Passes B6uOnd
John DimOnd, a Prominent Citizen Passes
Away After a Long Illness. The Direct
Cause of his Demise was Diabetes.

John Dimond, one of the best known
citizens of Sank Centre, died at 4
O'Clock ON Wednesday afternoon.
MIR. Dimond's illness has been of a
character to preclude his recovery, and
word from the sick room received from
day to day by his friends, has not
been of an assuring nature, but, never
theless, the end is sad shock to his
family and many friends here, where
he has lived for the past forty years.
In the early fall he was seized by an
illness which was believed to be
diabetes, and when later heart dis
ease followed all hope of recovery was
abandoned.
John Dimond was born in Columbus,
Georgia, on July 20, 1856. When a
lad of 9 years he came to Minnesota
with his parents, and for ten years
lived on farm at the head of Sank
Lake. In the year of 1875 he, with
his parents, moved to this city, where
he learned the carpenter trade in which
be was interested until the time of his
sickness. At one time he was in
partnership with his brother, Fred
Dimond of this city, in contracting
and building.
In 1881 he married Myra A. Veeder.
Six children were born to them, three
of whom are living. The two elder,
Grover and John, are high school
boys, and Harvey is boy of twelve.
Mr.. Dimond was in every way a
typical American citizen. He was a
good husband and father and stood
for what was best in the home life.
He has been active in lodge work for
many years; at the time of his death
being a member of the Masons,
K. Prs, A. 0. U. W., Foresters and
Washington League.
He is survived by his devoted wife
and three sons and eight brothers
Henry of Newberg, Ore, Charles Of
b. trum, Matthew of Browerville
So iuel of Minneapolis, Fred of Sank
Centre, Robert of Harve, Mont.
Luther of Long Prairie, and Albert oil
st. Paul; also two sisters, Mrs. G. S.
Sergeant of Round Prairie, and Mrs
K. B. Writ of Cookville, Tenn.
The family receive the deepest
sympathy of their friends in thei
irreparable loss.
The funeral will take place from his
residence Sunday, March 18th at
o'lock p. M, under the auspices O
Star in the West Lodge, Rev. F. M
Garland officiating.

c.. M. Sprague, Candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor, in an interview with
the editor of the Herald says:
81 am, as is well known by my
friends, Roosevelt republican in all
that the name implies, and am IN
hearty accord with our Minnesota
Senators and Congressman in their
support of the administration.
SIN state matters | believe in rail-
road laws which will protect both the
shipper and the carrier. | believe in
an anti-pass law, and in such super
vision and regulation of both pas
senger and freight rates as will insure
to the public,a square deal.
81 am in favor of the enactment OF
such tax laws as will place all property
of value on the tax books, and, when
the revenues from gross earnings and
franchise corporations and inheritance
taxes are sufficient to meet the state
expenses, that the raising of state
taxes by counties be discontinued.
81 favor liberal appropriations for
state drainage.
SIN my opinion the Legislature
should take prompt action in support
of the good roads movement. Minne-
sota's large agricultural interests
demand better facilities for transport
ing the products of the farm to market.
81 am in favor of more stringent
insurance laws, laws that will regulate
and control life insurance in the
interests of the policy holder, and that
all institutions receiving funds in
trust for others be placed under super
vision.
eff l am elected lieutenant governor
and have the appointment of COM
mittees, | shall deal squarely with the
peoples interest, and favor no special
interests.
''The assistance of my friends and

fearlessly, and to the satisfaction OF
the people who placed me in this high
and honorable position"

especially characterizes these services.

replied, 81 should say they were."
The people are interested. Some
events happening over the country of
late have made the people stop bit in
their mad rush and inquire what are
the things in life really worth while.
Our citizens have felt this reaction
and there is genuine interest to
investigate the message of the

A TREATY is in process of negotiation
between the United States and Japan
which it is thought will be acceptable
both to the Japanese authorities and to
the people of San Francisco. It is,beieved
by many that the strongly conciliatory
language used by the President toward
Japan and the scolding he gave San
Francisco was part of his scheme of di-
plomacy to get the matter adjusted with
out a serious rupture. Japan's represen-
tatiyes appear to take rational view of
the situation and manifest a willingness
to do anything within reason to facilitate
the conclusion of treaty that will relieve
the stress on both Sides -Punxsutawney

HANDEL'S O8STlNACY.
An Incident of the Great MusIcian's
ChiInl.cnG DAYS

An Incident of the Great Muslcian's
Childhood Days.
\ child's Obstinacy does not always
bring as fortunate results as was the
case with Handel, the great musician.
His extraordinary resoluteness as a
boy doubtless led to that great success
which crowned the later years of his
life. When he was some seven years
of age his father had occasion to visit
n son by a former wife, who was valet
to the Duke of SAKE Weissenfels.
Travelling in those days-2O0 years ago
was tedious and expensive, and Dr.
| Handel did not desire to be delayed
with the care of an infant during
journey which the demands of a re-
sponsible profession would probably
make as short as possible.
But the future giant of music would
go. He cried, beloved and eventually
ran along the road after the vehicle,
until the tender feelings of the doctor
could refuse no longer. In an evil mo-
ment for his Jurisprudence scheme he
took the child with him.
No sooner did the little fellow reach
the ducal residence than he gave rein
to his fancy on the keys of every in
strument that he found open. The re-
markable music that came from the
finger tips Of the childs hands was
soon the object of wonder and conver-
satiOn throughout The palace, and all
this was intensified when he secured
an opportunity Of touching the keys Of
the chancel organ within the hearing
of the duke.
Such throb started from that chap
el organ when little Handel's tendriled
fingers chose the keys, and the soul of
the duke was touched as it never had
been touched before-truly momen-
tous occurrence, since but for it Han
ders sacred music might never have
been written.
The dukes attention having been ar
rested, he inquired of DR.. Handel con-
cernlng the child's future. and eventu-
ally succeeded in placing him for three
years study under Zachau. the organ
ist of Halle cathedral. This was the be-
ginning of lInnders musical education.

REFERRING to the project to provide

kind into any city, borough or township

IT must be conceded by every philo-
sophie and unprejudiced observer that
nothing that President Roosevelt can do
will serve to abate or lessen his dignity
in the eyes of the people, says the New
York Sun. 1t is the most inscrutable
and wonderful of his many gifts. Before
it the power and the right of impeach-
ment have become an obsolute tradition.
He can no more make himself ridiculous
than the Senate eau resuscitate the pas
sions with which it assailed Andrew
johnson. Not since the great figure that
held the whole stage of Europe hun
dred years ago has there been another in
history so magically endowed. There is
no mystery in all humanity like the mys-
terry of genius. Therefore, all criticism
is futile, and only cquiescence is the
safer and wiser part. 1t is Improbable,
if not indeed abect folly, to urge that
while the President cannot make himself
ridiculous it is possible that he should
make the country ridiculous. 1t is the
same Providence that watches over both.

The Poison Of wealth.

Great riches, carrying with them
enormous possibilities of self indul-
gence, may fairly be considered as a
sort of poison which ruins a certain
proportion of those who are exposed
to it, though strong constitutions sur
vive. AS rum destroys savlges, so
wealth tends TO destroy persons-espe-
cially young ones, whom use and train
ing have not gradually made immune
to Its effects. How that is may readily
be noticed in observing the effects of
newly won wealth on the families of
the winners. 1t is a rare man and usu-
ally one very much blessed in his wife,
who can combine with the ability that
wins him riches the sagacity to train
children born in comparative poverty
so that they will benefit by rapid and

stances Edward S. Martin in Allan
