We often hear of bankers, merchants
and other business men who quietly
pay up their indebtedness after they
have failed, but who ever heard of a
defunct newspaper ever settling up? I
never did until the past week. Ed S.
Kelly, the broker has just broken the
record. A couple of years ago he was
getting out little weekly newspaper
here called the Catholic News. 1t was
starvation proposition from the first,
but he struggled with il for a time.
Finally it suspended. Things came bet
ter for the editor in the mining bust
ness and last week he mailed postal or
ders to every subscriber, paying each
the difference in his subscription from
the time Of suspension to the date paid
up. 1t took about $500 to do it. I can
readily understand how a man with a
conscience like that failed to get rich
IN the business. 1t must have been an
awful shock to some Of those subscrib-
ers' and some of them have had the
grace to reply in pleasant terms-Colo-

Nay, name him not in the city'S mart
with its puny fringe of fame,
But keep him free for the open sea,
where the waves can chant his name
For the meadows green and the glowing
sheen that speak to God on high,
And the birds can sing, in the budding
spring, his praise as they homeward
fly.
All, God, It's hard that you spake the
word that is writ in the record page
The word that SmOte our hearts in twain
for comrade, friend and sage;
'Tis hard that death should strike him
down. and chill our world with pain.
And still the gentle, kindly heart, unwept
of sin or stain.
For him we grieve in the haze and gloam,
that dim the Transformed eye,
For him we look in the gathered gloom
and see but his shadow nigh:
And the Caoine of our voices follows to
the end of his final flight:
Where the lamp of his life lies broken,
and its flame is dead in the night
Winds blow you softly DER his grave, and
let his silence speak,
Through the dying years to our hearts
again, if eer they dare grow weak;
On the bridge of our sorrow standing,
where the nlists of the morning rise,
Be our faith as his, eternal, as his place
beyond the skies.
