J. F. Kennedy applied to Judge Heb- bard vesterday for an injunction restrain- ing the Fire Commissioners from award- ing the contract for the shoeing of the department’s horses to John O'Rourke. Kennedy was represented by Herbert Choynski, who stated that Kennedy's bid of $193 for each horse was the lowest. O'Rourke’s bid was §2 for each horse, and the minutes of the meeting at which the bids were submitted bear out his state- ment. : Secretary McCarthy of the Com missioners in answer to Choynski questions disclaimed any knowledge of the facts other than _ those read from the minutes. R. J. Harris, who has charge of the horses, was asked a lot of technical questions bearing on the specifications under which the two rivals submitted bids. Owing to the ab- sence of one of the Commissioners’ at- torneys the matter went over until to- day. g T Ordered to the Front.

A RERRS ARSI . { | Mrs. Almira S. Townsend, philanthro- | | pist and friend of the volunteer soldier, ’y“'fls laid away in the receiving vault of | Laurel Hill cemetery yesterday afternoon. | The last rites over the body were solemn oL | In the extreme and were witnessed by jthe immediate relatives, friends and | distinguished men who followed the body to its temporary resting place. The serv- {ices at the late residence and at the ceme- | tery were simple and impressive. But for the expressed wish of the dead woman | that she be glven a private burial, thou- | sands of peoplc whe revered her for the good she had done would have followed | her to the grave That her noble deeds in behalf of the soldiers and the firemen were appreclated by those two important bodies was evi- denced by the presence of Major General | William R. Shafter, Lieutenant Johnson {and four soldiers, who acted as honorary and active pallbearers, and members of | the fire department. The fire department | also_expressed its high appreciation of the | dead woman by sending a beautiful floral plece and four captains of truck and en- gine companies to act as pallbearers. | " Mrs. Ella F. Murray, the daughter of | the deceased, Miss Nellie Rattigan, the | confidential secretary and companion, and Ying, the faithful Chinese servant, were | the only mourrers. Thomas T. Townsend. | the former husband of the dead woman, was conspicuous by his absence, but | Joseph Wilson Coburn, her brother, was | present and met his hiece for the first tme in thirty vears. The meeting was not an affectionate one, simply a hand clasp and a “pleased to meet you.” Mr. Coburn was accompanied by his sons, I. W.. Forrest, Martin and Charles. The father and sons were permitted to view the remains and were given a carriage to g0 to the burial grounds. A number of additional floral pieces were added to those already sent and the room wherein the body lay was a bower | of sweet smelling flowers. The handsome flag presented to Mrs. Townsend by the | executive committee which arranged the reception to the returning California Volunteers covered the magnificent cas- ket. A bunch of Marechal Neil rested on the flag. { During the services. which were con- | ducted by the Rey. Bradford Leavitt of the | First Unitarian Church, Mrs. Murray sat | in an adjoining room and was comforted | roses | by Rev. Charles Ramm of St. Mary's Cathedral. The Knickerbocker Male | Quartet. composed of H. Williams, | Dr, R. W. Smith, D. B. Crane and L. A | Larsen, rendered “Ablde With Me,” and | at the conclusion of the hymn, Dr. Lea- | vitt read the burial service. ‘When he | concluded, the quartet sang ‘“‘Nearer, My | God, to Thee." The minister then 'read | another chapter of the service and con- cluded by reading the psalm, “The God of the living.” He then.said tn part: “There Is a very beautiful custom observed in the Society of Friends, com- | monly called the Quakers, who, when some dear friend passes away, meet 10| pay their tribute of love and respect to his memory. They will sometimes sit and think a very long while without any one saying a word, ause they seem to recognize that the best that can be sald’ by even the best of us is poor stuff.

Writer of the Gospel says there were also | many other things that Jesus did, but it would take mary volumes to narrate his deeds. This is true of every true life. It is not what the world says or what the dear friends say—it is something else, it is the unwritten part that counts.

It is not what a man says or what he does; it is what he is, and back of that is found he is trying to be that counts. I not tell you what this woman has done in this community, because you know. Let us pray.” Dr. Leavitt then offered up prayer for the soldiers, the firemen, the police and members of the press. Another hymn by the quartet concluded the services. Those present took a last look at the generous woman's remains and the coffin was car- ried out to the hearse, ‘which was sur- rounded by hundreds of curious people. Major General William R.

The funeral cortege moved toward Laurel Hill Cemetery. On arriv- ing there the body was carried into the re- celving vault, and_after the quartet had rendered “Good Night, Am Going Home," Rev. Dr. Leaviit read the burial service. The services concluded with the singing of “Farewell.” It has_not been definitely settled whether the body is to be shipped to Dor- chester, Mass. Mrs. Murray is in favor of allowing her mother’s remains to rest in this city, where her good deeds en- deared her to the people.
