two years making a little over four

c CANDIDATE FOR
REGISTER OF DEEDS
Short Sketch Of Life History of Alexander d. Rogers Who
Is After the Office

Alexander Dealtry Rogers is the
candidate for register of deeds for this
county whose picture we present to
our subscribers as a supplement to this
issue. Mr.. Rogers is the present
deputy register and will be opposed
in the convention at Stambaugn today.
by VIM j. Brown. Mr.. Rogers was
born in 1853 in the British East
Indies OF English parents. his father
holding position as chaplin OF the
troops in India for twenty five years.
Young Rogers spent his childhood
days in the far East during the dis
turbing times Of the Indain mutiny
and he has many an interesting ac-
count to tell OF the happenings in that
country during those disturbing times
and Of the hardships that the English
endured. After peace was again
brougt about he, like the other children
of the English officers and trades people
in the Eastern possessions Of His Ma
iesty's government, was sent to En-
gland to be educated. He was placed
in school at Suffolk and given an exec l.
lent education and graduated from the
schools Of Suffolk at the age of six
teen.
London is to the English youth,
starting ont in the world. what Chicago
is to the American youth Of the West
or New York TO the young man Of the
East. All are anxious TO get TO Lon
don, believing that in the metropolis
there is "health and wealth for them
all And, it was so with young
Rogers as he passed over the threshold
of the Suffolk schools at the age of
sixteen. He had his eyes set on London
and to London he went He secured a
very desirable position ia the wholesale
tea trade He spent two years in the
service of this house and then with a
partner embarked in the tanning and
leather business He was quite sue
cessful in the leather business at first
and the firm branched out to Vienna,
Austria, Mr. Rogers going to the land
of Frans Joseph to look after the bus
mess there. Twenty three years he
spent in the leather business both in
London and Vienna and during the
period had formed business acauaint-
ances all over Europe.
But there were clouds ahead for the

Why am here. why am what
am whence l came and what is to be
my ultimate destiny If there be an pos
sible solution of these mysteries are
quite as important considerations as
that | am here. Whatever light the
mighty world making process, the
evoutions of the lower forms of life,
the forward march of civilization and
development Of the individual soul to-
wards higher life may throw upon
our problem should be hailed with
acclamation by every student Of the
truth. Life is not infancy nor yet
childhood nor youth nor manhood
nor old age. In it's true sense. in It's
noblest sense, the life Of man IS the
fusion of all these with broader ex
perience. deeper knowledge a higher
power than we can ever attain amid
the humiliahons of this world.
And the lesson Of life in the.worde
of Emerdson, is TO believe what the
years and the centuries have to say
against the hours TO resist the usurpa-
tion of particulars TO penetrate tc

a day of reckoning when minds which
have allowed the hours and moment:

RECEIVED HIGHEST AWARD
Gorham Mfg Co.,, Honored at the International Exposition of
 Decorative Art

New York Nov. 4-Cable advices re- ceived here today record yet another in-
 stance of success in the American inva-
 sion of Europe. It is. however, on this occasion not an industrial or commercial triumph alone, but an artistic one which
 Is so chronicled. The International Expo-
 sition of Decorative Art, under the pa-
 tronage of King Victor Emmanuel II, has,
 during the past summer, attracted to
 Turin not only the German Emperor, but
 thousands of visitors from the four quar-
 ters of the globe. This week the final awards of the judges in the various sec-
 lions were maSe known, and 1t appears Nthat in one department at least America
 has carried off the highest honors. The Gorham Mfg. Co. of New York has re-
 ceived the gold medal or the highest
 award bestowed on silverware for it's ex-
 hibit of finely wrought silver. The com petition between the nations was excep-
 tionally keen, England, Germany, Rus
 sia, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and France vieing with each other and with the United States to carry off the honors in every department of the Applied Arts. The Gorham exhibit included over a hun dred pieces, ranging from specimen forks and spoons to elaborate centerpieces and loving cups of Martele and Athenic ware. Combinations of silver and cut-glass were also shown, and it is said that the whole exhibit, which occupied one of the most prominent places in the building. was lit- tie short of a revelation to European art craftsmen. adv.
