Another Flower Pfucked from
Our Midst.

Died, in Mountain Home, Idaho
Jan. Both, 1898, Of gastric fever
Miss Elsie Belle Coon, aged II
years and % days. Miss Elsie was
the youngest daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. J, NJ. Coon of this place, she
was born in Red Bluff, California
having been a resident of this place
four years, and had won numerous
friends by her lovable disposition
and sweet ways. She was pupil
of the High school, one of unusual
intelligence and had won the hearts
of both teachers and pupils. She
was also q faithful member of the
Christian Endeavor Society of this
place, ever ready to do whatever
she was called to do with a cheer
full heart, and as a teacher of the
primary class in the Sunday School
of the Congregational church, she
won the confidence and love of her
little army and manifested the
greatest interest in teaching them
of the dear Father who called her
to His side SO suddenly.
The funeral was held at the Con-
gregational church Monday after
noon at 2 o'clock, Rev, G. L. Mason
conducting the services. The school
being closed that afternoon the
many companions of the dear girl
who had passed away from their
midst, followed the remains to their
last resting place with Borrowing
hearts and fearful eyes. Many
beautiful floral emblems covered
the casket, the greater portion of
them coming from the school. ''May
she be our Guardian Angel" is the
sentiment so beautifully expressed
through Prof Koontz from the High
school. Well might it be used for
all Miss Elsie's loving friends, who
will never cease to be reminded Of
her noble character and generous
while she was associated
with them. She leaves, besides her
parents, two brothers, Charles and
Mervin Coon, one sister, Mrs. Pet
5yjohn, and brother-in-law Mr.. Pet
5yjohn, who all have the sincere
sympathy of this community in
heir sad hour of bereavement.

sisting of dramas, specialties, com

as well as instructive and amusing,
and highly praised by the press

goers who witnessed the production
of "Hayseed" by Buchanan's ar

The symptom indicates softening of

to boom self, and who never know
when they .have had enough" A
brother philosopher pointed out
one of these fellows to me the other

recognizes it, he stops everything
and spends a week in congratula-

and that, without his publicly pro-
claiming his superior fitness, and
