DEATH OF WALTER 4. eRlssERy FATHER.
lie PASSES Away Crowned with
nonors civil and MiiItary.


Eastern exchanges contain extended
accounts OF the death of Col. Warren
Granger, Of ST. Paul, father Of Walter N.
Granger, who died at Buffalo, N. Y,
September 10, OF locomoier ataxia. The
deceased was born in Buffalo in 1913. He
was Of the Oldest OF the Buffalo families,
his grandfather having been the first set
tier on the present site OF that city.
When the war broke out Mr.. Granger
was boy of IS. but he enlisted with the
Tooth New York volunteers. the Buffalo
board OF trade regiment. He left Buffalo
as a lieutenant, but returned after the
war as colonel - years old, having been
promoted for various acts OF bravery.
Ills war career was an eventful one. He
was in many battles, was several times
wounded, and was for some time q pris-
oner. He figured ia the seven DAYS fight
at Fair Oaks and in the charge at Fort
Wagner, $. c., where he was wounded
by a shell and left on the field for dead.
subsequently he was removed to hos
pital, recovered sufficiently TO rejoin his
regiment, and was captured before Rich
mond, serving several mouths in Ander-
sonville and Libby prisons. From both
of these he escaped but was recaptured.
Finally he was exchanged, and near the
close OF the war marched at the head OF
his regiment into Richmond. 1t ia be-
lieved that the wound received at Fort
Wagner was the direct cause of Col. Gran
gers death. He never fully recovered
from the effects of it, and has been an in
valid for several years. The wound he
received was on the shoulder from flying
pieces of shell, and Col. Granger often
stated it as his belief that some small
portion OF the shell was still resting near
the spine and causing him all his trouble.
After the war Col. Granger left Buffalo
and went to St. Paul, where he engaged
in the wholesale spice business. He
took great interest in athletics, especially
in rowing, and was noted for courteous
hearing and largeness of heart. Person
ally he is said, by those who were &C.
quainted with him, to have been one Of
the most companionable and genial Of
men, and his loss is severely felt where
he was best known.

Opening Day OF AhsanuM Academ

Opening Day OF Ahtanum Academy.
The opening exercises of the third
school year at the Ahtsnum academy
took place on Tuesday, September Is,
with a fair number OF students and visit
ors present. Prof. Hull, the principal,
presided, and after a short devotional ser
vice made few remarks fitting the occa.
sion. Revs. Wise and Cheadle also re-
sponded with short impromptu speeches
setting forth the benefits OF a higher edu-
cation and encouraging the students in
their endeavors to extend the horizon OF
their knowledge. Although the attend
ance is small at the beginning because
many OF the prospective students are
still retained in the hop yards, the out
lCok for the ensuing school year is better
than either of the previous years, and it
is to be hoped that the expectations OF
the friends of the institution will be more
than realized.
Among the visitors present were: Rev.
Wise, OF Wheaton, III. Rev. Cheadle,
Mr.. and Mrs. Woodcock, Mesdames Wv
ian, Benson, Williams, Cochrane, Wins
low; Misses May and Ollie Crosno and
Miss Weikel.
