Many Hundreds of Citizens Pay Tribute to William Kilroy’s Faithfulness. The Methodist church was crowded to. overflowing last evening, many persons being turned away, and the memorial services held there in respect to the late William Kilroy, the murdered nightwatchman,. were eminently appropriate and expressive of public sentiment. Being Easter Sunday the sacred edifice was beautifully decorated with lilies, ferns and other choice plants. The membefs of the Board of City Trustees and other officials and prominent citizens occupied seats near the pulpit. After the choir had rendered the grand old hymn “Nearer My Ged to Thee,” the pastor, Rev. J. W. Phelps, delivered an impressive prayer, which was followed by the anthem “One Sweetly Solemn Thought.” Pastor Phelps then made some brief but fitting introductory rémarks regarding the occasion and object of the meeting. He said that only a short time ago he had met the late officer Kilroy and in conversation remarked to him that he believed’ he was a brave and good officer. The latter said that Mie proposed to do his duty, and‘ evidenced some doubt as to whether his course was fully,sustained by the people. The speaker hoped the meeting would have the effect of nerving the new nightwatchman, Henry Fowler, and help him to be a good officer. No one could say to Mr. Kilroy these words ‘of cheer and approval, but to the little son who survives him can be told, when he becomes older, how on Easter Sunday evening the people of Nevada City held a public meeting to commemorate the bravery and good deeds of his father. Ex-Senator Preston was then introdaced and addressed the audience. “We havé assembled this” evening,” said the speaker, “for the purpose of giving a just meed of praise to the late William Kilroy and to uphold the officers whose duty it is to preserve the peace and quiet of the community. A Pascoe, a Douglass, a Kilroy—three brave, fearless officers—sacrificed their purpose of the meeting was to discuss the situation and conditions that led up to the commission of the recent crime. No matter how good the laws are, if the community does not sustain the law and uphold the officers in enforcing them anarchy will prevail. We are all haman and subject to the decision of public opinion. This has much to do with the excessive lawlessness in our midst. He referred to the famous vigilance committee in San Francisco many years ago and stated the cause of its organization. “We as a community are indirectly responsible for this marder and must each and all share a portion of -the responsibility.” Ifa community does not uphold the laws the laws will be ignored. It was highly appropriate that we should assemble and consider the causes that to be a law on the statute books making the crime of resisting an officer next in degree to murder. In closing his remarks Mr. Preston the hope that the meeting would have the effect of molding public sentiment in favor of giving the strongest moral pretty solo entitled, “The Man of Sorrow.” : DOING HIS DUTY. torney, was then introduced and spoke this life in the discharge of his duty. —iti the ful! flash and vigor of man. was shot down by the midnight assassin. To err is human, to forgive divine. support to our peace officers when per-. loyal men. Hon. Thomas 8. Ford, the city’s atin substance as follows: Friends and Neighbors. We meet to pay the last tribute of respect to a brave and fearless officer who departed Bat two days since and William Kilroy hood—the future bright before him— From life to death. How sudden the transition. ‘Tis — Da of an eye—the draught ofa rea’ : From the blossom of health to the paleness of death, from ee gilded saloon to the bier and the shroud, Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud.” His demise caused a thrill of horror to pervade this community. He was the terror of evil:doers. They secretly rejoice, but good men mourn. It has been said that Kilroy had not the moral support of. this community in his discharge of duty. Not so. He had the support of all true and loyal men. The lawless element—and they are few with us — may not have sustained him in his efforts to preserve the good name and peace of this community. I wish they were here tonight that they might feel the moral influence of this assemblage. But they are not numbered among those who attend churches at any time, or any place. g “But it is said the law did not suystain him. -That is not true. There was a failure in the administration of the law. The law itself is perfect. It has been extolled by philosophers of all ages as the perfection of all reason. The law is not to blame. Justice is as broad as the starry firmament above. The law is founded on principles of strict morality. “Law pervades all the mental, moral and material world. The most beautiful of ail sciences. The glorious sun that shines above, the little earth that swings around it, the tiniest flower that blossoms in the wildwood, the eataract that leaps from the mountain side, the storm that. tosses old ocean, the thunder’s rattle, and the lightning’s flash are all the exemplars of the beauties of some natural law. “The artificial laws of society are inof buman nature. The spirit is willing duty; he never shirked. After life’s fitful fever he sleeps well. But the manner of his death must be held in fellow men. “ Tis sweet indeed to close the eres Ww hen sorrowing frieuds are nigh; When wafted upward, through their sighs We're berne te realms on high; Bat whether on the seaffold high Or in the battle’s van, The noblest place that man can die Is where be dies for man, “This object lesson will not soon be forgotten. But we must infuse into the community such high moral stamina, such fear of the law, that the murders of the Pascoes, the Douglases and the Kilroys shall become well nigh impossible. We should respect our officers—of all classes. Our municipal officers especially have not received tbat respect they are entitled to. Our city trustees are men of the highest integrity and of knowr ability. They serve this community without money and without price. Their time and energy are expended in a_ self-sacrificing manner on our behalf. And yet how are their efforts rewarded ? Their actions are criticized, and their motives often impugned by the malcontents who can see no'good in anything they do. Many good men have been driven from the position after serving one term. And often those whe pay the least taxes make the most noise. Our town trustees act according to their best judgment. Who can do better? They should, and I know they will, have the moral support of all good and Miss Evelyn Reynolds sang a very tended to be no less perfect. But they . abiding community each person must are given to us robed in the infirmities . answer for himself and all should be but the flesh weak.

For the. mill can never grind with the waters that are past. But the future is full of hope. The cloud. has its silver lining. On this beautifal Kaster—when the stone as of old, will dawn upon us. The moral effect of this deed will be farcated in the end. “Sorrow is our common lot, The —no longer hear the welcome voice of hearted assassin heed the silent voice of the innecent child. How sad that. evil falls upon the weak and helpless. That little child can hardly realize the depth of woe. It is better as itis.” “Ah well, for us all some sweét hope lies Buried sone. from human eyes; And in the hereafter, angels may Roll, from its grave, the stone away.” The beautiful anthem, “The Flower Land,” was rendered by the choir, Mrs. H. C. Schroeder singing the solo part, Hon. J. M. Walling was the next speaker. He said that one would think it strange in view of the-word and principles taught by churches and by the various societies teaching morality,that such a crime would be committed. It would seem that all these influences would make it safe for people to go about and that they might lie downand sleep in peace. The better class of people in a community too often wait until an overt act is committed before doing anything towards sustaining the officers or helping to enforce the laws. Public opinion’is much to blame. If villainy and lawlesness are encouraged it breeds a disregard for the law. It is. best to enforce all laws and if some are not proper or contrary to public sentiment a remedy can be easily found. The community might be somewhat to blame in this instance, but he did not think this could be applied to any considerable degree. It is seldom that a tan becomes a great criminal at a single leap; he breaks municipal laws at first, then: goes further. The entire community is respcnsible for what its citizens do. If every child could be taught the great importance of respecting the laws it would have a good effect in preventing crime. If we want a lawin favor ef observing the law.

Resoivep, third, That we regard any attack. upon or abuse of our officers while acting in the discharge of official duty as an attack upon the good Dame and upon the welfare of this community, and that we will use all lawful means to: secure prompt conviction and punishment of any and all who may hereafter be guilty of abusing or resisting an officer while in the performance of his official duties. RESOLVED, fourth, That we extend our heartfelt sympathies to the mourning kindred of the deceased, particularly to the bereaved orphan, John Elisworth Kilroy, who has thus, by the hand of a midnight assassin, been -deprived of parental sympathy and protection. ReEsotven, fifth, That a copy of these resolutions, suitably inseribed, be presented, through his guardian, to John Elsworth Kilroy, the orphaned son of our lamented policeman. Upon the conclusion ofthe reading of the resolutions a vote of approval was taken, all present rising to their feet. The choir sang “Jesas, Lover of My Soul,” and with a benediction from the ing will be fruitful of much good ‘for the community andthat it will cause the better element of our people to be more solicitous regarding our peace forcement of laws and the upholdizg of officers-in the faithful and proper discharge of their duties.

He was sure the meeting and the sentiments that had been expressed would result in good to this community: Parson Phelps then made a few remarks and said that in common with he would be satisfied “when the miserable wretch who shot officer Kilroy is apprehended and hung by the neck until dead.” This emphatic but sincere expression of feeling found an echo in the hearts of the audience and evoked an outburst of applause, which are as follows: without cause or provocation, and Fresh Milch Cows For Sale. ment Hill. apl-iw Mr. Phelps stated that a set of reso” lutions had been prepared and were ready to be submitted to the meeting. .

There was a failure in the administration of the law. The law itself is perfect. It has been extolled by philosophers of all ages as the perfection of all reason. The law is not to blame. Justice is as broad as the starry firmament above. The law is founded on principles of strict morality. “Law pervades all the mental, moral and material world. The most beautiful of ail sciences. The glorious sun that shines above, the little earth that swings around it, the tiniest flower that blossoms in the wildwood, the eataract that leaps from the mountain side, the storm that. tosses old ocean, the thunder’s rattle, and the lightning’s flash are all the exemplars of the beauties of some natural law. “The artificial laws of society are inof buman nature. The spirit is willing duty; he never shirked. After life’s fitful fever he sleeps well. But the manner of his death must be held in fellow men. “ Tis sweet indeed to close the eres Ww hen sorrowing frieuds are nigh; When wafted upward, through their sighs We're berne te realms on high; Bat whether on the seaffold high Or in the battle’s van, The noblest place that man can die Is where be dies for man, “This object lesson will not soon be forgotten. But we must infuse into the community such high moral stamina, such fear of the law, that the murders of the Pascoes, the Douglases and the Kilroys shall become well nigh impossible. We should respect our officers—of all classes. Our municipal officers especially have not received tbat respect they are entitled to. Our city trustees are men of the highest integrity and of knowr ability. They serve this community without money and without price. Their time and energy are expended in a_ self-sacrificing manner on our behalf. And yet how are their efforts rewarded ? Their actions are criticized, and their motives often impugned by the malcontents who can see no'good in anything they do. Many good men have been driven from the position after serving one term. And often those whe pay the least taxes make the most noise. Our town trustees act according to their best judgment. Who can do better? They should, and I know they will, have the moral support of all good and Miss Evelyn Reynolds sang a very tended to be no less perfect.

For the. mill can never grind with the waters that are past. But the future is full of hope. The cloud. has its silver lining. On this beautifal Kaster—when the stone as of old, will dawn upon us. The moral effect of this deed will be farcated in the end. “Sorrow is our common lot, The —no longer hear the welcome voice of hearted assassin heed the silent voice of the innecent child. How sad that. evil falls upon the weak and helpless. That little child can hardly realize the depth of woe. It is better as itis.” “Ah well, for us all some sweét hope lies Buried sone. from human eyes; And in the hereafter, angels may Roll, from its grave, the stone away.” The beautiful anthem, “The Flower Land,” was rendered by the choir, Mrs. H. C. Schroeder singing the solo part, Hon. J. M. Walling was the next speaker. He said that one would think it strange in view of the-word and principles taught by churches and by the various societies teaching morality,that such a crime would be committed. It would seem that all these influences would make it safe for people to go about and that they might lie downand sleep in peace. The better class of people in a community too often wait until an overt act is committed before doing anything towards sustaining the officers or helping to enforce the laws. Public opinion’is much to blame. If villainy and lawlesness are encouraged it breeds a disregard for the law. It is. best to enforce all laws and if some are not proper or contrary to public sentiment a remedy can be easily found. The community might be somewhat to blame in this instance, but he did not think this could be applied to any considerable degree. It is seldom that a tan becomes a great criminal at a single leap; he breaks municipal laws at first, then: goes further. The entire community is respcnsible for what its citizens do. If every child could be taught the great importance of respecting the laws it would have a good effect in preventing crime. If we want a lawin favor ef observing the law.
