INSTALLED.
Rev. F. J. Barackman formally In.
stalled Pastor.

Last Thursday evening Rev. F. j.
Barackman was installed pastor of the
Presbyterian Church of Redwood
Falls, in accordance with the usages of
that denomination. The exercises were
in charge of Rev. Badger of Tracy,
who was assisted by Rev. Frazier
of Marshall, Rev. John Sinclair of ST..
Paul, and Rev. H. McHenrv of Delhi.
After singing, reading of selection
from lst Timothy by Mr.. McHenry,
and prayer by Mr.. Sinclair, Mr. Bad
ger preached the ordination sermon,
taking his text from Rev. xiv, 81. The
exhortation was an earnest one
throughout, and was thoroughly mis-
sionary in its spirit. The example and
command of the founders of Christ
ianity, 60 into all the world and
preach the gospel, was contrasted with
the narrowness of the Jews of New
Testament times, who thought only of
their own city. The speaker was pat
riotic as we'll as evangelistic and
eloquent, IN calling attention to the
new departure of the United States, in
taking up the wrongs and expressions
of the colonial subjects of Spain. He
thought the eyes of our people we're
being opened to the fact that we can
not exist wholly for ourselves and dis
regard injustice and intolerance at
our gates.
At the close of the sermon, Mr..
Badger announced the purpose of the
meeting, and put the usual ordination
questions to pastor and people.
MIR. McHenry offered the ordination
prayer, and was followed by Mr.. Fra
zier of Marshall, with words of coun-
sci to the newly installed pastor. The
central thought was Paul's exhortation,
that Christ's ministers are ambas-
sadors for him, to act in his stead.
Their position was royal one, but,
was to be filled in the spirit of their
master. They ought to plead, and not
seek to compel men to be reconciled
to the King whom they served.
To Mr.. Sinclair was assigned the
the charge to the people. After con-
trasting the smiling faces which now
welcomed him from his old congrega-
ton with the same faces as be remem-
bered them on the occasion of his last
farewell service, Mr.. Sinclair reminded
his audience that he was in peculiar

Spanish Royal Standard.

The Spanish royal standard is most
complicated. The red and yellow of
the Spanish flag is said to be derived
from this occurrence: In 1878 Charles
the Bold dipped his fingers in the blood
of Godfrey, count of Barcelona, and
drew them down the counts golden
shield, in token of his appreciation of
the latter's bravery The shield, so
marked, became. the arms of Barcelona,
which became part of Arragon, and
it's arms were taken by that kingdom
Now to the royal standards; In the
first quarter, or upper left-hand part
of the flag, are the arms of Leon and
CASTLE, the lion and the castle; the
second quarter is taken up. one-half
by the arms of Arragon one-half by
the arms of Sicily. The upper third of
the third quarter directly under the
frst) shows the Austrian colors, the
lower two-thirds is DIVIDED between
the flag of Burgundy and the black
lion of Flanders; the UPPER third of
the fourth quarter shows the chequers,
another Burgundy device while the
lower two-thirds is sharedlby the red
eagle of Antwerp and the gold lion of
Drabant, and on the top of al this are
two shields, one showing the Portu.

last summer 1 stopped one day under
the inviting shade of thick-headed
beech to rest and cool my horse.
Soon heard soft, measured tramp,
tramp in the thick dust of the road,
and, looking up, beheld an old man
approaching my shade, his chin against
his breast.
He came up, said: "Howdy, stran-

emitted long, deep sigh.
He took out his jackknife and nerv-
ously whitfield his right shoe sole a
few seconds, then closed the knife
again, rammed it back in his pocket
and looked around at me with an ex-
preston of desperate agony.

ly. I never go back on Teller that

skin was about to slip. Come over to-
morrer an git her.
'The gal loved Stacey, an SO, when

the pirtiest gals in the settlemint, be-
sides the best sang digger in the coun-
ty. I was gittin' along fine-havin' no

was that we went to the old gal an
laid the case in front of her. She
kicked against the proposition at fust,
but soon gentled off. The next day
Squire Manning divorced me an her

and get rid of him?"

Are all our heroes dead?
Is American courage fed?

Three months ago,
Ere the word of war" was said.
Are our city boys all dudes
Shopkeepers, weaklings, prudes7
Men told us SO
Three months ago,
And warned us 'gainst all feuds.
Are they holiday soldiers" all

And their suits so tight"

At the land of pork and cod.

And see Woods men

And you'll sing different tune.

See one out of ten men fall!

For single glance

AS they spring through the chaparral tops!
Mere knights of the PEN
Mere football men
These lads whom the lead ne'er stops.
See O'Neill march down the Incl
See Capron's saber shine!
With never halt
Meath the leacen salt.
They spring toward the hidden line.
See the awe-struck Spaniards run!

With that dude Fish, at the head!

See Hobson's immortal eight
AS they enter hells yawning gate

Till they rise, in spite of fate.

OF our heroes then living and dead
That men don't fight
Like that for the right p
To deal in bacon and bread. 'aS

And said that we feared
Forever their silence hold.
