Centreville. Richard Allen Lodge No.
"A, X. of p, had their annual sermon

A AFFAIR.

Rev. A. p. Pearson, at one time a
highly-respected minister of the Cos
pei in this city, became unconscious
in the supreme court room last Satur-
day when the sentence of II months
and 20 days, which he received in a
lower court some time ago, vas con-
frmed. 1t was thought that Mr.. Pear
son was a very sick mar and he was
taken to the hospital, where he recov-
cred. 1t seems that the authorities
we're not aware that he was under
sentence and allowed him to leave the
building. Mr.. Pearson's bondsman
promised to have him back to court
Monday, and he kept his word. Mon
day he began his term Of imprison
ment for defrauding a poor woman
out of $500. His time will be out il

REV. B. TAPPAN " YEARS OLD

On the 18th of March, Rev. B. Tap
pan, passed his seventy-seventh mile
stone. Sixty years ago he joined the
white Baptist Church in Cannon
County, under the passionate of Rev.
J.. M. D. Gates, a noted Baptist Divine
in that day. He has been largely in
strumental in founding the Baptist de-
nomination throughout this state,
along with Rev. Nelson G.. Merry and
other high churchmen of his day. The
lay was spent quietly. In the even
ing Mrs. Tappan and Mrs. G. H. Phil

after a pleasant repast, Bishop Phil

God for his long Christian life, with.

wards its sunset, may the influence OF
his past life be felt in the home,

IN MEMORY OF MRS. MATTE
HANDBOOK.
BY Mrs. Sarah LYtton.

BY Mrs. Sarah Lytton.
Thou hast left us, and forever,
The light of those sweet eyes
Will beam upon us never,
Till we meet above the skies.
Lies sunshine was around thee,
The world looked glad and bright.
The ties of love that bound thee
Might have checked thy spirits
flight.
But the bounds that earth enturneth
Are all too weak to stay,
When the far-off heaven shineth
The spirits upward way.
Thou hast left us, and forever,
Thy smile of quiet mirth;
Thy low sweet voice shall never
Soothe our aching hearts on earth.
The joys thy presence cherished
Like morning dreams have fed;
And a fair hope persisted
Upon thy narrow bed.
For the love that we have borne thee
Thy loss we need must weep;
Yet even while we mourn thee,
We envy thee thy sleeD.

St. Louis Worlds Fair: Recitals by
three of the finest organists in the United
States-Gaston Marie Dethier, Horatio
w. Parker and George w. Andrews-were
eiven at Festival Hall during the past
week. Mr.. Andrews evidenced an as
tonishing command of the immense in
strument, and apparently exhausted its
resources during the presentation of his
excellent programmes. Physical advan-
tapes in the way of "reach" simplifed
for him the many intricaces on the 81
qantic console and he worked up to
Great climax easily and consistently with
Careful attention to detail.

Mr.. Phil e. Reid, a ~thirty-third de-
gree Mason and a prominent business
man Of st. Paul, Mimi, spent several
days in the city last week en- route to
Hot Springs, Ark, for his health. Mr..
Reid was born here and lived In this
city during his youth, but upon reach
ing his majority, moved West where
he has been eminently successful in
business.
On his trip South, he stopped over
in Nashville for the purpose of ar
ranging some private business affairs
and looking into the record Of two or
three Nashville ball players. Mr.. Ried
has secured the rights to both of the
base ball parks in st. Paul while the
regular League team Is on tour and
has organized what is said to be one
of the strongest aggregations of semi
professional teams in America. He is
sole owner of the team and has no
doubt but that with his strict manage
ment his team will be able to out
class all of the white semi-professiOnals
of that section of the country. Mr.
Reid left the city Tuesday for the
Springs. While he had his eye or
about three players it has not been
learned whether or not he closed a
contract with any of them.
