All th a t was mortal of G en. W illiam J . Sewell waa consigned to the tom b on Tuesday. The Nation and .State alike paid honor to the fallen soldier and s ta tes-1 man. Business in Camdon was practi­cally suspended from 10 o'clock in tho morning un til 2 in the afternoon. A t . the Sewell home, 020 Cooper atreet, thou- ' sanda viewed the remains. At an early hour the front doors were opened and tho crowd, k e p ts in line by a num ber of po­licemen, was allowed to pass rapidly, bu t silently, past the casket in the halhvay and through a side door to the street. The wasted form of th e dead General lay ' in a casket of black, lined,w ith w hite ., The body .was dressed in a Major-Goner- al’a uniform. At its lefts ide lay a sword and a t th e foot the. dead soldier’s h a t rested upon ai» American /lug and his old v brigade flag. At e ither end of the casket, as motionless as a statue, and in a ttitu d e of “ present array,” stood a uniform ed : m em ber of the National Guard of New Jersey.'--' / “;,’•••••'

: I t This p a rticu la r scow had been bu ilt by Am erican ship carpen ters sen t es­pecially from th e United S ta te s a t g rea t ex p en se .. T here was' not ano ther scow In th e en iire harbor, a iid about', n il o f tho heavy ‘rlvec w ork to be done fo r th e c ity and p lan ta tions and min­in g com panies w as done by th is , one vessel. I ts loss, therefore, would have: been not-only a severe one fo r the own- c t, who had a monopoly o f tlie busi­ness lu those days, bu t it would have been little abort o f a national calam ­ity . •' “One day , w h ile .th e scow w as a n ­chored In mids'tream, one of thosesm ashing black squalls fo r w hich the trop ics a re fumpua broke over the r lv \ c rT,and fo r tw enty^.uilnutes you could

To most o f us th e re seemed abou t as much chance of ra is ing th e vessel ns therew ould be to ra ise an ocean steam ersu n k In th e middle of the A tlantic.• “ I t w as abou t, th is tim e th a t the ’•young engineer took a hand in th e - •problem. l ie asked the dim ensions of th e scow and Was told th a t it w as 12 by GO feet, and then lie announced th a t If th e ow ner would provide him w ith fo u r men he would ra ise th e scow for a certain sum of money. T he bargain w ns made, though the con tracto r re­fused to say how he would go a bou t, th e job.

“ Now, you m ust know, th n t aside from the ebb and flood tide, w hich a l­te rn a te every six hours, .there Is also '

T he title an d entailed e sta te would go, of course, to h is e ldest son, m y uncle, bu t "the g rea te r p a r t o f h is vast w ealth would come to inc., In fac t, he bad so de­clared. I had lost botli pa ren ts w hen b u t a child, and I had grow n to man-! hood under his Im m ediate care, fo r he had long been a widower; My fa th e r bad been h is favorite son, W hat more

■ n a tu ra l than th a t I fihould.be the pre­fe rred one? T here w as : th is under­standing, however, betw een my graud-.

'f a th e r a n d m yself: I m ust never m arry w ithou t h ls-approvali M arry !. I had no though t of it. My rollicking b a ch ­elor life pleased , m e too w ell to ex­change It fo r any other.

And th a t so rt o f existence lasted un ­til r w as tw enty-seven, an d then It w as b rought to an a b ru p t close by— w h a t do you suppose? W ell, a girl'd

•face, no th ing more—a g irl's face seen fo r a b rie f m om ent only a t a w indow as I w as changing carriages a t Bolton statlou . You smile. I don’t wonder, bu t I declare to you th a t from thence­fo rth I knew no peace o f m ind. T h a t face w as ever before me, looking o u t from under a da in ty g y p sy . hat, iiale, pure, perfec t In outline, w ith a lu x u ri­a n t m ass of so ft brow n h a ir full of shiny ripples, • dark oj’es, a little red m outh and sh in ing w hite teeth.

“Some dream y little chlf,” X said to m yself again and again, “w ith a p re t­ty face and a head fu ll of romane^. I

' w ish -1 had never seen her. A t a ll events, It Is highly probable th a t we h ave m ot fo r th e first and la s t tim e; so I ’ll forgot her.”

B rave w ords! I could n o t fo rget h e rf- and ju s t then,, to add to my perplexity , ray regim ent was ordered off to I n d ia .1

N6 doubt our broth ren of th e press l ia ro received word of the ruling »bout to be made by th e pnstoflico departm ent a t W ashington, w hich will deny tlte rig h t of a publisher to ex tend cred it to a n y subscriber for h is paper, under pen­a lty of w ithdraw al o f.m ailing privileges. W hile t h e . rule, if adopted, will not seriously affcct th e large publishing con­cerns and tho daily papers, tho weekly papers will find the ir operations hainp-

r ered, if not actually crippled, by it. Wo urge upon every editor and publisher in th is ^ o u n ty th e im m ediate necessity o f publicly protesting against this arb itrary ruling. W rite tho new Postm aster Gen*

\ e ra l about it. Ask th e a id of your rep- resentatives in Senate and House to have . i t set aside. I t means th e loss of dollars and cents if allowed to go un­heeded. Ju m p on it good and hard.

T he Slate* of Now Jersey sustains a jgreat loss in the death of Gen. W illiam J .

-j Sewell; whom wo delighted to honor. A lthough we could no t fuirlv claim Gen. Sewell as a native to tho m auor born,’ye t from tho fact th a t he was a resident o f o u r State since early childhood, and was for so m any years prom inently identified w ith h e r gcowth and progress, he was accounted as one of h e r stalw art sons.

: I t is*noteworth y to rem ark tho careerof th e dead soldier and statesm an. At th o outbreak of the war o f th e Rebellion ■ h e offered to en list in the Union arm y, and was commissioned a .cap tain in the F if th New Jersey Volunteers. H e served gallan tly throughout tho campaign, being wounded a t ChancelJoravillo. and Gettvs-

‘ burg , and w inning prom otion on m erit un til he a tta ined th e rank of brevet major-general of volunteers. .

After the war G eneral Sewell became connected w ith the railroad interests, and was made an ollicer of tho W est Jersey Railroad Company, u branch of th e Pennsylvania system. T h irty years

• ago he .en tered politics and was chosen ; S ta te Senator from Cam den county. He

was several-tim es re-eleolod to th e Oilice, an d was president of the New Jersey S ta te Senate in 1870, 1870 and 18S0,

In 1881 General Sewel.l was elected to ' th e - United States Senate to succeed Theo­dore f t R andolph, serving Until 18S7, In 189iA^ie was again elected, th is tim e to feuceewM ohn H. M cPherson, and he reinained f c oliice until h is d e a th ..‘ G e n e ra l Sewell was chairm an of his

S ta te ' d e le g a tio n to every national 'con-.• ven tion from 1870 to 1‘JOO. H e was* tho

founder m the Camden Safe Deposit and■ T rust Coujp.iny, ami an ollicer in a dozen

o r m ore otjher business and ph ilan th rop ic enterprise^, including th e N ational Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers, of which he was vice president. .

A t th e beginning of th e Spanish-Amer­ican w ar he w a« appointed a m ajor gen­eral of volunteers, b u t a t tiie request of his colleagues ’ in the.’ Senate he did not take th e fieljl. A t tho tim e of hid death he was also com m ander of the National G uard of -New Jersey with th e rank of m ajor general.•• Gen. Sewoll possessed a porsonal mag­netism , th a t dre\y m o n .to him . As a political leader he -haa hud few equals. The successes of th e Republican party in this S ta te have boon largely due to

, h is influence. Ho iiad tho happy faculty of healing political wounds and bringing together those whom party differences

■had divided. -B y sheer m erit w inning h is way to

th e top in business,.m ilitary and political circle?, his life is an ensam ple to young m en of th e present day. His. death is a

.^ reat logs t# the country, to th e State, an d . to th e c ity iti w hich he .lived, as •well as to tko great political party in

TRIBUTE TO SEWELL

Dr. Ballard Writes of the Man as He Knew Him.

Iii all th è eulogies p rin ted in th é pub­lic press regarding General Sewell, none of Which pass the l.m itsof positive truthsj b u t little has been- said upon phases of his character whjeh appeal most closely to tiie /A m erican heart.. M cKinley’s statesm anship made the nation proúd of h im , h is war record enshrined him* his ab ility to bring measures to pass made him its trusted leader, while h is home life endeared him : to the: national heart, an d 1 his.reverence ’ for reljgion appealed to th e national soul. ;

All these characteristics w ere..equally true o f Gen* Sowell; ¡His ability avouched itself in en tering th e .a rm y a subordinate . and rising, to a M ajor-tíéheral, en tering the sanje ranks o f th e railroad and be­coming a • railvohd. president, en tering political life hi th e New Jersey Senate and closing it ,in the Senate of the nation.

H is leadership illustrated itself in liold- ing in ’ lino th e antagonistic elem ents, as well as. antagoni9\io m en ; representing political economy, and compelling them to achieve political v ic to rv .;

l l i s statesinanship commended itself to th e people in. its ability to seize w hat­ever was practicable in efforts to reach th e public good and secure and p u t i t i l i w orking o rder as a basis for w hat .better m ight come afterward. ‘ %

All th is is rem em bered as it ought to be iii these eulogiuma. But th e higher nobleness of a na tu re perfected in char­acter, of a generosity which substituted deeds :of kindness for personal wrongs, in those deeds forget .the wrong w hich nature developed itself again in constant, help ing : o f : pêbplé ; less- fortiinate th a n himself, w hether they were poor broken intém pera tes o r an un fortunate-clergy­man, which; held itself; to his friends whoso fail Its, lie al ways k ne w, bt) t wi ¿li­ti closeness which, never forsook them despite th e faults/ has not been told in these publicities, Nor has reverence for tho institutions, of religion, or the sweet am enities òf homo been so placed before the people as gives h im his rightful place am ong tho best as well as greatest of th e State. H is desire to help others carried itself beyond the principle and became a passion. I have known him to be un ­happy a n / en tire Sunday afternoon be­cause h is-sense of w hat was best com­pelled h im to refuae money to an in ­toxicated m an who had been a soldier.

I 11 political life there was 110 m istaking his position. • W’hen onçe th a t position was announced there was no fu rther d is­cussion. Reporters never cla?flcd him as doubtful._ .Un th e canjeen [Bauo JiV iiever chrtngéd Tua position because i{--was doomed to defeat. I t was tho samo in h is long advocacy o f tho loyalty of Gen; F itzJohn Porter, until th e years v ind i­cated him . On the temperance question lie believed the people should have tho “ say” and .pressed it to a local optioii as against the saloons and th e men who wanted all o r nothing. He stated openly th a t th e -p u b lic saloon business- in its present shape was a public immorality, and th a t th e people ought to hayo the righ t to exclude i t where they pleased, and h e -le n t all h is force to its accom­plishm ent. W hen the m ovem ent through the default of the tem perance men result­ed disastrously to himself, he said to me, ■*t You m ust do w hat you th in k beat, bu t I will never be backed down by tho sa- lopns.”

Scarcely a church was b u ilt near him ; w ithout receiving substantial aid. He was an uhlaltering friend to-OceamGrove and Vitman Grove, rçRgiôus résorts. Ho studied them in th e ir inception and .Watched th e ir progress with increasing interest, interposing him self between all. ellbrts to lessen th e ir force o r destroy th e ir rights. W hen appealed to in the effort to force a public driveway through .Ucean Grove on th è ground th a t i t would lessen his popularity to refuse it,-he re ­plied th a t the question-of popularity did no t in te rest him . : I t was sim ply w hat was right, and lie did not th in k i t was righ t to destroy the.princip le upon which it-was founded.v I t is w ith in th e knowledge of th e w rit­

e r .that w hen Mr. Ingersoll wiis in TiWi- ton durinjr a session.of th e Legislature, delivering his lecture on “ Death Ends A ll,” th a t some political friends desired to introduce him . Genera!. Sewell de­clined to receive him e ith e r publicly or pri vat el y ahd wb eli pressed for a reason replied, ” l f Mr. liigcrsoll came here 011 a m ission'O f th e Republican party. I should receive him with all the honors due to . h is position. But, I undcratand th e constitution of New Jersey to be founded on the New Testament, and no m an chi) be countenanced by-me who comes here to a ttack these foundations.” l ie believed th a t the institutions of re ­ligion were essential to good governm ent and confirmed h is practice to h is belief, in a regular a ttendance upon them .. I n . h i s . position of railw ay official, .tho same grouping of facts and clear-sighted­ness o f th e ir disposal obtained as had constituted his success 111.business. He ben t the forces of h is mind to bear upon the ir future relation to the Legislature of th e State, and established a conviction in ’th e publi# m ind of fair dealing by the Pennsylvania com pany .which largely fa ­cilitates th o p la n s it may present. H is ideal of th e first railroad man in .th e country was A, J . Cassatt.* Tho w riter was speaking to h im one day of Mr, Cas­satt’s ab ility in extracting from him in two m inutes a m eaning w hich would

have required tw enty to p u t in to words, when he replied, “ Mr, Cassatt is one of th e far-seeing men wdiocan project costly enterprises' w ith the certainty of benefi­cial results. In tw o hours lie will possess himself of the. facts, iii half an hour more w ill group them , and in ano ther will show the results w hich will necessarily follow along th e changes .of years and circum stances.”

Among th e oflieera of the great system w ith which Gen. Sewell was afliliated, ho was. felt as a friend, both in his per­sonality and official relation. Ilia w arm th of heart flowed as freely along th e lines of official intercourse as th ro u g h . the am enities of social life. High officers of th a t company. spokoW ith tears in both eyes and voices, w hile witnessing his funeral.

Of the men. who served linder him , a trainm an said, “ We.could nlw aysdepend upon him. He would never pardon d is­obedience, b u t ho would ahvay8 be sure th a t i t was disobedience beforo tho pen­alty was inflicted, and even tlion it-w as made as little 'h a rm fu l to him as .was possible.” While dismissing an o fficial1 who had sim ply been careles* in m aking h is deposits, ho said to him , “ I f you lmd come to ino 1 would have-dismissed you, b u t would have len t you tho m oney to make it good mid saved you tiie dis­grace.” S traightforw ard’w ith tho h igh­est an d . lowest, ho won th e respect of everyone, and tender alike to all, he w o n th e ir heartt*. * ' :

Ho was beloved by th e soldiers. Tho grave stateliness of his dem eanor was never mistaken by them for hauteur. W hen spoken to about i t ho replied, “ I f you had received one bullet in ono battle and. ano ther one in ano ther you would be careful o f your poise also.” The grav­ity was so tinctured w ith a clear desire to help th a t i t was never deem ed offensive. The soldiers still revere his name. M ajor Patterson, who was in his.rechino nt', and to whom Mr.'Seivcll sent his kindly re ­membrances a lew W'eeks beforo h is death , said of him , “ The loldiers trusted him and were always ready to follow Iiia lead.” He only yielded his preference for m ilitary life in declining th e com­mand in th e Philippines to. the pressure which felt he was needed more ¡11 th e Senate. '

He enjoyed discussions ' 011 the great, questions o f m etaphysical science as a p ­p lied to religion,-ami* the g reat questions which Ifavo puzzled hum an intellect for ages. Often the .writer and himself sat un til m idnight a t his home in th e ir d is­cussion. H e had little renard for o p in ­ions on th e subject, but th e h ighest re- apect for th e facts o f experience; never discounting them bofcaueo they m ight not Have been personal to himself.

In the freedóm of regard which had. .¿ro jvn„ont' of over th ir ty years of close­ness on all perso n a l lines tho w riter said to h im a t Asheville, “ I have believed w ith you in m aking th e best U6e o f m y tim e, no m atter w hat were tho circum­stances, and when 1 w as sick last w inter I em ployed my tim e in getting closer to God,” to which ho replied assentingly in his own case. On Sabbaths he evinced h is respect for religion by alw ays being in his place with his family in th e house of God.

B ut i t was in th e home th a t his real nature developed itse lf most clearly. W henever there was an -ev en in g asido from public duties i t was passed a t home. ' Always kind, yet firm iii h is kindness, the.children gave him an unquestioning and loving obedience. All th e public re­serve was laid aside and lie w asW ith them in sym pathy w ith the sports of childhood.

But i t was iu the/presence of ;the wife th a t ho found b is greatest^)m rm . l ie e x ­pressed a reverence for womanhood grow ­ing ou t o f his appreciation of tho noble qualities wl’.ch m ade up her character He trusted her absolutely w ith the con­struction of a 'lió m e whose wisdom prov-; ed itself in the m anly and womanly qual­ities of his children. In a ll.the spots to w hich e ithe r pleasure 01 d u ty called him» lie was insistent upon her presence w ith him , Iivh ia declining daya no hour-was perfect w ithout her. Words and .eyes both bore a tenderer significance w hen’ looking a t o r speaking to her. In th e old thoughts o f Scripture, ” the b u s '’and sit­ting iu the gates of honor praised h e r.” The only circum stance ever iu public bringing tears to h is eves was when a testim onial recognized her nobleness.

DEATH FROM PIN SCRATCH;

Mrs." Elbert Hoagland the Victim of . a Distressing Mishap .

A pin scratcli caused the death of Mrs. Mai-gare.t Hoagland a t . Nevvark last S un­day afternooii. Deceased was the wife o f E lbert Hoagland, a fresco painter, and the s6n;of Officer and Mrs. Derrick Hoag-, land, o f .123 Main avenue, Ocean Grove.

On Christm as m orning thè unfortunate woman was working, afroiit h e r home, as. usual/ when she-was pricked on the th ird finger of*; the right hand by a safety pin; The scratch seemed- insignificant, and Mrs.; Horigland • did nòt bother to tie up th e wound. . W hile cleaning a chicken she noticed th a t the fowl did not present* a fresh appearance. ' I.Ièr scratched, linger came - i n contact w ith Che organs of .the fowl, and it. is believed th a t in th is Way blood poisoning was contracted. ; ;.v

Before d inner on Christm as the injured finger began to pain her very m uch, and Mrs. Hoagland ap] died a poultice, w lnch | while it gave some relief, d id not reduce th e swelling. Tlie' pa in was such th a t th e w om an was in awfu 1 agony. T he finger 'began to tu rn black, and all the w hile th e arm kept swelling.,

Mrs. Pfròner, who lives in - th e same house, was' consulted, and she advised th a t , Mrs. Hoagland go .to a physician. D r. B aker was consul ted,' and; he °a w th a t the.w om an’s Condition :was serious! All W ednesday n ight Mrs. Pfronér rem ained w ith tlic ahUcted. woman.? : As fast as one! poultice lost its healing powers ano ther was applied. The swelling w enl from th e wrist to above the elbow. '

Blood poisoning m eanwhile had set in. On Thursday m orning Mrs. Hoagland gave b irth ; to a daughter. • Dr. Ba kcr iiad called,in Dr. W hitm an , and the two held a consultiition. I t was decided th a t th e bnly hope o f saving the woman’s life was th rough an operation.,; • She;w as told on Thiirsday. riight th a t i t would be neces­sary to am putate Iier hand a t the wrist,^ as there, was danger that.the poison would spread through her en tire body.. ; The following m orning Mr*!. Hoagland w as.no’ better, and ’it was decided to remove her to the city h o s p ita l^ S h e dreaded being separated fròlli her husband and two children, and reluctantly consented to go to tlie institution. She lingered in agony un til shortly a fte rnoon on Sunday, when she passed away. • • T he babe. is alive and apparently in good hea lth .. • .v;:M r s . H oagland 's ■ funeral 'was held on

The effects of am m onia upon the complexion are d irectly opposite- from th a t of arsenic.

. In fact,-everything desirable for wardrobe or home com- ; / fort, can, owing to the once-a-year.inventory, be had at a
