MIR. Jordan followed the healthful
pursuits of farming, and was by we'll
directed application, industry and econ
omy enabled to draw reasonably fair
remuneration from the fertile soil of
his adopted county.
In life, he was transformations and of
a retiring disposition, the seclusion of
domesticity being far preferable to him
than the excitement necessarily fol-
lowing active participation in matters
public or political. All through life
his habits were exemplary, his duly
observed precept being the Golden
Rule.
Every care and relief that affection
could prompt, or applied science has
disclosed, was given him, but the yiru-
lence of the disease, Bright's, aided by
old age, was too much for his once
robust constitution; and though dia-

preaching dissolution, was present
with him for three weeks prior to the
end, he awaited the result calmly with
fortitude and forbearance. And while
he has in fullness and in years more
than rounded out the biblical allotment
for the life of man, and that he has
passed the course over which all ami
mated nature must pass, it is crafty
ing to know that in his demise his
friends have lost true friend, the
community good neighbor, and the
state a good citizen.
The funeral was very large one
and took place Monday morning from
the Catholic church at St. Mary. Rev.
Father Trainor, OF Waseca, celebrated
high requiem mass and preached the
funeral sermon, all earnest and elo-
quent parting tribute to the deceased.
The music was rendered by the choir
OF Sacred Heart church, Waseca.

We live today. and we lose tomor-

As in youthtime so fair.
And hide me from God

The navy department has decid- ed to carry out its ambitious scheme of establishing the largest coaling station on the Pacific at Kiska is- land, in the Aleutian chain, about 800 miles west of Dutch Harbor. It was told briefly in press dis patches recently that the gunboat Petrel has been assigned to duty in Alaska waters for the coming season. The special duty of the Petrel will be to complete the pre- liminary work for the proposed naval base at Kiska island.
 The plans for the station were devised by the general board of the navy, of which Admiral Dewey is the head. It is roughly estimated that the station will in the end cost about $1 300, 900, for it is pro- posed to provide first-class facili- ties for coaling ships and to main- tain a supply of not less than 100000 tons of coal there.
 The natural harbor is provided with a breakwater in little Kiska island. There is good sdepth of water and dredging will be neces- sary only in the immediate vicinity of the wharves.
 The naval officers who are inter- ested in the project say that the Kiska island site answers in a marked degree all the requirements of naval strategy. It is within 25O miles of the great circle route be- tween the Pacific coast and the Oriental ports, and the ceal supply will be of value to the merchant trade in case of emergency. The place will also furnish harbor oi refuge.
