Navy Depastment Considers Doing
Away sviGA BrOadside TOrpe-
does ON WaEahiDs.

The navy department is considering
the desirability of abandoning the
broadside torpedoes now generally in
use on war vessels. These itorpedoes
are fired from submerged tubes,
ranged ON the ship, and IN case they
are given up by the American navy it
will be q marked departure from the
existing standard of naval construc-
ton. 1t was intended to have two of
the broadside torpedoes on each of the
new battleships and armored cruisers,
but the board Of construction is con-
sidering the advisability of emitting
them entirely. The tubes and the ma
chinery of firing them take up much
room, and each costs about $4,000 to
$4,000. 1t is chiefly in the interest of
economizing space that the present
change is contemplated.

burial place into a beautiful ceme-
terry, having spent great deal of
time and labor upon it, beautifying
it with flowers, of which he was a
great lover.
He had always been a man with a
strong constitution and had been
able to withstand great many hard
ships. But in latter years he met
with financial reverses which weigh
ed SO heavily upon his mind that
those nearest him had observed that
he was giving away under the great
mental strain. He was implored to
shift the labor and care upon younger
shoulders, but he deferred action un.
til too late. And now he has gone
where there are no struggles, nc
hardships to endure.
| And this is death the curtain drawn,
The vacant couch where late he lay,
| And breathed his suffering life away;
The vanished footsteps on the lawn.
| The stiffness of the empty room.
The vision of the form laid low,
The sombre pail Of voiceless woe;
The broken circle Of the home.
| 1t is not the fond goodnight,
While all beneath the roof still dwell;
1t is the long and last farewell,
To meet but in the fields of light.
The bourne is crossed and life is DER;
| All tears of grief are vainly shed.
The narrow house yields not its dead
The darkened heart shall beat no more.

Obituary.

Charles Boiles rEdwards,' Oldest son
of Robert and Elizabeth Edwards,
WAS born in the valley of the Brandy.
wine, Londonderry township, Chester
,oountv, Penn, March 3, 1888, and
died May IL, 1901, at his home near
Careytown, aged SO years, 2 months
and 9,dAys.
His father emigrated to this
country in the year 1887, the journey
being made in an old-fashioned,
covered two horse wagon, night as
well as day being spent in the wagon.
They reached their destination June
g, having been a little over three
weeks on their journey. Although
the deceased was but four years old
the trip made a great impression on
his youthful mind and in after years
he could relate many incidents con-
cerning it. The route was by the
way of Pittsburg, Wheeling and
Circleville. He was the second child
in family of eight, four boys and
four girls, of whom only three sur
vive him, two sisters, Mrs. Lydia
Horsman and Mrs. Abigail Larkin, of
Lexington, and one brother, Jesse, of
Leesburg.
On reaching the age of 2l he left
home and began to learn the carpen-
ter trade working with Washington
Blackburn. He followed his trade
for four years, when he engaged in
farming, which he followed the re-
mainder of his life.
He was married March 3, 1857, to
Mary Holmes and went to house
keeping with her aunt, Martha Hus-
sey, at the place where he resided at
the time of his death. To them were
born nine children, five boys and four
girls. All were permitted to be pre-
sent at his bedside at the last mo-
ment except Carl, who had enlisted
in the: 3sth u. S. v. I. for. service in
the Philippine Islands, and at the
present time is located at Sibalom,
Panay Island, in the Philippine
group. AS his regiment is scheduled
to leave for the United States, May
20, it was the ardent desire of the
family that they might be united
once more, but now father is gone.
He always took great interest in
matters and many have
been heard to remark that he was the
best authority in the county on mat
ters concerning it. One of hissgreat-
est desires was that his children
should take advantage of every
educational opportunity offered, and
his house was always filed with the
best literature to be secured. On
matters of public interest he was a
man of very decided opinions and
fearlessly defended them at all times.
In private life he was never known to
speak i'll of. any one, and in the fam
lily circle he was of an affectionate
and father will be sadly
missed by children and mother. He
loved children and always enjoyed the
company of his Igrandchilden. They
never went to his home without
romp with grandpa.
In his religious opinions he was not
demonstrative, but had a strong faith
in an overruling providence and
great contempt for anything border
ing on infidelity or speaking lightly
of sacred things. In past years he
was very liberal to all religious de-
nominations often giving beyond his
means. 1t has been one of his chief
aims to convert the old Auburn
