Obituary.,

The funeral services of Mrs. Mary
Johnson, who died Wednesday, Dec. 7,
at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Engle-
harrison, in Belield, were conducted
Tuesday afternoon at the schoolhouse
by Rev. R J. Kellogg of Dickinson,
in the presence of a large crowd of rela-
tives and friends. Services being con-
cluded, all were allowed the privilege of
once more looking into the face of the
departed, who looked as natural as
though merely sleeping. Indeed, all
could but feel that she was sleeping in
the arms of her Savior.
Six of the deceased's old friends and
associates, L. Christensen, John Peter.
son, Peter Indegaard, John Berenson, E.
White and c. Abrahamson, acted as pail
bearers to convey the remains to the
Bel6eld cemetery, where interment took
place.
Mrs. Johnson was a native of Sweden
coming to this country in 1882, and had
since made her home with her daughter
Mrs. Englehartson. Another daughter
lives in Sweden and a son at Everett
| Wash.
All was done that loving hands coulc
do to stay the cold hand Of death, yet al
in vain. Her race was run; her trial:
ended, and her spirit took its flight from
earth and sorrow to heaven and immor
tai glory.
Mrs. Johnson was much loved by al
for her helpful and atfectionate DISPOSE
ton, and though her kind ministration
will be greatly missed, their loss is he
eternal gain. She is now basking in tn
smiles Of a Savior's love.
Mrs. Englehartson and family wish t
aided them in their time of sorrow ami

Bridge whist Players Fear Big Ex-
pOsures.
The horrid Judge who fined Mrs. j.
L. Harsha, of Beaver Falls, So for gamb-
ling, because she had won money from
another Beaver Falls favorite in game
of bridge whist, has sent tremor
through the ranks OF the bridge whist
devotees in this city.
To be sure, in the Beaver Falls case,
the mother of the victim made a com
plsint, bat most of the Phlladel phia
victims have mothers, too, and there is
no telling when bad loser will begin to
tell tales out OF school and complain to
the courts about the quiet little games
that are going on every day in the sacred
atmosphere of Philsdelphia's fashion
belt.
"I am fonJ of the game" said Mrs.
T. Hollingsworth Andrews, yesterday;
"but l am opposed to it on principle,
and have the same objection to church
fairs, grab bags and other polite gambling
devices for separating the public from its
money.
"I have seen woman 60 away from the
card table almost in state OF collapse" "
chimed in DR.. Andrews, who was nstu-
rally interested In the physiological ef-
feet of the game. "They are too nervous
to play it. Bridge whist is not for their
general health. Then, two, many wom-
en- are not in position to lose $50 or
$50 every time they sit in agame. This
ides of exchanging money is very repug-
nant to Mrs. Andrews and myself
care the stakes high in Philadelphia
They are exceedingly high. once
heard supposedly refined woman re-
remark upon leaving house:
We'll, 1 am out $20, and had a
damned poor dinner to boot "
ayes" said Mrs. Andews, "and have
seen a woman go upstairs to get 40 cents
that she had lost to some nan. Debts of
honor, they call them. It's ridiculous.
That a man or woman either could accep.
the hospitality of host or hostess and
depart from the house many dollars rich
er is incomprehensibic 10 me. Then, too,
there is the practice OF giving checks and
borrowing among the players, which
gives ri,e to bad feeling."..
Cigarettes and liquors have come to be
regular features of bridge whist, and
many young girl hes learned to smoke
and drink at the bridge tables
Considering the hold that bridge has
got on "society" here, it is prehaps not
remarkable that lite friends are afraid
that some one will follow the example of
the Beaver Falls mother and "peach. "

day began an investigation into the re-
ports that have been current, aud some
of which have been published, that q

trict Attorney Jerome went before the

sons connected with large robbery case
that involved the charge Of receiving

case, but would extend to the board o
city magistrates in general.
The inquiry yesterday, 1t was asserted

in payment, many of which have come
back marked "no funds"
1t became known yesterday that sub
penas had been issued for attendance
upon the grand jury for Tuesday next
when the inquiry will be resumed. Th
proceedings yesterday were said to be o
the John Doe character, but there is
rumor about the criminal courts buildinl
that during the testimony the name 0
the magistrate who figured in the lsrcen
case was mentioned. 1t was after ths
that the rumor became current that tn
inquiry was TO become general.

Bars Nearer, My God, to Thee.

Bishop John j. O'Connor, of the
Catholic diocese of Newark, has issued
instructions to the pastors TO the church
es under his direction to discontinue the
singing Of "Nesrer, My God, to Thee, y
and LEAD, Kindly Light" at church
services. The bishop said LEAD, Kind
ly Light" might be sung in the churches
after the conclusion of services, if the
pastort saw fit to permitit, but under no
consideration was "Nearer, My God, to
Thee" to be heard in any church under
his Jurisdiction.
The bishop declared the law of the
church did not permit the singing of any
hymn that is not part of the litnrgical
service, end he added "Nearer, My God,
to Thee" is no more a part of the service
than is "In the Sweet By-and-by." The
hymn is purely sentimental, while
"Lead, Kindly Light, is an aPpesl fol
| spiritual light.
