A Man of Brilliant Parts.

Andrew B. Duvan, attorney for the Dis
trict Commissioners: He was man OF
brilliant parts: a master of word painting;
mere than this an orator, in Temperament

pressive, and suggestive articles 1 ever
read was his oration on. Memorial Day,
in which he depicted life and death and
the suggestions Of Immortality ending with
his ever present Interrogation OF doubt as
to what follows life
..The baleful influence of Ingersoll. was
doubtless due to the fact that his brilliant
speech and caustic with and sarcasm, I'M
settled the belief Of many men whose pc
lief had not become a conviction. He de-
priyed them of the little comfort they
might have found in a shadow OF bslief
and in return for that deprivation, gave
them no substitute whatever. His teach
ing was destructive and not constructive.
He had a larger circle of auditors than he
otherwise would have had because OF MS
conceded charming personality and purity

Henry e. Davis. United States Attor-
ney for the District of Columbia, said to-
day:
"The career of Colonel Ingersoll is best
described by the word sad. Gifted beyond
most men with many of the qualities which
bring success and the respect OF ones fell
low-men, 1t was In his power to become
great factor in social and political life and
a benefactor of his kind. AS against these
Qualities he possessed one which would
destroy the greatest personality possible,
the quality of scornful disregard, not to
say contempt, of the feelings and opinions
of Others. Many an honest-minded and in
deed eminent clergyman, and almost all
honest-minded laymen, now openly avow
much of what Ingersoll stood for, which,
in a sense, may not unsafely be character
lied as the fruit of the higher criticism of
the Bible; but the quality which l have
just mentioned, manifested in an intem-
perate iconoclasm and purely destructive
spirit, closed the door for him upon sue

Double Murder Done in the Home the utineers Descendants
First Serious Crime nsl 10 Years.

For the first time in all its romantic
history, Pitcairn Island has been the
scene of murder, says the New York:
Press. For nearly ITO years the
-mutineers of the Bounty and their de-
cendants lived on Pitcairn an ideal
existence. Then q young man named
Christian, descendant of the leadeE3
of the mutineers, killed D. young wom5
an and her little child and threw their
bodies into one of the ocean caves. He
wanted to get rid of the woman and
child in order that he might marry
another young woman on whom he had
cast hie eyes. The rulers OF the
island had decided that if he married
auy one it must be the young woman.
of whose child he was the father:
that, in fact, he was to all intents and
purposes the girls husband. One
evening Christian met the young Woms
an and her child in the forest and
killed them: He was suspected of the.
crime and accused, whereupon he con-
fessCd.
Il was the first capital crime ever
committed on the island, and the
islanders were much excited over it,:
