Three Grand Tours to Honolulu.
Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, about which so much has been written, has been aptly termed the "Paradisa of the Pacific." and the title is well deserved, for aside from Jits, magnificent sceneryits wonderful volcano, Kilaua, and its interesting inhabita ts, its climate is unrivaled, and offers a mo3t delightful change to the residence of the eastern and middle states who desire to escape the rigors of a northern winter.
The attractions and advantages of these beautiful islands are brought within easy reach by the series of excursions which have been inaugurated by the North Western Line, which leaves Chicago at 6 p. m., January 15, February 10 and March 5, reaching San Francicco on the evening of the thira day atl er departure from Chicago. Steamers of the Oceanic S. S. Company leave San Francisco January 21, February 15 and March 10, and. it will be observed, therefore, that those who join these excursions will be afforded ample time to view the many attractions of the principal city of the Pacific coast and its beautiful surroundings.
Excursion tickets, good for nine months will be sold at rate of $225 for the round trip from Chicago to Honolulu and return and this price includes state room and meals on steamers in both directions.
The entire trip from Chicaga to Honolulu is made in only nine days, and these excursions, which are strictly first class in all respects, offer an exceptionally favorable opportunity for visiting these beautiful islands at very reasonable expense.
Detailed information will be furnished lipon application to W. B. Kniskern, General Passenger and Ticket Agent Chicago sy North Western R'y, Chicago.

THE FUNERAL OF MRS. QUITMAN JACKSON.
A Large Attendance, a Fine Sermon—Handsome Floral Tributes and Impressive and Beautiful Ceremonies by the Order of the
Eastern Star. The funeral of Mrs. Quitman Jackson Sunday was one of the largest in the city for some time. The Presbyterian church was crowded to its utmost capacity and hundreds went away unable to get in. The services were in charge of the Order of the Eastern Star, of which order Mrs. Jackson was an houored member. After the close of a beautiful sermon by Rev. E. W. Souders, Worthy Patron, Will W. Cuok of the order, took charge of the ceremonies and conducted them in a very impressive and sympathetic manner. All of the oilicers of the order took pait and performed their parts perfectly. The officers being Miss Borgia Barnard, Worthy Matron William Cook, W01thy Patron Geo. W, Luncan, Chaplain, Miss VioH Ham and Mesdames W. O. Bragg, Will Carr, A. N. Rtiue aud J. H. Justice representing the points of the Star.
The ceremony was a beautiful one and so impressed all who saw aud heard it. The floral tributes were indeed'handsome and including those used by the order, were six een in number.
The sympathy of the audience went out to Mr. Jackson, his motherless little ones aud to Mrs. Rjyer, the aged mother as they wept over the casket of the dear departed. The powerful grief of the strong man. the moaning sobs of the old mother aud the cries of the children brought tears to many eyes. It was indeed a sad funeral.
The pall bearers were: Eph Marsh, Will A. Hough, Geo. S Wilson, A. C. Piikanton, Will H. Glascock and W. C. adding.
Obituary.
Adah M., daughter of Dr. Benjamin W. and Lydia W. Royer, was born in Noblesville, Indiana, July 26th, 1861. On February 25th, 1880 she was mariied to Quitman Jackson, and died at her home in Greenfield ac 2 o'clock p. m., January 31st, 1890, at the age of thirtyfour years, six months and five days.
To them were born five children, all of whom are living, viz, Bessie aged 15, Carl 12, Jennie 9, Grover 7, and Alma 3 years, respectively.
In 1872, at the age of eleven years she united with the M. E, church at Fort ville, Indiana. After removing from Fortville, she received from the church at that place her letter, and in 1891, she and her husband united with the Presbyterian church, in Greenfield, and she continued ia that church relation to the time of her death.
She was also an esteemed member ©f the order of the Eastern Star, and enjoyed the initimate acquaintances of a large circle of friends through this and adjoining counties.
As a neighbor she was kind and thoughtful and ever willing to do her part in relieving suffering or in bestowing any needed assistance. Her sympathetic heart and generous disposition won for her the love and esteem of neighbors and friends.
But it was in her home that the many lovely traits of character which she possessed were most fully exemplified. To her husband she was ever true, kind and loyal aud often spoke to her friends in highest praise of his kindness and devotion to her. She was indeed his helpmate. Her diligence and cherfulness, coupled with the genial nature of the husband made their home the scene of many enjoyable gatherings of their friends and neighbors. Her presence on numerous journyes made for the husband real pleasure excursions out ,of what would otherwise have been purely business trips in the performance of official duty.
For her childrea she bore, in the most complete 'sense, a mother's love. Her life and energy were gladly spent in the promotion of their welfare and happiness. Every comfort and enjoyment which could be brought to them by her willing hands were bestowed with pleasure. She felt the responsibility of their training, and in kindness, with a loving christian spirit vigilantly watched over them and guided their youthful steps.
In her busy, happy life she had not failed to make preparation for the hereafter. Dnring her last sickness she was patient and resigned, and remarked to her friends thao all was well with her, She expressed a desire to live that she might help her devoted husband and beloved children, but said if it was the Lord's will she was ready to go. She was consious and composed to the last and approached death's door as one would that of a friend fully realizing that the end was near. Her mind seemed to soar above the things of earth and the expression of her countenance as well as words told that she was happy. Thus, while the body grew weaker, and with unlooked for rapidity gave up the struggle, her spirit in advance of dissolution seemed to have joined its kindred of the redeemed and brought into the sorrowing home the holy presence of the angels who had come to accompany her redeemed spirit into the realms of eternal glory.
In such a lite there is much worthy of emulation, and in such a death there is much to relieve the crushing sorrow that bears so heavily on the bereaved husband and children. While the light of the home has been darkened and the cup of joy exchanged for that of sorrow, yet the noble life and pure spirit still exist and beckon onward an'd upward to that

Services at the M. P. Church.
Special revival services will be conducted in this chnrch during the week. Pentecostal services at 2 o'clock each afternoon. The regular monthly business meeting will be held tonight at 6:30 and the business meeting of the Christian Endeavor Society of the parsonage Tuesday night at 6:30. Preaching will begin each night at 7 o'clock sharp. Last night we had as nice an audience of young men and ladies as one could well wish for. While the room was not full, the attendance was surprisingly large considering the severe storm and rain. There not being a full attendance of those for whom the subject of the revivals was especially prepared, it was postponed until tonight, and the pastor delivered an address upon the salt of speech, which, judging from the good order and close attention was well received. May wr be able to make the lives of these young people useful and happy.
