Oae day he noticed groups of people coming from every direction, i many o? them having evidently walked a long distance. It was not Sunday, yet these people were dressed in Sunday garb, and everywhere was the deepest solemnity. In response to the inquiry if a protracted meeting were going a mountaineer answered: "Naw, mister, but Mis3 Margarets dead." *k\TJan "\Tarororo; fhfi fltrftnaPr V> WMW ~ . Q | asked, inquiringly. "You'uns dont know Miss Margaret? She was the best woman ever lived, and she's dead." There were tears in the man's eyes. "Are all these people going to the funeral?" "'Deed they is mister; it'll be the biggest funeral ever seen in these parts." Deeply interested, the minister attached himself to one of the silent groups, and passed on with the long procession. It was a never-to-be-forgotten scene. The meeting-place was a plain, rough school-house. The cheap, plain coffin, the poorly-dre3sed ihrong, were all forgotten as the stranger gazed upon the still face of the girl lying in her last sleep. It was not a | beautiful face, but it wore, even in death, a look of high resolve and selfforg6tfuiue88 that thrilled the lookeron to the depths of his soul. The j throng3 what gathered round, beheld that face with streaming eyes. Who was she? What was she? Only the teacher of that humble mountain \ school. She had come, a stranger, | among these rude, ignorant people, j For the love of Christ ?he had labored, in season and out of seasoD, to teach the children, and also their elders, the better ways they bad never koown. Before she had been among them six months, the houses j were in better repair, und kept in a cleaner, more homelike fashion. The rough manners were softened; kindness and neighborly love were manifest as never before; the B;ble become a well-read, beloved Book. Many a soul had been led to Jesus by her simple words, and her beautiful, unselfish life. And now she was dead, leaving her flock bereft. Not one in all that company were her kindred, save as they were brothers aDdsister sin Christ Jeeus. Never was queen more truly mourned never granted truer honor, than this humble, quiet girl, who entered one of earth's dark corners, made it glorious with the knowledge of him who is the "light of the world."?S.

Washington, Judo 15.?Word has been received by the State department from Consul General Gummere r at Tangier that the bandit Raisuli has greatly increased his demands.

Elvie Summer, was born April 27th, 1881, and departed this life June 9 b, 1901, aged 23 years, 1 month and 12 days. He i leaves to mourn his early departure j a father and a mother, four brothers j j and three sisters, besides a large j i number of other relatives and friends. He was a good boy, a dutiful son j | and a true and worthy companion. ' -7 - > 11 111 Me was trutniui ana nonest m an i bis relationships, obedient to his parents, and kind to Lis friends. Be- j ing a young man of very few words, | i quiet and inoffensive in bis bearing j he won the love and respect of all j who knew him. He was never beard to complain, but willingly and faithfully performed the work wbioh his j hands found to do. In every relation j of life he pursued the even tenor of j I 1 awwww?M?W?? bis way in a quiet and unassumiog way, and no one can ever say that be was the cause of an tffense. But bi3 young life has come to an end. His familiar from has passed from our sight. He leaves a gocd name which will ever be cherished and remem bered by his friends. Time, like an ever rolling stream. Bears all its sons away: They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening clay. Like flowe ry fields the nations stand. Pleased with the morning light: The flowers beneath the mower's hand Lie withering ere 'tis night. Our God our Help in ages past. Our Hojx4 for years to come, Be Thou our Guard while troubles last. And our eternal Home !" J. D. F. Origin of a Cnsom. How many can tell the origin of the habit of closing the eyes in prayei? Far back in the pa9t the sun was the universal object of worship. As it rose above the horizon the devotee thanked it for its return to bless the world. As it set in the west he implored its return. His face was always toward the sun in prayer, and his eyes were closed to prevent blindness. The habit has passed down from father to son for thousands of years. Though the object of worship has been changed, the custom survives. Obituaries. Margaret Isabel Boone was born December 23, 1S32, and died May 23, 1904, aged 71 years and 5 months.

Strikes comes high, and besides the loss in money, J hey cripple industry and demoralizes labor almost beyond calculation. They benefit no one, for no matter who wins it will be a costly victory. An exchange speaking of the costs of strikes in Colorado in the past sixteen months, says it is estimated at more than $23,000,000. Of this the State had to pay $036,000 for maintaining troops in the field which had been necessary with short intervals since early in 1003. The loss to strikers and others directly a:fected in wages were $22, 40U.OUJ, including tno loss or dusiesi to empl lyers. C. C. JohDson, of Portamout, was sentenced to two years in prison for forging an illegal will of his wife. A new $G00,00O car line is to be built in Richmond. i!)
