his eyes aro sunken and dull, and his
complexion siokly. His relatives stud

Ex President Arthur was buried on
Monday, tho services being held at the
Euisooual Church of tho Ileavculy

guard of hotior composed of artillery
men of tho regular army and marines
was permitted, and the obsequies were
conducted m tho simplest manner pos

WASHINGTON LETTER
From our Regular Correspondent.!
Washington. D. 0.. Nov. 23, 1880.
Yesterday was tho day of ex-President
Arthur's funeral, and all of tho
Executive Departments wero closed
aud the clerks had holiday. Tho
United States Supietne Court adjourn
ed from Friday until Tuesday for thu
same reason. All ol tho public build
inn in Washington aro draped in black
for the dead ex-President and flags are
displayed at half mast, president
Cleveland aud several members of his
cabinet attended the funeral and Con
gress was represented by a committee
of Senators aud Representatives.
Since the black draperies have been
hunt: on tho front portico of the Whito
House, the President and Mrs. Cleve
land take their carriage at the south
entrance when they go out for a drive,
and nil tho projected gayeties at the
Executive Mansion will be postponed
lor tho thirty days ot mourning, ihen
tho black bunting will be taken down
and folded up and laid away to do ser
vice again at tho death of tho next
bieh ollicial or ex-ollicial of the Gov
ernment, and tho gay social Beason will
begin.
Iho custom ot shutting down on
public work, aud turning fifteen thou
sand employes loose whenever a 1 resi
dent, ex-President, a Cabinet officer or
ox-Cabinet officer happens to die. is a
questionable way of showing respect to
the distinguished dead. It. is a pic
nic lor tho clerks and a time for con
gratulalious and they would be glad to
mill ti nl v liv a hundred fnlil t.hn occas
ion of public sorrow that give them a
day oil and out. lhore is no doubt
that the custom would bo more honored
in thi breach than in tho observance,
but it is one of those things that a long
liuc ot precedent has established and
it would bo difficult to decide whero or
with whose demise it should end.
President Cleveland has been mnch
displeased at efforts to get him to in
terfero in the now widely discussed
Washington Po'.ico scandal. He does
not leel, in the present condition o
nilairs, tnat ho would bo warranted
taking hold of the matter, although
the time may come when he may bo
called upou'to take some action. Tho
President is still deeply absorbed with
the preparation ot his message, and at
inougii no is subjected to some nn
avoidable interruptions, the approach
es to him aro closely guarded.
Tho President's appointment of Mr.
Fulton as Paymaster General of the
iSavy was very gratityinc to naval
officers and his appointment of Co
Mooro as Surgeon General of the Army
was received with satistaction anion
officers of tho Army.
The tegular Army officers who have
been examining thu lumtia ot th
States and Territories have reported
commending tho efficiency ol tho re
spective organizations. They think.
however, that the armed militia of tho
country would bu 'doubled if Congress
would appropriate annually a muob
larger sum to bo distributed among tho
states lor unproved arms and accoutre-
munu, in the litter case it is estimat
ed that the militia would consist
:100,000 well drilled men, who could
bu called into active servico at a mo
jiu-ut.'rt notice, and who would bo nl
most as effective at tho outset of
war, ns tho regular Army.
Many conventions and associations
moro than ever beforo want
como to Washington during tho next
year. The National (Jrango has do
tided to hold all future nicotine's
that order in Washington, and a corn
miltto hns been appointed to tako
measures for tho erection of a suitabl
building hero for its officers and il
sessions.
Soon after Congress meets thcrp will
be a liirgo uatheringof notabilities her
to disctir'H tho proposed Exposition at
Washington in 1881) nnd 02. And laid
tlicro is to bo a convention of nn edu
cational character which will attinct a
good many people. It will be In tho
interest of Federal aid to common
fcliools and will bo composed of school
Hnpurint nih ills from the various States
nnd Territories.
H has been proposed that oach Stato
i f tho Union shr.ll erect in this city a
I nndi-oiiiH building to lo used as a
Kmte JieaciquaiJ-er?, and perhaps as a
nsideneo lor tho Senators oflhoro
tpeciivi' Stales. The plan wliitji is
likely t brf carried out some lime,
vi nld pri'Vtf a great omvonietps to
catli State, and would add much to tbe
jiumluur of thu National Capital,
Thanksgiving Day.
Tho occasional observanco of a day
f thanksgiving, formerly recommend
ed by tho civil authorities was not un
usual in Europe, and such a day was
observed in Loyden, Holland, Oct. 0,
1575, tliu fust aiinlveisary of tho do
llvoranco of that city from siege. In
1C08 tho Pilgrim church, exiled from
England, went to Holland, nnd remain
ed there till 1020, when it sent off the
Mayflower colony to Now England.
After tho first hnrvest oi tho colonists
nt Plymouth in 1G21, Gov. Bradford
fcnt four men out fowling, that they
"might after a morn special manner re
jolco together." In July, 1023, a day
ot lasting nun prayer was appointed
on account of drought. Hnin enmo
abundantly while they wore praying,
nnd the governor appointed a day ol
thanksgiving, which was observed with
religious services. Tho Charlcetown
records show a similar change ot last
day into thanksgiving in 1 631 on ac
count of tho arrival of supplies from
Ireland. In June, 1032, Gov. Win
throp, of tho Massachusetts Hay colony
recommended a day ot thanksgiving
aco-mnt . f action of the British
privy council favorablo to tho colonies,
and iuvited tho governor of Plymouth
colony to unito witn him. Tlicro is
record of the olliuial appointments of
lays of thanksgiving in Massachusetts
Bay in 1033, 103-1, 1037, 1038, and
1G39, sometimes of moro than one day
in tho srnio year, nnd in Plymouth in
1631, 1008, 1080 (when tho form of
thu recommendation indicates that it
had become an annual custom), 1089,
and 1090. Tho earlier of these np.
pointmentH were at different seasons of
tho year, and for special reasons, par
ticularly lor tho arrival ot ships with
provisions aud now colonists ; but the
later wero moro generally for the har
vest, and were in tho lato autumn cr
early winter. Occasional thanksgiving
days wero appointed by tho Dutch
governors of Now Nothcilnud in 1G14
10-15, 1055, and 1004, and by the Eng.
lish governors of Now York in 1755
and 1700. During the revolution
hanksgivinz dav was a national insti
tution, beiug annually recommended
by congress ; but alter the geueral
thanksgiving for peace in 1784 there
was no national appointment tin lvau,
when President Washington, by re
quest of congress, recommcndoJ a day
of thanksgiving for tho adoption of tho
constitution. Washington issued a
second thanksgiving proclamation in
1795 on aecouut ot the suppression ot
insurrection. 1 resulont Madison, by
request of congress, recommended
thanksgiving tor peace in April, lsio.
But the ollicial recommendation of
thanksgiving day was mainly confined
to JNow England, wncre regular annual
proclamations wero issued by the gov
ernors of the states, and the day was
observed almost universally with relig
ious services, and was the principal
ocial and honio festival of tho year.
Tho prayer book of tho Protestant
Episcopal church, ratified in 1789, rec
ommends for a day of thanksgiving thu
b'rsc Thursday in November, unless an
other day bo appointed by the civil
authorities. There was occasional rec
ommendation by other leligions bodies,
and various local customs prevailed in
different narts of tho country ; but tho
day was not regularly recommended
by the governor of New York till 1817
and its adoption in tho southern statos
was much later, in looo uov. jonn
son of Virginia recommended a day
of thanksgiving; but in 1857 Gov.
Wise, being icquested to do so, publio-
ly declined, because unauthorized to in
terfere in religious matters. In 1858
thanksgiving proclamations were is
sued by the governors of eight of tho
southern states. During the civil war
President Lincoln issued proclamations
recommending special thanksgiving tor
viotory in 1802 and 1803, and a nation
al proclamation of tho annual thanks
giving day in 1803 and 18G4. Since
that time such a proclamation has been
issued annually by tbo president, as
well as by the governors of tho states
and tho mayors of tho principal cities ;
and custutn has fixed the time for tho
last Thursday in November. The

The following changes lmvo been made
In the rules of the National Base Ball
League nnd American Association.
Tlio high nnd low ball system of delivery
is abolished, any ball now being considered
fair that passes tho prayer between his
shoulder uud kuee and that passes over
tho plnte.
Bunting will in future not be nllowed.
Any obvious attempt to make a foul hit
will ho scored its n strike.
Clubs will not toss for choice of position
In future, tho right of choice Invariably
resting with the homo club.
Fivo balls and four strikes will be allow
ed instead of six balls and three strikes, us
heretofore.
When a bntsman tul'.rs his base on balls
ho shall bo credited with a base hit,
A batsman sliull take his base when
struck by a pitched ball.
Any motion whatever on tho part of tho
pitcher, made to deceive tbe batter, shall
he considered a balk.
It in running to a bnsc the runner touch
es and detaches the hasc-bag without being
touched by tho baseman he will be safe.
Captains of clubs can only question any
decision of the umnlre. The old rulo re
quiring a runner to return to his base on
the run when a foul lilt Is made was re
scinded. Hereafter the runner can walk
to his base. No runner can have a substi
tute run for him In case of injury, but if
hurt must retire from tho gumu.
A batter Is out on tho fourth strike under
the new rules, whether tbe ball Is dropped
or passed by the catcher.
The question of having two umpires and
a referee was brought up, but a majority of
tbe committee voted against the scheme
und it was drooped.
Tho pitcher's box was shortened to five
and a naif leet anil the pltclier will be re
quired to keep his forward foot firmly on
the ground when about to deliver the ball.
Ills rear foot must be on the back line oi
the box and he will be allowed to take but
one step when delivering tho ball. The
ball must he held In plain view of the urn
plre. Tlio pitcher cannot, as heretofore.
deliver the ball to tho batter after making
n feint to throw to first base, but must re
sume his position lu his box.
(July two couchers will bo permitted and
they shall huve the right to talk to base
runners only. For talking to a batsman
the coacher will bo reprimanded tor the
first ollensn and be forced to clve up bis
coaching and another man put in his place
on a repetition ot the fault.

bases on balls, hit by pitcher, passed balls,
wild pitches, time of game, nnd tlio nnmc

credit for a striko out. In the places of
total bases the record of stolen bases will

lo steal a base must lie credited, whether

A Great Victory
A Torrlblo Caso of Scrofula
Cured by
Hood's Sarsaparilla
"In tho winter ot 1870 I was attacked with
Scrofula In ono of the most aggravating forms.
At one tlmo I had no less tli.ui thirteen largo
kbsccsses over and around my neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost Intolerable to enduro. It Is Imposslblo
tq fully describe my tufferlng;, as tho pasu
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
threo years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, I was worso than ever.
Finally, on tho recommendation of W, J,
Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, I was Induced
to try Hood's Barsaparllla. And now, after
having taken twelvo bottles, within tho last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and tbo abscesses liavo all
disappeared, except tho unsightly scars, which
aro dally beconilnc' smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less.' I do not know what It may
have ilonu for others, but I do know that In
my caso, Hood's SarsiiparWa has proved an
iticctho fpeclllo Indeed. As an etldeneo of
my gratitude I send these facts unsolicited,
and I am ready to verify Ihu authenticity ot
this cure, bv iicrpoual corn-snoiuleiico with
any one who doubts It." CliAiiLts A. ltoii

Being desirous of placing our work more fully before the pub
lic, and after much thought and deliberation, we have, resolved to
make a certain number of our Elegant Life-size Crayon Portraits,
including an elegant gold frame, for the exceedingly low price of
$15,00. We intend to have at leaqt one of our Life-size Crayon
Portraits m every city and village
duce them wo will make one of
the person who will bring or send
us a good photograph or other small picture, from which they de
sire a Portrait to be made. Ncarlv evcrv family possesses tho
small picture of some friend, deceased or living, whose memory
they cherish, and a good portrait of whom they would value as a
priceless gem. The uncertainty of life admonishes all that do
not possess a Portrait of their darling boy or girl, or of Father or
Mother, Wife or Husband, who may be Hearing tho end of life's
journey, that this matter should
The Oportunity is now Offered You
to get absolutely without charge, except moderate cost of frame
an elegant Crayon Portrait that will never change or fade. The
chance of obtaining one of the number is now oll'ered to you. Ke
member we. guarantee satisfaction in all cases, or in other words ;
the Crayon Portrait will be a perfect likeness, enlarged from the
small picture furnished to us ; therefore, try and secure as good
and clear a picture as possible, for much depends upon its cor
rectness. If at present you have no suitable picture to copy from
if you will call upon us wo can aid you very much in getting one
that will certainly make a good Crayon Portrait, as the lights and
shades of tho small picture, if sharp and clear, will so appear ia
the Crayon Portrait.
After a certain number have been placed beforo the public iit
the above gratuitous manner we will then charge $30,00 lor every
Crayon Portrait made by us, framed. You are invited to call and
examine our Portraits before giving an order to us, and in case
you reside so far away that you can not conveniently call, perhaps
you have some friend that would examine our Portraits aud
Frames and report to you.
Our sole object in making these Crayons on the above terms be
ing to introduce them into families where they can be seen by
friends that may want a Portrait made after the time that our gra
tuitous offer has expired. We earnestly value and covet your pat
ronage, and wo mean no intrusion in submitting our special offer
for your consideration, believing that your good judgment will
prompt- you to inspect our work and give us at least ONE order.
Be careful and prcservo this advertisement as it possesses a val-.
