FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS The sudden death of Judge Thomas F. Miller of the Police Court yesterday after- toon, as announced in the extra edition of ‘The Star last night, caused deep regret to his hest of admiring friends. Judge Mil- ler had lived here most of his life, and had endeared himself to those who knew him to the extent that his loss comes to scores of people as would the loss of a near rela- tive. While he had been sick and unable to attend to his judicial duties for several months, his death at this time was unex- Fected except by a few intimate friends, who had been advised of his real condition. With all his suffering he remained on his feet until the last minute, and an hour be- fore the end came he was out walking with ene of his children. About ten years ago Judge Miller mar- ried Miss Wade, daughter of Colonel Wade, who was at one time United States mar- shal, with headquarters at Atlanta. Three children were born to them, and the judge eased husband. pt settlement of ghly the order and up for $2 proval of the piegh ». Our cutter is an So We can assure you a perfect fit.

NES! inspect was perfectly devoted to the little ones. His domestic life could not have been hap- rier. Most of his afternoons were spent about the neighborhood of his Takoma home, with the children, and he did every- thing in his power to make his home an ideal one. For many years the judge had suffered from a nervous affection,and about a@ year ago his condition became serious. He was obliged to remain away from court, at short intervals, and when it was appar- ent that his malady was of a more serious character than this long standing afilic- tion, specialists were consulted. One of them gave him hope of recovery, but Dr. Charles G. Stone. his family physician, ex- pressed the belief that the disease was in- curable. t I have thix day sevor- with the firm of . and have 1 ve th as agent ed my connection White, Hentz & C Obliged to Retire. Finally, the time came when the judge was no longer able to occupy the bench, and Judge Kimball held both branches of the court where the light dockets justified kim in so doing. The two judges had be- come very much attached to each other, and Judge Miller’s illness was a severe trial to his colleague, who was of the opinion that they were soon to be separated. Monday there came a serious turn in the condition of the patient, and Dr. Stone re- mained with him a large part of the day. For a long time the doctor had urged the patient to go to the hospital, but it was not until Monday that he consented. Then arrangements were made to have him taken to Garfield Hospital, but yesterday morn- ing he was too weak to undertake the transfer. Although he was so near death’s dcor, he went out in the open air several times yesterday. He got his mail at the post office, and in the afternoon, after his last walk with his little one, he went in the house to rest himself, and death came soon afterward. All the members of his family were with him when he passed away. He had a hem- orrhage and messengers were dispatched for his physician, but when the latter reached the house there was nothing for him to do. His patient was dead. A num- ber of neighbors responded to a summons, and were with Mrs. Miller during her se- vere trials. News of the judge’s death reached the Police Court late in the afternoon, and James Hughes, the colored janitor, who had been the judge's faithful attendant, hastened to the house. He had been with the patient all of his spare time, and had only left him a few hours before. Judge Kimball, the clerks of the court and a few of the most intimate lawyer friends of the deceased, as well as many residents of Takoma, were among those who visited the house last night to ex- —— their sorrow at the loss of their asso- ciate. Tempered Justice With Mercy. Judge Miller was well versed in the law, end he treated those who came before him with such uniform courtesy that none had reason to complain of unfairness on his part. While he administered justice with an even hand, he never failed to temper it with mercy. It is because of his undisputed impartiality that he will be missed by mem- bers of the bar, as well as by those who appear as defendants in court. ‘The funeral will be held at Rock Creek Church tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, end it is expected that the Masons will attend in a body.

Johnson, pastor of the Takoma church, will conduct the funeral services. Judge Miller was born in Charlestown, Jefferson county, W. Va., but came to this city during his early life and has been identified with its interests ever since. He figured mm many public enterprises, and prior to his elevation to the bench was one of the most successful members of the bar. He was probably employed in more mur- der trials during his practice than any other member of the local bar, and it is re- lated that not one of his clients ended his days on the scaffold. a the interests of this bank re- is board recommends to the iders, that its L stock be forthwith the city of DAY, THE bank to tw vote of not less than two-thirds he present stock is required to effect thi nnot be present may vote by pre an amendment to the ate existence of the bank for y Years will be sub- © thelr signatures. his in person or by ney; the assent of not less than he stock ix also necessary for this is hoped that every stockholder will atterd 5 meeting. y order of the board of directors: C.F.

After assuming his new duties he quickly assured his friends that they had made no mistake in urging his nomination, for his insight into character, together with his knowledge of the law and a kind heart, made him the right man for the position. So able a judge did he make that he was reappointed at the expiration of his first term, and had nearly three more years of ( service. During his term as judge he had many difficult problems before him, but his method of dealing with criminals resulted in his doing the proper thing for the good of the community. Among the cases he was called upon to consider was that of the members of Coxey’s army, who were arrested at the Capitol in 1804, and it is sald to be due to the manner in which he handed them that the District got rid of the commonwealers as soon as it did. Causes a Vacaney. The death of Judge Miller causes a vacan- cy which will in all probability be filled by the President without delay, as the busi- Less of the court 1s in such shape as to re- quire the services of two judges. As stated in The Star several days ago, Judge Kim- ball’s term is soon to expire, and a number of names, including his own, have been mentioned as being under consideration for appointment. Most of the aspirants have put in applicatiorg with scores of indorser John H. O'Donnell, Samuel C. Mills, Chas. F. Scott and E. M. Hewlett, all justices of the peace, have been mentioned as probable successors to Judge Kimball. The names of several attorneys have also been used in connection with the appointment, but most of these deny that they are appli- cants, and say they would not accept the Fosition. For the present vacancy Mr. James L. Pugh, jr., has been mentioned. It is the opinion of many attorneys about the courts that the President will appoint a democrat, possibly a non-partisan, to fill this vacancy, as Judge Miller was a democrat and Judge Kimball is a pronounced republican. M Pugh has been prosecutor in the Police Court for several years, and his friends claim he will make an efficient judge. There can be no charge of offensive parti- sanship made against him, his friends say, for he has never voted in his life, nor has he ever made a political speech. His ap- pointment is favored by many of the Dis- trict officials, and the chances seem to be in his favor. Judge Miller was prominent in Masonic circles. He was a member of Mount Ver- non Chapter, Royal Arch Masons, Pen- talpha Lodge, F. A. A. M., and Columbia Commundery, K. T. He was also a mem- ber of the Odd Fellows’ order Feeling at Police Court. Befcre 9 o'clock this morning the ma- Jority of the lawyers who practice before the Police Court had assembled in and about the building, and in groups were dis- cussing the death of Judge Miller. Every countenance was grave and sad, and gen- eral sorrow was unquestionably felt by ell. Assistant District Attorneys Pugh and Mullowny, Clerk Potts, Deputy Clerks Joseph and Lum Harper, Warrant Clerk Ruff, Docket Clerk Peyton and the other employes of the court seemed to be par- ticularly affected by the sudden though expected demise of the popular jurist, who was the respected friend of cach one of them. Everybody, including the large rumber of policemen who were in court to look after czises, seemed to feel keenly the loss. It was the consensus of opinion that no fairer, abler nor more popular jurist ever occupied the bench in the Police Court. Had it not been for the fact that in the neighborhood of one hundred prisoners were in the dock, awaiting trial, it is prob- able that no session of the court would have been held today, It was absolutely necessary to proceed with the business, however, but no disposition was displayed by any one to begin. Judge Kimball, on reaching the building, proceeded at once to the clerk’s cffice, where to the clerks, a few attorneys and a Star,revorter he re- cited particulars of the death of Judge Miller. When the business of the day was concluded, the announcement of the sad event was formally made, appropriate ad- dressee delivered by several attorneys, resolutions were framed and adopted, and the court adjourned in respect to the mem- ory of the deceased.

Th point being ore of some impcrtance, the law on the subject was consulted. Section 1047 of the Revised Statutés, relating to the Listrict of Columbia,: provides: ‘In case of sickness, absence or disability of the judge, either of the justices of the Supreme Court of the District shall desi nate some justice of the peace to discharge the duties of the police judge until such disability be removed.” Judge Kimball at once summoned Judge Mills, Assistant District Attorney Pugh and Clerk Potts, and a conference was held in the room of Judge Kimball.
