Educate To Live By Work,
Not By Wits.

We need to get our people back
to the idea that they must earn a !
living, not secured by doubtful
methods and modern tricks of
trade, says G. E. Vawter, OF the
Miller Manual School. Happy
will be our beloved South when
such schools of industry shall be
built up for all; when our young
men learn that the highest type
of manhood is shown in him who
by honest industry supply the
wants of himself and those depen-
dent on him. 1t is most lameD-
table fact that many, very many,
of our young men, after leaving
school, have no way of making a
living unless they 60 to teaching.
The result is that we have q very
large class of young men wait
| ing for something to turn up, who
think they are educated, who are
too proud to work and who are too
poor to live without work. The
few who succeed in getting an OF.
fee or winning place that pays
make the exception. The many
who must earn a livelihood by the
sweat of the brow make the rule.
Let us, then. educate the masses
so that they can the better gair
their living. Let this be the rule
the exception will take care OF it
self. With trained, educated
thinking, reading workmen, w
will have rich, prosperous coun
try, dotted all over with lovely
happy homes, with no place TO
the bar-room and the sgamblin
hell. Such q movement would In
deed be the greatest temperate
, work this country has ever known

Methodist Preacher I'm qua for
Refusing to Lfve with His Wife.

KEOKUK. Ia. Sept. 9th committee

aroused to-day by the sudden and unex-
pected presentation of the case OF Rev.
r. ]. Henness, one Of it's members now liv-
ing in South Dakota Mr.. Henness sep
arated from his wife during the last year
and refuses to state the reason. His wife
is here at the conference, often in tears.
and her husband will not speak to her.
Mr.. Henness tried TO nave the case ven-
tilated on the floor of the conference, but
Bishop Hamilton referred IL TO a trial by
a m of eleven members. with two
Judge advocates and two attorneys for
Henness. No question Of sexual morality
is involved Henness insisted that the trial
be open. but executive sessions were or
dered. Tonight a second bombshell was
exploded when friends OF Henness called
attention TO the fact that the case Is
parallel to that of one of the oldest bishops
of the church. They say that IL this con-
ference decides that refusal to live with
his wife is unclerical conduct, then the
Iowa Conference must memorabilia the
General Conference of the church to take
action on the case OF tha. bishop.

A BLACKsMITH's GOOD LUCK.


Byron c. Logan, a blacksmith living at
81 South Summit street.. is one of the
benefciaries of the will of w. S. Stratton,
the Colorado lti-millionaire, which was
admitted to probate yesterday. In the
testament Logan is mentioned as one of
the heirs and is bequeathed sic, 200.
Logan las lived in Indianapolis for the
last eighteen years, having moved here
from Jeffersonville, Ind. He is identified
with Republican politics in the East End
Of the city, having been committeeman
from his precinct for some time. He is
employed in a blacksmith shop, where he
is dependent on his wages for the support
or himself and family.
Logan says that he has been a friend of
Stratton during all his life. and that the
pie Creek discoverer started when hey
were children and lived within half a block
OF each other in Chestnut street. Jefferson
Vile. STATIONS father was In a shipyard
with the father of Mr.. Logan, William C.
Logan; the firm being known as Stratton
& Logan, Shipbuilders. When the two
boys became OF age, they worked in their
fathers shops and after they became men
were fast friends and associates.
When Stratton left Jeffersonville for
Colorado he still held the friendship of
strike on the Independence mine he
promptly received congratulatory mes
sages from the Logans. Rumors of his
becoming immensely rich reached Logan
after he moved to Indianapolis and the
friendship between the two men was un-
interrupted until the day of Mr.. STATIONS
death. They correspondent infrequently,
the last letter Mr.. Logan received having
been written In October last.
In 1896 Mr.. Logan was invited to visit
Stratton at his Colorado home, and while
spending a three weeks vacation there he
says he was royalty entertained and shown
all over the country by Stratton. On leav-
ing Colorado Stratton presented Mr.. Logan
with a handsome gold watch, inside of
which Is engraved a picture of the shaft
house of the Independence mine. In the
back of the watch is a card engraved, on
which is, wv. s. Stratton to b. C. Logan
1895" the date having been put I'm it on the
Christmas preceding Mr.. Logan's visit.
Mr.. Logan says he did not expect to re-
ceive anything from Stratton. and was
greatly shocked on learning of his death.
That he did think there might be something
done for him he says he will not deny, as
Stratton told him at one time that some
day there would be a draft sent to him. Mr..
Logan says the inheritance will come in
very handily for him.
