his mental structure. They contain high
minded thought expressed with ease and
true poetic feeling. He had q deep and
sympathetic love for nature, a delicate
fancy and was always alert to the most
sensitive shades Of feeling. In his verse
there Is a fusion of intellectual vigor and
poetic sentiment seldom found among our
latter day poets. Professor Powell al
ways sought the loftiest ideals, the pur-
est emotions and the most irrefragable
truths. both In literature and In life. This
leads me to speak of his position in regard
to matters OF religion which by many
were misunderstood
His attitude toward Christianity was
not one of hostility. but of inquiry. His
aim was to approach truth on the positive
side. He accepted only such facts as were
capa BILE OF verifcation. Doubt with him
was not doubt In any evil sense. but sim
ply The natural movement of the mind to-
ward truth not yet attained. Absolute
uniformity In thinking or believing is i'm
possible as long as human nature remains
what II Is. What the ultimate outcome
may have been In his case Is a matter of
conjecture. Sufficient for US to know that
his conduct of life was regulated by the
highest standard Of Christian morals. He
Is gone and many of us are his debtors.
My personal obligation to MIN can never
be repaid. He occupied large place in
the lives Of his associates. He had the
faculty Of quickening thought and stim-
ulating study which Is the chief essen
tial in the making of a great teacher. Al
though exceedingly modest, he never
dreamt Of boarding his vast intellectual
wealth, or of hiding his talents under
a napkin. He gave freely of all that was
best in him for the advancement of others.
This Is the highest tribute that can be
paid to any man. The sum Of all the vir-
tues Is embodied In the principle of minis
tering to the welfare of Others. This prin-

A NEW GRANT STORY.

For several years there was much
said about a railroad from Galena to
GAINESVILLE. the idea being, when once
there, to arrange with the then Mil
, waukee and Mississippi, now the Chi
cagO Milwaukee and st. Paul. to run a
line to Janesville from Milton Junction.
and thus secure a Milwaukee connec-
tiOn. The line was built from Milton
to GAINESVILLE, but from Galena to James,
vile the road Is still an air castle.
A number of moneyed men of Galena
had been induced to interest themselves
in the project. In 1860 several of these
gentlemen, including the banker, Henry
Corwith. who loaned vast sums of
money to Wisconsin lumbermen from
thirty to forty years ago. being of the
number, drove overland to GAINESVILLE
for a double purpose-to see the char
acter OF the country through which the
proposed road was to run. and to con-
suit with A. Hyatt Smith and other
Janesville men concerning the contem-
plated enterprise. Mr.. Corwith and his
party We're met by Mr.. Smith and sew
eral others. There was carriage ride
In the afternoon. One of the Galena
party had not been provided with a

Yes, he came over with u.s."
We'll, well! I'll sit with the driver
and he can take my place."
"Never mind him. Mr. Smith. Pre-
sumo he does not care to go. He il our
driver"
1t was not exactly a banquet they
had that evening after the GAINESVILLE
people had shown their visitors the
town and told them as much in it's
favor as it would bear. but it was a
spread Of something beyond the aver
age for the little town of two or three
| thousand inhabitants.
Have you registered?" asked the
landlord of a man he saw sitting near
the stove soon after the visitors and
their entertainers had been located in
the dining room.
"No, SIR
Going to stay with us tonight?"
II guess So"
Are you of the Galena party?"
Yes, am the teamster"
The landlord stepped into the dining
room and said: Mr.. Corwith, your

to supper now or waltz"
Someone suggested that he wait.
