GRACE A, BRADLEY.

Grace A. Bradley was born In New
Haven. With the exception of a few
days ago she spent her life here We'd
nesday evening, May 8, she passed
from here to the heavenly city.
She was the daughter of Harvey and
Maria Atwater Bradley, one of that
large family of strong men and women
who have been known and honored in
this community for many generations.
For more than fifty years she was a
beloved member Of the Church of the
Redeemer, proving the quality of her
faith by the character of her service.
But these facts Of birth and parentage,
and formal life relations do not de-
scribe her. Rarely has there been more
Of moral worth and practical goodness
revealed In a single life. She literally
lived for others; calm, patient, hopeful,
quick to see need, each day "some deed
of kindness done testified to the spirit
and purpose of her life,
Many affections tested her; In later
years painful, fatal disease seized
her, but none Of these things moved
her. Stricken, suffering intensely, fac
ing the steady healthy approach of
death, no one ever heard her complain.
SO the serene spirit triumphed over the
tortured body. love enndbled life, and
faith conquered death; here was New
England life, Of the olden type, at its
best

THE ONE ACCIDENT CAME.

1T Never Happens to a Shooter but
Once" Said Jimmie O'Hare.
When Jimmie O'Hare was blown in
to fragments at Chelsea one day last
week by the explosion of wagon load
of nitroglycerine a prophecy was full
filled that was first made twenty years
ago and was reiterated times with
out number in every oil district in the
country. For Jimmie had worked in
every district in the country where the
chug of the oil drill has been heard,
and in his life he handled enough ex-
plosives to have destroyed Port Ar
thur several times. Daily he lived in
close association with hundreds Of gal
Ions Of nttroglycerine, and 1t was O.
common sight in the oil country Ito see
him rafting over the hills on the seat
of wagon loaded with the deadly ex-
plosive.
He will get 1t some day." the boys
in the Pennsylvania oil fields began
saying more than twenty years ago,
and have repeated it everywhere Jim
mic went.
But all these years Jimmie laughed
at the prophecies and, laughing, would
load up his wagon and rattle out into
the country to shoot a we'll, taking
with him from oneto two hundred
quarts Of nitroglycerine. But the trite
adage of the pitcher tells the story
of Jimmies end Asis usually the case
in such accidents, nobody knows or
ever will know how it happened. There
was an explosion that shook the coun-
try for miles around, and when an In
vestigation was madethere was little
to be found ercept wide, deep hole
in the ground.
The man who was killed often told
of incidents that illustrated the freak
ishfess of the explosive he handled.
and 1t may have been some freak that
cost him his life. Jimmie used to tell
of the runaway in the streets of
Bradford, Pa, when a team dragged a
glycerine wagon the whole length Of
a street, the cans richocheting around
like billiard balls, and no explosion 90,
Cured. Then Of another case which
occurred in the old days, when the
glycerine box was located right over
the spring of the wagon. There was
a leaky can, and three drops falling
on the springs caused the loss Of two
: lives. He told Of still another case
where shooter on spree hurled bot
ties of glycerine against a rock. All Of
thebottles broke, but not one explod-
ed. He would close with his story of
that singular occurrence which took
place in Chanute last spring. when a
glycerine magazine. caught fire and was
entirely burned without exploding. And
then he would say; TITS the friction,
man, it's the friction, and that's what
I'm always looking out for"
Maybe Jimmie forget the friction for
once.
Jimmie had certain rules heobserved
when handling nitroglycerine. One day
while discussing explosives he said:
"A man had better quit this business
like handling nettle. Take hold of
or pa1icky fellow had better stay away
from glycerine, because something will
happen, and 1t never happens to a
shooter but once"

oil man in New York, Pennsylvania,

woMEN's VIOLET FARM.

Venture in Growing the Fragrant
Blossoms That Has Proved Successful.
A violet farm is the latest venture of
two enterprising north shore women,
Mrs. George C. McReynolds and Miss
Nina F. Howard of Glencoe, who have
in year built up business supplying
the local florists.
1--WE started our farm last spring in
the face Of the most discouraging,
prophecies farm our friends and the
keenest competition Of violet growers
of New York" said Miss Howard in
speaking of the undertaking. But we
believe we could be successful. We
had studied the best scientific methods
of growing the plants, had imported
the best soil obtainable and built a
greenhouse fully adapted to our needs,
so we just went ahead, and we have
found it to be paying proposition.
"Our first experiment was in making
cuttings from the violet farm of Miss
Chittenden at Lancing, Mich, woman
who has been g. most successful grower.
These did not thrive and we next i'm
ported 5000 cuttings from the Hudson
River country, where violet culture has
been most successful. 1t is not general
ly known that John D. Rockefeller has
the largest violet farm in America at
Tarrytown- on-the- Hudson, and our
cuttings came from that part of the
country.
THE first rule is too keep the tenn
perature Of the greenhouse between As
and 50 degrees. Violets are spring
flowers and wither and droop If
teh temperature is not at the right de-
gree. Most people think the double

most of those that we get in Chicago
are grown in New York and lose their

THE KAISERIN AUGUSTA VIC
TORIA.

Successful Trial Trip of the fastest
and Greatest Ship of the Hamburg
American ne-Passenger Aecomo-
dations, Equipment and Decorations
Unsurpassed.
According to cable advices received
here by Emil L. Boas, general manager
of the Haburg- American Line, the
greatest of all ocean liners, the KAISER
in Auguste Victoria, arrived in Ham
burg last evening after a most success
full trial trip, on which a speed of over
nineteen knots per hour was attained.
The Kaiserin Auguste Victoria, built
at the well-known Vulcan Ship Build
ing Co.'s works at Stettin, Germany, is
a vessel of $4,000 tons gross register
and $4,000 tons displacement. Over all
she is 700 feet long, has seventy-eight
feet beam, and has no less than eight
decks above the water-line. OF these,
three are huge promenade decks, on
NlllSl dlS lO1dLSu tllC INllA-GdIllOu Ter
staurant, la carte, the social hall,
smoking rooms, palm garden, gymnas-
ium and a large number of suites and
chambers de luxe. OF the lateer there
are no less than fifty, and most OF
these have private bath and toilet ar
rangements. The ship will accommo-
date $50 first class, 300 second class,
300 third class and 1900 fourth class
passengers and will carry a crew of
800 officers and men.
The planning Of the interior of this
great vessel has received unusual care
and study. Years of experience, as
we'll as suggestions from many experts,
have enabled the company's officials to
submit ideas to the designers and de-
corators which have resulted in pas
senger accommodations, and in equip
ment and style Of decorations, which
will astonish the travelling public. The
interior work has been entrusted to
the best known firms of Germany, En-
gland and France. While the Amerika
is hard to surpass, cable advices re-
port that some of the features of the
Kaiserin, particularly the palm garden
again show an advance in the interior
equipment Of great passenger steamers.

RISE, GO IN PEACE.
Bv Charles w Drake.

By Charles w. Drake.
AS far as east is from the west,
So far has He removed thy sin;
And this was done without request
Before thy SHINING did begin
And so your sins are all forgiven,
And what is there 'twixt you and
Heav'n?
And see how far away they are?
So far away He sees them not;
And if to him they are 50 far
So far that all are quite forgot
You sure may rise and so in peace,
And more and more they SHINING cease.
And yet He does not take away
Thy SHINING and fallen nature,
But gives thee hope of better day,
When this great hope brings helpful
ness,
And comforts thee in thy distress.
Man is sinful and such will be,
AS long as he is here and human
And so, otherwise it cannot be,
While man is man and born of wo-
man.
aye must be born again." once more,
And this will not be as before,
Resurrection is your new birth;
Behold, I make all things as new;"
"a new heaven and a new EARTH
Out of the old He will construe,
And a new man TO correspond
And so look up, do not despond.
Thy sins-not 1low--in the far away,
Are as far removed as the west
Is from the glow of dawning day,
And tits so sure that you may rest,
And by divine imagination,
See thysef in the new creation.
