When you read in your morning
paper of fisherman run down and
sunk in the treacherous fog-shrouded
waters off Georges do you even for a
moment regard the matter as one
which in the least concerns your per-
sonal well-being, Or simply pass 1t off
as one of those happenings over which
you have no control, or as something
to be taken as a matter of course and
to be Immediately forgotten? If you
do there are scores of homes in the
fishing towns all along the coast of
the Bay state where the news which
interests you for the moment only
comes with tragic force to people in
whose life tragedy plays q far too
prominent part.

Flowing through the fog-enshrouded

Some Beautiful Thoughts.

The funeral of the late A. D. Searl.
the eccentric agnostic who has gain
ed considerable notoriety here
abouts, took place on Wednesday
under the auspices of the local Grand
Army post, says correspondent at
Leadville, Colo. Mr.. Searl, who was
one Of the pioneers of the Leadville
district, made q special request that
no religious exercises be held at his
funeral, but he himself prepared and
had read remarkable address touch
ing on his own peculiar religious be-
lief. In it he said:
II have long been convinced that
all religions are of human origin and
frauds that only gain credence
through ignorance and superstition.
>" l may say that a flute is
an instrument of material organiza-
ton. Its capacity for music or its
tone is its soul, and though its tone
and its capacity for music ceases
when the material flute is destroyed.
still the effect of that music, which
it discoursed while the instrument
was in existence, still goes on Great
ing, forming and molding thoughts,
feelings and actions in those who
have heard it. And so ON forever
every act of our lives, every word we
speak, every thought we think has it's
unending Influence in the endless
chain of cause and effect that binds
and governs the universe"
Among other thoughts contained in
MIR. Searl's address were these kindly
utterances:
$50 the great sea of human thought
and emotion has been moved by our
acts, thought or words and can never
again be exactly what it would have
been without our influence that we
exert in the world in the effect that
we produce in persons and things
about us, and thus the great mass of
will be happy or miserable
in the future, according as our
thoughts. and deeds have been good
or bad.
Friends and loved ones pass away,
but they leave their spirits with us
in the memory of what they were
and in the influence they have shed
around them. The little child that

but leaves behind in the mothers
heart a sacred memory that will

Rcter. Nature has imbued in all Or

it otherwise we wouiu make no strug-
gle to preserve it, and out of this love
Of life and instinct for it's preserva-

He Was a Good Man.

From the Loyeland Reporter we
clip the following notice of the death
of Ira W. Clapper. former resident Of
this vicinity. Mr. Clapper held a
homestead l6 miles southeast of Jules
purg in Perkins county. Nebraska. and
resided there until about ; years ago
when he moved to Windsor, Colorado.
He will be remembered by many Of
the older residents of this locality:
Ira W. Ciapper i dead,
Mr. CIapper was born in Washing
ton. Iowa, February -. IS5s-and was
married in that town to Miss Letitia
y. Porter on January -, 1854. He and
his family resided in their home town
till Sc, when they removed to Ne
bra>ka-and later on to Windsor, Col
orado.
The family have been residents
here about six yearS-and had a pleas
ant home on the west side-wherc his
widow and three sons now reside-and
where the entire family have made
many friends. Mr.. Clapper'S death
resulted from an attack OF measles on
Friday, July is.
The deceased was an excellent man
in al ways. Nothing more need be
Said-tor that embraces the rest.
He had been a mem Der of the Unit
ed Presbyterian church for about four
years-and the funeral services were
conducted al his late home on SUNDAY
afternoon By Rev>. y W. Jami>un and
W. H. McCreers. The remains were
inferred in Lakeside cemetery. The
funeral sermon text was the 37th verse
OF the 3..th Psalm: Mark the perfect
man and behold the upright: for the
end Of -sat man is peace Among
other things the pastor said tnat his
memory viii ever be cherished by his
life companion anu their three boys a.
being peculiarly tender and devoted
IL his family. His effort was to 50
live that he would owe no man any
thing save to love one another. He
closed his life at peace with himself:
at peace with his fellow men:at peace
with his God
