Temnerance services we're held il

Temperance services were held in
the Nj. E. church l riday evening, the
immense audience being addressed by
several noted speakers. The brothers
were urged to keep up the war, and,
as one speaker said, :'gain prohibition
or bust" The fellows who talk pro-
hibition but vote as their party dictates
were scored numerically and placed
in the same boat with the drinkers
and liquor sellers. Morg. evidently
did not like the tone of the remarks,
as he left before the services were over.
He probably thought he was one of
the fellows who "went ballooning."

Thomas Cross ut Rest.

DIED-At his home in Liberty Town
ship, on Thursday, March 10, 1893,
at 1890 p. M, THOMAS Cross, aged
seventy-four years and eight months.
Funeral services were held at the
residence, FIVE miles southwest of Great
Bend, at 10 a. m, Saturday, March
18th, and were attended by large
concourse of friends and relatives.
Mr.. Cross was one of the oldest settlers
of the county, we'll liked and greatly
respected by all who knew him. His
life was one of toll ami industry. and
he was a man who attended carefully
and zealously to his own affairs, do
ing unto others as he wish ed to he done
by, and believing that he lives best
who lives for others good. He had
been confined to his bed for a number
of months and had not enjoyed good
health for number of years past.
The large attendance at his funeral
indicated the sympathy Of his friends
and neighbors.
His loving face no more we'll see;
His tender voice is hushed in death,
Kind deeds to men will ever be
As often sung with bated breath,
As when we battle with sorrows tears
Those folded hands across his breast,
And shroud his form, great in years,
And gently say he is sat rest.''

ABSOLUTELY PURE
The Oldest Trees.

The Soma cypress of Lombsrdy is,
believe, the oldest tree of which there
is any authentic record. 1t is known
to have been in existence in AZ b. @.
There are, however, many trees for
which vastly greater antiquity is
claimed. Tho Senegal baobabs-some
of them are said to be 5000 years old
The DO tree of Anuradhapura, in
Ceylon, is perhaps the oldest specimen
of another very longliyed species; it
is held sacred upon the ground that
it sprang from branch of the iden-
tical tree under which Buddha reclined
for seven wears while undergoing .iis
apotheosis. This oak is well known
to be long liver, and there are speci-
mems still standing in Palestine, OF
which the tradition goes that they
grew out of Gains staff. The haw-
thorn, again, sometimes lives to be
very old; there is said to be one in
side Cawdor Castle of an "immemorial
age"
The cedars of Lebanon may also be
mentioned, and there are, according
to Dean Stanley. still eight of the
olives of Gethsemane standing, "whose
gnarled trunks and scanty foliage will
always be regarded rs the most affect
