Lutheran Academy Dedicated.

4
The buildings and grounds of the AL
bion Academy which has been recog-
nlzed seat of learning in this locality for
nearly half century past, was on Mon
day formally dedicated as sectarian in
stltution to be known as the Ell. A. Preus
Lutheran Academy.
The occasion brought out an attend
ance estimated to be fully 1000 people,
many people coming by train to Edger-
ton where line of buses conveyed the
visitors to Albion. Hundreds also drove
IN from the surrounding country, some
coming from as far away as Mcfarland,
Cambridge and Stoughton. The Scan
dlnavlan pioneers were largely in evil
dence and gave ample assurance of their
interest in the new school at Albion.
A large tent had been secured for the
exercises which was pitched on the
campus in front of the main building.
The morning exercises were conducted in
the Norwegian language, the principal
address being made by Rev. 0. P. Vangs-
mes of Storm City, Iowa, and music was
furnished by the Mcfarland band. Din
ner was served to those who desired in
the boarding house connected with the
institution. The afternoon exercises,
conducted wholly in English, consisted
OF prayer by Rev. Bredeson of Slough
ton, an address by Rev. G.. A. Gulixon of
Beloit upon the necessity of sectarian in
struction; a well-timed address by ex-
Supt j. q. Emery who reviewed the his
tory of Albion Academy and coDgratu-
lated the management of the new acad-
envy on its suspicious opening. On be-
half of the Lutheran Synod Rev. L. S. J.
Rogue of DeForest welcomed the Ell. A.
Preus Academy to the list of educational
institutions in that denomination. Tel
egrams of congratulation were read from
the faculty and students of Luther Col
lege at DEBORAH, Iowa, and Lutheran
Academy at Hamlin, MINI. Prof. r. B.
Anderson of Madison, who was also on
the program for an address, was unable
to be present.
The Edgerton band was on the grounds
and rendered a number of selections.
The improvements that have BEEN
made to the buildings and grounds in
anticipation of opening the school at
tracted the attention of nearly all who
attended the dedication services The
buildings have all been renovated, new
floors laid, every room papered and dec
Grated and painted throughout. It was
a common remark that the buildings
were never in such good repair or more
attractive than at present. New furni-
ture has beed purchased for the dormi-
tories, the audience and recitation rooms
furnished with new seats and everything
about the institution is bright, new and
clean.
The academy opened Tuesday with
the new faculty, Rev. D. G Ristad being
at the head and the attendance already
pledged is very fiattering.
The academy was founded in 1854 by
the Seventh Day Baptists and has been
known as the Albion Academy. Many
prominent men have graduated from the
institution in the past The academy is
now owned by an association of Norwe-
gian Lutheran churches in southern
Wisconsin and has been given it's pres
ent name in honor of the late Rev. Ell. A.
Preus, for many years president of the
Norwegian Lutheran Synod.

Accident On the New Line.

Eight men were seriously injured in
an accident on the new Chicago line
Wednesday, and the injured brought to
the hospital to GAINESVILLE for treatment.
The accident occurred one mile east of
Tioga, small station seventeen miles
east of GAINESVILLE at lO:45 o'clock. The
section crew, under the supervision of
w. w. Bond roadmaster, and Fl. E. Car
rell, also of Chicago, trainmaster, was
unloading a dump car of gravel on a
curve in the road where there is thirty
foot fill rip-rapped with large stones.
The car stood on slant, being on the
curve, and for some unexplainable reas-
on the upper half of the car, which is in
two sections, was unloaded first. The
load being all in the lower side of the
car, it was unbalanced and suddenly
tipped over and down the dump.

The cause was paralysis, of nature
that increases continually the more n
patient moves, ,and It had reached a state
where death was relief. While the
the brothers and sisters deeply regret
the loss, they feel that it is for the best,
as his suffering is over. Besides six
brothers and two sisters, he leaves a
wife and four children.
Mr.. Harris will be remembered by
many here, having visited his two

NERVE WASTE" +"

One of the most helpful books on
nerve weakness ever issued Is that en-
titled "Nerve Waste" by DIR. Sawyer,
of San Francisco, now in its fifth thou
sand. This work ofan experienced and
reputable physician Is In agreeable con-
trast to the vast sum of false teaching
which prevails on this interesting sub
iect. 1t abounds in carefully consider
ed and practical advice, and has the
two great merits of wisdom and sim
.cerity.
1t is endorsed by both the religious
and secular press. The Chicago Adj

and the application ofits principles will
put health, hope and heart into thou

This country, with its seventy-five
millions, now leads the civ
LEADER ilized world. But with so
OF THE vast continent, the re-
WORLD. sources of which have
merely been touched, it is
certain that it has only passed the first
great stage of its distinction. The new
century opens vista of growth in ma
terial and political things that invites
the highest ambition of scholars and
statesmen, and the best energies of all
the people. There will be larger oppor-
tunities than ever before, and the re-
ward will be greater than at any time
in the worlds history.
Irrigation has already achieved mir
acles in The far West and it is only in
its beginning. Millions and millions
OF people will find beautiful homes on
what are now arid plains. Water will
make the deserts bloom like n garden of
Eden, just as it has at Riverside and
other places in California. Thus there
will be on the other side of the Missis-
sissippi, in the course of time, as great
IA population as that which stretches
eastward. Every year the center of
population moves westward. Every
decade this rate of movement will grow
swifter.

Telluride's Strike.

The miners employed On the Snug
gler-Union mine at Telluride walked
out last Wednesday morning and a
strike is now on. Phe cause is the con.
tract system carried on by the mine
owners, which is claimed to be men
ace to- life and limb of employees owing
to the slip-shod way in which timber
ingr ETC., is done. 1t is hoped the diff
1culty will soon be amicably settled
and that it will be the end of labor
