On the ground of religion, tt tsstated, they objected to Cooper's visits to elf daughter. But all to no pur- Pose. ‘The lovers met_on the street at times, and, Mnaliy, Miss Allard agreed to become Cooper's wife, ist Week Mr. Allard found a letter in hig ughter’s Tootn, and seeing that It was from Cooper he wrote the young man a severe letter ace cusing him of trying to steal awuy Miss Allurd from her family.

With tls object in view she called upon a young Indy resid tng on Mosher treet, and. to whom Cooper had, tt Js sald, Deen one tnd engaged, and asked her to'do ail she could to_prevent the marriage. . The young Jady tn question called on Cooper with the pi ordetaining him over the Ume appointed for the nuptials, anda letter purporting to come from the young man was sent to Miss Allard informing her Matas her mother objected to the maten tt had better be broken off, It was after the hour set for the marriage wien "Mr. Cooper, owing to the per- sisting chatting of his. visitor, started for his bride, ‘The latter, ineantime, becoming discouraged, started @ff in search of hiin. Cooper was informe by the Allards that the girl had gone. While young Cooper was-deliberating- at the Allards what to do he recelved a letter frou Miss Allard stating that she was waiting forhimon Myrtle avenue.

A BUSY LIFE SPENT IN BEHALF OF FREEDOM AND RE- FORM—REVIEW OF HIS WORK AND PUBLIC SER- vices. Wendell Phillips, the silver-tongued orator, and the last great leader of the antl-slavery movement, died at his home in Boston on Saturday evening at 6:15 o'clock, atver a most painful illness of a week's duration. His death resulted from heart disease. He suffered terribly, the pain being intermittent and very severe. “Two or three days before his. death he told his physiclans that he should never Tecover, but everything was done to encourage him. ‘Not until almost the last did the physicians give up all hope of his rallying. Conscious to the Very last, he recognized his Wwite and other members of his fiumtly at “the bedside, and spoke to them. His address a month ago at the unvelling of the Harriet Martineau statue proved a severe tax upon his physical and mental powers, and he told Lis frlends that his platform days were over. SKETCH OF HIS LIFE. Wendell Phillips was born in Boston on Nov. 29, 1811, and lived there all his life. His father, John Phillips, was the first mayor of Boston, and of course sent him to Harvard, whence he was gradu- ated In 1931, He was admitted to practice law in 18}, Dut as neither his tastes nor necessities re- quired him to remain in the profession, {t, and for many years devoted his malh energies to the anti-slavery. ‘cause, with which he was promal- Identified from’ the time of the murder of fehl aroused his frst eloquent specch in Faneuil Hail In 1837, to the close of the lute war and the enfranehisement of black men. He was an vpilinching, outspoken abolitionist, and never hest- tated Co a‘lvocate disunton as the most expeditious: leans of freeing the slave. In the height of the anti-slavery movement, when its advocates were often treuted with Ob: loquy and brutality, ‘his eloquent voice com- jmanded attention and respect from many who went only to scoff and jeer. His orator; waspect- Mar to himself. He had the art of biending bis. tory, statistics, anecdotes, denuncation and-argu ment in the ‘most captivating way, so that from, ‘the time he began to speak to the close the Interest hever flagged. He Spiced his addresses with Potnted ind bitter personalities, aud never tired of excorlating the slacholders and thelr friends, and muny was the telling blow which he dealt to the allies of the south atnong northern churches and Social and business institutions. He struck at the foe of the glave wherever he found bim, and was in the van‘ulways to help the slave. ‘Tireless in hiy work, he went wherever free Speech was permitted, advocating his cause on lecture platforms, at conventions, meetings of abo- Utionists, and everywhere that’a word could be Sald in favor of humanity. HIS polished speeches were prepared with great care, memorized, and de- livered ina free, easy-going ‘and conversational style that was at Once original and - He had none of the obtrusive mannerisms of the pro. fessional elocutionists. As he stood before an auc ence in scrupulously neat and tasteful dress, with easy grace and bright intellectual face, he was & good picture of A GENTLEMAN OF THE OLD SCHOOL. He lived forty yearsin the old homestead In Essex street, Boston, and was finally compelled toleave it by the opening of a new street in 1862, Some of Mr, Phillips’ bitterest speeches were made during the war. From the first he saw that the war was the opportunity for the slave, and he kept urging the north to more active measures. He was impatient with Mr. Lincoln, and in one of his speeches In Cooper Institute declared that Mr. Lin coln was an “old turtle.” He made thriling speeches in favor of arming, educating and entraie chising tue blacks; and was always predicting that they would selze the opportunity to free themselves atthe sacrifice of their masters He was a warn, Advceate of the emancipation proclamations of doth Fremont and Lincoln, and the fruition of his hopes was found in the adoption of the frteenth atendment. Mr. Phillips found time all his life for urging other reforms also. He was always an advo. cate for temperance and for the enfranchisement of women, and he Was @ prominent speaker on those topics. At the close of the war Mr. Phillips came promt- nently to'the front as an advoc.te of the principles of the greenback-labor party. He got 20,000 votes, as a laborer and temperance candidate’ for ‘gov emicr of Mussachusetts in 1870, and soon became celebrated for as marked utterances on the labor question a8 ad characterized his anti-slavery speeches, stem in this country was When the lecture 5; most in favor, and other forms of amusement for Small cities and towns were not 80 common as how, Mr. Phillips was in great demand as a lecturer. Among his most celebrated lectures were those on “The Lost Arts,” eulogies of Theodore Parker and Jobn Brown aud “Toussaint L’Ouverture.” “The Lost Arts” was a charming ilterary produciton, full of curious data, golng lo show that the ancients Were in many respects al of the moderns in ‘works of art. On the Chinese question‘ Mr. Philips aifrered aboiltion orators, and favored from Some of the old the restriction of Chinese immigration as @ means of essential protection of American workmen. He sald: “They who seek to flood us artificially with barbarous labor are dragging down the American home to the level of the houseless street_herds of China, “If the workingmen have not combined to” Prevent this itis time that they should. "When, Tich men conspire poor men should combine.” Mr. Phillips was of medium height Dullt, eect and of gracetul carriage. ne, His eyes were He usually Wore short side whiskers” At Wheeling, W.Va, age case of Mrs, ett, arrested for playing: bourine in the ‘street during. a procession ‘of the Salvation Army, that the members of the Salvation Army have a right to parade in public with music. —_————— ith uae.
