Obituary-George w. Garthwaite.

George w. Garthwaite was born in
Pitts burg, Pa, July "a, 1852, and died
at his home in Little Grant April 20,
1902, aged 40 years. 10 months and 5
days. He moved with his parents to
St. Louis where they resided for two
years, from which place they moved
to Little Grant where they have since
resided.
He was married to Miss Malinda
Cliff of Little Grant. Sep. 10, 1878,
who survives him. This marriage
was blessed with six sons, William,
Everett, Bertie, Claude, George Elmer
and Archie, all of whom are living
and at home except Claude, who died
in infancy. He leaves also to mourn
his departure four sisters and two
brothers, Mrs. Annie Poland, OF Avo-
ca, Ia; Alonzo Garthwaite. Of George,
Ia Mrs. Eta Goodrich, of Lancaster;
Mrs. Nell Carlisle, OF Walnut, la. ;
Mrs. Ida Judd, of Lancaster, and
Fred Garthwaite, of Mt. Hope.
He was man highly esteemed by
his neighbors; an unassuming
Christian man. He will be greatly
missed in the community. His in
huence still lives. He was true and
lasting friend, and a man faithful to
his marriage vows, ''to love and to
cherish till death do US part" and a
kind, wise and provident parent. He
loved his family and his was a true
home.
He was laid to rest at Little Grant
cemetery until Gabriel's trumpet
shall sound on the morning of the
resurrection. Rev. j. D. Blenkin-
sopp, OF Kewanee, Ill, officiated at
the services, preaching from CORN
thians, 10th chapter and goth verse.
May they, as family, be united on
Caanan's happy shore.

The Press Can Be Trusted.

eve recall an incident" says the
editor of lions Herald, of Boston.
(which occurred many years ago, and
which was very influential in helping
the writer to correct notions concern
ing the daily press. In private cir
Gle of friends, made up largely of min
listers, the daily newspaper became
the subject of conversation-main of
severe criticism and condemnation.
Among that company was an ex-gov-
ernor, man of large experience in
public life, able, honored and revered,
and familiar for so active years with
journalism. Finally, after patiently
listening to the criticisms, he said,
gently but firmly: Gentlemen, you
are mistaken. The public press is in
dispensable for the dissemination of
information and for the direction of
public opinion. In the main, it is right
and benefcent. It is almost miracu-
lous in it's alertness in going to the
bottom of things, and usually it iscor.

THE HOP CONGRESS.
Pages in the House of Representa-
tiyes Have "a Congress of Their
own Formation.

The bright youngsters who serve as
pages in the house of representatives
at Washington have formed what they
call the shop congress-" They call it
so because the members put in their
time during the sessions of the real
house hopping around from desk to
desk on errands for the legislators.
The chop congress" assemblies at $3.50
o'clock in the morning, before the gen
nine members are at their desks, and
it's deliberations are carried on with as
much dignity and precision as is the
real thing which assemblies at noon.
Page J. III. Holl;ngsworth, of New
York, is the speaker of the miniature
congress and he dispenses his rulings
from the chair which Speaker Hender-
son occupies later in the day. He en-
phasizes his remarks by pounding the
same marble slab that speaker Hen
derson pounds. Mr.. Payne's desk is
occupied by the chairman of the
junior ways and means committee and
Mr.. Dalzell's by the leader of the COM
mittee on rules. The pages have SER
geant-at-arms and clerk of the house
and recently legislation reached such
a stage that it was found imperative to
have Maj. Pruden to deliver mes
sages from the president.

The ideal industrial condition will

the rights of the workman as fellow

present energy and skill. They are
equally important and when in har-

GOOD THINGS GO BEGGING.
Some of the Great Inventions of the
Age Have Found But Few
Backers.

Washington is known as the abiding
place of men who have gone daft on
inventions and patents, and yet it is
astonishing to know by what narrow
margins some people escape making
fortunes, says the Washington Post.
Prof. Alexander Graham Bell tried
again and again to persuade Senator
Doh Cameron to buy for $4,000 a one
third interest in his telephone inven-
ton. Cameron thought Bell wild
dreamer, refused to put up a dollar,
and even went so far as to give orders
that the inventor should no longer be
admitted to his office. That one-third
interest is to-day worth not less than
$40, 100000. There were many long
and weary days that Prof. Bell scarce
ly knew where he was going to get the
money to carry through his inven-l
tions, and he haunted the hotel and
capitol Hobbies constantly, endeavor-
ing to get some one interested in what
he felt and knew would make fortunes.
There is scarcely day that some in
ventor is not haunting senators and
congressman with appeals to help
them get through some fortune-just-
insight patent, and the struggles
that Profs. Bell and Morse went
through in getting their inventions
before the public demonstrates the fact
that a good thing is about as difficult
to shove along as some worthless clap
trap.

Keen Sense of Smell.

One of the sorrows of childhood is
the slowness of some older people to
take hint. It is often quite a strain
on good manners to be obliged to reen-
force suggestion that should have
been adequate in itself.
A little girl, calling at a neighbours
house, sat near plate containing some
apple parings. At last, unable to keep
silence any longer, she said: ST smell
apples"
"Yes," returned her hostess, cts
those parings."
"No'm," said the little girl, solemnly.
ST smell whole apples. youths Com
