In Memoriam.

Written For The HERALD.
Lines affectionately dedicated to DR.
Brabham on the death of his wife.)
I Oh! Angel of death thou hast taken away
The sweetest of earth's rare flowers,
And left our hearts sore, sad and lone,
And OIL such dreary hours.
We loved her so, her gentle smile
Would brighten the darkest day,
And when thy wings came futterins
near,
We shuddered and turned away.
Gone in the beautiful Spring of life
i From those who loved her well.
Gone from a world of sin and pain
Hid scenes of bliss to dwell.
We miss her in our mission work,
She was Jealous, kind and true;
We miss her in the Sunday-school,
And the league misses her too.
we miss her in the choir,
That sweet and gentle tore
Hss Joined the angel chorus
Around the Great White Throne.
Not dead, but only gone before,
rs To wait our coming on that shore,
Where sickness and sorrow enter not,
And partings are no more.
Then, Vance, don't let your heart be
weary,
rs Or grieve for your darling, absent dead
Don't let your fondest hopes be buried,
Down in that dark and narrow bed.
But look upward, press onward, faith the
star
To guide your feet up the mansions. Of
love,
And let hope whisper fondly when sad is
your heart,
OF the blessed reunion that waits you
above.
And when down the rolling river
You too float by thesu set lea,
Softly you'll enter the evening shadow
Into the light where she waits for thee
MRS. J. NJ. JENNINGS.

Thanksgiving Reading, Orville
Lawrence.
Supt. McCool selected for the
theme of his discourse, Head,
Heart and Hand, which, indeed,
seemed rather singular at first
thought, but which proved unus-
ually interesting. We cannot re-
frain from giving, at least, few
of the many golden thoughts pre-
sented: Struggles begin III child
hood, we have numberless diff
culties to surmount; but we ov.
ercome all by the cultivation of
these three faculties or organs.
The manner of cultivation rests
with you alone. You ask how?
Put your entire self into that
which you undertake; be willing
to sacrifice pleasures, ETC., that
you may accomplish your aim.
These three-the head, the heart
and the hand act in unison; and
let me impress upon you these
two things: First, any stagnant
or lifeless condition of mind is a
sin to yourself and those about
you; second, you have q master
whose name is duty and whose
task is usefulness. Be cultured,
be honorable, and above all, be
truthful. Perhaps you say, Res
olutions are easily made" 1t is
true, resolutions are easily made,
and it is easy for me to tell how
to make them; but it takes more
to carry them out: it takes de-
termination. Make an invento-
ry of yourself, as the business
man makes an account Of his bu-
siness at the end of each year.
The close of 1907 is drawing near.
You have thought often of the
success and failures of various
undertakings during the past
year, but have you thought once
of your life in the past year?
Have y@u strivcn 10 ,.SrH THh'v9
How have you cultivated these
three faculties? These are just
a very few of the things to ask
yourself when you make your in
ventory. Then profit by your
mistakes, and make better reso-
lutions for the coming year.
There is a struggle with every
thing, that counts, and our pro-
gress is marked by leaving the
weaklings. Do not for one re-
pulse forgo the purpose you in
tend. And in closing, we say be
thankful for the talents which
are yours to use. Thanksgiving
is nearing. Don't forget to count
your blessings. Strive to make
this life a grand sweet song.

After the reading and approx
al of the minutes of our last meet
ing, the program opened with a
song by the entire school, after
which our president, Forrest R.
Croft, delivered an excellent ad-
dress on the subject, BE a Mas
ter" the essence of which we
endeavor to record: THE world
needs masters. She has had ma
ny great masters in the past (sev-
eral of whom he mentioned) and
who will be the masters of the
future? Is it our privilege? |
say yes; there is nothing which
we cannot attain; our powers are
unlimited; we have only to fix
our purpose, then concentrate
our minds on that one purpose,
and it is possible. It is true, ma
ny instances come to our notice
of the failure of those who have
lost determination and grown
weary in their attempts, because
the results were so far in the dis
tance. Let me call your atten-
tion to plant life: as it springs
from the seed or spore it strives,
ofttimes with many hindrances,
to resemble it's own kind. He,
who makes plant life, also made
man and in the image of Himself.
Then, how sad it is when we lose
sight of the purpose for which
we were created. How sad when
we allow that ideal image, after
which we are to pattern, to van
ish from our sight. Then strive
to attain and retain that undaun-
ted determination which makes
great leaders, and we have all
become masters when we have
achieved the highest in our
sphere. "

block his way to the nomination.
Foraker is brilliant, but spiteful.
He knows how popular the War
Secretary is, and that the Presi-
dent is favorable to Taft's NOM
ination. This fills the Senator
with indignation. What bust
ness has any man, especially a
man weighing 25O pounds in his
slippers, to be a favorite son of
Ohio, rather than the twice elec-
ted Senator?
Will Foraker be able to block
Taft's nomination? Hardly. He
may keep him from having a
united delegation from Ohio, but
that will not block his nomina-
ton.
VIM. Taft is all right. He will
get there in spite of Senator For
aker., So mote it be.

the war-path, and it puzzles ma
ny of us to know what is tn,
thing he seeks-his objective.
He tells us in his recent lette
that he is not seeking the sena
torship just now. And we be
lieve him, for the time is no
here to fight for his reelection
to the Senate. But mark that
''just now" and put it down fol
a fact that later on the Senator
will be hot after the senatorship,
Oh, no, he is not seeking that
honorable place just now!
What then? The Senator tells
US that he is seeking the presi-
deney of the United States. He
wants the Republican convention
to put him in nomination next
year. The Senator is somewhat
over plain in his statement of
what he wants, and creates the
impression that he is less than
candid.
We cannot we'll blame him for
wanting the chief magistracy of
this great nation, for it is an
honorable position worthy the
ambition of the lOftiest charac-
ter. 1t is better to be president
of the United States than to be
king in any country, because, af-
ter spending a few years in Of
flee one gets relief by the cleo
ton of someone else; whereas a
king must be worried in Office
until the shuffling off his mortal
coil. Many brilliant American
statesmen have sought the great
office, and therefore we must not
blame Senator Foraker for seek
ing the same Office that Webster
and Clay and Blaine sought, but
sought in vain. Forsooth, the
seekers for this Office, if they
show too much willingness to get
there, seldom capture the great
prize. It generally goes to the
man more coy in his seeking.
Foraker is after the presiden-
cy, so he says. And we must
admit that like Webster and Clay
and Blaine, he possesses many
qualities fitting for the place, but
like them, too, his ambition will
not land him there just now.
Does he really seek the office
Just now? Is he not after some
thing else? After something
else, we trow. He certainly must
know that his chances for the
nomination are far from flatter-
ing. And even if by some cap
tivating oratorX he could induce
the national convention to put
him in nomination, the Republi-
can voters of the country would
fail to ratify the nomination.
Senator Foraker is not as popu-
lar as he was a few years ago.
He has been fighting the Admin
istration too much for his own
promotion. The great Stephen
Douglas failed to reach the White
House, because he had been fight
ing the administration of James
Buchanan, and how can Foraker
hope to succeed after fighting the
popular administration of Theo-
dore Roosevelt? Does Foraker
imagine himself more popular
than Theodore? The Senator
knows better.
After the presidency? Believe
It not. friends. That is not the
real objective. What then? VIZ

Reports this morning from yari- ous sections of the city show that the baby cyclone did more damage than was at first believed A small cottage on Missouri street, occu- pied by Hal Burton, negro, was completely stripped of it's roofing and his furniture and household goods soaked with water. Other cottages in the same section of the city were damaged more or less.
 The most serious damage yet re- ported is that at the First Presby- terian church building. A large smokestack, used to relieve the fur mace under church building, was blown down, falling upon the roof of the edifice. The slate roof was badly broken and large hole left in it. The interior of the church was damaged from water. The damaged roof will be repaired im- mediatel;.
 A window at the home of H. A. Mccoy. No. 1901 West Second avenue, was left open and the wind blew a lot of ornaments and trinkets from one of the rooms 1 into. the yard, damaging them. At various residences, which were vigorously shaken from the walls, pictures fell and dishes were brok- en in closets. A freakish incident was noticed at the home of H. I. , Holderness, No. S10 West Second avenue. A lot of articles in a i closet adjoining one of the bed- rooms, were blown from the apart ment onto a bed. across the room, but 'no damage was done.
 Fences, billboards and outhouses were blown down on many of the streets about the city and large trees, some of them highly prized by prOperty-OWnerS as shade trees, were uprooted. Shingles were blown from smaller cottages and leakages resulted.
 The downtown streets during the night were literally flooded with water and persons coming to the city today from neighboring planta- lions say that the country roads are almost impossible. Much dam- age was done in the country dis tricts by' the stotm. Many creeks Dnd bayous are swollen out of
