thirty-six, was without doubt the mosi
gifted natural mathematician the world

was examined by all the great mathema
iicians Of England. At one Of these exam
nations he raised the number successive
ly TO the sixteenth power, and in naming
the last result, which consisted Of fifteen
figures, he WAS right in every one.
On being asked the square root of l06,
g29, he answered 325 before the old gray
haired philosopher questioner had time to
put it down He was next asked how
many minutes there were in forty weight
years and instantly replied p. 22s, 800, and

thirty-six hours.
Claude was stricken down in the
morning of life, being only 16
years, 5 months and Is days old.
Seldom has it become our duty to
chronicle the death of 30 promis-
ing a youth. In November 1890,
he became member Of the Chris
tian church and continued a con-
sistent member of the same until
the day of his death. He took q
deep interest in the study of the
Bible and was a regular attendant
at the Sunday school. He was in
dustrious, obedient to his parents,
and general favorite with the
young people among whom he
associated. He always made a
confdant of his mother, thinking
| that ne could not 20 wrong Wnlle
following her counsels. Stunning
all sorts of immortality, he always
sought good company.
The funeral services took place
last Monday, at 2 p. M, at the
Christian church IN the presence
of q very large audience, it being
estimated that 800 persons were
pretent..
The sermon was preached by
Prof. G. II. Lsughlin from the
text-"If a Man Die Shall he Live

you till we meet again" was beau.
