In Memoriam.
f Written For The Herald.
(Lines affectionately dedictated to Dr.
Brabham on the death of his wife.)
Oh! Angel of death thou hast taken away
/ The sweetest of earth's rare flowers,
And left our hearts sore, sad and lone,
And oh! such dreary hours.
We loved her so, her gentle smile
Would brighten the darkest day,
And when thy wings came fluttering
. near,
We shuddered and turned away.
*. ..Gone in the beautiful Spring of life
From those who loved her well,
p* Gone from a world of sin and pain
|k Hid scenes of bliss to dwell.
| We miss her in our mission work,
She was zealous, kind and true;
> We miss her in the Sunday-school,
And the league misses her too.
j* W% miss her in the choir,
That sweet and gentle tone

^ *. ; . 't->
Then, Vance, don't let your heart be
Or grieve for your darling, absent dead;
Don't let your fondest hopes be buried,
Down in that dark and narrow bed.
Bat look upward, press onward, faith the
r;; star
To guide your feet up the mansions# of
love,
And let hope whisper fondly when sad is
your heart,
Of the blessed reunion that waits you
above.
' And when a dow n the rolling river
Yon too float by the sun set lea,
Softly you'll enter the evening shadow
Into the light where she waits for thee.

Qone Forever.
Ten years ago an Allen county, Kansas,
fanner pnt his initials on a dollar bill.
The next day he went to the nearest
town and spent it with a merchant. Before
the year was oat he cot the dollar
- hack. Four times in six years the dollar
eame back to him for produce and three
times he heard of it in the pockets of his
neighbors. The last time he got it back
was four years ago. He sent it to a mail
order house. He has never seen that
dollar since, nor never will. That dollar
bill will.never pay any more school or
road tax for him, will never build or
brighten any of the homes of the community.
He sent it entirely out of the
circle of usefulness to himself and his
neighbors. Don't send your money to
mail order houses, but trade in your home
town and you may get it again.

just recovering from a spree when his
companions conceived the idea that to
place a snake iu the water Jug might
teach Deuser a lesson. A harmless
reptile was captured, deposited in the
jug and corked up.
Deuser's thirst caused him to seek
the Jug, and the jokers watched his actions
with great interest. He removed
the cork and had the jug within two
inches of his lips when the head of the
reptile emerged. With a wild scream
Deuser hurled the jug to the ground
and ran until he reached the Columbia
river, six miles distant. He plunged
into the stream and lapped the water
like a dog. He was wading into deep
water when his pursuers captured him.
PHONOGRAPH KEEPS
HER DYING WORDS
Wife Talks Daily Into Cylinder So Hus
band May Always near
Her Voice.
With death near at hand, Mrs. Edward
J. Mungen, the wife of a wealthy
oil operator of Fostoria, .0., talks daily
into a phonograph so that when she
shall have passed away her voice may
cheer her sorrowing husband.
Together the Mungens have made a
tour of the world, and in each place of
interest they visited Mrs. Mungen has
recorded upon the cylinder her impression
of the sights seen. Besides, much
of the conversation between herself
and her husband is recorded by the
phonograph.
When the physicians at Fostoria and
Toledo pronounced the "death sentence"
upon Mrs. Mungen, who is now
seventy-one years old, they said she
probably would live longer If taken to
other climates. Thereupon the Mungens
set out upon a globe encircling
tour. The other day they arrived in
Denver, having come from India via
Victoria, Seattle, Portland and Salt
Lake. If the doctors think Mrs. Mungen's
present-state of health will per/^\
TTRTR WORDS WILL BE REPEATED TO HIM.
mit they will make a tour of Colorado.
Upon arriving here Mrs. Mungen's
first act was to repeat into the phonograph
her impfessions of the sights between
here and Salt Lake. She has
a little chest in which she keeps cylinders,
which contain comments neither
her husband nor any one else has ever
heard. These will be repeated to him
by the machine after Mrs. Mungen
dies.
"It will be like making another tour
of the world with Mrs. Mungen," he
said. He is sixty-eight years old, but
possesses a rugged constitution.
Butterflies Hide the Sun.
Myriads of butterflies, all moving in
a general southerly direction over 8t
Louis, attracted much attention on a
recent afternoon, particularly in the
business streets. Broadway was dotted
with little groups of men who craned
their necks and shaded their eyes
against the Bun while they stared at
the unusual spectacle. Occasionally the
clouds of butterflies were so thick that
they obscured the sun. The butterflies
were very large, some measuring about
three inches from tip to tip of their
wings, and were of a flock occasionally
circling, but all maintaining a general
progress southward.
Cooked In a Boiler.
Literally cooked alive in a boiler into
which steam was turned by mistake,
Boilermaker Gustav F. Friend, thirty
years old, of Vincennes, Ind., lived five
hours, with his flesh dropping from him
in chunks. He remained conscious and
arranged all his worldly affairs, bade
his family goodby and then prayed
with his pastor until death came.

Mrs. Helen L. Bullock.
Mrs. Helen L. Bullock, national
organizer of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union, spent last Thursday
and Friday in Bamberg in the
interest of the work. She spoke
Thursday and Friday nights in the
Methodist church, and those who
heard her were charmed. She im|
presses one as being very much in
j earnest, and her plea for the salvation
of men and boys from the curse
of strong drink, very deeply impresses
her hearers.
She is not fanatical nor extravagant
in her statements, but has at
her command facts and figures to
substantiate her arguments. It is
to be regretted that more of ourj
people did not hear her. It is sel-i
dom that we have an opportunity to
hear so cultured and sensible a
woman on a subject of so great importance
to us.
The result of her visit was the
organization of a local union. All
the women of the town and community
are invited to become members,
and the men may become associate
members.
The body of Judson Kirby, a
young white man, 18 years old, was
found in the town of Union last
Tuesday afternoon dead with a pistol
lying by his side. It is supposed he
committed suicide. He was employed
at the knitting mill there.

Pandemonium at a Circus.
A serious riot occured at Coal v Island,
County Tyrone, on Monday night, in
which some circus performers and a mob
of about 400 people were concerned.
The trouble arose through a man, who
was examining the circns wagons, refusing
to move off after being requested to
go by a member of the circus company.
The man then appears to have been
roughly handled by some of the circus
party, whereupon a crowd quickly gathered
and attacked the circus with bricks
and stones. They seemed likely to
attempt a rush, but eight or nine of the
performers, armed with "property" revolvers
and swords, charged on horseback,
temporarily scattering their assailants.
Shortly afterwards the police arrived
and flung themselves between the combatants,
three constables being injured
in the struggle.
After two hours' pandemonium, Father
Brown succeeded in dispersing the crowd,
but the circus had to leave the town.?
