Miss COrdie Wiley.

A few months ago when Miss
Cordie left her home and went to
Marlinton, with the bloom of youth
and health upon her cheek, her
family and friends expected that
after the summer she would.return
and again take her place in the
home and make it bright and hap
py, and in her kind and gentle way
once more make glad the hearts OF
her friends. But it was not to be
so. Her work here among US was
nearing completion, but few short
weeks remained, and for Il wise pur-
pose, that to be spent among stran
gers, then her christian life would
be finished and she would be called
to her reward.
On Friday Of last week, Mr. and
Mrs James c Wiley received tele-
gram informing them that their
daughter Cordie was seriously i'll at
Marlinton. immediately they start
ed to the bedside of their daughter
to find, on arriving that the fond
hopes they had entertained on the
weary way were groundless, for
her life was spared but "A few short
honrs afterwards.
TO her sister Lucy. who was with
her during her brief illness she
said-"Why do you weep, sister
I'm going home" Cordie's life
was that of useful christian and
that is the reason that at it's peace
full close, she could speak such
words of comfort to the dear ones
left behind
The remains arrived at home
early Monday morning and at l ]
o'clock, in the Presbyterian church
in the presence of large num- bel
of persons, decidedly appropriate
service was conducted by Rev. W
W Carson, after which interment
took place in the Monterey Gene
terry. At this service one OF the
songs so sweetly sung, was-"l'n
Going Home"
The pail bearers were. John j..
P. X, j. Fl. Kramer, H. a. Terry
and n. B. Woods. all uncles of the
deceased and J. N. Slower.

Death of COrdie Wiley,

Died, at Marlinton, W. Va. Aug 4th
1901, Miss Cordie Wiley, second daugh-
ter of James Wiley Of Monterey, Va
aged nineteen years. Thus ended short
but very useful life Cordie, thou art
gone and our hearts are sad, but We mourn
not as those that have no hope.
AT REsT
They made her bed ON the green hill
side,
When the clouds wept mahy tear;
They laid her to lest with loving han DIS
When the sunset hour was near.
Through the valley of death we saw her
pass,
Where the shadows hung deep and
long,
But 1t led TO the gates of beautiful land
To the land Of light and song.
The stern business of life proceeds as, OF
yOre
And all that Is meath the sun;
The noise and the tumult toll and care
But our Coraie's part is done.
Oh! A blissful release from sad, sad
room
And the long SLOW hours OF pain
Obi A blissful exchange of a sin-sick
world
For a kingdom where christ relgns.
Then weep not for her who hath gone to
rest,
Whom we miss from her place today,
If heaven had tears, she might weep fol
us
Should we In exile delay.
Then plant a sweet rose on the silent
mound,
And bid it to bloom and wave,
| 1t is better far than the marble cold
Of that peaceful and new made grave

GREYHOUNDS.
The. Are the Flectest of All .sux
 Footed Animals.

Comparatively few people realize of what remarkable speed dogs are capa- bIe. Some remarkable statistics in re- gard 10 this have been gathered by M. Iusolier, a French scientist
 After pointing cut tlc marvellous en- durance shown by little fey terriers who follow their masters patiently for hours while the latter are riding on bi- cycles oi, rrT~carIiages. l.c sa.ss that even greater endurance is eA0N,n by certain VI! animals that 2:'c an to Goss.
 Thus the Wolf can tGa between 5O and 60 miles in enc night and all arctic fox can do qute 2s well, if not better.
 Nansen met one of these foxes on the Ice at a point more .h.n 70 a4iles north west of the SanAikew territory. which Is 4SG miles from the \ siatc coast. Es- kimo and Siberian Goss caa travel 45 miles ou the ice in five hou:s and thcre Is one case on record in which q team of Eskimo dogs traveltd Ga miles in 2S minutes.
 According to M. Drsolic,. .tAc speed Of the shepherd dogs and those used in hunting ranges from 10 10 l. wards a second. English settlers ana pointers hunt at the rate of lS 10 19 miles an hour, and they can maintain this speed for at least two hours.
 FoXhounds are extraordinarily swift. as is proved by the fact that a dog of this breed once beat a thoroughbred horse, cove ing four niles in G1a nliu- Gte>, which was at tl4e rate of nearly IS wards a st >ond.
 Grcyhounds are the sw;ftest of all four footed creatures, and their speed may he regarded as equal to that of carrier pigeons, English grcyhounds. which are carefully selected and whcE are used for coursing, are able to eov- CT at full gallop space between IS and 23 yards every second.
