advance its interests. In revival
meetings, especially, her personal
work and spoken testimonies were
most efficient. During all this time
she was in almost constant suffering
from bodily pain, having been an in
valid for upwards of thirty years.
Her cheerful and sunny disposition,
however, manifested itself even in the
midst of the most intense suffering,
and often, when scarcely able to
stand, she taught large classes in the
Sunday schools, addressed public
meetings, or sang the songs of Zion.
She possessed the poetic talent to a
high degree, many of the productions
of her pen having been published and
received with the warmest praise by
competent critics, though of late
years she had done very little of this
kind of work. owing to i'll health.
In her younger days she was much
sought after as a public singer, pos
sessing a soprano voice of unusual
compass and sweetness. In her char
acter in the home, in the church and
among friends she was absolutely
true to whatsoever things are hon
est, just, pure and lovely, and of good
report" Evil was abhorrent to her.
and there was no hesitating between
right and wrong. Her faith was sim
pie and unwavering, but comprehen-
sive as the promises of God. She had
memorized large portions of the
scriptures, and it's teachings and
promises were her constant strength
and comfort Although converted at

with the church until Is years later.
but never did she question the love of
her Savior, or cease to consider His
ways.
She was descended in direct line
from one of the proudest and most
powerful of the Scottish nobility.
She was also a lineal descendant of
Roger Williams, the founder of Rhode
Island, and closely related to the
English family of Youngs. of literary
fame. From these she inherited the
strong and resolute. spirit of the de-
tenders of political and religious lib
crty, ingrained with the poetic tenn
permanent of the literary genius.
Her last and fatal illness, rheuma-
tism, dates from about two years
ago. since which time she has suffer-
ed the most intense pain, with inter
walls of merely temporary relief. The
attack which resulted in her death
came on about four weeks ago. An
examination showed serious heart
trouble. and although everything was
done that medical science could sug-
gest or sliillful nursing accomplish.
the summons came. and the spirit re
turned to the God who gave it.

ACTIVITY AT STREET
RAILWAY CAR SHOPS

The Tri-City car shops have not
been turning out new cars as rapidly
as was done during the winter as the
preparation Of the open cars for the
summer service has taken considera-
bic time. No. 209 for the Fourth ave
nue. line is nearly ready and her trial
trip will be. made shortly. New roofs
have been placed in a number of the
open ears and are an improvement on
the old ones, showing the possibilities
of the construction department in
this line. Much of the Fourth ave
nue., Third avenue, Harrison street
and Central park summer equipment
has been thus improved and with re
painting make an appearance as good
as cars entirely new.

WAS WELL CHOSEN
Nomination of Hon. Guy C. Scott
for Supreme Bench Gen.
orally Approved.
WE'LL QUALIFIED FOR THE OFFICE
Is Widely and FavorabIy Known
Hon. e. w. Hurst Declined
Honor.

The nomination of Hon. Guy c.
Scott, of Aledo, for the place on the
supreme bench from the Fourth dis
trict, which action was taken by the
democrats in convention at Bushnell
yesterday, will be approved not only
by the democrats of the district, but
by many republicans who recognize in
him a lawyer Of ability and possessed
of the breadth of learning and the
personal qualifications to render him
an ornament to the supreme bench.
His Career.
Mr.. Scott is well known, not only in
this vicinity, but throughout the
state. He was born in Henderson
county, H., 10 years ago. He was adj
mitted to the bar in 1856 and has
since been engaged in practice at Ale
do. He has been successful in his
profession and his practice is one of
the best in the county. That he
stands high in the estimation of the
citizens of his nome town is evident
from the fact that, although Aledo is
strongly republican, he is now serving
his third successive term as mayor.
Six years ago he was a candidate
for circuit Judge on the democratic
ticket and carried his county, nomi-
nally republican by LOO, by 1000 ma
iority. He has always been a demo-
crat and was at one time a member
of the state central committee.
MT. Hurst Declined.
Hon. +. w. Hurst returned last ev-
ening from Springfield. at which place
he received the telegram asking him
if he would accept the democratic
nomination for supreme justice in the
Fourth district. Mr.. Hurst states
that while he appreciated the honor
of being mentioned in connection
with the Office he felt that other de
mands were such that it would be mad
visable for him to accept the nOmina
ton, and he accordingly telegraphed
to Bushnell to that effect.
