In connection with this meeting there
was some talk OF the 'deadbeat" who tries
to defraud Masons or Masonic bodies. There
mas been no attempt made on the Omaha
society this year. but last year two or three
to secure funds by palming
themselves on as members Of the society.
1t was the opinion Of the members that
the plan now in operation in the United
States for the detection and prosecution OF
frauds had made the business so unproht-
able that the Masonic fakir is practically a
thing OF the past.

An Art Exhibit.

Within the past few years educat-
ors throughout the country have come
to realize the value of art as an aid in
education. To teach the child to see
and appreciate beauty is to lay the
foundation for good taste and higher
moral character. One of the first
steps in this process is to place be-
fore the children on the walls of our
school rooms pictures that have an
artistic value. While we cannot have
the original masterpieces, the modern
methods of picture making enable JUS
to have splendid reproductions of the
best pictures in the world at a nominal
cost. But since school districts do
not provide funds for school room
decoration it is necessary for those
who are interested in this side of ed
u~cation to raise the money from other
sources. One means to this end is to
give an Art Exhibit.
The Beard Art and Stationery COM
pany of Minneapolis have kindly
agreed to send a collection of 200 pic
lures of various sizes and prices. An.
admission of ten cents will be charged
and all money SO raised will be used
for the purchase of pictures for the
High school. This will afford the
people of our city an opportunity to
see for a few cents some of tho finest
pictures in the world and at the same
time to help in the beautifying Of our
schools.
The exhibition will open Friday af-
~ternoon, April IL, and will continue
through Friday and Saturday. The
place is the store room on the north
side of the square, formerly occupied
by Joeckel Bros, who have kindly al
lowed free use of the room.

DEATH CLAIMS
PRETTY BRIDE
Mrs. Perry @. Walker Dies
Suddenly at Patch Grove.
RESULT OF OPERATION
Wedding Gown Becomes a Funeral Stroud
And a Young Life Ends
Suddenly.

Sad indeed was the untimely death
of Mrs. Perry G. Walker at the home
of her parents near Patch Grove Sat-
urday night at tan O'Clock.
The Herald last week chronicled
the marriage of Perry G.. Walker and
Miss Daisy E. Ball, which took place
at Patch Grove Wednesday, the End
inst. On the Monday preceding her
wedding day the bride was taken Ill
and some thoughts of %postponiDg the
event were entertained by her family
and friends. The idea did not meet
with her wishes, however, and at her
request the wedding came off as
planned and was as merry as such oc-
casions usually are. After the ex-
element produced by the event had
passed and the guests had departed
the bride became suddenly i'll and a
relapse was imminent, Bloomington
physicians were called and every
measure known 10 the skill Of the
of the medical profession was adapted
to provide relief. Every effort seemed
fruitless and On Friday a counsel was
held and an operation decided upon.
From the effects of this the young
bride never recovered and surrounded
by members of the grief-stricken circle
who loved her so dearly she passed
away without regaining consciousness
or recognizing those about her.
Daisy E. Walker was born in Little
Grant seventeen years ago and had
always resided in Grant county. Pos
sessing many of the good qualities
and of a most amiable disposition she
made a host Of friends and was held
in high esteem in the community in
which she resided. Her sudden and
unexpected death was a great shock
not only to the young man who owned
her as a bride for a few hours, and
to the family, hut to all whom she
had known. The festivities of the
wedding day had hardly passed away
when the church bells tolled her flu
neral knell and there was not a dry
eye at the sad rites attendant upon
the funeral obsequies that were con-
Quoted at the home on Monday at
which Rev. ~Schoenfeldt officiated,
assisted by Rev. Verran.
A large gathering of friends paid
respect to their young friend and the
services were decidedly impressive.
The young husband and the be-
reaved parents, five sisters and a
brother have the sympathy of all in
their hour of extreme sorrow.

High School Notes.

The Athletic Association last week
elected the captain and manager OF
the base ball team for this year.
Clarence Suttle as captain and Newell
Garner as manager. 1t will be a first
class team and issues it's challenge
which is open to any high school
team in the state.
The Seniors held a class meeting
on Thursday evening Of last week. A
committee was appointed olook after
programs, as graduation time is near.
The Art Exhibit promises to be
something good. AS it is not often
that the Lancaster public gets such a
good opportunity to see fine dupli-
Gates of great pictures, the exhibit
ought to be well pa~tronized. 1t will
be held in Joeckel Bros. late store
building April II and II.
The much talked of trisection of an
angle has been accomplished by a boy
of the Junior class. The trisection oil
the angle did not come by chance,
but was the result of long and earnest
study. This young man deserves
much praise and encouragement.

MISS CHAFEE rs DEAD.
Succumbs After Brief Illness at Hel
Home at Grand Central.

Miss Ellen B. Chaffee passed peace
fully to her rest at the Grand Central
hotel on Saturday afternoon at 1850
o'clock.
She had been declining IN health
for a period exceeding a year but not
until two weeks ago vas it so marked
as to excite comment and cause
alarm. She was a woman of tremen-
dous will power and in obedience to
it's mandates refused to go to bed un-
til so weakened that it became an alb
solute necessity. Her stomach re-
fused to perform it's functions and
without nourishment the disease
greatly impaired and weakened her
constitution, and she succumbed to
the inevitable on Saturday afternoon.
On Saturday evening her body was
removed to the home of DR.. G.. G.
NARROW where it remained until the
day of the funeral.
Loving friends by tender ministries
anticipated her every wish and kind
ly cared for her. Although no i'm
mediate relative was present no one
could have better treatment in sick
ness. The Word of God which had
been her stay and support for many
years was read to her and proved as
so often before the one reliable source
of comfort and consolation.
She had been a successful teacher
for many years and gave up her
chosen vocation some years ago to be
at home and care for her aged pa
rents. On March End, 1851, she
united with the Congregational
church of Lancaster on confession of
faith, so that for 81 years, l month
and 3 days she was a faithful mem
Der of the church. Her pastor, the
Rev. T. j. Brown, epitomized On the
words, ''This Woman was full OF
Good Works." Interment took place
at Burton on Monday afternoon.
