OBITUARY.

In the passing from this. to the world beyond
of Alfred E Chase, life and career of marked
a 1ility and honor is returned to the great
Giver of all life. IN Brooks, the place of his
birth, Sept. 13. 1856, his entire life had been
spent. Entering business with his father as
mere lad, he became familiarly known as "Allie
Chase" and throughout the entire business life
of the firm or company by this lad name he
was known. in Portland and in Boston. His
purity of purpose, his own innocence of wrong.
and trustful confidence of associates and GUS
toners, fittingly refused to change the name
which they had always known as a synonym of
affection and honor. If God had spared him to
US another score of years we should still have
known him as "Allie Chase" AS head of
great business composed of both large and
small units. full of vexatious detail, Involving
extensive credit, not infrequently more secure
than "casting bread upon the waters" his bus,-
ness activities were spent in the pursuit of it:
greed. avarice and oppression we're unknown

charity, was bis business creed. While as
siouously engrossed in his business. he vet
found time and strength for the support of
every religious, moral and uplifting effort for
the improvement and welfare of his communi
ty, dispensing hand and heart material and
sympathetic for the unfortunate and needy.
What more enduring and satisfying monument
can be erected to his sacred memory than to
commend TO the lads of today, as their mooel
of character, this life of simple purity, which
has made US all better because it was lived
Mr., Chase died in Portland, Aug. 17lh at his
home on Cumberland avenue. He is survived
by his wife, Lizzie M. Chase; by a daughter,
Marie l.. Chase, who has been engaged in Y.
W. Z. A, work in Portland for considerable
time, and by one son. Millard F. Chase of Bos-
ton. The funeral services were conducted at
Wilde Memorial Chapel. Aug. 18th, and were
conducted by Rev. Jas. F. Albion, d d. Burial
Was at Evergreen Cemetery.
Largely attended memorial services were
held at the Union Church, Brooks. August

beloved former pastor of the church. officiat-

character and memory of the deceased. Touch
ing and appropriate remarks were also made
by Rev F. S. Dolliff of Jackson, and beautiful
solos were rendered by Miss Edith Hobbs
From the business associates of Mr. Chase
we have received an obituary which we are un-
able to print in this issue, but while in part
covered by the foregoing it will be published

NO COMBINE HERE
TO PUT UP PRICES
United In Buying and Storing
Potatoes Entirely Erroneous.

The impression gotten by the House
wives League that an association OF
Richmond dealers in Irish potatoes
had bought up S250.000 worth of po-
tatoes and put them in storage APP
pears to have been due to a misun-
Outstanding. The Virginian is assured
that there has been no combina ton
of Richmond dealers in storing pota-
toes, and SO far as is known, Rich
mond dealers have not stored. GER
tainly not to any considerable extent.
Potatoes have been too high all the
season to encourage storing by dealers
here.
An investigation made by The Vir-
ginian shows that the impression con-
veyed to the Housewives League and
made public that Richmond men were
storing largely with hope Of realiz-
ing advanced prices grew out of a
statement made by merchant to his
wife that he understood that one or
more men in another city not In
Richmond. had bought and stored
$2b0,000 worth of potatoes.
Richmonds wholesale merchants
are not. so far as The Virginian can
learn, using present conditions to put
up prices. The prices here are con-
trolled to greater extent by the
markets of other cities and what has
to be paid for potatoes brought here
than by the homegrown supply.
