IN NIEMORIAM
Written by Request OF the Deceased While
in Vigorous Health

Living in this great world Of ours,
some for years, others only for a short
time, are men and women whose very
presence brighten and gladden. the lives
of those around them; men and women
who scatter flowers all along the thorny
paths of life: who bring joy and SUM-
shine to weary hearts; who inspire
men with nobler, grander thoughts. and
incite them TO the accomplishment of
great and noble deeds. Such a life was
that of Helen d. Kindred, whose gen
tie spirit took its flight August IS. 1895.
Quiet and unobtrusive in her demean-
or, yet strong in her conviction Of right
or wrong, she impressed all whom she
came in contact with her noble charac-
ter and superior womanhood. Although
remaining with us but twenty-one short
summers, her influence for good among
her many friends will remain green in
memory's portals, when the names or
many others have been forgotten. She
early formed the habit. which was ever
a safeguard around her life, OF taking
all her little cares and troubles to her
mother for guidance and counsel.
Mother, sister, your darling Is not lost
10 you forever. Nature teaches us that
all things die but to live again. She
will meet you again on the shores of
eternity, with the same loving hand
pressure, the same radiant smile SO
characteristic with her in life. Your
loss is her gain" for "God shall wipe
away all tears from their eyes, and
there shall be no more death, neither
sorrow nor crying, neither shall there
be any more pain a. A. r.

Meeusns Was the Most Successful on
Record

The Sedgwick County Normal School
finished its la1bOrs yesterday and it was
undoubtedly The best normal ever held
in Sedgwick county. The teachers of
the county had recreation and eduoa-
ton combined and hence an advantag-
eOuS time.
There was something in this normal
school different form AL others and
thai something was refreshing. 1t was
a total absence of the stereotyped old
attempt to declare its faith in prohibi-
ton. This time It made no utterance
either way and ignored the subject al
together.
The great success of the normal IS
largely due TO the painstaking work
OF County superintendent Charles J.
Mackey- Mr. Mackey has done a grand
work which easily demonstrates the i'm
portance of retaining him at the head
OF the educational bureau of the county.
If there was one person in the normal
school who did not realize the import
ance of the reelection Of Mr. Macl<ey a
reporter for the Eagle could not nd
him. They all knew that the office
of right ought TO be filed by man
who is competent and not by one who
has political pub.
The following resolutions were passed
Whereas, the Sedgwick County Nor
nal institute for the year 1896 has been
highly satisfactory to those in attend
ance; and
Whereas the members Of this institute
fedl that they have received valuable
instruction in both subject and method;
therefore be ii
Resolved, That we, the teachers Of
Sedgwick county, Kansas, do heartily
commend our county superintendent for
his selection Of able instructors and for
his earnest work in behalf of the teach
ers and the schools of this county; be

10 each of the instructors for his patient

DEATH OF HENRY SHIELDS
He Passes Awav After Few Days Illness
With Appendicitis

At 1 o'clock yesterday morning Henry
the second son of Captain John H.
Shields, died at the residence Of his par
ents at the corner of South Water and
Orn1e street. His illness was but OF
very brief duration and was caused by
appendicitis. Everything that the best
Physicians in Wichita could do 10 save
his life vas done but in vain. The
merciless grim reaper was there ana
Henry obeyed his summons. He had
just passed his fteenth year and was
one of the brightest boys in the city,
of his age. He was not only bright but
ne was dutiful to his parents and among
his chums and companions he was very
popular In fact he was general
favorite among all the people in that
part of the city.
There was sublime grandeur in Hen

evitable forty-eight hours before the
spirit took it's flight and although but
a mere boy he accepted his fate with
resignation that was as inspiring as 1t
was beautiful He commenced reeitinS
those simple but beautiful prayers he
learned at his mothers knee in child
hood and he spoke about going to heaven
with that positive faith typical of one
carefully educated in sound Christian
principles. All the regret he mani
Tested was that the GENTS spirit of the
loving mother who gave him birth could
not accompany him in the glory of their
Lord. He called the father and mother

The poor little fellow is gone and il
far better off than If he had remained
to battle with the sorrows of the world.
He was cut down in the bloom of. inno-
cence and appeared before his God with
out a stain upon mis- soul. This should

atives. They know beyond a doubt
that he is incomparably better off than
they are. but man and woman are
human and an must bow to the human
ity of sorrow and reverence it. No one
who has ever experienced its trials can
criticize the tears shed by father and
mother. sisters and brothers when a
ink in the family chain Is severed;
when the circle about the fireside is
broken; when happy face and famil-
lar voice are missing; when one they
loved is gone forever even though it
be into the joy Of the Lord. Such tears
are sacred. The Eagle and every per-
son connected with it honors the eor-

most sincere and heartfelt sympathy.
