burg county Jail and attempting its
capture. From o'clock Monday
morning until the hour of Monday
nights catastrophe the crowd surged
about the jail calling the militiamen
vile names, assailing them with stones
and berating the deputy sheriffs who
guarded the jail. At o'clock the mob
gradually became more and more ex.
cited, its manifestations Of uneasiness
more frequent and at 10 o'clock 1t was
seen that nothing could prevent an as.

RECEIVED EXTREME JUNCTION.
Leo Received It With His Usual
Camness.

Shortly after 10 o'clock at night the
pontiff received the extreme JUNCTION.
At 9 o'clock his condition seemed so
hopeless than only short time appar-
emily remained before he would glide
into his last sleep.
I At DR.. Lapponis initiative a hasty
consultation of the popes relatives,
Cardinal Rampolla and other ecclesi-
astics was held and it was decided
that extreme JUNCTION should be given.
The pontiff received the announce
ment with his usual calmness, and
though scarcely able to speak audibly
he said he knew his time had come
and he was ready to appear before the
sublime tribunal with full trust in Di-
vine mercy.
kilograms Received.
Mgr. Piffer, Pope Leos confessor, ad-
ministered the extreme JUNCTION and
when the ceremony was over, his holt
ness sank back on the pillow with APP
parent great relief that all was done
and that he was entering into rest aft
or his long pilgrimage. After the ad-
ministration of the viaticum, tele-
grams hoping for his recovery were
shown to the pope and he appeared to
be much gratified. One Of the strang-
est features in his condition is the in
terest the pope takes in kilograms in
quiring about his health. Monday,
having heard that a French woman
whom he had received in audience a
sage of sympathy, he asked to see the
dispatch, and when Mgr. Pifferi
brought It he was not satisfied with
looking at the message, but wished to
read 1t.

The High School Alumni.

For several years there has been a
consciousness among the High School
Alumni that the Alumni Association
"a not as active as it should be-.
Last fall this feeling resulted in the
formulating of great plans. which,
however, miscarried. Nevertheless,
more activity was shown last winter
than for some time. Two benefit en-
tertainments were given. But neither
Of these were very successful, owing
largely to the inertia and Indifference
of the alumni. Next year it is hoped
that what was begun this year will
be carried into execution and that
the feeling Of loyalty and gratitude
will be sufficiently awakened among
the alumni to arOuSe united and
unanimous activity. But the great
event each year is the June banquet
and reception to the graduating class.
Then, under one roof, at one table
gather graduates covering over II
years. These occasions are always en-
joyed, reawakening the memories of
old delights and adding new. Even
these occasions have not been at
tended as universally as would be
expected; some former graduates
Lave ceased to manifest their inter-
est; some more recent graduates have
not yet begun. There are over a
hundred alumni in the city and every
one ought to be at least at these an
nual gatherings. Let all. old, med
iaeval. and new graduates make an
i%rrevocable resolution to attend this
year. Go to the preliminary business
meeting and then 60 to the reception.

A PRELIMINARY MEETING
Mission Meeting Held Monday Even.
ing as the First of the Edu-
catiOnal Convention.

Monday evening the preliminary
gathering of the Methodist Educa-
tional convention was held in the
church. The rain Of the afternoon
and the threatening weather prev
ious to the meeting kept many away,
and as q consequence there was not a
very laige attendance. 1t was a mis-
sion meeting Of the Sioux Falls and
Mitchell districts and was of an in
teresting character. Presiding Elder
Hager had charge Of the services,
which were opened with a season OF
song The speaker of the evening
was Presiding Elder E. p. Hall, of
the Aberdeen district, whose dis
curse related to the mission work,
which he declared to be heroic
Christianity. Out Of the great mass
OF Christian thought the c%entral..idea
of Christianity is that man is the
child of God. Everything starts from
that point and eventually works back
to it. Concerning the self-sacrifice
and the heroic Christianity that one
takes Oh in mission work he cited
the illustration Of a woman whose
character was pure and her life con-
secrated. who gave up everything to
90 to some foreign field and take III a
life among the most wretched of peo-
pie, living in an atmosphere of ignor-
ance and depravity Of the worst
type. Mr.. Hall wondered if a woman
did not have every essential Of heroic
Christianity TO take upon herself such
a burden in practically giving Der life
for the bctterment Of humanity. 1t
is a moral daring which a missionary
faces and it demonstrates a courage
that the bravest man can do. In
speaking of the field for missionary
work he said it was here, yonder,
everywhere, and wherever men are
there Gods men and women go.
Speaking Of the possibility of the
union Of forces Of Russia and China
he declared that with their millions
of armed men they could land on the
shores Of this country and do meal
culable damage. He said that the
way to prevent any such possible at
tack IN the.future was to Christianize
these nations that. are now in SEMI
darkness, and with religion instilled
thoroughly into their beings such
possibility Of warfare would forever
be allayed. He spoke with some
alarm on the matter of the great i'm
migration to our shores and wondered
If in the future these people would
foreignize US and we Christianize
them. In closing his address Mr..
Hall referred to the need Of money
for carrying on the work and made a
particularly strong appeal to the peo-
pie to make sacrifices in order that
this branch Of Christian work might
not be neglected.
