Obituary.
MCCARvILLE:

Mrs. Elizabeth McCarville was born
in County Monohan, Ireland, and passed
away at her home in Cresco on Thurs
day, Oct. II, 1907, having attained the
age of 80 years.
In 1916, in Ireland, she was united in
marriage to Philip McCarville, who
preceded her in death in 1884. They
came to Howard County in 1870 and
made their home near Lourdes. Several
years after the death of her husband,
the deceased moved to Cresco where
she has made her home for several
years with the exception of the year
1906 which was spent at Worthington,
Mimi, where daughter resides.
To mourn the loss of a loving mother
are left eight sons and daughters: Mrs.
Bernard Doherty, of St. Cloud, Mimi,
Mrs. P. J. Martin, of Worthington,
Mimi, and Julia, Thomas, Francis,
Philip, Michael and Richard, of Cresco
and vicinity, all of whom except the
second named were present at the
funeral. In addition to her children,
she leaves 80 grandchildren and IL
great-grandchildren.
The funeral took place on Saturday
forenoon from the Church of the
Assumption with interment in the
Lourdes cemetery where the husband
is buried.
Home is not home for mothers not there,
Angels have taken her out of our care;
Dark is her room, empty her chair,
She's gone to that home SO peaceful and fair
Gone, and the seasons to come and go
Wreathing her grave in blossoms n IL d snow
Snow on her breast that sheltered us so,
Cruel and cold S the bleak winds that blow.
Sleep, mother, sleep. thy tolls are DER,
Sweet be thy rest so oft needed before,
Well we have loved you but God loved you
more:
He called you away to that bright, happy

PENDANT company and its board of
directors. Max d. Steuer appeared for
the defendants and j. Merritt Lane for
the ccmplainants.
The defendant company was organ
lied four years ago to manufacture
matches in competition with the trust.
About a year after it's organization
it purchased a controlling interest | n
the Columbia Match Company, a small
independent concern, and was doing a
fair business when its factory burned.
The place was uninsured, and I'M
mediately after the fire the minority
stockholders of the Columbia Com
pany, who were not given a represen-
tation in the board of directors,
brought suit for the appointment of a
receiver before VII e-Chancellor Emery.
This case was heard about a ear ago,
and more recently the court dismissed
the bill.
While decision was pending appli-
cation was made before Vice-Chancel-
lor Garrison in Jersey City by the COM
plainants named in this suit fora re-
ceiver and a rule to show cause was
granted, Vice-Chancellor Howell hear
ing the return of the cause yesterday
after nearly a rear of postponements.
In his argument Mr.. Lane said the
debts of the company were about
$4,000 and its assets nominal.
Mr.. Steuer argued that while 1t Is
true h company has no assets and
the company is enjoined from transact
ing business. he was prepared to enter
into a stipulation to free the complain
ing stockholders from possible assess
ments IN their stockholdings If they
would end the present litigation.

SINGING BULLETS FAIL
TO STOP FROGS SONG.
Cracking Continues and Residents Are
at Their Wits End to Abate
Nuisance.

For a week or more a large green bull
frog has been making the repose of the
residents In the vicinity of the Central
avenue bridge over the Morris Canal any
thing out peaceful, because of its croak-
ing. A vigilance committee with Joseph
~Ettenberger, jr., as captain, and Joseph
Ditzel as lieutenant patroled the towpath
under the bridge for several nights last
week with shotguns, looking for Mr.. Bull
frog. but were unable to locate him., as
he evidently scented trouble. Anyhow, he
did no croaking while the committee was
on the job.
While a number of boys were swimming
In the canal on Saturday they saw the
green-eysd nuisance. which. they claim,
was as big as a plate and with eyes as
big as hickory nuts. The boys were so
frightened that they forgot to dress them
selves and ran home with their clothes
under their arms.
Mr.. Bullfrog got busy that same night
and croaked from twilight until long
after the Bishops law was being observed.
The vigilance committee was called to
arms. 1t is~said about a dozen shots were
fired at the place from which the noise
emanated. For an hour or so there was
no further sound from the bullfrog, and
the committee began TO feel satisfied that
he was lone for. Not so. There were
more croaks presently. and guns were re-
loaded and the committee stood ready to
fire. but Mr.. Frog did not make known
his presence again during the night.
Mr.. Frog kept still Sunday night, and
was not heard again until 1 o'clock this
morning. about an hour after the vigil
ance committee went off duty.
The committee will try its luck again
tonight.
