Grover AngLin.

It's with a saddened heart hat we
undertake to write a few lines in men
ofy of our dearly beloved brother,
Grover G., son Of Mr.. and Mrs. W. G.
An5lin, when sad event occurred on
the morning OF January 3rd, 1905, af-
ter an. illness of three months duration
While his death was not unexpected il
seemed more than we could bear to
give him up just ahen he was entering
manhood and tho pathway Of life was
bright and the. future radiant with
hope But we cannot question ere
the wisdom Of God in taking him
away
sometime, when all LIES lessons have
been learned,
And sun and stars forevermore haYe
set, =
The things which our weak judgment
here had spurned,
The things DER which we grieved
with lashes wet,
viii flash before us out of life's dark
night,
AS stars shine most in deeper tints
of blue;
And we shall see how all Gods plans
were right,
And how what seemed reproof was
love most true.
When he was first stricken down he
said that he would never get well and
expressed his willingness and readiness
to go at the. Masters call. He,was new
er known to murmer, but bore his suf-
ferings With ortftude and resignation,
always trusting implicitly in Jesus, his
strength. and bis comfort. He was a
dutiful ana. obedieiit son, a true and
loving brother and scrupulously honest
and upright in his dealings with every
body. The love which be bore his moth
err was touching. to. behold. His life
was indeed the exemolii:ltjon Of Ten
nyson's Standard ':Tis only noble to be
good" and was. distinctly marked by
that gentle, modest dignity that char
act erized his every action.
We cannot but mourn for our dear
departed brother. but we do not mourn
a3-those-sha kaYa 40 hone, for he left
abundant evilaace Of his acceptance
with Col. Bat while we feel confident
tlat he has exchanged q world Of sin
and sorrow, fora woril of gIocy and
Brightness, yet oar hearts are made
sal @hsu5ve think that we can no more
share his sweet association here. we
feel assured thaG W1e7 the judge Of
e. n teon HIS great whit. throne sad
an. Con- Up, ye b es5rd o. my
Faith r. thai hl5>pUre soul was waited
on sao III piaitls across th2 DARK rivAt
of death to the S4qqy banks OF sweet
deIiverance, and that now he Is haskipg
in the sunlight of our blessed Sayiour's
face, to live in that beautiful home,
not made with hands. forever and ever.
There we hope to meet him., to
part again.
On the morning of the 4th inst his
remains were carried to the old West
moreland cemetery for interment. Rev.
J. H. jenkins conducted the funeral
services. speaking pathetically Of his
purity and simplicity of character.
God grant that we may rest as calmly
when our work, like his, is done.

ELECTRIC CLOCK CHANGED.
Change Necessitated Altering Position
 of War Governor's Portrait.

Change Necessitated Altering. Position
 of War Governors Portrait.
 Hartford, Jan, 1.-The electric clock which for years has hung on the west of the executive secretary's office which is the middle room of the suite of the capital that constitute the ex- eecutive department-has been remov- ed to the governors private office, and placed in position on the east wall di- .rectly in front of the governors desk, In order to make room for 1t on this wall 1t was necessary to change the po- sition of the portrait of Governor w. A. Buckingham, Connecticut's war gover- nor, who was the chief executive of the state from 1858 to 1S66 This portrait was taken down Monday morning by Colonel Schulze, the artificer of the cap itol, and after the frame was cleaned and improved in appearance 1t was hung in another place in the governors office.
 It is interesting to recall that this portrait was the f1rst one or Governor Buckingham that was painted for the state. It formerly hung among the por- traits of governors of Connecticut but in deference to the objections of the family of Governor Buckingham it was removed and a portrait that was more satisfactory to them, was put in Its place. When it became a question what to do with the original portrait, some one suggested that it be hung in the executive office. The suggestion was a happy one, and it was adopted. The only other portrait in the governor $ office is that of Israel Putnam.
 It has otyet been decided what to put in the space in the executive secre- tarys office that was occupied by the clock. It may be that another c1ocl will be substituted for the one that was taken down and placed in the gover- nor's office,

Leach has never used either, but has been a great coffee thinker and the specialists have de- cided that the case has been caused by this. Leach stated himself that for several years he had drank three cups of coffee for breakfast, two at noon and one at night According to the records of the specialists of this coun- try this is the first case ever caused by the use of coffee.
