Russia has appointed new governor of
Penjdeh. Confidence which was slightly
shaken by reports of the advance of the

The uneasiness was caused only by the
augmented Russian forces at Zulfkar and
the line of communication with the Cas-
plan. The negotiations continue friendly
but tardy. The Standard thinks Russia
wants Marachak and will accede to Eng
lands demands for Zulfikar to compensate
for the concession of the former place.

VERY DEAR BROTHER BAIRD: Among
other matters. in recent issue of a
kirksville paper, I observed a wei
written article relative to the death of
your dear Father, who has passed from
earth away like the faithful Aoraha m.
Your father was permitted to live to
good old age-a good man, useful.
loved and respected. How much have
you and his children to be grateful for
in the blessing OF good parents. The
good old soldier is at rest and no
doubt in the enjoyment of the
transcendent and unalloyed glories in
the sweetest eden above the '.far
away home OF the SOUL You have a
close place in our sYmpathies IN this
bereavement. There is much for Your
cheer and hope as you stand on
"memory's golden shore and think of
the noble traits Of that dear father
who shall die no more.
Lilies duty done, as sinks the clay.
Light from its load the spirit flies,
While heaven and earth combine to say
How blessed the righteous, when he dies. -
The sun of human existence shines
at best, but a little while in this
beautiful world. But it, by grace, may
rise and shine never to go down in
that most delightful land of "rever
whitening flowers" beyond the
swelling of Jordan"
You and sister Baird and all the
family receive our best regards.
Truly, Jas. E. SHARP.
