BIOGRAPHICAL.

Clarence T. Ward was born in
Bonneville, New York Sept. Is, 1866,
and was consequently nearly thirty
eight years of age at the time of his
death. His father, William G.. Ward,
was civil engineer of some promin-
ence, and his mother, Mrs. Anna Dodd
Ward, was a direct descendant of
family that could easily trace it's an
cestry back to the Puritan fathers.
Young Wards father and mother came
west when he was but a year old, set
thing in Madison, Wis, then practical
~ a frontier town. Here seven years
of happy boyhood days were spent,af-
ter which his father, filled with en-
thusiasm for venture in the then Min
nesota wilderness, moved his family
to Waseca, from which point the elder
Ward afterwards directed the survey
of the w. & St. Peter railroad. Clar..
ence went to the Waseca public schools
for year or more, after which he was
sent to Shattuck, at Faribauit. Five
years of diligent study placed him at
the head of his class, and at the age
of eighteen he commenced successful
struggle for honors at the State Uni
versity. He spent three years at
general course, and then commenced
the study of law in the office of Gilman,
Clough & Lane, of which C.M. Gill
man and Vice President Clough, of
the Great Northern road, were mem
bers. ae spent yeer there, after
which he was admitted to practice be-
fore all the courts of the State. Short
ly afterwards. or on Dec. 2lst, 1876,
he was married to Miss Anna Baldwin,
eldest daughter of Hon. H. D. Bald
win, of this city, than whom more
devoted wife could not have been
found. Returning to St. Paul he was
placed on salary in the Office of Davis,
O'Brien & Wilson, of which U. S. Sen
ator OK. Davis and Hon. CD. O'Brien
were members, and remained there
two years. He then formed law
partnership with E. A. Hendrickson,
his brother-in-law, which lasted until
the fall of 1882, Clarence moving his
family to Redwood and forming law
partnership with Hon. III. D. Baldwin,
under the firm name of Baldwin &
Ward. In July 1883, Mr.. Ward re-
organized. the Redwood County Bank,
founded by Geo. w. Braley, and was
its cashier for several years. He was
Recorder of the village and President
of the village council for two consecu
tive years. In 1886 he was the Re-
publican and young mems candidate
for State Senator from this ninth dis
trict, but owing to the rank treachery
of one or more Doodle statesmen" in
New Ulm, he was defeated. Defeat
and treachery bore down hard upon
his young, gentle and ambitious soul,
and Clarence Ward was meyer himself

though the only salvation for the
country from n great crash is the re-

The guilty were pressed too hard.
They began to confess, and their con-

Where Authorities Differed.
Harper's Young People.

The Reading class was standing in 0
stiff row upon the the floor of an In
diana school-house, and bright little
fellow was. dra Wing paragraph about
q Roman massacre.
The president of the school board
was present on his regular tour of in.
spection, and he pompously requested
that the boy Tread that verse again."
The "verse" was read again.
"Ah! hm p' said the great man, in
loud voice. "Why do you pronounce
that word massa-ker?"
The boy was silent,
at should be pronounced massa.kre, "
continued the great man, with a pat
ronizing smile.
The boy remained quiet, but the
teacher finally spoke
"Pardon me, sir, but the fault is
mine if the word was mispronounced.
1 have taught the class to pronounce it
massa-ker.' "
"But why ?" insisted the great man,
as look of surprise was followed by a
look of pain upon his benign features.
II believe that Webster favors that
pronunciation, said the teacher meek
ly. 49,,
"Impossible," said the great man.
The dictionary was brought, and the
president of the school board turned
over its leaves until he found the word.
There was breathless silence as he
looked up. -,
II am astonished, madam" he said
at last, "that Daniel Webster should
have made such mistake as that!

The Malady Of The Age.

4 writer in the Fortnightry Review
affirms that 1.-The great malady of the
aye is the absolute inability to support
solitude or to endure silence" This is
said of what is called "society" in the
great cities of Europe; in which "life
is lived in throng, in a rush, in q
gallop," and where, a. is alleged, 1.-THE
wit as we'll as the 'ool flies from his
own company" There is some exag-
geration in tn 81. Sta'cments, albeit
there is far more truth than falsehood
in them. But what concerns us Is,
that there is growing passion for
seeking happiness outside Of the home
in American "society," an increasing
lack of resources and occupations,
independent of persons and occupa-
tions outside of the household. Thus,
club life is preferred by many hus-
bands and sons to the quiet life at the
home fireside; and mothers and
daughters pine to become "glitterlng
brides of society,"" and to be contln-
ually visiting or receiving irlends.
This restless spirit is unfavoraole 10
the growth of exalted character, 10
intellectual culture, to the happiness
of family life, to contentmeht WIN
ones social condition, and especiall y
to religious self-cultpre. Its food is
empty frivolity, idle gossip, and pro-
fitless amusements. Its effects are
superficiality of mind, fickleness of
affection, disgust of what is attainable,
and such dissatisfaction with self az to
make it self-torture to be alone. With
this restless spirit this malady Of
the age" no aspirant after genuine
manhood, no true woman, no disciple
of the holy CHRIST, can be in SYM
pathy, but should declare open,
perpetual war against it by words ana
acts. TO such the silent closet should
be sacred spot, loved as the place,
not of inane ennui, but of secret COM
munion with the Highest, of fellow
ship with all that is lofty in thought
of spiritual meditation, and OF victor
ious battle against every ignoble sentl-
ment yet struggling for mastery in the
heart.

Jealousy.

A young man of my acquaintance
has owned for some years q dog who
has been his constant companion.
Recently the young man has married,
and has moved with his bride and dog
into house OIL the opposite side of
the street from his fathers house, his
former home. The dog has been evil

tention formerly his are given to the
young wife. In many ways he has
shown >his unhappiness, in spite OF
the fact. that his master has tried TO
reconcile him, and the young bride to
win him. The other day. when his
master>came:: home, his wife sat on his
knee while Jack was lying by the fire.
He rose from his place, came over to
the couple. and expressed his disap-
proval. "Why, jack" said his mas.
ter, "this is all right; she's a good
GIRL" and as he spoke he patted her
arm. Jack looked up at him, turned
away. and left the room. In a mo-
ment they heard noise, and going
into the hall found jack dragging his
bed down stairs. When he reached
the front door he whined to be let out,
and when the door was opened he
dragged his bed down the steps, across
the street to his old home, where he
scratched for admittance. Since then
he has never been back to his n aster

the Rule the Other Way.

A Chinaman, says the Christian Ad-
vocate, applied for the position of cook
in family in one of our Western
cities. The lady of the house and
most of the family were members of a
fashionable church, and they were de-
termined to look we'll after the char
acter of the servants. So, when John
Cinnamon appeared at the door he was
asked: "Do you drink whiskey"'
No" said he. II Clistian man." "Dn
you play cards ?" mo, 1 Clislian man.
He was employed and COVE great sat
isfactiop. He did his work well, was
honest, upright, correct and respectful.
After some weeks the lady gave q "pro-
gressive euchre" party and had wines
at the table. John Chinnaman was
called upon to serve the party, and
did so with grace and acceptability.
But next morning he waited on the
lady and said he wished TO quit work !!
"Why, what is the matter? ?" she in
ouired. John answered: II Clistian

A New Departure.

The new mill which Mr.. Holland
had built was a fine affair, but there
was one room which caused a good
of surprise among the men engaged IN
the work of building. The master
builder shook his head over the plans
for this room and declared it was "a
queer bit of fancy work to hitch on to
a cotton factory"
Itwas to an inspection of this debatable
ground that Mr.. Holland invited Miss
Petra Wilder one summer day. The
mysterious apartment proved to be
only pleasant airy room, containing
some comfortable chairs, a few small
light tables, and row of book shelves.
ga dining-room, resting room,
or whatever you choose to call it, for
the use of the women and girls who
bring their dinners with thenl," Mr..
Holland explained. 1T seems to me
that dinner away from the dust and
the sight of machinery must at least
be more enjoyable, to say nothing OF a
few conveniences in the way of set
ting a table or making cup of coffee
on that range in the adjoining room.
And for the shelves we must have
good books and periodicals weekly
papers. and some of our best mag
azines."
"Yo do not know" inteposed Petra,
with flushed cheeks and kindling eyes,
chow much room like this will do in
uplifting the life of some of the girls.
1t is far more than a mere provision
for physical comfort. What pleas
ure it must be to use money as you are
using it p' she said, as they turned
homeward. "Fwonder why more peo-
pie do not think of such things !-
