ONE HEART.
sometimes linser DER the list

I sometimes linger DER the list
OF friends lost IN other days.
And still the question with me stays
I doubt IL others think the same,
Or even wish 60 share my thought
That men were foolish who have sought
To leave n never dying name
When thou hast run thine earthly race,
Thou wilt not "lcave "a world In tears.
Nor will men come in after years
To view thine earthly resting place
Thy poor remains will rest as well.
Thy spirit will be no less free.
Although il is not thine TO be
A Milton or Raphael.
Fret not myself. but heaven thank
IL all the good that thou canst do
May be so dono that only few
Need ever know thy place is blank.
Be thankful II but one true heart
Shall feel for thee the moments pain
Ere 10 can say, "We meet again
or knowing what IL IL to part.
One loving heart thou mayest crave,
Lest all thou caredst for on earth
Should seem TO have no lasting worth
And end forever In the gray
One faithful heart beneath the sky,
In which to leave seed Of love.
To blossom in world above
And bear a fruit which shall not die.

They Are Dissatisfied
With the Treat
ment.
Accorded to "Sonny" Dryer
At the Ishpeming wrestling Tourna-
ment-Releir for the Ontonagon
sufrerers-Twin City Notes.

Considerable dissatisfaction is felt by
the friends OF Sonny" Dwyer at the
treatment he received at the hands of the
stieklers and judges at the IshDeming
tournament. The opinion is practically
unanimous that there was no show for
Sonny to win first money unless he should
bury every man he was pitted against
clear out OF sight in the sawdust. In fact
1t was manifest from the start that il was
anything to beat him. Eye witnesses OF
the affair say he threw every man he went
against, including Rowett, as fairly as
any man was ever thrown, notwithstand-
ing the fact that Rowett, who was con-
sidered the best Cornish wrestler of the
sixty-odd entered, was reserved to the
last to go against Dwyer, after Dryer
had done more hard work than all the
rest combined. Sonny never before en-
tered Cornish wrestling match, but he
showed that he knew trick or two, and
it is to be hoped he will have another 90
with some OF those fellows when real
merit will cut more ice than it did at Ish-
peming. Sonny has issued the following
challenge in letter to the Mining Jour-
mall
81 will wrestle any man in the country at
catch as-catch-can for any amount from
$50 up, on September 5, 1896, at Ish-
peming, Mich. NJ. j. DIVER"

Indescribable were tie feelings that
came over the minds and hearts OF the
friends of this noble woman when they
we're TOLD that she was dead.
In the death o. Miss Lilly Nesbit
Elrtner, Shreveport has lost one of its
brightest Jewels, lovely, tender
hearted, noble woman, whose patient
and untiring presence was joy to
hundreds of people in her wide circle
of social and business friends, Her
services as q member OF commercial
lite, were Invaluable and she lifted the
high plane-the working woman, by
being such an honorable, cultured and
truly refined woman. Her dignity,
made by her example, and she opened
the way to many women in our city
Tor obtaining an Independent livell-
hood.
The record of her daily life, which
was unselish, self-sacrifcing and spot
less, is living monument to her be-
loved memory. She died in the belief
| that had d recsed her Christian life
ana made her the hand-maideu of God
the comforter OF man and the patient
follower OF the Lord. Not one in all
our CITY. who does dot protfer TO those
nearest and dearest to her, their deep
est and trnest sympathy in the loss OF
one so loved and admired.
