For The JOURNAL.
DO YOUR BEST.


Hate not the sinner. hat the ain:
For IL yOO look yOnr heart within.
YOn'll sec TINT you have sometimes broke
The rule" Of which our Savior spoke.
80 as you would forgiven be,
Help up the fallen Cnes you zee;
And do your best, each livelOng day,
To keep them in the narrow way.
Speak gently, kindly, 10 the weak.
And let them know their good you seek.
Perhaps gentle, kindly wOrtls from you,
Can make them strong anal brave and true.
Though only few words Of cheer.
'Tis hest to speak while they are here;
And not neglect, till lifs's brief day
IL past, and they are gone away.
And as you tread the path Of life.
Keep in the right, and shun all strife:
And may you ever do your best.
With thankful heart. nor mind the rest.
For when your deeds are counted DER.
Our God will ask Of you No more.
IL you can say, II did my best
He'll give to yOu eternal rest.

The funeral of Valentine 8. Hoy, who
was killed in Wyoming by outlaws, was
held Wednesday afternoon at Fremont.
The ceremonies were under the direction
of the Masonic lodge of Fremont. The
sermon was delivered by Rev. Buss.
The trouble grew out of outrages that
the outlaws had committed, one OF these
being the murder of 16-year-old boy
named StranR, who made his homo with
the Hoys. The gang were followed, and
four outlaws paid their life as penalty
for their crimes, and they were wrapped
in their blankets and buried.
