The family has lived in Lincoln since 18S0. Since recovering from an attack of pneu monia ten years ago, Mrs. Tilton has been troubled with a heart that beat too fast or too alow. She loved the light and ssnshine and lived in it. Her own pain ana frequent premonitions of an early death, she concealed from her family and friends with characteristic unselfishness and unwillingness to be the cause of anxiety. As a runner, who attheeadota race pants for breath ad staggers for the lack of it, so Mrs, TUtoa spent and worn straggled in the last twelve days of her KfeiShe was worn oat and therefore welcomed death which meant rest She kaew the seriousness of her condition from the first and often said after a severe attack of pain, "It's no se; don't try any more; I only want net" She talked of death as calmly as oae woald speak of a summer day's journey. To all questions about the future she replied that it was all right; that she was at peace with her Master. She bade all her friends good-bye with a heavenly smile and left this world without a misgiving, and has entered into the rest she so much longed for. Of a devotional nature, which expressed itself in constant cour tesy to her friends, her family and those who served her, she fulfilled the law by example and by an unconscious ness of self. Of a fervently affectionate nature she loved her father who was her comrade too, and all her family with a tenderness which strangers did not realize, noting her vivid enjoyment of the beautiful things of life. She leaves an infant daughter, nineteen months old, her husband and a mother and father. Died, on Tuesday, April the twenty third, aged thirty one years, Mr. T.W. Bartlett of this city. Died, on Monday afternoon at the home of her son, Mr. W. L. Crandall. 1G30 K street, Mrs. Betsy A. Crandall, aged seventy two years. OMAHA LETTER. Omaha, Nebr., April 13, 1901. Dear Eleanor: You can hardly be regarded, even by S3 prejudiced a judge as I, as an ideal correspondent. But, still "I write and write foe the mere pleasure of writing to you, dear." The house is very quiet, even the Btreet. The sky and wind are quiet. The wind hushed itself to sleep of wak ing dreams an hour ago. Gray clouds skud noiselessly above a gray town, also seemingly asleep. It is that ead-tonod time, just before day sinks helplessly into the outstretched arms of night. Every one is away from the house, and I am alone. Nothing breaks the heavy silence but the sharp ticking of a little, metal clo;k on my desk. If I were a person with a past I am sure it would rise a mournful spectre and gibe at me. Of course, I have a past; but it is not sufficiently interesting or particu larly anything to be spelled with a capi tal letter, so it is not worth mentioning or attempting to get a story from. The spirit of Lent seems to linger The land has failed to burst with joy ful Te Deums into bud and blossom. The sad Old World seemB to cling to the penitential robes and weeps gusty tears for unremembered prayers. We are doing our beet to brighten things somewhat with new frocks and gorgeous head-gear. Easter gave us a little chance and Trinity bloomed like a trop ical garden heavy with the scent of lilies. Monday night a benefit concert was given at Boyd thttre by the friends and admirers of Mr. Jules Lumbard, and their name is legion. A very fash ionable dressy audience greeted many of the old time favorites. Mr. Lumbard, as would be expected, was most enthu siastically received and literally lost in flowers, many of which found their way the next day to hospitals and homes of fortune's less favored. Financially the effort was a great success to which Lin coln contributed most royally. It is a matter of the greatest wonder to me how Mr. Lum bard's great voice holds its own against the ravages of time. As he stood before us erect and hale his white locks patriarchial in their soft flow the enthusiasm which he called fortb seemed justified, even on other grounds than that of sentimental mem ory. He has always been generous with the gift of hi voice, even when he knew the exchequer was low and he could only hope for the gratitude of those he served. Our benefit was a tender after math of love. Your recent one the planting of hope's blossoms that they may take root, grow and flower.
