Twenty years ago millions OF bottles

would that we could say on all ques-
tions. But there is one. and that the
greatest, upon which it is either stub
bornly silent or exactly wrong: the
money question Here and there, upon
favorable occasion, the P-D. slyly
sticks pin in behalf of the Money
Trust, the biggest, the thievingest. the
cruellest o: all trusts-iu fact the moth
er of them all. As is natural when one
departs from the advocacy of the true
and the good, the P.-D. is not exactly
fair in its methods. For instance, in
Tuesdays issue we find the following:
For the three weeks ending May 81,
the amount of defaulted liabilities from
failures in the United States was 81
$50. iii. against $9.l74 ,563 during the
same period last year. s., 253, 664 in
1897 and So, sos, 1853 in 1896 Some of
this reduction of failures is due to
trust concentration, but large residue
may be attributed to better conditions.
Now, We confess this sort OF work
makes US tired 1t is suited TO certai n
Trade Reviews, those magnanimous
aids to the maintenance of the national
honor as viewed from the stock ex-
change and curbstone; it is worthy the
thick-aud-thin sheets the breath OF
whose nostrils is in the pleasure of
Mark Hanna and Wall Street. But it
is not suited to the standard of a big
hearted, fair-minded newspaper. Why
does the P.-D. take those particular
three weeks of each year to make its
showing? Is it because the odor of
other three weeks would not be as
sweet to the nostrils of the patriotic
Goldbug? Yet we are glad to see that
the P-D. admits that ''some of this
reduction is due to trust concentra-
tion." A little leaven swells the whole
batch. Let it think the matter out on
this line and see from which end of
the horn this new-fangled Prosperity
will emerge.

ing to endorse certificates or grant
special examinations. So come out,
teachers, and show by your presence
that you are interested In the work
you have chosen.
The County Institute is a powerful
factor in building up educational inter
est among the teachers, and the
schools of a county are what the teach
ers make them. Teaching children
is the greatest of all responsibilities.
That upon which the teacher leaves
his impress is the human soul" No
teacher can afford to assume SO great
a responsibility without having awaited
himself of every opportunity for be-
coming more efficient in his work.

SAYS the Teas Railway Nesos ana
illustrator of one known TO the editor
of this paper through three years. close
companionship, and fully deserving
the good words herein given him:
The Wabash Railroad is ably rep
resented in the Southw by w. z.
Conner. The headquarters of this
genial gentleman are at Dallas, Texas,
and his title is Southwestern Passen-
ger Agent. Mr.. Conner was born in
Galesburg, ILL.,, and served in the
Union Army from April, 1861, to the
close of the war. He has been honor
ed in the past by being elected Depart
ment Commander of the Grand Army
of the Republic for Texas, which posi-
tion he filed until recently. Mr.. Con-
ner began railroad service with the
Illinois Central in 1867, and has never
been off a pay roll for a single day
since. The Wabash claims to have
the finest trains in the world, and it
might add that it has some of the
finest passenger men in existence, and
Mr.. Conner is one of them.

In Memoriam.

| Annie Elizabeth Schwab was borr
on her fathers farm one mile west o
Pilot Knob, on November 8, 1881. anG
had attained the age of II years,
months and IA days.
Being of kind and sweet DISPOSE
ton she was general fayorite
Whether at home, school or Sunday
School she was always obedient, polite
and affectionate. She was very fonG
of reading, and devoted much time t.
searching the truths of the Scriptures
About the 1st of May she was taker
sick and during nearly month of in
tense suffering she was never heard tt
complain or murmur at her lot.
On the 21st of May, finding that she
was not improving at home, it was
thought advisable to take her TO the
Mullanphy Hospital of st. Louis fol
treatment, but upon close consultation
she was found to be beyond the reach
! of human aid and the following day the
end came peacefully at 1920.
She retained consciousness to the
last moment, and realizing that the
end was near, thanked those present
for the kindness shown her during her
illness. selected the schoolmates she
wanted as pail bearers, and after bid
ding farewell to her relatives and
friends at home, expired while breath
ing a last prayer.
She met death bravely for one so
young. She will be greatly missed,
but her parents and brother and sis
tiers will find consolation in the
thought that she died so happily.
Rev. j. F. Fritz of the Lutheran
church preached her funeral sermon,
taking for his text part of the 5th
chapter OF st. Mark. The pupils of
the German Sunday School sang two
farewell songs at the grave as did also
the pupils of the public school.
She was laid to rest in the family
burial ground on her fathers farm.
She walked with God in holy joy,
While yet her days were few;
The deep glad spirit of the maid
To love and reverence grew.
Whether each nightly star to count
The ancient hills she trod,
Or sought the how'rs by stream and fount-
Alike she walk'd with God.
And calmly, brightly, that pure life
Melted from earth away;
No cloud it knew, no parting strife
No sorrowful decay;
She bowed her not like all beside,
Unto the spoilers rod,
But joined at once the glorihed,
Where angels walk with God.
So let US walk!-the night must come
To US that comes to all;
We through the darkness must go home,
Hearing the trumpet's call.
Closed is the path for evermore,
Which without death she trod;
Not so that way, wherein of yore
Her footsteps walked with God.
Farewell, beloved and mourn'd! we miss
awhile
The tender gentleness of voice and smile,
And that bless'd gift of Heaven to cheer US
lent
That thrilling touch, divinely eloquent,
Which breathed the soul of prayer, deep,
fervent, high,
Through thy rich strains of sacred har-
mony;
Yet from those very mem 'ries there is born
A soft light pointing to celestial morn.
Oh! bid it guide US where thy footsteps trod,
To meet at last ''the pure in heart'' with
God. A FRIEND.

We do not yet hear that Aguinaldo
has exacted, as a condition precedent
of peace. the payment of a few millions
of dollars by the United States to his
soldiers; but perhaps that is to come.
-SedGIia Daily Capital
If the Fillipinos expect it to come it
is not without analogous reason: uncle
Sam paid Spain twenty millions for the
privilege of thrashing her, and bore
the expense of Transporting her sol
diers to their native health. A ''few
millions" to the Fillipinos in return for
the looting and destruction consequent
upon the present unnecessary war might
not be laid up against us in the eter-

SINGULAR are the DEGREES of Fate.
Geo. w. Wilson, a veteran of the civil
war, was killed by passenger train in
Nashville. Ind, about two weeks ago.
He had served faithfully and we'll the
cause of the Union for three long years
and escaped the dangers incident to
the service only to be brought to this
sad and untimely ending at last. He
was a member of the First Iowa Bat
terry Volunteer Light Artillery, and
took manful part in all its trials and
vicissitudes; was captured and lay for
several months in Jacksonville prison.
At the end of his term of service he
returned to civil life and resumed his
ordinary pursuits. He served two
terms "a sheriff of his county, respect
ed and honored of men. He lost an
arm by the premature discharge of a
cannon on the 4th of July, 1892. AS
the years passed the infrmities of age
beset him. and at his death at the age
of ffty-seven he was stricken with
deafness and rheumatism. He leaves
a widow and four children to mourn
his loss and revere his memory. To
these every member OF the Battery not
..gone before" will join the writer in
extending sympathy and coincidence.
He has gone to that bourne where
wars are unknown and eternal peace
and rest and happiness are the rewards
of the faithful and just Let this be
the consolation o: those who, while
they mourn, do not mourn without
hope.
