beautiful sky above us. There is good
ground for the statement that within the
next twelve months you will see two
other handsome buildings besides this
one whose cornerstone We lay today. So
l say, the Lord be praised that he has
| sent us this bright, ausplcious day for
Westminster college. I'm glad to see tho
faces OF SO many old friends here.
and fellow workers, whose heads. like
mine, are growing gray in the Lord 8
service. May the Lord be with them TO
the end.
Corner Stone in Place,
At the conclusion of this address the
large red sandstone cornerstone was
lowered into place. AS it came to rest
firmly on the concrete foundation, DR..
McNiece said; 81 now declare that the
building OF Westminster college has
been duly laid, and. ] now invoke the
blessings of the Father. May this in
shtution do valiant service for both
God and man, and stand as n credit to
those who have builded it. J"
In the little steel box deposited in
the cornerstone were stored away an
issue of each of today's daily papers,
the Inter Mountain Advocate, a photo
graph of Col. w M. Ferry, a sketch
of his life, circulars published by DR..
Steyenson with regard TO the college.
leaflets by Drs Wishard McNiece and
Eaton, the Ten Reasons and the state
mcnts of the cases Of B. H. Roberts
and Apostle Reed Smoot.
The dodicatory prayer was offered by
Rev. n l.. Clemenson and immediately
thereafter President Stevenson deliv-
cred short address, In which be de
clared that the pre-eminent aim of
Westminster college would be to give
a Christian education, the only com
plete and rounded education. The
speaker declared that State universities
out of necessity confne themselves to
the physical and educational, while this
institution, while developing these two
sides of the student. will not overlook
his spiritual side,
Will Be Christian College.
The speaker made the point that the
institution would be, above nll else,
Christian college, very emphatically.
He said that this did not mean that
the other branches would be neglected.
and that in addition such a great gem
as the Bible, the greatest piece of Eng
lish literature would be included in the
curriculum of study.
In his address the speaker took oc-
caslon to mention the names and thank

includes some twenty odd acres, was

Beggars Who Take the "Cure. >

Begging seems to be lucrative call
ing in Vienna. In one of the district
police courts a man and his wife were
summoned to appear on charge Of beg
ging on the streets, Only the woman
appeared, and in answer to the magis-
trates questions stated that her hus-
band had gone to Baden TO take cure,
The prosecuting attorney remarked that
the Viennese beggars earned such good
incomes and lived so we'll that they
were forced to go to some bath resort
to recover from their high living. Only
a few days ago lie said. a beggar well
known in the Vienna police courts had
returned from Carlsbad after taking the
cure there and had returned to his beg
ging with renewed vigor.

No Great Admiration for Her.

A voluble girl was going from New
York to New London and she was seat
ed next to a pleasant'faved young wo
man, who spoke to her. After a while
the talk drifted to general topics.
"Do you know" said the girl
"speaking of lovely women. | was read
ing about Mrsr Grover Cleveland today.
She is my ideal of a lovely woman,
and the girl launched into torrent of
extravagant praise of the former mis-
tress of the White House. Suddenly
the girl perceived her companion was
rather unresponsive.
'Perhaps you don T agree with me
about Mrs Cleveland. Do you know
her7' asked the girl
''Yes, I know her." said the other.
"Don't YOU admire her tremendous
ly7"
"well, no, not especially" replied
the other.
The girl changed the subject.
At Greenwich the other rose to leave
the train, and said: ''I get out here.
I IN visiting some friends I hope we
may meet again. Here is my card
The girl gave her card in exchange.
and when the train had started again
she looked at the card left with her and
read thereon: Mrs. Grover Cleve-
land, Boston Herald.

Hints to Nervous Women.

There are many things a neurasthenic
woman can do which will mitigate the
severity OF her symptoms, and perhaps
II the disease is slight she may re-

physician. In the first place, the
original trouble. worry or anxiety which
was responsible for her nervous break

sufferer hould do all she can to secure

ITO BASH

The expressive verb "to BASH has
become the common property of the
whole country, so that it is impossible
to determine the local origin of the la
borer at the I.aindon Farm colony who,
according to the evidence given at the
Ponlar inquiry. threatened to come and
bash his wife if she did not send
him four shillings. But where did the
verb come from originality According
to Halliwell, from Bedfordshire. IeC
elsewhere, we find it asserted that the

dictionary again finds "bash' chiefly
used in the north. Probably the genius
of any part of England would have
been equal to evolving this excellent
word, which is thought possibly to be
a portmanteau combination of 'fbeat' -
and bang with the vigorous sound
Of "thrash" or "smash. London

SOME CURIOUS EPITAPHS
An Effort Being Made to Preserve
Those In English Churchman'S.

Those In English Churchyards.
The Suffolk Institute of Archaeology
has just issued an appeal to incumbents
in the country to transcribe the epi-
taphs In their church yards so that a
permanent record may be kept
Some curious epitaphs come to mind.
Shore and succlnct is the following:
Here lies Robert Wallas.
The King of Good Fellows,
Clerk of All Hallows,
And maker of bellows.
The following punning epitaph Is
inscribed on the tomb of a Liverpool
brewer:
Poor John Scott lies buried here;
Although he was both hale and
stout,
Death stretched him on the bitter bier;
In other world he hops about.
There is a delicious blending of the
spiritual and temporal I'm this:
Beneath this stone, in hope OF Zion,
Doth lie the landlord of the Lion"
His son keeps on the business still,
Resigned unto the heavenly will.
Temperance advocates should not
read this epItaph;
She drank strong ale and punch and
wine.
And lived to the age Of ninety-nine.
There is touch of malice in this In
scription to Rev. Mr.. CHEST:
Here lies at rest. / do protest.
One chest within another.
The chest of wood was very good
Who says so of the other?
Here is a. curious one on a tomb
stone in Hartland church yard
Here ! lie outside the chancel door.
Here I lie because I'm poor,
The further In the more they pay
But here | lie as warm S they.
