Mrs. II. II. Van Horn and of Mrs. S.
b. Bray, of this city, died at his home
in Philadelphia on Saturday last. Mr..
Warner was known by many of our
citizens, he having been an occasional
visitor here for several years past. He
was for many years prominent bust

the manufacture of combs, etc. He
was very pleasant and intelligent
gentleman.

turer, died of heart disease Mt his resi-
dence, 1947 North Marshall street, on
Saturday, in his 18th year. Mr.. War
ner was born in this city, and was a son
of Edward Warner, who was also en-
gagged in the manufacture Of combs
He was lineal descendant Of Daniel
Warner, who came to America from
EnEIhuu uDOuI buS ulutilt VI lIlt SCNtu-
teenth century to survey land for the
English crown. For these services he
received large grant of land in Con
necticut, the original deed still being
in possession of the family.
The Warner family, who were Moray
ians, settled at Nazareth, this State,
and Edward Il. Warmers father was a
cousin of ex-President John Adams.
Edward Warner learned the trade of
combmaker and engaged in business
for himself, and afterward associated
with Jacob Walton in the manufacture
of horn combs. at 1349 Howard street,
subsequently removing their factory to
frankfort. In 1876 Mr.. Warner dis
posed of his interests to his partner,
and had since been living retired. He
was staunch Democrat and promi-
nent as an Odd Fellow, and was
charter member Of Heneosis Adelphon
Lodge, No. 90. He also took an active
interest in the Kensington Literary
Society. His widow and the following
children survive: Edward f. Warner,

Company F, Second Regiment, (late
Co. G, 18th Regt. of this city, was in
spected last (Tuesday) evening by Col.
ID. b. Murphy, Brigade Inspector, and
Colonel Thomas S. Chambers, Assis-
tant Adjutant General The present
strength of the Company is as follows !:
One captain, one first lieutenant, one
second lieutenant, five sergeants, five
corporals, two musicians and fifty
three privates All the members were
present last night, excepting seven /;
one being sick, three absent on fur
Tough, and three absent without leave.
1t was one Of the best inspections the
Company ever had. After inspection,
Colonel Murphy complimented the
boys upon their soldierly appearance
and the condition Of arms and armory.
He said this was the last time he would
ever inspect them, az he had been ap-
pointed Division Inspector on General
Sewell's staff. Colonel Chambers then
made few remarks, after which Cap
tain Van Solver, who, on account Of
the disbanding of the 18th Regiment,
has been retired, said few parting
words, referring to Colonel A. W.
Angel, with whom he was first associat-
ed in military capacity, over twenty
four years ago.
The members Of the Company have
shown new interest since, receiving
their new rifles and the return Of men
who enlisted during the war, and the
officers of the Company have great
hopes Of bringing the command up to
compare favorably with any in the
! State.

FACTS"

Mr.. EDIroR:-A communication un-
der the above heading, and signed "a
Member of the Band" appeared in last
weeks Wage Worker, as follows:
EDITOR OF WAGE WORKER Liberty
Band offered their services to the G..
A. r. to play on Memorial Day at the
same price as last year. OF course,
when wanted all day, the price is more
than for half day. A small fee was
added for all day. But the Post has
refused the offer made them, not tax
ing into consideration that Liberty
Band played last year ON the Sunday
before Memorial Day, and also at their
flag raising, free of charge.
That the public may know why Post
20 did not engage Liberty Band this
year, we will merely say it was because
they asked price away out of reason,
which, if paid, would not allow the
Post sufficient funds to meet the ex-
penses of Memorial Day. We have
been paying Liberty Band for several
years past from $50 to $35 on each oc-
casion, and this year they asked SAL. %.
The Post receives annually from Com
mon Council, for the purpose of de-
fraying the expenses of Memorial Day,
the sum of $50, and from the Board of
Freeholders $e5. Out of this $40 the
Post must pay band, hire carriages,
buy flags twelve dozen or more1, erect
n stand, buy flowers, and meet other
expenses, requiring economy to make
the appropriations meet the expenses.
Memorial Day is an occasion that MEM
bers of both the Band and Post cole
brate, and why the Post members
should go down in their pockets in
order to pay the Band members good
days wages for playing half-dozen
tunes, is beyond our imagination. In
stead of playing call day" as stated
by "a Member of the Band" all that
was asked of them was to turn ont
about two hours in the morning and
three hours in the afternoon. During
these five hours they would play
Judging from former years from eight
to ten pieces, costing the Post from
"a to s. tune.
Numerous citizens, including mem
bers of Common Council, have fire.
quently said in the past that the Post
was foolish to pay so much money for
the services of Band, and this year,
the price being higher than ever be-
fore, We have taken their advice and
gone away from home for music
"a Member OF the Band also says
the Post did not take "into considera-
ton that Liberty Band played last
year on the Sunday before Memorial
Day, and also Mt their flag raising, free
of charge" On both of these occa-
sions Liberty Band offered their ser
vices free of charge, and it is rather
cheeky for them to come out Mt this
time and ask pay for the services then
rendered by lacking to their usual
Memorial Day price an extra ten-dollar

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease, and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by +. J. Cheney Co,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. II is taken internally in a
dose from 10 drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts
directly on the blood and mucous surfaces Of

AN OLD RECEIPT.

Mr.. w. II. Wilmot, of this city, is
the possessor of very old secretary,
formerly the property of the late Will
liam McCready. This secretary has
three secret drawers, one of which,
evidently, had not been discovered by
more recent possessors, for it was fill
ed with receipts and other papers of
ancient date when Mr.. W. opened it a
day or two ago. One of these was as
follows:
Reed Sept. eth, 1895, of Mr.. -
Herald by the hands of Mr. Lands,
two Dollars duty on his riding chair,
with top, for the present year.

A "riding chair" is said to have
been sort of gig to which horse was
attached. People who complain of
taxation nova days would think it
very oppressive if they were required
to pay special yearly tax of two dol
lars on light carriage or Il bicycle.
Tho following were also among the
papers found:
