Clarence Smith, whose deatn was
mentioned in last weeks paper, Is SO
we'll known in and about Sank Centre
that to give an extended review of his
life is unnecessary. He was born in
Raymond and spent the greater part
of his life there. He was at one time
a pupil in the Sank Centre school and
later took a course at the Academy.
He began to teach at the age OF seven
teen and was very successful, as he
had been an energetic and conscien-
tious pupil. Having taught continu-
ously for Ave years he this year
sought less combining employment,
spending the early spring months can
wasting. For the six weeks previous
to his death he was employed by the
Wild Rice Lumber Company, of Ada,
boarding with his aunt, Mrs. Dan
VanOrman, with whom his mother was
also spending the summer. The Ada
Herald gives the following account of
his death, June II: Friday evening
after partaking of his supper Clarence
o. Smith went up to the north end Of
the lake to go in swimming. Smith
jumped into the water from the log
boom stretched across the lake chan
mel short distant above the dam.
Frank Stuart, who had come up with
Smith, was in a boat above the boom.
AS near as we can learn, Smith came
up with his head above the water and
called to Frank to bring the boat. AS
the boy reached the boom, Smith went
down again. Comparing the accounts
given by the different parties who had
by this time reached the scene of the
accident, it appears that he came near
the surface second time and held his
hand up 1t was thirty minutes from
the time he went down until the body
was recovered, and life was extinct.
The body was found in a sitting post
ure against the old Golfer dam in about
twelve feet of water and about that dis
tance from shore and at the spot where
he went down. 1t is believed Smith
was taken with cramps as he went into
the water, as he is reported to have
beeu good swimmer.
Clarence counted his friends by the
score. He was of peculiarly gent al
disposition and found no trouble in
making friends among all classes of
people. He was boy of excellent
morals. entering upon promis ing
manhood, with a physique that gave
promise of long and healthful life.
Three children yet remain to com fort
the Borrowing parents who are in his
de 9TH second time bere aved within
six months. May God soften the bio W
as only He can.
Ear beyond the Orient shadows
Floats the golden fringe of day,
Heart to heart we bide the shadows
Till the mists have cleared away"

home Of his uncle, where he was kindly
cared for, and during the greatest suf-
fering patiently and bravely fought
against the fatal disease, consumption,

hours before his death, when he ex-
pressed his willingness to go if it was
Gods will.
He was loving son and brother, a
kind and indulgent husband and faith
err. and true friend, concealing his
own trials and striving even during his
last hours to cheer those about him.

pail bearers. The bereaved family

Twenty years ago the weekly relig-
ious papers we're nearly all big blanket
sheets, like the dailies. One after an
other they reduced to the size of Harp
er's Weekly and The Scientific Ameri-
can, or even to half that size. It was
inevitable that the most enterprising
of them shonld reachthe ultimate form,
that of a magazine, and The Indepen-
dent ofNew York, the mostcomprehen-
sive of them all, announces that with
its first issue in July it will appear as
a weekly magazine of the size of the
Century. 1t will have a cover, and
usually 81 pages, which will be in
creased when necessity requires. 1t
proposes with the altered form to main
tain its full quota of able writer's, and
its various editorial departments,
covering religious, political, social
and literary matter, to which it owes
its prominence. 1t will not be illus
trated, except as it's admirable series
of maps illustrate the events of current
history. The price will at the same
time be reduced from three dollars to
two dollars ayear and single copies
from ten cents to five cents.

HamIine University,

The Annual Catalogue of Hamline
University, st. Paul, for the current
year has just reached us. It shows
that the institution is in fourishing
condition with a steadily increasing
attendance in its various departments
and aconstantly improving curriculum
The total number of students enrolled
is 40, of which IS are in the Medical
Department and 3l2 are in the College
of Liberal Arts. There are Ii who
receive the degree of Doctor of Medi-
cine and 80 who receive Bachelors
Degrees. There have been 176students
in the college. courses, besides II post
graduates and Ito students in the pre-
paratory classes The course of study
has also been altered in several minor
ways, especially by the addition of a
year. more work in English literature.
We are of the opinion that, while study
of the foreign languages is good
thing, a college of higher learning
owes it to its graduates to introduce
them fully to the wonderful richness of
both the prose and the poetical liter
allure of our English tongue The
faculty still adheres to it's view that at
least one of the classic languages
should be considered an Indispensable
condition to the granting OF degree
of collegiate rank, and refuses to grant
degree for merely an English course.
We take this opportunity to congratu-
late the institution on it's increasing
prosperity. 1t is doing superior work
as shown by the rank that is being
earned by its graduates, and deserves
to succeed and promises to continue to
be one of the most substantial seats of
learning of this region of the country.

In Assisting to Rescue Evangelina Cis-

Wife of the Future.

WASHINGTON. May ol.-Evangelina
Cossio Cisneros. the young Cuban girl,
is soon to wed Mr.. Carlos Carbonel, the
former Cuban banker, who has been
nominated by President Mckinley to
be a lieutenant and aide on the staff
of Maj-Gen. Fitzhugh Lee.
When Carl Decker went to Havana
with the express purpose of liberating
Miss Cisneros. he found a trusted
lieutenant in the person Of Mr.. Car
bonel. although like Mr.. Decker, he
was at the time unacquainted with the
fair young Cuban. When the night of
the rescue from the Havana prison
came, Mr.. Carbonel was at Deck err
side during the affair.
To Carbonel vas intrusted the duty
and privilege of accompanying the girl
to New York. Companionship between
the two natives of a common cline soon
ripcned into love, and the usual details
of courtship followed, with the result,
that the wedding will shortly take
place. probably before Lieut.. Carbonel
shall be ordered into the field. although
no definite time has been decided On by
Miss Cisneros, her guardian. Mrs
Logan, or the groom-to-be.
