PROBATE JUDGES
tGreatly Interested In Some Bills
That Are Up In the
Legislature.
Special to News-Democrat.

Columbus, Feb "A meeting of the
probate judges of the state is being held
here, convening this afternoon. They
are here ostensibly for conference on
various matters pertaining to their Of
flee, but as well to look after a couple of
bills which have been introduced in
which they have an absorbing interest.
Their passage will materially extend
the jurisdiction of the probate judges
and enhance the emoluments of their
office. They are house bills Nos. 107 and
10S, by Mr.. Haner, and taken together
so amend existing statutes as to give
the probate court concurrent jurisdic-
tion with the common pleas court in all
proceedings for partition of real estate
and assignment of DOVER and provide
that the probate court shall be allowed
as compensation for the hearing of pro-
ceedings in partition of real estate and
assignment of dover the sum of 81, 1000,
aside from the fees for clerical services
allowed by law for the clerk of the court
of common pleas in similar cases. II
Will be seen that while these bills,
should they become laws, will affect the
office of probate judge favorably, but
will effect adversely clerks of common
pleas courts by cutting off their usual
fees in the adjustment of cases by the
probate court of the class specified.
There are to be seen, therefore. about
the state house, clerks of courts of COM
mon pleas from various counties in the
state looking after their interests.
:, However the two bills referred to are
aNed up for the present In the judiciary
committee, which has in Its hands also
a bill providing that no person shall
be eligible as a candidate for. or be
nelected to, the office of judge of any OF
NAhe courts OF record. who is not an
Rttorney and counsellor at law, duly H.

the city. Albright was the lowest

Remarks at the Funeral of Joe
Turner.
Turner.

~Let not your heart be troubled"
Jesus.
These words have been said and
ssbbed and sung over thousands of
lifeless forms, and millions of the
weary of earth have pillowed their
heads hereon and found them soft
as down. The world has need of
such words, for it is full of trou-
BILE. There are innumerable things
to start the waves of sorrow roll
ing over us. Physical pain is a
fruitful source of sorrow. But
skilled physicians know how to adj
minister the anaesthetic that will
bring relief. Financial reverses
produce grief. But renewed efforts
and helping hands have brought
back prosperity. Disappointment
bring the clouds, black and lower
ing over many sunny life. But
ether appointments have scattered
the clouds and brought back the
sunshine. Blasted hopes have sent
many noble soul into the castle
of Giant Despair. But brighter
hopes have released the captive and
sent all the joy birds singing once
more. All these sorrows find their
specific. Where is the panacea for
human heart troublesp One for
whom you have lived and labored
and loved and suffered, is suddenly
taken away. Some untoward event
with cruel hand snatches the loved
one and leaves your heart crushed
and bleeding-who or what heals
the torn and lacerated feelings2
Friends may weep with you but
they afford no comfort. PhilOso-
ply is futile. Reason is vain.
Grief like MAJ BILE slab, lies heavy
on your bleeding heart. The occa-
sion which calls us here to-day is a
case in point--A son honored, a
brother beloved, a husband adored,
friend esteemed, lies cold in death
in our midst. With his history
you are acquainted-Reared in
your midst you saw him enter upon
life's work with all the ardor and
enthusiasm of strong manhood, and
YOU cheered him on. When he lead
to the altar one of the rarest and
best of earth's fair daughters, you
applauded and wished them joy.
You joyed with them in Christian
association and church fellowship.
And by and by you noteu with
deep solicitude the insidious APP
proach of the fell-destroyer anu
wished them bon voyage in his ev-
cry quest for health until at last
his life went out. What an aching
void his absence has left in all our
hearts. How we shall miss his
loving ministrations and helpful
presence, his CHEEKY ways and sun
ny disposition--and above all the
bright flashes of his kindly, genial
wit! In his demise we are indeed
bereaved, But what must be the
agony of the young wife, so sorely
widowed and broken by this sad
event! Is there cure for such
trouble as thisy Is there balm in
Gilead2 In heavens pharmacopoeia
is there an anaesthetic for this
pain? Yes, Jesus has found and
furnished the cure for human heart
aches. He who wept with a brok-
en- heart at the grave of Lazarus
offers you Heavens panacea for all
cur ills.
The remedy is a compound of
three elements, any one of which is
sufficient to dry sorrows bitterest

Not Dried Currants.

Mother wants pound of dried
currants,' said little girl, who came
into the learned grocer's store in
Eighth avenue.
Il hain't got dried currant in che
store and there hain't none in the
city, replied the learned grocer.
But | know what you want, Sissy, and
I've got en-"
The learned grocer brough. forth a
box Of the little, sticky, sugary, gritty
currants. and which is used in fruit
cake, plum puddipgs, mince pies,
buns and the like.
"Why, them en- exclaimed the
little girl.
YES, them's EN-" assentcd the
grocer, land if the Grecian maiden
who trod this particular lot of EN- into
ship shape had used little water or
even a feather duster on her feet be-
fore she began there wouldn't be SO
much grit in 'em as thore is. She
must have been having regular hoe

began to dance on this box Of fruit.

lore she uses EN-, or she might just

whats the reason they amt dried
currants" demanded q disputative
customer when the girl had gone.
They ain tdried currants any more
than they are dried pumpkins" re-
Piled the grocer. "The reason they
amt dried currants is that they
weren't currants before they were
dried. Good reason enough, ain't it?''
Yes" said the customer, less dis
putative than he was. ''But what
does everybody call them dried cur
rants for, then?"

on him being scholar. Dried cor

"a coriuth is the smallest grape
that grows" replied the learned gro
Ger, "and it lost its name years and
years ago because it was gradually
corrupted into 'currant, which became
also the name Of the acidulated little
berry of our garden, which you might
dry from now until Gabriel sounds his
hozn without getting it nearer the
condition of raisin than a pea is.
This little grape grows al! over the
islands OF the Grecian Archipelago,
and was first exported from Corinth,
and that's what gave it its proper
name. The bunohes don t grow much
bigger than stem OF red currants,
aud they are 80 full Of sugar that
when they are picked and dried in the
sun they actually seem to melt and
run together like gumdrops, and it
takes lot of care and work to scpa-
rate them again. After they are
separated is the time when the Gre

No hydraulic pump could do it better.
If it could we wouldn't have the sand
and grit the maiden's feet mingle
with tho fruit, and without that no
dried corinths are genuine.
"Still, I shall expect folks to come
in here right along and ask for died
currants just the same,'' said The
learned grocer, as he went to wait on
a new customer.-New York Press.
