PASSES AWAY

Mrs. John Enright of this city
died at her home on Thursday night,
February IA. Mrs. Enright had a
long sickness, and the last few
months she suffered greatly, tn.
cause being heart difficulty: She
was tenderly cared for by hel
husband and two daughters who
were constantly with her and
thought nothing task that minis
tered in any way to the comfort of
their loved one.
Josephine Hartnett was born in
county of Carey, Ireland, in 1889.
She came to America in 1854, and
lived in Glen Falls, New York,
where she married John Enright.
They came to Minnesota in 1871,
and settled on farm near the town
of Melrose, where they lived for
eighteen years; then going to Todd
county where they remained until
four years ago when they moved to
Sank Centre, bought a pleasan,
little home, and were in condition
to enjoy life and the ease they had
so richly earned.
Nine children God intrusted them
with, but four of them were taken
again to Himself thus giving a
large portion of sorrow into their
lives which was borne with Christian
faith and patience. The husband
and FIVE children are left with their
sorrow, and what can be a greater
sorrow than when wife and mother
is removed from the home? The
children are, Theodore Enright,
Mrs. John Boyle, and Morris
Enright, who live in the west, and
two daughters, Minnie and Josie,
who are living at home. The home
life will be carried on as we'll az
can be without the loved mother,
and the stricken husband will have
the loving care of his daughters.
Mrs. Enright's death was peace.
full and happy. She was a true
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1907-02-21

Christian woman, a devoted wife,
and a loving mother. What higher
place can woman attain to?
Surely the gates of heaven swing
wide when such one approaches,
and the angels welcome joyfully
such one to their company, and
the sorrowlng ones on earth can
look up through their tears and
say, "Not my will but Thine, o
Lord, be done"
The funeral was held from the
church of Our Lady of the Angels
on Monday morning at 10 o'clock,
Rev. FIR. O'Connor officiating.
The church was crowded with
sorrowing friends, many coming
from the towns where Mrs Enright
had lived, and from the country
around Sank Centre. The services
were very impressive. The solemn
nigh requiem Cor the dead was rem
dered by tie choir. Father
O'ConnOr preached an eloquent and
touching sermon, his subject being,
"rhe art of dying is to die well. "
''Blessed are the dead who die in
the Lord" He paid high tribute
to the departed one, and gave great
comfort to the mourning ones.
The floral offerings were beautiful,
one especially beautiful piece being
a pillow with the word "mother''
wrought in immortelles.
Beside her immediate family
Mrs. En,ight leaves three brothers
one at Westport, one in North
Dakota, and one in Idaho.
All these Borrowing ones have
the sympathy of large circle of
friends.

A NewBaby Boy

Mr.. and Mrs. Ulysis Coons re-
ceived valuable valentine on
February Is. Mrs. P. w. Johnson,
who is much sought after nurse,
was at Maple Lane farm visiting
with Mrs. Coons, and she noticed
the historical stork circling above
her head, and like the good angel
she. is straightway bethought her
self of the happiness that would
come to Maple Lane farm if she
could induce this useful bird to
alig ht. Having lived on a farm
herself, and being skilled in drum
ming down bees, she exerted all
her powers and charms and was
successful in her desires for the

delivered the goods" in the shape
of > beautiful baby boy which Mrs.
johnson thanked him for and
proudly carried into the house
where Mr.. and Mrs Coons joyfully
received it, and the grandfather,
great grandmother and several
uncles rejoiced with JOY uuspeak-
able. Mrs. johnson saws the won
derful boy is a remarkably wide
awake little fellow, and so far has
succeeded in keeping the rest of
the household wide awake.
Hearty congratulations are ex-
tended to this happy family.

be one investigation where it will not
be necessary to issue subpoenas or
employ detectives to search for books
then my guess is wrong, and if the
Investigators don't get awfully tired
before they finish the investigation
then don't know what l am writing
about.
A bill has been introduced requir-
ing mothers to give suck to their own
babes for at least month after they
are born if they are physically capable
of such action. If this bill becomes
a law it will be necessary to appoint a
"Mother's Milk Inspector with a
horde of assistants so whenever a
babe is brought into the world it will
be necessary for the Inspector or his
deputy to make an investigation of
the physical condition of the mother
and decide whether she is mixer
or not, and if he finds child less
than four weeks old sucking a bottle
or being fed with a spoon and mamma
is playing roots on the kid, to hale
her before the nearest magistrate, and
if convicted to chug her into the
calaboose and keep her there till she
gives down. Gee, wouldn't l like
this job. This bill strikes us as
idiOcy gone to seed. l have never
been a mother, but 1 have been a
father several times. My mother
raised nine boys on the bottle and
they have been fond of the bottle
ever since. My wife has raised five
children mostly on the breast.
1t is the sweetest and most sacred
joys of motherhood to feel the lips of
the babe she has borne in pain travail
tugging at her breast for life mater ial.
If law was attempted to be passed
preventing them from doing this the
old world would rock and reel on it's
foundation by the storm raised. OF
course there are unnatural mothers
and mothers of children born in shame
that abandon their babes, but all the
laws ever devised by lawmakers can
not prevent this. Legislators might
as we'll attempt to regulate the number
OF children in family, prescribe the
time and manner of courtship, limit
the number of times a disObedient
child should he spanked in given
period or under what conditions a
man should kiss his wife, as pass
this kind of legislation.
Why with all the great problems
that are before the legislature they
fritter away their time in this kind of
folly is beyond the comprehension OF

The mania for investigation anC

this legislature. There are many

however, that when the Legislature

the Minnesota Shippers and Re-

IMPROPER

It seems to us improper for the
Minnesota Editorial Association to
endorse or condemn any bill pend
ing: before the Legislature unless
the: directly affects their bust
ness. As we understand the As
sociation it is formed for social
purposes and to look after the
financial welfare of it's members,
and when it tries to censor in
dividual opinion it trancends it's
powers. You can't muzzle country
