The following lines are dedicated tC
the bereaved relatives and friends
with the heartfelt sympathy of g
friend:
After the struggle of weary years,
After life's battle, so nobly fought
After a lifetime of hopes and fears,
Would you envy her rest for which she sought
Was not your every wish her pleasure?
Did she not always rule with love?
Would you deny her the priceless treasure?
Could you refuse her her crown above?
Her mission was ended, the fight was won;
The weary soul has gone to rest.
Oh weep with joy, Thy VIII Be Done,''
Your loved one is numbered with the blest.
And she so kind and true from BIRTH
Remember when to despair you're driven,
The dearest friend you had on earth
Will not forget you now in heaven.
Weep not for the form departed;
Only gone to pave the way.
Be more generous -noble-hearted,
Be more patient-wait and pray.
All those feelings of anguish. smother,
This cloud will pass, from grief arise,
Obey her words, Help one another"
And she will bless you from the skies.

Y. NJ. G. A. RALLY.
Interesting Services at MankatO
Theatre Sunday Evening.

The following report of the Y. M. G.
A. services was unavoidably crowded
out of last evenings issue:
The annual rally of the Y. M. G. A.
was held Sunday evening at the Man
kato theatre. The large room was
filled to it's full capacity, and the in
terest throughout was very good. The
music was furnihed by male quar-
tette, consisting of the Davies Bros,
Luther Burgess and John Currier,
and also by the Congregational choir,
consisting of Mr.. Davies, Miss Griffin,
M SIS Ellis and Mr.. Hughes. Ali the
selections were good and well render
ed.
DR.. j. w. Andrews presided with
his accustomed ease. The pastors of
the several churches of the city were
on the platform and took part in the
exercises. Rev. Lee W. Beattie read
the Scripture lesson, and Rev. E. M.
Washburn led in prayer.
Rev. e. +. SergiSson, of the Deci-
Piles church gave the first address on
"The Scope of Association Work."
He gave a resume of the history of the
movement, showing a close knowl
edge of the facts and outlined the
lines ofuwork which should be taken
up Mr.. Sergisson has fine voice, and
impressive presence and succeeds in
imparting to the congregation some
of his own enthusiasm.
Rev. J. E. Stout, of the M. E.
church, spoke on "Why Should There
be Special Work for Young Men and
Boys?" Mr.. Stout stated by way of
introduction, that the perpetuity of
the state, the social order, and the
home, depended on the salvation of
young men and boys, and on this ac-
count we should interest ourselves in
their welfare. A second reason was
found in the peculiar temptations
that came to these classes. These
come to them in three ways. Through
our national worship of success, which
brings about the disintegratiOn of the
home, sends young men to the cities
to seek their fortunes, isolates them
in lonely rooms and SO opens them to
the temptations of the city; through
our common municipal misrule, by
which the will of the majority is
thwarted in the interest of vicious
minority, making void the regulations
society has tried to throw around vice;
and through our national saloon, the
pet of politicians, the meeting place
of vicious elements, the controller of
ward politics, and the corruption of
character, which thrives on the
young men and boys.
These unique temptations demand
special work. There should be fur
nished them that the Y. M. G. A.
does furnish.
The essential elements of aSSOcia-
tion work was presented by Rev. III.
+. Waring, of the Baptist church. He
said the symbol of the Y. M. G. A. is
a triangle and on the three sides were
written the three things the associa-
tion tried to do. They worked for the
spirit, the mind and the body. He
laid great stress on what is being done
for physical culture, while in no way
minifying what was being done in
other lines. and gave well deserved
compliment to the secretary, Mr..
Martin, who is the right man in the
right place. Mr.. Warnings speech
was most excellent and well delivered
and made him many friends.

nett, are campod on a bluff In the eastern
part Of the city, and their presence seems
to be having "A salutary effect on the tur'
bulent striking miners.
There was another serious break when
a number of miners went to the La Sale
carbon shaft, mobbed the engineer and
made him leave the engine room, threaten
ing him with assault II he returned. This
was before the arrival Of the militia.
The miners held a meeting in Turner
hall, and speeches were made by Adjutant
General Orendorf, Mayor Matthiessen and
Hon. David Ross, who counseled the men
20 be calm and orderly. There was after.
ward closed meeting, at which only
miners were present The speeches and
actions were then Of very vicious and in
condiary character, and it looked for some
time as If there might be another riot, but
finally the cooler heads persuaded them t.
be quiet.
Tho thing that is now greatly irrl-
tating the strikers is the detention Of two
Of Thursday evenings rioters in the Otta-
wa jail, and If the men are not given a
speedy trial there viii be serious trouble.
A fracas occurred in the northern part of
the city last night when number Of strik-
ers severely beat and kicked a Polish miner
named Blrkowski, whom they met. The
man is very seriously injured and is likely
to die.
The only trouble at the military camp
so far was a slight collision between the
mob and piclSets. Tho mob was closing
around tho soldiers and It was necessary
TO drive them back at the point Of the bay
onct. One man named Meisenbach became
very abusive and received prod with a
bayonot being subsequently taken to the
guardhousc The attitude Of many of the
more unruly strikers is very threatening,
and trouble may be looked for any time.
