A SPLENDID LECTURE.
Rev. Vaughn Speaks to a,Large House
on Shakespeare.

From Saturdays Daily.
The lecture on Shakespeare, given
last evening at the opera house by Rev.
Mr.. Vaughn of Eau Claire, Wis, was
listened to with the closest attention by
a large audience. Rev. Vaughn is an ex
cellent speaker, and his lecture last
evening was certainly worth going a
long ways to hear. He quoted literally
from different works of the great play
wright, and his impersonations were
splendid, especially in the chapter of
Shylock.
The lecture was given under the aus
pieces of the Cathilic Order of Fores-
tiers, and the speaker was introduced by
City Recorder Hodapp.

From Saturdays Daily.
The funeral of the late Rev. Carl f.
Schulze, for twenty years pastor of the
German Lutheran church, took place this
afternoon at two o'clock from the church.
The large church was scarcely able to
hold the concourse of people that assem-

the departed. The services were of a
most impressive nature. The floral offer
ings were many and beautiful. A long
line of carriages followed the remains
to the grave.

SENATOR TALBOT DEAD.

SENATOR TALBOT DEAD. u
At tho home Of his grand-daugh.
ter, Mrs. Thos. Grigg, Shathcarrol,
ASA, Hon., Freeman Talbot breath
ed his last on tie evening Of Friday
Nov. 20, at the ripe age Of % years
2 months and Is days. Having sun-
cred for months with cancer death
came as y happy release. Great
strength of body and mind served
him to the end and as q man of
sterling character and great ability
he could we'll be called q ''Grand
Old Man. - ''@-~' ~
Born at Tipperary, Ireland, in
1911, he emigrated when but 2 years
old with his fathers family to Lon
don, Ont. There he lived tor 80
years during which time he helped
in the upbuilding of Ontario as far
mer, editor and engineer Of public
works. He also served his coun-
try during the rebellion of 1887,
being the holder of the first COM
mission ever issued by Queen Vic
toria. He was ever faithful in the
performance of his duties, fright"
ever being his watchword.
Having financial troubles, through
being too trustful of others, he left
Ontario and became pioneer of
Cleveland, MINI. There he lived
for another 80 years, respected by
all who knew nim. He never aspir-
ed to Office but once, when he was
unanimously chosen as Senator. In
that office his clear reasoning an
unbiased speeches decided many
debate.
In 1888 Mr.. Talbot Was married t,
Ann Eliza Clark, of London, Ont
to whom ten children we've born, on
ly three now surviving Mrs. WI
Hall, Headingiy, Man. BIC. Talbot,
Hazelton, N. D. and Mrs. F.. L. Jae'
ger, of Cleveland, MINI. There are
also a large number of grand-cbild-
rem and great grandchildren.
Since his wife's death, in 1889, he
has visited from place to place
with relatives and friends, receiv-
ing a warm welcome wherever he
went.
Those who watched by his bed
side and lovingly attended to his
wants, will feel q great loss, but will
obtain much comfort in knowing
that he was ready to meet his Saw
Jour, in whom he fully trusted. -

Mr.. Talbot is known to many Of
our citizens and was an old friend
of E.. r. Humiston.

On last Saturday evening the
members of the church and congre-
cation met at the NJ. E. Church to

family who have for so many years
been such active, members and
workers in the church. Rev. Kies

responsible position of Class Leader
and Sunday School Teacher for over
thirhteen years.
He has been most faithful to all

twenty a fire broke out in jenkins
and Kuhls pool room, completely
destroying the contents and render.
, ing tho building unfit for repairs.
The origin of tho fire is unknown.
The fire, it was said, was first seen
by mail carrier Lee Leonard, and
later by mail carrier Leslie Rippber-
ger who saw, it as he was coming out
Of the postoh1oe with his mail. He
ran down to the hose house and
turned in an alarm. Owing to it
being q cold morning the bell did not
not reach the ears of but very few
of the tiremen, but they were on the
ground in good time. The fire had
a good Roadway but was soon sub
dued. Humiston's machine building
caught fire, burning the window
casing and siding some, also got q
start on the inside but was prompt
~ taken care of. The loss to the
tenants is complete, amounting to
about two thousand dollars and no
insurance. The building belongs to
Wilson and Son. They had four
hundred dollars on one the burnt
most and five hundred on the other.
The latter can and will probably be
repaired. H..
During the fire serious accident
occurred. A hole had been cut in
the building to get a stream
through. Thos. Palmer went up
the ladder with the nozzle of the
hose, followed and assisted by Carl
Anderson Dave Anderson stood
at the footsof the ladder to prevent
it from, slipping, and John Bengston,
cabinet maker for CLANCY and Mac
kay, stood near. The hose got be.
yond Palmers' control and to save
himself from falling let go of the
nozzle striking Bengston OH the
head, knocking him senseless. He
was taken to physicians Office and
it was some time before he became
conscious. On examination, it was
found that his scalp was cut and bis
skull sustained slight fracture. One
of his eyes was badly injured in the
tall b. striking the side walk. Az
to low the injury will terminate it
is difficult to say at this time, but il
is hoped that it will not be fatal.
Supt. Buckan says the men were
unable to blow the whistle because
it was frozo up. Every effort pos
sible was made to use it but with
out effect. In his judgement whistle
was never put up right and he will
endeavor to putt IN proper condi.
ton az soon as possible. He saye
no blame can be attached any en-
ploye for failure to use this alram.
MIR. Bengston is member of the
fire department and they will render
what assistance they can.

The need of the sprinkling cart has been most forcibly illustrated during the past number of days and much has been said because of it's non-ap- pearance. The gist of the matter is that many abundantly tble to pay and there was, very little money in running the cart. The prospects of having the cart in commission this season are now much brighter by req son of the action taken by the Village Improvement society at their meeting.
 This vote was passed at the meet ing: That the Village Improvement society undertake to secure pledges for the funds necessary for the main- tenance of street sprinkling from May 1 to October 1, 1903, and the collecting of the same.'

Declaration of Independence. But this way of looking at the matter is purely modern, and in its origin purely Amer ican. When Washington during his presidency saw new states come into the Union on a footing of complete equality with the old, every European nation which had colonies still admin isteTed them as dependencies, and every other mother country treated the col as a subject.
 The process which we began has since been followed by all the great peoples who were capable both of expansion and of self-government, and now the world accepts it as the natural process, as the rule; but century and quar- ter ago it was not merely exceptional;
 it was unknown.
 This, then, is the great historic sig nificance of the movement of continen- tai expansion in which the Louisiana Purchase was the most striking single achievement. It stands out in marked relief even among the feats of nation Ul plOIISGIS, WuOSC pCOplV ioN V from the beginning been picked out by | a process of natural selection from
 among the most enterprising individu- als of the nations of western Europe. The acquisition of the territory is 8 credit to the broad and far-sighted statesmen to whom it was immediately due, and above all to the aggressive and ,c,,J aP a,Ix ,N,n neer folk to whose restless energy these | statesmen gave expression and direc- l tion, whom they followed rather than i led. The history of the land com prised within the limits of the purchase 1 is an epitome of the entire history of
 our people. Within these limits we I have gradually built up state after
 state until now they many times over i surpass in wealth, in population, and in
 many-sided development, the original l thirteen states as they were when their delegates met in the Continental i Congress. The people of these states 1 have shown themselves mighty in war
 with their fellowman, and mighty in | strength to tame the rugged wilderness | They could not thus have conquered
 the forest and the prairie, the mountain
 and the desert, had they not possessed
 the great fighting virtues, the qualities
 which enable a people to overcome the
 forces of hostile men and hastile na-
 ture. On the other hand, they could not have used alright their conquest
 had they not in addition possessed the | qualities of self-mastery and self-re-
 straint, the power of acting in combi-
 nation with their fellows, the power ot yielding obedience to the law and of
 building up an orderly civilization | Courage and hardihood are indispensa- 1 ble virtues in a people; but the people
 which possess no others can never rise 1 high in the scale either of power or of culture. Great peoples must have ir | addition the governmental capacity
 which comes only when individuals full.

 and to the whole body polite, and are

 and effective administration.

 their incredible toll and, their wild half ! savage romance. But the need for the
