all occurred in the month Of March.
She had been for The last ten years of
her lite q very great sufferer, bearing
her affection with a perfect Christian
grace and forttude. She was quiet,
gentle aud sympatheti, in disposition,
a loving wife and mother, . kind
neighbor and friend.
She will be greatly missed IN the
community, but it is in the home
where she was nursed aud cared for
as tenderly as a little child through all
the years of her afliction, that will
seem so sad and lonely without her.
But we would say to those who are

Weep MT that her race Is run,
God grant that we may rest as calmly
When our work, like hers, is done"
She was one who remembered her

through the after yeaIs which was
more than half a century she tried
faithfully to do the will of the Master.
Even when the hour of death drew
nigh she admonished her dear ones to
be faithful to themselves and to their
God and meet her in the better world
where sorrow never comes.
nWall done of Cod In halve the le.
And give her all the sweetness:
TO US, the empty and cot
To her, the heavens completeness;
To us this doom, to her the rose
The mystic palm-trees springing;
To Us the silence and the gloom,
To her the chorals singing.
"Cal not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are o'er;
On the border-land we leave them
Soon 20 meet and part NJ more.
When we leave this world OF changes,
When we leave this world Of care,
We shall meet our missing loved ones

MEDICAL TEACHING FAULT.
College Men Facing Serious Prob
lem in Widening Of knowledge
on Former Puzzles.

Advances in knowledge are 50
rapidly widening the medical
horizon that the construction OF
a properly balanced curriculum
is to those in charge of medical
colleges a most serious problem,
SAYS American Medicine. In ad-
ditiOn, the professor in charge OF
each branch finds difficulty in
choosing from the almost ex-
haustless material at his cont
mand that which is of most value
In the limited time at his disposal.
Largely because of this disparity
between material and the time for
its presentation, each teacher con-
~ccntrates his attention upon the
points pertaining to his subject,
This to q degree is eminentG
proper, bat partly from necessity
and partly from choice this con
centratiotn is too often made ex-
cessive. The head of each depart
meAt attempts to make of the stu
dents under him specialists in
that branch; at least if such at
tempt be not consciously made,
the teaching impaired tends
nightly in this direction. AS d
consequence n or both of two re-
suits is Utmost inevitable.
First, the Importance of a
branch is exaggerated and its re
latiOn to other branches is CORE.
spondingly minimized. Each sub.
iect is thus presented in an iso.
lated and somewhat Overdrawn
manner and the student must
needs compare and correlate
them, a task which the excep
tional man may accomplish, but
for which the average medicaI
undergraduate is entirely unfit
ted by previous training, and fol-
which he has neither the time mol
the inclination. Second, the prac
tical side of the subject is subor
dinated to the scientific aspect
Ooncretelty, learned discussions
that would be appropriate fol-
teachers of the branch are giver
to the higher classes or even t.
sephOmores and freshmen as lee

One Of Owners Of BIalock Ranch Takes
Bond on Valuable Quartz
Claims.

A. B. Finch, of the firm Of Finch &

ranch. has taken a bond on a group Of
quartz claims in Alaska.
One of Mr.. Campbelrs experts left
Seattle Sunday on the portland" to
examine the property, and on his re-
port will depend the purchase or the
surrendering of the bond. Mr.. Camp
bell, however, is quoted as having said
that he believed they would develop
into one of the great gold Minis of the
world. When questioned today, how
ever, he made light of the matter,
though he confirmed the facts Of the
bond and the expert. Nor would he
state the size of the bond.
The claims in question are located
on Falls Creek, stream about y
miles from Seward, Alaska. 1t Is
crossed by the Alaska Central railway.
The claims are about five miles up the
creek from the railway.

Turner Tries Melody Game.

1t seems to be quite the proper ca
per for a prize fighter to cut out a
fight in this country. Melody started
the thing going and now Rufe Turner
gets into the running.
Rufe was an unpopular man in Ev-
erett Wednesday evening. He was to
have met Johnny Grove, but failed to
put in an appearance. Instead Of
sending the Everett management word,
Turner appears to have gone into re-
tirement and let the club burn up its
money looking for him. AS usual the
club did not demand forfeit money
from the dusky hitter, and as result
is short about 5000. An effort is being
made to have Louie Long meet Grove
at Everett the latter part of this
month.

Job for Superintend

There is one more feature of this
compulsory education law to which
wish to allude before closing. 1t will
be found in section 6, which provides
that it shall be the duty of principals
and teachers to report to the attend
ance officer. the superintendent of pub
lie instruction, or the clerk of the
board of education, all cases Of
truancy or incorrigibility in their re-
spective schools.
How, in the name of heaven, the
author of this bill expected the super
intendent of public instruction to deal
with all cases of truancy Or incorrigi-
bility that may occur in the schools of
this state is beyond my comprehen-
sion. This section seems to allow an
option, and but one report of this
character has been made to this Office
up to this date.
I'm conclusion l have to say that I
shall not put this state to the expense
of printing any of the blanks that seem
to be required by this act, but l hope
that all county superintendent will
endeavor to enforce the law in it's real
spirit, and administer punishment in
all cases in which it is known to be
merited. The spirit of the law is
right, and I wish to see it faithfully
executed, but in some Of it's details it
is absurd and impossible of execution
in the manner which seems to be con-
templated"

TRADE DISAPPEARS.
Falling Off Of 80 Per Cent. at Winni-
peg Is Noted by Good Judges.

|
peg Is Noted by Good Judges.
WINNIPEG, Manitoba, July 81
observe what a Chicago man said to a
Winnipeg reporter last week about the
people of that city having ceased to
buy canned meat products, and l say
that the trade for the American brands
of canned meats in the past month has
fallen off in Winnipeg 80 per cent"
ager Of a large retail store. Continu-
ing, he said:
This is the season of the year when
the consumption of canned meats is
the heaviest, because of the cOnven-
fence Of this class of goods for picnic
purposes. Where this trade has al
ways been large in Winnipeg, it is
now nothing. Where my house sold
several cases of Chicago canned sau-
sage daily, it has fallen off to such an
extent that today we are not averaging
a single package daily. Canned roast
beef, a brand on which Chicago
packer has spent hundreds Of thou
sands of dollars in magazine advertis-
ing, is absolutely unstable in my
place.
1--WE had one large consignment re-
turned by railroad contractor in Sas-
katoon because the men refused to eat
Chicago meat. A big lumber camp
was stocked with this class of goods
and was forced to send into Winnipeg
and exchange all of it.
Americans who reside in the city
lead in their prejudice against the Chi
cago goods. Railroads which used a
huge quantity of canned fancy goods
of the American brands for their din
ing cars and hotels have suddenly be-
gun to use fresh stock. All this has
placed the home made products at a
premium. But railroad construction
gangs, lumberjacks, hunters and iso-
lated persons in new provinces are
absolutely forced to rely upon canned
foods largely
