The End of a Beautiful Life.

on the morning of September 10Th nj
) o'clock, at the residence of MIR. Rob,
ert Hellams, Miss Beatrice Yea .gin
! died of consumption.
mere never was Il clearer case of
, beautiful self-sacrifice than this - she
| literally gave herself for others. At
elghteen she was left alone-the sole
| support OF widowed mother and four
chlldren. Out from girl hood d's-happy-
care-ree state, she stepped into the
pace OF father and sister and became
supporter, counsellor, educator-doffed
glrlhood with it's buoyant hopes in one
uay ana donned the robes of mourning
ana the crushing responsibity of n
family. With Christian fortitude and
noble self-forgetfulness, she became nil
that father had been. For six wears
she taught in the public schools, for
hve she was organist at the Methodist
church. Duty was her watchword-no
Sacrlllce was too great, no task too
great II home or loved ones or church
or school needed n service. ALWAYS
hopeful Size buried her own ambition
that from It's death might arise greater
thlngs for those she loved and who were
dependent upon her.
woman is greater than any story
one may have to tell of her-greater
than any of Life's mere happenings
so was she-greater in soul, greater
IN good work ks than anything | could
say. Her faith was clear and unwav-
ering. She could not understand why
some things were permitted to be. She
never dared to question accepting
ana meeting every issue and every con-
dltlon in life simply efficiently with q
calm sturdiness of character that made
the seemingly impossible possible for
her. At rare intervals when one who
knew her best of all caught glimpses of
the innermost Holy of Holes she knew
the wonderful courage came from the
wondrous beauty of soul Neither
disappointment, nor trouble, nor obsta-
cles could daunt her. She met death
with which she had met the issues of
life Loving hands draped the organ
Whlch had so long responded to her
touch, tender fingers twined the choir
rail with black and white, beautiful
howers-tit emblems Of the fragrance
of her life. Weeping friends, pastor,
pupils and congregation were eloquent
or the beauty Of her life. "Bh Yeargin
is dead, but the memory of her beauti-
ful life remains with us to encourage us
TO nobler living and purer faith. She
has entered through the gates into
the city"
The above beautiful tribute to one
so fair and so lovely is from devoted
friend who knew her many virtues and
especially the devotion she had shown
In her short life to widowed mother,
and orphaned brothers and sisters.

SONNY" GUNHA To-,
ENTER At STANFORD.
Honolulu Boy Who Will be Big
Acquisition to the Athletic

San Francisco, Aug. 9.-Albert R.
Cunha Of Honolulu, the Yale varsity
catcher and varsity center rush, in
tends to enter Stanford University next
month. big Cunha" as he is called,
is physical giant He is feet II
inches tall, weighs $50 pounds stripped,
measures 50 inches around the chest, 42
inches around the waist, and has re-
markably broad shopi ders.
Cunha is the eldest son of a promi-
nent family in Honolulu, where he
was born and where his father is a
wealthy wholesale liquor merchant.
After completing the four years course
and being graduated from the Oahu
College, in Honolulu. Cunha, who had
been conspicuous athlete on football
and baseball fields and at the native
bathing and boating places in the ISL
ands, came to America and entered
Yale University in the fall of 1888. He
Immediately made the freshman foot
ball team and in the following spring
made the freshman baseball team.
The rule requiring one years residence
after coming from another college de-
barred him from trying for the varsity
teams then, though he was given sopho-
more standing and was rated as mem-
Der of the class of 1901.
Last fall, however, Cunha came out
and entered the field with the varsity
candidates, and he secured the position
of center rush with ease against the
other aspirants. In the spring he made
varsity catcher with much the same
ease.
Last summer Cunha played catcher
for the Burlinghame Club baseball
team. He expects to catch for the same
team In fortnight at the athletic
games at Del Monte. For big man he
is wonderfully quick. Cunha has been
staying at the Occidental Hotel. in this
city, for several weeks with his mother
and younger brother and sister. He
has become conspicuous figure on the
street because Of his great breadth Of
shoulders, which, despite his height,
makes him look almost squatty.
Il have received a letter from my
father" said Cunha yesterday after
noon, requesting me to come down to
Honolulu on business. Unless some
