Maine Wesleyan Seminary an,
MIR, Blaine.

No public political man has probably done
more for this institution in money, books and
efficient aid in securing donations and sppro-
pristions from the State. than Mr.. Blaine. In
behalf of the many thousands of alumni, and
other friends of the school it is to me both a

with which they were given, inspired with
courage and hope the Respondent agent.
OF this the following instance is illustrative
Our bell having been broken, and there
being no funds to purchase another, called
on Mr.. Blaine, and. in the fewest words,
stated my case. The catechism to which So
Letting agents are generally subjected was
short-simply. "How much is needed to pay
the difference between the value of the old
bell and the cost of the new one?" replied
perhaps $3.50. His check for that
amount was at once given. and went home

of the subject, and keen feeling of our
sore financial need, limited to me that the
cost of the frame and wheel might not have
been taken into account; and plucking up
courage, dropped a note to Mr.. Blaine.

more Without a word of comment on the
suspicious laundering CD the next mail
rather astonshed and surely delighted me
with another check for the sum named In
thanking MIR. Blaine for his prompt and
efficient aid in obtaining appropriations from
the State, il is but justice for me to say that
the $40 600 given 10 the school at one time
was carried through the House of Represen-
tatives entirely through Mr.. Blaine's gener-
Gus helm.
In this statement of Mr.. Blaine's valuable
friendship to the Maine Wesleyan Seminary,
it must not be understood that his interest in
education and literary INSTITUTIONS was
special and narrow-veined. My connection
with the committee of education, on the part
of the Senate, for several years, and with the
important changes in our common school
system, and the various movements tn
improve our State schools, gave me ample
evidence of Mr.. Blaine's unsefsh. earnest
devotement to every vital interest dear to the
heart of our intelligent people.
While we do not ask the friends of the
Seminary to violate their political convic-
tons. it is entirely proper for us to call on
those whose views on national issues coincide
with those of this distinguished statesman, not
to forget his large hearted generosites

slurring the Germans and saying that the
amendment to the constitution in this State

ure. The letter was forged for circula

nounced it an unmitigated lie. but the

The Governorship OF Montana

WASHINGTON, d. G., November Cd
Joseph X. Towle, the new delegate from.
Montana, who succeeds Martin Msgin-
mis-, is from st. Joseph, Mo. "Young,
handsome, q bachelor, and eminently
qualified for the POSITION" is the way the
retiring delegate describes him. Mr.
Maginnis made something more than a
formal call at the executive mansion this
afternoon, and was accompanied by Az
sistant Postmaster General Crosby, late
governor of Montana. The place
which Crosby vacated is still open,
Crosby is q warm personal friend
of the president and Maginnis sustains a
similar relation to tho ex governor. 1t
is not difficult to draw conclusions as to
the meaning of this afternoons visit.
The retiring delegate is q Democrat,
but an ex federal officer and a Grand
Army man. In making MaginnIs gov.
ernor the president would leave one ap,
pointee not likely to be disturbed by the
new administration, and at the same
time would put into practical operation
for the first time since the Chicago con.
vention that plank in the platform favor

LEFT THE CITY.
Tyler Cummings Puts Himself Out
of the Reach of His creditors.

Tyler Cummings, who is pretty well
known among the newspaper Offices at
least, has been extending his acquaintance
here at least, by the peculiar way in
which he embarked in the clothing bust
ness, and peculiar name in which he
has forsaken it. Lately he opened up
here what he claimed to be a branch of
Wanamaker 81 Browns great clothing
establishment, and claiming to be their
agent, commenced taking orders for
suits. About a week ago he suddenly
disappeared, and numerous creditors are
now mourning his absence. 1t Is now
claimed that he was in no sense an agent
for the house named, but that he was
simply soliciting for orders, on commits
sion, for an Omaha agent. 1t is rumored
that he has gone to Texas and will not
return to Council Bluffs. He has a wife
and little child here, as well as a mother
and they are reported az being
sorely in need of his earnings to procure
the necessaries Of life. Cummings is an
active, smart young man, but does not
seem to stick to any one business very
long. 1t is said that in getting credit
here under the pretence of being an
agent for Wanamaker 81 Brown that he
has laid himself liable to the law, and
some of those who got nipped will at.
tempt to give him the benefit of the law
should he return.

FUNERAL FAULTS.
A Call for Reform In Customs Con.
corning Bereavement.

At st. Paul's church yesterday morn
ing the rector, Rev. T. j. Mackey, gave
his hearers some practical remarks on a
rather delicate subject-that of customs
In regard to funerals. He chose for his
text passages descriptive of the last end
ofthe great patriarch Jacob, and how the
people mourned him seven days, and the
elaborate arrangements made by Joseph
expressive of the great grief felt at his
fathers death. To the Hebrew, death
meant an eternity of rest after a lifetime
of work. There was no idea of heaven,
40 clear conception of future life, or the
resurrection. 1t was simply "beipp
gathered to his fathers" For
thousands of years Jobs question:
'lf a man die shall he live aQain?' rs-
manned unanswered. There were
developing thoughts Of the lite beyond,
but they only budded into maturity
under the light of Christianity, and even
when Christ spoke 30 clearly In regard
to resurrection he was misunderstood by
his hearers. All these ancient, and the
Oriental nations, thought dying was a re.
progression, a going down, and death ss
a loss. Better be a slave here than a
king in hades. They spoke of death
only with a wall of sadness, but with
the dawn of Christianity all doubt
ended. There were no more SIS" but
