THE BLIGHT OF FAsT1p1ousNnss

But seriously, how is 1t that fastid-
 using the word-should be to those in
 whom it is the dominant quality such a
 pitiable source of weakness, and should
 be able to destroy so completely that
 strong sense of happiness and of the
 enjoyment of life which is the best soil
 wherein to cultivate every kind Of sue
 cess? One reason is, perhaps, that
 there is no atmosphere so prejudicial to
 mental and moral strength as that of a
 small clique guarded by a shibboleth
 Without what Louis Stevenson calls
 "the bracing contact with the world" a
 man loses that sense of proportion
 which alone can transform his knowl-
 edge into wisdom. He may attain to
 'an acid sharpness of insight" but
 never to 'the large, unconscious genial
 ity of the worlds heroes" Stevenson
 said-untruly, we think-of Thoreau
 what may be applied with truth to the
 men of whom we are speaking: He
 was not easy, nor ample, nor unbane, nor even kind; he had no waste lands or kitchen hidden in his nature, but was all improved and sharpened to point" To the clique dwellers" fatsidiousness becomes the microscope of folly, and every day as he discerns more he is able to grasp less Among people of any in- telectual capacity disgust and boredom are the natural result of an artif1cially circumscrbed outlook, and the cabbage leaves of culture become inexpressibly wearisome to those who trot upon them in the fruitless search after petty per- lection. For all the care they expend upon their mental constitution, they cannot avoid the complaint of the cpl cures of culture-a certain 'loathing of mind" "Niceless and satiety'' are fitly coupled together by Lord Bacon. The cult of discrimination, pursued for its own sake, will finally lead it's followers away from all truth. They gradually lose hold on essentials, and become ab- sorbed in details. They look at the manner and not at the man; at the writing, not at the block; at the paint a Ing, not at the picture. They sift, re- iect appraise, classify, and differentiate till "the world, unfathomably fair, seems duller than witling's jest" To them method Is all and aim is nothing and as they pick their path to nowhere hey discuss whether life Is worth liv- ng, and though neither valiant nor are ready to give it up only upon weariness to do the same hing so oft over and over" In truth, hen, the verdict at the intellectual ,oroner's inquest on such men must be 1eath from "niceness and satiety."- The Spectator.

 Afternoon. sv

Afternoon.
 M. Townsend were held yesterday af- ternon at Center church at 2:S0 o'clock Owing to illness at the family home on Townsend avenue services were held only at the church. Captain Townsend had been so long and prominently con- nected with the New Haven Grays and
 with the Second company. Governors S
 Foot Guard, that both of those organ
 izations turned out and attended the
 services at the church and at the Grove
 street cemetery. The two commands
 marched from the armory at 215 to
 Center church, each in dress uniforms,
 and marched into the church after the
 remains occupying especially reserved
 seats.
 Banked about the casket in front of
 the pulpit were many very beautiful
 tributes of flowers, among the most
 notable pieces being those from the
 Grays and Foot Guard. The former
 was handsome piece containing in violets the company's motto "Semper Fidelis."
 The magnificent floral offering from the Second company, Governors Foot Guard, was in the form of the com pany's pin, and about six feet in diam eter The outer circle of gold was made of beautiful large yellow chrys- anthemums, upon which rested the let ter "G" five feet in diameter and ten inches wide of solid violet, over 40O0 being consumed in it's creation. In- side this letter of violets was a circle of white roses and carnations, inscrib- ed with the company's motto "Patriam Defendimus, 1775," and the center bore the monograms c. F. G., 2, in gold on a bed of red roses and lily of the valley It was one of the largest and handsom- est floral testimonials ever designed in this city and was from the establish ment of Frank s. Platt,
 The tribute was selected by com- mittee consisting of William Neely, Theodore H. Macdonald and John c. Kebaban.
 At the church the service was con- ducted by Rev. pr. Newman Smyth, who read from the Scriptures and of fered prayer. In his prayer he made beautiful allusion to the memory of the departed, his interest in the sol diers in our civil war his ministering to others in suffering and affliction, his devotion to his country and in the home circle, his usefulness for so many years in civil life and his long Christian life. He also spoke beautiful words oI con- solation to the bereaved ones and con- corning the Christians hope of reunion in the life to come.
 The fine choir of the church sang several selections. At the l close of the services at the church the Foot Guard and Grays, headed by the | Second regiment band led the long pro- cession of carriages to the Grove street l As the casket was being | borne out of the church the Second reg | iment band, MT.

Career

Hartford, Conn, Oct. 21.-Rear Adj
miral Francis NJ. Bunce, U. S. N. (re-
tired), died Saturday morning at his
home here.
Admiral Bunce's death, while sud-
den, was not entirely unexpected, as
his family had been warned to expect
the worst. Last May cancer of the
tongue developed and an operation in
Boston resulted In the removal of the
admirars tongue. In September the
disease attacked the throat and the
patient grew weaker from that time,
fighting a hopeless battle with the
courage which has always character
lied the man. Two weeks ago he
took to his bed and had been prac-
tically confined there since.
Hnd Rendered Disting uished Service.
Washington, Oct. 81. Admiral
Bunce was one of the veterans of the
civil war in which he rendered most
dis tinguished service. He was the
predecessor of Admiral Sicard as COM
mander in chief of the North Atlantic
squadron, and was more active than
any naval officer of his time in inn

The Democratic Candidates.

The democrats of the county have
every reason to feel proud of their
ticket. In the person Of:
j. f. SHUT, candidate for represen-
tative, is presented to the voters Of
the county one who is in every way
qualified for the position for which he
has been nominated. His ability to
perform the duties which devolve
upon member of the state legislature,
is unquestioned, and his character
and integrity is above reproach.
lie is one of the working, pro
gressive and prosperous farmers OF the
county, and the many who have long
held that that office should be filled
by a farmer, at least part Of the
time, may now have their wishes graf
flied. Mr.. Shntt is public spirited
citizen in the full sense of the term.
He has always taken deep interest
in public affairs, having on different
occasions served the people in public
capacity to their entire satisfaction,
and he is careful student of those
questions upon which depend the
public welfare.
A typical American in the height of
vigorous manhood, both physical
and mental, he is a credit to the
county, and II elected will be an honor
to 1T aud to the state.
A. G. CAMPBELL, the candidate for
sheriff, needs no introduction to tile
people of Howard county. During
the time that he has served them as
sheriff he has well earned the title OF
being the best sheriff in the state.
His record has surely been credit IT,
the county and, as we all believe IN
rewarding merit, there is little doubt
of his reelection.
r. ]. WOODS, the nominee for treas.
urer, is particularly well-fitted to per
form the duties of that Office. Since
leaving the farm home of his parents
in Howard Center he has been for five
years the trusted book-keeper for j. j
Fitzgerald at Madison, S. D., and fol
the past five years he has been a col
lector and salesman for the d. M. Os
borne Co., who recently showed their
confidence in him by Offering him 6
general agency with headquarters al
Dubuque.
| P. NJ. HERoLD, who was nominated
| by the first district as candidate fol
supervisor, is one of the large land
Iowners and successful farmers of New
lOregon township. The fact that liz
has made a success of his own bust
ness is proof that he is entirely com
potent to look after the business o
the county. He has always been {
firm believer in the old maxim tina
honesty is the best policy. The voters
of the first district will advance thei
Town interests by voting for Mr.. Herold
Northern Iowa Democrat.
