In his early manhood lie was called out by the church In its ministry, and served for a year In that capacity, when he came to.the conclusion that he could be more useful to the 'great cause by the devotion of a business life, aiid entered' such as Captain of- the steamer then running between Newark and New York, in which ser- vice lie remained until the service was superseded, when he was appointed to a positlbn In the great Stevens estate, which he held until advancing years made It proper for lilm. to relinquish active business pursuits other than those pertaining to the personal estate of himself and wife, and in the m6nths of-the season, to the.interests of Ocean* Grove, to which institution in varied capacities he never failed .to givo his useful and laborious’ service, Some forty-five years ago he was - united In marriage to,Miss Anna Shra- dy, of Now'York, which union was blessed .with one daughter, named af- ter lier mother, whose marriage to Mr.. W. T. Reeves, a lawyer in New York, gave two boys as gr^ind-cliildren, who altogether have, made a model Chris- tian homo .a New Brunswick.. in Newark he was tlie(special friend, of Dr. Charles Whitaker, and for somoV years was an inmate of hi3 home. In that city lie fionned the acquaintance of Dr. Ballard, then n young preacher In the conference and with whom a personal intimacy whs formed, which only closed when the master called, . “Come,up higher.” He-never gave uphills active Chris- tian work as a local preacher of moro than average ability, and in this ca- pacity was always the pastor’s friend and wise adviser. It was from-another of these personal intimacies born out o f‘personal friendship, that Interested . Dr. Stokes with Dr. Ballard In his val- ue to the Ocean Grove Association, of which body he became a member iti : 1S£0, and. enjoyed their unlimited con- fidence .aiid’fullest respect for all tho \ remaining .years of his lite, giving his summers to the great work contcm- ! plated by that institution, in forma which make It difficult to replace him. . Mi*. VanKlrk came of a sturdy an- • cestry, and Inherited a remarkable vigor of constitution, v.-hich only suc- cumbed at last .after four months of. Intense suffering, resulting from an at- tack of the grip, followed by a severo cold setting in till the>OdH’y organs and centralizing in the heart,; until at last Dr. Baldwin," the medical friend apd adviser for the forty-five years of their New Brunswick residence. ’ was compelled to assure; him that recovery was ’. Impossible. ‘ During the four months of. his confinement no Impa- tient word escaped .hini* His suffer- ings were greatly, aliviated by the de- votion of ills wife and ^laughter, who gaVe In their untiring presence and watchful care* day and night a sense o f; pleasure to him, which brightened all the gloom of his pains. Up to within a short period of his death he cherished the hope of at least one more, summer in lils_ beloved . Ocean Grove; arid In the visits made him by Dr. Ballard frequently so ex- pressed himself, giving special dlrec- 'tlon to the summer preparation of his home. When it became certain that this would never be, he acquiesced; with a joyous patience which took in- to the accdunt the. mansions of the New Jerusalem; He was never . de- monstratively enthusiastic, but in view, of the world .beyond If is soul ox- uited. ’ Ho quoted. “I see a world of spirits bright,” with other of the ex- ultant'hymns of Methodism as his per- sonal experience. At one time, a few days previous to his death, when to all appearance he was entering the land of shadow's, he - came' back to earth with the statement.that ho had been met by a heautifiil spirit who had showed him such glory as ho had nev- er seen and coiild not express, -who told him lie could come back, to earth for a few days more to tell his beloved ones what there wiis for him beyond this life, and then it would come for him again to guide him to his heaven- ly home. Dream or vision, whichever it might be— who knows? At all events It was real to him. and in somo form; there is no doubt, is being veal- led by him now. , When the announcement of coming' departure was raatle to him, ho called his family together, telling his wife that tho hardest trial of all .was sepa- ration, even for the short period of life, from her—hardest for her. for she would be loft alone. For tho ono prec- ious daughter it was the same, except that she had her husband and chil- dren, to the son-in-law and grand- children he gave his blessing. Ho named kindly friends, whom he wished his family specially to remember, specially Bishop Wilson and Dr. Bal- lard. the friend of his youth, as wen ag . later days, and then rested in peaco waiting for the end, which came peace- ful anil calm, as lie entered Into life eternal.

dained, elder in tlie M. E.-Church and ti m em ber: o f tlie Ocean Grove Camp

-M eetin g Associatlpn, passed his ea rli­e r years In Trenton,; N . J., from whero he afterw ard rem oved t,o Newark, and thence to N ew Brunswick, at which- la tter place lie resided from mlddlo life until its close, M ay 13th, 1901, When In liis S2d year he passed from earth to heaven.

In his early manhood lie was called out by the church In its m inistry, and served fo r a ye a r In that capacity, when he came to .th e conclusion that he could be more useful to the 'g rea t cause by the devotion o f a business life , aiid entered ' such as Captain o f - the steam er then running between N ew ark and N ew York , in which ser­v ic e lie remained until the service was superseded, when he was appointed to a positlbn In the g rea t Stevens estate, which he held until advancing years made It proper fo r lilm . to relinquish a c tive business pursuits other than those pertain ing to the personal estate o f h im self and w ife , and in the m6nths of-the season, to the.interests o f Ocean*■ Grove, to which institution in varied capacities he n ever fa iled .to g ivo his useful and laborious’ service,

Som e forty-five years ago he w a s - united In m arriage to,M iss Anna Shra- dy, o f N o w 'Y o rk , which union w as blessed .with one daughter, named a f- te r lie r mother, whose m arriage to Mr.. W . T . R eeves, a law yer in N ew York, ga ve two boys as gr^ind-cliildren, who a ltogether have, made a model Chris­tian homo .a N ew Brunsw ick..

in N ew ark he was t l ie (special fr iend , o f Dr. Charles W h itaker, and for somoV years was an inm ate o f h i3 home. In that c ity lie fionned the acquaintance o f Dr. Ballard, then n young preacher In the conference and with whom a personal intim acy whs form ed, which on ly closed when the m aster called, . “ Come,up h igher.”

H e-n ever gave uphills active Chris­tian w ork as a local preacher o f moro than average ab ility, and in this ca­pacity was a lw ays the pastor’s friend and w ise adviser. I t was from -another o f these personal in tim acies born out o f ‘personal friendship, that Interested . Dr. Stokes with Dr. Ballard In his va l­ue to the Ocean G rove Association, o f which body he becam e a member iti : 1S£0, and. en joyed the ir unlim ited con­fidence .a iid ’ fu llest respect fo r a ll tho \ rem ain ing .years o f his lite, g iv ing his summers to the grea t work contcm- ! plated by that institution, in forma w hich m ake It difficu lt to replace him.. Mi*. V anK lrk cam e o f a sturdy an- • cestry, and Inherited a rem arkable v ig o r o f constitution, v.-hich only suc­cumbed at last .a fte r four months o f. In tense suffering, resu lting from an at­tack o f the grip, fo llow ed by a severo cold setting in t ill the>O dH ’y organs and cen tra liz ing in the heart,; until a t last Dr. Baldwin," the m ed ica l friend apd adviser fo r the forty-five years o f th e ir N ew Brunsw ick residence. ’ was com pelled to assure; him that recovery was ’. Impossible. ‘ During the four months of. his confinem ent no Impa­tien t word escaped .hini* H is suffer­ings w ere greatly, a liv ia ted by the de­votion o f ills w ife and ^laughter, who gaVe In their untiring presence and w atch fu l care* day and n igh t a sense o f ; pleasure to him, which brightened a ll the gloom o f his pains.

Up to within a short period o f his death he cherished the hope o f a t least one m ore, summer in lils_ beloved . Ocean Grove; arid In the v is its made him by Dr. Ballard frequently so ex­pressed himself, g iv in g special dlrec-

'tlon to the summer preparation o f his home. W hen it becam e certain that this would n ever be, he acquiesced; w ith a joyous patience which took in­to the accdunt the. mansions o f the N e w Jerusalem; H e was never . de­m onstratively enthusiastic, but in view, o f the world .beyond If is soul ox- uited. ’ H o quoted. “ I see a world o f spirits bright,” w ith o ther o f the ex­ultant'hym ns o f M ethodism as his per­sonal experience. A t one time, a few days previous to his death, when to a ll appearance he was en tering the land o f shadow's, he - ca m e ' back to earth w ith the sta tem en t.tha t ho had been met by a heautifiil sp irit who had showed him such g lo r y as ho had nev­e r seen and coiild not express, -who told him lie could com e back, to earth fo r a few days m ore to te ll his beloved ones what there w iis fo r him beyond this life , and then it would come fo r him again to guide him to his heaven­ly home. Dream o r vision, w h ichever it m igh t be— who knows? A t a ll even ts It was real to him. and in somo form ; there is no doubt, is being veal- led by him now. ,

W hen the announcem ent o f com in g ' departure was raatle to him, ho called his fam ily together, te llin g his w ife that tho hardest tria l o f a ll .was sepa­ration, even fo r the short period o f life , from her— hardest fo r her. fo r she would be lo ft alone. F o r tho ono prec­ious daughter it w as the same, except that she had her husband and ch il­dren, to the son-in-law and grand­children he gave h is blessing. H o nam ed k indly friends, whom he w ished his fam ily spec ia lly to remem ber, spec ia lly Bishop W ilson and Dr. Bal­lard. the friend o f h is youth, as wen ag . la te r days, and then rested in peaco w a itin g fo r the end, w hich came peace- fu l anil calm, as lie en tered Into l i fe eternal.

• ; Quarter, and I have been told, sincethe building specuhitloiw^werc not so successful, it has been ait(^Ht^aj[iiM^r out In flats. But at thut.dfly it w a^ n high,, w e ll like house, haying a court­yard in the middle, adorned w ith pomegranates In green boxes, where w e sat a fter table d ’hote- aml drank cofCee and cognac. . ■ .’ Mrs. Cherry had a le tter that evening •by the post, and I observed that its receipt crcatod Interest, and I hearjl one, or tw o observations which did not, however, Iti any w ay interpret them­selves to me at tho time. “ Really ;

; a fte r a il?” “ But Is-there tim e?’* “ H ow has it been managed V" and so on.

A nd when I asked w hat projects w ere In v ie w fo r seeing the place next day Mrs. Cherry onljf replied, ‘ ‘Some*

■ tiding w U l suggest itself."• • r Jan. I was a general .holiday, and• from an early hour the streets began

Y to fill, fo r tlte peasants eanjc in from the neighborhood, and all the artisans turned out in their gayest costumes.

. Th e Cherrys had liroaUfus'g^n their own apartments, and I on returning

. from the salle a manger w en t Into my ow n bedroom, which ■wns high up, npd. sat a t the w indow sm oking a ciga-

‘ rette. n ea rin g a nol.se below, I look* ed out*and saw the Cherr.vs starting, w ithout g iv in g me notice. Elleii, how-.

• ever, observed ,mc.V “ W here are you o ff toV” I called

down to her; , ." W e arc going,” she sak l; “ to .walk

in the Canebiere. I t w ill be great fun! (Joine a long!”

Come along? O f course .1.would! I-. snatched up m y hat and a dustcout and oh rushing from m y room observ-. ed slight iron gates and w ithin a lift , stationary. There was no gas In It nor any attendant, and 1 had not no­ticed it before o r heard o f people going

, up or down. But the thought struck me, “ I.m ay as w ell use It, tim e w ill be saved.” Tho gra ting w as unlocked. I

! enteredi took a seat and pulled the rope. T h e l i f t began to destend. D ark­ness, but only fo r a moment or two, nnd then another grating, aiid on—Into tho darkness again. Suddenly I fe lt

’• that the seat I was occupying was los­in g ito horizontal position. It sunk on

’ . ono side. ! There was grievous creak- . Ing,.scraping, crashing and then stop­

page. H a lf w ay between tw o landing places the machine had stuck Im mova-

.r v . b ly fa s tO f course It w as very, aw kw ard, but

there w as apparently no cause Tor. alarm. I knew I should got out In time, but still it m ight h o ‘a longish job.I did not hoar inueii noise nnji conclud­ed I was am ong thick w alls aud not iiotir a grating. Hut there was sotno rum bling and shouts as I thought. In a short time, however; a ll. w as still. ‘ I had not called out, fo r I was anxious to show I was conl arid ti.it disturbed by a trillin g aecideiit o f the sort. In- ilced I had planned to coine out smokr ing.’ for I liad a fnsec and a c igar ease, w ith tiie. A s there \vjis no vent. how-. ever. I put. olT ligh ting tip till m y re­lease w as near til hand. 1 did not wisjh the a ir to. be cl<»si?r than It was.

I had .itUt thought vaguely, “ They wJil get. tne-'uul. .arid. 1 ‘ w ill emerge smoking.” ! I ’ ui. two tilings aliruptly occurred to mo, “ i io w w ill they got yony out?" and theii,; ‘.‘A ro . you su^e tliey* Svill ;h»ok fo r yoti?” D y-heaven ! Th is In fer -Idea became . serious.

It was;eareles's to leave the grnt- l i i g .unlocked/ lliit st ill rhore. w as uo - attendant, as there would have been i f the th in g ^md*been In w ork ing trim. T h ey might perhaps think the l i f t pass­ed down o f Itg own. accord and that no';ono'-was I n i t ; ' •'• •. {• ; ; • )•

In point o f fa c t this was ro. The Cherrys, it seemed, walked s low ly oh and. as I did not fo llow , thought I was engaged and busied themselyt?s about the drama o f the streets. No one was; near when 1 entered the /naehlno, and it had sunk a w ay once before, it was said, .without any one touching it, and indeed it was, disorganized nnd not em­ployed,

The chambermaids w ore a t the w in ­dows, the w aiters at tho door, tho oc­cupants’o f rooms w ore am ong tho gay throng .on the pavements en joy ing the suhshi.ne o f the' south, Which: dnnced in a 'thousand dimplea on tho. bTilo px- pansQ j»f tile ^rediterranenn'.

SOllU'd.

1j'h e Chci'i,y=J w ere out fo r three hours and on returning, finding no trace o f uig trtid hearing o f the fa ll o f the lift, at last conceived the idea that I m ight be inside o f it. * O f course when this suspicion w as jtmce set ..on fo o t there .was great .excitement, but it w as not very easy to do anything. .' In the tlrst place, oil account o f the fete, there w as an unavoidable delay in getting workmen, and when they w ere procured the part o f the wall w here ’ the lift had-'Jammed ran. down amid tiie w alls oC several small apart­ments and behind cupboardsj and to find w h ere 'th e aperture should bo be­gun was no ligh t m atter.. W ith a fiisce l could sec* iny watch. I entered the lift a t I t and .n t.fi wins still there,

‘though the voices w ere close at hand, and the pickaxes s6ctried to be pene­trating the fn im cw ork o f my little box. Even then it appeared long be­fore* fr iend ly hands helped 'm b down in to -th e chamber, whence. I reached fhe body o f the house. . ..

I t w as pleasant being nn object o f feii?_nlo.:V^clridriessYfUid, > solicitude, ;but Dr. Cherry was anxious and d es irous I should keep rpilet. W hen I w en t to bed, I found he; had had .reason for some apprehension'.' Sleep “en tirely de­serted me. and nn ’ access o f rioryous excitem ent' ensued. T w e lv e o'cloclc. strtick and then 1. It was intolerable. I.should be a ltogether tihmanhed w ith­out rest. I had hydrate o f chloral in my portmanteau, butr.-thoro .was. no night light. H o w e v e r , 1 managed to ge t the bottle and the toile t tumbler nnd m easured w ith my finger. The fluid seemed a good deal In drinking, but took e ffect iit once.:

A s a financier I o f long experience lie knows that th e re is a lw ays . danger that ,,t|iese. spcQulati.ve.;.orgies .may d o . grea t damage to the country when the i n ey i table col lapse comes, by nnBet- tling Values m id shaking confldeuce throughout: . business circles. The governm ent .lias no control o ve r these things, but there a rc times when the Secretary o f t h e ' T reasury m ay . do much tow ard preven ting financial trouble o f a serious nature. For that reason Secre ta ry G age kep t a close watch on W a ll s tree t speculations. H e was preptfred to do w hat he* could had the necess ity arisen, but is f/ory glad tiia t in tliis .case lie* was not ca ll­ed on to do anyth ing. H e is still buy­ing short tim e U. S. bonds, w henever they are o ffered a t a price that malcos' it advantageous fo r the governm ent to buy, and w ill continue to do so, be­cause thereby he not on ly puts the m oney t lia t .is: in the .treasury back In­to circulation, bu t saves in terest fo r , tlio governm ent.

Secretary R oot made short work o f o f the officia l ca reer o f a W ar Depart-, ment official, who offered to sell copies of official correspondence 'to the Coun- s.el o f N ee ly , w ho is ciiargdd w ith tlie em lieazlem ent o f Cuban postal funds. T h e /offer w as mado by W . D. WH- liaurs, p riva te secretm-y fo r Col. Ed­wards, Ch ief o f the Insular D ivision of the W ar D epartm ent,.to Judge Lin- say, o f N ew Y o rk ,‘w ho at once report­ed- It to A ttorney-G eneral Knox. De­tectives had no d ifficu lty in tracing the o ffer to W illiam s, w ho acknow ledged his guilt. S ecre tary R oot a t on ce dis­missed him from the governm ent ser­vice, H e would a lso have been prose­cuted, but Inasmuch as the oopies he had offered to s e ll w yre all recovered,- mid would in any even t have been o f no value in the case, it w as'docideu that dism issal w as sufficient punish­m ent. ■ . ■ /

Mr. C. M. Schwab, president* o f the new ly founded s tee l .trust known as the United S tates ^ vec l Company/was ono o f thp 'm ost in teresting w itnesses ye t heard by the Industrial Commis­sion. H e was a ve ry frank and w illin g witness, g iv in g a ll.th a t was asked ex­cept a copy o f the syndicate agree­ment,, which he said he thought was private m atter that he would not care to furnish a t this time. H e said the new company controlled about"76 p e r cent, o f the steel products o f the coun­try, and expressed the opinion that the consolidation under.one head would be beneficial a ll around. W hen asked what e ffect It would have' on prices, ho replied: “ I think the tendency w ill towards som ew hat low er prices. I do not.think there Is a p robab ility o f high­er prices, unless som eth ing unforseen happens." W hen asked what, i f any effect, the ta lk o f tho-.remova! o f the tariff on steel products, would have on his company, he rep lied : "Reduce th e ta riff and tho w ages o f labor w ill lie reduced. Labor form s the la rgest e le­ment. Our g rea tes t exports have been in rails, and b illets, w herein labor Is the least factor com paratively, and not In the lines upon which tho m ost labor is exerted ." W hen asked to state what effect corporate consolidation would h ave on the chances o f men fo r em­ployment, he said': "Opportunitiesw ere never so g rea t before as they are now, for men o f brain and energy, who are w illing, to w ork . T h ere was never so grea t a scarcity o f the special men who aro requ ired by manufactories. Men with such exceptional ab ilities have chances equal to any such men ever had. I doubt, however, I f men with sm all capita l h ave." Ho said tho average wages paid by the Carnegie Company at Hom estead, last year, was $4 a day. T h e low est was yl.5G, but

.Mr. Schwab said ho was ashamed to te ll w hat the h ighest was.

M in ister Conger is in W ashington. H e declines to. discuss the Chinese question, fu rther than -to say that-he thinks it w ill be im possible fo r China to pay the amount o f the indem nity that tho represen ta tives o f the powers

.have decided to demand.W h ile it would be obviously im proper

fo r the D epartm ent o f S tate to take anyn io tice officia lly- o f the constantly repeated reports o f e fforts being made to form a com m ercial* combination o f the grea t European nations, fo r the purpose o f m aking w ar upon Am er­ican ti’ado, o fficia ls o f that departm ent say in p riva te conversation that no such reports would be in circulation, had the Senate ratified the reciprocity treaties n egotiated w ith European na­tions, >as P res iden t M cK in ley, in pub­lic messages and in conversation w ith Senators> r.ePOatedly requested; T h ey add that; in th e ir ' opinion,\ it is - still possible fo r th e Senate to head' b ff any European com m ercia l combinc aga inst us by prom ptly, a t the netft session, ra tify in g such o f those treaties as aro still a live, particu larly that w ith France.

A no ther large congregation w as present in the evening, i t being the ann iversary o f the Epw orth League. A n appropriate discourse was preach­ed by the pastor, from , the te x t 'M a rk 13:34, “ T o ev e ry man his w ork.” i t was a .p ra ctica l/ ' Insp iring appeal to Christian a c t iv ity , . and m ade a v e ry genera l and. ve ry profound im pression on tho m inds o f a ll present.

"T h e bu llet killed the deer, the lock fe ll dowu the1-rattler’s throat and chok­ed him to death, the barrels shot up in­to the a ir and kllied the w ild turkeys, the stock k illed the-;bear by strik ing him, between the eyes, and the. concus­sion threw Uncle Josie backward.

P ee l consulted M llnes as to the course which ho ought to take, accompanying the appetil by the statement ■ that 'for himself, he knew absolutely noth ing’ either o f Mr. Tennyson or M r; Know les.

“ W hat!” said Mllnes. “ H ave you never seen the nnino o t Sheridan Know les on a playb ill?”

“ No,” replied Peel.“ And havo you never read a poem o f
