DEATH OF WILL TEACHER.

After months of patient suffering
and confinement, j. Will Meagher,
son Of Mr.. and Mrs. John f. Meagher,
passed away at l:30 o'clock Tuesday.
He has been sick for more
than a year past. and fell victim to
that dread slayer, consumption. He
was stricken with that disease while
in college at Harvard and
was removed to his home in this city
as soon as the weather would permit
last summer, in the hope that the
bracing air of Minnesota would cure
his trouble, but it was then too late.
He has sunk more rapidly during the
past few weeks and few days ago
suffered a severe hemorrhage. Since
then he has been very weak, and the
expected end came today.
Will was twenty-five years of age
and was model young man, bright,
industrious and giving great promise
of future usefulness. He graduated
from the Normal school with high
honor, being considered one Of the
best students in his class. At Harvard
town the reports of his progress were
no less excellent and he was then well
up toward the head. He was of APP
parently strong physique and quite
robust. With pleasant, cheerful
word for everyone, he was the favor
ite of his large circle of friends and
the pride and hope Of the devoted
family circle. 1t seems doubly sad
that he should be stricken down just
as his manly qualities were commenc-
ing to unfold themselves into such
rich blossoms of promise. The affiict-
ed family has the sincere sympathy of
the community ia their sorrow, and
the earnest wish that the remaining
children may be long spared.

Rheaumtism Quickly Cured,

Three days is a very short time in
which to cure a bad case of rheuma-
tism; but it can be done, if the proper
treatment is adopted, as will be seen

afflicted with rheumatism in hips and
legs, when l bought bottle OF Chem

DISSATISFIED WITH HIS GUARDIAN

Judge Torrey's time was taken up
Tuesday in hearing of a matter per-
tanning to the guardianship of Carl
Molchow. July 10th, 1889, August
Molchow was appointed guardian of
Carl Molchow for the reason that the
latter was drinking excessively and
was spending and wasting his estate.
Carl MOlchoW now, through his attor-
ney, w. \. Plymat, asks that he be
restored to capacity or that some
other guardian be appointed. The
ground for this move is that no notice
of hearing in the matter of the ap-
pointment OF guardian was served
on him, that he has been reformed
for year past, and that his guardian
is not faithfully discharging his
duties. A. r. Pau appeared fol
August MOlchoW.

At Home i'm Heaven.

(In memory of Miss Flora E. Haggarda
l think of friends on earth's cold breast
They re sad today;
grieved tn leave them, but God knew best,
And called me away,
At Jesus feet sweet rest found,
He set me free;
And now I'm happy an angel crowned
For all eternity.
Oh. dear to my heart are the friends up here;
Don't think that I'm alone;
Nor farewell word, nor parting tear,
Darkens this bright home
Up here the birds are sweetly singing;
A CHEEKY, cloudless sky;
And angel voices onward ringing
In songs that never die.
Oh could tell you of these wild flowers
These fresh green fields abroad;
How Sweetly pass the endless hours,
At home with God.
l saw the gates of pearl, so fair,
When come through.
burst of welcome hailed me there,
From friends / knew.
Bright, beautiful heaven-no setting sun.
Nor weary nights of pain;
All Joy is granted to those who come
In his bright name.
Now loved ones Weep for me no more,
But simply Coos will obey:
And soon We'll meet on this bright shore
One happy, endless day.
