GRANDPA'S ASLEEP.

Grandpa's asleepl Don't you see him there
With the cane across mis- lap,
Dreaming away Ia the old armchair,
Taking his MONDAY nap?
Do not disturb. Just let him sleep
Grandpa is getting old,
And the wonderful stories of little "Bo-Peep''
Have nearly all been told.
Grandpa's asieepl wonder If he
Is dreaming of long ago,
And the smiling faces he loved to see
Of the ones he used to know?
Draw down the blindsl The golden sun
Shines on his long thin hair
And the kindly eyes, though long since gone,
The youth that sparkled there.
Grandpa's asleep Don't you see the smile
That marks the well-known face,
And the head that's bowed forever till
1t glows with hallowed grace,
In realm where there is no dream
OF fairer forms or sphere,
Or a kinder voice, more sacred theme,
Than his memory here?
Grandpa's asleep! And soon beneath
The sod he must be laid.
The winds may toss the withered leaf
And whisper through the shade.
But the hallowed charm of little "Bo-Peep,"
The Jingle of little "Boy Blue"
VIII live as he told them ever as sweet
As now to me and you.

IT Is ALL RIGHT NOW
MiSSOula Will Have the University
Opened in the Fall.
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
The South Side School Building
VIII at Once Be- Made Ready
for the UniVersity-What
MissOuIa Men Think.

MIssoULA, Jan. 19.-There seems to be
no bar to the successful opening of the
state university in this city next Septem-
Der. The almost unanimous vote of the
people of this school district in favor of
the special tax of 50, 600 for the prepara-
ton of quarters for the university has
been accepted as evidence that the people
here are approciative of the honor which
lies in the possession Of this school and
the state board of education has pro-
nounced the South Side school building to
be satisfactory as quarters for the uni
versity until n permanent building Is
erected. With this assurance it is ex-
pccted that the school trustees will at once
proceed with tho completion of the build
ing, SO that it will be in readiness for the
opening of the institution in the fall.
The limited number of Missoula people
who sought to mlsconstrue the STAN
nARD's efforts to arouse the people here to
some effort i'm the direction of providing
for the university have seen tho error of
their way and the true motive of this
paper is now recognized. Ii was tho ef-
for S of the STANDARDS fricndes that Sc
cured the establishment of the university
in Missoula and IT was but natural that
this paper should have had an interest in
inducing the citizens of Missoula TO take
some action in the matter. This fact has
always been recognized toy ali save few,
who did not want to see ii in this light.
But it looks like plain sailing for the
university now and all that remains to
make the school a successful one is the
appointment of competent faculty. 1t
is the hope of all friends of the school in
this city that men will be selected of
broad scholarship and wide experience.
In such hands, there can be no doubt as
to the future of the school. But If the
choice of professors is made without due
regard to the needs of the school, regard
less of local influences, there may be mis-
takes made which will prove fatal to tho
future of the institution OF which Mis-
soula expects so much. a STANDARD re-
porter recently interviewed a number of
business and professional men of the city
and he found their sentiment unanimous
in favor of starting out with q policy
which shall make of the university n
school whose merit will be recognized
throughout the state. The university
should have more than a local influence
and to bring this about, caution is neces.
sary at the on set.
Now that Missoula is awake to the i'm
portance of the school, there should be no
abatement in the efforts of her citizens to
make it an institution which will COM
mand respect everywhere. The active in
terest which has been taken in the matter
during the past few weeks should be con-
tinued, that its sincerity may not be
doubted. If this is done, the university
will he what every friend of education de-
sires 1t to be, great state school.

Mrs. Henry Ward Bcecher, the widow
of the distinguished preacher and pastor
of Plymouth church, received many
pleasant visits from the ladies of that
parish on New Years day at her home in
the Plymouth flats, III Orange street, near
Henry, Brooklyn.
TWAS a day of happy memories to Mrs.
Bcecher, as it was the 65,h anniversary of
the day upon which she became engaged
to Mr.. Beccher, says the New York Herald.
The Saturday thereafter Mr.. Beecher rode
over TO the house of his intended wfo
and asked the consent OF her parents. Her
mother. Mrs. Beecher mentioned in writ
ing OF tins few years ago, was grieved,
but her father was angry.
"Why, you are a couple of babies" he
said. You don't know your own minds
yet, aud Will not for some years to come"
But finally Mr.. Beecher overcame all
opposition. "Surely, the future man"
wrote Mrs. Beecher, "stood reflected in
the boy of L." Thor engagement was
tor seven years. The engagement ring

ter of a century, until it was broken and
could no longer he repaired. Though il
cost only 50 cents it rests close to
Mrs. Beecher's heart to-day. She ques-
tons il there is any ring on earth so pre-
cIous.
Mrs. Beccher, who was the daughter of
Dr. ARENAS Bollard of West Sutton,
Mass, was Miss Eunlce White Bollard
" hen she won the heart and lifelong
devotion of Mr.. Beecher. who was then
an Amherst student. She became the
mother of 10 children, four of whom arc
