James murray.

James Murray was born in Canada
qua, N. Y. July 4, 1928 lie came Of
a sturdy Revolutionary parentago, his
great grandfather having been with
Washington at the crossing of the
Delaware. His grandfather was a
soldier in the war Of 1872, his father
in the Mexican war and Mr. Murray
himself upheld his country's honor
during the Civil war.
He was educated in the public
school and the Canadagua academy.
After his graduation he removed TO
Calhoun county, Michigan, where he
taught school. He was married
October 5, 1853, to Hannah Perry,
who, with their two daughters now
mourn the loss Of loving, self
sacrificing husband and father
In 1860 Mr.. Murray was converted
and joined the NJ E. Church and
within year received local preach
ers' license. After the breaking out
Of tho Rebellion, he went into the
Christian Commission rooms at Louis
willie, Kentucky, aftorward entering
the army where he remained until the
close Of the war IN December 1865,
he removed to Kansas, where almost
his first work was to lead in organiz-
ing q Methodist class aud Sunday
school at Ottawa.
In March 1869 he joined the Kan
sas conference which then covered the
whole state.
At the first division he went wi,h
the South Kansas conference Of which
he was a member at the time Of his
death. His ministry was very suc-
cessful one, being blessed By bynumcrous
reyivals and many conversions. Very
few charges where he labored, either
country circuits or city stations, are
without church or a parsonage as a
memorial of bis successful financial
methods and and the zeal with which
his leadership inspired the people.
While tho work Of n Methodist min.
lister on largo circuits in the carly
days Of Kansas entailed many hard
ships and discomforts, his spirit
never faltered
His faith in the state, its possibili-
ties aud its future was abiding and he
was quick to sec the importance Of
seizing strategic points "for Christ
and the church. " During all these
years he was an active leader in the
temperance reform and no one did
more than he to secure or to guard
the prohibitory law. His patriotic
soul believed that living for his
country and its highest interests was
of even more importance than to die
fer it. In 1888 Mr.. Murray was
made superintendent Of Methodist
missions for the Indian Territory
The long drives and the exposure
proved too much for his health and in
1890 he was granted n suporanuated
relation. He then moved to Baldwin,
Kansas, the seat Of Baker University,
where he twice served as mayor aud
for seven years as president Of the
bank.
October 81, Mr. Murray was taken
iii with pneumonia and although
everything which love or medical skill
could do, was done, ho gradually
failed and on the morning Of Novem-
Der l2 TIA, passed. peacefully away at
the home of his youngest daughter,
Mrs. j. II. Hair Of Grants Pass Ore.

One of the Ten Great American In
ventors Selec ed for Distin-
guished Honor at the st.
Louis Exposition,
FATHER OF THE PIANO INDUSTRY
Has Left the Impress of His Genius
on Every High-clas Piano
Produced in America.

Jonas Chickering was bern in 119S. He is one
of Americas ten greatest inventors selected for
distinguished honor at the st. Louis Exposition in
tion of the Louisiana purchase. He
established the Chickering piano mandatory over
eighty .ears ago, and has been dead about fifty
years.
Nevertheless he is one of the imInertals. he
belongs the buried dead of departed past
bat his personality is n vital force of the living
present. In the early part of the eighteenth CEN
tury Stradivarius produced the marvellous violins
that continue objects Of worship. Just a CEN
fury later cpme Chickering with the genius that
made him n the piano Stradivarus TO the vio-
lin. And these names, twins in musical art, will
go singing down the ages.
The impress of Jonas Chickering's genius is upon
every frst-class piano produced in this country
truthfully in the world. The communism of
musical has made Chickering q contributor to
the welfare of millions. His ideas have aided his
fellow and competing craftsmen, have given great
composers improved channel of expression and
aid study, have benefited every grade OF mu
stefan, both professional and amateur. Thus in
true and most happy sense, Jonas Chickering may
he classed as a great benefactor of mankind, ana
especially his fellow Americans.
Stradivarius lives in the survival of the work OF
his hards. Chickering created organized
institution. The corporation Of ChickerinG X Sons
is just really an institution the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company the Metropolitan Museum of
organic spiritual life. \ splendid succession OF
men, artistically and commercially intelligent,
filled with the responsibility of sacred trust,
have continued with constantly growing refine
ment the production of pianos that In competition
of cumulative power have continuously maintained
peerless leadership. Today the variety and per-
lection of the Chickering piano output is greater
than before. Thousands of the children Of
today who fortunate in musical forbears of
the third and fourth generation may get their
teaching in music with Chickering pianos that for
perfection Ct tone. of harmony and OF general con-
struction far beyond the dreams of granddames
and granddaddes.
Have you the beautiful Quarter Grand?
They originated Chickering's. OF course they
are initiated. Chickering's are quite accustomed TO
the hattery of imitation. But the Chickering
Quarter Grand is not reproduced, matched or ap-
preached. Small enough for moderate sized par
Tor or drawing room-a perfect bijou of grand
piano. Large enough for all the qualities that
make concert grand glorious.
Very special is the upright piano-style F.
recently designed and produced.

John Shelton Williams, president of the
Seaboard Air Line, has just returned from
a trip over his lines. He came back to
New York full of enthusiasm. For two

hi optimism

to one of his brokers about the great things
that are doing in the south. The broker

answered with some feeling:
No. l didn't. thank goodness-and they
shoot them on sight down there.''

SENATORS SEE
ABOUT THOSE SEALS
Committee on Territories Will Rec
ommend Passage of the Tawney Bill.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. I'll
Henry w. Elliott, of Cleveland, Ohio,
who for many years has been inter-
ested in the fur seals Of Alaska, has
recently been called to Washington by
members of the senate committee on
territories. -Four members of this
committee - Senators Dillingham;.
Burnham, Nelson and Patterson
visited Alaska last summer and in
Vesugated the seal islands and fur in
dustry. In its report to be submitted
soon after the assembling of congress
it is expected that the committee will
recommend the passage of the TaWney
bill which passed the house last con-
gress, but failed in the senate on ac-
count of the statehood bill.
This measure empowered the presi-
dent to conclude negotiations with the
government of Great Britain for a
review of the condition of affairs re-
1ating to the protection of bearing
animals in the Bering sea country to
determine what further regulations
shall be ordered to restore the industry
pending the investigation authorized
the president, to conduct modus
VIYendi with Great Britain, whereby
the killing of any or all fur bearing
seals on the land or the. sea by the
subjects of the respective governments
should be entirely prohibited except
the few hundred young male seals
needed for the natives of the Islands
of st. Paul and st. George for food.
In the event that effectual regulations
Tor preserving the Alaskan seal herd
could not be agreed on, the secretary
OF the treasury was authorized to kill
every fur seal of the PribiaI of islands.
except IO,OoO females and /, 900 males.

be pushed for the place that was left
vacant by the retirement of his friend,
Castle. He was regarded as Castles
political heir and it was known that
the retiring captain would forward the
fortunes of the. comptroller if it
were thought the better policy. The
fact that Capt. Castles standing with
the administration was not certain
prevented any action beng taken in the
open, and the trouble in the G. A. r.
over Capt. McCardy's attitude in the
memorial monument matter made it
desirable to proceed with caution in
order that McCardy's opponent might
not be aroused to action.
1t is regarded here as quite probable
that Senator Nelson's disinclination to
indorse McCardy is based on protests
from the members of Garfield post,
who make no attempt to dissemble
their antagonism to the captain.
j. j. McCardy was comptroller of st.
Paul for ten years, retiring in 1902, and
was regarded as a political power while
he was in office. He has been engaged
In private business since his retire
ment, but came much into the public
eye when Garfield post protested
against his action in the memorial

BURGLARS BOLDLY
ROB A FUR STORE
Back Wagon Up to Front Door
and Take Away $1,000
Worth of Goods.

While scores of people We're hurrying
by the building at $50 o'clock last
night, four bold thieves looted the fur
store of Zeiler Brothers, at1701 South
Franklin avenue, Minneapolis.
The men backed a dray up to the
concerns front door and loaded the
wagon with eleven fur overcoats and
seven sealskins, in al sa1ued at $1,000.
So bold was the act of the robbers
that no one interfered with their work,
and it was not until the policeman on
the beat found the door open thirty
minutes later, that the robbery was
found out.
More than fifty people saw the
thieves load the overcoats and skins
onto the dray. But the men worked
with such assurance that the wit
nesses to the robbery thought that the
perpetrators We're workmen in the en-
ploy Of the company.
Even when the loot was loaded the
men did not hurry, but drove away
leisurely. When members Of the firm
were notified of the robbery they at
once examined the stock and after
checking up, placed the loss at $1,000.
The police think that the work was
done by professions crooks, who have
been operating in Minneapolis for
several weeks.

MUST NOT PICKET
HOUSES OF MOURNING
Chicaao's Chief of Police Is.
sues a Stringent Order
Peace Plans Launched.

CHICAGO, Dec. 21. - Picketing Of
houses from which funerals are to
start, whether peaceful or violent, by
union livery drivers, who went on
strike four days ago, and which has
seriously interfered with the burial Of
the dead in Chicago, is to be prevented
by the police under direct orders issued
tonight by Chief Of Police O'Neil. j.
r. Wadsworth, secretary, and Charles
Stevens, business agent of the Livery
mems union, were summoned before
Chief O'Neil tonight and told in plain
language that any differences the union
might have would have to be settled
away from the houses of mourning.
This picketing of the homes from
which funerals are being held is be-
yond the liberation of civilized COM
munity,'' said Chief O'Neil. your zeal
has carried you beyond the pale Of en-
durance, and such an unheard- of
thing as carrying labor troubles to the
houses of the dead will not be allowed
by the police. Under no circumstances
will I permit picketing of any kind
around a house where a funeral is to
proceed. 1t ought not to be necessary
for me to take this step. Law or no
law. picketing of every kind around
these houses will have to stop. l shall
take my chances if my conduct is
questioned in any court
Chief O'Neil then issued a general
order to all the inspectors of police on
the line of his conversation with the
union officials. He instructed the COM
manding officers to accompany funer-
ais in carriages, if circumstances SEEM
ed to require it, to see that the last
rites of the dead were in no way in
terfered with
Peace plans looking to a settlement
of the strike have been launched.
Through the efforts of the Chicago
board of arbitration, a committee of
four was appointed at a meeting of
the four Liverymen and Undertakers'
associations to meet with a committee
Of four from the Drivers union and
endeavor to bring about an amieable
adjustment.
