and of course the farm will be run down

YALEDICTORY.

With this issue of the INTELLIGENCER
my editorial charge of the Teachers
Column closes, and my official connec-
ton with the educational interests of the
County ceases A little more than two
years ago at the command OF my fellow
citizens, with many doubts and misgiv.
ings, I took hold of the helm, aud took
in my charge the trust committed to my
keeping. And now, at the command of
my fellow citizens, surrender that same
trust as unsullied, as untarnished and as
sacred as when 1 received it. I have
done the best I could. Iu season and
out of season / have tried to be faithful
and conscientious in the discharge of my
duty as God gave me light to see it, and
now, at the close, am free to confess
that have fallen short of my own ideal.
That I have made mistakes l do not
deny-I would have been more than hu
man had not-but they have been mis-.
takes of the head and not of the heart.
From The hands of teachers and school
patrons I have received nothing but the
greatest kindness and courtesy. Their
hearts and hands and homes have ever
been open TO receive me, aud into my
retirement l shall carry nothing but
grateful memories of generous people.
To the teachers of the County l would
say, never lower your standard, never
forget that you are working, not simply
for the paltry dollars aud cents, but for a
higher and grander and nobler purpose,
never forget that you are working on hu-
man hearts and immortal minds that
will, in some measure, reflect yourselves
forever, in fact, never forget that you are
working, not alone Tor time, but for
eternity, and let the solemnilY of this
thought be your guiding star, and cause
you to fee fur guidance and direction to
the "Rock that is higher than l.
In conclusion, let me say to teachers,
patrons, one and all, that wherever my
lot may he cast, I shall feel an interest
in the welfare of yourselves and your
schools, aud shall be proud to hear of
your success And by the deep and
abiding love have for my native Coun-
ty and my native State, | hope to live
to see her common school system placed
in the foremost rank of her sister States,
and her teachers pointed to as models.

IN MEM0RIAM.

For the first time since We came into
Office death has invaded our ranks, and
one of our number, whose familiar form
and face we we're accustomed to greet at
all our Teachers Ass ociations and Insti-
tutes, has 'crossed over tho river" and
rests beneath "thc shade of the trees"
Miss Lucinda J. Drake passed peacefully
from earth to Heaven on Thursday, 4th
December, after long and painful ill
ness from typhoid fever. No more again
will we greet her upon earth. No more
again will her voice be heard by the
teachers in their meetings, or by her pu.
pills in the school room. Ever true ..nd
devoted as she was to all the finer sensi-
bilities of her nature, as woman and a
teacher, she exemplifed in her death the
pure, godly, upright life that she led
and lived day by day. Faithful and
conscientious, she was, to an unusual
degree, in the discharge of all her duties,
az daughter in the home of her parents,
as member of the community, as a
teacher in the school room, and as fol-
lower of the meek and lowly Nazarene,
her life has been blessing to those who
came within the sphere of her influence.
Her example, her eager interest in every.
thing that pcrtained to her life.work was
an inspiration to US all. Never can the
writer forget with what pleasure he Wis
tied her school room, and the delightful
hours spent with her in passing in review
the work of her school room. With her
it was labor of love, and she worked as
one who realized, to the fullest extent,
that she was working upon tablets more
enduring than those of marble or brass,
tablets that would outlast all the vicissi-
tudes of time, survive the "wreck of
worlds and the crush of NATTER" and
live through endless ages. Never can
the writer forget her eager, fearful face
as he etood before the last Teachers In
stitute and spoke the parting words of
farewell, aud referred to the fact that
God had been gracious to US, iu that our
ranks we're still unbroken, and with
what tremulous voice she Joined in the
closing song, "God be with you till we
meet again." How true the words
God, indeed, will be with her and keep
her till we meet again.
During the closing hours of her illness
she was perfectly rational and conscious
of the approach Of the grim monster,
and expressed perfect faith and confi-
dence in her Saviour, and when her feet
touched the brink of the stream she told
the loved ones standing around that she
WAS entering the water, and to a loved
brother who inquired, she replied that
the waters were not cold, and as she
passed over her last word was ''peace."
In the name and for the sake of the
teachers of the County, we pen this lov.
ing tribute to her memory, and come to
place 8 chaplet upon her grave, and we
turn away striving to initiate her virtues,
emulate her example, and with a deep
tenderness in our heart that our last off.
cial act is one of such profound sorrow.

MOUNT ADAMS ICE CAVES.
A Pity for New Workers That
Mount Adams Is So Far Away.

A Pity for New Workers That
Mount Adams Is So Far Away.
Spokane Falls Review.
Away up 1000 feet above the Column
bia river, at the base of Mount Adams,
whose symmetrical cone-like peak is
covered with perpetual snow, lies
beautiful little lake surrounded by
broad meadows and fed by stream of
purest water, taking its rise in the snow
fields ten or twelve miles. away. The
caves are within few miles of Trout
lake. for so this mountain gem, like
hundreds of others in this wonderful
country of lakes, is called, for the
reason that trout-filled basins are SO
common that the discoverer, averse to
taxing his brain for an original name.
has Seen fit to dub his find with his fiSrt
thought. As yet only six large caves
have been discovered, but as the whole
country gives forth hollow, reverb
Grating SOUND to the heel-tap of the hob
nailed mountain shoe of the visitor, it
is highly probably there are many
more.
One of these ice caves, the largest
one, is used by the farmers as a cold
storage warehouse for butter and milk,
and certainly answers the purpose ad-
mlrably. The entrance is like into a
clstern, ana the adveuturer lowers
himself into the chilly atmosphere by
means of rope. The interior of the
cave is composed of one large apart
ment about eighty feet square. The
cave is walled with ice around, above,
and below; with huge icicles of stalac-
tite and stalagmite formation obstruct-
ing complete view, as well as forming
obstacles to exploration, but atfording
the most gorgeous pictures in the light
of flaming pitch torch.
The effect is simply Undesirable,
but at the same.time most fascinating,
especially when seen on hot August
day. The huge pendants of pure, trans
lucent ice reflect and scintillate the
ruddy glow of the torch in a bewilder-
ing maze of color and thousand rays
of light.
The air is clear. dry cold. even on
the hottest day. There is no dampness
or moisture: the ice is not melting. but
is hard and cold and dry, as in mid
winter. A few moments in the cave and
ones very biood is chilled, fact which
is as yet. no doubt. the cause of thor
Ough exploration of the cave never
having been made. There are, per-
haps. other and adjoining caverns
which very probably open out from the
main apartment and form an Icelandic
labyrinth.
