LELAND STANFORD, whose body
will soon be placed in the magnif-
cent mausoleum which he erected
some years ago, in a sarcophagus
of purest marble was a type of the
American rich man. He was born
poor, but with profound sense Of
the value and power Of money.
Stories are told Of his accumula-
tive shrewdness when a mere child,
but his plans and dreams Of fortune
seemed unsubstantial enough when
at % years of age he contemplated
the ashes of his law office and
library at the little town Of Port
Washington, Wis. That was, as It
has been to many men Of his
character, the clark hour" which
precedes the day. The catastrophe
sent him to California, where he
went to mining gold, and he coli
tinued to find gold mt way or
another to the end of his days. All
he needed was the field, and then
he had the indomitable courage the
tireless energy, the iron nerve, the
foresight (unintelligible to those
who have it not that belong to the.
husbandman who harvests gold.
He virtually built the Central
Pacific railroad and accumulated
millions from every enterprise he
undertook. AS he had made money
in great sums SO he spent it.
Finally he endowed a great school
following his usual rule, Never
mind the expense" He provided
for everything in connection with
the school, Just as he did for his
stables and everything that was his
even the tomb in which his son and
himself were to be laid. His name
will be preserved longest in that Of
the university to which youth will
resort to be taught by the example
of the sages of all time that the first
ambition of the founder was among
the least worthy Of human incen~
tives.

Ii all the people who suffer with Rheu-
matism had been at the Turner Opera
House last Sunday night and seen the
miraculous cure made on Mr.. Geo. Sea
bert, by the kickapoo Indians, they would
have thanked God. For over four years
Mr.. Seabert has not been able 20 bend his
knee Joint or walk without clutches. HIS
case was considered hopeless one by
many who know HIM. One week ago he
went to see the Kickapoo Indians and
after using their medicine few days he
began to improve and last Sunday night
DR.. Kit took him on the stage and before
fully 1000 people, threw his crutches
away and after one application OF this In
dian medicine Mr.. Seabert walked off the
stage and down in the audience. People
could hardly believe their own eye sight,
for when called out of the audience Mr..
Seabert could hardly get on the stage
even with the use of his clutches.
Mr.. Seabert has lived in this county
~ years and Is we'll known to most old
settlers and is at present living at q
Rapids road, The Indians must have a
wonderful remedy, they do not refer us
to cures made IN other towns, but take
our own well known citizens and cure
them. The Indians remain at Turner
Hall two weeks longer, giving free shows
every night.
