Obituary..

Two weeks ago we made brief huen-
ton of the death of the husband OF
Kate (Thrasher) Cooper. We are
glad to publish the following more
extended notice of his life and death,
furnished by his pastor, Rev. A. H.
Boyd:
David Marvel Cooper died at Lyn-
don, Kansas ON Sunday evening Nov.
18th, 1898 at lO:45 p. m. aged Al years
10 months and q days.
Mr.. Cooper was born Jan. 18th, 1852
in Kent county, Delaware, in which
county he continued to reside until
1879 when he removed to the State of
Kansas.
He was engaged in teaching school
for sometimeafter his settlement in this
State. Teaching first in the public
schools of Linn county.
In 1881 he graduated from Normal
School at Paola and soon after was
made Principal of Usage Mission Pub
lie School which position he held for
one year.
In the year 1883 at Paola he was ad-
mitted to the Bar. In the month of
August this same year he was mar
ried to Miss Kate Thrasher at Law
renee, Kans., and soon thereafter he
came to Lynden where he has since
resided.
Mr.. Cooper during his residence
here was engaged in the real estate
together with his chosen profession
the law
In business Mr.. Cooper was careful,
conservative and strictly honest.
The interest of his client was his in
terest and commanded at all times
all his powers.
His careful and close attention to
minute details and his broad and &C
curate knowledge of affairs made his
business judgment safe and sound.
In society he was a man of few
words, not much given to frivality yet
he was ever genial. kind and attentive
possessed of a personal attractiveness
which drew to him a large circle of
personal friends who highly valued
him.
Mr.. Cooper was man who dearly
loved his home and his home life was
something beautiful indeed.
With his little family gathered
about him when the business of the
day was ended he found his greatest
pleasure in their entertainment and
comfort.
But he has gone out from all these.
The family circle is broken.
The wife and his five children who
survive him miss his presence and
CHEEKY greetings. His friends and

Japanese Rronzes.

In the mixing of alloys Japanese
bronze workers have surpassed those of
all other nations Their great skill
consists in producing alloys that will
take on patina which shall become
more beautiful by the wear and polish
which an article in daily use will be
sure to obtain In a collection of
sword hits exhibited by Mr.. Deakin
there are many beautiful examples Of
the results which may be obtained by
the combination of various metals and
alloys By these combinations a work
in bronze attains almost the quality of
q painting in colors. Two of the ia
vorite alloys are shakudo and shi-
buichi The charming metal used by
the japanese artificers in their finest

business associates miss the quiet,
gentle and kind man whom we were
wont to see and greet each day. He
has gone out from the cares burdens
and trials of this life.
He has pierced the gloom, passed
within the vail, penetrated the mys-
terry, and let us hope found rest.
His funeral service was conducted
by the Pastor of the NJ. f. Church and
the large concourse of people who at
tended testified by their presence and
demeanor to his general popularity.

Inferior Goods.

The only safe way for purchasers is to insist on having the genuine article, and not allow themselves to be swindled by having plasters said to be 'just as good, {" or containing superior ingredients" i'm posed upon them. These are only tricks to sell inferior goods that no more compare with Allcoek's Porous Plssters than copper does with gold. One trial of Alloock's Porous Plasters will convince the most skeptical of their merits.
 The eminent Henry A. Mott, jr., Ph. D. F. c. s., late government chemist, eer- tiles:
 "My investigation of Allcock's Porous Plaster shows 1t to contain valuable and essential ingredients not found in any other plaster, and I find 1t superior to and more efficient than other plaster"

The stock Market Characterized by
 Irregularity-New England's Weak
 ness-Western UnIon's Strength-
 Stocks Generally Lower-Railroa
 Bonds Active and Firmer. NEW YORK, Jan 1e. The stock market day showed considerable irreguarity, though the general list as e rule was heavy until the last hour, the opening ad- vances alone preventing several material de- clnes. There was rather more activity and more pressure of long stocks, especially among the grangers. Reading, New England and Hook ing Coal were weak, while some stocks, particu- larly the industrials, Western Union and Rich mond and West Point, continued strong on in side buying. The market was dominated princi- pally by the assur ance that possibly S4,C0o 900 gold would leave the country Saturday. This influence, however, was combatted by unusual ease in money. The special features were the decided weakness in New England and the strength of Western Union and Richmond and West Point. New England was sold heavily and the source of the selling was a mystery 10 the street. Rumors were circulated that the Phila- delpha syndicate was cisposing of its stock and also that President Parsons had resigned, the in- ference from each being that long stocks were come upon the market. The prices declined steadily until the last hour, dropping from to1S
 
 closing the day with a net loss of 2N. Manhat- tan yielded 11z per cen t. and Hocking Coal and Iron 1I6, but neither attracted much attention. Industrials all closed materially higher. Consol- dated Gas scored a net advance of 2A. Western Union crossed par and closed at it's highest figure with gain of 19s, being now higher than it has been in a long while. Richmond and West Point closed with a gain of B. The grangers were dropping, the coalers were heavy, especially Reading and Lackawan na. The general list dropped steadily after a strong opening, until the last hour, when the shorts covered exten- sively but the final changes, while small, show a majority of losses.
 Railroad bonds aside from strength in Rich mond and West Point 1ves, showed few special features. The market closed active and firm r, generally at slight fractions below the opening figures.
