About Some Fast Ships.

They We're talking about the old
barge Mohican. now lying in Rotten
Row. on the Eva side of this harbor,
yesterday afternoon. and the men who
go down to the sea in ships all agreed
that in her day. she was one of the
fastest boats along the Coast.
BY the way. said one of them.
Captain Lord. who was skipper of
that boat almost forty years ago. is
now up in Frisco. And he likes TO
tell Of the fast trips he made in her,
too. The old Mohican was a mighty
good wagon IN her day. She could
show clean pair Of heels to good
many boats that sailed this ocean
But" said another skipper, did
you ever near of the record trip of
the old British ship Seafean1. which,
in 1872, think. went from San Fran
cisco to Liverpool in seyenty-eight
days. l think that was the time she
made. but I am not absolutely GER
tain. She raced a couple of Ameri-
can clippers and beat them SO badly
that she was on her return voyage
before they arrived in Liverpool That
was certainly a record for fast pas
sages From dock to dock. San Fran
cisco to Liverpool. in seventy-eight

public square and they ought to show
their appreciation by giving the boys
the encouragement Of their presence

The funeral services OF the late Mrs.
Mccurdy, of whose death we gave
short accoust in our lf st issue, took
place on Saturday afternoon at O'Clock
from the parsonage on West King
street and the remains were taken TO
Baltimore on b. & Q train No.
8 that evening and were taken 10 the
home OF Mr.. Robert McCurdy on Har-
lem avenue from whence the inter-
ment took place on Monday forenoon
ut 10 o'clock
The funeral services here were in the
hands of Or. +. NJ. Woods, of the
Presb sterian church who was assisted
bv the other ministers of the town.
The pallbeafers here were from the
board of deaeons of the Fret Baptist
church, of which her husband, Rev.
William ID. McCurdy, is pastor. They
were Messrs.IF >. Emmert, j. l.. Sci
bert, J. Frank Thompson, Thomas
Kearns, X. X. Seibert, and Fred
Graichen.
Mrs. McCurdy has been resident
of thls city since her husband was
called to the passionate of the Baptist
church aud there was probably never
a lady in this community who made so
many friends or who was more univer-
sally loved and respected than she.
She was a consistent christian woman,
was devoted to the work Of the church,
WAS true helpmate for her hns-
band and took deep interest in his
PASTORAL work. She frequently accom-
panied him and assisted in his work
by singing the beautiful hymns of
praise of whieh she was so fond. Being
gifted as vocalist her solos were
greatly enjoyed and very popular.
She was ever active in religious work.
She was the first executive head of the
ladies auxiliary Of the Y. M. 9. A. and
did excellent work for that institution.
She will be lgreatly missed in church
circles aud in charity work Of all
kinds where she always took a leading
pert. She was cultured lady,
presided over her home with charm
iEg grace and dispensed a most cordial
hospitality.
TO the bereaved husband aud child
ren the entire community extends the
most sincere coincidence.
