The funiral of 'the laie Charles Cheshire was hold yesterday at 238 Temple street, Astoria, at the residence of his i son in law, the Rev. James A. McMillan, pastor of Grace M. B. Church, Astoria.

Mr. Cheshire died Thanksgiving eve, in the 69th year of his age. Hi3 death was the result of paralysis, induced by a fall on the Ice last i winter. A pathetic incident connected with i his death was the return of his brother, Fleming D. Creshire, after an absence of thirty years, as secretary of legation at Peking, China.

The brother arrived unexpectedly, hut Just in time for a deathbed reunion. Mr. Cheshire was "born in Mauhattan, but his parents moved to Brook lyn when he was 8 years old. When he reached manhood he became interested in Republican politics, in which he was always prominent. His first political position was that of clerk to Provost Marshal Maddox, father of Justice Samuel T.

Maddox; then he held the position of supervisor of the Thirteenth Ward for a number of years. After this he was in the Department of Assessors, where he held office for thirty years and was esteemed an expert in real estate valuations. He used to lead the singing in old South Second Street Church before the days of the introduction of musical instruments. Patrick Higgins, one of the oldeet and best known residents, of East Xew York, d'ied at his home, 729 Liberty avenue, Friday evening in the C2d year of his age. He came to t'h'is country in early manhood and had.

lived, forty ycirs in Bast New York, where he built up an extensive business and became wealthy as a mason and plasterer. He was ill for more than a year of a complication of diseases, and was attended by Dr. Eliard. Mr. Higgins was a faithful and prominent York ana BrooKiyn.

A Democrat Who Does Not Eavo? Meyenborg for Assessor. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: I saw reported in a recent issue of the Eaghs that Alderman 'MattCiew E. Dpoley, the newly elected executive member of the Twelfth Assembly District, and who assumes tiift leadership of the same, had recommended the appointment of John B. Meyenborg to tha assesscrshlp left vacant hy the death ot Jcran Delmar, and that Mr. Dooley's recommendation had been indorsed by the peopla down town.

If the latter statement were reversed 'it would be much neare the truth. The published statement went on to say that the selection of Mr. Meyenborg gave general satisfaction in the Now, thai Is anything but true. He is of the chronl office holding variety, having held various offices in this county for fiftee.n years, it you want to find' approval for such appointments you must look for it outside of the Twelfth Assembly District. It certainly ia not apparent to the Democrats of this district.

In fact, they cannot see where Mr. Meyenborg come in to receive such favor the hands of the Democratic leaders. It is safe to say that the Democratic voters of fae district did not send a petition nor did any large delegation go to the leaders to ask tor the appointment of Mr. Meyenborg. Mr.

Dooley Is a young man and I would like to se him successful, but these kind cf appoint ments will not add luster to his leadership. Had the position been tendered to Joseph W. Duffy, who was as well qualified and certainly more entitled to it than any other man in the district, such an appointment would be a reward for merit and services rendered to' the party. True the leadership was tendered him by the district committee, a position which his health would not permit him to accept. If he was so well thought of, why was he not aD 1 pointed to the assessorship? It fs a position less arauous ana more reaiuueratttve tfian tuo position he now holds in the Surrogate's office.

Then, some other young active Democrat could be found without going outside th district to flil the place vacated by Mr. Duffy. Such a policy would be more in lino with true Democratic principles, and would the young men of the district, on which the party must depend for success in the future. I mentioned Mr. Duffy as probably the most entitled to preference for his long and active service in tjie party.

There are scores of other young men in the district who have done good service for the party who are as well qualified and more entitled to preference than Mr. eyeaborg. I am satisfied that Mr. Dooley had little to do with it, though he will have to accept the responsibility. M.

On Tuesday night the season at the Metropolitan Opera House will open with "Tann hauser." and the week will introduce all of Sir. Grail's great stars who have yet arrived and will have, in addition. Melba. woo is only guest with the tirau turces tins year ana wili sing in opera in New York only a few The production of Puccini's "La Bo 'heme" in English, by the Castle Square Company, at the American, described in another column, will interest many Brooklyn music lovers. The performance of "Tann hatiser" on Tuesday will introduce Ernst Van Dyck.

the young Belgian tenor, who is to share the bosorc of the German season with Jean de ResxUc. The official biographies say that Van Dyck was born in IStil and that he was a reporter before he went upon the stage, tut he has been chief tenor of the Vienna opera for some ten years or so. has sung repeatedly at Beyrouth and holds in Europe more nearly the position which De Keszkc tholds here than does any other singer. Chicago, which didn't take kindly to the company as a whole, concedes that Van Dyck's voice is unworn, that he is handsome and a good actor; so we are probably cctreinly fortunate in our new tenor. The interest will De divided between Van Dyck and our two Americans.

Plaocon has forgiven the loot of' Aisace and Lorraine sufficiently io learn the pari of the Landgrave in German: Bispham will act "Wolfram and sing the song to the evening star, aud the cast generally will be competent, ilan will lead.

As it is a notorious face that blind horses are doing good work in Brooklyn streets, Mr. Hayden's arguimeat seems to be ail right.
