In Memoriam.

1t becomes our painful duty to offer few
lines as brief tribute to the memory OF a
much beloved brother and loving son.
John l. Granger, devoted husband OF Annie
and son of Mrs A. NJ. Offutt and the late
William F. Granger, departed this life, DC
tober 20, 1899, at his home, Ballston, Va, in
bright hope of eternal life, after briei i'll
ness of typhoid lever He leaves wife and
two children, Mabel Alberta and John
franklin Granger, a mother, five sisters and
two brothers TO mourn his loss.
1t is sad TO see one in the prime of man
hood, and the picture of health, so suddenly
stricken and taken from us after an illness
of just twenty one days.
In his sickness all earthly aid was brought
into requisition to stay the grasp OF death,
but proved of no avail. Eminent physicians,
endowed by nature with medical skill, a
kind and loving wife, mother, sister, and
numerous friends, with the aid of dutilul
trained nurse, Miss Agnes FelOn, ministered
to his wants during his brief but severe ill
ness.
La all of his relations he was kind and
good, considerable of others, and unmindful
of self As a husband be was faithful and
MISUNDERSTANDING his duty, he per
formed it well. He was publicly looked
upon as beyond the average man, and In the
midst of trials he was always patient and
cheerful. Under every cloud he was sure
to find silver lining.
In this sad bereavement we are again
forciby reminded of the iralty OF human lille,
and that VIZ too must die Autumn brings
sadness to most of minds and this October
is the saddest of ours. II is heart rend-
ing thought to know that our loved one was
called to wither with the Autumn leaves TO
form a covering Tor his silent tomb, but alb J
what a consolation knowing that our sOr
row is working for far more eternal glory,
and may we he enabled To look away from
the sadness aud gloom OF earth and by the
eye of faith behold our loved one, and say
though earth seems 80 dark and dTeary we
would not call him back.
The community in which he resided has
lost one OF It's most prominent and respected
citizen, society one of It's brightest orna
ments and the church one Of its efficient
members
His death has cast gloom over large
circle of friends and relatives-it has left an
aching void this world can never fl II, stricken
hearts and desolate homes. 1t is often said,
and truly so IN this case, Death loves shin
ing mark Whilst we weep and grieve and
mourn that he is gone to the tomb, yet we
sorrow not as those having no hope. Let
us ever keep the precious hope that when
we are called from this earth we can meet
our loved ones gone before, and be assured
that we will always have one TO watch and
guard over US forevermore.
His remains were inferred at his former
parish, st Mays Catholic Church, Rock
vile, Md, with Requiem Mass said by
Father Cunnane, pastor OF the church, Mon
day, October %, 1899.

Meant Wen,

The plcasant-faced llind-hearted
young man in the end seat noticed that
the middle-agcd man sitting close to
him was intoxicated.
He noticed also that he was about to
leave the car block or two before
reaching his destination.
With the spirit of self-sacrifce com
mon TO generous, impetuous youth, he
restrained the unfortunate inebrate
and stepped down on the running board
himself for the purpose of assisting
him off the car at the right crossing.
Then his foot slipped.
There was a mudhole handy.
There always is.
The generous-hearted young man fell
into it.
The conductor hurriedly stopped the
car
And then the middle-aged inebriatc
leisurely climbed down, and shouted
with thick-tongued utterance to the
self-sacriiicing young man, who, GOV.
cred with mud, was slowly picking him
selp up:
You - fool Look at me get Off,

TAKES A SHOT AT A BURGLAR
Mrs. HaItermnn Drives Man out OF
Her House and Then Iden-
titles Him.

Mrs May Haltcrmap SAL South Twenty
second street, had an experience sunday
morning about 2:30 o'clock that resulted IN
the arrest of John Lynch and his subsequent
Identification as a midnight intruder. Her
husband is night watchman for the Park
commission and the incident occurred
during his absence.
Mrs Halterman had awakened at about
2 o'clock She had not gone to sleep again
when she felt a draught OF air she was
about to get UP and look to see from whence
it came when she saw a man appear in the
doorway. Thinking it was her husband she
did not speak She saw the man pick up a
chair and move it out of his way. In doing
so she got view of his face from the front
and in profile She decided what she would
do instantly and proceeded to put her plan
into execution by screaming and leapinS
from the bed. The intruder started to run
and she followed, grabbing revolver as she
pursued him. He made for the rear door
and as he was going out she fired but
missed him She followed him out into the
snow in her night dress and bare
feet. He ran behind sand box
and emerged again when he
discovered that she was still pursuing ham'
AS he came out she fired four times at
him without effect. He ran down street so
him. She listened, however, and noticed
| that she could not hear the echo of his foot
steps after he had run about two blocks.
She returned to her house and found that
he had entered through a rear door by
means of a key. She made up her mind
not to report it until she saw the man again
as she was sure she could identify him. She
was down town Monday and met him on
| the street In the meantime the attempted
burglary had been reported to Captain Don
oboe and he sent officers Drummy and
Mitchell out to see Mrs. Halterman. She
| gave them such a definite description of
| the man that they settled upon John Lynch
Immediately, who lives about two blocks
! from the Haltermans. He was arrested and
| Mrs. Halterman saw him at the jail. She
| could not say whether or not she identified
him until he had been placed In exactly the
same positions he occupied al her house
| Then she informed the officers that she was
positive he was the man. He will be charged
with burglary.
