Walters. Addison, who "satirized
the follies attacked the vices and
pictured the manners of his times"
has a line of present day descendants.
Mr.. Dooley and McCutcheon, the
artist, each in his respective
way, is Modern Spectator. In clos
ing Miss Walters said: "Some Of
the comments Of our spectators are
made upon topic Of current inter-
est, and yet they bring out the uni
versal truths of human nature. They
help us to realize where we are pet
ty, where as individuals or as ma
tions we are actuated by vanity or
greed and have lost sight of the lar
ger, nobler issues~of life. The les
sons they teach are not less valuable
because presented in an interesting
and amusing way, Much of this
work will pass, some will endure,
but none Of it is lost, insomuch as it
helps to guide human beings, wheth-
er Of one generation OF Of many, in
the ways Of truth and justice"
"The Loyalty of Scottish Poets
was subject most aptly chosen by
one who is herself descendant Of
Scottish ancestry. Miss Bessie
Heath began with a comparison of
the writings Of Scotland's sons be-
fore and after the time of Burns.
The earlier literature from the pens
though it was of many and brilliant
writers bears a spirit of generality"
and is not truly Scottish" while
with the beginning of the Robert
Burns period the literature of his
country teens with ''homely domes-
tic subjects" The descriptions OF
the writings of both Burns and Scott
are Scotland descriptions, the char.
acters are Scottish men and women
and the ceremonies, rude sacrifcia
orgies" and the assembling Of thu
warrior clans as learned from thes.
writers were strongly dwelt upon b,

A June Bride.

A marriage which came as a sur
prise to the many friends of the
bride in this city was that of Monday
when Miss Irene Jones, the eldest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Josiah
Stephen Jones, was united in the
holy bonds of wedlock with Mr..
John Nuzum Bonnell of Springfield,
Illinois.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. III. w. Tuttle of the Congrega-
tional church at the beautiful Jones
home just north of Manchester at
High Noon, only the immediate
members of the family being pres
ent, and their invitations coming
they supposed because of the day
being the twenty eighth anniversary
of the marriage of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jones.
Miss Jones has grown up from
childhood a member of this COM
munity. She attended our public
schools, graduating flam the High
School with the class olslS95. Lat
er she attended the Iowa State Col
lege at Ames completing the English
course with the degree Phi. b.
Since 1900 she has been an assistant
principal in the Manchester High
School, teaching higher mathema-
tics. Her reelection to this position
by the Board Of Directors at their
meeting some weeks ago speaks
more highly than our words can of
her successin the school.
In the social life of Manchester
she has always been favorite, hei
womanly qualities, charming charac-
ter and wide reading making 70,
her friends everywhere. She will
be missed from this circle as we'll as
from among the coterie of teachers
Mr.. Bonnell is not at all known III
Manchester, the courtship leading
to this marriage began in college
friendship at Ames. 1t is safe t.
assert, however, that Miss Jones has
chosen well.
The young couple left Monda,
evening for Davenport where they
visited a day with the groom's rela.
tives, leaving later for Springfield
where Mr.. Bonnell has responsible
position as electrician. They vii
be at home at 1925 South Seconc
Street, Springfield, Illinois, and the
best wishes and heartiest congratula
tons of community of friends vii
follow Mrs. Bunnel and extend tt
all whom size may honor with he,
! regard.

day Night, that beautiful homely
poem, was tenderly touched upon
as was also the distinctly musical
dialect element in his poems and
thus it is she said I'VE perceive the
spirit Of loyalty of Scottish poets: in
their love fol their native scenery;
in their tales of the Highland chief
and the lowly peasant; and in their
use of the Scotch dialect, creating a
musical quality which will continue
to appeal to sill classes of people till
the end of time"
Miss Ellen Johnston in 1.-The Mis-
sion of Scott" classified the writers
of the worlds history according to
their purpose and then succinctly
traced the genius Of Sir Walter Scott
in his character and in his works.
What, then, was SCOTS great mis-
sion?" asked Miss Johnston, aud
answered, 1T was to charm the read
er with the greatest variety of plots
and characters that any one writer
has ever given us. 1t was to paint
the deeds Of the heroes and heroines
! of the past so wildly that the reader
can fairly see the gallant heroes GO
ing upon strange and thrilling ad-
ventures to rescue their lady loves
from the power Of deep dyed vii
lains." His was the mission and
most successfully performed, as
Miss Johnston said, ito please all
ranks and classes of people, that is,
to entertain"

Possibilities of War.

London, Jan. 14.-Interest in the far
East today centres on Japan's reply to
Russia's proposals, and the spirit in
which the reply will be taken by the
Gar and his advisers II is not known
whether the japanese reply has yet
been handed to Baron De Rosen, the
Russian Minister at Toxic, MOI is it
officially known what the text or spirit
of the reply will be, but it is generally
believed that the japanese states
men have decided to 60 rs far as they
can to make it possible for the negoti-
ations to have a peaceful outcome. The
Birmingham Post today states that it
has excellent authority tbatinquiries have
been made by the United States at the
British Foreign Office with a view to as
certaining how far England will assist
in the enforcing of the terms of the
China-American commercial treaty in
the event of opposition being offered by
Russia or wal breaking out and thus
preventing IN early opening Of the ports
named in the treaty.
Yokohama, Japan, Jan. l4.-The
Japan Times today prints an editorial
decidedly warlike in tone. The paper
says in part: 'The nation is ready.
The nation yearns for action. We sin
cerely hope the Imperial Government
will not betray the grave responsibility
with which a unique conjunction of cir
cumstances has invested it,"
London, Jan. 14.-The possibility Of
mediation in the far East has caused an
improvement on all the markets today.
Consols, the pivotal barometer, opened
higher and advanced further TO esq bid.
japanese and Russia securities have adj
vanced a point and Americans are high
er on improving business.
Toxic, Jan. If "A high japanese
government official said today that
in official circles it was believed
that war with Russia would be
ultimately ayeIted. 1t is said that
negotiations have now reached a point
where a peaceful or hostile settlement is
only a few days off. If Russia insists
on her neutral zone demand, war is in
evitable. If she abandOns it. peace is
practically assured. 1t is believed that
Russia's reply will be couched in con-
ciliatory language, and that war will be
ultimately averted.
