the last two weeks, il is equally
applicable in either case. For the
little blind god seems TO have
neither respect for age nor pity

taken a train for their wedding
journey. For some reason, they
were delayed in reaching the DOM
ini's residence. 1t looked as if they
could not catch their train if they
stopped 10 get married. But Love"
rose TO the emergency and found
the proverhal way. In spite of the
fact that guests were waiting 10
see them married. they bundled the
clergyman and witnesses into q
hack, jumped in themselves, and
were married on their way to the
station. That hack must have been
some crowded, but it didn't last
long, and when they had only I've
minutes in which to get married
and catch the train they could not
stick at a little crowding. They
caught the train. Next!
Another story comes from Coz
orado-the story Of widow and
a convict. Mrs, Nellie Rock, through
whose devotion and untiring efforts
Charles Strickland secured his re-
lease after serving seven years Of
a life sentence, married him last
week. Her letter to Governor Nc
Donald announcing her intention
is addressed to My very best

trans-continental traffic. The
exceptionally low rates of fare,
superior accommodations, the
most complete arrangements for
the comfort of passengers, handl-
ing Of luggate, hotel accommoda-
tions, and other incidents which
make the trip agreeable, will
have a tendence to induce many
thousands of Eastern people and
residents from all sections of the
country to visit California on
that occasion.
The local committees are prep
airing a series of events for con-
vention week, which will make a
program of exceptional attract
ions. The visitors will have
every opportunity to go through
the military reservation, see
every place of interest in one of
the most important camps of the
United States Army; visit the
great shipbuilding plant, the
cradle of some of the great
battleships of our navy; inspect
the Government Naval Training
Station, the Navy Yard at Vale
jo, the Benicia Barracks and
Arsenal, the Military prison on
Alcatraz Island, the Quarantine
Station and the u. S. Marine
Hospital on Mare Island, scan the
ships from many nations riding
at anchor in the bay, take a run
outside the Golden Gate, spin
around the lighthouse, the seal
rocks and the cliffs. Special feat
ures for convention week will be
announced in due time.
1t will be an opportunity for all
visitors to see tee largest con-
vention of thechers ever held in
the United States, and to take in
the sights of California at a min
imum cost.
San Francisco is prepared to
receive the largest number of
visitors that ever assembled
within its gates, and so are the
people of the whole State Of Cali
fornia and the entire Pacific
Coast.

To do wrong involves the indus

tates Of conscience, our better
self. The penalty is suffering.
To do right, we are only to fol-
low the dictates Of a carefully
educated conscience. The re-
ward is the sweet satisfaction
which comes to every soul con-
scious of duty we'll done.

Largest Convention OF
Teachers Ever Held.

The National Educational AS
sociation Convention to be held
in San Francisco from July 18th
to l4th, is likely to be the largest
and the most important that has
ever been held by that organiza-
ton.
The School Superintendents
who were in session in Louisville,
Ky, during the past week, gave
assurance to the California dele
cation that not less than 10000
teachers will attend that conven-
ton, and that the Superintend-
entS had the names Of the teach
ers Of their respective districts
who had promised to attend the
California meeting. This in
formation was wired to the press
and the California teachers at
once.
The people Of California are
making preparations to receive
and entertain the educators Of
the country in a maner fitting
their position and worthy of Cali
fornians, anticipating that 20, 600
teachers will be their guests in

You are not looking at him, but
at the scenery. You are waving

the landscape and getting a
senseless blur. Yor are taking
your own likeness. Stop that.
Stand behind. Open your eyes.

MEMORlAM.
MRS. FANNIE HOOD.

Leaves have their time to fall and fowors TO
wither at the north winds breath.
And stars to set:-but all thou hast all seasons
for thine own. o DEATH"
There is no event that SO bows
our heads and hearts as to stand
face to face with death, How
cold his hand, how remorseless
his grasp, he heeds not our pray
ers to stay his march. He robs
us of our dearest possessions.
Yet we are taught not only in
Holy Writ but by every day OBJ
servation that to bow to
his stern decree is the common
lot of our common humanity.
When the announcement is made
that one has fallen, who's head
is frosted by many winters, upon
whose face time and suffering
have made deep burrows, we are
not likely to regard this as eX-
ira ordinary. We think of them
as having completed their weary
pilgrimage and fallen asleep.
1t seems but yesterday that
Fannie Young, Mrs. Thos.
Hood, was mingling in the
pleasures of our little village and
a school girl. 1t seems a dream
that she has been taken away,
for we see her now in our minds
eye, yet we have followed her to
the grave and heard the cruel
clods fall upon the casket and
seen the new made mound COW
cred with flowers. How mystic
rious are the ways of Providence,
So true is this, we are often
dumb with silence as we hear
His footballs and see the moving
OF HIS hand.
The death of Mrs. Hood was
Monday morning, March, 5th,
after a long illness, has cast a
gloom over all hearts. All that
medical science could do to ward
off the great enemy was done.
The burial took place at the
Smell graveyard Tuesday after
noon at l o'clock, Elder NJ. d.
Armstrong, officiating.
All hearts 90 out in tenderest
sympathy for the bereaved hus-
band, little baby and all rel
atiVes.

We read with pleasure the

knows what is right and what
ought to be done, and we believe
if he is elected Circuit Judge, he
will fill that office to perfection,
50 let all who will, vote for him
on the 2Sth.
We have heard some say it
would do them no good to vote
but | say friends if there is any
one you want elected you must
go and vote for him. 1t is your
privilege, and you must do your
duty for the sake of your children
hereafter. When we old ones
nave passed away, think of this
and vote for the amendments
that will shelp in the future.
There is room for many changes
in our laws.
Judge Hirst, we guess is get
ting along all right in his can
yass and we hope he may re-
main in his seat for another term
and we think Walter Rogers will

enough to let Walter ride his
horse on Sunday.

All contracts for whiskey ad-

a medium through which to eXtol
their virtues. The.Ledger makes
no claim to sanctifcation, but
when a saloonkeeper tells us that

whisky, it makes us feel that we
have been in a small measure re-

and we promise to sin nomOre. y
