Obituary.

Again 1t has been the will of our
Heavenly Father to visit our com
munity on Sunday, April 10TH, 1902,
and take from our midst, to her
heavenly home above, our be
loved friend and sister, Matte M
Hess.
The deceased was united In mar
rage to George W. Hess, at the
Wells Hotel, April IS, 1901, having
lived only short time to enjoy her
married life, which was full of hap
piness and contentment.
Matte leaves a husband, George
w. Hess, father and mother, MI
and Mrs. David Danser, and two
sisters, Maggie and Mollie, and
many friends to mourn the loss, but
we can console ourselves with the
thought that our loss Is her ever
lasting gain.
Matte was a member of the
Christian Endeavor Society at
Little, where she will be much
missed from our circle, but let as
all strive, as true Endeavorers, to
meet her In that home above where
parting with friends Is unknown.
The bereaved family have the
sympathy of the entire community
In their sad Bereavement.
The deceased died at the age of
rs years and II days and up to her
death enjoyed the blessing of good
health.
The attending doctors. E. M.
Sellers and c. B. Hitchcock, did
all that skilled and sympathetic
physicians could do to save her
life, but to no avail. Gods will be
done, not ours.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted by Rev. Westfall &C the

After SO years of welded life,
gone are the brown locks, the rose
bloom, the quick step of youth.
But maturity may be beautiful.
Age does not always mean weak
ness. Although as l sit mus'ng
over the present and past the future
seems to dawn most impressively
upon my mind, and although we
have many golden days, the GOLDEN
wedding day seems to crown them
all. True 1t is, few are permitted
to stand SO years side by side,
through sunshine and cloudy wealth.

parent, have their silver lining, to
be seen on this side or the other.
Fifty years ago were golden da, S,
hopeful days, looking olt upon the
wide, wide world. strong, youthful,
not stopping to think of the swift
flight OF time that surely waits Tor
no man. The dawn OF morning,
how beautiful; but at the close Of
evening, how sublime. At middle
age one Is more incliued to stop
and look upon the golden moments
as they swiftly glide by and are lost
to Our sight forever Make use of
the golden days; have them count
for something. A kind word or
deed given In need Is golden; a
crown with just one star will look
bright. The little things are what
console ana o lfort us.
A golden wedding In which l
was one of the happy number of
IS children and grandchildren. left
a marked imprt ssion upon my
mind that marriage Is not
a failure, but a divine blessing, a
chain of golden links welded by an
unseen hand. What pleasure to
looA back upon a well-spent life,
look into the faces that were once
SO weak ard innocent, now grown to
manhood and womanhood; these
are golden moments. What Is more
beautiful than the autumn OF life?
There Is something that appeals to
that side of mans nature, that
springtime, with It's buds and bios
SONS, and full-foliaged summer
with Its wreath of woodland music,
Its langors, and its lilies, cannot
surpass; 1t Is a time of rest and
thankfnllress. The father and
mother sitting In their home say.
1T Is life's autumn with u.s." These
are golden days, restful days; pure
gold of honest hearts, rried through
a long life. Presently the snow
will come, and we shall be folded
away, but not to sleep always. A
golden crown, a grand awakening;

Adirondack Guide Perished Yn the
 f.eeefst TcrribIe storm.
 MALONE. \. Y., Feb. 5.-William Martin a well known Adirondack guide, lost his life in the great storm of Sunday night. In company with Edward Rork, Martin started from Me Eollum's Sunday morning to go to Mad awaski, distance of five or six miles, intending to return Monday. After nearly reaching their destination Rork was taken seriously ill, and the two men found shelter in an old camp.
 Martin started back to McCellum's for help. About this time the storm was raging furiously, and he evidently. lost the trail The men not returning Monday, searchers, headed by McAr- thur, started out Tuesday in search of them. The searchers found Rork try ing to work his way home through snow three feet deep, but greatly ex- hausted and with his feet and hands badly frozen. Sending him on home with others, MeArthur went on in search of Martin, whose body was found Un Lake Madawaski completely buried in snow, except that one mitten and part of one foot were visible.
 Both Maftin and Rork were thorough woodsmen and under ordinary condi- tions would have experienced no diff culty in taking care of themselves. Martin evidently became lost on the lake in the blinding storm and wan dered about until he dropped.
