In Memoriam

On Thursday OF last week in the
beautiful cemetery of Trinity Church
were laid to rest the mortal remains OF
the late William B. Clagett, Comp
troller of the State Treasury, strong
and intellectual man, public spirited
citizen, loving husband, father and
friend.
Almost in the prime Of life, in the
joyment Of well-earned political honors,
with the confidence Of friends and ad-
mirers, he has passed forever from the
joys of life and from devoted home
circle to the greater and more enduring
happiness of the world beyond the
grave.
Others have spoken Of the achieve
ments of his manhood days, of the ex-
tent of his success in the realm of poi
itics, of his benefactions, of his force
fulness and leadership, but to one who
knew him from his youth there arise
visions of the enthusiasm, loyalty and
ambition of the boy, the dashing gal
lantry and keen sense Of honor in his
maturity, the ripe judgment and pru-
dent counsel, the vigorous energy and
tenacity of purpose that distinguished
him in the midday Of life: and then, as
a crown to all, we see him, mellowed
and strengthened by sorrows and cares,
meeting the obligations that devolved
upon him with courage and fidelity.
When we contemplate the strong points
that stood out so prominently in his
character, it can we'll be said: Peace
be to his ashes, honor to his memory
and rest to his manly soul.
There is consolation to the loved ones
he leaves behind in the assurance that
no true life is ever lost; that duties
well done, that temptations overcome,
bring an exceeding great reward, that
an earnest, useful life, whether ended
at midday, or prolonged far into the
evening shadows, is always worth the
living and that the memory OF such
life is the most precious possession OF
the survivors. F. S.

 was fairly bursting with pride.
 1 But the most remarkable of MT. Hud- sons exploits is yet. to be related-the story of how he fought with King Priem, 1 the wicked Sultan of Zanzibar, and was Instrumental in freeing 15,0O0 slaves whom that iniqutous monarch held captive. T was in the Eggygammon dhe reader, | it might be well to remark, will remen.- Der that Agamemmon is a favorite lame for his majesty's warships) and we were a-blockadin' an a-bombardin' an tryin' to put down the slave trade. The worse time IT had was in a fight with a slave dhow | The naygurs in the dhow fought like de- mons, because they knew that if they were captured they would be either anged at the yard-arm or helse himpris- oned for life.

 1 MT. Hudson left Charleston for Jackson vile on the Clyde liner Huron on Friday night. He is most entertaining conver-
 sationalist, and his story of the exploits
 narrated above was told in so simple and
 Straightforward a fashion and with such
 minuteness of detail that one who heard lhim could not help believing

proof safe. Even the codfish is put up In tnfoil, and there is a gloss cover over the cheese. The nuts are all in snow cases and he oranges in wire baskets, snd the man who tries to while away an hour in grocery can't have any refresh- ments unless he has brought his can open CT and then the doggone all eyed grocer charges up everything he nibbles. TO add insult to injury the modern grocer is all ways reminding his customers that they ought to pay their bills. a matter that refined people don't care to discuss or think about"
 T remember the old fashioned store as well as you do,' observed the grocer. 'Everything was lying around loose, as you say, and customers mauled everything with their hands, The grocer bought all kinds of junk, including wool and hides and rags and leather findings, and these were piled around anywhere, and they filled the air. with fragrance that you could cut into stove lengths. The butter and cheese and such things absorbed that fragrance and tasted like an uprising in China. The grocer had no refrigerator ana when you bought butter you had to carry it in tin pail, and if there was a leak in that pail the butter all ran out.
 "The grocer didn't deliver anything. If you bought sack of flour you had to carry it home yourself. The old guys used to sit around in the evenings and on rainy days, as you say, and tell tiresome stories and smoke rank tobacco; if a woman en- tered the place she had to hold sieve In front of her face or she couldn't breathe
 "Oh, I get sick of hearing of the grand old days when you were young. Things were million times worse than they are now, and grocers were as anxious to get their money then as they are today That reminds me that few dollars on that old account would be very welcome now, as I have some heavy bills to meet"
 ''You shouldn't go into debt, and then you wouldn't have heavy bills to meet.'' said the colonel sternly. 'sIf you paid cash for your goods when you bought them, you would take advantage of the discount and be able to sell to customers at lower prices"

great many lives bein lost. Habout 20 of the Victorias men had rushed to .he stern when the crash came. As she turned turtle they tried to jump overheard into the sea. Hamong them was Leftenant Munroe who only few days before had been transferred to the Victoria from our ship as flag leftenant. We saw him cap over the stern and the next instant his body was cut clean in 'alf by the Victo- ria's propeller, which was still turnin'. Hevery man that jumped over the stern met the same 'orable fate
 ''Wel, she sunk and the water was full of CT men. Pretty soon I seen a cad a bobbin' up and down, an without 'esita tion l ups an jumps overheard. l saved him-he was a able seaman-then I went back halter another one. I saved him, too but I was that exhausted that bx the time l ad brought him to the side of the ship I was about sinkin' myself. Elpin hands just reached us in time. I got a medal for me bravery on this occasion an when I returned to me 'ome in Bolton, Lancashire, l couldn't get hany peace. | was feated and feasted so much that ha. last l had to make me bescape from the bloomin town hin the middle of the night in a kivvered carriage"
 That ought to have been enough heroism to last MT. Hudson for a while, anyhow.

but it wasn't. He was transferred to the Pacific fleet, and, as has been related, he became the champion of the fleet in every sort of athletic sport the calendar and incidentally saved the life of young lady who had fallen overheard in high .ea Tt was after this deed that MT. Hudson learned to beware of newspaper men. It is needless to point out that he is a mod est man and there is nothing that he dis likes more than notoriety of print.
 His rescue of the young lady, who six months afterward became his wife, oc- cured on the Allan Liner Parisian. Quite tunbeknownst' to MT. Hudson, an enter prising reporter for a Liverpool paper took a picture of him and the young 'ady just after the ship had reached her lock, and the first thing that the hero saw when he got to Bolton was his likeness in the paper and that of the lovely maiden whom he had saved from an untimeIy end.
 Dash it all" said MT Hudson, for he saw trouble ahead. And he was not mis- taken for again the good town Of Bolton feteJ and lasted her hero, so that the lat ter, who expected to have a quiet little visit to his pmiy, hardly had any time to spend with them at all.
 In Egypt still greater glory came to MT. Hudson. He was with party of .ca-

There had bsen many skirmishes in which, as Mir. Hud- son modestly admits, he had shown great gallantry. Hearken to his vivid descrip- ton of one of the fiercest of the fights and the incident that won him another medal.
 We charge them and they gave back. When the British soldier charges he isn't afraid of anything. After a while they were re-enforced and turned to face us. We 'ad sharp fight an they were too many for us. We 'ad to retreat to the camp. Hin the runnln fight two of hour men were shot. I stopped an went back an brought both of 'em in thunder a terrible fire. When I was bringin' in the last one I was wounded twice myself, although didn't know hit till hafter- ward.
 l" Whats the matter with you, Udson?' says the surgeon, says he.

THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH
The GrOcer's Lament at the Newfan-
 gled Cans and Packages

From the Chicago News
 I'm just unpacking fine lot of canned and bottled goods,'' said the grocer. If you only had the habit of paying your bills I'd urge you to lay in supply for the winter months.'
 T don't want supply of your dog gone canned goods," growled the colonel.
 I've decided to get back to first princi- pies and buy my groceries as my father bought his groceries. I'm going to buy my pumpkins and potatoes and such things as they come from the vines, ana If can't get them that way I'll go with out them When man buys his fodder in cans he's giving away his hard earned savings to a lot of ravenous middlemen and retailers. bushel of tomatoes in the field is worth maybe half dollar, but if you buy bushel of tomatoes in cans the blamed things cost you three months wages
 Provided you pay for them" said the grocer. Some battle scared veterans of my acquaintance have an unpleasant habit of buying things and then forgetting to pay for them, which custom undermines the retailers faith in human nature But you're always growing about present day conditions. If the grocery of today was like the store your father traded at you d
 howl louder than ever.'
 Thats where you're off," retorted the colonel. ''I remember the village grocery my father traded at as well as though had visited it yesterday. It was the meeting place of many men every evening. and it goes without saying that the men
 who assembled there were all good cus-
 toners. As they sat and talked they ate codfish and nuts and anything that tasted good to them. They filled their pipes from jar of tobacco the grocer provided. My father had passion for red herrings, and the grocer always left Il box where he could reach them. That was the old fashioned idea of hospitality
 The grocer was glad and proud to have his friends and customers drop in of an evening and talk politics and eat things. That policy must have paid. for grocers got rich in those days.
 Nowadays everything is put up in cans and dustproof packages. You never see any pleasant assemblages in the grocery. People won't gather for sociable time in store where everything is in burglar

HUDSON IS KING
 IF REAL HEROES Englishman Has Won All
 Kinds of Medals SAVER OF 105 LIVES William Hudson Has No Hesitation About Telling of the Marvellous Things He Has Done All
 Over the World

From the Charleston News and Courier.
 Richmond Pearson Hobson is regarded by many as the real thing in the naval hero line, while Admiral George Dewey has some admirers, but it seems that neither of them amount to a row of beans when compared with William Hudson
 Saver of 105 lives, liberator of 15,0oo slaves, slayer of countless whirling ter wishes, winner of five hero medals .error of the Sultan of Zanzibar himself-thats what William Hudson says he is and cer- tainly ought to know.
 In addition he was. for four long years champion boxer, champion cricketer and champion football player of her majesty's Pacific fleet He was the real hero of the terrible collision between the Camperdown and the victoria, when 354 men went so {. watery grave with the latter ship, and he played a conspicuous and valiant part in the operations that rendered possible the building of the great Assouan dam.
 All of which proves, of course. tha, Charleston should have felt highly hon ored at having William Hudson for a little while 'in her midst" and that she was woefully remiss when she neglected ito make elaborate preparations for the en- tertainment of so notable a man.
 MT Hudson came to Charleston on the Clyde Liner Algonquin or as he termed the ship, the Algonconda. He intended to sail with the Algonquin that night but he took a little stroll to the navy yard, being a champion walker as well as a champion everything else, and consequently he got left He was obliged to remain here q day and continue on his way to Florida on Friday.
 Tt was like this,''. said MT. Hudson, when his thoughts had been led gently back to the Camperdown-Victor disaster. T was a petty officer on the Camper down an had charge of the little len- zine that hoperated the ships launch--not the hengine that ran the launch, but the henky hengne that osted and lowered hit from the battleship's deck to the water and back hagain. When the two ships struck I was on the mess deck, Now have halways been as cool as a cucumber in haction or hin danger. When the col lision 'appened I never 'esitated min lte l ran to the launch hengine and turned on the power so strong that it broke the securing chains an the launch swung free. Then I lowered away and in an instant she struck the water. The whole thing was done inside of minute. My coolness and presence of mind hin that time hof peril was the cause of more than a 'undred lives bein saved
 T then ran up on deck again. The Vic toria was turnin' turtle. Some of her men tried to climb aboard the Caperdown, but our discipline was that strict that hour marine was ordered to load with ball and shoot hany man that tried to come aboard This order was the cause of
