Death of Mrs. L. j. Warner.

The tender chords of sympathy
were indeed strained in the hearts
OF our people when it was an
nounced Tuesday night that Mrs.
Il j Warner had passed TO her
reward. She had not been sick
very long, and her many friends
little thought that the end of her
life was go close at hand. Her de
mise was the result of premature
birth.
The character of person is
best described by what the neigh
bors think of one. There is not a
woman in Logan that is more be-
loved by her neighbors than Mrs.
Warner. She had big family of
seven children and gained the
high regard of all Ter surround
ings by the pleasing control she
had of her children, and how
nicely the little ones were raised
and taught, The higl est compli-
ment paid to such one is that
she was good mother and a
good neighbor." No person in the
community got along nicer with
big family than Mrs Warner. She
was always pleasant, genial and
jolly. Her neighbors, as "a unit,
speak we'll of her, and the sym
pathy of the entire community
goes oat to her husband and the
band of little children that so
much need her kindly care. Her
death is one of those happenings
that bring sorrow and sympathy
to the hearts of all our people.
Rose Fl. (Mallon) Warner was
born February 10, 1870, died July
8, 1907, at 8;20 p. m. She leaves
a husband and seven children to
mourn their loss. The funeral
services will be at the home, Fri
day morning at 10 O'Clock, under
the auspices of the Ladies of the
Nj Maccabees. Religious services by
Rev. Wilson, of the First Presby-
Lerian church.

London's Health.

has been saving of 1854 lives, rep

has been continued fall in the Lon
don death rate, which is now nearly
thirty per cent. lower than at the
coming into operation of the Public
Health (London) act, 1891.
Out of population of 4,684,794
the actual number of deaths during
the year was 70,442, or 15.1 per

A Legend Of Ireland.
BY BOLTON HALL.

There was . King in Billigoland
IN the old days that had three sons,
and fine lusty fellows they were.
Now, one day the three fell disputina
as to which Of them should be king
when their father was dead; and
from words they came to blows, till
they were all black and blue.
After they had hammered the light
out OF one another, they agreed tc
leave the matter to their father.
But the old man had seen before
how referees fare at the baseball
games, and he would not decide; sc
they fell to fighting again till they
had hammered some sense into one
another. and then agreed that each
was to go his way for three years
and learn what business he liked, and
when they should return the father
was to try them, and the best man
was to have the Kingdom.
After three years they met again,
Ind the father said to the youngest,
What have you learned?" And he
said, I've learned to be a farmer
Let's see you raise two crops for
your brothers," said the King. Sc
he raised two crops with half the la.
Dor and twice the produce as any
mans in Ireland.
