Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1905-02-03

In Stanpton the other day there
passed away a citizen who was dis.
tinguished in many particulars. lie
was the oldest citizen in the queen
city of the Shenandoah valley; be
was the oldest Odd-Fellow in Vir-
GINA, and possibly in the United
States; he was one of the oldest Of
living Free Masons, and above all, be
Yves such an exemplary citizen that
any State, country or people might
delight to honor him. He wss an
exemplar to all that look for the
best in man, a pattern for and lover
of the youth. No man could be
acquainted with Mr.. A. NJ. Simpson
and not be the better for Though
he might be unconcious of the influ-
epce. lie looked to the writer thirty
years ago, when he first knew him,
as be did the summer just gone when
he was privileged to see him vending
bis quiet way along Staunton's
tborougbfsres. Though ninety-fiye
years of age his intellect was as keen
and his form but little less emaciated
than when twenty years ago the now
departed saint extended the hand of
fellowship to the us in the two orders
be so nobly represented.
Mr. Archibald M. Simpson was
born in Fairfax county on the 10th
day of April, 1910. When quite a
young man he moved to Alexandria,
where he served his apprenticeship as
a shoemaker. At the age of twenty
one he joined Pocahontas Lodge of
Odd Fellows at Alexandria. The
lodge is now defunct, but Mr.. Simp-
son had retained his connection with
the order until the present time. He
had thus been member continu-
ously for nearly seventy-four years,
which is probably the longest service
of any Odd-Fellow in the United
States. He was one of the charter
members and assisted in the institu-
ton of Stanton Lodge, No. As,
which waa organized In January,
1S47. He was then q past grand.
Mr.. Simpson moved from Alex
andria to Winchester, where he en-
gagged in the manufacture of shoes
on his own account. While in Win
chester, in 1884, he married Miss
Mary Barley, who died in 1895 in
Staunton. Mr.. Simpson moved to
Staunton in 1916 and opened an
establishment for the manufacture
of shoes, employing about thirty-6ve
hands. He had but one child, who
is now Chief of Police William NJ.
Simpson. His wife's mother lived to
the ripe age of ninety-six.
Early in life he joined the Metbo-
dist church and had been a member
ever since. In 1853 he joined the
Staunton Lodge of Masons, and was
the Oldest Mason in this lodge, both
as to his age and in point of service.
Up to few days ago DIR. Simpson
was able to go to any place he wished
around the city.

brought out during the trying years of

OF paralysis about two years ago, which
finally terminated in her death. The
funeral services were conducted at the
residence by Rev. Harry l.. Walton and
the interment was in the Buck lot in the

lowing gentlemen were pallbearers: A. S

STEPS ARE TAKEN
TOWARD UNIFIcATioN OF sEcrs
OF THE LUTHERAN CHURCH
Plans Cover the United States and the
Move Is Advanced by the
Grand Council.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 17.-An impor-
tant step toward securing unifcation of
the sects of the Lutheran church in the
United States was taken by the general
council today, wh5a two conferences,
one national and the other internation-
al in scope, at which every synod should
be represented, were suggested to be
held In this country within two years.
IL the plans carry-and there is every
prospect that they will-the confer
ences will be the first united gatherin gs
of Lutherans ever held in America.
The suggestion for the conferences
followed the presentation of a report
from the Rev. DR.. Q. r. Jacobs on the
Lutheran general conference, held re-
Gently in Iowa, and on the triennial in
ternational conference in Germany last
year. DR.. Jacobs recommended that
next year conference be held at some
city in the west to which every Lu-
theran church, irrespective of its ma
tional affiliations, shall be invited.
Through meetings of this nature, -
DR.. Jacobs said, 'the efforts toward
harmonizing the various sects and unit
ing them in the new Evangelical Lu-
theran church of the future will be as
sisted and advanced"
DR.. Spaeth recommended that an in
vitation be extended to the officers of
the triennial international conference
to hold their next conference in the
United States in 1907, and it was inti-
mated that such an invitation would
be accepted.

AMERICAN GOODS
Freely Initiated in the Exploitation
Of ManehurIan Markets.

Washington, d. c., Oct. 17.-Accord-
ington Special Agent Crist, now in the
orient, under the orders of the depart
ment of commerce and labor, the en-
tire field traversed by the Japanese
army in the recent war has been vigor-
ously exploited by the importation of
cotton goods and yarns, tobacco, teas.
matches, mineral waters, vegetables
canned goods and numerous other arti-
cles. He says that the japanese are
apparently about to take complete pos
session of the immense Manchurian
North China and Korean markets by
exporting to those countries every com
modify purchased there.
Many articles. he alleges. are spuri-
GUS limitations of American goods and
are offered under false trade marks.
