONTROL
story That Santiago, Whsu CApsared

WASHINGTON. July 1.-THE state.
ment telegraphed the press from the
army in the field to the effect that the
Cubans under Garcia have undertaken
to designate q governor for Santiago
after it falls has attracted good deal
Of attention here. The dispatch went
on to state that the man chosen for
the place was Col Demetrio Castillo,
of Garcia's army, and that Gen. Shat
ter, upon being notified of the choice,
had referred the matter to Washing
ton. No such reference has been made,
and the officials here do not expect for
an instant that Gen. Shafter will
make it. II Santiago falls under his at
tack, Gen. Shafter and no one else
would assume command OF Santiago
and retain that command as long as
he stays in that vicinity and until he
is relieved by orders from Washington.
1t is not contemplated here to turn the
captured communities over to the Gu
bans without very careful considera.
ton Of the consequences involved, not
only from the point OF moral obliga-
tions upon the United States as civ.
ilized nation, but also from that OF
political considerations.

CLEVELAND, O., July l2.-The lives
of ten men were snuffed out in the
twinkling of an eye yesterday evening

being constructed under the bottom
of Lake Erie, as a result of an explo-
sion of gas. The tunnel is an immense
affair, being projected to extend out.

~ miles, and it has been under con-
struction for more than year. The
work has been attended with great
difficulty, About six weeks ago there
was an explosion Of gas in the shore
end OF the big hole which killed eight
men and injured number Of Others
The contractors asked for permission
to defect the course Of the tunnel
from the route fixed by the city engi-
neers, but it was refused. Work was
finally resumed and had progressed
uneventfully until this latest and most
horrible accident came. Nobody will
ever be able to tell what the cause
was, or how it happened, for every
witness is dead and the bodies of all
are lying where they fell, 5000 feet
out under the lake.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE presi,
dent has appointed Senator Cullom, of
Illinois; Senator Morgan, Of Alabama;
Representative Hit, Of Illinois; San
ford Dole, president Of the Hawaiian
republic, and W. Frear, Of Hawaii, to
be commissioners under the Hawaiian
annexation resolution. The president
desires that the annexation shall take
place promptly, as 1t is the intention
to move troops to the new possessions
and create base for the continued
operations in the Philippines. The
$4,000 troops now at San Francisco
can be transported to Honolulu and
camped there, to be drawn upon as
needed by Gen. Merritt. A depot of
supplies can be established as well. IT
will be much easier to carry on the
campaign with the Hawaiian islands
as the base than with the long journey
from San Francisco to Manila to be
taken into consideration for every
movement of men and supplies.
