DEATH OF nRs. F. E. srITH.
Universally Loved, Her Death Is Uni

Universally Loved, Her Death Is Uni
versalIy Mourned.
Morris has probably never mourned
the loss of one of her daughters as
was the case this week when the en-
tire village was mourning the death
of Mrs. T. E. Smith. She passed
from the cares of earth at an early
hour Tuesday morning, and the news
of her demise spread rapidly to ex-
pectant ears, All day Tuesday and
Wednesday and Thursday, any casu-
al observer could notice that the city
monrned as it were personal loss.
The high place which Mrs. Smith
held in the affections of the people of
Morris found beautiful expression in
the floral offerings at the funeral. In
fact to one SO young, graced with all
the beauties of face and form, the
flowers seemed not mere tokens of
affection, but rather to express sor-
row all their own that life 80 like
their own had passed awBy.
The Methodist church was filled to
overfowing at the time of the funeral.
The audience was deeply affected as
was also the pastor and choir. By
the people the sweet voice of the de-
parted singer was missed, and the
pastor and choir mourned that SO
valuable helper was gone.
Thursday was biting cold day
but large concourse of people fol-
lowed the body to the grave. There
all that was mortal of Mrs. Smith
was laid to rest amid profusion of
beautiful draperies, while all about
Nature put on her most beautiful
garb Of purest white.
Mrs. Lena Thoele Smith was born
at Clearwater. this state, March 2e,
1875. Her father was at that time a
German Methodist pastor. In 1880
the family moved to this county.
Lena's sweet voice was discovered as
early as 1885, when as wee girl, she
would sing in church. She was con-
verted during the pastorate of Rev.
E. P. Robertson and received into full
membership of the NJ. E. church dur
ing the pastorate of Rev. G. A. Cressy.
On June 13, 1897, she was married to
Fred E. Smith, the issue of the mar
riage being two baby boys who sur
yivs her. To these boys, to the be-
reaved husband, and the afflicted
parents, goes out the sympathies of
the community. To Mr.. and Mrs.
Louis Thoele double measure of
sympathy is meted out, for within a
week, Mr.. Thoele has buried his faith
or and Mrs. Thoele her mother.

Get Your Skates.

Mayor Watzke informs US that he
would be agreeable to having some
of the water diverted from the city
mains to,the low ground on the right
of way. Now if some of the skaters
will take the matter in hand, and then
raise small sum to keep the ice
clean from snow, it will be easy to
have skating all winter.

biologists has been called to this hemis- phere as field for archaeological study the great question has been to settle conjectures as to how the prehistoric tribes and nations sprang up in Ameri- ca. The theory most widely accepted is based on the hypothesis that the van- guard of human migration to this con- tinent was composed of wandering tribes from Asia who crossed the Beh- ring Straits into Alaska and who, me- andering southward to North America, finally settled in Mexico. By this theo- ny South America was populated partly by subsequent migrations from the same source and partly by secondary ones from the Mexican settlers. It is possible that further zapotecan eXplo- rations will settle this question which for four hundred years has been a sci entific riddle, and that the phonetic writings, burial customs and architec- tural peculiarities brought to light on and about Monte Alban may disclose the origin and even the progenitors themselves of the first Americans New York Sun.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NOTES.

The sudden rise in price of Boston Electric Light during the last week from 133 to 145 has been partially ex- plained by an examination of the state ment recently sent out by the company, showing nearly IA per cent. earned last year. While the company may not pay in the near future over per cent, the balance can be used with good advan- tage in the property. Moreover, local Boston investors are awaking to the fact that the company has great fu- ture if properly managed.

Its corners had been filled in with smaller stones and the whole mass ce- mented over, so that the tomb was her medically sealed against dampness and other corrosive agents. The lintel of .this doorway was huge stone block of volcanic origin, about six feet loni and eighteen inches wide. Carved across it's entire surface were inscriptions in the hieroglyphics of a civilized race! No writing of such an advanced character as that of these hieroglyphics has ever before been discovered in America. The explorer took casts in plaster and papier mache impressions of this mono- lith, and finally of the whole doorway. The inscriptions show in excellent re- lief. and MT.

 As soon as the doorway was cut through, MT. Saville and his assistants entered the chamber of the tomb. Mu- ral paintings, representing female fig- ures draped in shrouds and in attitudes of prayer were on the walls Three inches in the tomb contained a number of skulls, and other bones comprising parts of ten skeletons, were scattered about. These were all painted a bright red, the same shade as that which cov- cred the bones found outside the cham bers under the cazuelas. Red, Mir.

slble for story of the prehistoric days
OF John Brown.
You may not know It," said the coll
onel, "but up to middle life John Brown
preached and practiced the gospel Of
non-reslstance. A justice of the peace OF
western New York told me OF an exper-
fence he had with him during this per-
iod. Mr. Brown was then occupied In
raising sheep in New York state, and
had imported some particularly fine
breeds.
''After a time Mr.. Brown noticed
rather frequent disappearances Of his
best stock, and at the same time discov-
cred that one OF his nelghbors, a we'll
to-do man, was dining pretty constant
ly on mutton. Feeling morally certain
OF the fate Of his lost sheep. he wrote to
his neighbor TO the effect that the me-
rlnos he had from time to time taken
were worth 800 apiece, and therefore
too valuable for eating purposes; but
that II he would call at Mr.. Browns
house he would be given sheep that

1.-THE neighbor, instead Of politely
thanking Mr.. Brown for his offer, seiz-
ed the first opportunity that presented
Itself for striking him with his horse
whip. But John, faithful to his doctrine
OF non-resstance. only turned the
other cheek and WAS duly dashed. How
ever, the next day he had his neighbOr
arrested for assault But the Justice of
the peace refused to punish the defend
ant on the ground that If n man makes
no effort at self-defense after the first
blow is struck, he cannot legally re-
cover. So, poor Brown not only lost his
sheep, and took a drubblng, but also
lost his case.
About this time he began to take an
active interest In the antl-slavery ques-
ton, and one day found him again Mt
the office Of the justice OF the peace;
this time to talk over the righteousness
OF renouncing his peculiar tenet OF nom
resistanee-wherein he received much
encouragement from the doughty JUS
t!ce.

grated to Kansas, and all the world
knows how flourlshed his non-resistant
princlples there"
