The nearest a destructive
earthquake has ever come to Ne
braska in historic time is New
Madrid. Missouri-about five
hundred miles in an air line.
The event began December 10,
1911, and continued for several
weeks. The accounts of early
settlers, flatboatmen and explor-
erS are filled with the vivid story
of this great shake" as it was
called. Tracts of land as large
as an average Nebraska county
were sunk to such great depth
that tall trees disappeared in
the waters which rushed in and
formed lakes still existing today,
Cracks in the earth five miles
long, ten feet wide and several
feet deep appeared. Chickens
were shaken OUT OF trees where
they roasted, fiat boats were
sunk and houses shaken down.
The small population IN the re-
gion prevented great loss of life,
two women only being killed
among the settlers. Congress
passed an act for relief, permitt-
ing those who had lost their
land to select new claims else
where, on public lands in Miss
ouri. These land were called
New Madrid claims" and be-
came the source of litigation
latter. State Journal,

THE BEAUTY ETERNAL.

ana ner poor hands weak and helpless,
For weary years had lain
There was not trace of beauty,
Unless it shone in her eyes
When she spoke of the children of heaven,
And the life beyond the skies.
Small indeed was her humble service.
There was little that she could give;
One would think she had task sufficient
To bear her burden and live
And yet she found time to whisper
A word of tenderness
10 many heart less burdened,
Yet sad with some soul distress.
And she had smile that was cheering.
Giving courage to some faint heart,
That otherwise might have fallen,
Unable to bear its part
And her joys indeed we're the purest
And sweetest the heart can feel,
For her greatest Friend was the Master,
And the friendship was deep and real.
And when at last came her freedom,
And she left her prison bars,
And her spirit took wing in rapture
For its home beyond the stars;
And leaden grief was ours
Although thought of her Joy
AS we laid her beneath the flowers
But one who had known and loved her,
Had wonderful dream that night
Which lifted her soul to heaven,
And revealed to her dazzled sight
A palace of marvellous beauty,
Whose turretS were timed with ct,rc
And whose portals of pearl celestial
Were fastened with golden bars.
And she saw at the Gates of the Palace
suppliant spirit stand,
Whose robes were of bridal whitcness,
Bearing lilies in her hand
In whose face shone the beauty of angels,
Rejecting the Masters own,
And at the touch of her fingers
The Gates were open thrown,
And there issued wonderful music
From thousand harps of gold,
Which echoed afar through the heavens,
Like a garment it seemed to enfold
The waiting one with its essence
And / saw her entering,
A Princess of royal beauty
The Palace of the King.
And | thought that | heard a voice
Speak from the Great White Throne
Which said, Come hither, My daughter,
Behold, how fair thou hast grown"
oh, We, who are blessed with beauty
Lift up your faces fair
To the light of the Hills Eternal,
oh, breathe from your hearts prayer,
And humbly thank God for the blessing;
lis indeed priceless dover
And if used for the good Of the Master,
May become a heaven-felt power.
But be sure we possess that beauty
BY the Spirit Of God made pure;
The beauty Of Christ reflected;
The beauty that must endure
