Death of Mrs. William Gill.

Died in Cottage Grove, Mimi,
Thursday morning, April 25, 1901,
Louisa Marion, wife Of Rev. William
Gill of this city and for twelve years
from 1862 pastor of the Congregation
al church.
Mr.. Gill, who had been seriously ill.,
went to Cottage Grove about three
weeks ago to be treated by DR.. Steen,
Ian old-time friend. Mrs. Gill ac-
companied her husband, and while he
regained his strength she was strick-
en- with pneumonia and passed away
in little over week. She was con-
scious, and true to herself, solicitous
for others up to the very last mo-
ment.
The deceased was the daughter OF
Aquila and Ann Becraft, and was
born in Bourbon county, Kentucky,
Feb. IS, 1881, her parents moving to
Jacksonville, H., during her early
childhood. She graduated from two
colleges, one in Jacksonville, H., and
one In Cincinnati, Ohio. MI. Gill be-
ing student in the Illinois college
met her in Sunday school work, the
acquaintance resulting in their mar
riage, Oct. 20, 1868, Mr.. Gill then be-
ing in the second year of his pastorate
at River Falls. This was their first
parish. Their first home was In part
Of the present residence of President
Brier. When Mr.. Gill started after
his bride, Deacon Burr, who knew the
errand the pastor was on, remarked
that he trusted he had "left for
good" No wish was more royalty
fulfilled. A dozen or more are still
here who were in the Bible class she
conducted for years in the old Acad-
envy. They, with many more here
and in other parishes, will always
treasure the memory of her gentle
and faithful instructions. She had
rare skill in winning people, not only
to herself, but to the Christian life,
one Of her pupils making the sugges-
tive remark: "Mrs. Gill led me into
the Christian life 50 that enjoy II"
For thirty-two years she was devot-
ed and unremitting in her home and
parish duties, spending with her hus-
band twelve years ia River Falls, Wis.
seven In Mantoryille, Mimi, one in
Alexandria, Mimi, five in Cottage
Grove, Mimi, two in Glyndon, Mimi,
and five in Roberts, New Richmond
and Kinnickinnic, Wis, the last few
years being restfully spent In the old
home on fourth street, this city.
The funeral was held In the Congre-
gational church on Sunday afternoon,
the expression Of the many who were
present being voiced by the pastor;
"Give her the fruit OF her hands, and
let her own works praise her in the
gates" Prof. Herbert Gill Of Mon
tana College at Bozeman, with his
wife arrived Saturday D. m, and will
remain until next week, when Mr..
Gill goes back to his school duties re-
turning here after the middle Of June
to spend the summer with his wife
and father The other son, VIM. H.
Gill, is in Honolulu, and was unable
to be present at the funeral.

The impression throughout the coun-
try, says the Kansas City journal, is
that Mrs. Nation Is a wild, fanaticaI
temperance agitator whose zeal has run
away with her discretion. But those
who are acquainted with her and with
the Kansas situation say there is me-
thod in her madness. Her purpose, it
seems, is not merely to destroy little
saloon property. She desires to test
the right of liquor sellers in Kansas to
the protection of law for their saloon
merchandise and fixtures. Her attor-
neys were surprised and disappointed
that the previous case against her was
dismissed. They had prepared for a
full trial of the case on ITS merits, and
expressed confidence in their ability to
win.

How is this for young America? Mr.
A. A.Stagg, Jr., aged eighteen months,
son of the great Yalensian who IS now
physical director of the University of
Chicago, is already wearing athletic
glories. He pulls himself on the hori-
zontal bars, he treads the horizontal
ladder undauntedly, he runs foot races
with papa. So the race of mighty Yale
men thriyes and repeats with infant
lips the bright prophecy:
''And he shall beat the Harvards
AS his daddy used to do"

letic achievement and instinct comes

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION

President Henry s. Hertzog, LID,
of the Clemson Industrial College in
South Carolina, IN a carefully written
article 10 the Baltimore Manufacturers
Record takes the position that while in
some quarters there IS need of the
scholar IN politics, the greatest need of
the South today is the scholar IN prac-
teal life After referring to the con-
dition of education in the South, DR.
Hertzog says
The greatest need of the South to-
day is the scholar in practical life, We
need more twentieth century education
for the twentieth century.
80 achieve industrial success two
| factors are necessary:
q. The country must have natural
resources.
$50. There must be skilled labor to
develop the natural resources.
"a statistical array of the resources
of the South reads like chapter from
the Arabian Nights There are Klon-
dykes of wealth in its mountainous re-
gions, million of acres of virgin timber
on it's plains, inexhaustible coal beds
and iron beds In close proximity in
short, no other portion of the United
States has anything like the natural
wealth of the Southern states.
"Why have other less favored Sec
tions surpassed rs in the race for IN
dustrial supremacy 1t is because we
have devoted ourselves exclusively to
making and selling raw products Such
work does not demand skilled labor or
technical training We have been liv-
by our muscles, and not by our brains.
Permit me to illustrate: The stu
dents of the textile department in
Clemson College are learning how to
make fancy weaves
''South Carolina produces annually
800, 600 bales of cotton, which, at : cents
pound, is worth SOS, 100000.
That crop of cotton made into
fancy twills would bring $500, 600, 600.
cor made into mercerized cotton fig
ures would bring 500, OOO,O
cor made into imitation swivel silks
would bring 100000
Now, why not manufacture our
staple crop into finished goods. The
raw products are close to the mills; we
have a conservative laborlng element;
the climatic conditions are unexcelled;
we have an abundance of water power,
and the people of the South have an
inherited genius for managing large
0ub6f pflS6S,
cone thing is lacking We need
more education along industrial and
chronological lines. The main object
of such training is to apply science to
the material interests of man. The
object is to combine knowing and do
ing-to teach common sense in sys-
tematic manner It would not have us
take less interest in the past, but mole
IN the living, throbblng present It
would not have us know less about
the aqueducts of Rome, but more about
the water supply of New York
