MRS WILLIAM McNALLY.

The funeral of Mrs Anna McNally, widow of the late William McNally, was attended on Friday afternoon from her late home and was largely attend ed. Rev T. M. Peck, rector of St Jonn's church. oficiated. Thes@.pall- bearers were Bernard Dagnan, Thomas McGrath, s. F. Seeley and Powell See ley. The burial was in the cemetery on Washington Green. Funeral Di- rectors Prindle & Aspinwall had the arrangements in charge. Mrs McNally is survived by three daughters, Mrs Dallas Wyant, Misses May and Lizzie McNally and a son, Charles McNally. Two sons were drowned in a tragic manner about 10 lyears ago while at tempting to cross the brook which flows north of their home when it was at flood tide.

always lived and where they both died a few years later. Their only son, Ed. ward J. Hine, married Sarah K. Senior who with her daughter now occupies the house. E. J. Hine died in 1895.
 Mrs Hines father John Senior, came from England when he was nine teen and was seven weeks on the wat CT. Although the old Senior place was where the Murphy's live near Jay Neltleton's. the family of John Sen for lived for a time at the Tyler place and it was from there that Mrs Hine came to school in East street, her first school days. The house up towards Plum Hill from the Hine house is now lented but known as the Tyler place was owned by Benjamin Hine. His sor, John succeeded him and his daugh- ter, Esther (pronounced E-sther) mar red Captain William Hurlburt and they built the small house further up the hill (Mrs Betsy Clark Hurlburt was the second wife). Justis Parker lived l in this house after the Hines went away and Mir Tyler married his daugh- ter. Across the road was shop where nails were made by hand and down the hill was another shop where hats were made. It was in this old shop that an old Indian who tramped around the country liked to stay. His popular name was Sam Ingen. He made bas- kets and exchanged them for provisions. He was very eccentric as might be ex- pected. When one woman gave him some pork he said "This ain't none of the fattest." At one place he went into the hatchway and stood looking at the corner of the wall to shave himself as if there was a mirror there. He made the old hat shop one of his stop ping places.
 Mrs James Bunnell gives me the fol- lowing about the old Armstrong and Bunnel house where she spent most of her married life. Of course there is nothing about the house to interest the public in general only that it was the home of soldier in the Revolutionary war. It was built by him. James Armstrong and MT Bunnell, my hus- band, were named for him. The car penter's name was Fox and that is all 1 know about him. James Armstrong lived there and died there. His wife was Miriam Mallory, the only survivor of that awful murder that was com mitted near the John Gum place many years ago, of which most of you have heard. Miriam, the oldest daughter, was away from home at that time of her life and>was spared. She lived and dled in the old house at the age of one hundred years. There were seven chil- dren, Sally, Betsey. Polly, Orrin, Noble, William and James. -Four gene rations of Armstrongs have in success sion lived in the old place and no one else. The house is one hundred and fifty years old. It is said of Miriam that she was very fond of horses and rode around horseback until she was very old and managed the horses well although as she said "The pesky boys had been witching with them." t<
 ] find in trying to find out something of these people who have lived and toiled among these firm old hills and have passed away that nothing is more true than that the places that knew them, know them no more.

FOREIGN LAWS AHEAD.
Employers Liability Recognized in
European Countries.

That the United States is far behind
Europe in defining and fixing the liability
Of employers for injuries to their en-
ployes, sustained in the line OF their en-
poyment. is the substance Of a bulletin
issued by the Department Of Commerce
and Labor. OF which Lindley d. Clark is
the author
Practically every foreign country Of
any Importance industrially has by legis-
lation recognized the principle that the
workman is entitled to compensation FOR
injuries from accidents received in the
course OF his employment" says the bull
letin. Twenty-Five foreign states have
enacted such legislation"
Mr.. Clark says that in Europe the laws
in every case fix the compensation 90 be
paid. In most countries. also employers
are permitted 10 contract with state OF
private insurance Institutions for the
transfer of the burden of payment OF
compensation.

H0BS0N GOES TO FLEET.
COngressmen Alarmed When Four

A Warlike movement on the Pacific
Coast that may result in forcing the
Senate to insert a clause in the naval
appropriation bill authorizing four battle
ships is apprehended by persons in Wash

Representative Richmond Pearson Hob
son has started West TO join the fleet at

1t Is reported that the hero Of the Mer-

Mr. Hobson, Il Is said, left Washington
Saturday. He is supposed to be due in
San Francisco to-day.
That the administration is in on the
plot that sent Hobson TO the Pacific;
that Hobson is going there TO start a

four battle ships, and that there is danger
ahead are facts that were set forth by
members Of the House. Just what Hob

IgnOred-PIan No New Legislation.

The "do-nothing" reputation Of the
present session of Congress will be main
Iained. This was the net result OF
meeting OF the Republican Steering COM
mittee Of the Senate. held yesterday.
That there Will be legislation 10 provide
against the recurrence Of a financial
panic was made evident by Senator Al
drich. It is the understanding at tho
Capitol that the House VIII pass some
form Of emergency currency bill. the ba-
sis of which will be the Aldrich bill.
probably with the commercial paper fea-
ture OF the Vreeland bill incorporated IN
Il in modified form. II this is not done.
the Senate will attach the AIdrieh bin as
as an amendment to the financial commits
sion bill to be passed by the House. and
insist upon its retention in conference.
The commission TO investigate the
financial system of the country, however.
it is understood, viii probably consist OF
Members of the two Houses Of Congress
only, the present feeling in Congress be-
ing opposed to civilian commissions au-
thorized 10 instruct Congress regarding
needful legislation.
Four Battle ships Impossible.
Senator Hale made it plain 10 the mem-
bers Of the Steering Committee that only
two battle ships can be authorized at
this session. and that efforts to increase
the programme for the navy would be
useless. Senator Beveridge, Of Indiana,
presented the Presidents views and the
alleged necessity for greater increase
in the navy, but he did not succeed In
changing the attitude of the leaders.
Two battle ships only viii be allowed in
the pending naval appropriation bill
Senator Beveridge made a strong plea
for an enlargement Of the legislative
programme TO include some of the im-
Dortant measures which the President
has. recommended, bat It was like pour
ing water on the pr0verbial ducks back.
Mr. Beveridge warned the Senators pres
ent that failure TO enact some of the
Presidents recommendations into law
would probably react against the party
in the approaching campaign, and that
the "do-nothing' session would be
hard matter to explain TO the people Mr.
Beveridge particularly urged c0nsidera-
ton OF an anti-iniunctlon bill and the
proposed amendments TO the sherman
antitrust law.
Plan No New Legislation.
No decision was reached as to further
legislation OF a constructive character,
however. which means that there VIII be
none other than that already determined
upon. This, outside the appropriation
blls. means simply an emergency cur
rency bill. the employers liability bill al
ready passed, a child labor bill for the
District of Columbia, intended to serve as
an object lesson to the States. and A few
other measures Of no great Importance.
Some action for committee to study the
tariff question, with a view 10 possible
post-election changes, may be authorized,
but whether 1t will be fruitful of any real
results is 10 be doubted
