Virginia; departed this life in Hook
ing county, y. Oct. 7th. 1898, agee
s3 years, mo. and mo.
She was married about the yeal
1885 to Jesse Mclaughlin.
To this union was born 8 children
5 sons and daughters. Husband and
I children have pre- ceded her to the
home beyond. sons, 81 grandchild
rem and large number of other rela
tives and friends are left to mourn
her loss, but we have reason to be-
leive their loss to be her eternal gain
She was converted and joined the
church in 1880 at the age of Is years
and lived christian life until death
came. When death came she was at
her post. She often talked to her rel.
ative and friends about the Mansion
that Jesus went to prepare for the
faithful. 1t was her delight in her
last years of life to read the sacred
Word of God.
Four years ago she had the misfor-
tune to fall incuring an injury which
medical skill could not repair. This,
with complication of other troubles
called her to that land where affiiction
and sorrow can never come. Just be-
for she took her exit from earth she
seemed to be resting sweetly. Awak-
ing from this slumber, she said to
her son, 81 don't know where | was;
but 1 saw so many young people and
they were all rejoicing and happy"
Surely this is the place of the Blest,
for the Word says that the lame man
shall leap as an hart. Aud the ransom
ed of the Lord shall return and come
to Zion, with songs of everlasting joy
upon their heads; they shall obtain
JOY and gladness and sorrow and sigh
ing shall flee away"
We bow in submission to that One
who doeth all thing well. Mother, we
miss you but bye and bye we will
meet you in that land where no fare
well tears are shed.
Funeral services were conducted
at Bethany church by Rev. Willis
of Junction City on Sabbath morn
ing. Oct. 9th, 1898, in the presence of
a large concourse of friends, after
which her remains were Inferred in
Oak Grove Cemetery at Logan, to
await the Resurrection Morn.

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.

It has been estimated that single

Etherion is the name given by
Charles F. Brush, all electrician, to
an element which he thinks he has
discovered in the atmosphere.
An inch of rain falling upon an area
Of one square mile is equivalent to
nearly 100000 gallons, weighing
145, 250, 900 pounds, or GA, 844 tons.
The beautiful colors seen in the soap
bubble arise from the fact that the
bubble, being very thin, reflects light
from both the outer and inner surfaces
of the film.
While lightning may be seen and it's
illumination of clouds and mist may
be recognized when it is even two
hundred miles distant, thunder is
rarely audible more than ten miles.
The thunder from very distant storms,
therefore, seldom reaches the ear.
1t has been shown that, acre for
acre, water is capable of supplying a
much greater quantity of heterogeneous
food for man than land can supply.
The cultivation of water areas is called
agriculture, and its products, in con
tradistinction to those of agriculture,
are fish, crabs, oysters, clans and othel
edible marine animals.

that the supply is not equal to the de-

old Uncle Sam himself is bachelor
for whoever heard Of Mrs. Sam?-thaN

Perhaps it was out Of solicitude 1ol

Lends in Good Roads,

There are, it is estimated, 100000
miles of highway roads In the United
States, about 20 per cent Of the roads
Of all the world. Great Britain has
100 900 miles of highways and these
are some Of the best in the world.
Germany has 275, 900 miles Of roads, and
some Of them are as poor as the road
ways Of a great country can be.
France, which has taken an enlight-
ened view of the good roads question
for many years, and has spent by gov
ernmental or local authority over
81 600, 100000 on highways, has q road
mileage of $50, 900, more than any other
country. Russia, with an enormous
area, has only 10000 miles Of roadways,
while Italy, a smaller country, has
IS 900. On fine stone roads one horse
ran haul as much as three horses can
haul over an average dirt road Of this
country 1t is estimated that 1t would
be- necessary to build about 100000
miles OF macadamized roads in the
United States in order to have as gooc
q system of public highways as is found
in several European states. AT s4,oo'
a. mile this would involve an outlay O
$4,000, OO0 1000.

Indian Lacemakers.

Lacemaking by the Chippewa In
dian women is attracting attention be-
cause of the recent outbreak at Leech
Lake, Mimi, and the killing OF Major
Wilkinson and a number OF soldiers
of General Bacon's command.
In 1891 Miss Sibyl Carter OF New
York city conceived the idea of pro
viding employment for the women OF .,
the Chippewa tribes of Indians when
would make them self-supportlng'
There was no market for the beadwork
which they made, and she hit upon
the plan of teaching them lacemaklng,
In conjunction with the Eplscopa
mission, she established this depart
ment and sent Miss Pauline Colby tt
instruct the Indian women.
Almost from the beginning the e1
pertinent was a success, and during
the following year large quantity o
the lace thus manufactured was SOL
to wealthy women of New YORK, IN
principal patrons being Mrs. Corneliu
Vanderbilt, Mrs. Astor, Mrs. u I
Huntington and others, who pufcnes
about all of the lace made. MIS-: >
Pierpont Morgan and Mrs. Cornellu
Vanderbilt are now having made 10
them some very fine lace bedspread
for which they pay 5000 each.
,<
Miss Pauline Colby has been r: re
markedly successful with her pupils
and after an experience OF eight yeal
among these women she believes 'Re
are more deft with their fingers an
more painstaking with their work ina
white women, although she says the I;
are not as quick to learn as their VIM
sisters. The Indian women are pal
for their work at the rate OF ten cen
an hour. They are paid as soon
their work is completed.-New 4or

That which is probably one Of the
hardest sayings of Christ to accept,
me that has received the ridicule of
centuries, is illustrated by this Incl
lent. The principle involved in the
command to turn the other cheek to
he smitey is utterly antagonistic to
natural human impulse. "a soft an
,wer t,1rneth away wrath" is form of
presentation of the same principle, that
n theory, at least, is somewhat readily
acknowledged, and its truth was never
more emphatically verified than in the
Incident we have described.

A THRILL FOR AMERICANS.
Two Stripes and Three Stars With the
Crest of the Washingtons.

Two Stripes and Three Stars With the
Crest of the Washingtons.
In the little church of Wickham-
ford, near Evesham, in the most rural,
unchanged part of England, is a
shrine to which no American can re-
pair without thrill to the centre of
his being, says writer in the In
ternational. There, on the north side
of the altar, is tombstone on which
are carved the Washington arms-two
stripes and three stars-7an eagle
springing out Of an antique coronet.
The Latin inscription on the tomb is
to Penelope Washington. The tran
station is as follows:
Sacred to the memory of Penelope,
daughter of that most distinguished
and renowned soldier, Col. Henry
Washington. He was descended from
Sir William Washington, knight, OF
the county Of Northampton, who was
high in favor of those most illustrious
princes and best of kings, Charles the
First and Second, on account OF MS
gallant aud successful military
achievements both in England and IN
Ireland. He married Elizabeth, OF the
ancient and noble stock of the Pack
ingtons of Westwood, q family Of
untarnished loyalty and PATRIOTISM
Sprung from such famous ancestry,
Penelope was diligent and devout
worshipper of God; of her mother
(her only surviving parent she was
the great consolation; to the sick ano
needy she was an exceptionally ready
and generous benefactress. Humble
and chaste and welded to Chris
alone, from this transitory life she de
parted to her spouse.
