and Is n BronchO Buster of Most
Approved Methods.

From timid little tenderfoot school
mistress in one of the oldest school
districts of Oregon into a broncho
buster of the most approved methods
is only a years record in the life of
Miss Lola Dix, of Heppner. 1t is a
record that has surprised even the
great northwest, used as it is to sur
prises and surprising things.
Ten miles from Heppner, in the mid
die of the broad prairie, is the coun-
try school to which she came to teach
a year ago. Not four of the pupils are
in walking distance of it. The teacher

who registered as Adelbert s. Hay.
There was considerable excitement
about the hotel and a large body of
students and graduates who are here
for the commencement exercises soon
gathered. A number of Hays former
classmates at Yale positively identified
the young man. 1t is believed that Hay
became i'll and went to the window
for air, was overcome by fit of dizzi-
ness and fell to the ground below. A
medical examiner was sent for and
went to the hotel to view the body.
DR.. Bartlett, the medical examiner,
stated that Mr.. Hay probably came to
his death by an accident. The clothes
on the bed had been turned, showing
his intention to go to bed. His clothes
had been folded. On the ledge of the
window was found partly burned CT
garette. This discovery leads to the
belief that Hay had lighted a cigarette
before retiring and went to the win
dow to smoke it. Whether he was
seized with a fit of dizziness or fell
asleep on the window ledge cannot be
determined.
Mr.. Hay was appointed consul to
Pretoria to succeed Consul Macrum
December 4, 1899. 1t was charged that
Macrum had shown undue, favors to
the Beers. AS the representative of
the United States. Consul Hay had
charge of the interests of British sub
jects in the Transvaal and was several

Secretary Hay mt New Haven.
New Haven, Conn, June 24.-Hon.
John Hay, secretary of state, arrived
in New Haven from Washington at 5:45
P. m. Sunday in response to the dis
patch announcing the sudden death of
his son, Adelbert S. Hay. Mr.. Hay
was unaccompanied and gave signs of
great grief. He entered a carriage and
was driven Immediately to the resi-
dence of Mr.. Seth Moseley, SO Wall
street. Worn out with the long trip
from the capital and once within the
walls of the house that sheltered the
remains of his dead son, the secretary
collapsed. His prostration was so COM
plete that medical aid was deemed nee
essary and DIR. Gilbert was summoned.
Miss Helen Hay, a daughter of the sec
rotary, arrived in New Haven from
Boston at 7:10 p. m. Dr.. Samuel ID.
Gilbert, who was summoned in attend
ance upon Secretary Hay, said Sunday
evening that the illness of the secre-
tary is apparently not serious. The
physician said: ''Mr. Hay is simply
overwhelmed by the tragic death of his
son and is suffering from prostra-
tion which win probably be relieved by
sufficient rest"

Hears the Sad News.

Washington, June 24.-Secretary
Hay learned of the death of his son
Adelbert within an hour and a half
of the tragedy through Secretary Cor
telyou. The latter had been called up
on the long-distance telephone at his
residence about three o'clock in the
night by Proprietor Moseley, of the
New Haven house, the scene of the
tragedy. Mr.. Moseley briefly told Sec
rotary Cortelyou of the finding of the
remains on the sidewalk and of the
other details of the accident. Secre-
tary Cortelyou FASTENED at once to the
residence of Secretary Hay and COM
municated the sad news as gently as
possible. The secretary appeared for
the moment to be complet ely crushed,
but rallied and set calmly about pre-
pairing for departure for New Haven
at the earliest moment.
Save the servants, Secretary Hay
was alone in his house, as all of his
family have been absent from Wash
ington since the secretary's visit to
Buffalo. Mrs. Hay, with Adelbert and
her two daughters, had been spending
few days in Cleveland, o., and from
that place went by way of Buffalo to
Newburn, N. H., on the shores Of Lake
Sunapec, where the family had just
settled down for the summer, with the
expectation that the secretary would
join them next month. There was no

the sad news came to the secretary Of
state in the early Sabbath morning.
Secretary Cortelyou, however, was
sympathetically helpful, and, realizing
the feverish desire Of Mr. Hay toreach
New Haven, he looked up the railway
time tables and arranged for an early
departure, so that by nine o'clock Sec

that western civilization has brought
to China that China would have been
far better without; it brought drink,
and it brought opium. and it still
bring these things; God help China!
She has struggled against them, too.
AT one time the Emperor saw what
his people were coming to from the
capital offense to manufacture opium
in China. Then did western civiliza-
ton in its greed see its opportunity,
and from England came great ships
laden with the accursed drug, and it
was poured into China. Bravely
did China revolt, my friends, but she
was weak and was conquered. The En-
peror sent out his men and they cast
the opium into the sea; then
there was great war, and China S
struggle for morality met with defeat.
She was forced to sign a treaty that
allowed the deadly drug to be poured
into her cities, bringing death and
destruction. Once again she revolted.
Millions We're dying under the curse,
and China arose to protest.
Never was greater battle for NOR
atty made than that which China
made when she tried to keep opium
out. But great war vessels came and
poured shot and shell into her cities
till their streets were running with
blood and China was conquered again.
And our own country has done
as much. Every year our great winer-
les pour forth their poisons and thou
sands of casks of liquor are sent into
the great, darkened continent to bar
the way to Christianity. China
is lying prone with her face in the
dust crying out to US to help her, but
for every apostle of Christ we send
her, we send her thousands Of drunk
ards, and for every missionary Eng
lands sends, she sends thousands of
opium fiends. = It is just the
same in the great dark continent of
Africa--it is just the same wherever
WESTERN civilization has penetrated. 1t
is great work, that of Christianizing
the benighted nations, and the greatest
portion of it, my friends, is the task
of fighting the evils we ourselves send
to them. Let us send up a
prayer for them, and for the brave
men and women who are struggling in
the work. for the world needs help, oh
so mach!"
Miss Ackermann spoke at much
greater length, appealing to her au-
dience in the cause Of temperance, and
relating many personal experiences in

man and Miss Murcutt go to Hilo,
where they will conduct a series OF
