A lot of cherry pits which were
thrown away on an ash pile were
found by the birds and every one car
ried away-eaten, we suppose. We
are curious to know why these birds
robins, catbirds, brown thrashers and
blue jays-cared for these bare cherry
stones when they could not digest
them. Perhaps it was that innate bird
depravity which makes them want to
gobble everything belonging to the
cherry whenever they find it.

Communicated.
1t is not within the province of the So
ciety of Friends to eulogize the departed
members of their household of faith, but
it is fitting and proper that life earn
estly, faithfully, piously lived should be
SO noted that others, who may not have
been privileged to share the wise counsels,
to be cheered by the honest words OF
commentator or safely set right by the
kind criticism, should realize that the
best of life may be lived by the plain,
uupretentious citizen. Such an one we
feel has passed away in our friend and CO.
laborer Joseph H. Lincoln. The COM
munity has lost one of its most esteemed
citizens, the family circle loving and
trusted brother, the home faithful, low
ing husband and father, the Society of
Friends valued member whose place
cannot be filled. Most zealously has he
guarded the principles and customs of
this religious organization, anxious and
careful lest any inroads should be made
that might tend to weaken the great
spiritual truths for which the "Children
of the Light" have stood since the days
of George Fox, yet ever mindful of the
great principles of federation for which
the Society stands. A true friend to the
needy; a true Friend as the testimonies of
this sect defines one. A good man
Whose daily life far better understood
In deeds than words. was simply doing good;
So calm, so constant was his Iectitude
That by his loss alone be know his worth.

Death Of a publisher.

Mr.. Edwin F. Abel, president
of the A. s. Abel Company, pub
fishers OF the Sun of Baltimore,
died at 5 o'clock Sunday morning
at his city residence, at the north
east corner of Charles and Preston
streets, aged ga years. He was the
Oldest and last surviving son of the
late A. S. Abel and in connection
with his newspaper duties he also
had general direction of the Abel
estate.
Mr.. Abell's illness, which prov
ed fatal, began shortly after the
disastrous fire in Baltimore three
weeks ago.
At the age of Is Mr.. Abel en-
tered the counting room of the Sun,
and from that time until a few
years ago had been continuously
associated with its management.
For years he outlined the editorial
and business policy of the paper,
and managed to keep well out of
the public eye while so doing. 1t
is doubtful whether any other man
occupying so commanding a posi-
ton had.his personality so success
fully screened. He assumed full
direction of the Sun upon the
death of his brother, George w.
Abel, in 1894. Until that time he
had given much of his attention to
his fathers estate.
Mr.. Abel was twice married,
his first wife being a daughter of
the late Henry r. Curtley, and his
widow a daughter of the late Francis
B. Laurenson. Mr.. Abel leaves
by his former marriage two sens,
Arunah s. Abel, and w. W.
Abel, who have been associated
with him in business for some
years, and a daughter, Mrs. James
Dudley Morgan, of Washington,
d. G.
Mr.. Walter W. Abel, who has
for some time past been the active
director of the Sun, will continue
in charge of the publication.

The Fire Eye. ="

Baltimore has a new malady-
the 'sfire eye." This new ailment
has come, it is stated, with the
handling of the debris and the
throwing of walls in the burned
district. The great clouds of dust
that arise seem to contain some
chemical irritant very painful to
some people. Sore eyes are now
in order. The symptoms are like
the pink eye troubles that held
sway several years ago. AS the
season advances it is likely that
the sire eye" will become more
prevalent.
